He Mounts Fortunc’s Wheel and Detects the Coquetry of the Goddess. Svectal Correspondence New York World. New Orvgans, March 12.—Atfter witnessing the grand montbly distribution yesterday of the Louisiana State Lottery Company from the first revolution of the, whecl until the last positive prize was decided, the managers invitea the Worid correspondent to inspect. the inner workings of the institution. In consideration of the large proportion of business transacted outside of the State, a fair snare of which is drawn from New York and the Eastern States, accepted the offer and began at once to care~ fully serutinize the system of conducting the lishment in its minutest detail. There was uot the slightest disposition shown on the part of the Presideut, Mr. M. A. Dauobin, or his em- ployes to withhold anything, as every book. and memorandum were placed at the cisposition of your correspondent. It was evident from the very start that some master-hand had tramed the methodical routine that pervaded the entire establishment, for amidst all the ramifications that muet necessarily occur from time to’ time not asingle loophole coulé be detected for which satisfactory aud equitable provisions had not Leen made. nN ‘The tickets are manufactured at Wilmington, Del., and areall printed with ingenious and delicate water-marks. It is now utterly impos- sible to counterfeit them, as in addition to every mark and tiot having to agree with the parent model, the Company has periected a private key number, which controls 2 certain combination of pumbers. Each key naomber—of which there are 5,000—is stamped upon ascleciion of twenty different numbers. With the aid of this key it is perfectly feasible to trace where every pack- age of twenty has been sent. A list of we num- bers issued, which is reeulated by theamount of orders expected, is kept. Itis divided 10 sepa- rate columns, giviny the class of package, whether whole or half tickets, sent to agents all over the country, to the New York office, as well as those sold by correspondence in the city proper, and the reserve on hand. Jf it should be required to trace any invoice or particular pumber, an elaborate directory is consulted con- taimng al) the key numbers, and the ticket can be placed with a few minutes’ clerical labor. It has been deemed expedient to have the tickets printed for two drawings © in- voive to be used at the sinzie drawin: May was taken ont ot the vau'ts and opeved in the preseace of the World correspondent. The tickets for next _month’s drawing, on April S; are being supplied to the public to-day and in- yoives forwarded to the varions agents all over tbe country. There is something verv ingenious in the ar- rangement of the correspondence department. As soon as the maiis are delivered the letters nie distributed, under the superintendence: of te President, to four derks. Those containing orders are separated from‘ letters of inquiry, and each transferred to speci] rooms. As soon as cach order is filled, the name of the corre- Spender his address, and the number of the ucket inclosed are engrossed on sheets of fools- cap arranged in tabular form and alphabetical order. These sheets are bound in book form as soonas the drawing iscompleted, so thata perfect record is kept of each purchaser and the ticket in Lis poscession. When the official list of the drawing is ready a copy is sent to every corre- spondent. With regard to local dealers, arents, or casual purchasers. the key number controll- ing packages of twenty is anamplecheck. Itwas by the assistance of these valuable records that, i was able to trace where each of the capitals was sold in vesterday’s drawing. . 1 first of all called off the number to Mr. Dauphin, who re- ferred to his key-book. He at once detected that the $30,000 cazital and two of the $1,000 prizes had been sold by correspondence. A clerk was dispatched to get the original let- ters, ‘The gentleman who is the for- tunate possessor of the half-ticket draw- ing thé $30,000 prize resides at Ports- mouth, Va. He wrote a short business note on March 4, inclosing $2, with a request. that two half-tickets for the March drawing should be sent him. The letter was answered March 7, and one of the half-tickets inclosed was No. 49,- 2. Another gentleman, residing in Lynavilh County Giles, Tenn., returned one of the Com- pany’s circular’s on March 5, ordering four half- tickets. and inclosed $4. His letter was promot- dy answered, and one of the four tickets forward- ed was No. 57.538, drawing a $1,000 prize. An- other gentleman wrote irom Newton, Kas., under date of March4: “Please send me two balf- tickets in your ‘next monthly drawing, for which Tinclose $2, Send me odd numbers if you can.” One of the tickets £0 ordered turned. out to be the numbers 22,538, which drew a prize of $1,000. Lhave obtained the names of these three gentlemen who have been made happy by aturn of fortune’s wheel, but the invariable rule of the Company is never to publish the identity of the nolder of a winning ticket with- out nis consent. With regard to the prizes sold in New York or through agents, it was compar- | atively easy to trace Uiem by reference to the key number and the column containing the ex- act numbers in every invoice sold in these re- spective departments. ‘The drawings are held ou the second floor of the main ouilding, and are under the soie super- vision of four commissioners. Mr. Adam Gif- feu, the senior commissioner, has been identi- fica with the Company for the past ten years. ‘He was formerly io the wholesale clothing busi- ness, xnd was at one time Alderman and Treas- urer of this city. Mr. Louis H. Pihe, bis assist- ant, is