Crusade Against Lotteries.

Washington, June IA thorough
enforcement of the anti-lottery law is
urged on postmasters and all other
postal employees in a general order pro-
mulgated by Postmaster General Cor
telyou.
1t calls on all employees to examine
mail matter, especially publications,
with the greatest care consistent with
prompt transmission and delivery and
to withdraw or exclude all such relat-
ing to lotteries and like enterprises.
Many postmaste~s, the order adds,
have been found Negligent in this re-
gard. as well as in the enforcement of
fraud orders against lotteries in for
eign countries.
The order says that the terms of the
law bar endless chain" enterprises,
so-called gift concerns" or similar en-
terprises Offering prizes dependent
upon lot or chance, including guess
ing" or estimating" contests for
prizes, as well as drawings and raffles
of every kind, whether general or 10.
cal, for money or otherwise, for private
gain or in aid of charitable, educational
or religious objects. Publications., cir
culars. cards or pamphlets containing
advice or other information relating
to such enterprises are required to be
withdrawn from the mails.
