E35r There isa rumor prevalent, set on foot
by the down country papers, that our neigh
bor of the Democrat is about closing arrange
ments to secure third interest in one of the
Allentown dailes. As the consummation Of
this project would necessitate his removal to
that locality the news is not pleasant to us,
for not withstanding that ncighbor Green
wald has his faults, as we all have, he has
his virtue too, aud our intercourse has been
anything but unpleasant since his advent
among US. Besides should he get away from
here we should be hardly put to, to find
another candidate for Congress. We hope
he may make up his mind not to go.

Some two weeks ago meeting oil

matter was carefully talked over. Under

tsken place last Saturday, but at that
tine the Union asked a delay for further
consideration. and to-day was sppolnted.
The manufacturers will ask rear

MR.. RIGGS MAKES NO CHARGES


Mr.. Riggs, it will be seen by the follow
ing extract from the testimony yesterday,
does not sanction the course of the counsel
for the memorialists. and is opposed to the
production of private papers and the expo
sure of confidential business transactions.
Mr.. Kilbourn said, under oath:
81 must respectfully decline to answer
anything relative TO our private business
until some responsible memorialist will
come forward here, over his own name, and
hold himself responsible. If he will do that,
will tell everything in connection with
our business from one end to the other. We
have business for people in all sections of
the country. People place money in our
hands for investment, and If we are brought
up here to expose that business, with no
charges made against us, no accusations of
: any kind, and for no unlawful ac., and
required to disclose our business,
people will stop putting money
In our hands, and thus our business will
be ruined. L. want somebody to be re-
sponsible before give my answers Inill
cay in this connection, as I think IL 10
proper, that Mr.. Riggs, last iceek Think IL

THE ADDITIONAL CHARGES.

The counsel for the memorialists pre-
scented an additional batch of charges
against the Board of Public Works yes.er-
day. We print them in full in other
columns. They are merely reiteration Of
the charges made in previous investigations,
which have been inquired into again and
again and satisfactorily explained. It Is
nearly two months since the memorial was
presented; we have printed nearly two
hundred columns of testimony; thousands
of pages of records have been laid bare to
the world, and here is the result: the cid
charges, and the old, old story.

HONOR TO THE USE.

The prompt action of the House yester-
day upon the bill fixing the maximum
amount of legal-tenders to be issued Is
worthy of all commentator. 1t will be
received by the country with the greatest
satisfaction as an earnest of the intention Of
Congress definitely to proceed to business.
While some will object to the sum Of four
hundred millions, and that the reissue Of
the entire forty four million reserve is thus
legalized, and the large money centres may
make strong appeals to the Senate to insist
upon three hundred and eighty-two mil
lions, The amount now outstanding, as a
compromise, it is hardly probable that the
difference of eighteen millions (Which is
less than fifty cents per capita of our popu-
lstion) will be considered by that body of
sufficient consequence to quarrel about.
This action of the House is important,
first, as showing that the members have
agreed with great unanimity to define their
position upon the currency question; and
second, that no very alarming imitation will
be insisted upon. If they shall now go
forward with the same promptitude and
provide for the redemption of these legal
tenders in coin, to commence at no distant
day, say by or before the list of JANUARY,
1876. as circumstances may indicate that the
Treasury will be able to do, the people will
know what they are handling for circu-
hting medium and how much it is worth.
1t is to be hoped, and in view of the ur-
gency of the case it is not too much to ex-
pect, that the Senate will initiate the House
by coming with alacrity to vote upon the
same question. The limit fixed by the
House bill to the volume of legal-tender
circulation can scarcely be dignifed by the
name of imitation. especially when it is con-
sidered that there is no addition to the vol
ume of currency that we have had for some
years past taken in consideration with the
fact that our growth in production and pop
ulation has been constantly increasing our
actual necessities.
ALI honor, then, to the House for the wis
dom and moderation with which it has acted
upon this subject. 1t will tend to impart
confidence to the business and industrial
interests of the country. It will stimulate
the circulation Of the currency and revive
manufactures and commerce. 1t will
strengthen the dropping faith of the laborer
and the agriculturist, and inspire o more
healthy tone and condition of affairs through
out the land.

1t was testified to yesterday:
1. That Governor Shepherd had no con
nection Whatever with Mr.. Kilbourn's real
estate transactions.
Q. That no member of the District gov
eminent WAS interested except Ex-Governor
Cooke, and he only to the extent of the
interest he held in the firm of Jay Cooke
s. Co.
8. The investment oftwenty five thousand
dollars in real estate by ex- Governor Cooke
was not his personal matter. but was in
vested for the firm of Jay Cooke & Co.
4. Columbus Alexander was one Of the
men from whom Mr.. Kilbourn bought
property. Columbus had no faith in i'm
provements; sold property at twenty five
cents foot. and year afterwards the same
property was resold at dollar foot No
wonder that Columbus is mad.
s. Mr.. Kilbourn got ahead OF Governor
Shepherd. He testified yesterday that he
bought from him ct thirty-two cents per
foot and resold one lot at eighty-six cents,
and holds some of the same lots now at one
hundred.
9. That no man connected with the gov
eminent of the District of Columbia was
directly or indirectly interested, to Mr.. Kill
bourn's knowledge, in his real estate trans.
actions, and that only one man 20 interested
