several and that evidence regard to some was
before the Committee. He was asked what he knew
about any such interest Of the Hon. A. Z. harmer
OF PENNSYLVANIA, as he had asserted IN
letter. The witness said that he kne"
that Postmaster Bingham Of Philadelphia had
boosted in the presence of many persons In Phlia-
dephia that he had a contract in Washington that
he had made $4,000 out of it that the money had
been used to elect Hartranft and that Mr. Harmer
was interested with him. Mr. Gibson refused TO
say who his informant in regard to Mr.. Harmer was,
and given by the Committee until tomorrow TO
consult with his informant. He said that, If the
Committee would like to know something about the
cost of the District Government he knew that Mr.
Harrington, who was questioning him. drew two
saares-One of 81 600 as Secretary of the District
and of $4,000, as Assistant District-Attorney
Mr.. Harrington said that be got no salary for the
latter, but was paid from the fees Of the District
Attorneys office.
Mr. Harmer appeared before the Committee and
denied emphatealy that he had ever either directly
Indirectly, had any interest in contracts IN WASH
ngtOn. lie admitted that he had recommended for
employment by the Board, constituents, and mght
have done the for contractors, but held that
there was nothing improper IN 1t. The last witness
was Thomas Evans, who showed from reports OF the
Board that the Board has sold sewer pipe to certain
contractors at certain prices and then bought II
back at higher prices. He also showed that the
charges for sewer pipe were more than twice what
they reasonably ought TO be.
A great deal of comment is heard about The Cap
itOl in regard to the payment of fee OF $4,000 for
an argument in favor of an award of a contract.
Those who do not think chat the fee was. suspi-
ciQusly large look upon the whole tendency ct the
testimony in regard to tue De Golyer and McClel-
Ian contracts as Notwithstanding that the scale of
prices fixed blythe Board was unreasonably high and
their establishment and abolition Of all competition
proves either dishonest purpose to enrich certain
favored contractors or criminal incompetence.

CURRENT TOPICS AT THE CAPITAL.
ABOLITION OF THE MILEAGE SYSTEM.

WASHINGTON. Wednesday April Is. 1874.
Measures that look TO economy or reform are not
regarded with a favoring eve by the House. Never
theless, when obliged to go upon the record by
Yea and Nav vote, it is seldom that majority can
be found with courage enough TO oppose them.
There was good Illustration of tins to-day, when
Mr.. Bundy's bill abOlishing mileage was passed by
an overwhelming majority, although it was evident
that at least ninetenths Of the members would have
been glad to see it defeated An effort to suppress
the bill by recommittal was first made, and when
this failed motion TO table made, with the
hope that it could be carried without roll call
When the Yeas and Nays were ordered, however
only Gi men were willing to face the record in favor
of preserving the venerable mileage abuse. The bill
was then passed by l6s Yeas to 40 Nays 1t abOshes
the entire Congressional mileage system, and subst
tues for IL allowance of actual travelling expenses
incurred by members in coming 10 W ashington ana
returning home. every session. After the pas
sage of the bill. an indignant Missouri member, MT.
Bland, offered resolution declaring that the Capital
ought 10 he removed forthwith 20 some central lOca-
ton, to be hereafter determined uDOu. 1lr. Kice
proposed TO insert Chicago aud Mr.. Crook remarked
tnat Cheyenne City was the most cen. Ia point Inc
Speaker took the resolution bit OF sarcasm, ana
did not put 10 TO IA vote.
REPRESENT ALIVE KELLOGG AS RETORMER.
As Civil Service Reformer, Mr.. Kellogg is not
always Trustworthy. He started off very well yes
terday with his bill to abolish the bakers dozen OF
useless Appraisers Of Customs but to-day, when the
general Appropriation bill was up, he disappointed
members who bad begun 10 look upon him a new
leader in the path of retrenchment, by moving to
increase the salaries of the two Reading ClerRs from
$500 to $1,000 each. These gentlemen are efficient
and popular officers, fully earn their salaries, and
few members felt like voting against tue motion.
As soon as it was carried it became obvious that 1t
was the entering wedge for series of amendments
to increase the pay of nearly all the clerks and
other officials and employees. An amendment rails
ing the salaries of the Chief Clerk and Journal
Clerk from $1,000 to s. go carried and was
followed by another TO add $500 the salaries OF
the Assistant Journal Clerk and Tally Clerk. which
also went through in spite Of the protests OF Mr..
Garfield that this was undOng what the House had
Just accomplished IN the passage of the bill repeal
ing the general salary increase OF last session. ms
argument in the end, proved effective Tor amend
ments were voted down raising the pay OF the other
clerks and OF the Doorkeeper and Sergeant-at- Arms

HOLLY TREE INNS.
STILL ANOTHER SUGGESTION.


To the EDITOR OF The Tribune.
SIR: In addition TO my suggestions made in TO-
days TRIBUNE apropos of Holly Tree Inns, let me
add another by way of postscript. Were every
clergyman interested in temperance TO bring this
subject before his congregation, and were every con-
gregation thus interested TO establish Holly Tree
Inn. the cause would obtain downright practical
support. 1t might be possible also to form a union
Of these Inns, in which case Christian fellowship
among the churches would prevail to greater ex-
tent than at present. KATE FIELD.
