WASHINGTON, December 3.-First Comp
troller Durham has written a letter to
tiyHI 9enr1emHu uea.ins -A;a>- - aeeida at
what date he can commence drawing
salary as member of Congress to which
office he was elected in November last to
fill the unexpired term Of Mr.. Pulitzer, and
also to decide whether he is entitled to
draw that portion OF salary as Represen-
tative which had accrued prior to October
20 when his resignation as Minister OF
Turkey was accepted and to which time he
had drawn salary as such.
Judge Durham in his letter says: "Up
to October Goth you were entitled to and
were drawing but one salary. From that
date until you were elected to Congress
you had no office and consequently could
draw no salary. Under Section 81 of Re.
vised Statutes relating to pay OF Congress-
men elected to fill vacancies you
are entitled to draw your salary
as q member of Congress from the
time the salary OF your predecessor
ceased, which was some time previous to
the time to which you were paid your sal
ary as minister. While you are entitled to
draw your salary as @ member OF congress
for tie portion of time during which you
also drew salary as minister to Turkey you
were not holding two Offices at the same
time and drawing pay for both. which
would seem to be prohibited in Sec. 765,
Revised Statutes, but you are entitled to
draw such salary as q member OF congress
bv reason OF the manner of fixing the time
when the salary OF a member elected as
YOU have been, to fill a vacancy, shall COM
mence. Congress in it's discretion may fix
the time when an officer shall commence
drawing his salary, provided his predeces-
sor has ceased to draw the same and COR
gress has so provided in Section 5, you will
be entitled, after yo1 have been sworn into
office, to draw your salary as member from
the time when your predecessor ceased to
draw his salary.

CHICAGO, December 2.-The Inter Ocean

OF Theodore s. Mize, his confidential book
keeper and cashier and secretary of the
Chicago & Minonk coal and coke company.
who perpetrated robbery that is esti.
mated at 500, 900. and may sxceed that
Mize, who is one of the best.known men in
local business circles and member of the
Union Veteran Club and Apollo Club
had been in the employ of Ames since 1872.
Within couple OF years from the time he
entered Ames' employ he began system
attic robbery, covering up his dishonesty
by false entries and by other schemes. At
first his stealings were comparatively
small. but OF late years, it is rumored, his
speculations frequently reached thousands
OF dollars in month. About q week ago
Ames discovered something wrong with the
money account, and it is said he taxed
Mize with dishonesty. Mize confessed his
guilt and said he had been robbing his
for years. He begged for mercy
and promised restitution so far as lay in
his power. Since then all his property
which could be found, including fine house
has been turned over to Ames.

New YORK, December 3.--The arrest OF
the jury tamperer yesterday caused the
court room where the proceedings in the
trial of ex.AIderman McQuade are

dience. 1t was understood that Falken-
burg, who attempted to approach Gray.
would be arraigned before Recorder Smith
to-day on the charge of embracery, which
is the legal term for tampering with jury.
Shortly after the recorder took his seat,
an officer arraiened before him an under.
sized man wearing a black mustache and
hair. He said his name was Frank
Falkenberg. Lawyer Hummel stood
up and said he represented the prisoner.
Hummel said bis client was q tailor by
trade and 81 years OF age. He read writ
ten reply to the charge from his client. 1t
declared the accused to be innocent OF the
intention to commit the offense and said he
merely mentioned the case to Gray and
Hummel went on, II was about to add
that Gray introduced the subject himself. "
Falkenberg waived examination and was
held in 81, 900 bail for trial. He was al
lowed to remain iu the court room until
bail could be secnred. He was released
later in the day. McQuade's trial was then
resumed.

