WASHINGTON, Aprii 1O.-SenatOr Bell, of New

senseless debates which have occurred in Congress

Eminent lawyers who took part in it admitted

TO result from all the talk. and that the result,
whatever it might be- would furnish no
precedent for future case into which
political considerations should enter. Sena-

afternoon, and made short work of the curious
quibbles which Senatorial ingenuity had been pill

Mr. Gushsie's Do.sls Entry sys-

ten.
While the Gssetts has been prais-
ing every thing bsd and good that the
Democrats have done In and out Of
Council, IL should give Mr.. Guthrie due
credit for his latest discovery of new
system Of double entry book keeping.
1t has the advantage over al other sys-
tens Of having two credit columns. One
column Is oficislly made up BY the City
Treasurer, certified under oath by the
City Auditor, and approved and presen-
ted to Council by the Chairman Of the
Finance Committee, who appears to be
Mr.. Guthrie. The other column is only
used upon election occasions, and is
made up Of terms paid and unpaid in
dependent and separate from the cur
rent expense report and can be added
to the first column in hard political
pinches. These double columns made
into one is what the Gazette and
" Herald swear by, and say is cor
rect, because Mr.. Guthrie is a Demo-
cratic candidate and must be elected.
This shiftls-shuffle, sliding scale system
of double entry that Mr.. Guthrie has
found out and introduced into city f.
nances is very conveniently changed
from double to single entry to suit any
circumstance or any occasion. For in
stance by the single entry plan which
is correct, it is shown that on clean
sheet the city will start by the first Of
September with $4,000 to its credit,
but by an application Of Mr.. Guthrie's
new double entry invention this amount
is swellsd to sl2S, 900. The invention
of plan Of book keeping that harmon
ICES this little difference Of $50, 900 and
that enables Mr.. Guthrie to certify that
both are correct, is an important one
and reflects great credit upon the inven-
tor. 1t is very doubtfal however
whether the citizens Of Wilmington will
appreciate this new double entry in
vention 30 much AZ to make the inven-
tor City Treasurer. Republics it is
said always were ungrateful, and a. .

been paid yet, and 50 it is recalled and
placed to Mr.. Guthrie's credit column
to help him out OF scraps. No doubt
many other payments have been made
that might have been postponed until
after the first Of September, and Mr.. g.
might as we'll have had the benefit Of
them all and have just counted the
amount as being in bank instead OF
having been paid out. By this means
Mr.. Guthrie's showing for himselfmight
have been made much more favorable.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Guthrie's as
sertjons to the contrary We must in
sist that his supplemental report
will bear eliminating as Senator
Salisbury would say, and We propose
to do it taking $l2s, ,467.99, the amount
that Mr.. G. claims is in the bank to the
credit of the city as basis from which
to commence our elimination.
First then, we must insist that the
81, ,250.50 paid to fire company must
be Topped off because it is not in bank.
This leaves 1927, ,2l7.49.
Secondly we must insist that the sl,-
900 in the hands of the collectors must
not be counted, because it cannot be in
bank and in the hands of the collectors
at the same time. This reduces the
amount to Sl26,2l7.49.
Thirdly, We must insist that the $2O,
900 that Mr.. Guthrie claims is in bank
to the Board of Education, canno: be
and is not in bank and therefore 1t
must bs eliminated from the total, leav.
ing but $lO6, 6,2l7.39. This it will be
perceived is the amount reported by
City Treasurer on Thursday night as
being in bank to the credit Of the city
and to. the Board OF Education, and Mr..
Guthrie gave that report his sanction
and presented it TO Council as Chair
man Of the Finance Committee.
But as Mr.. Guthrie has proposed to
leave Council with q clean sheet on tn q
first of September with ali debts paid
off and $l2O, 900 in bank ON which to
run the city up to April We propose to
eliminate still farther, to show that
he has been most terribly deceived.
First then, there were orders drawn
amounting to 1900 which have not
been paid yet. This will make still
farther reduction Of the total to t94,-
III, 40. From this must still be de-
Quoted theC Councilmen's salaries, o sewer
bill and other incidentals for which or
ders will be drawn next Monday night
which will still farther eliminate the
total down to 100000.
Then there is the Latimer Trust Fund
Of $4,000, the amount Of $1,000 due
on J. K. Burnite's note and not yet
paid with other unpaid obligations
amounting in all to about $l2, 900 which
must De deducted from the total and
then there will be about SIS, 900 left on
the first Of September inste ad Of sl2s,-
900 as Mr.. Guthrie claims.

the happy couple received their
friends at the brides residence, in
the Winter House, in this city, and at

which all hands returned to the par

in listening to vocal and instrumental
music, by the accomplished bride,
her amiable daughter, and by some
