SEEKING A GOOD LAWYER MOfcSCOW SAVES MAJORITY Great Strategic Movement Against floating" PoolrobmEnxls in Cap ture of Qnly Fourteen Out , - of .200- "Excursionists. CHICAGO, Aug.. 3, Gambler? intent upon playing "the 'races and policemen determined to prevent all racetrack betting on the high seas' furnished to day on Lake Michigan an unique and spectacular gambling raid. The police and gamblers raced around the lake, ilrst into Michlgau"watcr, then close to the shores pf Illinois and then Into the Jurisdiction of Indiana; the -on seeking to escape and the police deter mined to capture them at all hazards, The net results of the day for tharpo llce were the capture of 11 weary marine gamblers, who floated ashore-at South Chicago in a launch. All of th others, after a hot chase by the pollen in a lumbering Are tug, escaped to In diana harbor, Indiana, and made their way ashore outside of the Jurisdiction of the Chicago police. - " Chief of Police Collins said today that he would no longer permit -the op eration of the floating pooTrob&j.. He asserted that he would arrb&.'Ail thw gamblers when they attempted 'tq board it, claiming that they were about to commit an illegal act, which -brought them - within police Jurisdiction. Tin gamblers circumvented the Chicago po lice at the outset by causing the steam er City of Traverse to be run out Into the lake into the waters of the Stat of Indiana, where she lay all through the morning. Large details of police were placed on shore, guarding ap proaches to all of the docks from which the gamblers might make their way to the lake. Steal a March on Police. .It was the expectation of the authori ties that the betting frt.ternity would leave Chicago on the City of Traverso, but Instead of this, a small excursion steamer, named the Eagle, had bn chartered, and the gamblers, walking past the police, embarked and started for the City of Traverse, which was rolling around in midlake. The polio were powerless to intercept th 'ex cursionists." as they called themselves, and with deep chagrin watched them sail away to place their money on the races. The announced programme of the man agers of the floating poolroom was that all passengers would be landed at the foot of Ninety-second street. In South Chicago, where the Calumet Blver empties' Into Lake Michigan. Chief Collins, balked in his attempt to prevent the sailing of the gamblers on the Eagle, transferred hi9 force to Ninety-second street and posted them along the shore in such a manner that it would have been .practically im possible for any- man from the City of Traverse or the. Eagle- to set.rfoqt.ion the shore" and 'escape arrest. 't't ..' ' ' ' Escape Out f a 'Trap. ' Later In the day the Eagje steamed into the harbor at -South Chicago, loaded with 200 men. who were anxious to reach the shore. As soon'as the boat was" well in side of the first bridge the 'bridge swung beh,ind;lt.. With escape to the lake cut oft by he bridge, and no possible chance of a safe landing On shore, the case of the gamblers for a time, looked desperate. The Eagle :clrcled around and around in the harbor, tooting its whistle in frantic fash Ion for the bridgetender to turn the bridge so It could steam' back Into the lake. The police stood on the shore and laughed, feeling confident that It was only a question of time before the passengers of the Eagle would be In their power. A small, insignificant mud scow hap pened along at this critical moment, how ever, and blew Its whistle as a signal for the bridge to open. The bridgetender was compelled to "swing the bridge, and the Eagle, planting its bovq squarely in the stern of the "mud scow, crowded in closely as it. passed through the bridge, and then made a run for the open lake and freedom. ' As soon as the police discovered the ap proach of the mud scow and saw that the bridge must open, they made a rush .for the -fire tug Yosemite and by the time the Eagle was entering the waters of the lake the tug was tearing after it, loaded down with policemen... The .Eagle,- however, steadily drew, away from the tug, and, after a run of ten minutes, the police gave up the .chase. The Eagle landed at Indiana harbor, Its passengers returning to Chicago by train. One Launch Load Taken. Before the arrival of the Eagle at South Chicago a small launch named the Pan ther came In, bearing a number of gam blers from the City of Traverse and sev eral fishermen. All the passengers of the Panther were lined up on the pier and compelled io stand In a heavy rain while the police-weeded out the fishermen-from the "excursionists," and 14 men who could not prove that they had been Ash ing were loaded into the patrol wagon and carried to the police station. The gamblers who returned to Chicago this evening declared that, even though the police had arrested all the passengers of the Eagle, they would- have found It impossible to prove a case against them, as the wireless apparatus refused to work throughout the day. and not a message wasrreceived and hot a bet was made. WHITEWASH ON INSURANCE Continued from First" PageO District Attorney's closest friends said the other day: Jerome Is After Bijr Fish. "Jerome believes that the situation in the Equitable demands that a number of highly respected citizens take up their residence in Jail. He is trying now to dis cover whether ho has the evidence o put .them there. If he has;, he will strike, re jgardless of who-may -got hurt For Jer ome has- no entangling political alliances whatever. "Mr, Jerome is convinced that Hyde is not so much to blame as . people make out. Hyde is a man of meager mental abilities, and had the idea that he could do. whatever, he wanted .in the- Equitable because he owned a. majority of the stock. This idea was carefully fostered by other persons, who were "perfectly willing that Hyde, should have, all the public evidences of 'authority, so long as they were able to loot the company as they , desired. Mr. Jerome is convinced that the crookedness goes far beyond Hyde, and he knows who the men are who are to blame.

