cOntended that the editorial and financial
departments should be kept distinct, and
that in all matters the publication OF the

.Jay Gould. the Money King. Goes Nearly

Crazy.
lisa positive fact that jaw Gould, the
millionaire, nearly went wild the other
day because he could not find one cent
that he lost by pure accident.
1t appeared that last week jay Gould had
occasion 10 cross one Of the Brooklyn
ferries. and on entering the gate he handed
the ferry keeper his fare, and when seated
he was noticed 10y one Of the deck-hands
TO he very much worried over losing some
thing. On making on inquiry, the boat
hand learned that through pure negligence
he had discovered that instead OF giving
the ticket-seller one cent he by mistake
handed HIM twO-cent piece.
Now. If the loss of one cent should worry
nan worth hundreds Of millions. why
should not person feel sore whose income
is small when he discovers that by not
using the proper amount of good discre-
tior he foOlishly throws away five
dollars when he buys a thirteen-dOllar suit
of lothes if he happens 20 buy Of any OF

BATON ROUGE, La, June 2G.-The lmpor-
tance Of the victory gained bv the lottery
Yesterday in the House cannot be over
estimated. The conference of the ants
was held this morning. Governor Nichols
being present. Senator Montgomery made
a proposition TO accept the offer OF compro-
mise made by the prosecution some DAYS
ago. II is to submit the lottery question
to white primaries based on an entirely lc-
GAL election. II the majority Is IN favor OF
the lottery and an extra session. II Will be
called. and the matter submitted to the
people ut the general election in 1892, II
the LEGISLATURE so decides. The time sug-
gested for the holding of primaries ls April
or May Of next year. and for the calling OF
the extra session thirty or forty DAYS
thereafter. At tho white Democratic
primaries under the terms OF this propo-
sition voters shall vote upon: First for
or against the lottery amendment; second,
for or against the calling Of an extra ses-
sion for the purpose of considering the
amendment. This primary election snail
be held under the law passed at this ses-
sion Of the Legislature legahZing Whl:e
primaries and throwing around them all
the safeguards necessary for obtaining an
honest expression Of the sentiment OF the
people. Governor Nichols SAYS he Il; al
wavs willing TO abide by what the white
Democrats Of the State shall say.
Morris when questioned on the subject
said that the simplest solution OF the
question would be to pass the lottery bill
at this session and to pass also the election
law for the white primaries as suggested,
and that he is willing to give his guarantee
in writing to accept the decision of the
white primaries. and agrees TO give up his
proposition If rejected by white people
and this method obviates the necessity
and expense of an extra session. The lot
terry amendment was sent to the Senate To-
dav and an effort made TO suspend the
rules for reference to a committee, but OBJ
lection being made. the matter goes over.
