WASHINGTON, May rs.
Commissioner Roach, accompanied
by Congressman Piper, had an inter-
view with Secretary Fish to day on the
| Chinese question. The Secretary re-
peated the assurance he had heretofore
given as to his desire t. aid in securing
remedies for the evils com piained of,
but added that he anticipated much
opposition to the movement. He said
that the religious element of the conn.
try is now agitating the subject and
urging a continuance of the present
treaty on account of the presumed
value in facilitating missionary work
for the conversion of the heather. He
said there was also opposition from the
wne of American vessels plying in
Chinese waters; but he thought, never
theless, that the treaty should be mod
flied.

NEW YORK, May 81.
The WorId's Washington special
says it is expected that testimony will
be taken in a few days before one of
the House Committees showing son
clusively that some of the redeemed
Treasury notes which were ordered
burned several years ago, were alb
stracied at the time and are now in cir
culation. These note>a are first counted,
put in packages, and then cut in halves
and burned in the presence of the Com
missioner; but after counting it is said
some packages we're distracted mt off
ferent times, amounting TO lhousaI DIS.
The author of the story that "A large
amount of money was expended to
pass the Hawaiian treaty bill claims to
be able and willing To give names and
facts TO the committee. The story is
regarded as IA canard.
The Times Washington special says
Admitting that Blame is 80 far likely
To lead the convention neither OF the
candidates now particularly strong can
achieve the nomination, and there are
to be found many among the friends of
all candidates that will admit of many
chances in favor of some Ole who has
not MANY delegates.
Speaking of the testimony to-day in
the Blame mater tie says: Hunton
promised 10 close the invest CATION as
speedily AS possible. OF course Blaine
is anxious to have it ended before the
meeting OF the convention. He has no
reason TO complain OF the action of the
committee towards him thus far. They

What the Herald Thinks About
Cincinnati-Invesii alton.
New YORK, May u.
The Herald, editorially, says: The
Subcommittee of the Congressional
Committee on the Department OF JUS
tice, OF which Meade Is chairman, con
tinued the investigation Yesterday al
the Aston House, into the Davenport
and other cases. The object OF the in-
duiry in this city is to get at the truth
IN regard to Davenport's hill, whieh
they allege they are unable to extraci
from witnesses at Washington.
The Herald, re giewing the political
situation, repeats hat Blaine will be
within 100 delegates Of "A majority
when lie enters the convention. and
the highest vote he will receive will be
On the first ballot. Outside of his own
State, New England sends "a Delegates;
and of these AZ will not vote for Blaine.
A candidate who is so weak in his own
section, where he is best known, and
who is repudiated by Pennsylvania,
the State of his birth, H. not likely to
gain strength during the progress of
the convention. Ii has been conceded
from the beginning that Hariranft will
be Withdrawn, and that he will not be
receiving a single vote IN addition to
those of Pennsylvania. Nobody even
affects to doubt that the Pennsylvania
delegation will support Conkling when
Hartranft is Withdrawn. With the
votes OF New York and PENNSYLVANIA
CoDkIing only needs those of Ohio To
secure his nomination, if he should get
2O5 of TIE southern vote; and 1t seems
probable that he will receive IA much
larger number when the friends of
Moron admit that he "a not he nom
mated. 1t Is safe to assume that Nor
ton will not be the successful candi-
dale, and as soon as he is out OF the
field the Administration influence will
wheel the Southern delegation into
line in support of Conkling. SO, II
Governor HAYES will accept the nom
ination for Vice President, there is "a
straight and easy path to a Conkling
triumph in convention. With this
understanding, The Ohio delegates will
be transferred to Conkling, and Conk-
ling and Hayes will make the strong-
est ticket, because it will secure sue
cess in the two great pivotal States of
New York and Ohio, on which the
election will mainly turn. Blaine
would be weak in New York and
would add nothingto his party strength
in Ohio, and has not the slightest
chance of getting the Morton or Bris-
tow delegates when these candidates
are taken "a of the race. The fore
gone certainty that he could not re-
trieve New York from the Democrats
Is of itself a fatal bar TO his nomina-
ton; for without the vote of New York
il is impossible to elect a Republican
President.
