ANOTHER SCANDAL.
The Tribune gives the following &C.
count Of another scandal of which
Schenck is the subject:
Upon the heels of the Emma mine
dis grace follows another scandal, worse
in some respects than that deplorablo
affair--a scandal OF such character
that It seems to make Mr.. Schenck' 8
retirement to private life a necessity OF
the most urgent kind Documents
have recently been published which
show that in July, 1871, Mr. Norman
Wizard, who was at that time a partner
of Gen. Schencks in the business of
manufacturing ordnance, and held a
power of attorney for him, entered into
a written agreement with Juan A.
Machado to "use his best endeavors IN
procure the settlement and payment"
Of a claim of $3.50, 900 which Machado
was urging against the British govern
ment. What sort of "endeavors"
Wizard was expected to use may be in.
ferrcd from the stipulation of the con.
tract that IL he succeeded 'in securing
such settlement during the time Gen.,
Schcnck should be the minister of the
United States to Great Britain"
