 The police. at the instance of the local law and order league, made another raid on Chase's lottery headquarters In the Lamar block on Crown street yes- terday. The raid was even more suc- cessful than the previous visit made several days since. Secretary Thrasher of the law and order league was the informant In the present raid. Although considerable evidence was secured at the previous raid there was not much as Mir. Thrasher had reason to know was In the building. and consequently 1t was deemed advisable to make anoth- CT and more searching raid.At the pre- vious raid the officers did their work thoroughly and well, but owing to the presumptio on that Chase had received a | tip on the intended raid and secreted portion of his paraphernalia, It was deemed advisable to again raid the place yesterday afternoon.
 | Accordingly upon complaint of Secre- tary Thrasher another search warrant was issued by Assistant City Attorney Matthewman, and placed in the hands I 70 .,t.. at, Ca. Ina n 1nt a III ed Sergeant Driscoll and Patrolmen owen Daley and Peter Hayes upon the raid. At the request of Captain Wrinn Secretary Thrasher and Law and Order League Detective Cunningham accom- panied the officers and materially as- sisted in the raid.
 Dressed in citizens clothes the squad left police office at about o'clock and went directly to Chases place of busi- ness in the Lamar block. They thoroughly searched the place but sue ceeded in finding no traces of lottery playing or tickets in the office. Not con tent with this, however, they proceeded to search in the rooms in the building. Chase was present and showed the of- ficers about the building.
 1 Finally the party arrived in front of room IA and desired to search 1t, but Chase informed the officers that he had rented the room and had given the key to the new tenant. This explanation however, did not satisfy the officers, and Secretary Thrasher and Sergenat Driscoll decided that the door of the room should be opened. As Chase still persisted in his claims that he had no key locksmth was sent for and the door opened.
 After the officers entered the room a l thorough search was made, and two boxes, both of which contained damag- ing evidence against Chase, were dis covered. One box was found by the of- ficers, and while they were investigating its contents Detective Cunningham found over in a corner behind a door an ordinary soap box which subsequent l ly proved to contain lottery parapher- nalia. The box was on a window sill and covered over with a piece of old carpet.
 When the box was opened it was found to contain several wallets containing lottery tickets for the November and December drawings, cancelled tickets and corre spondence between Chase and the officials of the several lottery com- panies. The box which was found by l the officers contained 200 twenty-five cent lottery tickets, thirty $1 tickets, both sets being for the November draw ing, three wallets containing lottery tickets, envelopes with lottery tickets enclosed, correspondence with lottery officials and agents and tickets which had been cashed by Chase, together with the names of the persons for whom he had cashed them.
 In the box discovered by Detective Cunningham were found two books showing complete ledger accounts be- l tween Chase and his agents, and TYPO lottery tickets for the November and December drawings. The total selling price of these tickets amounts to $2,S15, there being 6,540 twenty-five cent tickets and 1,1S0 $1 tickets. All the property found was confscated, taken to police headquarters and locked up in the su- perintendent's room.
 The success of the raid redounded greatly to the credit both of the police department and the law and order league. As Secretary Thrasher said last night: "The police and league are work ing hand in hand in this matter, and the police are as much interested in the af- fair as we are ourselves. In the previous raid, as we'll as that of to-day the police did their work thoroughly, but unfor- tunately in some way Chase had evil dently secured a tip on the raid of sev- eral days ago, and secreted considerable of his lottery tickets, etc. We also searched the apartments formerly occu- | pied by Ike HartenStein, but secured l nothing there."
 After the raid had been made, the in- l formation secured and evidence were laid before City Attorney Matthewman, and another warrant charging Chase with selling lottery tickets was issued, and given to Patrolman Allan to serve. The latter soon found his man and l placed him under arrest He was taken to police headquarters, but almost im- mediately released under 5000 bonds furnished by Robert Lutz of Grown street Chase is also under indictment for gaming in connection with the other raid, and is also under $500 bonds on that charge.
