PAYMENT OF INTEREsT-During The war of
1912 the United States became indebted to Ma
ryland about half q million of dellars. The
principal of that debt was paid off in various
sums, at different times between 1878 and 1922,
bat no interest was paid In 1925 Congress
passed an act authorizing interest to be compu-
ted and paid at the Treasury. This was done,
but, in making the calculation, all the payments
were applied TO the principal, reducing the sum
upon which interest was allowed by the full
amount Of each payment, and allowing no in
terest at all after the debt had thus been extin-
gushed. Maryland never was satisfied with
this. She continued to memorialize Congress
for more liberal adjustment of her claim, but
never succeeded until the last day of the last
session, when the act under consideration was
passed. The Attorney General rendered an
able decision upon the subject. The amount
involved was about three hundl ed thousand dol
lars and we learn that the money was on Sat
urday paid Washington Union.
EXPLORATION OF THE RIO CoIoRADo.-The
Washington correspondent of the Nelo York
Times, under date of April 4, says:
The main portion of the party which goes out
under command of Lieut.. Ives, for the explora-
ton of the Rio Colorado, will start in the Star
Of the West to morrow, en- route for California.
1t is the intention of Lieut.. Ives to proceed inn
mediately to the Gulf of California, from San
Francisco, in sailing vessel, taking with him
the materials of small steamer. On reaching
the mouth of the Colorado, this steamer will be
put together. when the party will forthwith
commence the assent of the river
The expedition of Lieut.. Ives, it is allowed,
will eventually prove to have been one of the
most important enterprises Of the kind of any
now in progress; whether considered simply
with reference to its anticipated scientific re-
suits, or more generally to the future destiny of
the vast region which it is contemplated thus
TO throw open to the march of civilization.
REMARKABLE Run OF BAD LUcK.-The Nao
York Times says: A downtown merchant re-
eeived remittance from one Of his correspon-
dents. in the shape of q draft on the Ohio Life
and Trust Company for three thousand dollars
on the very day on which that institution closed
its doors. He Immediately telegraphed the fact
to his debtor, who sent him another draft on
John Thompson, which arrived the day after
the failure of that broker; the merchant again
teegraphed the failure, and received in few
days another draft on Atwood Il Co., just as
that firm suspended.
