GAMBLERS GET
RICH BOOTY ON
OCEAN LINERS
Professionals With Attractive
Women Decoys Prey Upon
Transatlantic Travellers.

NEW YORK, October PRO
fessional gamblers and attractive
women. used as decoys, are reap,
Ing a golden harvest on trans.
Atlantic liners this season, according
10 statements made by travellers and
ships officers. The preying para
sites on the steamers are more &C
tive and more successful, II Is as
serted, than at any time in the last
ten years.
According to one ships officer
every liner has its victims this year
ana extremely large amounts Of
money are lost at cards or in the
forms OF hush money" The fol
lowing statement was made by an
oltlCer in discussing the situation:
me steamship companies are
powerless to do more than issue
printed warnings about the prese1t e
on board OF professional gamblers.
After all, ii must be assumed
that grown.up passengers are able
TO take care of themselves in the
choice of their friends aboard and
at the card tables.
Moreover, although we might
suspect a man or woman of being
crook it is difficult to find any
reason for putting them ashore or
otherwise restraining them when
they have paid their fare as ordinary
passengers.
1T is known to us. and cannot he
too widely known to the travelling
public, that clever gangs Of crooks

work. They are well dressed and

frequently changed. Their activi-
ties take place chiefly, Of course,
in the great and luxurious vessels
that attract the richest passengers.
Some. Of the gamblers cours
appear to be so well organized that
1t is suspected there is a master or
ganizer pulling the strings-some.
one with knowledge, resource, new
ideas, and bold methods of carrying
them out.
THE audacity of the professional
sharper is wonderful. The suspect
ed chief of one OF the best known
gambling gangs was observed in one
OF the big liners a week or two ago
with three other men, two of whom
were doubtless his intended victims.
Before play began he went to
the notice board, where was dis.
played a notice warning passengers
about professional gamblers. He re-
moved the notice and, with a smile,
placed II on the table in front Of
the players, telling them to take a
good look at that!
A greater danger than the male
shark is the woman decoy, either
FOR Turing a man into the gambling
net-or something worse. The gang
marks its prey down early during
the trip, possibly on the landing
stage where he is observed bidding
farewell to his wife and family and
friends. b

Bronze Relics Found
Near Big Welsh

Some interesting relics of the
Bronze Age in Great Britain
have been discovered near Ebb
Vale, the site Of the famous
Welsh steel works, says a recent
issue of the Metal Industry.
Some quarrymen, while get
ting road material for the local
district council at Beaufort, a
neighboring village, lifted a
huge flat boulder. in 4 small
cavity Of which they found
nearly dozen implements
fashioned like chisels. These
proved to be of solid bronze.
Archaeologists consider that
these relics, which are the first
of their kind known to have
been discovered in the district,
represent a period at least as
remote as 1000 B. c. The
specimens arc to be Offered to
