The Estate of the Late Thaddeus
Stevens,
Cor. Gin. Commercial. ~

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.
Itwas stated recently In some Of the
newspapers that tho executors OF the will
Of Tnaddeus Stevens have, from improper
motives, delayed filling an inventory oI
his personal estate, hs required by law,
and intimatCtl that the object Of the eX.
ecutOrs has been 10 conceal the fict that
Mr.. Stevens owned over twenty.sevGn
hundrcdths Of the entire stock Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad. This stock
Il Is alleged, was sold by the executors
10 the late Hiram WAldbrldge. The
Hon. o. J. Dlckey, Mr.. Stevens success.
sor, and Hon. Edward Mcpherson, Clerk
Of the House, who arc the executors, say
that there Is no truth In tho statement
that Mr.. Stevens owned Northern Pacific
stock, and the delay In rendering the In,
ventory has been chiefly Occasioned by q
large claim made upon the estate by the
cOlOred woman who was Mr.. Stevens
housekeeper, who demanded pay FOL
twenty-five years service In that capacity
THIS claim the executors have fully com
promised. Another difficulty was q
suit for thirty thousand dollars
which amount, Il was claimed
Mr. Stevens subscribed several years be
fore his death 10 build q local railroad. I
this claim had been allowed Il would havt
swallowed up nearly oil the personal pro
pcrty belonging 10 the estate. Mr.. Ste
venSi real estate has been found by thC
executors 10 amount 10 one hundred thou
sand dollars, and his personal property 4
forty thousand The effort made on thI
27th 10 procure an order from the COur
In Lancaster TO compel the executors Il
tilc an inventory, originated In motives o
personal enmlty 10 Mr. Dlckey, The eX
ecuton expect 10 complete the inventory
In . short time.

UNITED STATES BoNDS-On this sub.
ject the Chronicle remarks: The bond
market showed very little sympathy with
the course ofmOney, having in this re.
spect been exceptional 10 all other Wall
street interests. Prices have been quite
firm and on most issues have advanced.
The chiei cause appears TO have been
in steady demand from source about
which there Is some little uncertainty on
the street. Usually, there Is n demand
during the latter half Of December from
dealers, In anticipation Of purchases made
10 January for the relnvestment Of divl.
dends and interest. This year, however,
the dealers appear TO be buying less than
usual on this account; and as there Is
some quiet buying by street spectators,
who have frequently shown advance nc.
QuaintnnCc with the operations Ol the
government, On opinion has gained ground
that considerable amounts aro going into
the hands Of operators, who anticipate
that large purchases Of Five.twenties will
DO made bv the Secretary Of the Treasury
next month. From the circumstance,
however, that many orders arc for the
purchase Of small amounts, VIC incline to
10 the opinion that the demand Is also
from outside parties, who feel con.
hdent that they cannot lOse money in
taking hyc.tweniies at current rates.
