BEAT ROULETTE WHEELS.
Reno Gambling Men Reported 70 Have
Been Svvindled.

A slick brace of roulette wheel
operators swindled the gamblers of
Reno to the tune of at least $1,000
during a few hours early yesterday
morning The wheel in the Golden
hotel gambling rooms is reported to
have lost in the neighborhood of $500
as a result of a visit from two of the
slick artists, though last night the pro-
prietors of the games denied that they
had been taken in.
The Elite wheel is also out neat
sum as a result of visit from the
men who make practice of beating
roulette games.
From what can be learned of the
matter it appears that the swindlers
in some manner succeeded in placing
lead walls in the different numbered
compartments of the wheel. BY this
