A NEW LOTTERY SCHEME. Among the
many ex pedients suggested by fnancers to the
Treasury Department, for providing funds, is
a novel plan, proposed by a prominent New
Yorker, advising the government to negotiate
a loan OF five hundred millions, by selling
lottery tickets at atty dollars each, to be drawn
once year for fifty years, the highest prize
being two hundred thousand dollars. This
scheme. the originator promises, will not only
secure the fl We hundred millions, but at the
expiration Of the fifty years realize profit to
the government Of seventeen hun drsd and sew
enty millions five hundred dollars. Unfortu-
nately, however, for his arithmetic, a calcula.
item made In the Treasury Department sho VS.
that instead Of profit the government would
lose over six hundred millions, and the lottery
scheme Is not likely to be adopted.
