HOUSE HELDS TO
BATTLESHIP PLAN
Majority, in Caucus. Agrees to
Compromise on One New
Dreadnought.
WASHINGTON Aug 15 Hou*e
Democrats Sale yesterday agreed in,
caucus to recede from their “no bat- |
tleehip program in thi* a salon and to
permit the t>attl*shi|> champions to vote
for one such vessel. The decision came
After a long tight in the house for no
battleships. I'nlike h> four preceding
caucuses, there wns an absence of bit
terness and be a rising vote of 95 to
11 the resolution of recession was put
through.
It is expected tlv senate will agree j
to the one-battleship plan, ending the
deadlock over the naval bill While
the solid support of the majority will
not he given to the battleship program,
leaders are confident they will have far
more than the necessary strength when
aligned with the Republican "friends
of the navy."
The resolution embodying the reces
sion states that no monfber Is bound to
vote for one battleship should he not
desire to do so
An effort will be made to have the
warship to be authorized the largest
and most formidable fighting craft ever
laid down The vessel, if its sponsors
win their fight, would be equal in fight
ing ability to any two battleships below
the dreadnought size and far superior
to any of the latter class now afloat.
A sharp fight is expected on this pro
gram. however

PURPOSE TO KEEP OUT
0F GAMBLING FAILED
By JACK ROSE.

NEW YORK. Aug. 15. -The Chicago
'man. to whom Lee owed the $3,000 wa**
a loan shark Lee always went to such
'men when he wanted money.
I Payment was made direct to the loan
I shark by the theaters at which Lee aj»-
j peered.
I gave L« < all the mone.x I had
ahnut $2,000 and t<»ld him I would get
th*’ balance I went to some friends
and borrowed $2,000 more
We started for Chicago Before I
was there on* week I found I needed
more money, as Lee had no concep
tion of figures.
I came to Nev York and borrowed
another $2,000. returned Co Chicago and
, gave it to Lee.
The shnu was launched In Chicago
at the Colonial theater shortly after
that. H proved all that Lee claimed
for it During al) this time I didn't
touch a <aid or do any gambling I
we-- absorbed in my new venture.
Lee. who was treasurer of the firm,
had all the time to himself Soon I be
gan to get suspicious that Lee was
gambling. I asked him about It. and he
as.suied me that he was through for
ever Wo then made all arrangements
to pla\ a week’s engagement at Massey
hall, in Toronto. Canada, during the ex
position, but the engagement was still
about a month off. and the plant need
ed some overhauling.
Borrowed to Limit.
1 left l>ee in Chicago and came to
New York to arrange for further book
ings While here I received word from
I zee that he had let his foot slip, and
that he had obligated himself to the
extent of $2,U00 gambling. He had given
our plant as security. He attributed
this misfortune to the absence of my
restraining Influence.
I was In despair I ha<] borrowed
everywhere I could and didn't know an
other soul to go to for assistance. I
wired Lee to come to New York, and
he did 1 explained my awful position
He was very penitent, and told me that
after all. It meant only a couple of
weeks longer, when our Canadian tour
would straighten everything out
I secured a new loan of sxwo from a
prominent play author and another of
$l.(H)0 from a friend «»f the family and
turned it over to Lee.
He went back to Chicago and I re
ceived another message that more mon
ey was needed to nutke the journey to
• 'anadii. I rained another $l,00(» and
started fol Chicago By this lime I was
involved for about SII,OOO.
When it caine time to move to To
ronto I learned that Lee had never
paid the man who held the lien on the
plant, and he refused to allow the pro
duction to move. Lee had lost all the
money gambling.
I had a friend in Chicago who made
an arrangement to allow the produc
tion to move Resole the first |M*rfoim
ance whs over in Toronto Lee collapsed
was put to bed and we despaired of
ills recovery.
1 borrowed enough money to bring
Lee an I tile rest of the company ho mt
to New York. He recovered, went to
Chicago shortly after, and died sud
denly. I went back to gambling again. 1

