Lottery Ticket Dealers. United States Circuit Court, Southern District of New York, Before Judge Benedict and jury. U.S. v. John Lindauer. This was an indictment charging the defendant with doing business as a lottery dealer at No. 202 Chrystie-street, without paying the special tax required by law. From the evidence it did not appear clear whether he was pecuniary interest in the profits and losses of the business. Lewis Lindauer, the brother of the defendant, testified that he (Lewis) paid the rent of the lottery office, and that the defendant merely received wages for his services. On the other hand it was shown that the defendant had made statements to the effect that he had interests in the business. Judge Benedict charged that if the defendant was found to be simply a clerk, he must be acquitted; and further charged that a person might sell lottery tickets on commission, if the commission was allowed as wages, and still be merely a clerk, and not be amenable in the eye of the law as being engaged or concerned in the business of lottery dealing. This construction of the law is very important in view of the great number of arrests of lottery ticket vendors that have recently taken place, nearly all of whom claim to be clerks, and it being extremely difficult to prove who are the principals. The jury, after a brief absence, found the defendant not guilty (English)

My great-grandmother Sophia married an Oscar Lindauer. They came from Alsace-Lorraine on their honeymoon, by boat. Alsace-Lorraine was then owned by the French. Great-grandmother brought a lovely picture of Napoleon over from the other side - none of which I have ever seen duplicated. It is still in the family and in excellent condition. The Lindauer family owned a huge department store over there. When the newlyweds came to this country about the early 1800's they settled in Philadelphia. The living room furniture is still in the family. I have in my possession one of the sitting chairs. It is a very pretty, light wood in color, Victorian style. It is now of heavy material and cover. Sophia and Oscar had three boys and later on one girl. The boys were Charles, Louis and John and the girl, Eloise, was named by her brother, Charles. He found it by reading a book (Heloise & Abelard). The boys were much older than Eloise (English)

Another Gold Watch and Chain and Diamond Pin Stolen. John Lindauer, 23 years of age, the keeper of a saloon in Grand street, was arraigned charged with having stolen a gold watch and chain, valued at $100, and a diamond pin, valued at $250, from Georgiana Mackey, of 119 Mercer street. Miss Mackey alleges that last night she went into Lindauer's saloon where she partook of refreshments. She then was induced to accompany the accused to the saloon kept by one Wolf, 101 Grand street, where she alleged Lindauer robbed her of the gold watch and chain, and diamond pin, which he refused to return. Georgiana called for the police, when officer Grady, of the 8th precinct, arrested Lindauer. He denied all knowledge of the stolen property, but on searching him the watch and chain were found in his possession. He then stated that Georgiana had ordered four bottles of champagne in his house and had given him the watch and chains as security, but be denied all knowledge of the diamond pin. Justice Dodge committed him for trial. (English)
