NAY LOTTERY TICKETS BE IMPORTED.

Readers Of the newspapers fully appreciate the
efforts Of the Administration to root out the lottery
business In this country The attention of the Naval
Officer of this port has been called to another side OF
the question: which Is interesting and Important and
was reported yesterday be under settlement at Wash
ingon. The question is whether foreign lotteries have
legal right import their tickets TO this country for
sale here 1t came up few days ago, when an agent
of German lottery company applied for the release
Of four large packages of lottery tickets which he had
declared among his effects. The agent gave his name
as A. Jaranbouky. Special Deputy Naval Oficer har-
rison W. Gourley declined to pass the tickets, and
Naval Oficer Theodore b. willis sustained his action.
Mr. Willis and Mr.. Gourley maintain that Congress
passed law for the purpose Of destroying the lottery
business in this country, which law prohibits tho use
of the United states mall for carrying lottery tickets
or advertisements. But clause In the new tariff
can be applied this kind Of case, which forbid,
the importation Of articles Of obscene or immoral
nature. Lottery tickets would come under the Latter
4 large number OF agents OF German and foreign
lotteries who had heard OF this step at tho Naval
Office called on Mr.. Willis on Tuesday and protested
against his acton

WILL HE BE SUSPENDED FROM TIE EXCHANGED
Philip H. Minis, q popular member OF the Stock Elk
change since the consolidation with the Open Board IN
1869, was brought before the Committee Of Arrange
ments on Tuesday. In the morning dealinssSr. MINIS
entered the Union Pacific group and, after asking what
was bid sold 100 shares at As 12 and Immediately so
another hundred shares at 46. There was an instant
commoton because several brokers were willing to buy
at 46 12, although they had no formal bids on the
door, and the next sales were at that figure In the
testimony by the subcommittee was not proved
absolutely that there no bids unaccepted when
Mr. Minis made the lowest price for the day, although
there was little doubt that Mr.. Minis thought that he
had "cleared the foor.' After two hours session
the committee had not reached conclusion. although
1t was quickly learned that tho reason for this announce
ment was that the Governing Committee before which
the charges must be tried will not meet for two weeks
In these circumstances 1t considered best for tho
subcommittee, which has little real authority beyond
presenting the charges, to suspend its decision. lis
decision was, therefore, suspended:
The matter will be brought before the next regular
meeting of the governors, on November II, ana
Mr.. Minis will probably be suspended from tne
privileges Of the Exchange for period not exoeconS
twelve months. In view OF the suspension Oh Chares
H. Foster TOY similar offence, 1t Is understood TO %
the unanimous opinion Of the subcommittee that It's
dignity must be sustained.
