Who May Gamble in England.

A HALF dozen law books, OF forbidding as
pect, which Librarian Percy Digby pulled
yesterday from the shelves in the Law Ii
brary, were enough to convince anyone that
Lord Chief Justice Coleridge stated the OK
net facts when he instructed the jury in the
Gordon Cumming case that the Prince
of Wales broke no law in playing baccarat
under the conditions prevailing at Tranby
Croft. A careful reading of the English
statutes applicable to the case, beginning
with those Of the ID and Sd Vict. and on
ward, shows clearly, however, that the
police. upon sworn Information of the game
those Memorable nights after the Doncaster
races, might have Tnided the house,
arrested the players, and seized
the gambling implements, Then upon
proof of the charge Of keeping gambling
for the purpose of gambling, the banker, His
Royal Highness Albert Edward, Prince
of Wales, might have been 1ned 500
without hard labor-a merciful fate for
II. R. Hand ell the other gamblers might
have been mulcted in similar amounts or
sent to Jail. 1t would have been . .prettier
cIuded. precedent for such q raid exists,
too, in the proceedings instituted year or
two ago against certain aristocratic West
End clubs in London, where high play ut
had prevailed. The English statutes and
the police who enforce them do not, as a
rule, look above what is called the
lower classes for criminal gambling.
Hardly a day passes but yon may read

looking bookmakers in small way being
fined by the worshipful magistrate at Bow
Street Police Court for making bets on q
street corner; OF of a couple of cabbies who
tossed pennies against the Queens most
excellent majesty ~ laid by the heels for ten
days by like authority. The English law is
very clear and plain about the iniauity and
crinlinality of gambling outside of the aristo-
cratic pale, but the Prince OF Wales can con-
tinue to cart about the country his baccarat
layout, chips and all, and even suitable
table (the lack of which ut Tranby Croft
may have tempted baronet to double his
stakes surreptitiousiy when he had won),
without fear of police interference.
