GOVERNOR woLFLEY's MISTAKE

It seems now that Governor Wolf ley found a mares nest on his "exami- nation of the treasUrer's statement and committed a great wrong toward his predecessor in office and the present and past Democratic office holders. It is true he practically re- tracts all that he said in his letter "To the Public" in his communica- tion to the Phenix Herald printed be- low. But it is a question whether that letter will be as widely copied as the preceding one. Telegrams an- nouncing the frauds" committed by ex-Governor Zulick and his gang were sent to Los Angeles and San Francisco and presumably to the metropolitan cities of the East. Edi- toriaI comments on the rottenness" of the preceding administration, talk ing the Governors letter as their text, were printed throughout this terri tory and New Mexico and California. Governor Wolfley cannot undo his work thoroughly even if he so de- sired, and he should be censured by all fair-minded people tor tine prosti- tuition of his office for political pur- poses. Carelessness in the matter is no excuse for the islander. He should certainly have thoroughly investigat- ed the matter beyond the possibility of doubt before he gave his official signature to such a ibelous article as was his "Letter to the Public"
 Below is his letter of explanation:
 I1lENiA. J ull 10, 1oSJ.
 Editor Herald: The Gazette of yesterday called my attention to it's suggestion that if the Governor will refer to a report of Treasurer But Ter to the 14th Legislature he will find the outstanding warrants reached sum approximating S3O0,O0O." l find upon examining that report that Treasurer Butler does thus state. though he omitted it from any of his tabulated statements quoted from by me, that over cash applicable there will remain $134,O00 of outstanding warrants. I make this correction at once and as an amount to be deducted from the expenses of the years 1887 and 1888, which, with the credits and debits, about balances the two peri ods.
 In making my statement l quoted from page s, Balances at close of year 1SS6," page 9, @Receipts and disburse- mentS. all sources, years 1SS5-6," and page 10, "Receipts and disbursements General Fund, 1SS5-6." These head ings should indicate and give exactly what they say, and 1 took it for granted that they did so, especially as so much money was on hand, and 1 had not seen or heard of the above report until the Gazette called my at tention to it. LEWIS WoLFLEY,
 Governor.

Jefferson Davis Denies 1t.

The statement having been published
that the Government of the Southern Con
fedcracy had meditatcd union of the
church and State, Jefferson Davis has
written to Rev. William Jones, secretary
of the Southern Historical Association, in
which the writer says: "1hc story referred
to is not only untrue, but absurd. The
Constitution of the Confederate States
differed from that of the United States by
having in its preamble a recognition Of the
Supreme Being, and invoking the favor
and guidance Of Almighty God, and In
section Of the first article, II said: Con
grcss shall make no law respecting IN
establishment Of religion, or prohibiting the
free exercise thereof " The different de-
nominations to which the members Of the
Cabinet belonged is also cited to show the
absurdity of the story.

2S.-About April Is the Hudson Bay company's
storehouse here was entered and soma ST. 500
worth of furs stolen. Matheson, manager of the
company here gave orders for secrecy and noti-
fed the Winnipeg office to look out for the furs.
Yesterday the whole state of affairs came out,
and warrant was issued for the arrest of Walter
Reddon, chief of police here, for the robbery
Reddon. under the name of Walters. put up at
the Tecumseh house, Winnipeg took the furs to
a man named Wasdale, to whom Ii, repre-
sented that, being a government officer,
he would like Wasdale to sell them for
him. Complying with this request. the
furs were sold to dealer, who in turn took
them Thursday last to the Hudson Bay company
to sell. Owing to peculiar marks on the furs
they were recognized at once and traced t. the
man named Walters. The company handed the
case to Perdue, lawyer. who came here Friday
night, with Wasdale, looking for Walters
Naturally, Mr. Perdue asked the assistance of
the chief of police who assisted in investigating
the premises, but after working together Mr.
Perdue's suspicious were aroused. and he con-
tinued the investigation alone, with the result
of finding that Walters and Reddon were one A
warrant was then issued for Reddon, who was
brought before Magistrate Lyon. The prisoner
asked an adjournment to obtain counsel. and
Lyon allowed him TO go at large under Serge ant
Coker, of the provincial police force. While in
the Hub hotel Reddon asked leave to wash his
hands, and skipped. Coker followed, but did
not see the prisoner afterward. Reddon was in
hiding among the hotels during Saturday, and
at night left for the Indian camps word being
brought to-day that he was seen couple Of
miles down the Winnipeg river at an Indian
camp The chief was generally believed to have
assisted Crown Timber Inspector Dulmage to
escape week ago to Minnesota It is thought
