Pension Checks to be Printed
Leave Of Absence Granted.
The following is from a Washington
special to the Tribune: The Commits
sioner of Pensions has decided to accept
the proposition of the Treasury Depart
ment to furnish checks to be used in the
payment of pensions. These checks
will be furnished at cost and are to be
printed on paper which cannot be coun-
tereited or altered, thereby insuring
greater security to the Government as
we'll as the pensioners. They are to be
engraved on steel and will be similar to
ordinary treasury checks.
About 225 clerks in the Government
employ will soon take ten days leave to
90 home to Ohio and vote. A great
number will have the same number Of
days to 60 home to vote in Penusyl-
vania.
Tammany Leaders 10 be Arrested.
Application for the arrest of promin-
ent members of Tammany Hall, on
criminal charges, of delrauding the city,
will be made this afternoon, by
Judge Barret. Affidavits, on which the
order of arrests are to be granted, are
already drawn up. Considerable ex.
citement prevails. 1t is not known who
are the persons to be arrested, nor the
court from which the warrants are to
issued. The probability is that the war
rants will be issued as the applications,
will be made before Judge Barrett, who,
is opposed to Tammany. A warra,sE
for the arrest of Register Connolly, for
seizing and burning private papers be-
longing to lawyer, on the ground that
they contained transcripts o; real es-
tate transactions with members Of the
ring has not yet been issued. 1t is ex.
pected that the affair will remain in
abeyance until next Monday.
Mayor Hall to be Arrested-Misdc-
meanOr In Office.
Judge Barrett this afternoon made
application before Justice Rixhy, Fifty
seventh street police court, for a war
rant of arrest for A. Oakley Hall, Mayor
of this city, for gross misdemeanors in
converting public funds or permitting
the same to be converted from their
legitimate use by signing warrants for
the payment Of millions OF dollars for
work that had not been supplied; said
warrants for money having been given
to James H. Ingersol, Andrew II.
Garvy, George S. Miller, A. j. Smith,
C. Bollor and others. The principal
affidavit charging crime under special
act of the Legislature, which deprives
the guilty one of his Office and forever
prevents him from again holding office
of any kind, is sworn to by W. S. Cope
land, formerly an assistant book keeper
in the Comptroller's Office, and charges
that the vouchers on which said war.
rants were issued and signed, were not
sworn to in accordance with law and
were signed by the Mayor, he knowing
them to be fraudulent. Justice Rlxby
did not feel authorized to grant war
rant as the Mayor was the chief magls-
.rate of the city. He said, however,
that he would send notice to the Mayor
to appear before him tomorrow
morning, at ten o'clock, and if he
should refuse or neglect to do so, be
would then issue warrant for his ar
rest. After q short period for deliber-
alton, Judge Barrett decided to accept
Judge Rixby's decision. The counsel
present intimated that they would to
morrow apply for warrants Of arrest
against VIM. Tweed and others, for the
misappropriation of the public funds;
and, therefore, their views were not IN
cluded in the above complaint.
In the Supreme Court to-day, Judge
Barnard entered an injunction order
against the city order, as settled, ex-
empting the Police and Health depart
ments from the effect OF the injunction,
and enjoins that the Board OF Super
visors raise no more money for the
erection of the new court house for the
Ninth judicial district, and the new
police court house, jefferson market.
Nothing in the injunction enjoins the
Comptroller from raising, with consent
Of the Board ot Improvements, stock,
not exceeding five million dollars, to
paw off the bonds on stock due this
wear. The order nay be further modl-
fed as the public interest may require
it, or as parties to the suit make notice
therefore.
