M Whitaker, proprietor of the Quality TailOrs on Main straat, was arrested on a warrant charging him with conducting a lottery in con ducting a lottery in connection with his suit club drawing on every Sat urdav night. The arrest grew out Of the fact that on last Saturday night seven of his customers went into the shop and asked if the drawing had taken place and they were informed that it had. They asked who drew the suit and were told. They then asked to see the box containing the numbers to see if their numbes were in the box. They were refused this request and one of the number took the box and an examination was made and 1t was discovered that none of the num- bers held by the men who were Tn the shop were in the box. They had paid in from $11 to S27. When they discovered that their numbers were not in the box they made a demand for the return of the money that was paid in and it was refused them. 9th CTS heard of the affair yesterday and made demands, but the money was refused and one of the number then filed a complaint against him.
