FROM WASHINGTON.
Special to the Courier-Journal.l

Special to the Courier-Journal.l
WASHINGTON, September 1.-Word
is continually being received here by
the Republican leaders of trouble in
their ranks in Ohio. The Sherman
men are crestfallen over the failure of
the State to become enthusiastic over
his advent into the campaign. The
Grant people are fighting Sherman
and Foster and sending out circulars
against Garfield. The indications are
that if the Stalwarts cannot get the
legislature and realize the fact they
will knife Foster openly, as they are
now doing secretly. The Republicans,
who are always good at keeping their
internal dissensions quiet, cannot hold
together in peace in the State much
longer. At least the private letters
they are writing here indicate such TO
be the fact.
The experts of Senator Bruce's
committee on the Freedman's Bank
have discovered that its managers were
at one time in what is known here as
the department shark" business.
The bank under the charter had no
right to loan money except on real
estate, and there was nothing to justi-
fy it in charging usurious interest.
Besides, the books do not show any
record of money thus received. That
this discount business was carried on
by the bank on an extensive scale
there is no doubt. Quite number OF
department clerks are willing to testi-
fy that they borrowed money from the
old bank on their monthly vouchers,
for which they had to pay two per
cent. per month. This business of
shaving clerks pay is carried on at
the present time quite extensively by
banks which are thought to be above
such practices. They have for their
agents clerks in the departments, who
keep the name of their bank secret.
There are several wealthy men in
Washington who began their career
as department sharks, and one of these
men is known to-day throughout the
country as the great philanthropist Of
the Capital City.
The case which was used at the
Paris Exposition for the exhibit Of
the agricultural department, has been
sent to this country and placed in the
beautiful grounds surrounding the
agricultural bureau. 1t is star
shaped, about forty feet in hight,
and the same in diameter. 1t is
made of wood and plate-glass, and is
highly ornamental.

SHORT CROPS ABROAD.

The prospects of the crop returns
of Great Britain are alarming, and
indicate a season Of great scarcity and
much suffering during the coming
winter. Iti estimated by the best
authorities on the subject that the
outcome Of all the grain crops this
season will fail a third below the Ordi-
nary average. 1t will require at least
125,0OO,0O0 bushels Of wheat to supply
the deficit of the home demand. The
loss on the wheat crop is estimated at
$125,O 100000, on the potato crop az
$5,OOO,OOO, and on beans, peas and
rye at $15, 100000.

THE Atlanta Dispatch says that
Major w. D. Day, of the house cleri-
cal force, and Senator Simmons, the
original counsel for Kate Sothern, will
appear before the joint penitentiary
committee early next week to plead
for her pardon. 1t is understood that
the object of these gentlemen is TO
interest the committee in Mrs. Soth-
ern's case, and through them urge the
executive to grant her liberty. The
unfortunate woman is confined at
present at Howard's camp, in Taylor
county. She is the only white woman
now confined in the States service,
her sister having served her time and
returned home.
