We have more than once referred to LIBEL
Gus statements in the Democratic papers to
the effect that the money OF the State be-
longing to the Inspection Fund was ordered,
officially, to be placed in the Cook County
Bank ns the basis Of credit for newspaper
in Chicago. This statement, We have in
sisted, should be refuted in Justice to the
State officers.
But now Mr.. B. F. ALLEN makes another
revelation, which is Of more Importance.
Though n[r. ALLEN. and his Cook County
BanG were notoriously bankrupt, and had
been bankrupt for years, he puts it On
record, in writing, that, few days be-
fore he had to close his doors, an ar
rangement had been made by which tho
newly-elected Treasurer Of the Stote Of ILL.,
nois was to deposit with Kim in his bank
the moneys Of the State. During the months
Of November and December, 1874, he con-
fesses that he frequently did not have over
$1,000 in money in his bank On the 7th Of
December he obtained, he says, from Mr.
PILL WADBwonTH, the newly appointed Col
lector of Internal Revenue in this city, q
promise Of the Government deposits, if Sec
retary BE1Brow would give his assent but
this does not seem to have boon obtained.
On JAN 6, 1875, he writes: " PALMER, Of
the Inter- Ocean" has returned from special
mission to Springfield, and says that the
State Treasurer promises us the State de-
posits- The Treasurer gets into Office on tho
11th, and We shall have the deposits ~ soon
Us possible"
This is A11M'a statement of what PALMER
had assured him was tho promise Of the
State Treasurer Of Illinois, The 18th OF
January came On Monday, being the day on
which the newly-elected Treasurer, Nr.
RzDawAx, was to enter his Office.
On that fatal Monday ALLEN sold $16o, 600
exchange drafts On New York, where he had
no money; tho drafts vera returned dishon-
ored; he was obliged to take every cent in
the bank of all kinds, and belonging to every
body, to take up these protested drafts, Or
close his doors Still, so strong were his as-
surances from PALMER Of relief from Spring.

endowment. Nj. ASnERsos's gift only pro-
vided two years. support Of the school Tbs
pupils in attendance, for: their part, can con-
tribute very little in the way OF tuition. They
come from very poor}y-paid class, and have
as much as they can do to pay their own ez-
penses while on the island. The professors,
on the other hand, can scarcely afford to give
up their vacaton-season to teaching, without
remuneration Of some sort And SO the En-
terpriss falls through, unless soma. worthy

CHICAGO'a MUSICAL BILL.


We print elsewhere detailed statement OF
the money which has boen paid by the con-
cert and opera-goers Of Chicago for their
music during the season which is now viz
tually closed, embracing the months from
September to June, inclusive. The state
ment is complete, excepting the patronage
bestowed upon the Beethoven Society and
Apollo Club, which it is very difficult to esti-
mate, inasmnch as the membership tickets in
these organizations are not all limited by q
season, and the Turner Hall receipts The
total amount by our showing is $112, ,573+25,
and it is possible TINT the additional receipts
at the concerts mentioned might swell
the amount to 1920, 900. Of the first sum
mentioned, $s5, 1880 have been devoted to
purely 1ocal music, and $77,+41.75, Or
little more than twice as much, to
foreign music, in the shape Of traE-
cling operatic and concert troupes.
Tho details Of these totals are Of
interest. The English opera troupe, which
had the good fortune to open the season, aud
get the cream thereby, in two weeks did the
large business Of 1886, ,076.75, OF IN average Of
$2,577 for each Of its fourteen performances,
"a sum almost equal to the combined re-
ceipts Of all other foreign performances, and
yielding very handsome profit to the mana-
gers, Miss KELLOGG and Mr. Hess. The
italian opera troupe, on the other hand, was
not SO fortunate. It's two weeks season WAS
very poor one, the total receipts being
but $18, ,7s5, or an average Of $1,341 for each
performances. With troupe twice as expen-
sive as tho English, its receiptswere only half
ns large, and the season was disastrous
one, which Immediately preceded its dis
ruphon, as the management had hoped to re-
trieve its Eastern losses here. The opera
boutfe troupes proved signal failures,-a fact
which goes to show that this class Of enter
tainment is waning in popularity. The best
business was that Of the A1arx troupe at the
Academy OF Music, which in one week took
&6,22s.5o. The Girofe- -Giro1a troupe in one
week received hut s., 1901 and the So1DEsz
troupe, in two weeks, only $a,286.5o, or an
average OF $1G3 for each performance. The
two THoaAs orchestral seasons were moder-
ately remunerative, yielding $11, ,164, show
ing that good u1uao, eren in dull eeason,
still retains it's hold upon the people. The
De MunsKA, ADELAIDE PHn1nps, CAMILLA
URso, and dR1cHgos-BEnNAR concerts were al
financial failures, although they furnished us
some most excellent music. The only troupe
which hns made decided profit is the En-
glish opera organization, aud this for thres
reasons: 1t vaa ths first to occupy ths asld;
