" Maryland Consolidated Lotteries, Baltimore,
Nd, June 20, 1s55.-The Commissioner Of the Mary
land State Lotteries has deemed it his duty to caution

drawn daily under the superintendent of the Com
missioner elected by the people Of the state, under
the new Constitution to examine and approve the
schemes and attend to the drawings.
All the tickets in these lotteries and all certificates
of packages of tickets have the autographed sigma
ture F. X brennan, general agent for the contractor
office Of the Maryland Consolidated Lotteries, Balt
