Mechanics Steam Fire Company No. g..
The above is one of the finest and most
efficient companies in the fire department.
The members are all workers, and Me-
chanics No. 6 is known throughout the
length and breadth of the land for deeds of
generosity, bravery and general good ser
vice.
The meeting room OF the company is
perfect parlor, elaborately finished and ele-
gantly furnished at the expense of the mem
bers themselves. During five years this
company has asked for no appropriation
from the city to aid them in keeping the
engine house in order. On Tuesday last
General A. S. Badger, Colonel j. w. Fairfax
and Mr.. William johnson, committee from
No. 6, presented petition to the City
Council, asking an appropriation sufficient
to enable them to build a stable.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that favor
able and prompt reply will be rendered to
this most reasonable request. No. has four
horses, and their stable is small and totally
inadequate for that number of horses. In
fact one of the horses has to be picketed in
the yard.
1t would be shame to longer deprive
this most deserving company Of the means
te enable them to have their engine, hose
carriage apparatus and horses properly
cared for.

War Without Arms.

All good citizens and Republicans of
Vicksburg, Mississippi, have anxiously re-
garded the actions of many evil disposed
persons in that city, which Enthusiastically
pointed to G desire for riot and bloodshed
at the coming city election, which is to
occur on the fourth proximo. 1t is believed
now, however, that the better counsel will
prevail, and the mayors proclamation
against the assembling of armed citizens
will prevail. With commendable fore
thought Lieutenant Governor Davis, acting
Governor of the State in absence of Gov
ernor Ames, has ordered that all arms in
the hands Of the militia companies of Vicks-
burg be surrendered and turned over to the
proper officer of the State designated to re-
ceive them. 1t is warfare upon new prin-
ciple, wherein before the battle friend or
foe are to lay down their weapons; but it
seems plan likely to make the combat
bloodless one. and therefore may be men
toned as safe and good.

water, met a party returning; killed one
Indian and captured seven head of horses
With the exception of this small band there
are no hostile Indians in the district.

NEW YORK.
What the Tribune Says.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Alluding to the
voluminous sworn statement of Tilton, ac-
cusing Beecher, the Tribune says:
1.-THE case now transcends the power Of
church conferences and we'll meaning mar
plots to settle or conceal unless the fright
freely The most famous pulpit orator
since Paul preached in Athens is silenced.
There is no longer safety and d:cnity in
the refusal to answer. Beecher's own hand
seems to bear witness against him. Salts
factory proof of the falsity of the accusa-
ton will be hailed as tidings of great joy,
and the position of the great preacher will
be stronger than ever in the hearts of thou
sands. If he fails to clear himself all Chris
tendon will deplere the loss, and the pistol
shot of Booth will have caused no deeper
and not so hopeless national sorrow"
A Tribune reporter has interviewed Mr..
Cleveland, wi said Mrs. Tilton and Mr..
Beecher are preparing statement, which
will be submitted to the committee on
Thursday, and which will satisfactorily ex-
plain all the correspondence between them,
and all other matters contained in Mr.. Til
tons statement No long statement will be
furnished to night.
The President.
President Grant arrived here this morning
from Long Branch on his way to Patterson,
New Jersey, to attend the reunion of the
Grand Army of the Republic.
Arrest OF a German F0rzer.
Somel time ago the German consul gen.
eral informed the police Of the escape of
John Schwick, from Germany, after com
mitting forgeries to the extent of 100000.
The arrivals Of European steamers were
watched, but he was not captured. A man
was recently arrested in Yonkers, charged
with committing burglary in a human
hair store, in the city, and brought here.
He was identified as the German forger,
and taken before United States Commits
sioner Shields to-day. He is held under the
extradition treaty, and will be sent to Ger
many on Monday.
Bank Director Arrested.
MI. Lane, one of the directors of the
National Bank, who was associated with
Charles hudson, cashier, on the charge OF
making false reports of the banks condi-
ton, was arrested to-day and held in $4,000
bail.
Adams, ex-president, and William Wade,
an ex-director, are also to be arrested.
The Lake Shore Road.
The executive committee of the Lake
Shore railroad decided that no dividend be
paid.
The question of leasing the road to the
New York Central was not entertained.
and it locks now as if the report that it
would be was stock jobbing canard.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1874-07-23

