HIGH STAKES WON
ON ]! !. LINER AT SEA
81 5000 Changes Hands a
One Session Of Baccarat

New York, Aug. 16 - While the
Cunard liner Mauretania was speeding
along a few miles ahead of the French
liner La France in an exciting ocean
race there was some gambling for high
stakes going on in the smokeroom OF
on the turn of a card.
Baccarat was the game. and it was
estimated that fully $4,000 changed
hands in the play. One of the players,
Jay O'Brien, of New York, won $2500
nthe turn of a card.
Gambling ran high during the entire
trip, and baccarat was the most popu-
lar game. Several young men whose
fathers are numbered among Amer
ica's richest played each night and
about $4,000 had been won and lost
at the table Mr. O'Brien was the
luckiest player on the voyage, his Win
nings being estimated at $4,000.
For the first time, it was said, a
woman sat in one of the games of deep
sea gambling. She had played only
short time, however, when the stew
ards informed her that women were
not allowed to participate in the games
for real money"

Leaving out of consideration the
millions that are being spent on
the widening and deepening of the
channels into the big harbors of
the nation, one of the greatest pro-
jects which the Engineer Corps has
under way, and upon which a cool
100000 monthly is being spent,
is the improvement of the Hudson
river in the vicinity of Albany
and Troy, where locks and dams
are being built to connect the chan
mel with the State Barge Cana, the
aim of the Engineers of the Army
being to complete their portion of
the work before the completion of
The canal proper another engineer
ssefissll4ngs II respsc !;
the construction of the great ditch
across the Isthmus of Panama
In the scheme of building an
interior waterway from the rugged
rocks Of Maine to the sand spits
of Florida, Congress early recog-
nized the necessity of connecting
up we'll defined water avenues
along the Atlantic coast, to the
end that the perils of Hatteras and
other danger spots along the Allan
tic shores might be avoided.
AS a part of the project the
Chesapeake and Albemarle canal
was purchased by the Federal
Government at an upset price of
$500,000, title to the same having
passed to the United States with
in the past sixty days. This is a
connecting waterway between Nor
folk, Va, and Beaufort, N. c., be-
ing part of the Boston to Beau
fort Inlet section of the proposed
continuous inland waterway from
New England to the Rio GraHis.
The purchase of the canal having
been accomplished. the Engineer
Corps will shortly advertise for
bids to deepen this waterway to
IL feet, with a width of 200 feet.
To aid in the work of excavation,
dredge will also be contracted for.
1--WE are conducting the i'm
provements on our rivers and har-
bors on the theory that we will
have a river and harbor bill every
year, as Congress has outlined will
be DONE" said the Engineer officer
referred to, "and our estimates Cor
completing projects or continuing
work on them are based upon the
assumption that the money appro-
priated will. be used up, and that
there will be no hangovers.
What is true of bettrements go
ing on along the Atlantic, Pacific
and Gulf coasts is also true of
activities along the Ohio, the Mis-
sissippi and in the Lake region"
