in the Assembly over the proposed change in
the system of voting, persons in a position to
know the relative strength of the parties and
influences being brought to bear upon the va
rlous groups irto which they are subdivided,
have been calculating the probable votes for
and against the government. The conc ,usiOn
arrived at after careful analysis of the oppos-
Ing forces, is, that the voting by departments
will command majority. As the system of
voting by departments which now prevails, is
sIIenuousiy supported by the republicans, the
ministry is likely to have a triumph in the
coming parliamentary battle.

Dishonest Supervisor.
NEW YORK, Nov. GA St. Louis special to
the Tribune says no indictment is known to
have been found against either Orville Grant,
Gen. Babcock or Frederick Dent. The same
despatch states that during his last visit to St.
Louis, Gen. Mcdonald, late Supervisor and one
of the Presidents fast friends, sent up his
card. Grants reply, as learned from a raspon-
sible listener, was:-
"Tell Gen. Mcdonald that cannot receive
or hold any interview with government Off
Ger under Indictment for defrauding the reve-
nue."
1t is not seriously believed that Gen. Bah
cock and Orvle Grant are in the whiskey
ring.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-The latest reliable
information here concerning the whiskey ring
indictments of st. Louis is that the reported
indictment of Gen. o. e. Babcock is sensa-
tional canard.
Sixty Indictments i'm Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-The United States grand
jury have found indictments for frauds upon
the revenue in connection with the whiskey
business, against 60 persons. mostly resident in
Chicago. The list includes those arrested at
the outbreak of the whiskey war and who gave
victims have been added from wealthy rectii-
ers down 10 lmpecuniouS gaugers and store
keepers. 1t is reported that one of the parties
has defrauded the government out of $4,000
per month, while others come nearly up to that
figure.
A number of indicted officials and dstillers
appeared in court this mornog and gave bonds
for their appearance to answer. The amount
of the bonds range from $4,000 to $4,000.
The 81. Louis Gases.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. Cool Chapman of the
stamp bureau at Washington has arrived here
to assist in preparing the whiskey cases. which
are to come up during the next term of the
United States court. Though many of the &C
cused have put in the plea Of guilty it is still
necessary to put in a certain amount of evil
dence in order that the judge can intellgently
sentence the delinquents. Col. Chapman
states that any amount of testimony is in the
hands of the government, more than is neces-
sary, especially in cases in which the accused
have pleaded guilty. He also testified that
overtures had been made at Washington in be-
half of the guilty men, offering the surrender
of all they possess, on condition that the gov
eminent will not press the criminal part of the
proceedings. These overtures were received
with no disposition. to consider them. The
grand jury adjourned this noon until Monday.
without presenting any more Indictments.
