CAN'T PLAY JACKSON.
Granf's s.IntraetabIe Attitude on the
FIuances-The Financial Question
Worse MuddIed Than Ever.

Worse Iuddled 1ban Ever.
Washington Correspondence CJunc s. of the
New York Herald.
From statements made by members
of the Joint Committee of Conference
the financial question received to-day
its most thorough handling. For the
third time three hours session was
had, proving to be, IN the language of
Senator among them, zone of the
most interesting which have yet taken
place" This seems wonderful to state
and impossible to believe; but the over
lures which have been made by Sena-
tors and members to the President for
the past few days. eliminating in
the extraordinary device of getting
the Presidents pleasure or IN
structions through the medium of the
correspondence of a conspicuous Sena-
tor with the President, have excited a
very considerable ire among Senators.
The remark is still more boldly made
tonight that he cannot play jackson
with Congress" There was according
ly a meeting of apparent Indignation
held this morning in the room of the
Acting President of the Senate, at
/
which Senators Morton. Ferry, Logan,
Wright and a number of other Repub-
Hcans were present, and the intracta-
bic attitude of Gen. Grant on the
finances, together with the moral re-
suit of what is termed dictation on his
part, was freely canyassed. The ex-
pansionists think he is acting very
badly, since it is developed from the in
terviews of Senators Sherman and
Jones and Representative Farwell that
the President is very emphatic in his
special desire for the total retirement
Of the greenbacks. Senator Sherman
is very much concerned about reaching
a conclusion before the end of Con-
gress, and feels that great responsible
ty rests with the Republican party to
do something for the finances. The
Committee adjourned without conclud-

FINANCIAL.
LOCAL STOCKS,

We hear of no new feature to note in
financial matters. The banks report but
little demand for discounts, though the
rate is still firm AZ 10 per cent. There are
many persons who wish to borrow on real
estate for term OF years, but lenders re-
quiTe bonds or stocks as security, and on
such cOllaterals money is easy to be OBJ
tanned.
Gold is lower, closing in New York at
110s. For the small lots offered here deal
ers pay l0961l0, while they hold at Ill.
Silver is taken at 103 for halves and quar-
tiers.
Government securities are lower. The
following are the quotations at 2:lJ:

A New Steamer in the Trade.

The light-draught steamers of the
Goodau, Nelson 4 Perkins Line hav-
ing succeeded i'm landing at the Will
mington wharf, and the fact that
everything points to the encourage
ment of a direct connection of ship and
rail without the Intervention of the
lighters, has demonstrated to the Pa
cific Mail Line the necessity of pre-
pairing to compete for this business.
They have accordingly ordered the
"Ancon'' large, well-fitted and ex-
ceedingly light draught steamer to
take her place on their line from San
Francisco to Wilmington, and we are
informed she will at once begin her
trips. IS b -
The "Ancon" is of one thousand tons
burthen, has ample accommodations
for the business that will be required
of her, and when loaded to her fullest
capacity, will draw but eight feet of
water. ''''se 4s5Q49ft1 81"
She will thus be1able to come direct
to the wharf, and as we understand
the depth of water on the bar is con-
tinually increasing, we have a reason
able assurance, that the lighteragc
burden, so far as freights are concerned,
is practically in the way of being
abolished. IA ...v
This will be gratifying news to the
wide circle of country trading at Los
Angeles, and we hope before long to
be able to state that the necessity for
the use of lighters has passed entirely
away. FHfsi" ifat ? r@Anh

The Warehouse and Shipping Association.


We are especially gratified to learn
that the work ON the wharf to be built
bv the Southern California Warehouse
and Shipping Association is progress
ing rapidly. Some days ago the
HERALD announced that all the ma
terial for the construction of the wharf
had been purchased, and now We can
add that work is going on, over four
hundred feet of grading having alrea-
dy been done. or aT4#rE9,
The character of the gentlemen
forming this association is a sufficient
guaranty that the undertaking will
be fully carried out, and if anything
more be needed to give the enterprise
strength and popularity, it has been
secured by the appointment of Col.
Norman Z. Jones as Superintendent.
Col. Jones was formerly the energetic
Superintendent of the Mobile and At
lantic Fast Freight Line, and to his
business and drive the handling of
grain in bulk and its distribution
In large quantities through the port Of
New Orleans to. the South Atlantic
States Is largely due. glsaIF1 i'A
A brief connection with the press of
the Mississippi Valley has given the
writer many opportunities of learning
of Col. Jones' operations i'm connection
with that great enterprise, and what
he accomplished there is the best evil
dence of his ability to carry to a sue
cessful conclusion the objects of the
Shipping Association. "a -

pear to have lived more tremendously
than could be expected. Quite UNI
like each other in many respects, it is
marvel how they managed. Eng
was stronger and more healthy than
Chang; their physical feelings and
states of mind were unlike; they did
not always want to do the same thing
any more than any other two persons
A couple of days before their death,
Chang having become chilled by ex-
posure during drive, complained of
being very cold, while his partner was
in apparent good health, and grum-
bled because he had to sit by the fire.
Again Eng protested and said he
wished to lie down, as he was sleepy.
Chang stoutly refused, and replied
that it hurt his breast to recline. AT
ter while they returned to their bed,
and Eng fell into deep sleep. Doubt
less they had more frequent disagree
ments than was generally supposed;
but they understood that their intimate
relation to each other could not safely
be broken, and made the best of their
condition. Years ago certain expert
ments were tried upon the twins by
leading surgeons in London, by whom
it was decided that the severing Of the
connecting ligament would imperil
both lives. 1t Is said that for many
years past the brothers have lived UNI
der solemn compact which has been
rigidly observed. This was that eve
ry alternate three days one Of the
twins should do as he pleased, the 9th
err being merely an appendage, and
having no right to go anywhere of his
own wish or attend any of his own
personal affairs. This arrangement
they observed with great exactness.
