No. 55 Under Rule 42.--When any room or building in any part or portion within the precinct is known to the captain to be kept, used, or occupied for purposes of prost.i.tution, a.s.signation, or other immoral purpose, he must give notice in writing to the owner, lessee or occupant, that such room or building is so used, and that it is a misdemeanor.[316]

APPENDIX IX
PARLOR HOUSES: ADDITIONAL DATA
_X_ 25. _Sixth Avenue--a one-dollar house._
March 5, 12.40 A. M. The investigator visited this place at the solicitation of X 26, a lighthouse stationed at the corner of Sixth Avenue and 29th Street. He counted 14 inmates and bought a pint bottle of beer for 25 cents from the madame. The names of some of the inmates are Mignon, Helen, Violet and Georgette.
March 6, 1912, 11 P. M. This house is reported as running about a year.
Names of some of inmates: Alice, Louise and Mabel.
May 25, 1912. Rosie, X 27, was an inmate here on this date.
July 21, 1912. Flora, X 28, and Violet, X 29, were inmates here on this date.
August 25, 1912. The proprietors are X 30, and X 31. The madame is X 32.
_X_ 7. _James Slip._
At 2 P. M. on April 10, 1912, there were seven inmates in the receiving parlor. One of these girls said there were three more, making ten in all.
All were dressed in the regular parlor house costume and all claimed to possess medical certificates. Tony, X 8, is said to be connected with this house, and reaps the profits from the business. The girls receive one-half of what they make, _i. e._, twenty-five cents from every visitor. The sanitary conditions are very bad.
