liAFOLLETTJB AND ROOSKVEIJD
IN OHIO
, A Columbus, O., dispatch, carried
"by tho Associated Press follows:
Progressive republicans of Ohio met
recently, formed a permanent or
ganization, adopted a declaration of
progressive principles, but voted, 52
to 32, not to give their indorsement
to United States Senator Robert M.
La Follette, as a candidate for the
presidential nomination, After re
fusing the indorsement of the league
the delegates voted, 81 to 11, in
favor of a resolution as a personal
expression of the delegates naming
Sonator La Follotto as "the living
embodiment of the principle of the
progressive movement and the logi
cal candidate to carry them to a
successful fruition."
The vote came after a three hours'
debate on the floor of the convention,
and was on the adoption of an
amendment to the report of the
resolutions committee which had
been unanimously in favor of not
naming a candidate. Glfford Pinchot,
who declared that he spoke only for
himself and in no way for Colonel

Itoosdvelt, and Former Secretary of

loaders in the debate against giving
any candidate an indorsement.
Sonator Works of California and
later Senator Clapp of Minnesota
wore vigorous In urging that the
Ohio progressives concentrate thoir
efforts in working, for the election of
Senator La Follette. Nearly every
delegates expressed himself repeated
ly in the debate.
The vote was taken immediately
after an appeal by Common Pleas
Judge R. N. Wanamaker of Akron,
who declared he had made the first
antl-Taft speech in the state and who
appealed to the delegates not to go
into the presidential campaign by
going against the advice of such
leaders of -the national progressive
league as Pinchot and Walter
Houser, secretary of the national
league and manager of the La Fol
lette campaign. The resolution
which was adopted, and which had
been submitted to the resolutions
committee by Pinchot, Houser and
John D. Fackler, temporary chair
man of the Ohio organization, read
as follows:
"We are opposed to the renomina
tion of President Taft. We hereby
declare it to be the determined pur
pose of the Ohio progressive repub
lican league to work in harmony and
unison to nominate a progressive re
publican president, recognizing as
fellow progressives all who hold the
principles for which we stand,
whether it be for tho presidential
nomination of Robert M. La Follette
or Theodore Roosevelt or any other
progressive republican.
"We assert the essential unity of
the progressive movement Ihrough
out the entire state and nation.
"We favor the election of dele
gates who will favor the nomination
of a candidate who will fully repre
sent the progressive principle."
to take legal Action against them to
recover some of th money he lost.
Instead, he went into bankruptcy.
"Exposure of tho gambling In
women's homes at the time the police
Ordered it stopped recently was only
a drop in the bucket compared with
what might be said of it if every
thing were told," said the lawyer.
"Half a million dollars would not be
gin to pay back to the victims what
has been lost in half a dozen. resi
dences during the last few years.
The system worked as near perfect
as it could have been. The women
went only for 'live' ones and played
the game carefully, so as to make
It sure and impossible of betrayal.
The man who told me of how he was
duped knows all about professional
gamblers and their methods, and
oven he did not find out what he was
up against until he had lost nearly
$10,000 in a week."
Most profitable to the women who
promoted the rsheme, according to
the informant, was a man "capper"
whose nam is well known in th Itot
of tho city's professional gamblr
He holds forth in the South Side "r4
light" "district, where he is proprietor
of an all-night restaurant. Through
his aid the women were thrown intov
touch with the $7,000 "live one."
Meantime other victims wer
brought in through tho agency of
other woman "cappers" who operated
at down-town hotels, and, aided y
smiles, perfume, fashionable gowna
and fascinating manners, effected a
complete disguise as to their real
purpose.
"In addition to tho card 'juggling
accomplishments of the women and a
few men whose professional services
they frequently found it to their in
terest to enlist when a particularly
wary victimwas being handled, they
had provided themselves with electri
cally controlled dice tables," said tho
lawyer. ."With electrical batteries
and loaded dice it was possible to
play the .game in an absolute 'sure
thing' manner."

FLEECING "LIVE" GAMBLERS
Special dispatch to the Cincinnati
Enquirer: Chicago, 111., November
16. Sensational disclosures, show
ing the city-wide rami'flcations of
Sheridan Road's society gambling
and laying bare the methods by
which certain women reached down
town, and even into the South Side
"red light" district, for their victims
became public as an aftermath
to the order of Chief of Police Mc
Weeney 10 days ago, demanding that
gambling in women's residences on
the North Side be stopped.
The story, which is offered as
proof that the social gambling was
far from the innocent little game
that the women attempted to defend,
and that within the last two years It
yielded for its various feminine pro
moters more than half a million dol
lars, much of which was obtained
from men lured to their homes, came
from a prominent Chicago criminal
lawyer, who learned of the scheme
from a client who fell victim to the
extent of $7,000 and a collection of
diamonds in one evening.
Requesting that the name of his
client be withheld, the lawyer con
sented to relate the method of the
woman gamblers and pointed out
how' its wholo working was as precise
in every detail as the "capper" and
"bring-in" systems of the best pro
fessional gamblers the city has ever
known.
The story of his client's ex
periences, he declared, -indicates that
unfair methods in manipulating the
cards and the dice at some North
Side homes were not uncommon. So
cleverly was the "juggling" of the
pasteboards accomplished, he insists,
that one of the men, a steady loser
and a professional gambler himself,
was not able to "beat" the game. To
escape the humiliation which public
ity would give as to the way ho was
