TREASURER SPINNER doubts whether cover
ing back pay into the Treasury, as repentant
members are doing. places it legally beyond
their reach. The money is theirs by law. and,
as the transfer to the United States is without
consideration, it is a question whether any
legal defense could be made to the suit Of an
heir-at-law for instance, for its recovery. "A
Washington dispatch says the Manitoba ques-
ton will be brought before a British tribunal
in few DAYS. Minister Thornton says the
British Government is firm in its conviction
that the action of its officials was strictly in
accordance with law, and expresses his con-
viction that the decision of the court will be
adverse to the parties in custody. The court
win be held at Fort Garry, Winnepeg.
Meanwhile, the proposition to release the
American prisoners on bail is rejected.
IT is stated that the Secretary of the Treas
ury is maturing plan by which banks may be
detected and punished for aiding gold con-
spirators The Postmaster-GeneraI states
that the revenue of his department has largely
increased since the abolition of the fraDking
privilege. and thinks that it will be self-sus-
tanning by the close OF the year The POST
Office Department has great trouble with the
contractors who supply the postal cards. They
have utterly failed to comply with the condi-
tions of their contract, and constantly furnish
cards below the standard. The contract calls
for paper that costs the makers 70 cents q
pound, but they furnish paper that really costs
them but Is cents pound. 1t is said the mill
owners and contractors are in collision in the
fraud.
