WASHINGTON, April 22.-The Presi-
dent has vetoed the finance bill. The
Cabinet was in session from IL 80 till
nearly 2 o'clock. The finances was the
single subject of discussion. At 2:2O,
Gen. Babcock, Private Secretary of the
President, delivered the message to the
Senate, which was read Immediately at
the request of Senator Conkling. The
President returns the finance bill with
out his signature, and says the fact can
not be concealed that the bill increases
the paper circulation of the country to
the amount of hundred million dol
lars, which, in his belief, is n departure
from true principles of finance, and it's
approval would be a departure from
every message to Congress by him on
that subject.

THE Supreme Court of the United States has
given decision in favor of Governor O'Narcy,
of Boston, confirming the validity Of $4,000
worth OF Illinois registered town bonds issued
in aid OF the Illinois Grand Trunk Railroad.
The town attempted to avoid paying interest on
the bonds, alleging they were Illegally issued.
The decision Of the court was that no irregular
ity precedent to the issue, not even fraud on the
part of the agent Of the town, can vitate bonds
in the hands OF an innocent holder.
