$4,000 Sweepstakes Ticket
Discarded by D. c. Winner
Second Prize Receipt Thro,cn A,cay by
Man Who Purchased 1t From
Transient for Is Gents.

The next time Paul Sokolov buys a
Sweepstakes ticket, he probably will
keep it as long as he lives!
Paul, his friends disclosed last night,
has been informed he had ticket on
the horse that ran second in the
Cambridgeshire Stakes, on which the
Irish Sweepstakes was based. But
thoughts of it are not pleasant to
Sokolov, since he says he has lost the
ticket, which, he has been advised, is
worth $4,000.
Lewis Glassman, 4210 Fourteenth
street, father-in-law of Paul's older
brother, Louis, said the youth. thinking
it valueleSs, apparently threw the
ticket away, month after the race
was run at Newmarket, England, Oc-
tober 81.
Received Word of Prize.
Only short time ago, friends said,
Sokolov received word that If he would
turn in the ticket the Irish Free State
would forward him check for second
prize money.
He is still searching for it!
According to Glassman and other
friends and relatives. Sokolov, who is
about 25, was in Los Angeles last
Summer when he bought the ticket
for 25 cents from a transient who
said he was hungry and needed money.
The transient told him he had
bought the ticket in New York some
time before at the regular price Of
$3.50, according to the story. Paul
tucked the slip away and not long
afterward returned to Washington.
Tossed Ticket Away.
He was in Glassman's house one
night after the race when Glassman
remarked that he had held ticket on
the Sweepstakes. Then, according to
Glassman, young Sokolov recalled he
also had a ticket, whereupon he pulled
it from his pocket and threw it away,
saying
Il guess this things no good now
the race has been over three or four
weeks and haven't heard anything
from it,
The matter then was forgotten until
Sokolov got a telegram from his
brother in Los Angeles asking if he
could locate the ticket and requesting
him to call him by telephone. He
made the call and the brother told
him he held a winning ticket.
According to the brothers story, as
related by Sokolov's friends, the tran
sient who sold Paul the ticket had
bought 1t himself under q fictitious
name, but had given his correct ad-

.BLANTON FAvORS
BUREAU MERGERS
Urges District Government
Changes After Secret
Budget Hearings.

More rigid economy in the District
government through reorganization
and consolidation of various bureaus
was advocated yesterday by Repre-
sentative Blanton, Democrat, of Texas
at the close of the fourth of series
of secret hearings on the 1896 NUM-
cipal budget.
Blanton declared the Commissioners
first should make a survey to deter
mine which bureaus could be con-
solidated, and then recommend the
changes to Congress for approval. He
believes thousands of dollars could be
saved annually through such a re-
organization.
Early Report Sought.
Chairman Cannon said every effort
would be made to complete the hear
ings this week so the appropriation
bill can be marked up during the
Christmas holiday period and be in
shape to report to the House soon
after Congress convenes January g.
Until that time the public will be
kept in the dark as to the budget de-
tails.
The most important estimates are
yet to be. considered. These include
those Of the public schools, the Board
of Public Welfare and highway,
police and fire departments. Tues
day has been reserved for considera-
ton of the public school budget and
Supt. Frank w. Ballou and members
Of the Board of Education have been
instructed to be prepared to sit all
day with the subcommittee.
Road Items Up Tomorrow.
Estimates of the highway depart
ment will be taken up when the COM
mittee reconvenes tomorrow at 1890
am. 1t originally had been planned
to 60 over the highway budget yes
terday, but an unexpected animated
discussion over contingent expenses
prevented the subcommittee from
calling Capt. H. c. Whitehurst, direc-
tor of highways.
After the highway and school esti-
mates are disposed of, the subcom-
mittee win consider the budgets Of
the police, fire, welfare and sewer de-
partments, and then call in civic and
business leaders who desire to be
heard.
In order to expedite the hearings,
Chairman Cannon said the subcom-
mittee would not call department
heads whose estimates do not con-
tain controversial items.

dress. The Irish Free State traced him
from New York to Los Angeles, finally
located him and learned he had sold
it to Sokolov. The hospital authori-
ties then communicated with Pauls
family in Los Angeles, according to
the story, and apprised them of young
Sokolov's fortune.
Talked to Consulate.
When Paul couldn't find the ticket,

tative Blanton, had been appointed
counsel to the Alley Dwelling Au-

act as senior consultant to the Alley
Board in addition to his regular
duties, while Brooks will serve as
daily counsel.

have been performed since Howsley's
resignation months ago by Thomas
Gillespie Walsh, an assistant corpo-
ration counsel. Walsh will be shifted

Such frank statement is commendable 1t shows
that all the talk about the necessity of national COM
