GAMING HOUSE.
CHARGES AT AUCKLAND
Per Press Association,
AUCKLAND, Sept. 16. The police on Saturday night raided a house in Federal Street and arrested 21 men on charges of gaming. Packs of cards and a number of transparent dice were seized. In the Police Court to-day a man named Gozak was charged with being the keeper of a common gaming house, and the others with being found in a common gaming house. With the exception of two of the latter, all admitted the charge. Evidence was given that the room was specially fitted up for gambling. The dice seized were honest dice. There was no evidence that hazards were being plaved. Mr F. K. Hunt, S.M., dismissed the charge against two men who were boarders, and fined Gozak £25 and the others £5 each.
