new YORK GAMBLERS

New York, Aug. 31.-A new gambling
house that was opened last night
practically next door to the Waldorf
Astoria surpasses in magnifcence any
thing OF the sort heretofore attempted
In America. One feature OF the place
Is a $4,000 marble staircase leading
from the reception room on the ground
floor to the gaming room on the second
floor. The interior OF the place is in
harmony with the elegance of this
staircase. The reception room furnish
ings are the costliest things in leather
and upholstery that could be obtained,
with bits Of sculpture and expensive
paintings added. The diningroom
seats only fifteen persons. The table
service is OF limoges, china and cut
glass.
In the gaming room the decorations
are superb. The highest priced artists
have been employed eight months COW
erlng the walls and ceilings with angels
and sirens. The house itself was
, bought by Frank Farrell and his asso-
ciates for $4,000. The Aston estate
not wanting q gambling house SO near
the hotel, offered the gamblers $780,
900 for the property a few days later
but the offer was declined.

In a smart livery. The dealers and
croupiers wear evening dress. The
limit at the faro tables is $3.50 on cases
and $500 on doubles, but this may be
raised for plungers. At the roulette
