 withheld by the pOstOfiice officials tha n investigation might not be hampere, e For two days the government inspectC n or detective, has been in the city, but b t has proceeded so quietly that his pres 9 ence has been known to only attache l of the office, and not all of them wer 3 aware of his coming. The mail fO
 southern points as far as New Orlean
 was arranged as usual, put in the pouch locked up and delivered at the door O the pOStOitice to the driver of the wagoT which carries the mail to the depot. The
 pouch was locked mp m this wagon
 which drove off towards the depot. and
 this IS the last heard of 1t as yet. The
 loss of the pouch was detected in two
 or three days and in this way, according
 to the rules of the government. a mum
 Der of southern pOstOiiices are required
 to daily remit to the Nashville pOstOiiice
 any excess of receipts over certain sums.
 which varies according to the volume of
 business done at the place. This is done
 that no large amount of money may be
 stored at any Oi6ce. Nashville in re
 turn makes daily remittance to Louis
 vile and Louisville to New York. Re ceipts for these remittances are daily
 sent to the pOstmasters forwarding the
 money. On May 9th the pOstmasters to whom the receipts were due from Dr. Curry for remittances of May wrote
 that their vouchers had not arrived.
 The banks at Franklin, Columbia and
 Pulaski then notified him of the failure
 to get the checks, etc. Proof < hat the entire mail from Nashville into the south
 had disappeared rapidly accumulated. and pr. Curry made an investigation. He learned, it Is stated, that the mail pouch had been delivered at the door of the postotilce as usual to the driver Of the contractors wagon. The mail clerk on the train which should have received the pouch stated that he had never seen anything of 1t. The pouch it was thus reasoned, had disappeared after leaving the pOstolfice, but how to settle that was the question. Dr. Curry, on May 13, notified the department at Washington that It might make the investigation. Nothing further was heard in this con nectlon until as stated Mr. Stubbs. | special agent, came to Nashville last Tuesday to hunt the affair down. It 1 IS impossible now to learn how much money was in the mail. It was destined for large and important territory and 1 the presumption is that the pouch con tained much valuable matter.
 CHICAGO, June 22.-Some dissatisfac- | tion having been expressed at the action Il of the arbitratOrs who authorized a re- l duction from S15 to S13 in the rate of l bullion from Utah points to the Missouri ! river, and refused to authorize change l Tn the existing rate of S7 from Colorado | points, Chairman Walker has issued a circular stating that the considerations which influenced the executive board | Tn reaching that result is shown that a reduction from Utah points is necessary to meet the rate west bound by the So Pacific. That there was a nun Der of other reasons. which made it i'm practicable to maintain the SI5 rate. It IS also shown that sufficient reasons do not exist for reducing the rate from Den yer. The Rock Island proposes to make a S6 rate on bullion from Colorado points. arguing that the business is largely con trolled by the existing contracts, and that reduction of the rate is important | for the development and proper distri- button of the proposed rate of S6 fairly for the service, being about one cent per ton per mile, and that the Leadville rates are made too high by the existing combination as with rates. The executive board holds 1t contrary to the general scope and spirit of the agreement for a line to seek to benefit itself by endeavOr- ing to effect it.
