SENATOR PLUMB has opened linan-
cial Pandora box by reporting the al
legged discovery of a most important al
teration in law of congress in the en-
rollment after it had passed congress,
of the law authorizing the per cent
loan of 1870. amounting to $73S 900, 600.
Mr.. Plumb has examined the legisla-
tive record and finds that the bill as
passed contained the words ''for thirty
years. in lieu of the words latter
thirty years. as appears in the en-
rolled copy of the bill on file in the
state department. He says the inter
polation OF alteration of the word
latter for the word for in the en-
rolled copy is palpable and undisguised,
and therefore the government has been
dc prived of the right, as intended by
congress, to call the bonds for redemp-
tion within thirty years. Mr.. Plumb
further says that the decisions of the
supreme court in kindred cases war.
rant the government in calling these
bonds. Senator Edmunds thinks the
issue is so grave as to demand thor
ough investigation.

Talkon the Tariff.

WASHINGTON, June 26-When Mills
called up the tariff bill In the house to day,
Kelly, Of Pennsylvania, suggested on his
individual responsibility AZ means " ex.
peditiOn Of fadjournment,th that the tariff bill
be laid by until the next session, its fate
then to depend upon the result Of the No
vember elections and that the surplus be
kept down by the entire repeal OF the to-
bacco tax. Mills rejected the suggestion
and made counter proposal that the re-
publicans should fix an early day for TAX.
ing the final vJte on the bill.
Reed, OF Maine, declared Kelly spoke for
himself alone and that the republicans
would insist upon pointing out the detects
of the bill in detail
Breckenridge, of Kentucky, declared that
the democrats intended to have n vote on
the bill unless the Atm OF March was
reached by obstruction. He challenged
the republicans to put their platform in
sthe shape ofa legislative proposition and
then take IA test vote betwe-n that and the
pending bill, letting it go to the senate if
passed by the house. He suggested that
