Big graft accused in reopening of Tenderloin dance halls
The Tenderloin district resumes full dance hall activity after Chief Sullivan lifts and then widens the closure. Protests claim the line south of Jackson street forced moves, while owners allege a graft of 100 dollars monthly to run. John W. Considine purportedly helped restart dancing.
Considine Defies Shutdown and Powers Hold City
Immediately after his return he declared he would not stand for the shutdown and did not. Considine is deeply hated and feared by many city supporters who view him as a force not to defy. He is known for outspoken remarks that some times upset the administration. The Humes machine allegedly pulled a string to have Chief Sullivan rescind his order. The monthly wage of 100 may be resumed but is doubtful with at least one dance hall operator saying he will not pay.
