SOCIETY PEOPLE TAKEN
-. IN A GAMBLING RAID
Prominent Persons Captured
When Resort in London Is !
Broken Up

LONDON, December 17.-Details
which came out in court today in re-
gard to sensational raid last night
en- West End gambling house SNOW
that the place raided was one of the
largest gaming establishments in Lon
den. The raid took place at $50 p. m.
Three young married women and all
the men captured held good positions
IN society. A night raid would lney-
itably have resulted in the capture of
dozens of members of Parliament and
pos sibly a member of the Cabinet.
When Detective Mccoy first broke
into the game as Mr.. Charles Harris"
of the Bachelors Club, he gave as the
name of his sponsor that of an Amer
lean peerless. He was told that she
was known, but did not play there, go
ing to another house of similar sort.
"A jockey who lost 1850 at this
house is said to be Randall. wfo, be-
fore he became professional, was
one of the finest amateur riders in
England. A woman who lost $4,000 is
the widow of a big dry goods mer-
chant, who, since she came into her
husbands immense fortune, has been
contributing largely to several West
End gambling bells. ~....<...
William Marshall Crosse, the crou-
pier, and Roy McRay, the lessee. were
arrested as the principals. The former
is supposed to be, the grandson-in-law
of Sarah Bernhard. ..... Z
Some idea of the tremendous profits
made at this house was cleaned from
McRay's bank account. In September
A. amounted to- $65. When arrested
he had $4,000 to his credit Chemir
de fer was played exclusively, and the
house had 10 per cent rake-off.

SEEK CHANGE

Between fifty and sixty officers and
employees with the federal customs
service in the territory OF Hawaii
petition for a change in the uniform
prescribed for this branch or the ser
vice will receive belated attention.
For years the men on the local
staff of customs inspectors and watch.
men have been at a loss to understand
just why they should be Obliged 10
wear uniform of the weight, tex.
ture and color as that donned from
January to July by their brethren in
the customs service at. Portland, Me-,
New York City, Detroit on juneau,
Alakas .....~
A new circular letter, issued by the
United States treasury department
calls attention TO some rather radical
changes of more tn an peculiar inter
est to the local customs force. For
instance: they are informed that the
Uniform heretofore prescribed Tor GER
tain customs employees has now been
amended to. authorize and require all
officers connected with the depart
ment in the district of Brazos de San
tos, Corpus Christi, Salieria, Paso del
Norte, the district Of Arizona and the
district of San Diego. to wear uni
fordm of drab colored cloth of light
material instead Of the regulation
blue --:< ..
The contention has always been
raised by the local staff that tie pres
ent uniform, required by the federal
government, was never adapted to
the needs and conditions to be found
in the tropics. .%
1t is now predicted that in view of
the new regulation which effects the
southern districts Of the United States,
Collector Stackable stands in line to
secure much-sought-for change for
the better, should he take steps to
have the district of Hawaii incorpor
eted in the list of those, now known
to possess tropical cline.
The average customs uniform in use
at the port of Honolulu is much sim
liar to that worn by a federal inspect
or in New York city throughout the
coolest. months. Following one OF the
many unreasonable federal laws, pro-
mulgated before the United States
government ever dreamed OF Decom-
ing the guardian of series OF insu-
lar and tropical possessions, the men
in the customs service are compelled
to procure clothing along exact lines
as that prescribed for all ports OF en-
try in the United States. The possi-
bility of a change will be much wei
coined here. =. - -

STOCK MARKET is
REPORTED STRONGER

Although little business was done
on the board today, the stock market
is reported to be stronger. This con-
.dition may be reflected in the re-
covery of an eighth point by MeBryde
in a sale of 5 shares at 4.1212, and al
the firmness of Eva at 24.50 with
sales of two lots of 10 shares each.
These transactions constituted the en-
tire business of the session.
In recess Oahu held its own for
the comparatively large block of $50
shares at 236212. Olaa remained un-
changed at 4 for Is shares and Brew
cry at Il for So shares. Pineapple de-
clined another quarter point to "A for
the considerable block of ESQ shares.
