States.
per some days ago that Secretary Chandler had
made the charge that he had distracted these
bonds, but now had abandoned the charge, and
the civil suit is brought against him in order to
make him pecuniarily responsible for a subor-
dinate clerk.
There is considerable inquiry as to why the
committee does not report on the Brstow mule
claim. Mr. Bright chairman of the sub-com-
mlttee, is known to have said that there seems
TO be something of a case against Bristow, or
else base perjury is at work.
The evidence of Thompson, in whose name
the claim was brought, has been given before
the committee, and members say that it is most
damaging, showing great fraud on the GOV
eminent. 1t is alleged on respectable authority,
that Col. Geist, now of the Treasury Depart
ment and friend of Bristow, notified him of
the character Of Thompson's claim before he
took it in hand, and Brodhead, late second
comptroller, as well as his chief clerk, has con.
firmed this by verbal and freely repeated state