By One Who Knows. But tho Name
Given.
,PIrrsBURG, December 2.--In his recent
letter to the Boston Herald, Ex-Secretary
Chandler said: After the presidential elec.
tion the chairman of the National Commit.
tee was indiscreet enough in q published
interview to impute to President Arthur
and members OF his cabinet want OF fdel-
ity and zeal in the canvass. This charge was
baseless and was SO declared by me at the
time. All possible and appropriate assis-
tnuce was rendered. 1t should supsrcede
the chairman or do his work, although it
would have been better if some one had
done so.
The proprietor Of the Pittsburg CONNER.
cial Gazette called upon B. F. Jones. chair
man of the National Committee, and asked
him what he had to say in reply to this
paragraph. Jones said: 1.-The statements
were made by me in an interview with
Chandler, then considered it necessary
and proper to make, and now as then.
knew them to be true. The purport OF
these statements was that If Arthur and
his ca abinet, with few exceptions, had been
as loyal to Blaine as Blaine would have
been to Arthur had the latter been nom.
mated, Blaine would have been president.
So far as Chandler's reference to me
personally is codcerned, l do not feel
called upon to defend myself. 1 have no
taste for, nor do see any present reason
for discussion as no political methods
with one whose plans and proposals during
the brief intercourse had with him in the
campaign of 1884, were not such as to
commend him to those having the success
fv of Hf
criticisms at that time of men then most
prominent in the party do not seem to me
quite consistent with his present express
sions OF regret in regard to the bad feeling
between public men, would not like to
feel called upon to make public the facts
upon which my opinion OF Chandler is
based.

PUTNAM, December 3.-The " ilson-M Moen
affair has caused great excitement here
and the surrounding towns where Wilson
formerly lived. This afternoon a reporter
went to East Thompson and had an in
terview with Mrs. Lyman Porter, Wilson's
mother. She said emphatically that she
is Wilson's own mother and that Jonas
Wilson was his real father. She also said
that the record of Wilson's birth at Oxford
was correct. She thinks that Wilson is
not in his right mind. She does not know
of any mystery. She is 6S years of age
and broken down in health. Wilson is a
perfect picture of her face and especially
the nose, forehead and expression of the
eyes. She says he never saw or heard OF
Moen till of late years. Her husband is
shoemaker and is supported mainly by
Wilson. Mr.. Porter says his wife AYERS
that Wilson is her legitimate son.

WORCESTER. December 3.-The record O
the town of Oxford, Massachusetts,, show
that Levi Wilson was born there Decem-
ber l., 1853, eleven months after Mrs.
Moen died.
PROVIDENCE, R. l., December ga repor-
ter Of the Journal this morning inter-
viewed Mrs. George M. Rice. of Bridge, who
has always been considered the sister OF
'Doc." Wilson. To a query if Wilson, g
story was true she returned an evasive
answer. She would not deny that Wilson
told an untruth when he said she was not
his sister, nor would she contradict him
in the slightest particular, but gave most
unsatisfactory and evasive replies.
NOTHING COULD PIN HER DOWN
to single yes or n" on any point except
ing one and that was that Wilson had
gixen her great deal of money first aud
last, and from what he said she deemed he
thought it best she should talk about bis
affRi1exS he.rememherad- her father,a ILL.,

died. All efforts to extract more
from her were in vain. All she would ad-

church member; that after he was taken
ill he often spoke to them on the subject OF
doing right, and that Levi Wilson supplied
her with money. The Journal reporter
saw Mrs. Young, another sister of Levi
Wilson, at Putnam, Connecticut, this al
ternoon. She stated that Levi was the
son OF Jonas Wilson, and that her aunt
was present at the time of his birth. He
was named after her first husband, whose
name was Levi Fessenden, and her father
and mother knew nothing about Moen for
years after that.
WHAT WILSON'S COUNSEL SAYS.
George s. Hobbs, of Bridge, at one time
counsel for Levi Wilson, has been placed
in rather an unpleasant position by the
latter's statement. Wilson asserted that
Hobbs had papers in his safe which would
send Moen behind the bars as a convict,
and that he was the custodian of the COM
munications from Moen to Wilson in which
the former addressed him as Dear Son."
Mr.. Hobbs was asked tonight what de-
pendence could be placed on Wilson's
story concerning the letters and papers in
his safe. He said: II emphatically deny
the whole thing from beginning to end. 1t
BILE lies told by Levi Wilson. The only
documents have held or now hold with
his name upon them consist OF deeds Of
property, and in which transactions l
acted as attorney. Wilson is an inveter-
ate liar"
"What credence do you place in Wilson's
disclosure?"
'.It is like all the rest of his stories"
