WASHINGTON, D. o., Jan. ls.-To,day
the Secretary Of the Treasury sent to Sen.
Ator Morrill,, Chairman OF the Finance
Committee, q Communication acknowl.
edging the receipt of his letter requesting
the reasons" for the suspension OF Cer-
tain Collector Of Internal Revenue and
the appointment Of another in his place.
This is supposed to be- the West Virginia
case. In the letter referred TO, Secretary
Manning says; "As yeti havenot received
any directions from the President in rsla.

nation called for"
Senator Kenna had consultation with
Senator Morrill, this morning on the floor
Of the Senate, Mr.. Morrill, uaId the Nc.
Graw case had not yet been considered
by his committee, nor had 1t yet been
referred to q subcommittee. The same
is true Of other West Virginia nomina.

Rtor thGt when AicGraW's nomination is
reached he desires to 90 before the com.
mittee and be heard concerning the case,
In nview Of 80 much having been said
about McCormick's soldier service, MIR,
Kenna says he intends to submit the
records 10 the committee. Mr., Morrill,
expressed much amusement when told
that MCOOrIniCk's army service was In the
capacity Of hter for nine months, and that
he allowed but the space OF few weeks
to intervene between his discharge and
application for pension in 1862. A mem.
ber Of the Finance Committee said: "Mc.
Cormick's statements regarding his mill.
tary record do not correspond with hia
papers In the Pension office. In the
chicago convention In 1880 he said: 4
enlisted In the war In Indiana in 1861 and
served two long years."
1.-THE pension record shows he served
nine months. The length OF his service
Of course is not material, but the fact that

Pa, special says; The safe in County
Treasurer Hartman's Office was blown

The notes were the personal property Of

had all been recorded by the Treasurer
they are worthless, The thieves gained

shutters from their fastenings.
The explosion shattered the doors OF
the safe and shook all the houses in the
neighborhood, but some time elapsed be.

in the meanwhile the safe breakers sa.

Plrrspuron, Pa, Jan. 1S.-In the United
States Court to-day Judge Acheson
handed down an opinion in the case Of
the Pittaburgh & Lake Erie Railroad.
The suit grew out Of opposition to the 10.

Beaver, Pa, and demand that the Com.
pany should extend dyke for ZOO feat.
The Company claimed that the bridge had
been located by Government enrlneers
and approved BY the Secretary Of War.
Judge Acheson held that the Secretary Of
War had exhausted his authority in the
approval Of plans and specifications, and
had no further power in the matter. No
formal order was to be made until the
Government officers were heard from.
The case involves about 100000 10 the

TowBoAT k1PLosIoN,
The MOdOo Blown up-oRs Nan Killed and
Another Fatally Injured,


PITTsBuRGH, Pa, Jan. ls.-Ths steam'
boat ModoC blew up this morning in the
Allegheny river below Sixteenth street,
The explosion shook the houses along the
river bank. The fireman was seen to fall,
struck down by a flying piece Of the pilot
house, The air was full OF flying debris,
1t covered the barges for a distance OF 800
yards below, Pieces OF the boiler fell far
out on land. Flying bricks dropped in
the yards Of the houses back from the
river bank, and one went crashing through
q door panel in house fully 800 yards
away. The safety yalyo was found lying
In the yard Of house quite q distance
back from the boat, on River avenue, A
frightened man-the eIgineer-WRs seen
Issuing from the cloud OF steam and smoke
and struggling out through it to the deck
Of the steamer, The fireman was lying
out on q barge, writhing in agony, His
back had been broken. Capt. Evans was
bleeding from cuts on the head, made by
flying pieces ot the wreck. The pilot was
missing, lie had been instantly killed or
bad been blown out into the water and
drowned. In less than q minute after.
ward the boat had sunk In the river, leaV.
ing nothing visible but one wrecked cor
ner OF the pilot house, and the high stern
upon which the name Of the boat stood
out above the water.
HORRIBLE DEATH or THE PILOT.
Pilot Dayys body must have been fright.
fully manglsd by the explosion. With
his hand on the pilot wheel at the time,
there could have been no escape, even II
he had not been thrown in the water. The
wheel had been blown into numberless
pieces. The pilot house was so badly de-.
molished that pieces Of It were found scat
tered all over the bsrges, An eye witness,
who was standing on the bank Of the time,
said he saw the body OF man high in the
air, but where 1t went he did not know.
Either he fell back into the water near the
barges and driited under them, or else his
body was thrown out into the channel
where the swift water bore 1t down the
stream.
Fireman Higgans was taken In a patrol
wagon to his home on Boyle street, ALE.
gheny, Captain Evans also lived on the
same street, and after receiving medical
attention he was taken to his home, The
other men Of the crew also went to their
homes, and In an hour aiterWard there
was no one about who had been aboard oi
the boat at the time Of the explosion.
The ModoC was owned by Captain
Evans, and was valued at 5000. II was
built thirteen years ago at Wheeling, and
was considered a good tug. II was in.
speCted by the local inspectors last April,
and was pronounced in good repair. II
has been somewhat unfortunate, having
been sunk once at the Point. Tho boat
will be raised as soon as the water In the
river has subsided, when an examination
Of the wrecked boiler will bs made, and
the cause of the explosion ssCertained.
