LONDON. March At is reported that the
frauds on the Bank of England amount to two
million dollars, and that Of this amount $3.50, 900
was drawn upon Jay Cooke, McCa1loeh d Co.;
5000, ,000 upon the Rothschilds, and large
amount, the exact figures unknown, upon tho
Barings. Some of these houses are said to be
making strenuous efforts to suppress the details
Of the transactions. It is stated, on what ap-
pears to be good authority, that one Of the 1net-
Deas Of the house OF Rothschild went to NeWgate
to-day, and had m interview with Noye5, the
alleged accomplice Of the sWind1ers, and that
startling revelations concerning their operations
were made, the nature Of which is kept secret
for the present
LArER-The circumstances of the fraud On the
Bank Of England remain mystery. Noyea, the
clerk or confederate Of the forgere. now Under
arrest, is native OF the United States.
He protests his innocence, but doubt
less knows more than he is willing to
tell at present. Aetonishment is expressed
that the extent of the transactions did not arouse
the euspictions Of the bank officials, but it seems
that the operators represented that they were
interested in the introduction OF American pal
ace cars on British railways, and we're arranging
for their manufacture on scale which required
the employment OF q large amount Of funds.
The men on q strike in MerthyT Tydril, at
meeting to-day, resolved to go back to work on
the masters' terms for two weeks, and trust to
tLe masters honor for On advance of wages for
the third week. It il probable this action will
bring the long strike to an end.

4 WORD ABOUT CITY pOLITTCa.

The discussion OF municipal politics has re-
ooivod fresh interest within tho last few days
by tho presentation Of now candidate for
Mayor,-nnd Of Candidate who will accept tho
nomination, and "throw himself" into m aotivo
campaign. Tho preaont condition Of parties may
bo thus stated: Tho Republican oflce-holdors
eomo time since fo1t that It Was part of their
duty to hold party convention aud nominate
Republican ticket for county and city officers,
from Mayor down to Oonstabloa. just hero Mr.
Hesing enterodth the aroma and made tho formal an
nouncomont TINT no Republican ticket could bo
olootod; that tho Germans Of Chicago would not
voto for tho Republican candidates, but would
voto for and oloct tho Democratic tickot This
announcement Boems to hGyo produced change
in tho Republican programme, and at tho samo
ti1no made lively impression On some Of tho
old Democratic etagers, who aro now c1amoring
for d straight-out Democratic ticket. Several
respectable citizens Of Democratic antecodonts
have bson mentioned as probable candidates for
hfayor,-each OF thom being reported as rich
enough to distribute good many tl1ou-
sands OF dollars among tho "bogs"
Lattorly, Mr.. Mark Sheridan, the pcrso-
cutod martyr OF tho Police Board,
has been proposed M tho Democratic candidate
for Mayor, mud, should a convention Of that par
ty DO callcd, ho will probably bo nominated. OF
course, Mr. Sheridan dooa not preaont his own
namo to tho oagor suifragos Of the pooplo. It
Is taken up by tho host Of Outside friends who
recognize in hiB conduct Of Police Commission
or tho qualities which they think arc needed in
tho of1co OF Mayor. Tho chances, therefore, at
this time, are, that thoro will be regular Demo-
cratic Convention, composed Of the ordinary riff
rar, to aeoot ticket Of officers for the City and
County Government Whothor thoro will bo q
regular Republican ditto Is doubtful.
It may be timely to say to tho score or two Of
political hummers. that the people Of this city
and county will tako no interest or stock in any
OF their nominations. In opposing and defoat-
ing party nominations for Municipal Govern
ment during somo yoars buck, the people Of this
city havo acted for thcir best interests, and
greatly promoted tho public welfare. In Opus
ing and defeating Republican nominations, they
t have not had any purpose Or intention to invite
tho nomination Of Democratic tickets, md, it Il
shall come to tho alternative Of closing between
Democratic and Republican nomination, they
will probably accept the lattor.
