accident, and endured painful infamma,ory

WISCONSIN,.


NEW York. September C. A Herald
special dated Milwaukee says information Of
a somewhat startling nature comes from the
Milwaukee branch of the National Soldiers
Home. The institution is ont of funds and
has been running large bills for meat, -four,
groceries, ETC., among the local business
men. This stringency is the out-grow tn of n
clash between Gen. Butler and the Treasury
department at Washington. Although he
was deposed from the craftsmanship of the
National board some time ago he had been
allowed to act as treasurer, but government
employees in the Treasury refuse to recog-
nize his authority 10 draw money appropriated
for the maintenance of the home. and the
stringency therefore will not be released
u It'll after the October meeting of the
National board, when the entire business will
be taken from Buffers hands.
4Very sensational accounts are given of his
financiering in this relation and the public
here are much stirred up about it. II is
charged that for the fifteen years Butler has
been treasurer of the Home funds, he has
had sums varying from half million TO a
million and half on his hands all the time,
interest on which has never been accounted
for 1t is further alleged his clothing con-
tracts are specimens of iobbery So tar the
investigations begun against him have not
been completed, and they are expected to
continue. There is demand of thorough
exposition of his accounts.
His political enemies say he is now trying
to make himself useful to the democratic
party with the hope of being whitewashed
when the overhauling takes place.
For the year 1871, which was during the
first investigation, Butler is said to have
failed TO make any tangible report Of the
home finances. When the details have been
demanded it is said he claimed they were in
tine same book as his private accounts, and
no one had any right to examine them.
