ISpccial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.


Secretary Chase is expected back to-nor-
row night; his visit to New York has had
little to do with immediate financial matters.
In spite Of Wall street rumors, it Is certain
that no loan is TO be put on the market till
the period for the conversion Of legal tenders
into fye-twenties has expired, that is till the
1st Of July. Meantime, subscriptions to the
tlrc.twcnties continue at the flood tide. Jay
Cooke g. Co. now propose to bind themselves
to furnish two millions day to the Treasury
for the ensuing thirty days at least, if not for
the next sixty, if the Government will only
furnish the printed five twenty bonds US fast
Us they are called for.
Warrants passed the Treasury to-day for
the payment Of the entire balance due the
army Up to March 1st This balance consists
Of four and quarter millions, distributed as
follows: To troops in Kentucky, three mil
lions to troops in Minnesota, one-quarter Of
million; to West Virginia, one million. In
another week two more months pay will be
due the Whole army. No arrangement Is yet
made for the payment Of tho two ycars and
ninc months troops, whose term Of seryicc
expires within the coming month.
The Contraband Commission hare gone to
Baltimore to investigate the condition of ne
grocs in the two slave pens there Thence
they proceed to New York, from 7hcacc they
will transmit their preliminary report, bcfor,
sailing to New York for New Orleans, to iu-
spect the real merits Of Banks plantation
system.
The statement that the Chief Clerk of the
Pension Bureau has been dismissed for dis
loyalty, or for furnishing information to the
enemy, is 0 Glsehood, pure and simple.
Neither the Chief Clerk, or any other clerk in
the Pension Bureau, has been dismissed, or
arrested, or supposed to be guilty Of disloy-
atty, and the long leaders in the New York
anu fh1aaelphla papers On the subject
are, therefore, utterly without foundation.
The Petcrhot case stil afgitates the admin
istration. Seward is anxious to keep 1t out
Of the Cabinet, but it will soon come there
again. The minority arr opnosed tn tbc snr.
