TIE UNION PACIFIC.
THOSE sroLEx BONDS.

Special Dispatch to TIE Tribune
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 12.--The Judiciary
Committee to-day continued the investigation
Of the mysteries OF the stolen bonds Of the
Union Pacific Railroad. The Treasurer, Ham,
was examined at some length, but gave the
Committee no definite information. Gen.
Greenville Dodge will be examined tomorrow.
The officers of the railroad are confident that
the Committee will be unable to discover any
thing more definite than the Company has
already learned, Which Is practically nothing.
The Company claims TINT the present investi-
CATION is instigatcd by q lawyer who has
been unable to collect money on
contract with the Company for dfscor-
ezing these bonds. The Company officers
gave them information, which told them moth
ing more than they already knew and for which
they declined to pay. This lawyer CdaguireA
on the contrary, maintains that be has furnished
the Company with evidence enough to warrant
the bringing OF suit against some Of the officers
Of the Company; thai on this account they have
not carried out their contract with him; that be
has caused this Investigation in order to assist
him in his claim
THE LITTLE nocR RAILWAY BONDS.
Mallard, Of Omaha, Harrison, Of Indianapolis,
and james F. Wilson, OF Iowa, Government
Directors OF the Union Pacific Railroad, have ar
rived here to testify in the matter Of the pur-
chase Of the So 900 Of Little Rock & Fort Smith
bonds by the Union Pacific Railroad.
The Investigation proper will begin Monday,
and 1t is possible that Wilson, who Is anxious 10
Wilson's friends gave out that he will testify
TINT he was informed that the bonds were puf-
chased BY constituent and friend Of M.
Blaine's.

| in tho session, it will he remembered, Mr.. Nor
ri11, Of Vermont, introduced bill to carry into
effect the Resumption act Of January, 1875. Sub
sc0uently it was referred to the Committee on
Finance, OF whom 1t WIS considerably discussed.
After making some slight amendments the
Committee, by q majority vote, including among
them both the Democrats, Bayard and Thur
man, ordered it to be reported. This was some
month or SIX weeks ago, but thus fur
the bill has never seen the light
This bill, as It WAS amended, and as the Com
mittee directed 1t to be reported to thu Senate,
provides that to enable the Secretary Of the
tender notes In accordance with existing law, lie
authorized to sell, at not less than par in legal
ftendcr notes, Government bonds bearing inter-
est at the rate Of per cent per annuu, ah.l
payable at the end Of forty years. The amount
OF such sales is not to exceed S24 900 during.
any single fiscal year.
TIE PROCEEDS or THESE BONDS
are to be used in obtaining legal-tcnder notes,
which are to be Cancelled aud destroyed by the
Secretary Of the Treasury.
The second section provides that nil contracts
entered into after the 1st day Of January, 1875
shall be payable in gold, unless otherwise pro-
vided at the time Of the contract.
The third section requires all National Banks
to hold in coin as part Of their lawful money
reserve, on and after the 1st Of JanuarY, 1877,
fourth; after the LIST OF January, 1873,
one~ha1f; after the LIST Of October, 1878, three
fourths.
Leading Senators, representing both parties,
are OF opinion that bill Of this character
COULD RE PASSED
II reported to the Senate BY the Finance Com
mittce, and some Of the hard-1noncy advocates
Of the House arc sanguine that by a union Of
honest-currcncy Democrats in that body with
the Republicans (aIl but fifteen Of whom would
support it) the bill could possibly receive ma-

Some time ago Alr. McCawlcy's father, who

and his astonishment may be imagined when he
discovered, shortly after breakfast, that the dog
had broken away and left for parts unknown
The loss was deeply felt BY all the family,
and steps were at once taken to discover
the whereabouts Of the animal, but all their
efforts proved unsuccessful, and the disap-
pearance remained q mystery for nearly four
weeks; indeed, no clue whatever could be
stolen as to who the thief was. So after making
many unsuccessful attempts to recover him,
Mac concluded it was mystery too deep for
solution, and resolved to quit tho search, at the
same time vowfng dire Vengenee against whose
ever should have stolen lis valuable present.
provided the thief was ever detected.
The disappearance occasioned surprise and
comment, and created q nine days. wonder, but
It is hardly possible to imagine how much more
surprise and astonishment Was felt by Mac and
his family on receipt Of the following inte1li-
gencc contained in letter from Macs father,
written about four weeks after the disappear

In this letter he informed his son that twenty

other words, that the dog, guided by his in
stlnct, had travelled 900 miles in TWENTY-FIVE
Gays. me most astonishing circumstance con-
conveyed the entire distance from Ohio to
Kansas, on his outward Journey, in an express
car, and how in the world he ever found his way
