Substitute Reported and Placed
on the Calendar.

That Part Which, it Was Claimed, Pro-
vided for the Presence of Troops at the
Polls, Stricken Ont - Penal Offences
SImplifed - Punishments Modified.
Other Alterations Made.
WASHINGTON, Aug. - The substi-
tute for the Lodge election bill was re-
ported. to the senate Thursday by Mr..
Hoar, and placed on the calendar. 1t il
seventeen pages shorter than the bill
which passed the house. Among the
changes which the senate committee
made are the following:
All reference to that section of the
revised statutes which, it was claimed,
provides for the presence of troops at
the polls, was stricken ont, so that there
is no change from the present law in
that respect.
The house-to-house canvass provided
for in the house bill was stricken out.
The provisions for drawing juries by
commissioners was omitted, leaving the
law as at present on books.
The penal offenses were simplitied,
and made misdemeanors instead of fell
Onies.
Inc punlSnmenUS were mOulneu, Jn6
highest punishment imposed being three
years Imprisonment and fine of 81 900,

The judge of the circuit court, before
whom application is made for the APP
pointment of supervisors, is authorized
to appoint as supervisors any persons he
may see fit, not being confined in his Sc
lection to the list published by the chief
supervisor.
In cases where ballots are cast in the
wrong box they are not to be counted,
unless the tally-sheet shows that the
votes for congressman do not equal the
number Of names ON the poll list, then
enough of the votes so wrongly cast
shall be added to the tally-sheet to
make the total equal to the whole mum
Der of votes shown to be cast.
Where the election officers refuse to
administer oaths to voters applying
therefor, it is provided in the bill that
the supervisors shall administer the
oath and keep a record thereof But
no effort shall be made to have the vote
thus refused cast, the object being
merely to preserve the testimony of the
application and refusal.

The Meeting of the ADti-Lottery League
at Baton Rouge.
BATON ROUGE, La, Aug. The anti
lottery league met in convention here
Thursday afternoon. There were be-
tween 400 and 800 delegates present, in
Guiding the delegates to the Farmers
Alliance and about 200 who came in on
a special train from New Orleans. T.
f. Bell, of Caddo, was elected presi-
dent, and the appointment of a vice
president from each parish was author
lied to be made by the parish delega-'
tioas Committees We're appointed on
resolutions, on address to the people of
the United States, on memorial to the
president and to congress, requesting
the enactment of the legislation against
lotteries, and the appointment of an eX-
ecutive committee of twenty-nine to
conduct the anti-lottery campaign.
President Adams, Of the State Farm
ers union, being invited to seat on the
platform, briefly acknowledged the
compliment He said that it was the
fundamental principle of his order that
honest men should rule the state. God
never intended that anything in the
shape of lottery enterprise should
manage her affairs. The Farmers
union stood squarely shoulder to shoul-
der with the anti-lottery league in its
fight, and would stand up to the line no
matter where the blow fell. Our order
has unanimously passed a resolution in
dorsing the expressions in my message
on the lottery question, and we Will
stand true to our colors to the last. A
resolution was adopted thanking the
alliance for its efforts against the lot
