A Suspicious story.
It was found at the Controllers Office
this morning that an entrance had been
effected by burglars into the rooms and
some of the vouchers for bills paid in
1870 had been abstracted.
LATKR.-The burglars broke one of
the large panes of plate glass in the door
and by inserting hand forced back the
catch of q patent lock. Search was
made, when it was found that the bur-
glar or burglars had gone directly to the
locked cabinet on the west side of the
room and had stolen valuable papers.
Suspicious at the Ccmptroller's Office is
very strong against certain parties
whom particular papers taken in
dicste. The authorities say the rob-
berry was committed by some one fa-
miliar with the office and the disposition
of certain papers. The locks of the cabi-
net in which the papers were contained
were ali forced. Three or four days
will elapse before list of stolen papers
can be prepared. The task will be set
about at once, and it is simply clerical
one.
The Intunctfon against Tamnany.
In the Circuit Court to-day the affidavit
OF the Board of Supervisors was read and
filed, the substance of which was that
they had no particular objection to en- in
junction limiting Them to their duties tln-
der the law, as they never have trans
gressed or proposed to transgress the law.
Richard O'Gorman filed a demurrer
against the injunction on the ground that
| the plaintiffs therefor have no legal ca
pacity to sue and do not set forth specifl-
cations of grievances.
Affidavits were also filed by Mayor
Hall, Comptroller Connolly, and Assistant
Comptroller Stars, setting forth the
| groundlessness of the preferred charges.
After debate by couRsel Judge Barnard
directed O'Gormsn, counsel for defend
ants, to produce Thursday complete
statement of the liabilities of the city and
and county up to the issuing of the in
junction.
Court then adjourned.
Tricks OF the Syndicate.
| The Commercial Advertiser says the
price of 20s has not advanced with the
price of gold, and they are now selling al
about Holt per cent below par in gold.
Under these circumstances there is some
talk of squeeze in gold having been
deliberately planned in the interest of the
| syndicates, to enable them to buy 5-20s
| st liberal discount below the payment
which the Treasury Department secures
| for them.
The Radical state Convention.
The Republican Central Committee OF
the city and county of New York met
this morning, John 81. Townsend presid-
ing, and appointed Monday evening next

| publican State Convention. Action in
regard to the election of delegates to the
County, Senatorial, Assembly and Alder.
manic Conventions was postponed until
after the meeting of the State Conven-
ton, when 1t Is hoped the two wings Of
the Republican party may agree upon the
same nominees.
