The question is one, be contends, that should be agitated in the Press and Chancelleries of every European capital, whose gilded youth ara ruined annually in scores.

On the same day the Goolds are supposed to have committed the crime there occurred at Castollemaro the suicide of a young English and American couple on iksir honeymoon who had been ruined at Monte Carlo.

APPEAL TO THE FRENCH JOVERNMENT. Some years ago (writes a Morning Leader representative) an attempt was made to get'

French Government to put down the gam: ONE FOURRO Sant Print bling-des at Monte Carlo. An international petition was presented to the Senath and the Chamber, which set forth that through the *gambling "Monte Carlo bad become a nest of corruption and a centre of unhealthy infusaces, the deplorable effects of which were more and more" fell. The jubles attracted and retainad in the neighbouring towns a whole population of corrupt man and women living on vice and endeavouring by all means in their power to propagate.it."

THE DEATH ROLL

It is rather a remarkable fact, and would' seem to indicate that Monte Carlo has to an ⚫xtent lived down the strong opposition that wat arrayed against it. 15.0r 20 years ago, that only one book depicting its shady aida has been published during the present century. That is Les Memoires d'an Policer de Munte Carlo," printed in Paris. But there is sufficient in this to prove the place to be a disgrace to civilisation,

One has to go back to earlier works to get an

idea of the curse the Casino has been to so- ciety. The "Histoire des Crimes et Suicides' leclares that during the 15 years of the life of the gaming rooms before the records com- menced it is estimated that 1,000 suicides look place.

Glancing, through the gruesome list, one is struck by the varied ways that desperate men and women adopted to put an end to their lives. Suicide, fike crime, is imitative, so no good purpose warild be served even to indicate how some of the penniless wretcher found death,
