UNCLE SAM TAKES A HAND
IN PREVENTING THE SHIPMENT OF
LOTTERY TICKETS.
Deputy United States Marshal
While in an Express ofGcc.

The United States government is now
working upon plan that is likely to sup
press lotteries by confscating the
tickets shipped to local dealers by express
and holding the express companies amen
able to the anti-lottery law.
The first seizure OF this character in
Texas was made In this city on Saturday
when United States Deputy Marshal Dor
ough, armed with a warrant from Judge
Bryant Of the Federal court. called at an
express office in company with a local
dealer. to whom consignment Of lottery
tickets had been shipped. Upon presenta-
ton of the warrant at the express office
the consignment OF tickets which were in
tended to be sold in Houston was turned
over to the deputy marshal and by him
taken to Galveston, where hey were
turned over to the United States court
While the lotteries, the express c5mpa-
niles and the local dealers are all amenable
under the law no arrests have thus far
been made in this case.
II Is understood that this movement TO
prevent the handling of tickets through
the express offices Is general and If so il
will likely prove effectual.

Gle in The News this morning beiative
to visit OF the labor council TO President
Hamilton OF the Magnolia brewery II mas
been Inferred that there might be
strike by the union rnen against his
brewery.
There is not only no strike there, but
the best OF feeling prevails between the
company and the many workmen. Tao
rumor grew out OF the fact that the COM
pany had been asked to sign new con-
tract, and one that was practically
duplicate OF that now IN force at the
American brewery. II was understood
that the company had refused TO comply
and that trouble would follow Such,
however, has proved 10 be an error. The
best Of feeling does and has existed be-
tween the employees and the employers
OF the brewery. A committee was in con-
ference with the company yesterday and
the matter OF a new contract was dis
cussed in a business way. The present
agreement does not expire until the first
Of next March. and after careful can
vass Of the various interests It was decid
ell that no change should be made before
that time. reporter interviewed several
of the leading workmen and members OF
the company at the brewery to-day and
aseertained the fact that no dissension
exists Mr. Hamilton declined to sign
another contract unless an amendment
was made which would permit the COM
pany to retain in its employ four OF its
men. driver a tankman and two fire.
men who have been with the company
for the past ten years The point was
not granted and that matter has not yet
been settled.
There is 20 difference between the men
and the Brewery either as to scale Of
wages paid or hours OF labor required.
The only chance OF a difference between
the brewery aud the union brewers is for
tho latter TO demand that the brewery dis
charge men from Its employment who
and OF course would not be discharged
without cause.
We believe that in a newspaper man S
endeavor to give the latest news possible,
he should remember that he public have
rights that should be respected and that
st should be the duty of the public press
TO give a fair and unbiased report OF the
events that transplre. In order to DO
this. 10 occurs 10 us. that all sides of a
controversy Tor an alleged CONTROVERSY
should be given a patient and nou-dscrim-
