The destruction of the big pile of gambling apparatus came about as the result of court order issued following the spectacular raid con- ducted here on August 16.
 One roulette wheel destroyed by the officers was valued at about $2,500.. It was originality single table but had been converted into double one. The numbers on the original table were inlaid with moth- CT of pearl. ebony. ironwood, ma hogany, lockwood and rosewood. The wheel was made of mahogany and

Judge Heilig, after reading the verdict, ordered Williams freed, his bondsmen released from their obligation and the wfiskey, which seemed to have no owner, turn ed over to the federal officials for confiscation.

LODGE TURNS LINGO IN DEFENSE OF HIS PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE PEACE TREATY WAVES THE YELLOW PERIL BE- FORE THE SENATE.
WAR BETWEEN WHITE
 AND YELLOW PEOPLES
IS FOR SEEN BY PROPHETIC SEN ATOR FROM MASSACHUSETTS AFTER JAPAN HAS GOBBLED UP CHINA AND MADE TT SUB- SERVIENT.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 14.-(P) In defense of his proprosed amend ment to the peace treaty by which he would have the Shantung peninsula given to China, Senator Lodge this afternoon addressed the senate Haunt ing the "the yellow peril" before his colleagues, picturing Japan as already laying the groundwork for war by which he declared she would seek to establish the supremacy of the yellow races over the white, both European and American. He also de- clared that America owed it to China to make this change since America was responsible for China's entrance into the struggle.
 Japan, declared the senator, is building far Eastern empire which will not only become peril to Amer ica but threaten the safety of the en- tire outside world. He urged the adoption of the Lodge amendment returning Germany's former Shantung concessions and rights to China. He said that Japan is getting control of China steadily and relentlessly. Jap an, he asserted, intends to use Chinas vast manpower to endanger the safety of America and Europe. "It is inn possible to see," he said, "how any conscientious American can consent to any act or treaty that will extend Japan's power in China especially when America drew China into the war with the implied promise to pro- tect China's rights at the peace table"

GOLD IS BEING
 SALVACED FROM
 BOTTOM OF SEA

PORTSALON, Ireland, Oct. By MailD-Salvaging $35,OOO,OOO worth of gold ingots and bullion the White Star liner Laurentic is reported to have carried when she was sunk the night of January 25, 1917, off Fanad Light, one of the northernmost head lands of Ireland at the entrance to Lough Swilly, is being conducted by the salvage ship Racer.
 The princely cargo lay at depth of twenty-two fathoms. The gold and bullion were contained in the strong chamber amidships rendered almost impregnable by it's thick steel walls and heavily bolted doors. At first portions of the Laurentic's decks were blasted away and passage was made clear for the divers. On June 20 the retrieving of the treasure began.
 The first bucket sent up contain ed only copper pennies and a few silver coins. Then for several days, bucket after bucket containing three or more gold bars, each worth more than $5,O00. were hoisted to the sur face and dumped on the deck of the Racer. The first of these bars brot lusty cheers from the crew of the salvage ship, but tossing fortunes about soon came to be merely an- other form of manual labor to these sailormen.
 Most of the gold bars were nine inches long, two inches thick and four inches wide and weighed about twenty-eight pounds. For days not one was found as many of them were hurled clear of the wreck by the blasting necessary to make the strong chamber accessible. Several feet of sand have now been washed over these scattered bars and meath masses of twisted steel and it fre- quently requires hours of patient la bor to pry them loose. The record days haul so far had been forty-sev- en bars-worth approximately $350,- 900. Thus far several million dol lars worth of treasure has been salvaged.
 The Racer carries eight divers. Their tricks" are so arranged that one diver is at work turnout the day. Each works half an hour and then must spend thirty minutes in coming to the surface as otherwise the sud- den relief from the tremendous deep water pressure might cause partial or complete paralysis. They are prot up in ten-fathom "hauls," with ten minute rest" intervals.
 When the days work is over, the days catch" if considerable, is des- patched to London with an armed convoy.
 When first built the Racer was a square-rigger man-o'-war-one of the Wooden Walls of England" as the ships of the British navy at that time were known-a century ago.

The addition consisted of an ordinary, heaply-constructed table with the numerals painted on heavy oil-cloth. An interesting feature in connection with this particular layout was that it could be controlled by the house. The control was of the double type that is. it could be manipulated either by the croupier or operator or by someone located in an adjacent room. Whether this feature was ever used could not be determined.
 Other articles destroyed in the fire included card tables, faro tables, playing cards, poker chips and faro boxes.
