tFrom New York Worldly
Ihe stories that have recently become
current concerning the development of
George Vanderbilt's schemes with refer
ence to his residence and property in
North Carolina have been of such char
acter as TO excite good deal of wonder
and speculation. The house that young
Mr.. Vanderbilt is having built will be,
1t Is said, one of the most costly private
country residences in the entire country,
ana the surrounding park that will in-
clude $4,000 acres of land will be laid
out under the direction of landgarden-
er, who has been instructed to spare no
expense in getting it into very faithful
likeness OF one of the private parks of
old England. The Vanderbilt house
will be two miles from the nearest resi-
dence, and private railroad for the use
of George Vanderbilt and his retainers
has been constructed, or is in course of
construction, to reach the nearest rail-
road station, which is twenty five miles
away. The bits of description concerning
the house itself, the proposed furnishing
aud equipment of it, call up ideas
OF extravaganza and splender which can
only be gotten in another way by reading
the "Arabian Nights" 1t is stated, in
fact, that young Vanderbilt has become
| so fascinated with the idea of establish
ing North Carolina estate that his
| thoughts scarcely concern themselves
with anything else, and he has spent and
seems to be willing to spend any amount
of mouey to bring everything to the
most mplete imaginable point. One
statement which must be an exaggera.
tion is to the effect that when everything
is finished and ready for the occu-
| patton and use of the owner, the entire
expenditure will amount to $4,000, 900
This is half of George Vanderbilts entire
fortune, and from that point of view the
story seems preposterous. This much il
certain, that the Vanderbilt family gene
rally are very much opposed to youue

protested against his going on with it
but up 10 i ito the protests seem to have
had no effect.

TO DOWN LOTTERIES.
Lottery Tickets Coming Into the Union
Must Bear Duty.
(By the United Press.)


WASHINGTON, D. c., April 24.-The
lottery companies received a black eye in
the Treasury Department to-day, which
it is thought will have the effect of driv-
ing them out of business. Having been
debarred from using the U. S. mail,
branches of lottery companies which
formerly did business in the United
States, have been established in Mexico.
Under the law printed matter from Mex
leo cannot be refused entirely and each
month lottery tickets have been pre-
sentci at the custom houses
along the Mexican frontier for an ad-
mission into the United States. They
have heretofore been admitted without
question, but assistant Secretary Spauld-
Ing has hit upon novel plan to prevent
their coming into this country. He has
decided that there is no law to prevent
lottery tickets from being admitted as
printed matter, but he instructs the
Custom Officers to assess duty upon
them at the rate of % per cent. adva'
loren of their face value under para
graph 423 schedule NJ Of the Mckinley
bill, which provides for this rate OF out!
upon call printed matter not especial!
provided for"
Tickets of the value of ten dollar
under this decision Will have to pa.
$3.50 customs due. This high rate o
duty will, it is thought, practically pro
hibit their importation. Being debarre'
from the United States and Express Com
panies and transportation lines, the lot
tery companies will find it difficult
dispose of their wares in the Unite
States. The case came in connection
with the importation OF tickets OF tn
: Juarez Mexican lottery company.
