WASHINGTON, June 29.-The following is
the text Of the letter of Burchard, declin-
ing to resign when requested to do 30 by
Secretary Manning:
Sir: Respectfully acknowledging your
request for my resignation, communicated
to me on the the 18th instant, 1 have the
honor to state that after q careful consid-
GRAFTON I an not satisfied that duty or
propriety require me at this time to resign
my Office. Were any mslfeasance or mis-
conduct alleged or believed to exist, I am
sure you would have done me justice to
have had an impartial examination, and
given me a full opportunity of defense be-
fore demanding my resignation; nor do l
understand from you that the request is
made for such reason, but it ia because you
deem the relations OF my Office to be 80 in
timately connected with your administra-
ton Of the Treasury Department that you
should have the privilege of select
ing the officers to be in charge
Of this bureau. Were this the case
and the intention of the law it might be
proper and becoming for me to place the
tenure Of my service at your immediate
command, or perhaps to have done 80
when you became the head of the Depart
ment, but permit me to say that such has
not been my understanding OF the pur-
pose of the Coinage Act in providing that
the Director of the Mint shall hold his
Office for the term Of i've years, unless
sooner removed by the President upon
L rnan~~n A. - l.. H. a. A.
Senate. The term Of five years and the
conditions upon which the removal is
authorized, and the discussions and ex-
plantations preceding the passage of the
Act, indicate the intent that the Office OF
Director of the Mint should not be
changed on account of a change Of
Administration or in the head Of
the Department, or for personal or
political reasons. My predecessor sp-
pointed by President Grant, although Of
opposite politics. continued in Office under
five successive Secretaries of the Treasury
until his death. As to myself, having
served with acceptance for the full term,
and upon reappointment and confirmation
part of another, l am conscious Of no rea-
son why an exception to policy Of laws
should now be made, or why I ought not
to continue in the performance of my off :
cial duty until the expiration Of my COM
mission. Very respectfully,
HoRATIo G. BURcHARD.
To Hon. Daniel Manning, Secretary Of
the Treasury.
A Riot I'm Toledo.
TOLEDO, June 29.-For a long time
there has been serious trouble in the
Polish Catholic Church here between the
priest and his followers, and the faction
who were opposed to him. Over q year
ago, in a row growing out of this trouble,
one man was killed, and a failure to con-
vict the parties guilty Of the offense stimu-
lated the opposition, which has been
increasing in ferocity. A few days ago an
attempt was made to blow up the church
with dynamite. This afternoon the trouble
eliminated in a general riot, in which
firearms and all manner of weapons were
used. Two men were killed, and several
injured, while quite a number OF houses
were partially or entirely destroyed. The
police have made a large number OF ar
rests, and an extra force is stationed on
the grounds to prevent another outbreak.
LATER-Up to 8 o'clock P. NJ. to-
day "a men and five women nave been
placed under arrest for completely in the

several of these were slightly wounded,
bearing cuts, bruises or broken fingers.
The parties directly implicated In yester.
days murders are doubtful. Many are
already in custody, although not yet iden-
fed. Other arrests will follow until all
the suspected persons have been secured.
No further disturbances have taken place.
The pastor of the Polish Church publishes
q statement, in which he attributes the
whole difficulty to a bitter hostility long
entertained towards him and his work by
q vicious and criminal element Of his
parish, whose acts have been severely de-
nounced by him. A portion of his people
supported and defended him most zeal
ously. and his determination to relinauish
the charge, the announcement Of which
was made yesterday, precipitated q con-
fiict between the factions.
Twelve Men LynchedI
GAINESVILLE. Texas, June 29.-Yester-
day the lynching Of five horse thieves is
reported in addition TO the recent report
that fifteen men had been hanged In two
weeks. Efforts TO s~ubstantiate the last
mentioned report resulted In the positive
proof of the hanging q week ago near Gal.

and a boy named Moore. Bill williams, a
farmer, living near Mud Greek. was sus-
pected, and persons we're detained to watch
him. When it was learned Williams had
unlawfully taken possession of another

visited his house and arrested him. Will.

Williams was then led several miles away
into some woods, where they were sent by

Morgan and q boy named Moore. By a
vote the men decided 10 hang
