Louis Glass Guilty, Jury's Unanimous Verdict on the First Ballot
/ TpHE verdict of the Jury vindicates the city of San Fran
'•• cisco in the eyes of the world and demonstrates beyond
question the high standard of citizenship that here, prevails —
Statement of Assistant District Attorney Francis JvHeney.
SCHOENBERG IS
FORCED OUT OF
LOTTERY TRUST
Friends Besiege His Home
Kand Shame Him Into
Confession
HE ADMITS HIS GUILT
King, of Confidence- Men
Fears "Reputation" Is
Suffering
SELLS HIS INTEREST
[queals" on Metzger, For
mer Associate in Crim
inal Business
Louis Schoenberg, head of the
lottery trust, has resigned from
the management of the notorious
M. & F. company. Jle says he
has sold all of his interest in the
swindling business and claims he
Is not now connected, directly or
indirectly, with any lottery oper
ations. He' confessed last night
his former connection with the
fraud- His confession was full
and complete. It was, in fact,
more of a "squeal" % than a confes
sion, and as he ran to cover out
of the reach, he hoped, of the
dragnet which Chief of Police
Anderson was drawing around
him, he shouted the name of
"Metzger" after him and laid the
blame of the business at his secretive
doors. Scboenberg was willing to tell
all he knew of the M. & F. company,
which he abandoned after having
been made rich at the expanse of
10.000 swindled dupes. He admitted he
"had made enough." and that pie pres
ent campaign brought about by The
Call's exposure and the actfvlty of th«
police were making the business un
profitable; he admitted, also, that
•"drawings" based on the numbers of
the: Honduras and Mexican lotteries
had been held after those foreign con
cerns had EQne out of business. He
admitted that not later than two weeks
ago such, a drawing had. taken place
in this city, and he said that, so far
as he knew, another drawing, would be
pulled off again In the near future If
the police did not confiscate the tick
ets and property of the Illicit business.
Nothing could have been more arro
gant than Schoenberg's frank admis
sion of tils former connection with the
M. & F. company. He freely admitted
its unlawful character, tacitly con
fessing himself a criminal, and de
clared that his principal reason for
getting out at this time was the fact
that the exposure of his associations
with the vicious gambling concern. was
hurting his credit as a real" estate
dealer and his reputation as a business
man. The' time had come when he
could no* longer pose as a decent mem
ber of the community; and he stood re
vealed as the lawjess dealer in phony
lottery tickets. Besides, his friends
had been importuning him to quit.
There were 15 at his home last night,
he said, urging him to get out of , the
"dirty business." He conceded the truth
of the rumor that the exposure of his
relations with the octopus like trust
had worn on the nerves and health of
his family, in short, he was shamed
into quitting by his friends and fright
ened into quitting by the. police.
SCHOENBKRG WON'T TELk
But' he would not say to whom«-he
had sold his share *In the company.
"It is not a corporation," he said, "and
I will not tell who bought \me out.
Neither will I telKwho are the others
Interested with Metzger in the game,
but it is" going on Just the same, and
there will be another' drawing; within
a few days." >
Schoenberg's experience with the
tempters of chance was euch as to
convince him that there would still be
an army of "suckers" to go against the
game and ; scan the lottery lists 'with
eager eye* for approximation prizes.
The fact that he had confessed that
