| Special Dispatch to the Re;kter.
WASHINGTON, December 3.
The Panama Canal subs, riptlons
promise to be very large in Europe,
cable advlces to-day reporting that a pre-
MUM OF % francs was bid for full allot-
ments, the impression on the other side
being that the subscriptions are already
coming in, and there is every indication
that large amount will be taken in the
United States. The canal, it is held,
will bear the same important relation to
American commerce that the Suez canal
does to that OF Europe, and it is calcula-
ted that OF the money to be expended
in its construction at least $50, ,0OO,O 600
will be spent in this country for ma
chinery, for food for the army OF labor
ers to be employed, and for other pur-
poses.
Quite struggle is in progress for the
House Postmastership. All the gentle
men interested in the effort for this hon
orable position are OF excellent standing
and general popularity. Col. George Z.
Wpdderburn, OF the Gazette; Judge Now
land: sam Z. Wins, OF Tennessee, and
Silss Carr, of Missouri, are associate am
bitionists for the position.
The New Funding Schemes
Mr. Fernando Wood will soon try to
take from the House calendar the bill
presented BY HIM last session for re-
funding the bonds which will mature
July next. They amount approximate
ly u 500 100000. Mr.. Woods bill, in
its original form, contemplated REFUND
ing in three and half per cent. bonds,
and his personal belief when it was of,
iercd was that, while such bond could
be placed, he was perhaps taking
more advanced position than
Congress would sustain. Indeed, hc
now cOniesses to having been often in
doubt about the possibility OF carrying
hIs plan successfully through Congress
The past year has not only removed all
such doubts from his mind, but he re-
turns convinced that a three per cent.
bond would float. He says it is time
the Government ceased Ia humiliate
i,seliby catering to the exactions OF leu
dcrs, and that il should declare decisive
~ its borrowing terms. irrespective of
everything except its own interest. The
Governments bonds, he thinks, would
be taken ut almost any rate OF interest,
because the Government has always
been very punctilious in meeting its oh.
legations and has the confidence Of in-
yestors, 80 he will advocate three per
cent. bond, and, as he saws. with much
more confidence than he advocated last |
year one for three and hall per cent.
