after Alleged frauds.

WASHINGTON june is. Several rival to-
bacco manufacturers have complained TO
the postmaster general that Sullivan Broth
ers of Middletown, o., are using the mails in
conducting fraudulent business Sullivan
Brothers are the manufacturers of the spear
head chewing tobacco, and have advertised
extensively that on the first day of July they
will distribute $50 900 in prizes to parties
having the largest number of spearhead
tags The rival manufacturers say that the
scheme partakes Of the nature of lottery,
and that money orders and registered
letters should be withheld from
them at once. The postmaster general is
now considering the matter. Should he de-
eide against Sullivan Brothers. it would
seem chat they will save the amount of their
prizes and thus defraud their patrons to that
extent and should he decide in their favor,
the alleged lottery scheme, from the noto-
riety it has and will have attained, will work
to their pecuniary benefit SO that whichever
way the matter is decided, it would seem
that Sullivan Brothers are to be benefited
