From Pittsburgh Streets
SPEAK-EASIES RAIDED.
Beer and Other Liquors Found in Three Different Places.
Police Captain Denniston and Lieutenant Scott closed up three "speak-easies" yesterday about noon. One of them was run by Anthony Manion at 218 Penn avenue. Manion was on the police force about a year ago. The second house raided was at 18 Diamond street, or, rather, in Chicken alley, a court running off that street. The house is rented by Mrs. Marie Carrol and her sister, Sadie Lightner. A sub-tenant is Bessie McCutcheon, in whose room a lot of liquor was found.
The third place was that of Morris Gilbert, a Russian Jew, who is a peddler, and lives in the rear of 44 Tunnel street.