I was constantly being harassed by
creditors. Suits were Instituted against
me. To none could I make answer
other than that I hadn’t the money to
pay.
Judgments were secured against me.
and they still are unsatisfied
My creditors at times dragged me
into supplementary proceedings to as
certain if possible how I managed to
live and provide for my family
That is one of the unexplainable
things tn a gambler’s life Somehow or

interested In and l<’Be one of his many !
millions.
Then 1 could pay everybody, retire
from the business, take my family
away somewhere and start all over
again.
That is about the. dream of the aver- '
age small gambling house keeper.
The small gambling houses of down- .
town, the kind I was associated in. are
usually composed of from four to six j
partners It Is usually started by each ■
man putting up about Sl.fiOO.
The partners work In the place and ■
draw an average if lift a day wages !
Profits Usually Small.
I'he profits, if there is anv. are usti- .
ally divided on the first of each month
In most of the gambling houses on I
the East Side about, all that Is left at '
the end of the month is the salary that |
each partner has been drawing. |
I have often thought that one-quar- j
ler the energy devoted In any other I
direction that is used by the average
small gambling house owner to keep
afloat would make him successful in
any other business •
There are no fixed hours of work.
Sometimes we put, in twelve hours and
sometimes it is twenty-four hours.
In my last venture, which was the
house conducted by Herman Rosen
thal, of which 1 was a partner, we
started in one Monday night and Wed
nesday night found us all still at work,
with ihe exception of short intervals of
relief for a bite to eat and a few hours
sleep in a chair propped against the
wall.
That particular play paid us, when
the game quit, almost SIO,OOO to the
good. But we have had other long ses
sions and the end found us not only
having lost sleep, but with it our "bank
roll.''
And often "frenzied finance" methods
had to be brought into play to prevent
ii getting out that our "hank roll" had
been won out. ■
Replenishing Bank Roll.
For instance, on several occasions |
our "bank roll" was getting thin. The '
game would start. Soon the players
were all winners It was my duty to
make a quick mental calculation of
about tile amount of checks out that we
would have to redeem with money.
On comparing the amount of cheeks
and the amount of the cash on hand, if
I found we were getting near the dan
ger point of a showdown, or of not be
ing able to meet our obligations, it was
then up to me to call another member
of the firm and give him about six
blank checks to till In. He would start
out to visit other gambling houses, or
obliging friends would cash these
checks.
Os course, none of the others sus
pected the game had suffered an un
usually hard drubbing at the hands of
the players, and our regular "bank roll"
had been distressed, and being night
time, we couldn't get to the bank for:
fresh funds.
The man running .1 game when these I
emergencies come up will resort to j
any kind of a chance to get money, ;
knowing, as he does, that while at I
times the players get runs of luck, al! I
that is necessary is to keep them play- '
Ing. and in the end the house must get I
the money back JACK ROSE.

have had the service for a number of

ma rka ble.
"Knowing Atlanta theatergoers as I
do, 1 feel more than sure that this pol
icy is going to be mighty popular. The
five acts we will offer come direct from
the Keith offices, and will play our di
rect circuit, coming in or going out of
Atlanta. The acts are of the identical
quality of the best part of the bills
that have been seen here, in Birming
ham and Nashville and in Richmond
and Norfolk we can not accommodate
the crowds. That accounts for the ar
rangement of two performances at
night. The second night performance
starts at 9:15. The idea is "short and
sweet." I feel sure that the Forsyth
is going to continue to be the very
busy and popular place it is.”

ASTOR BABY HUSKY
INFANT; COURT TO
APPOINT GUARDIAN
NEW YORK. Aug 15—" Mrs. Astor
Sand little John Jacob Astor are doing
I finely."
This was the announcement made by
I Dr. Edwin B. f'ragin. the Astor family
l>hyslclan. today, after he had paid his
! first visit to the Astor mansion, where
a s3,<hii».ijoo baby boy was born yes
terday.
Dr Cragin added that the posthu-
I mous heir of thg millionaire who lost
his life on the Titanic was unusually
healthy and strong, and that the moth
ei shows remarkable strength.
Steps have already been taken in the
legal proceedings that naturally follow
the birth of an heir to such a great for
tune. There devolves upon Surrogate
Cohalon the duty of naming a special
guardian for young John Jacob Astor.
He is the fourth infant, in the eyes of
the law, to he one of the beneficiaries of
the Astor estate. His mother was such
an infant, being under 21 until June 19.
as are also Vincent Astor, now head of
i the American branch of the family, and
his sistfr, Muriel.
After the naming of the guardian, a
definite announcement is expected as to
whether the will of the baby's father is
to be contested.
