I do not know any specifics about prostitution in 1900, but I am sure it did occur. Prostitution has existed about as long as human civilization, and has remained a constant throughout most of world history in many cultures. If you are interested in the history of prostitution, or just looking for background information, try wikipedia. I know their English article is very informative and provides excellent sources and links.
The legalization of 19th century prostitution originates from Britain, Western Europe, and the United States. It takes root from the "regulationists" of their time who saw a necessary evil in making revenue off of taxing the unfortunately popular business of buying and selling sex. Prostitution was more favored among the higher classes of any of those three prominent countries, and more enlightened men of the era believed that as men "will be men", there was no use depriving them of something they would inevitably seek out whether it was illegal or not. They believed regulating the typically disease and poverty ridden profession would be the best for everyone involved.
The general public and policy makers were well aware licensing prostitution was further spreading diseases - so rather than abolishing it all over again, the British government sought to further keep the business in practice by establishing the Contagious Disease Prevention Act. This horrified progressives and feminists, the more prominent of such being Josephine Butler. She spoke out against forced examinations of women who were sold into sex trade to begin with. "Known as "abolitionists" Butler and others blamed "unbridled male lust" for prostitution and viewed involuntary prostitution as 'white slave trade.'" After World War I, usually considered the end of the Progressive era, the goal was to stamp it out. Of course, this was never accomplished, but never again was it legalized except for in the areas it is well known to thrive today.
