NO TENDERLOIN
FOR ST. LOUIS
Putting the Lid on the Dives and
Women Are Being Driven to
Other Cities.
ST. LOUIS, March 5.—All vice
houses in St. Louis were to be closed
tonight at midnight, according to the
"gradual elimination plan" of the
Board of Police Commissioners, who
started the movement to clear out the
tenderloin early in the year. About
235 inmates are expected to be driv
en from the houses tonight.
The St. Louis policy began with
clamping down the lid tight on the
selling of liquor in the tenderloin.
Next came a scedule of “early clos
ing,” and forbidding music in the
houses. The last big movement of
the "gradual plan” was the forcing of
the telephone companies to remove all
telephones The women have, in the
majority of cases, gone to Chicago
and other large cities.