Aristocracy means lineage and brains. Here well, it means anything from bad whisky to Standard Oil." Mr. Watterson said he had read the accounts of the scandal ,.ln the Depart ment of Agriculture, and added: "I have often wondered hoW so many scientific men connected with the" Gov ernment at comparatively small sal aries could live so well.

Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, said that under the present circumstances It was impossible to discuss the changes In the Far East that might be brought about by the war, or changes that It might be desirable to Introduce in the Anglo-Japanese alliance when it was thought right to renew it.

If the Chinese were unable to finance the proposed railway through the Yangtse Valley to the Red Stone Basin. In the Province of Szochuan, to apply first to British and American capital to build It- Great Britain, he said, was now negotiating with France for- the Joint con struction of the line.

LOOK TO AMERICA FOR HELP Russian Jews Want to Stay In Rus sia, but as Freemen. WASHINGTON. Aug. 3. Dr. Dan ziger, formerly United States Consul at Madrid, has arrived here to lay boforo the Department of Commerce and La bor memoranda concerning the condi tion of the Jews abroad, the Informa tion being gathered at the request of the department for use In the Bureau of Immigration In dealing with that class of immigrants. "In Germany, England and Russia," said Dr. Danziger. In reviewing his ob servations, "what struck mo most nota bly was tho hopeful views the Jews take of America. The people I met were hoping the President would take the opportunity that presented itself to induce the Russian Government to grant them freedom, or at least to give them equal rights in Russia. Many of the Russian Jews do not want to leave that country. They love their country, in spite of the terrible oppres sion that has been brought upon them by the Russian Government. "I found a terrible condition among the Russian Jews who have gone to England to come to this country. The steamship companies are afraid to bring them here, for fear they will be declared paupers, with the result that the steamship companies would have to take them back to England. In or der to refuse them passage when they have the money to (pay their way, the companies invent excuses. They de clare that they are suffering from some kind of disease. The fact Is, the Jews there are powerful fellows who have had their muscles trained on farms -In Russia. They arenot .only farmers, but mechanics of all kinds." 'Dr. Danziger expressed tho opinion that the South offered an opening for the Jews, If the Interests there were anxious to obtain- while labor for' farm work. Moody Looks Into Cotton Scandal. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. In answer to an Inquiry concerning the cotton leak investigation, the Attorney-General said that District Attorney Beach was quite able to properly conduct the Investigation without assistance, but as this was a matter of personal houseclean Ing of the Administration, It seemed fitting that the head of the Department of Jus tice should assume a personal "responsi bility In the matter.

IT COULD NOT BE RATIFIED State Department Anxious to Define Classes or Chinese Admissible, but Senate "Would Surely Kill the Treaty. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. (Special.) In speaking today of the prospects for a Chinese exclusion treaty, .a high official of the State Department expressed most pessimistic -views. He said that, while the Administration was anxious and will ing to make a treaty with China which would more clearly interpret the present exclusion laws, and would partlcularly set forth what classes of Chinamen were entitled to admission into the United States, there seemed to be no prospect that the Senate would ratify such treaty, no matter how broad Its terms. According to this official, the trouble with the exclusion law is that it is not sufficiently clear as to what Chinamen should be admitted, while it sets forth ex plicitly the classes that are not entitled to admission. The State Department would like to see this matter cleared up, but In view of the known antagonistic at titude of the Senate In regard to any exclusion treaty whatsoever. It Is not an ticipated that any effort would be made In tho near future to make such a treaty with the Chinese government. AT THE HOTELS. Tho Portland H. F. McCann and wife, SIlss M.
