immensely, and it is now called as ..bnve.
We have received more support
than we could have expected
Our supplies for the city are nearly
all at hand, and our country depots are
complete and ready for action. We can
not be too strong; therefore if there are
few among the club who will support
ua, all the better for the cause. We
neither respect Chinese or their en-
po' err As ours is secret society much
work necess sarily falls on me, the presi
dent, and we shall therefore deem it a
favor. ii you will make this kr own tc
every member. We exonerate every
anti-Coolie clnJ from any participation
IN the organization. We are true army
of picked Americans, determined TO have
Centennial of our own TO celebrate.
Signed, sworn and registered according
to the laws of the above organization.
[Signed THE PRESIDENT
A resolution was passed deprecating
on the part of unions and city clubs all
violence towards the Chinese, and calling
ON the Chief of Police to protect the
Chinese, and punish those committing
outrages on them.

Treasury Accounts.

WAsHINGTeN, June 6.-1n the Senate
to-day Mr.. Sherman, from the Commit
tee on Finance, reported back the resolu-
ton submitted by Mr.. Davis of West
Virginia, early in the session, instructing
accounts of the Treasury Department,
with the view of ascertsining whether
certain discrepancies existed therein,
with q written report giving the conclu
sion of the committee, which was ordered
to be printed and lie on 1.-THE table. The
committee describe in detail the system
of accountability provided by the statutes,
and say that so far as the keeping
and custody of the public money
covered into the treasusry is concerned,
it would be difficult to point out better
mode than is provided for by the exist
ing law. Every safeguard that has been
suggested has been furnished. No law
can prevent neglect or violations by, the
comptroilers. auditors or registers of their
public duties, but the guards and checks
upon such misconduct are as perfect rs
human ingenuity could devise, The
chan ges in these laws that the committee
recommend, are to authorize the treasur.
er to he credited with unavailable sums
charged to him, but lost through no fault
of his, by the robbery, ETC., OF
his subordinates, and of the
United States repositories, and to pro-
vide for covering into the treasury all
trust funds ON which interest alone'is to
be disbursed for the benefit of others, so
,at its expenditure may, under the gen.
eral safe guard of the laws only to be paid
out in pursuance of an appropriation by
Congress. In this connection the COM
mi,tee refer to sum of more than $2S,-
OOO,OOO which is charged against the
treasurer as being in deposit under an
act of 1887. with the several States. In
regard TO the apparent discrepancies in
the treasury accounts, the committee
point among other things to the treasury
account which shows only the warrants
paid, while the appropriation accounts
show all the warrants issued. 1t is
further shown that the financial
reports at different periods have been
made up according to the different sys
tens of bookkeeping in various respects
and that the same thing is true as To the
monthly debt statements. The detailed
explanations Of these apparent discrepsn'
cies that have been furnished to the
committee by the Treasury Departmer,
are found complete and satisfactory, AND
no change is recommended in the exist
ing system, which is declared to be the
growth of experience of the Department
since its organization. In one OF the
letters, which are embodied in the re-
port, Secretary Bristow says that IN nc
instance has there been any erssure OF
alteration IN the books or records OF thi:
Department, and the changes made il
the published reports have been only tt
express with greater accuracy the pre-
else condition of the public accounts, a
shown by such books and records.
