NEW YORK. —Rival gangsters fought
a revolver battle from automobiles
on primary day, September 16, in
. broad sunlight, at the corner of Slzty-
I fifth street and Broadway, Just as the
; matinee crowds were pouring out of
the theaters. The police managed ip
get four of the combatants, and the
car which they had used in the shoot
' lng affray was found to contain lists
of voters in six election districts, sys
tematically arranged to enable repeat
ing.
It was the gang in the service of the
politician, Just as 1q the Rosenthal
murder the gang had been ii the serv
ice of a high police official. The
gang serves those who pay It or can
, protect It' against the law. For $5
It will detail a "kid" to black a man's
eyes; for SSO you can have a man
stabbed, and "doing the big Job" will
cost you more than SSOO or SI,OOO If
you are properly vouched for to the
gang leader by some one with a "big
pull."
The man with the "big pull" Is al
ways a politician or a gambler, writes
Henry N. Hall In the Sunday New
York World. The politician's alliance
with the gangster Is as close today,
if not as open, as when a district
leader on the eve of an Important elec
tion gave an Interview to newspaper
men with one foot on a box from which
hie lieutenants were distributing 600
lead-loaded blackjacks to "the boys"
for use the next day, or when a politi
cal leader —now one of New York's
most distinguished representatives In
the congress of the United States—
went over to New Jersey to testify un
der oath that "Monk" Eastman was a
reputable business -man and an other
wise desirable citizen.
Difficult Problem.
There is no more difficult problem
in American civic life' today than the
elimination of the gang. There are
three reasons for this. The first Is
that the American public is indifferent
to crime. There is no place In the
world where the man In the street who
goes about his own business and keeps
clear of the underworld Is as safe in
his person as he Is here, and the
result Is that unless he himself, or
some one he knowe personally, Is the
victim of a crime, he reads about these
things In the paper with an Interested
complacency not unlike the feelings he
derives from a thrilling movlng-plcture
show. Gangs, gangsters. Black Hand
crimes and bomb outrages are accept
ed as among the things Incidental to
life In a big city, and It is Impossible
to arouse anything like public Indig
nation over their presence.
The second reason Is that the Inter
ests to which the gangs are useful—
the politicians, the gamblers and those
who grow rich In the underworld—are
so powerful that they are able to pro
tect those who are of service to them.
It Is only In exceptional cases, when
public feeling Is outraged by some

A

Watch almost any gang of small
boys playing in the streets of the ten
ement dlatricts. They always have a
leader, it matters not what they are
doing or to what mischief they are
up, there Is always one who is braver,
stronger, more resourceful than the
rest. He will grow into a man of ac
tion. He will make a 'success of life
If his home Influences and early oppor
tunities give him a fair chance; but
if he goes wrong he Is the material or
which the gangster is made. It Is so
easy for him to go wrong.
As he gets older he may commit
some little breach of the law that
other boys will take pride In as a
proof of his daring. The corner sa
loonkeeper patronizes him and mar
shals him with other* of his kind.. He
gets his Introduction Into the under
world and meets real gangsters upon
whom the women of the etreets fawn
and who nod knowingly to the "cop"
on the corner. If he Btumbles Into a
scrape the saloonkeeper or one of his
newly acquired friends will appeal to
some ward politician for bail, lawyers
and the necessary "pull" to get him
out of trouble. Then he sticks to his
friends, and gangdom has won another
recruit.
Irrepressible Conflict.
All this Is perfectly well known to
the churches, the settlement workers
and all the "reformers," and many And.
strange are the ways of those who
would lead youth In the paths of right
eousness. There Is going on all the
time in this as In every other great
city a constant tussle between the
forces of good and the forces of evil.
Both are reaching down into the
struggling mass of upgrowlng human
ity, seeking for new recruits.

Flsld for Boy Scouts.
Only one organization really seems
to be properly equipped for attracting
to Itself the boys who but for Its exist
ence .would grow up to be gangsters,
and that Is the Boy Scouts. It Is Just
the kind of thing that appeals to high
spirited boys and it Is doing a most
wonderful work In making them Into
manly youths who will grow up to be
good and useful citizens. There la a
striking snmensos about the gangster's
unwritten code and the laws of the
scoots. v-f,
"Thou shalt not squeal," U the first
law of the gangster. The gangster's
honor Is to he trusted In gangdom. The
first law of the Boy Scouts Is "A
scout's honor la to ho trusted." If be
breaks his honor by telling a lie he
ceases to ho a scout. If the gangster
squeals the penalty Is death.
Next to not squsellng, the law of the
gang is that Its members shall ho
"hunky." A scout's second law la loy
alty to |ils country and his friends.
"He must stiok to them through thick
and tain against anyone wno U wetr I
etftemy." And so on. A scoot must he
brave and daring and must obey or
ders without qusstion and ne must
never sulk. All of which things are
expected of the gangster.

