NATIONAL FINANCES.
From the New York Journal of CONNER

From the New York Journal of Commerce.
Secretary Boutwell,, as gentleman recently
from Washington informs us, Is the most dis
gusted official in the government service. he
Isn't pleased with some of his most conspicu-
GUS subordinates, but he cannot help himself.
He can neither reform them, whtewash them,
nor remove them. He complains OF them In q
querulous tone to the President, but the chief
Is apathelic; he receives the appeal coldly, and
smokes on compacently, and the Objectionable
incumbenis OF good places are left to stick.
Then his foreign negotiation Of bonds has mud
died his figures He announced that he had
placed the remainder OF the two hundred mil
lion loan, and the delivery of the bonds COM
menced. When the first of the month came,
how should he make up his debt statement? II
he added the bonds handed over TO the Syndl-
cate to his issues, then the volume of the debt
was increased, aud this the law forbade. If he
made the proper allowance for interest, then
the bonds were sold at frem Two and hall per
cent. to three per cent. below par, and this was
forbidden. So he says that he has sold the
bonds, and the Syndicate say that they have
bought them, aud the deliveries from their
hands prove that there has been an issue on
some terms; but the official debt statement re-
cognlzes none of these transactions, either IN
the increase of the bonded debt or the receipt
of the cash equivalent. Then, again, 1t Is said
that this bad management here and the equally
bad manipulation of affairs In London by the
two treasury .ents, who really have branch
treasury department there, have so em6ar-
rassed the Syndicate that, even with all their
pluck, energy and smartness, they haven't
made the thing go as they expected, and may
have vet to throw part OF the bonds back on
his hands. We think Mr.. Boutwell's disgust Is
not unreasonable; we share It ourselves and
most OF our readers are suffering from the
same experience.

THE NEW YORK RING FRAUDS.
Report OF the Committee OF seventy
Address TO the Workingmen-Keyse
Revelations-Fauure TO Indict Con-
molly.
NEw YoRK. October 9


The Joint investigating committee OF alder
men, supervisors and citizens met In the room
of the supervisors, In the county courthouse,
to-day at 8 o'clock, and the citizens submitted
reports which they have been preparing for
two months past The Tribune says the re-
ports are voluminous, and will be found on
examination comprehensive and conclusive.
They establish beyond any reasonable doubt
several most damning facts. They show that
the city debt is practically $4,000, 600; that
not merely extravaganza but fraud and pecu-
lation OF the grossest character have beeR prac-
ticed Ia several departments, with the knowl-
edge of their heads; that the debt has been
doubled every two years since 1863; that the
mayor is responsible tor the continuation OF
the wholesale robbery of the city; that 1t costs
nearly az much $3.50, 900, 900 year, to run the
OF the whole nation; that while 1921, 1865 62
were paid for armory repairs. &C., the actual
expenditure was not more than s2O2, 1853, In
other words, the ring stole OH armOry &C
counts alone SO, ,029 402 81; that immense sums
have been paid for services unperformed to
men unknown In the offices from which they
drew their salaries; that the Schuyler frauds,
by which the bills OF one contractor were
raised from $4s, 900 to s463,000, were commit
ted through the connivance of William NJ.
Tweed.
During two years and q half John n. Keyser
received s2,3Sl, ,6s2 OF from the New York city
and county treasury. At Friday nights meet
ing of the committee of seventy, it was an.
nounced that Mr.. Keyser had assigned to MIR.
Jackson 8. Schultz, OF the citizens committee,
property to the value OF $500, 900, for the pur-
pose of repaying from Its proceeds all sums
paid to him in excess Of his just claims for
corporation work. Keyser writes letter TO
the press, defining his position. He says he mas
no Intention of abscondlng, and has never re.
ceived any $4,000, 900 from the city. but tnat
he has earned every dollar that has been
paid. There are among the warrants purport-
ing to have been issued to him $500, 900 which
he never received, and If in his name are
forrerles. As charges have been made, ne
has, to vlndicate his own character, assigned
his property to cover any claims against MIN,
confident that 1t will turn out tnat the city, 10
fact, Is indebted TO him. Tweed Is not MS
partner, but his principal employees snare q
percentage of profits, which Is the secret Oh
the firm title of Keyser & Co.
The committee of seventy have prepared an
address to the workingmen, setting lortn
clearly and conclsely the method by which the
ring robbed the city treasury and deceived Inc
workingmen into supporting them. The com.
mittee have overwhelming proofs against
men now living, and at the proper time tney
will be forthcoming. and men whom the com,
munity would hardly suspect Will oe louno
having hand in the city treasury ana olVl-
ding the spoils .uo c,,,,,

They all might be one, that the world might
believe, as when the pagan said, "How these
Christians love one another" In their private
conversation and In their public controversies
they should abstain from all seasonings of
speech common to secular assemblies. Be
courteous to each other, and if there cometh
one who believeth not, he will say that God Is
with you In truth. Three years ago it was felt
In the mother country. that, notwithstanding
the great gulf between the North and South,
their hearts we're not divided. The earthquake
spent Its power, the chasm closed, and all
pressed forward again to join hand with hand
and heart with heart May they all look for
ward and lo3e for better things, and that
wars may cease. Let England and America
say to each other, "Let there be no strife be-
tween us"
Collection for Chicago.
Bishop McIvane stated that action had been
taken by the two houses OF the convention in
relation to the disposition Of the collection

larles Oh the two houses read the resolution
passed, that the amount of the collection
should be sent to the mayor of Chicago, to be
applleo unoer ms direction to those rendered
homeless and houseless by the great calamity
which has fallen upon their city
After speaking OF the extent of the destruc-
ton, the bishop said such Calamity had
never been known In any land, that is, such a
calamity by confagration. Let this first col
lection for their relief be an example for all
other collections.
The Right Rev. Bishop Whittingham urged
each and every one TO assist in making the
collection OF the gifts of the congregation.

Mr.. VIM. Welsh, of Pennsylvania, offered the

Rev. Montgomery Schuyler, D. D., of Mis-
souri,, offered the following:
RESOLVED, That 1t be referred to the commit
tee on canons to inquire and report whether it
Is not right and expedient 80 to alter canon l3,
title II, so as not only to forbid the minister
from solemnizing matrimony Id any case
where there Is q divorced wife or husband of
either party still living, but also to include in
the prohibition the lay members OF the church.
