RUMoRED INVESTIGATION INTO PACIFIC
MAIL STEAMSHIP LEGISLATION.

WASHINGTON. Feb lit begins to be whispered
that another investigation is in order, and that
probably nothing would prevent it unless 1t be the
near approach Of the end of the session and OF Con
gress The story is told and believed. that thor
ongh investigation into the circumstances connected
with the passage of the Pacific Mail Steamship lens-
lation last Winter would show an expenditure here
and in Albany NEARLY all here OF not less than
S1,GOO,OOO.
No doubt is entertained that the bulk Of this went
directly into the pockets of Congressman and OF
their confederate lobby agents; and Thorough m
vestgation for the purpose of finding out, would
probabv disclose a state of affairs by the side of
which the Credit Mobilier transactions would seem
almost Insignificant.

FINANCE COMMITTEE-THE HEW-YoRK STOCK
EXCHANGE REPORTED TO HAVE PAID BRIBE
MONEY.
10y TELEGRAPH TO THB TRIBUSEl
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The Ways and Means
Committee have discovered miniature Credit Mo
biler affair, which gives promise Of some prorni-
nence. if the facts foreshadowed to-day can be
established.
1t has been charged for some time that n consider
able amount of money furnished by the New-YOrk
Stock Exchange had been expended in Washington
during last Winter, in connection with the amend
ment to the Tax and Tariff bill Of 1872 introduced in
the Senate Finance Committee for the repeal Of the
tax on borrowed capital
Mr. Colgate. a broker of New-York, was here At
the time the action of the Finance and Ways and
Means Committees was taken, and il was understood
that he had been sent here TO procure the required
legislation by the Stock Exchange. At any rate he
took great interest in the of the proposition
and it became part of the tariff and tax law OF
that year.
Whisperings were heard at the time that there
had been some improper influence eXerted, but u
was not believed, as the measure regarded az a
just one Recently, however, other rumors have
become current in connection with the Ways and
Means Committee, and that Committee requested
Mr.. Colgate 10 come before them and make a state
ment.
The gentleman appeared to-day and denied having
used any money here whatever. In reply TO
question by Mr.. Kerr. he said that claim against
the Stock Exchange had been made by Charles T.
Sherman, who is United States Judge for the
Northern Judicial District of Ohio, and brother of
Senator John Sherman, Chairman Of the Senate
Finance Committee, who demanded $1,000 for
services in obtaining the adoption of the amend
ment.
Whether the sum was paid is not known, but 1t IL
probable the Committee will find out and also dis-
cover whether the statements regarding the Clerk
to the Ways and Means Committee are true. Mr..
Colgate said he could furnish letters from Judge
Sherman. and the Committee has directed him to
do so.

IBY TELEGRAPH TO THB TRIBUNE
| WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The statement OF VICE
President Cofax was the general subject of eonyer
sation to-day, in the intervals Of counting the
Electoral vote and the discussion upon it has been
as varied as the previous opinions of those who re-
marked upon it. In a majority of cases it seemed TO
be Thought that his explanation was, TO say the
least lame. IL was often remarked that among
other facts il ought 10 be remembered that his bank
account shows deposit of 1880 on the lst OF July
1865. nine days after the deposit of Sl2O0 currency,
which he has tried so hard to show did not come
from Oakes AInes. IT, it is said Mr.. Cofax received
the 81 600 bill in the letter from the late Geo. +.
Nestitt as ne says, that fact would not necessarily
show that the 1900 deposited on June q was not
the Credit Mobiier dividend. The $1,000 may have
made part of the 81 500 deposit.
Neither Mr.. Colf9x the two members OF ms
family whom he brought TO coTobOratc hls state
ment could fix the date of the receipt of Mr. Nesbits
letter any more accurately than to say that 1t was
about the middle of June 1t is also remarked as
singular that, in all the three weeks that have
elapsed since the exhibition of the S. c. check aud
of Mr. Colfax's bank account. not a word has been
said by Mr. Colfax or any of his friends about the
receipt of the 81 600 bill He now reeolects the
smallest circumstance connected with its receipt
lust how il was folded in the letter and just what
was said at the breakfast table when he showed It,
Why il is asked did he not TccOllect all this before
when he found nothing TO say in his defense when
confronted by the terrible chain of evidence, but TO
denv the receipt OF the S19OO diyidendi The
determination Of Mr.. COlfaX's counsel to get
all of Mr. Ames's evidence before his client made
his explanation, looked somewhat suspicious. Mr.
Hale questioned Mr.. Ames with great persistency to
ascertain if he had any other memoranda of his busi-
ness with Mr. Colfax and particularly if he had any
receipts for dividends. This looked if he did not
venture to expose the line Of defense agreed upon
until he was certain that Mr.. Ames could not come
in afterward with receipt and destroy Mr.. Cofax
as he did Mr.. Patterson. If Mr. Colfax did not get
the 81 300 dividend of course he signed no receipt
for it. WHY then it is asked again. IL necessary
TO take such pains to find out whether Mr. Ames had
any receipt The only reasonable explanation Is
that Mr. Cofax did not intend to make the explana-
ton he finally brought forth if a receipt pro
duced, but to meet the facts in some other way.
