The Lottery People Organizing for q Cam
paign Against His denomination.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. Dec. 11.-A new element
has entered the field against the renomina-
tion of President Harrison. 1t is the lot
terry. A few nights ago q conference of the
leading lottery agents and lobbyists was
held in this city at the residence of Re-
publican United States Senator. who is
we'll known as an enemy of President Har
rison. A perfect compact was arranged
between the representatives of the great
octopus and the opponents of the President
for political work. The old lottery men
are to secure delegations from the South,
who are to vote for anybody
rather than Harrison" The agents of
the Mexican and Canadian lotteries are
to also energize the opposition to President
Harrison. A perfect understanding was
reached and work was Immediately begun.
Several Southerners employed In the ex-
ecutiye departments here have, since the
meeting, been approached by representa-
tives of the lotteries and offered cash In-
ducements to either 60 into their own dis
tricts and enter the contest for delegate
ships, or secure the selection of friends
whom they can control and who will see
that President Harrison is not renomi-
mated. One cOlored man was offered 81. 600
if he would secure one delegate from Texas,
while another man was offered $500 cash
to control delegate from another South
ern State.
IL will create no surprise among those
who have watched the course of legislation
since President HarrIson's Inauguration to
learn of this effort to terminate his presi-
Dental career at the end of this term. but
it will doubtless create indignation on the
part of the people throughout the country.

who, more than any other, Is responsible
for the law which, in a national way, is at
last wiping the lottery business out of ex-
istence. and who promises his every effort
to Its complete extirpatIon.
At this conference in the residence of the

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Every opening of
Congress is marked by some striking meet
ing of Congressman who. twenty five years
ago. served In opposing armies and which
occasion is marked by some expression of
cordiality and mutual regard which would
show that the war is over. On last Tues
day. while the members were standing
around. waiting to draw their seats. Con-
gresham Wheeler. who. during the war,
commanded the Southern cavalry. came
across Congressman Belknap of Michigan,
who was, during the war; one of the most
daring scouts of the Union army. On one
occasion Belknap had particularly distin-
guished himself by entering Wheeler's
lines, spending weeks with him and gain
ing most important information. Wheeler,
on learning who his visitor had been. was
SO chagrlned and mortified that be offered
a large reward for Belknaps head. When
they met on Tuesday Wheeler Immediately
recognized Belknap, and said: Twenty
five years ago | wanted Your head. Now
want il still more. for if 1 am made chair
man OF military affairs shall want You at
the head of the Republican minority to as
sist me in my work on that committee"

MADRID. Dec. 11.-Much indignation is
felt here at the news of the atrocious treat
ment of slaves in Morocco. and especially
of the children captured in recent raids by
the Sultan. 1t is said that the Sultan is
preparing for q similar raid early in 1892
upon tribes that have not complied with
his orders. Advices from Fez state that OF
hundreds of children sold at Fez since the
return of the Sultan from his recent expe-
dition all had been subjected to barbarous
treatment. The Spanish minister will
probably be instructed to demonstrate with
the Sultan.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1l-Attorney-ge general

restriction upon such action. and it Will be
