EXPRESS COMPANIES PROHIBITED.
They Cannot Now Under the Law
Carry Lottery Matter.

They Cannot Now Under the Law
Carry Lottery Matter.
Assistant Attorney General Thomas of
the Post Office Department has issued the
following statement in regard to the law
prohibiting express companies from carry
ing lottery matter:
by virtue of this act 1t is made purisha-
bic by Imprisonment for term not more
than two years or fine of not more than
81 900, or both, to cause to be brought to
this country from abroad or cause to be
carried from one state to another in the
United States any paper, certificate, ticket,
or advertisement concerning lottery. This,
of course, will effectually prevent the con-
veyance of such matter between sta es or
the bringing it into this country from other
nations by express companies or common
carriers between the states. But the most
important provision of the bill, in the opin-
ion of the postal authorities, is the last
section thereof, which reads as follows:
'"That the powers conferred upon the
Postmaster General by the statute of 1890,
chapter 90S, section 2, are hereby extended
and made applicable to all letters or other
matter sent by mail
The second section of the act of Septem-
Der 10. 1890, here referred to- provides that
the Postmaster General may, upon evil
dence satisfactory to him that any one is
conducting a lottery or similar enterprise,
may forbid the payment of money orders
or the delivery of registered letters to him.
Here the authority given ended, and under
the act as it heretofore stood the depart
ment could not and did not interfere with
ordinary matter under seal, though direct
ed to a person known to be conducting a
lottery or fraud. Hence the parties who
have heretofore been forbidden the money
order and registry systems of the Post
Office Department have correspondent with
their patrons with their wculd-be pat
rons under seal through the mails, inclos-
ing all their literature and giving instruc-
lions to procure express money orders in
stead of postal money orders and send
them in sealed letters by mail, all Of which
matter, thus under seal, the department
was compelled to deliver to the addresses
though they we're known to be violating
the law. In this way the department has
matter and express money orders for in
vestment in them. and yet has been de-
prived of the revenues it would have de-
rived from the postal money orders that it
would otherwise have issued.
The section above quoted from the act Of
March 2, 1895, clothes the Postmaster Gem
eral with power to meet and eradicate this
evil 1t authorizes him 20 refuse to de-
liver to a party who, he finds upon evil
dence satisfactory to him, is conducting
lottery or fraud through the mails, any
tered or not, and to have it returned to the
senders where known. or to the dead letter
office, If unknown, marked fraudulent"
1t Is confidently predicted that this new
power conferred upon the Postmaster Cen
eral will greatly tend to suppress the lot
terry traffic in our country, which, up to
this time, has been scotched nut not killed.
