GOT JUST ENOUGH.

Tho Lottery Bill Passes the Louisiana
Legislature by Vote of "a to AZ.
New ORLEANS. July 3.-The lottery
bill passed the senate Tuesday by vote
of "a to 10, the bill getting the exact vote
necessary to pass it, as it required two
thirds majority. The measure is now
passed as far as the legislature is con-
cerned, and cannot be changed. The
governor has no power Of veto, but 1t
will be probably presented to him for
his signature.
Numerous amendments were pro-
posed but all defeated. The bill as
passed extends the charter of the Louis
lana state lottery until 1919, on the pay
ment of an annual license of 81, $50, 600
or $31 ,250, 900 for the entire period. Be-
fore it becomes operative, however, 1t
must be submitted to the popular vote
in April, 1892, in the form of consti-
tutional amendment.

The work of smothering or putting

commenced. The mino cannot be flood
ed and an effort is being made to
smother the flames. 1t IS thought there
is only one way in which the property

part of the vein which has never been
reached will be within reach.
The coroner's inquest over the bodies
of the two men brought out of the slope
will begin Monday. 1t will be one OF
the most important held in this district.
1t will be the aim of the coroner to
try and test the entire work from the

What is most needed here now is re-
lief for the twenty-one widows and sew
enty-seven orphans of the victims OF the
explosion. Money is needed badly az
there is much suffering.

Prospects Of Strike In England Gradu-

The telegraphers' movement, which
mas hitherto been confined to London is
extending to the provinces and the pros
poets Of strike are increasing. Tho
London telegraphers claim that they are
working from 10000 to $4,000 hours
overtime each week, for which they re-
ceive no compensation. Unlike the
American telegraphers, the British
members of the craft have been success
full in previous strikes against injustice
and oppression and with the advantage
of that experience and the benefit Of
good cause, together with the popular
sympathy they have enlisted they are
confident of victory if they are driven TO
extreme measures by the obstinacy OF
the postmaster general.
