| New YORK. January 5th.-A Washington
special to an evening paper says: In few
days the Central Pacific Railroad will be a
bonded carrier under Aldrich's immediate
transportation BILL The application was re-
ceived in due form and the bond sent to San
Francisco for execution. When it is approved
| there will be opened for the first time means
for direct transportation under the bill from
the Pacific coast to Chicago and the East.
Goods could go from the East to the Pacific
coast BEFORE being carried by this Merchants
Dispatch line, one of the first to bond under
| the Aldrich bill but there has been no way
to impors silks or other goods from China,
Japan, India or Australia upon which the
duty must be paid, by way of San Francisco
up to this time, except by the old way Of APP
praisement and collection of duties at the
port of first arrival, which is very unsatis-
factory to American merchants, in COMPARE
son with the convenience of doing business
under the immediate transportation bill.

forgeries, evidently gotten up to play their
part in this case. When she spoke of the

read them. The letters sent to Giro she
now says, were in a different view-not SO
gushing, though imprudent enough for her
to write. When in New York she
hastily glanced at the headings of
some of them. She further said
there was "a common sense side to
her statement, viz, that her mother, brother
and Miss Meloy state that she was not

ARRIVAL OF THE CHINESE TREATY
WASHINGTON, January 5h.-Coumissioner
| Prescott arrived at Washington this after
noon and delivered the Chinese emigration
treaty to the State Department, from whose
possession IL will be transferred TO the Senate
by the President within the next few days,
probably Friday. There is no doubt of its
prompt ratification. The commercial treaty,
it is understood, will be brought on by Com
missioner Swift. Mr.. Prescott maintains the
same diplomatic reticence that he manifested
in San Francisco, and courteously declines
saying anythingsin regard TO either treaty.

mer.
Blaine to-day said he did not believe IL pos.
sible for the Secretary Of the Treasury to
place a per cent. loan. HIS own Idea was
to authoriza $500, COO 900 of per cents. at
II or over. This would enable the Secretary
to almost wipe out the $3.50 coo, 600 falling
due next year, and reduce the total debt
$50 600 900. He did not know that he should
draw bill to cover this ground, but the idea
had been discussed and generally approved
by his friends.
The nomination of General Miller by the
Republican caucus of the California Legisla-
ture gives general satisfaction to the stalwa1t
Republicans.
