In the later chapters we shall treat of the hideous and most important evils of the city, in detail.
The “Debauchery of the Ballot,” the “redlight” districts and their machinery and thousands of ruined women, the White Slave Traffic, the gambling games and their alliance with the police, the “Vampire Trust,” petty crimes that flourish, buried plague spots of the city, and other startling features in the kingdom of crime will be separately and truthfully treated.
We are telling a terrible story. It is the story of—
—CHICAGO—
THE WICKEDEST CITY IN THE WORLD!
Mr. McCutcheon in The Tribune.
