A NEW MONTE CARLO.
Open Gambling in Every Form in
Wheeling During Fair Week,
WINKED At By THE AUTHORITIES.
An Entire Village Built Of Doors Stolen
from Freight Cars.
MINOR NEWS FROM THE THREE STATES
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE p.spArcu.r

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D.sPATCH.l
WHEELING, Sept. 13.-This city has long
been known as a town where any gentleman
of gambling proclivities could risk and lose
his cash with every assurance that the au-
thorities would not disturb the layout dur
ing the progress of the game, but it has re-
mained for the past few days of fair week
to demonstrate how wide open the places
can be run. Not only were poker rooms,
keno and faro shops running all over town,
just as usual, only more SO, but on the Fair
Grounds everything "went" with a ven
geance. In consideration of the sum of
s. 200 received by the association, no less
than seven wheels of fortune were openly
running during the entire week, and in ad-
dition the shell game, chuck-a-luck, monte,
heiron1mous and half q dozen games were
operated.
The city ard county officials took hand
themselves ut the game, and one prominent
official OF Wheeling run the black and white
wheel for awhile himself winning some
cash, which he smilingly pocketed. The
word was passed around the grounds during
the fair that anybody who had $50 or 500
could start game, and they were all in it
to such an extent that the short-haired fra
telnltN from Pittsburg, Columbus, Cleve-
land ana other places voted Wheeling the
hvcliest town they had struck during the
season. The gamblers scooped in thousands
OF dollars during the week, while the back
country suckers went home in disgust, for
any tale of burko he had to tell was poured
into deaf ears in official circles here. The
lair was glorious success to everybody, eX-
cepjing, Of course the producer.
