made previously By the party had been faith

The convention reassembled shortly after

Tho Secret of the Alleged Movement in
Europe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. IA banker, who pre-
tends to know the secret of the Confederate
bond movement in Europe, says that it ia this
The reports of the treasury agents of the
United States some time after the close OF the
rebellion showed that there were deposited in
the Bank of England, in banks in France
Holland and Belgium, money aggregatilg
$1l 100000 belonging to the Confederate Gov
ernment, the proceeds Of the sale of cotton.
Thia money was pledged to pay the interest on
the Confeds rate loan. The January interest
of 1865 was paid, and money was set apart to
pay the coupons for the July interest when The
rebellion collapsed. The European syndicate
OF bankers is eeking to obtain all the Confed-
crate bonIs Tor the purpose only OF collecting
the July. 1865, coupons with the accumulating
interest resulting from noD-payment. The
talk about attempting 10 boycott the Southern
States, or to collect the principal Of the bonds,
or any interest coupons after that month, July,
1866 is nonsense, but the syndicate has good
legal advice that the money set apart for a
specific purpose, namely the payment of the
July coupons, must be paid ON the presenta-
tion OF that coupon, and If you will inquire
you will observe that all the orders to brokers
to purchase the Confederate bonds specify that
they must contain the fully coupons and must
not be mutilated. A bond presented without
the July coupon would not be purchased and
that is all there is in the Confederate bond
story. The European syndicate intend to se-
cure, If it can, these eleven millions of dollars,
money the credit of the Confederate State
Government in European banks, and ii pro-
poses to do this in the only way that it possibly
can, il it can do it in that way, by presenting
these coupons for payment. If the syndicate
does not succeed the European banks will be
$11000,000 ahead, as there is no doubt that
that amount of cash to the credit of the Con-
federste States is deposited there. 1t is a fact
that the report presented to the Treasury De-
partment some time after the wsr as to the
Confederate assets in Europe contained the
item of $11, 100000 cash."

Importation OF Cattle.
The Secretary of the Treasury gives public
notice that he has officially determined that
the importation of neat cattle subject to con-
ditons hereinafter prescribed does not tend to
the introduction or spread of contagious or in
fictitious diseases among cattle of the United
States. The operation of sections of law pro-
hibiting the importation of neat cattle and
hides of neat cattle into the United States are
therefore suspended, but upon condition that
importers and owners of neat cattle shall sub
NIT to and abide by such orders and regula-
tions as the Secretary of the Treasury has
prescribed or may from time to prescribe to
carry the laws into OBJECT.
All neat cattle arriving in the United States
from any part of the world except North or
South America will be subjected to quarantine
of so days counting from the date of shipment.
As the Dominion of Canada maintains q
quarantine for all imported cattle no quaran-
tine for cattle imported from Canada is pro-
vided. Fer general information it is deemed
proper to state that permanent arrangements
have been completed for quarantine accommo-
dation of imported neat cattle.

STILL NO CHOICE.
Starting a Boom for Col. A. F. Howard.
CONCORD, N. H, Aug. 1.-The 39th ballot
or United States Senator resulted as follows:

Pike gained over yesterday, Burns 10 and
Marston 3 Chandler lost 9, Tsppan 5.
There were many absentees to-day, one less
than onITuesday. The ballot showed no sig
nificant features, and it was not expected it
would. Pixies SO was a gain of only nine,
which demonstrates to his friends that this
boom cannot gain much more as things now
look. Pixies supporters put in their best work
last night and predicted this morning that he
would reach los. Pixies friends, as would be
expected, are greatly disappointed, but do not
yet give up all hope. Burns gain of nine,
carrying him to 40, evidently means some
thing. This boom, as stated by Gen. Burns
himself, is to be an entirely voluntary one, and
he also further says that, although he would
like the election, he is not working foI it, nor
has he any persons engaged to manage the
movement for him. Burns has got three of
the Concord delegation to-day Gallinger of
Concord gained two, having eight, and there
is no doubt now but that he is in regular tram
ing to be put on the track in earnest when the
opportune time arrives. Twelve voted for
Chandler, being n remnant of his faithful fol-
lowers, who still believe that the Secretary will
finally win. Smith, of Mortified voted again
for Hon. Charles E. Tilton, claiming that he
(Tilton) is a Republican. There is no excite
ment to-day over the situation.
WASHINGTON, Aug. IA prominent Treas
ury officer to-day received a telegram from

ceasing efforts in the direction of this most
necessary reform.

THE HILL INVESTIGATION.

The Testimony About Concluded and
the Case to Close To-Day.
WASHINGTON, Aug 1.--When the Hill in
vestigating committee met this morning Totten
put in evidence letter written by Secretary
Sherman to the Collector of Customs at Chi
oago in 1879 in relation to renewing the lease
Of the Arcade building, and letter from Arch
itect Hill to Mcdowell, superintendent of the
Chicago custom house in 1876, and also the

amined by Coleman in regard to elevators.
Nj. N. Malone, superintendent of public
buildings at Pittsburg, Pa, was called by Mr..
Totten and tes titled to erecent conversation
held with Steinmentz at Pttsburg in which he
remarked that he was party to the investga-
tion and that it was the architect, assistant
architect and chief computor he was after, that
Hill had treated him in famously and he meant
to get even with him. Thompson, chief COM
putor, was present during the conversation and
took part in 1t. On cross-examination witness
said the conversation took place in a restau-
rant.
Charles p. Morton. inspector of heating ap-
peratuS at chicago, testlned that square head
ed bolts had been used instead of hexagonsl
and that short coils were used on account Of a
lack of space to use larger ones. Only "a tubes
we're used in the boilers because there was not
room for more.
Steinmetz was recalled by Coleman and tes-
titled in regard to the statement made by Ma
lone as to his intention to "clean OUT the sup
ervising architects Office. He said that he
did say to Thompson they ought 10 clean Out. a
department which did not do its business
properly and didn't keep the records of its
transactions when the officers were paid high
salaries for that purpose. He made no threats
against anybody and had simply criticized the
manner in which the records in the supervis-
ing architects Office were kept
Zegler, a machnist in the employ OF Bart
lett, Haywood & Co., was examined by Totten
in regard to the heating apparatus at the Chi
cago custom house. He was foreman Ct their
work on that building. Changes made in the
work In the building were made by him upon
