AMERICAS MONTE CARLO
Monster Gambling Scheme Pro-
posed for New Jersey.
TO CATCH WORLDS FAIR VISITORS

The Casino Sporting Club" VIII Sock
Legislative Sanction for Their Plan to
Separate Visiting Foreigners from Their
Money.
JERSEY CITY, March 10. - The recent
legislation of the New Jersey lawmakers,
II is said by people who profess to know,
is but the opening wedge for other meas
ures, besides which the race track bill will
be morality itself
While the law and order element in New
Jersey is raising hue and cry about the
immortality of the Parker bills and the
evil effects that are bound to follow the
enactment of the law, the gamblers are
quietly resting on their oars and waiting
for the excitement to blow over before
they press their new measure
According to the general gossip of the
gamblers who congregate in the resorts of
the "tenderloin district of New York
bill has already been prepared and would
have been introduced before this had not
the race track bill raised such storm,
providing for the establishment and oper-
alton of what is known us the Casino
Sporting club.
The gamblers who are back of the
scheme, it is said, have secured an option
on large tract OF lana between tnlS Guy
and the Siuttenburg race track, where they
propose to establish Monte Carlo Of
America.
The ground, 1t is said, will be inclosed,
and within the enclosure there will be a
large hotel a theatre where variety per-
formances will be conducted and a big
casino where games of chance of every sort
will be conducted Besides this there will
be large pavilion, where it is hoped in
time to conduct boxing matches similar to
those conducted in New Orleans.
The cry that is being raised by the law
and order element has SO far had absc-
lutely no effect on the gamblers, and even
the threats Of President Cleveland that
the gambling and race track bills must be
repealed If the Democrats of New Jersey
expect to receive any recognition at his
hands have been Ineffective The legisla-
tors, it is said, will benefit more by the
casino scheme than they could from any
occasional political appointment that
would be given them by Mr.. Cleveland
The projectors of the Casino Sporting
club, who have kept in the background,
are only carrying out a scheme that many
| prominent gamblers have had in their
mind ever since the Worlds fair was de-
cided upon. All the games that are con-
Quoted at Monte Carlo will be played, and
the scheme is especially devised for sep
arating the large number of foreigners
that will visit America from their money.