a uative of New Orleans, and belongs to an old French family. He is an architect and survevor by profession, Mr. James H. Phels is an old President and was formerly in the gro- ‘ business. He, together wita Mr. J. P.Rovx, ove of the headclerks in the agency of the Liver- pool, London & Globe Fire-Insurance Com- pany, represents the people. All of these gen- Uemen are well known in business circles and enjoy the highest reputation. The turning of the wheel and the drawing of the numbers are entirely under their control. No officer of the Company is present on the platform while the drawing is in progress. ‘There is not the slightest doubt that the drawing is conducted with absolute fairness. Even the worst enemies of the Louisiana State Lottery Company have never iut- ed at the’ slightest irregularity. During my stay in New Orleans { observed that the offices of the Company were the resort of the Very best people. Bankers, brokers, merchants, and the highest State officials dia not hesitate ‘w pay their respects to_ the managers, in whom they have the most implicit confideuce and witn whom they do not hesitate to have important outside commercial transactions. The general fecling is that the establishment of the lottery has been of incalculable ood to the State. Une of its institutions—the Charity Hospital— is supported by an annual. contribution of $40,000. Without thet donation it would have had to close its doors. With regard tothe details of the drawing it- is safe to say there is not the slightest indication of unfairness, All the prize pumbers (630 in all) were cuuvted carefully over by the tour Commissioners last week before they were Dlaced in the wheel yesterday morning in the presence o: the Hi correspondent. In fact ‘the result of the drawing proved that they were all deposited in the wheel, as all the positive prizes udvertised in the monthly scheme were drawn, and checked one by one by ydur cur- respondent. Jf auy discrepancy was suspected, it vould only exist in connection with the large wheel, which contains the 100,000 numbers. Gens. Beauregard and Early count. bese numbers over twice a year, and youth that every bumber from 1 to 160,000 is depusited in ‘We big wheel. It takes five days to complete ubis count, and the managers offered to go Lhrouzh the entire process immed:ately after the drawing, s0 that tbe public might be thor- oughly convinced that the 100,000 numbers were in the Jarge wheel. But this would require at Jeast ten days? labor with four assistants, and my proposition to weigh the tickets and the tubes, 60 as to arrive at some accurate estimate, Was willingly accepted by the managers. As soon as the drawing was completed yester- y, L accordingly obtaiued full contro! of the wheel. Mr. Giffen und Mr. Pitte, the two Com- iissioners, accompanted me to the room this morning. The whee! was then opened, and a woolen cloth spread upon an adjoining table. 1 ben louk several handfuls of the numbers se- curely incased in their gutta-percha tubes, and depusited them in the’ centre of this table. From this hesp I counted 100 at a time, which Were veritied by Mr. Giffen, until I nad obtained 1,000. ‘The remainder were returned to the wheel. Ithen placed these 1,000 numbers in a cartoa-box which I had previously weighed empty. The box and numbersturned the scales at isbg ounces. Deducting 53¢ ounces for the Weight of the box, and ‘the uet weight of the 2.00 numbers and’ tubes was 43 ounces. As numbers had already been drawa from the wheel yesterday, 1 counted out 170 numbers Srom tie 1,000 heap and found the net weicht of the remainder ($30) to be 353 ounces. Five large white canvas bags were then procured at qmy request, as Well as a pair of Forsyth’s scales, Which is the recognized standard in this city. Each bag weighed empty 7g ounces. 2 calculated to be able to place 20,000 bers. according to the weicht of the first’ 1,000. drawn out of the wheel, should he 20 times 43, or 899 ounces, which, wit the bag (734 ounces), gave a uross weight of S67}g ounces, or 54 pounds 31g ounces. I placed the regulators on the scale at that figure, and had the dirst. bay filled until it turned the scale at 54 pounds 3g ounces, L.then kuew it contained 20,000. num- bers. The same process was. followed until [ had filled four bags, containing $0,000 numbers. The last 20,000° would necessarily be 330 short, or 35}4 ounces, as by the previous weiclit I had taken, Deducting 2334 ounces. or 3 pounds 33g. ounces, from 54 pounds 33g ounces, I should have the net weight of 19,170 numbers which remained in ine wheel, or 52 pounds. I placed the regu- lators at that figure, 52 pounds, and wated with curiosity tor the Jast bag to be filed. When Mr. Pilic dropped the last tube. in there was a slight motion of the regulatiny- beam, and the scales were poised exactly at fifty-two pounds. There was not the slightest Variation of @ fraction of.an ounce, so that must say 1 was more convineéd that there were 99,170 numbers in the large wheel when 1 began to make the invgstigation than if I lad counted them one by one. With the $30 positive prizes drawn yesterday this would make a total of 10v,000 numbers in the wheel when it was turned at 10 o’elovk for the grand mouthly dis- tribution last Tuesday moruing. $a ’ MARRIAGE LICENSES. The Number Issued Lamentably Smatl—Re- sults of Lent. There was a considerable falling off in the marriage licenses ‘last week, as compared with the previous week, sixty-two being tbe total for the six days ending ) Saturday. Seventy- three was the number the week ending March 2. One of the clerks facetiously attributed the decrease to the election. A rush is expected after Lent.
