Colored men in Washington who have
cool opportunity to learn the gossip among
their race tell some curious stories as to the
way in which the recent colored convention
so called-of indianapolis was organized.
According to them the colorel leaders who
organized the movement received S25 900
from the democrats to do this, and this sum
was distributed in various ways the leaders
receiving $1,000 or $4,000 each
There was a sharp difference between some
of them left here as to the way in which the
money was to be distributed. The actual
distribution is said to have been made by a
federal officer in Indiana who visited Wash
ington a short time before the convention
and had conference with the democratic
leaders The real cause of the row in the

A CRISIS IMPENDS.
Parnell Almost Persuaded to Bring a
Libel Suit Against the Times.

New YORK, July 27.
Smalley telegraphs from London to the
Tribune, that the startling report was cur
rent, Thursday night, that Parnell may
after all, bring action for libel against the
Times. Ii was certain that he was seriously
considering it on Thursday. Friends say
that he has made up his mind. 1t is need
less to say what momentous resolution this
would be if really taken. Most of his Glad
stonian friends counsel him against it. They
urge all the old arguments the probability
of pref udiced judge a disagreeing jury,
expense, peril of cross examination, etc.
Parnell's answer is that his position before
a special commission would be worse then in
court of law as plaintiff.
The commissioners will 90 into matters
which might be excluded from court, and
delay, expense and difficulties of all sorts
will be greater.
Chamberlain, in the character of candid
friend, exasperated the Irish party beyond
all others. In spite of his declaration of be-
lief in ParnelPs integrity, they say all his
honeyed sentences were only meant to smooth
the way to an open commission, which
should seem to be strictly limited and really
have a free hand.
LATER.
The Standard says that Parnell seriously
contemplates bringing personal libel action
against the Times if the government refuses
to limit the inquiry.

GETTING WARY.
The Padrones who Deal in their
Countrymen see Impending Justice.

New YORK, July %.
Fifty Italians are being shipped here for
Bangor, Me. Yesterday padrone came to
the office and bought fifty passage tickets.
Every device was tried to get him to give his
name or the names of the men he was for
warding, but he would not do so. 1t is the
company's rule 10 require passengers to
give their names so that they may be in
scribed on their tickets, as in the case
of ship being lost their friends would
want to know hat had become of them. No
body demurs to this regulation except these
padroni. The one who came yesterday in re-
ply to the request for names, said: Mamma
no good, Putta down on man. When
asked for his own name he said that was not
necessary, as he was going the same evening
to Bangor by rail"
The padrone will, doubtless, meet his men
at Bangor, turn them over to the contractors,
get his dollar per man, and no one will be
wiser. 1t is evident that the padroni are full
ly aware that their traffic in Iona man" does
not bear looking into.

The large sum of money in the hands of

used in paying jurors, witness fees and his

debts owed by the marshal. The latter re-

his opinion. The latter today decided that
moneys to be used to pay jurors and wit

ment, was recently employed by the treasury
department to look up personal property now
held in adverse possession" to which the
United States has valid claim.
He reports that large amount of property,
once owned by the Confederate government
should now belong to the United States but
has been fraudently or improperly diverted or
concealed. He gives an itemized account of
over S35 200, 900 worth of such property a
large part of which he thinks may be recov-
cred. The list includes several valuable
Clyde-built steamers purchased by the con-
federate government, and disposed of after
the war by the captains or agents of the
vessels some of which are in the British navy
and British merchant marine. Besides these
there is specie, cotton army and navy equip
ments, machinery, etc, disposed of by agents
and held now in Great Britain.