The young Jew "who goes wrong be
comes a thief, a "dip," Or pickpocket,
or else he gambles—generally with
more or less success —in which case
he hires gangsters to protect his prof-
Its. Here and there on the lower East
side a gang of young Jews will get up
a fake lottery and a'ell their worthless
tickets to the small shopkeepers, who
know that refusal to "come across"
with the 60 cents demanded would lead
to a stone being pitched through their
store window alight, or some wanton
damage being dtnie to their goods. It
Is a cheap form of blackmail.
Leaders Who Play Safe.
There are several gangs In New
York with a membership of more than
a thousand, but more and more the
men at the head of them keep their
hands free of actual crime. The lead
er is the man with brains and money,
and above all with the confidence of
the politician, who has enough Influ
ence to smooth out the serious trou
bles Into which his followers may fall.
In case of a murder or killing It is
the general rule for the actual mur
derer to be safely hidden away while
the arrest Is brought about of some
other member of the gang, who, on
trial, will be able to, put in a perfect
"He Will Attend to That When Hs
• Gets Out-"
defense, or who will have to be re
leased by the police for lack of evi
dence.
Although it is literally true that
there are In New York today dozens of
gangs and thousands of gangsters, the
great majority are without real stand
ing In the underworld. At a conserva
tive eatlmate there are, however, from
twenty to twenty-flve recognized
gangs, with a membership of
6,000 men, from which politicians and
gamblers and others requiring their
services can get thugs, repeaters and
strong-arm men for any purpose, from
carrying an election or breaking a
strike to securing the commission of
crime against ths persons or property
of citizens.
Settle Their Own Disputes.
Gangdom recognizes this state of
outlawry and It always settles Its own
disputes. The recognised forces of
law and order—the police—are never
called upon to listen to Its complaints.
If a gangster falls in any feud, If be
has been shot or stabbed, he never
give* the name of bis assailant "He
will attend to that when he gets out"
ir bo dies he knows that bis friends
will avenge him, and often In New
York hospitals when the police have
vainly tried to get a bounded gang
ster to "squeel" some member of his
gaag will call at the hospital, bend
over the little white cot and only a
tightening of his jaw tells (he police
men on guard that the visitor has
learned the name of the man who is to
pay for the gangster's death.

NEW YORK—The Coffee King bas
found a consort. He bas allied
himself to the royal house of
sugar. Almost you might say It Is a
marriage of commodities—some one
hlnU at a trust—a new and subtle way
of evading Uncle Sam's Sherman law.
Perish the thought—the commodity
phrase of the alliance Is a poor coinci
dence. The coffee king—his name Is
Herman Slelcken—has felt Uncle
Sam's teeth over that coffee valorisa
tion scheme of tils. It Is not so long
ago that be was accused of tbe blgh
crime of advancing tbe cost of the
breakfast coffee of tbe American peo
ple one-quarter of a cent a cup. Ail
to his own and Arbuckle's and Mor
gan's, and a lot of Brazilians' advan
tages. No more of It for lilm.
Besides, marriage and business are
two different propositions—at least
they are to a quite romantic person
like Coffee King Slelcken, who only
thinks of coffee and railways and
high finance about* eight months a
year. The other third of bis time he
Is a connoisseur of roses. A collector
of rare blossoms, he haa at Baden-
Baden one of the loveliest of all rose
gardens. And when he Is not super
intending the skilful art of his many
gardeners be Is being godfather and
foster-father In general to the pictur
esque little German spa in which he
spends his summers.
Well Called the Rose King,
What interest could a princess of

In a mere coffee king? There-are so
many commodity monarcbs ID Amer
ica— monarchs of ice, of zinc, or salt,
or eoke, or of caramels. And all that
most of them have Is—Just money.
The princess baa so many millions
of her own that money Is almost a
vulgarity to her. But In Baden-Baden
Herman Slelcken Is a real roee king,
a gentleman bountiful, and he lords
It In a palatial villa surrounded by de
lightful gardens. Why, then, drag la
coffee?
Undoubtedly It was the romantic

Surely It waa tbe enchantment of

There are 10.004 roee bushes In 1M

It Is but a step from the rose gar

| Do you wonder now? -Now will 700
be aurprlaed that It waa a quick, a
vivid and lmpetuoua wooing that do

Indeed all their color and frsgrsaee

Slelcken became his wary, humoroo*
self again. Ope cannot, when one la
grand seigneur o( Baden-Baden, keep
one'a name eut of the paper—bat aa
little aa possible about the wedding.
Here was a chance to surprise certain
New Yorkers who, having no Imagina
tion, thought the coffee king wadded
to their own old fool game of moo ay
grubbing. With what his daring and
reaourcas bad already won—why that
coffee valorisation affair waa one of
the blggeat coupa ever pulled off—two

the planters, and Stelckaa to the roe
cue, had engaged seventy-live
from the New York, London and Qer
man banker*, bought it all up and
doled It out at price* higher than ever.
Why, a man who could do that could
do anything. And had he not crossed

might be as great aa Morgan If—wall,
if he'd go on. 0( course he'd go on.
It waa to gat a rise out of theee

young Slelcken kept down the news
of hla marriage to the barest an
