LONDON, September 30. Lord
Rosslyn's effort to prove the infallibi-

roulette by means of automatically
calculated progressions has failed mis-
erably.

he raked Rossyln's last chip, repre-
senting the last of a $4,000 roll OF
money. Rossyln went broke on the
33S2nd coup. Sir Hiram said.
Il arranged the test merely to show
the folly of gambling. l showed the
folly of systems to beat the bank at
Monte Carlo. No percentage game can
be beaten"
