The statement put forth by the secret SER
vice force Of the Treasury relative TO the late
arrests of parties charged with the robbery
OF so GOO from the Treasury comes rather
late. IL was furnished to a reporter of THE
STAR yesterday but too late for publication
In our columns. As indicated in yesterdays
issue tie statement intimates that the ar
rests were somewhat premature. and en-
braces almost daily reports To Chief WASH
burn from members of his force who had
HalleCk under surveillance from the 9TH of
JnEe NJ I'll the time Of his apprehension in
New York by Nessrs- McDevitt and Nc
Elfresh, Of this city. The reason given by
Mr.. WaSEbuTn's men for the non-arrest of
HalleCk was their failure tOObtain anything
like satisfactory legal evidence of his impli-
cation in the robbery. In this very important
particular, however, IL must be admitted
that the local detectives got considerably
the start of the Treasury people, since it is
quite unlikely that the arrests would have
been made at the time they were made
without conclusive evidence ito them of the
guilt OF the parties apprehended. The OFF,
GERS making the arrests have had altogether
too much experience In their peculiar line
OF business to act decisiyely in similar cases
without evidence which would, in their opin-
Ion. stand any legal test to which il might
be subjected AT any rate subsequent events
proved the wisdom of the arrests at the time
they were made, as there is scarce room to
doubt that the guilty parties are in custody.
We are inclined 10 believe that M. Wash
burn made mistake when he declined to
invoke the aid OF our local detectives in uu-
masking the robbers.

EIGHT States have thus far spoken
through their party conventions on
the currency question. So far as thei,
utterances show anything, their mean
ing is that both parties have absolute
ly no conference on the subject. OF
the seven Republican conventions
which have been held, four-Maine,
Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota-are
frankly in favor of honest money and
resumption. One-Pennsylvania-de.
mands imitation; and two-Kentucky
and Ohio-are about evenly balanced
between the two extremes. OF the
five Democratic conventions whicl,
have been held, three-Maine, Mime
sofa, Maryland-favor honest money
and resumption, and two-Ohio and
lowa-demand imitation. The Dem.
ocrats have nothing to say on the sub.
ject.

LEADING Democrats, generally, out
side of Ohio, appear to still cling to
the hard money principles which they
or their fathers imbibed from Jackson
and Benton. Ex-Governor Hoffman,
as reported by an interviewer, 'thinks
there is no danger of the Democratic
party becoming the champion Of an in
nation policy, yet considers that the
old issues of the war are replaced by
questions of finance Altogether, he
seems to be convinced that the Demo
cratic party has grand career before
it if it's leaders make no fatal mistakes,
and he evidently thinks that for it to
adopt imitation would be fatal mis-
take.