The Washington correspondent Of the st.
Louis Republican says:
The new Solicitor of the Treasury has
prepared most of his report on the secret
service force. As result of his investiga-
tions in New York, he recommends that the
whole secret service division be abolished,
the Office in New York closed, and that the
whole present force be discharged, and all
records Of that Office be brought to the
treasury for full examination. He has not
found evidence duplicating Colonel Whitley
or his force in the safe burglary, but to-day
he received information which decided him
to return at once to New York and con-
tinue this branch of inquiry. The report,
however, deals with the general character
and condition of this force, and concludes
that it is not properly executing its mission,
and that the government is not receiving
an adequate return for the large sums 1t
eypends upon this force. Hereafter duties
of the kind it has attempted will probably
be entrusted to United States marshals and
attorneys in the several districts.

Boston, July 2l.-Jesse r. Pomeroy made
full confession of the murder OF Katy
Curran to Chief of Police Savage to-day,
which he read at the coroner's inquest. 1t
was in the following words:

to about the middle of the cellar and stood
facing Broadway. l followed her, put my

mouth, and with knife in my right hand
cut her throat. l then dragged her to and
behind the water closet, laying her head

Gay Times In Biloxi.


EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
The boys of Louisiana Hose arrived here
all safe and virtuous, ard their reception
was pleasant. After taking a fine lunch
with Widow Drysdale, by way of settle
ment, they visited the revenue cutter John
A. Dix, simply because Captain Freeman
expressed an admiration Tor the company.
The skiff regatta, yesterday, was quite a
success; there were three of the first class,
and three Of the second class. The Natchez,
owned by Mr.. Israel, of New Orleans, took
the first prize, 500, greatly to the aston
ishment of the friends of the Amelia. The
Pargoud won the second prize, $50.
After the above races, third class skitfs
came in, and You Bet took all that was in
sight.
The more sedate class of people are look
ing forward to the Methodist camp meeting,
which will begin next Friday. The grounds
are all in order and the buildings we'll fitted
up for the occasion. 1t is expected that
the attendance will be greater than ever
before.
One portion of my visit here was to look
after the Louisiana Hose Company. but
they scattered terribly as soon as they
reached here. The members certainly en-
ioyed themselves to their hearts content,
partaking of all enjoyable things.
Saturday night Widow Drysdale cleared
her diningroom and neatly trimmed it, as
there was to be ball. The band had barely
sounded note before the floor was crowd
ed with happy-faced people, and they did
not cease to dance until the musicians felt
compelled to retire. Sunday was passed as
the previous day, but with one delightful
variation. Captain Freeman invited US to
board the revenue cutter, and we cuttered.
Her commander is certainly a solid brick.
and ditto for his officers. They looked
sorry when not contributing something for
our benefit, and the Hosiers appreciated the
attention.
One item, small in itself and unexpected,
brought forth rousing cheer. just as the
company was leaving the hotel to take the
homeward bound cars the cutters big gun
belched farewell. When at the depot the
men found it difficult to move, the crowd
of friends being SO great. Kind kisses and
good wishes went after the blue shirts in
| myriads.
Before departing the company called on
Mr.. c. T. Howard, Richard Charles, Joseph
Hornor and Dan Malone, all members of
the Hose, and others. There were some
neat speeches made at Mr. Howard's house,
and his welcome was indeed glorious.
The hotels are we'll filed. but there is
little mirth among the visitors. I hear that
other watering places are nearly deserted;
that is, there are few transient people at
the public resorts.
Mrs. Drysdale, who still keeps the Hole
| in the Wall, and Dan Malone, who has the
| saloon, are fully prepared to receive
Protector No. 9, next Thursday; also,
Home Hook and Ladder, on the eighth
