Constable Greer was busy heading a movement to break up these games, especially on Sundays, when he was stopped. â€" He resigned. Chicf Wilson told The Advance last week that there was no thought of stopping the raidâ€" ing of Sunday card games, but he adâ€" mitted that. he had said that no fees should be paid for any assistance. Even the Chief‘s version amounts to a practical protection of the foreign eamblers. Outside police can not be expected to give assistance and spend their time at late or early hours for nothing, and one man can not raid an alién gambling game. The Chief, of course, says he could do it alone. But The Advance will believe this only when it sees the Chief get some of these card games ‘‘all on lus own.‘‘ He hasn‘t got one yet.
