Moore and Clark

At the Treasury Department yesterday
there was no disposition to talk upon rhe subject
of the removals of Moore and Clark, Us the Secre-
tary had concluded to keep the matter quiet, but
it was developed that the facts telegraphed last
night constituted the full details of the affair.
The transaction spoken of occurred over three
years ago, but has just come to light. No more re-
movas will be made, as the only responsibility lay
with the two men whose designations have Just
been demanded. 1t could not be ascertained at
the Navy Department yesterday whether cog
nizauce would be taken of Stevenson's share in
the transaction not but it is inferred from what
was said Eiat some investigation would be en-
tered into. The Treasury authorities do not think
there was any corrupt motive on the part of Clark
and Moore in the transaction, but simply desire
to accommodate the paymaster i'll he settlement
of his accounts.
