The lottery business Is managed with considerable

Tho regular lottery business in the city of New York
does not probably amount thousand dollars

had the entire direction of the policy business in this
city; and, although he has made sort of sale Of his

principal policy Office stands 10 still o~uel by him, and
whether directly interested must be- of the
fact that the business is t carried there. In the
policy business the chapcss about hundred per

poor people adventure their earnings and sometimes the
money received in charity in this nefarious game

often met Is still made and it may be interesting to
