but supplied them with hardtack and
canned food. saying that he had no
authority to furnish wine. Surgeon

finally succeeded in obtaining suitable
food for those who were i'll. He asserts

will be lucky.
Hearing that number OF other sick
soldiers were to be sent aboard her, the

stated that he was informed by General
Lawton that his protest showed lack OF
discipline, and that an officer had been
appointed to see how many additional

Serious Blow to the Town of Colorado
springs-Eight Blocks Burned.
Colorado Springs, Colo, Oct. A.
This city had a visitation of fire this
afternoon which threatened for four
hours to destroy the entire business
district. The wind was blowing at the
rate OF As miles an hour from tho
southwest when the fire started at the
Denver 4 Rio GIande freight depot, at
the foot Of Cucharis street, at 2:l0 r.
NJ, and the flames spread with great
rapidity. A strip four blocks long
from north to south, and two blocks
wide from east to west, has been burned
over, but at this hour the confagration
is believed to be under control. The
flames are still leaping high over the
burnt district, but the wind has died
down, and there is no doubt that the
fire engines, which have come from
Denver and Pueblo in response to APP
peals for aid, will be able to confne
the flames within the present limits.
The Antlers hotel, one of the largest
in the West, three lumber yards and
two blocks Of business houses have been
destroyed. In round numbers the loss
is estimated at $l,000.0 600, and insur-
ance at one-half Of that amount.

A BIG LOTTERY.
Government Enriched by
n Gambling scheme
(From the london Mail. ]

(From the London Msil.)
The Australian race lottery in which
Mr. Stoddart, captain of the English
cricketers, won 91 800 the other day, is
one of the most extraordinary gambling
schemes in the world. 1t is best known
as "Tattersalrs Sweeps" and has been in
existence for very many years at the an
tipodes The breath of scandal has never
touched it, and the drawings for the
bigger events are supervised by com
mittee of leading citizens and pressmen
of the city in which 1t is al the time To-
Gated.
Gorge Adams, the organizer, makes 1t
a business to get up sweeps on all the
chief Australian races, and owing 10 the
strong support he receives, is enabled to
give prizes that even singly would be
taken as modest fortunes by most peo-
ple 1t has been estimated that during
a twelvemonth s1500O00 of the public's
money passes through Adams hands.
Take the Melbourne Cup, for instance,
On this race the big sweep of 100000 sub
scribers at 81 each, and the prize for
drawing the horse that wins the cup is
100000 The holder of the second horse
ticket receives &7500 and G2500 goes to
the third horse ticket. In addition. some
thousands of pounds are distributed
among those who get horses whether
they start in the race or not, and there
are hundreds of cash prizes, ranging
from elOO to the modest FLYER each.
On this race there will be other sweeps
at prices to suit the most humble con-
trib,ltor. Two consultations as they are
termed. of so, 600, at half a sovereign
each. and one of 100000 at shillings
each.
All through the year racing IS going
on in Australia, where the horse is idol
ized and nearly every week there is a
sweep. AS mentioned previously, no
doubt has ever been cast on the honesty
of the organizer who deducts ten per
cent. from all the winnings, so as to re-
coup himself for expenditure and exer-
ton. He employs as many clerks as a
large bank, spends thousands of pounds
annually in advertising, and now holds in
| his possession nearly ESQ, 600 worth of
unclaimed prizes.
Legislation has time after time been
put into force to wipe out '"Tattersall's y
| but without success. The New South
| Wales government, by an act of Parlia-
ment. drove Adams from Sydney, and he
without delay, settled in Brisbane. After
| twelve months location there the
! Queensland parliament did the same
! thing, and Hobart was the next sight re-
moved to, where the sweeps are merrily
! conducted now. Under the patronage in
person of the, prominent citizens The
| Australian postal laws compel that all
| letters containing value must be regis
| tered, and it has ybeen stated that Tat
J tersalrs brings e10,O00 annually in rev.
| enue to the Golfers OF the colony, where
| its offices are. t7.,,a,
