Secret Serve fee Agents Harry T. Donaghy, Otto F. Klinke and Lawrence Richey raided a'l | four of these esiablishments last night and obtained thousands of tickets, lottery paraphernalia, checks and returns from agents, and the plates from which the tickets were printed. D. H. Jones, alias D. H. Kissam, who has lived in very expensive style, was ar- rested as the head of.the concern. John E. Minor was arrested as a partner in the coneern. - Minor claimed to be in the real estate businest. Warrants were issued for Green, the confidential secretary of Jones, ithe local headouarters, At midnight jJones, Minor and Miss Green were ar- \raigned before United States Commis- sloner Mark Foote. More Arrests Expected. George E. Geisler, the St. Louis agent of the coneérn, was arrested in that city, and a large numer of lottery tickets and records confiscated. Frenk Falkes, agent at Fort Wayne, wrs arrested by Agent Donaghy. Chariés and Reyal Hammer were arrested at Indianapoits by Agent |Klinke, and. Joht ‘t. Markland was ar- [rested at McKeesport, Pa. All were held junder heavy bonds. , The secret service men, from the rec- ords that they have obtained, expect to ;Make more than 200 arrests in various cities of the country. An aitempt will also be made to invgive the express companies al! over the coun- try as agents or accomplices under the federalact of 1895, forbidding the operation of lotteries, as itis believed they handled the business of the company with the knowledge that it was a lottery scheme in violation of the law. Commissioner Foote early today held Jones without bail. Jones is more than seventy years old and very feebie. i He is a sufferer from heart trouble and was allowed to go tc his apartment under jsurveillance, as his confinement in jail might prove fatal. Minor was held $2,000 bail and Miss Green in $500 bail. Under its various names the lottery has been conducted on the regular lottery scheme. The prizes have been all out of proportion to the receipts and the com- missions have been very heavy. ANOTHER LOTTERY RUN DOWN. |Head of the Califorria Guarantee | and Loan Company. Chief Wilkie of the secret service divi- sion has been advised of the arrest in Chicago of D. C. Jones of the C Guarantee and Loan Company. This con- cern was a lottery pure and simple and has been under investigation since the Honduras lottery was driven out of busi- ness in the early part of the year. Jones is charged. with others, with violating the section of the interstate commerce act which prohibits the interstate tation of lottery tickets dnd adverti ments. The business of th!s concern was confined to the central states chiefly, a though a fairly large quantity of its tic ets were handled in New England. The attitude of the proprietor of the enter- | prise was defiant until Agents Donaghy and Klinke succeeded in collecting a mass of evidence from express agents and ticket ters which convinced Mr. Jones that further attempts-to cond: his illegiti- mate enterprise were usel _———— MANY DELEGATES PRESENT.
