HOUSE YIELDS IO
BATTLESKJP PLAN
Majority, in Caucus. Agrees to
Compromise on One New
Dreadnought.
WASHINGTON Aug 15 Hmtsp
Democrats late yesterdaj agrred in.
caucus to recede from their no bat- j
tieship program" in this e .‘•-ion and to;
permit the t>attl<ship champions to vote '
for one such \ The decision came .
after a long fight in the house for no '
battleships. I'nlike the four preceding
caucuses, there was an absence of bit
terness and by a rising vote ■ f 95 to
11 the resolution of recession was put
through.
It is expected the senate will agree!
to the one-battlerhip plan, ending th
deadlock o\»i the naval bill. While
the solid support of the majority will
not be given to tile 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 rnetriber 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
ahd most formidable fighting craft over
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

JACK ROSE TELLS HOW .
PURPOSE TO KEEP OUT
OF GAMBLING FAILED

NEW YORK. Aug. 15. The Chicago ‘
Iman to whom L*-e owed the $3,000 wa«»
a Pan •' rk L<e alway* went to *u< h
* men v ?.» nhe wanted money.
i Payment wa.« made direct to the loan (
I shark by the theaieig at which Lee ap
j pea red
i I gave Lee all the money I had— (
| about $-’.<’oo and told him I would get
1 th< balance I went to some friends (
land borrowed $2,000 more
We started for <’hi<ago. Before 1
was there on»* neck I found i needed
more money as Lee had no < on« .p- '
tian of figure.”.
I came to N< u York and borrowed 1
anothri $2,000. returned to Chicago and
j gave it to Lee.
The show was launched in Chicago
nt the Colonial theater shortly after 1
that It proved all that l/Ce claimed
for it. During all this time I didn’t
touch a raid or do any gambling !
wa« absorbed in my new venture.
Lee who was treasurer of the firm ,
had all the lime tn himself Soon I be-
•
gun to get suspicious that Lee was
gambling. I asked him about it, anil he
assured mo that he was through for
ever We then made all arrangements
to play 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.
I left Ja»e in Chicago and came to
New York to arrange for further book
ings While here I received word from
Lee that he had let his foot slip, and
that he had obligated himself to the
extent of $2,000 gambling. He had given
our plant a.s security. He attributed
this misfortune to the absence of my
restraining influence.
I was In despair. I had borrowed
everywhere 1 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
lie 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 pf SBOO from a
prominent play author and another of
I SI,OOO from a friend hf 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 make the Journey to
Canada. 1 raised another SI,OOO and
started for Chicago. By this time 1 was
involved for about SII,OOO.
When it came 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 10-t all the
money gambling.
I had a friend in Chicago who made
an arrangement to allow the produc
tion to move. Before the first perform
ance was ovei in Toronto Lee collapsed,
was pul to bed and we despaired of
his recovery.
I borrowed enough money to firing
Lee and the rest of the company home
to New York. He recovered, went to
Chicago shortly after, and died sud
denly. I w ent back to gambling again,
more involved than ever and with an- |
other sermon in the life of Henry Lee
on the curse of gambling
Harassed by Creditors.
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.
ami they still ar» unsatisfied
My creditors at times dragged me I
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
other they do it. They don't really
know how themselves.
I would go along for weeks at a time
I unable to meet small household bills,
the rent in arrears, etc.
Then some day I would make a good
winning pay all the bills and again
feel easy for a time.
I was one of the large army of ap
parently prosperous men about town
I Every once in a while I would secure
| an Interest tn some gambling house and
■ whlld we were set alone make some
I money
I Then would come a raid, the closing

nllllona.
Then I could pay everybody, retire
'runt tile bualneas, take my family
iwav somewhere and start all over
tgain.
That is about the dream of the aver
ige small gambling house keepet
The small gambling houses of down
own. ttie kind 1 was associated In. are
isually composed of from four to six
jarfners. It is usually started by each
nan putting up about SI,OOO.
The partners work in the place and
haw an average < f $lO a day wages.
Profits Usually Small.
The profits, if there Is anv, are usu
illy divided on the first of each month.
In most of the gambling houses on
he East Side about all that is left at
he end of the month is the salary that
tach partner has been drawing
I have often thought that one-quar
er the energy devoted In any other
iirection that is used by the average
mial! gambling house owner to keep
(float would make him successful in
my other business.
There are no fixed hours of work.
Sometimes we put in twelve hours and
•ometlmes it Is twenty-four hours.
In my last xenture, which was the
louse conducted by Herman Rosen
hal. of which 1 was a partner, we
darted in one Monday night and Wed
nesday night found us all still at work,
with the exception of short intervals of
relief for a bite to eat and a few hours
sleep in a chair propped against the
wa 11.
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
it getting out that our ''hank roll" had
been won out.
Replenishing Bank Roll.
For Instance, on several occasions
out "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 the amount of checks out that we
would have to redeem with money.
On comparing the amount of checks
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 fill 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 ol
the players, and our regular "hank roll'
had been distressed, and being night
time, we couldn't get to the bank sot
fresh funds.
The man running a game when these
emergencies come up will resort t<:
any kind of a chance to get money
knowing, as he does, that while at
times the players get runs of luck, all
that is necessary is to keep them play
ing. and in the end the house must get
the money back. JACK ROSE.

3-fi-DAY VARIETY
Atlanta to Get Regular Keith
Acts Under New Arrange
ment. Says Cardoza.
| Just what "popular vaudeville" is -
I the kind ths? Forsyth theater w ill intro
idtb''* beginning Monday- was exj.iained
: by Hugh t'atdoza. manager of the the
. at< r. today to satisfy the curiosity of
a host of theatergoers.
" There is a w ide difference between
I (his class of vaudeville and the cheap
i priced stuff that has been offered in
|t he small theaters." said Mr. < 'ardoza
"Popular vaudeville of the sort that
’the Forsyth will offer bears the Keith
jbl ind. The acts are booked by the
| United Booking Offices of America,
j from the family department of that
I great Keith institution in New York,
and make up the attractions in a cir
cuit of several hundred all
ov r the country, there being twenty in
th» Wells circuit. Richmond. Norfolk,
i Nashville. Birmingham and Savannah
have had the service for a number of
weeks, and the success has been re
markable.
"Knowing Atlanta theatergoers as I
do, I feel more than suie 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-" 1 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
and little John Jacob Astor are doing
finely."
This was the announcement mads by
Dr. Edwin B. <'ragin, the Astor family
physician, today, after he had paid his
first visit to the Astor mansion, where
a $3,000,000 baby boy was born yes
terday.
Dr. Cragin added that the posthu
mous heir of the millionaire who lost
his life on the Titanic was unusually
healthy anti strong, and that the moth
er 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 be one of the beneficiaries of
the Astor estate. His mother was such
an infant, being under 21 until June 19.
as ate also Vineent Astor, now head of
the American branch of the family and
nis sister. Muriel.
After the naming of the guardian, a
definite announcement is expected as to
whether the w ill of the baby's father is
to be contested.
