ALEXANDRIA, Va, October 4.-The Ga
=ette says the committee of ticket holders
appointed to examine the tickets remaining
in the wheel after the drawing of the Mont
pelier Female Humane Association, last
Friday morning, met this morning in the
room OF the association in which the wheel,
after it had been closed and sealed. WAS
deposited for safekeeping when the draw
ing was over. As soon as the wheel was
seen it was apparent that at least
bushel OF brass tubes containing tickets
had been put in since it left the stand, for
they were at least ten inches higher than .
marx that had been put upon the wheel
previously, by one of the ticketholders,
though the seal was unbroken and had
the same stamps that had been put
upon it publicly. They were those
OF the butt end Of knife and current
gold coin which could easily have been
put upon new wax. In an investigation
which ensued it was discovered that the ar
rangement of the drawing had been intrust-
ed solely to parties from New York, and
that all the money arising from the sale of
tickets, except some $4,000 or $4,000, had
been left in New York, and was not subject
to the draft of the officers of the association.
The parties present then appointed COM
mittee to proceed at once to New York and
tr e a.
could be gotten hold of, After this they
adjourned to meet again tonight. The ex-
citement on the street in consequence of
this discovery was by no means limited,
and the subject was the topic of general
conversation. 1t is believed that not q
single dollar was drawn by any bona ide
ticket holder, but that the whole of it has
been swamped by New York sharpers, who
are accused of the whole fraud.
