TnAD. SrEyENs.-This old. file leader Of
the Rad. House of Representatives, said in
Congress, on Friday last, that he would
vote for Seymour and Blair before he
would consent to pay the Bonds of the
government in gold, where there was no
actual law requiring it. This has set the
Chicago Tribune crazy. In its Saturday
leader, the Tribune turns old Thad. out of
the party! Turning out on their part and
taking on ours is the order of the day.

for untaxed shoddyites before November.

Report Of the Committee OH the I'm
parchment Trial.
W ASHINGTON. NJ

W ASHINGTON, May -
The committee of the impeachment mana
gers report that Mr.. Woolley after sending
them a certificate that he was too sick to
appear, was well enough to take the night
train TO New York, whence he telegraphed
another certificate of sickness. They argue
against Mr.. Woolleys claim that he could
be the judge of the relevancy of matters in
volved In the questions put to him, and could
refuse to answer them. The report then
gives further details of the evidence taken.
quoting dispatch from W. W. Warden, the
Presidents stenographer to Woolley, telling
him that those who were most confident Of
conviction, were not those most convcrsant
with the inner workings. He gives extracts
from various dispatches to and from Woolley
and Hugh Hastings, who styled the Al
bany party, and who was to come on for
business. Mr.. 5. 5. Cox also appears by the
report to have been mixed in the matter.
Either he or Shook was wanted in connection
with impeachment, and were telegraphed for
from New York.
Mr. Cox testified that various schemes for
the purchase of senators votes with money
were brooched to him, but that he refused to
have ANYTHING TO do with them. He advised
Collector Smythe not TO have anything to do
with the scheme Of General Adams, who for
certain amount of money proposed to I'M
dertake TO procure the votes for acqnittal of
four senators. The names of these five were
not given in the report, Mr.. Butler explain
ing that as this was only an interlocutlonary
report, the names for that reason were left
blank. Mr.. Cox's testimony embodied in
the report is long, and shows beyond doubt
that there was an attempt made to purchase
votes in which he was wanted to assist, and
in which Webster, Hastings and Shook were
in some way engaged.
Thurlow Weeds testimony is to the effect
that he was approached on the subject, but
that he did not think it feasible, but he said
that funds could be easily obtained if it were
so.
1t also appears that Sam Ward, in the
same interest, found out when Mr.. McCul-
loch was going to sell gold and when he was
not, and that he and his party bought accor-
dinghy.
The committee find evidence that the pur-
poses of the plotters were accomplished by
Geographic dispatch from one of the number
that his business was done. They trace the
suspicious routes which some of the money
took, and dwelt upon the suppers at Weick-
er's restaurant, in which the plotters and
some of the President's counsel participated
From all the evidence taken together. it
seems that Woolley was the principal work
er of the scheme. They say they only report
so much as shows the Importance of getting
at what he knows, but that they have other
evidence of great Importance going to show
attempts to obstruct the courts of public JUS
tce. The report concludes with a resou-
ton which orders that Woolley be arrested
by the Sergeant at Arms, and be brought be-
fore the bar of the House and detained until
he answer.

The CONVERSION OF UNITED STATES BONDS.
The communications received in financial
circles, in reference to the conversion of
United States bonds on the first of June, say
On the first of June change in the mode
of converting 80 notes will be made at the
Treasury Department, which will be less
favorable to holders of those notes by about
one per cent than the plan now in practice.
After that date the difference of interest
will be adjusted to July LIST, the 30 bond
commencing interest at that time
We would therefore recommend to those
who desire the $50 bonds of 1867, that they
make the exchange before the first proximo.
There are now outstanding over $780,
GOO 600 on the June and July 7.30 notes,
which mature within the next sixty-two
DAYS. and if all are presented in time, would
REQUIRE conversions at the rate of $4,000 900
a day, allowing for Sundays This will re-
ouire bonds faster than the Department can
furnish them, SO to avoid delay, notes should
be forwarded Immediately.
It is possible the privilege of converting
will be extended, as was the case with the
August notes, which matured last fall, but

SCHUYLER COlfaX.

We find in Prtnam's Magazine for June
the following sketch of the next Wee Presi-
dent of the United States
" Schuyler Colfax was born at a house in
North Moore street. near West Broadway. in
the city of New York, March %, 1928 His
mother is but sixteen years his senior He
received good common school education ;
was bred printer, and settled in Indiana in
1886. He soon became foreman and assist
ant editor of the village paper of South Bend
1t was then very small sheet, such every
Western settlement issues, as sort of flyer
to a job printing business, as soon as it has
got its school house, grocery, hotel and
blacksmith-shop, and begins to think about
having a meeting house.
The = typo out West frequently gets the
start of the preacher, though the race is
close. Those who saw Colfax then at the
case describe him light, spindling, flax
en-haired, boyish-looking youth-clever
rather in the Yankee than the English sense,
with a delicacy of temperament which sug-
gested a doubt whether he had the stamina
to live to manhood, without the faintest sug-
gestion that in his mature years he would be
Speaker of the House, and the second choice
of the country for President The news then
came to South Bend by stage from Detroit or
up the st. 10 river from the Lake There
became the editor and publisher OF the South
Bend Register as soon as he became of age.
other and subsequent evidences were reouir-
ed to establish his claim to intellectual
superiority.
In 1913 he was delegate to and Secretary
of the Wing National Convention. In 1850
he was member of the Indiana Constitu
tional Convention. In 1852 he was again
Secretary of the Wing National Convention.
He was elected to the Thirty fourth Congress
aud has been regularly reelected to every
subsequent Congress. He was elected Speak
er of the Thirty eight Congress, and has
been reelected Speaker of the Thirty-ninth
and Fortieth. He was urged but he declin-
ed to accept seat in the United States Sen
ate, preferring his presiding chair in the
House. His open, pleasant face has become
familiar to large audiences throughout the
who have listened to his addresses
upon political topics, upon the late Presi-

An END OF IHPEAcHMENT.-The later dis
patches from Washington state that on Tues
day the Senate met at the appointed hour,
and Senator Williams moved that the Senate
proceed to vote on the second article, which
was agreed, resulting as follows Guilty

Fowler. Grimes, Henderson, Ross, Trumbull
and Van Wrinkle of the Republicans voted
not guilty. The others voted as before.
