Smith to make an investigation. He had heard that a coterie ol New York gamblers, whose names are familiar to every newspaper reader, was doing a brisg business in a cottage within a stone's throw of the Nassau Hotel. Gos: had it that a young man of laryg means and a fondness for roulette lost §30,000 in one night's piay re- cently, and that losses of §10,000 and $5,000 were Irequent occurences. After writing a letter to Chief of Police Charles W. Hewlett of Long Beach village, calling his attention 1o the stories, Mr. Smith requested Sher- iff*Stephen P. Pettit of Nassau councy to makea personal investigatiou. Sheriff Pettit camme to Long Beach with Deputy Charles Wilhams and ed every cottage to which sus- picion had pointed. “l had heard the talk going around that foolish young men,were being bilked,” sald the Sneriff “and-1 know that people were talking about tue plan of three of the most notorious gamblers in New York fo establizh at Long Beach a place similar to the one run for years by Richard Can- field at Saratoga. 1 visited Long Beach to see if there was any truth in the talk. I found that there is no organized gaumbling going-on at the | resort. Sheriff Finds No Evidence, “With Mr. Williams, my deputy, I visited four cottages just outside the corpoyate limits of the village that had been pointed out to me as pos- sible;gampling -houses. I found that two of them are under constructios, unfurnished of course, and unocc pied. A third is owned by a New York banker who certainly would not permit public gambling on the prem- ises, and the fourth has not been oc- cupied for several weeks. A car taker is in charge. I made a carc- ful search of all tne cottages, look- ing for gambiing tools or signs that gambling has been going on. 1 found not the slightest evidence. “Personally. 1 have no doubt that there is gambling at Long Beach, huti if so it is a private matter—gambling | indulged in at private houses and with no outsiders permitted to take pari. That sort of thing cannot be stopped. But I am absolutely certain that theve is no public gambling house being op- erated. 1f the three gamblers whose names were mentioned are doing bus- iness they are doing it very quietly and not in a specially fitted cottage ' Village Authorities Suspicious. While the sheriff’s inquiry appeared ! to be thorough, it did not bear out iae | opinions of Long Beach residents, who continued to insist that so far as gambling goes' Long Beach is being made a new Saratoga. As a matt of fact, the village governing board, John Gerhardt, president of the vil- lage; A. H. Parsons, justice of the pedce, and David Felix, village coun- sel, have reason to believe that A cottage near the end of the boardwalic is used for gambling. The cottage i outside of the one square mile vil- lage district, and so is not within the jurisdiction of the village authoritie They have heard that about two ve ago a very shrewd young New York gambler, who is reputed to have made $300,000 within the past seven vears, advanced money to a former cafe owner well known on Broadway to open a gambling house. The young gambler’s bus quired him to stay in Manhattan, but the older man, having lost a large | fortune largely because of circumstances which ruined his iness, was able to stay in Long Bea. run the plac The patronage as been “exclusiv that is to say, none but men with a great deal of money, who could afford to lose heav- ily without imaking complaint sl otherwise creating unfavorable talk, were welcomed. In view of all this talk the village board appealed £0; District Attorney Smith and he wrote to Chief of Police Hewlett Chieef Hewlett met Sheriff Pet* when the sheriff arrived in Lo Beach.
