A Washington special says: Definite
information from General Grants party
is to- the effect that he will take the
last steamer in June from Japan, which
will bring himsto San Francisco not far
from the lst of August. After looking
around California, the General has de-
cided to spend some time about Oregon
and at various posts in that region
where he was stationed in: his earlier
days. As has been already reported,
he is also very DESTROYS of making an
extended tour in Mexico.
A New York paper publishing the
quotations of mining stocks in that city
says: "The notable feature of the
week is the still increasing volume of
business, coupled with the throngs of
people who now assist in the "calls' of
the Exchange, and who continue. deal
ing in the intervals between calls with
undiminished activity. People here
begin to understand the field for profit
in mining enterprise, and We shall be
greatly surprised as large business is
not developed here in mining stocks as
eve characterized San Fsaneisco."
A most peculiar and distressing case
of dishonesty i'll an employee came to
light in the Chicago Criminal Court,
Saturday. Edwin Harris, former book
keeper of the wholesale boot and shoe
firm of Voc Brothers, later known as
McCauley, Dixie & Co., was indicted
for abstracting funds Of the firm. He
was arraigned, and pleaded guilty Sat
urday, aud was sentenced to seven years
in the Penitentiary:t Harrfs confessed
the theft, stating that his ungovernable
desire to become rich was the motive,
and that from 1871, when he was en-
ployed, to 1874, when the firm was
driven into bankruptcy by his methods,
he had taken from $4,000 to $l5,-
600, all of which he had invested
in bonds, real estate and in the
business of his former employers
whom he bought cut with the. fands
stolen from them. 1t was only a few
days ago that the bankrupts, in over
hauling their accounts, came across some
little discrepancies, and when asked to
explain them, Harris made a full con-
fession. He is overwhelmed with o
sense OF Ais disgrace, and pleaded To- be
sent Immediately to Joliet. He has
wife and mother.
