WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE treasury de-

both in New York and Washington, of
117th Gall bonds without rebate of inter-
est, but the owners, while receiving full in
terest to Dec. %, will be required to de-
post sum equal to three months inter-
est from Aug. 1, 1882, to Nov. 1, 1882. A
check for this three months interest will
be forwarded by the United States treasur-
er to registered owners of bonds on the
first of November, in the usual manner
The effect is, of course, to pay now to
holders of called bonds, interest from
Nov. to Dec. %, the three months inter-
est due Nov. 1, being paid on that date.
| The treasury department to-day pur-
chased $4,000 ounces of silver for the
New Orleans, San Francisco and Phila-

The commissioner &C the land Office in
his annual report states the land now en-
! braced within the limits of the public
domain amounts to 9OO,0OO,OOO acres, in
Guiding Alaska. He recommends thst the
pre- emption laws be abolished, as the.
homestead laws cover all cases now arising.
Public sales of lands the past
year amounted to 1888 acres,
embracing 5,O16 acres near
Toledo, Ohio, which were sold for
$16,735, an average of 1888 per acre.
Respecting future railroad grants the COM
missioner says the status of the various
grants for railroad purposes were where
roads have not been constructed within the
time prescribed bylaw and was reported O.

Legislative action touching the renewal of
these grants or declaring forfeiture there
of, seriously embarrassed the work of this
Office. It is not deemed expedient to
certify additional lands to railroad COM
panies nor to award to companies lands
in dispute between them and settlers
or other claimants pending determine
ton by congress in the premises. Large
numbers of settlers are occupying such
lands, and it is important to them to know
whether they can receive their letters from

mits estimates for saleries andIcontingent

Ohio and MississipDi,

CINCINNATI, Oct. 1.-THE annual meet
ing of the stockholders of the Ohio & Mis-
sissippi railway was held here to-day for
the purpose Of electing their directors.
There was no opposition to the following,
who were elected: Vim. T. McClintock,
Chillicothe, O.; John NJ. Douglass, Chica-
go; Chas. E. Beecher, Cincinnati. Presi-
dent McClintock submitted his annual re-
port, briefly reviewing the action in refer
ence to the reorganization. He stated that
Q committee appointed at the last meeting
to arrange the details had prepared draft
of the scheme, and had submitted it to the
committee of London stockholders
for conference and as a result the board
in January, 1882, determined to borrow
$16,OOO,O0O by the issue of first
general mortgage 5 per cent. coupon bonds.
The greater part of the money so raised to
be applied to funding at lower interest the
present Indebtedness as it falls due, and
the residue to be applied to the payment of
arrearages of interest, adding to equip
ment, etc. This action was approved at a
stockholders meeting April 6, 1882, at
Flora, ILL.,. by large majority, but the
actual issue Of stock and execution of
mortgage was deferred until after the
present meeting. The company is now
roady to take this step, and it will remain
for the board now elected to determine the
time aud manner of issuing bonds and
placing them on the market.
The president goes on to say that this
delay was wise, inasmuch as the net earn
ings for 1881 were $4,000 less than an
ticipated, and the depression in traffic con-
tinued till June 80, 1882, so that the net
earnings for the year ending June 30, 1882,
were $844, 612 as compared with $1,118,-
626 the previous year, but with good
wheat crop the receipts grew, and July
showed sos, 283 as against $58, 1888 in
June, and August $165,s45 as against
$102,238 in August last year. The con-
dition indicates that the year ending
June 80, 1883, will show larger net
earnings than any preceding year. The
president says that in view of all the cir
cumstances the board see no reason why
the stockholders may not look hopefully
to an early release of their property from
the custody of the courts, and for its as
sured future prosperity. The report of
earnings and expenses for the year end
ing Dec. 81, 1881, shows the main line and
Louisville branch earnings. $685. 13;
expenses, $2,571 ,6s3; Springfield division

tai earnings, $4,074, 407; expenses, $3,11E,-

quorum no action was taken to-day on the
insurance bonds. Gross earnings for the
