New YoRK, December 2l.-The Her
AIDS Washington dispatch says there
was great hustle apparent at the State
Department yesterday, Notwithstanding
it was the Sabbath day. The cause o.
the unusual stir is supposed to have been
the preparation Of dispatches for Minis

bers of Congress, that the firm of Laird
q Co., builders OF the Alabama, are
trying to claim the proceeds of the sale
Of the blockade runner, Wren, which
they are supposed to have built, and
which was captured during the war and
sold.
A clerk 10 the registers Office of the
Treasury Department is missing. His
accounts show a deficit of several thou
sand dollars.
Van Wyck's report of the Committee
on Retrenchment, on the subject Of
revenue frauds, is printed. 1t says, I'm
continuing the investigation, commenced
more than year ago, this committee
find that there are many frauds yet ex.
listing in the Revenue Department in
kind as heretofore, but not to the same
extent, by reason Of a reduction of the
tax On whisky, and making estimated
capacity one of the tests Of the produo.
ton. When the capacity system shall
be improved and modified. as ex.
perience has already demonstrated
to be necessary, frauds will be lessened
and the revenue increased The greatest
want is undoubtedly honest officials, but
no improvement can be hoped for in that
direction under the present Executive
fact Congress should have realized and
acted upon long ago, and then devised a
system which human ingenuity could moi
easily circumvent.
