WHAT DOES TT MEANp--Thss New

Washington, dated June u, that refers
70 John Sherman, ex,Secretary Of, the
Treasury, in very serious Language.
II ipsinuates very clearly that all Is
not az it.should be with the ex- Secre-
tary, and that the present Secretary,
Mr.. Window, is "'Sherman's Boy"

from supposed Irregularities j but

things that possibly may come-and

Some persons have wondered that
MacVeash has not taken hold Of the in

not lime yet. Besides, his hands are
full OF the Star frauds. What he doesn't
make there he will undertake TO make
up in the Treasury. A vote OF Co ngress
will come TO Ills relief there, and let
John Sherman know to- day that Wayne
MacVeash will soon enough be on his
track. To-day it is Brady. To-mor-
