BUTLER TACTICS.

BUTLER TACTICS.
There is some gossip concerning the action of
Gen. Butler this morning in moving to recon-
slider the vote of y esterday by which the House
agreed to give to the Committee on Expendi-
lures in the Department of Justice power to
send for persons and papers in order to promote
the purposes of the investigation into the ex
penses of the MarshaPs Office in the Western
Judicial district of Arkansas. Upon an ex-
animation of the journal this morning the
resolution seems to have been adopted by
unanimous consent, and not under a suspen-
sion of the rules, so that General Butler had
the right t. reconsider. When the argument
upon this motion shall come up there will be q
very bitter opposition to Butler's motion. 1t is
well known that the Department of Justice
has long desired tho most thorough investi-
cation into these expenditures.
THE MoIETIEs QUESTION.
The Committee on Ways and Means, this
morning, had under consideration the subject
of payments of moieties to collectors, fraud in
formers and the seizures of papers and books.
The City of Boston was represented by Messrs
Rice, Chandler, Nourse, Hyde. Spaulding and
others; New York by Messrs, Shultz, Robbins,
Dodge and Others The proceedings opened by
the reading of testimony which Mr.. Jayne gave
the committee week OF SO ago, III Una q o.
sence of the merchants, and at its conclusion
he resumed. He began with good deal of
warmth, and, in vehement manner, read from
newspapers statements of Rufus Story of New
York, accusing him of defrauding the govern
ment by underweighing cargo of pepper, and
in connection with which it was alleged that
the firm had paid $1OO, 900 in settlement, where
as the statement rendered to the Treasury show
ed that the government had received but $1O,-
900. This, Jayne did not specifically DENY, but
said that the missing 900 was paid to the
attorney; that he (Jayne) never had anything
to do with taking moneys in such cases; that it
was paidsto the District Attorney. Members
of the committee ruled that so serious an accu
sation against a hitherto respectable firm should
not be entertained in the absence of the party
concerned. Jayne then lost his temper, and
declared that there was a combination of
thieves against him, and he defed the efforts
OF all concerned to put him down. He pro-
ceeded in this strain until interrupted by the
acting Chairman, Mr. Kelley, VINO declar
ed the committee would not listen to such lam
guage and, if proceeded with, he should be or
dered from the room. Mr.. Jayne thereupon
apologized, and was allowed to proceed. In
the case of Storey & Co, he stated that the loss
sustained by the government, though under
valuation, or failure to pay duties was $4,000
while the penalty was $4,000, the remission
acts not covering the case The committee
then refused to hear him any more in specific
cases, and the rest of the time was occupied ty
