NEW LoTrrIsY LAW.
A Bill TO EscIudc the Introduction of
Lottery Tickets.


Lottery Tickets.
Washington, July 20 "A strong de-
mand is being made by religious bodies
for the house to pass the anti-iottery
bill which has been Introduced In the
senate by Mr.. Frederick Of the judicial
ry committee. who reported the bill to
the house Friday. Has received hum
dreds of letters and petitions during
the session urging the passage of the
bill. and the other members Of the com
mittee have been the recipients Of much
correspondence on the subject. Most
of the petitions have come from reli-
gious organizations, but many indlvid-
uals have written. While the present
anti-lottery laws were strongly drawn
to prevent the use Of the mails for lot
terry business, the measure now before
congress goes much further, invoking
the authority of congress over foreign
commerce ana commerce between the
states. The penalties provided for by
the pending bill are very heavy, the
first odense being punishable by i'm
prisonment for not more than two
years or by a fine OF not more than
$1,000, or both, and after the first Of
Tense by such imprisonment only. 1t
embraces persons who cause to he
brought within the United states from
abroad. or deposited or carried In the
mails. or carried from one state to
another. any paper purporting TO be
or represent n ticket share OF interest
In any lottery or similar enterprise. or
who cause any advertisement OF such
an enterprise TO be brought into the
United States. deposited in the mails.
or carried from one state TO another.
II stipulates that no part of the bill
shall be construed as repeating any
former act for some sllilar purposes.
Some opposition was raised In the
judiciary by those who argued that
fringement upon personal rights. AS
n concession to this sentiment an
amendment was inserted providing that
the contraband goods must be brought
into the United States for disposing of
the same. Whether the bill receives
consideration from the house this ses-
sion depends upon how long the ses-
sion is protracted. Its friends are con-
fldent that 1t will eventually become
law. They point out that the publi-
cations have been made to the effect
that 1t would interfere with church
fairs and similar enterprises, are UNI
founded, since congress has no juris-
dictipn In the matter except over the
mainland In the matter OF commerce
between the states or between foreign
nations and the United States. with
local raltters in the states II can not
Interfere.
