Lottery legislation and rail accident featured in state and national notes
A North Dakota bill to legalize lotteries faces opposition as telegraphic warnings from the Louisiana Lottery case draw White House attention. Postmaster General Wantmaker decries government use for lottery schemes, while Attorney General Miller calls for action against lotteries. A New York paper foresees building and loan collapses, with Minnesota ties and Hudson Valley investments cited. A Kansas judge rules corn can be fuel for taxation purposes, and a Chesapeake and Ohio freight collision at Big Run tunnel, West Virginia, caused drownings of a telegraph operator, the engineer, and the fireman.
