Judge Noah Daviss testimony before the
Ways and Means Committee concerning the
operation of the seizure and moiety laws was
one of the most striking features of that in
vestigation. Mr.. Davis was United States
District Attorney during the prosecution of
several important Custom-house suits; he is
familiar with the machinery and effect of these
proceedings. A verbatim report of his evil
dence will be published in THE TRIBUNE to-
morrow.

The SanbOrn conspiracy trial began yester-
day in Brooklyn under circumstances not the
most encouraging for the people. The de-
PENDANTS appeared by able and distinguished
counsel, and United States Commits
sioner gave them the countenance OF
his office. But while the issue is one
of the utmost importance to the
country. the proper officers of the Govern
ment at Washington left the young District
Attorney and a single assistant to fight I'M
aided for its rights in the Courts. The strug-
gle is between earnest and enthusiastic but
not experienced counsel on one side and great
legal ability and adroitness on the other. If it
were not that Right is on the side OF the
Government there would be grave grounds for
fear. That the evidence is on the same side
the defense almost admit by their tactics
as developed yesterday; they have resorted
already to trivial objections. and doubtless
mean to fight the issue on mere legal techni-
calities. They appeal not to the jury but the
Judge, and it may happen that it is Judge
Benedict who is to decide the case. The temper
of the people will i'll brook a defense based on
mere techniealties OF law; and Judge Benedict,
we feel sure, cannot be so blind to the I'M
portance of the issue as to give such points
as Mr.. Tracy yesterday advanced any undue
weight. Upon this court, from judge to counsel
and jury, the cOuntry's eyes are fixed, and
they WI not forget the gravity of the occasion.

The Senate seems to dislike resumption as
much as contraction. While the Finance Com
mittee's bill for the redemption and reissue OF
United States notes was before that body,
yesterday, the second section was struck ont
by a vote of % to %. This section provided
that after Jan. 1, 1876, the Treasury might re-
deem greenbacks in coin; or if there were no
gold to spare, the greenbacks might be re-
deemed by five per cent gold bonds. AS
Senator Sherman said in debate, this was an
important part of the BILL 1t did
not contemplate contraction, for the
Secretary was authorized to pay out the re-
deemed notes. But the infationists seem inn
patient with anything that does not promise
an indefinite continuation of iredeemable
currency This section was voted out OF the
bill because it looked toward returning to
specie basis.

The impending resignation of Mr. Van Mort,
announced at the heels of legislative session

everything again at sea. Mr.. Van Mort has

him TO say that, so far as the public have been

Investigation into the management of the
work on the State Capitol building is not re-
assuring. One contractor who testified yester-
day shows that there was some jugglery about
awarding the contract for granite, the lowest
bid not being accepted. The conclusion OF
the evidence just put in is to the effect that
by an allowance of one inch to the contractors
for stone about $4,000 has been lost TO the
State. This is not a cheerful beginning of an
inquiry.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1874-03-31

Some Of the revelations made lately Iii the
District of Columbia investigation are very
funny. Yesterday, for example, it came out
that of three men employed in experimenting
the building of sewer. one was shoe
maker, one a blacksmith, and the third q
bricklayer. OF the last-named it is said that
he knew too much he was discharged. Then
we hear of Legislative clerks and others hav-
ing fat contracts; and one of these favored
individuals is reported to have gone to Cali
fornia for the benefit of his health with an
Interior Department commission in his pockeO,
leaving in his safe certain vouchers and docu-
ments just now specially desired.
We have no sort of sympathy with the means
TO which the Erie strikers have resOrted to
secure their claims. Gov. Hartranft has
taken a judcious course in ordering out the
militia, aud we sincerely trust that the road
may be able to make good Its po-
sition against any combination like the
present. But-this much being granted
it remains to say that for road
whose officers bitterly denounce an Auditor
who declares that its finances are not i'll good
condition, and denOunce equally any person
who accepts his statements, there can be no
excuse for the failure to pay its wOrklngmen
their lust dues. If the Eric Road is as pros
porous as it's officers have maintained III their
denunciation of Mr. Dunan, they are inexcusa-
BILE for bringing this trouble upon themselves
and upon the public.

An alarm of fire was sounded last
night about III o'clock. The alarm
proceeded from the Chinese tenement
house on Los Angeles street, near
Also. How the fire originated is
mystery, as nobody was present at the
time except Cinnamon, who did not
"sabbyn enough English TO explain.
The /" Thirty Fights" turned out
in force and were soon on the spot
with the engine, hose cart and ladders,
but were not called on for service, as
the blaze had been extinguished by
the timely application of a few buck
cts of water. Had the flames got q
little more Roadway, quite serious
confiagration would have resulted, as
the old tenement building contains
the best kind of material for such
purpose. ~" 3 -
On Tuesday night next, Mr.. Stephen
Massett, known throughout the length
and breadth of the land under thenom
de plume of "Jeems Pipes" will give
one of his excellent entertainments at
the MERGED Theater in this city. This
is Stephens last appearance on the
Los Angeles boards, and we hope our
people WILL make this farewell of such
an accomplished reader, eloquent
speaker, graceful actor and genial
gentleman, q farewell benefit which
shall cause to- live in his memory
through years to come an endearing
remem brance Of Los Angeles. His
entertainments are of the most refined
and elegant character--pleasing to all,
offensive to none. 3t 4.l9fiilft.

Our popular fellow citizen, Herman

Mayor power to impose such sentence,

The New York Nation is an indie

on the condition of the South in the
following characteristic manner: "Af-

subject of reconstruction. Give the
negroes the ballot, we said, and pre-
vent any political discrimination on
account Of race, color, or previous con-

of a large part of the South to the con-
