to the s203O expended on John Mahoney's

THIEVES IN WASHINGTON.
Two Men Arrested at the Instance Of
he Sec. Of the Treasury for Stealing
Bond Plates from Printing Once.

WASHINGTON, Oct 8.
VIM. F. Salter and Wilmot H. Ward OF
tbia civ we're arrested at the instance OF the
secretarv of the treasury, at q late hour last
night. aud committed to Jail. upon the charge
of being engaged in q conspiracy to steal
bonds and plates from the bureau Of engrav-
ing and printing. and attempting to orioe the
EMPLOYEES of the bureau to assist them therein.
Some private correspondence OF Col. lrisn'
chief Of the bureau of engraving and print
ing which had been placed in box IN MS
private Office for safe keeping. was dlscov-
cred some time las. spring to have been
stolen. He was notified by ANONYMOUS cor
RESPONDENTS that these letters were being
used to injure the friendly relations existing
between him and President Arthur. In IN
yestigating the disappearance of these letters
Col. Irish came upon clues which led to the
discovery of a conspiracy to corrupt ana
bribe the employees of the bureau and with
their aid stea' quantity Of bonds and plates.
The matter was laid before Secretary Folger
and an investigation. by the secrat service
division, resulted in the arrest, last night, OF
Salter and Ward 1t appears from the re-
searches of the detective that the object OF
the conspirators, in endeavoring to get bonds
and plates from the bureau was not direct
pecuniary gam, since thev had no intention
of using them in counterfeiting. Their aim
rather, as stated by themselves, was to bring
about the removal of the present chief OF the
bureau oy causing it to appear that his man
sgement was loose and inefficient as to make
the theft of the bonds and plates compsra-
lively easy matter. and so careless as to de-
stroy public confidence in the integrity OF
the government securities. Salter, it is said,
represented to the dissatisfied employees OF
the bureau, whom he attempted to bribe,
that he was acting in the interest of Benz. l..
Berry. prominent politician of Pennsyl-
vania, who was supported by Senator Cam
eron and the Penn. delegation as candidate
for Col Irishs position. and who, he said,
would certainly get the place if he could be
ousted. In that event he, Salter, would be
assistant chief OF the bureau, and he would
reward with promotions the men who assist
ed him to bring about the removal of Col.
Irish. Ward was at one time an employee
himself, but was discharged by Col. Irish
about year ago. The two men will have a
preliminary examination tomorrow. The
proof against them said to be full and con-
elusive.

The statistics of crime in Ireland. as
prepared by DR.. Hancock. show that there
has been very great increase since 1876
in the number of murders and attempts at
murder. In that year, measured by the
extent of population. serious offences stood
III per 10000. The percentage contin-
ued to grow until in 1881 it had reached
23.2 per 10000. As if anticipating the
swept over the island under the guidance
of the Land League, the list of murders,
attempts to murder. aud attacks upon
property began to be formidable even be-
fore the plan of the League had passed
through the preliminary stage of the in
cubating process. In 1881. when DR..
Hancock had completed his work. crisis
had been reached, and the comparison in
proportion to population then showed 10
murders in Ireland to II in England.
There were 267 attempts 10 murder a.
compared with l47 in England. DR.. Han
cock has been remarkable Tor the care
and freedom from bias with which he has
for many Years dealt with the statistics OF
crime. and there is good reason to believe
that his estimates have been prepared
from the degrees of criminalitv in the two
countries. 1t is a significant fact, how
ever, and one which will surprise great
many persons, that in the number of out
RACES on dumb animals Ireland. during
the time mentioned, makes a mere favor
able showing than England. There is
another feature of DIR, Hancock $ report
which also deserves special mention. Il
takes account of the crimes against mo-
rality. In spite of the incentives which
might be expected from the nature of The
struggle going on in the country. il APP
pears that in proportion to the population
of Ireland and England. the former had
l1S crimes against morality and the latter
1S6. The natural deduction. therefore. is
that with the thorough operation of the
Land act. in the matter of crime Ireland
will take rank among the most favored
portions OF the world.

Discussion Of the Irlsh Question.

LONDON, Oct 7.
Professor Goodwin Smith. replying to Z.
L. G0dkin, who had written an article in the
Spectator, critizing Prof. Smiths views of
the Irish question from professedly Amer
ican point Of view, writes that he advocated
measures Of repression, not because OF any
hostility to the Irish, but because the Par
nellites abused their privileges as members
OF Parliament, for the purpose of wrecking
Parliamentary government in the interest of
disunion. There is no doubt, says Prof.
Smith, that if party Of Southern members
of Congress has similarly endeavored to
wreck the American Legislature they would
have been put down with As little compunc-
tion as was shown in suppressing the Irish
in the draft riots in New York. 1t seems to
be forgotten. he adds, that in the agrarian
reign of terror, the murdered, as well as the
murderers, are Irish, while the chief authors
of the system are New York fenians, and
their organ. the Irish World, is the property
of Jew. Godkin. himself. he says, is not =
natural American, but An Irish nationalist.
