One Sided Gambling and a Tragic Train Crash

A German correspondent describes Ostend baccarat as a game where the bank almost always wins, warning that outsiders have little chance. In Perth Amboy a train collision killed John C. Arner, 47, president of the Perth Amboy Board of Education, as he tried to catch a Jersey City to Perth Amboy train. Several passengers were injured. The crash is blamed partly on a freight train’s lack of torpedoes on the track.
