the concern, and that he had no conversation
with him at all.
Justice Ledwit stated that the only point
before him now to decide was, whether the
ticket produced in evidence was a lottery
ticket and asked Sergeant Schoonmaker under
what section of the statute the arrest was made.
MIR. Schoonmaker claimed that the arrest was
made under the twenty sixth section of article
four, volume two, of the fourth edition Revised
Statutes of the State OF New York, in which any
lottery, or enterprise partaking of the nature of
a lottery, under any name whatsoever, is deemed
a misdemeanor.
Assistant District Attorney Bedford stated that
he could not regard this enterprise as a lottery
in the meaning of the statute. A lottery is
where money is won by the chance drawing of
numbers, and where there are prizes and
blanks. This is q distribution; there is no
chance; every ticket drawing prize of more or
less value; il is not game of chance.
Sergeant Schoonmaker claimed that he had
been informed by some parties that there would
be blanks.
Counsel for the enterprise claimed that such
was not the case, and that every ticket held
would draw prize.
There being no further testimony in the case,
Justice Ledwith decided, in accordance with
the opinion of Mr.. Bedford, that this enter
prise could not be regarded as a lottery in the
meaning of the statute and chat the complaint
must be dismissed. The case was thereupon
dismissed and MIR. Regan discharged.-M Y.

BLOCKADE RUNNERS.

The Harriet Lane aud Pelican, Formerly
Rebel Blockade Runners, I'm Possess
sion of United States Revenue Officers
at Havana,
1t will be remembered that during the late
war the United States revenue cutter Harriet
Lane was captured by the Rebels off Calves
ton. Subsequently, she was turned into
blockade runner, and managed to reach Havana
with cargo of cotton on board. The Pelican,
another blockade runner, also loaded with cot
ton, eluded the vigilance of the United States
cruisers and reached the same place. Being
closely watched by United States steamers, they
were unable to continue their voyage, the cotton
was disposed of TO parties in Havana and at the
close of the war the vessels were made over to
the United States Government.
On the 18th of last month Captain Faunce, of
the United States revenue service, accompanied
by Second Lieutenant Delsn, also of the revenue
service and the officers of the Merchant Marine,
left this city in the steamer Columbia for
Havana, for the purpose OF bringing the Harriet
Lane and Pelican to this port.
ON reaching Havana they found the floating
sectional dock undergoing repairs; and as the
vessels will have to be placed on 1t for repairs
before they can be moved 1t Is probable they
will not be ready TO leave before ABOUT the 10Th
of next month. The machinery,ot the two YES
sells is being repaired under the supervision
of Chief Engineer John Robinson, OF the Mer-
chant Marine.
The United States revenue cutter Hugh
| McCulloch, Captain Merriman commanding,
| from New Orleans, is now lying at HAVANA and
| will act as convoy TO the Harriet Lane shu
| Pelican during their voyage to New YORK

RECONSTRUCTION.

WASHINGTON, February 5.-The new plan of
adjustment, in the shape of amendments to the
Constitution, arranged by Governor Orr and
other State Executives, was intended to be
kept from the people, in order to prevent tor
awhile, at least, any public discussion OF its
merits until the prominent members of the
several Southern Legislatures could be con-
suited. For this reason, probably, Governor
Orr and his associates in the transaction de-
clined to furnish a copy of the proposition for
publication. 1t appears, however, in the Rich
mond Enquirer of Monday.

Examination In the Case Of the Enter
prise of the New York Hospital and
DIspensary-Are Gift Enterprises Lot
teries g-DecisiOn OF Justice Ledwith.
James G. Regan, a clerk in the employ of the
New York Hospital and Dispensary tor Women
and Children, was arrested by Sergeant Schoon-
MAKER, of the Fifteenth precinct police, and
arraigned before Justice Ledwirh on Saturday,
as noticed in the Herald of Sunday, charged
with selling lottery tickets in violation of the
statute.
The case was set down for examination yester-
day afternoon, and at A O'clock the examination
was gone into, Mr.. Charles H. Kitchell appear
ing for the defendant, and Assistant District
Attorney Cunning S. Bedford, Jr., for the peo.
ple Sergeant SchoOnmaker was the only per-
son examined. He said that he made the arrest
because he thought the enterprise was a lottery,
and was in violation of the laws of the State;
that he was led to think so from the statements
contained in the printed bills and circulars dis
ributed from the establishment, No. 653 Broad
way, and from statements made to him by
persons engaged there, that every ticket-holder
would not get prize
Counsel for the defense objected to the intro
Iuctlon OF any statements made by outside par
ties as evidence.
The objection was sustained by Justice Led
Win, who instructed witness to the effect that
ne could not offer In evidence any statements
MADE by parties other than the defendant; that
| II the defendant had made such statements to
witness, or had made them In the hearing OF
witness, 1t could be admitted,

The French Claims ON Count BIsmark.
The Augsburg Gazette of recent date says:-
On the oath of July NJ. Benedict, Ambassador of
France, made a communication to Count Bis
mark, of which the following are the main fea-
tures;-The Netherl and territories having be-
longed till then 10 the eX-German Confederation,
TO be excluded from any new political union
with Germany, and Prussia to Tenounce her
right of garrisoning Luxembourg. Retrocession
70 .France of the territories of Sarrelouis, of
sarrobruck, and its coal basin, both obtained
by Prussia at the second peace of Paris. Ces.
sion TO France of the Rhenan Bavaria and
Hesse. the sovereigns of those States to receive
Concentrations in Germany.
THOSE territorial claims embraced a much
larger extent of territory than the one France
was compelled to restore to Germany in 1915,
Il, Getting possession of the Rhenan Bavaria
and the coal district of the Sarre, France Would
have obtained two tortresses, Landau and
Serrelouis, and also Mayence, the bulWark of
Germany. Moreover, once LuXum bourg having
ceased to belong to the German Federation, Hoi-
land would have had no longer any interest
IN nav the expenses of the fortress of the
Grand Duchy, which would then have to be
garrisoned by the French or demolished.
Tbe Augsburg Gazette adds that IL Is a mat
tor of public notorietY, that the territorial
Concentrations claimed by France have not been
wi1hdraWn, and that the day when France will
deem proper to press them again is perhaps not
far distant.
