IN ANOTHER column will be found
lengthy review of young RAUM's case.
1t will be remembered that young
RAUM, was allowed to resign with
thirty days pay few days ago, for ap-
propriating government money to his
own use, for purposes of gambling on
horse-races, etc, etc. Old RAUM, who
appointed young RAUM to the RESPONSE
BILE position in the pension office, which
he disgraced, has not been accused OF
appropriating the government money to
his own use in this manner, but there
has been sufficient amount OF scandal
connected with his administration OF
the Pension Bureau to warrant the
President in allowing him to resign,
also. Bounce the whole family OF
RAUMs. We have enough nepotism at
Washington without them to last us
century.

BAPTIST MISSIONS.
4 Former West Virginian's Eloquent Plea
for Missions In This State.

CINCINNATI, o., May 20.-The annual
meeting of the various great Missionary
Societies of the Baptist denomination
are in full progress at the Pike Opera
House. This morning the American
Baptist Home Missionary Society met.
Rev. II. T. Moorehouse, ID. d., pre-
sented the societys fifty-ninth annual
report. Nine hundred and forty-eight
missionaries are supported by the
society, which is Us more than last
year. The receipts of the year have
been S453, 900, the expenditures 1872,
900. About 400 converts have been
made by the missionaries of this society
during the last twelve months.
In the afternoon, Rev. o. c. Pope, d..
D., Genera. Superintendent, made his
annual report of the church editice of
the American Home Missionary Society.
Seventy-four churches are aided from
the gift fund and thirty more are aided
by lands.
The churches are located in forty
States and territories. The large MAORI
ties of these churches thus helped to
build houses of worship are American,
others are Scandinavian, German and
Indian. This church edifice department
has altogether expended nearly
S43, 900, thus securing to the
Baptist denomination property valued
at S215, 900. Twenty-Five churches
have paid off their debt during.the year.
Two hundred and fortY-one loans are
still outstanding.
Rev. Dwight Spencer, of Indiana, fol-
lowed, specially urging the Importance
of Baptist missions in Utah.
Prof A. L. PurintOn, of Tennessee,
made a specially pleasing plea for West
Virginia Baptist missions, and said that
soon the chief characteristics OF West
Virginia would be beauty, bravery,
brains and Baptsts. The afternoon
meeting closed with the benediction by
Rev. DR.. Bixby, of Providence, K. /.

We Get the SURPLUS.

LONDON, May 20.-England is becoming
alarmed at the exodus of destitute Hebrews
from Russia, who are coming into Great
Britain that the movement is termed 1.-THE
Hebrew invasion Of England" The ErT-
ing Neus warns the authorities that If ihe
movement is not checked there will grow
up an anti-Hebrew movement in Enga1d,
in comparison to which the New Orleans
affair will be small On the other hand the
manager of theinstitution for the reception
of Hebrews arriving, asserts the numbered
actually destitute does not exceed 20 per
week, most of whom are shipped to Chca-
go, New York and other American cities
Reliable figures show 500 destitute He
brews are captured upon their arrival here,
by sweaters, and work for sweating"
tailors at the lowest possible wages, barely
sufficient to keep body and soultogether II
is also shown that systematic procuration
exists in regard TO the young Hebrew girls
and a society has been organized to pro,ec,
them.

The bulE of the customs receipts is
laid az New York. The record kept at
that port shows remarkably rapid in
crease in the use Of silver currency in
the customs payments. In January the
percentage of silver currency was 2S.9;
in February, 1879: in March, $50; in
April. 45.6; and during the first 10 days
OF May, 64.5.
During last January the percentage
OF gold receipts was IS, and the average
during the first six months of last year
was &c per cent. But the gold receipts
from the lst TO the tenth of this month
were less than % per cent. Of the total.
Commenting on these facts, the New
York Commercial Bulletin says that
it will not do to ignore the significance
of the change from gold to silver cur
rency," and that lit indicates where
the danger line is TO be drawn in the
operations OF the silver law and gives
warning Of the extent TO which the sill
YER must be expected to flow back into
the Treasury whenever currency de-
mands are not active"
Major JOHN NJ. CARSON, clerk OF the
Ways and Means Committee, telegraphS
70 the Philadelphia Ledger that the net
gold in the Treasury is below $40, 00O,
600. In March, 1SsS, the net gold held
by the Treasury was Ss1s,955,1s4.
In this connection the following sig
nifcanI statement from Senator JOHN
NJ. palmer, Of Illinois, will be interest
ing. In declaring he is not candidate
for President Of Vice President, he says:
9. Speech is silver but silence is gold
though I favor the liberal coinage Of
the white metal, have at present, at
least. q preference for the yellow"

BLACK MAILER's BIG GAME.
Ex-Secretsry of War Ramsey's Coachman
Leads an Easy Life.

ST. PAUL, MINI, May 2O.-Two year s
Wilson Nichols served in the capacity
of family coachman for Ex-Governor
Alexander Ramsey, Secretary OF War ur-
der President Arthur. One morning after
driving the Governor down to his office
in the Germania Bank, of which Ram
sey was at that time the president,
Wilson made a demand upon the Gov
ernor for a sum of money. The demand
was pooh-poohed by the latter, when
Wilson proceeded 10 dismount from his
seat and made the declaration that he
(the Governor) knew what had passed
between them, and had better come to
time.
Nichols followed the Governor into
the bank, and the latter, to avoid a
scene, told him to meet MIN at the office
that evening after business hours.
Nichols did so, and found present at
that meeting the Governor, two promi-
nent attorneys, and another prominent
official. The scene was, to quote Nichols,
stormy one, but finally ended in
a sum OF money, stated to oe $40, 600, be-
ing paid Nichols as the price for his
silence, and further promise to leave
the country. At this time Nichols was
required to sign an affidavit the con-
tents OF which he claimed to be un-
known to him, and also to sign further
agreement renoIncing all claims and
demands upon his victim in the future.
Nichols afterward left st. Paul, first
relating all that took place as detailed
above, and also showed the money re-
ceived. After an absence Of something
like one year he returned, and, having
spent the money received at first,
renewed his demands. He lived
in ldleness, yet always was
pentifuly supplied with money,
and in reply to inquiry would always
say that sit came easy for him" All
he had to do was to call upon the Gov
errors private attorney and ask for
what he wanted.
Two weeks ago Nichols left for st.
Paul after displaying large roll of
money which he claimed came from the
same source as his former rolls.
In one of his confidential moods he
exhibited a letter of January 16 last call
ing him to the office Of the Governors
attorney and informing him that "every-
thing was all right" To reporter who
called upon Ramsey at the time
Nichols made his last blackmailing
demand, he would only say that
Nichols was scoundrel and had
backmailed him. The Governor ad-
mitted that he had been backmaled
by Nichols, but further than that would
say nothing, referring the reporter to
his attorney. The case is one that even
rivals the sensational Wilson and Moen
case, where Moen was bled for nearly
half million dollars.
Nichols makes no attempt to conceal
his criminal operations. In fact, he
openly boasts of the manner in which
he is enabled to live without labor or
money.
