Logan Carlisle, chief clerk of the treas
ury has directed that an exhaustive ex-
animation he made of the files and papers
of all bureaus auditors offices and
divisions of the Trasury Department. TO
determine whether the treasury records
are intact or has been tampered with this
order is the result of q recent discovery
that obsolete cancelled international
revenue stamps has been taken from the
government records and. in so doing,
records in some cases were mutilated IN
others wholly destroyed. As result of
this investigation five employees were dis
missed. 1t is believed that rs, 900 records
have been either mutilated or destroyed.
! his occurred in one office alone, that OF
the first auditor.
The credit for the discovery of the theft
belongs to Auditor Baldwin. gExamina-
tlon of the records in the fifth auditors
Office disclosed the fact that number OF
records had been tampered with and
foreign stamps attached to, or consular
seals stamped on the papers detached OF
cut out. Logan Carlisle said today that
this petty piifering seemed to have beer
going on for ten years or more. Much nl
it was one in the presence of other. Those
engaged in doing it evidently did moi
consider it crime. Until the lnvestiga

Mem bers of Congress interested in the
Venezulean boundary dispute with Great
Britain said today, that President
Crepso, will be guided in making his re-
ply to Lord Salisbury by the suggestions
of this government. Lord Salisbury's
note, it has been reported. asked for the
payment of $780, 600 as compensation for
the arrest of British colonial officers a
year ago, an episode which passed into
history as the "Uruan incldenJ That
President Crespo will refuse to pay this
indemnity is certain. That he will be so
advised by Secretary Olney is equally GER
tain. 1t was said today that his reply in
substance will show that the arrest of
Sergeant Barnes and his associates is the
outgrowth of the boundary question
which must first be settled before any of
it's incidental features can be considered.
Such reply, it is asserted, would force
Great Britain to meet the issue without
further equiyocation or delay. Some
members of the House insist that Score
tary Olney notified President Cleveland
that his absence from Washington at this
time is making him the subject of un-
favorable criticism, and it is predicted
that he will shortly return to the capital
If this prediction should provo true there
is no reason to doubt tn, the CORE

doctrine will be sent to Congress within

not intended by Senator Morgan.
The correspondence was made public in
London ten days before received by the

ment, and copies of the extracts were
cabled from London by the United Press.
SirlJulian Pauncefote made no com

journal in the United States. nor is
there, as he contends, apy expression in
his dispatches to his gov9rnment which,

courteous, or conveying any reflection

washington, December 12.-It was not
until yesterday that Speaker Reed began
tne serious work of forming committees.
ontll that time, he devoted his leisure to
nearing the applications of members and
enoeavoring to satisfy himself as to their
individual capacities and fitness { or the
assignments they desired. 1t can be
positively stated that the Speaker is still
undecided whom he will appoint to the
chairmanship Of the appropriations COM
mlttee, and there are strong surface indi-
cations that he is equally undecided re-
gardlng the ways and means chairman
ship. It has been generally expected the
appropriations committee would be given
Mr. Henderson of Iowa, who was the
ranking Republican member in the last
Congress. This, itis believed will be
the final disposition Of the matter, but it
is as yet unsettled.
Speaker Reed finds it embarrassing to
place MI. Henderson at the head cf the
committee. Equal embarrassment would
attend any attempt to supersede him.
Equal uncertainty exists as to yhe ways
and means committee. There is no
reason to doubt that Mr.. Dingley of
Maine, will succeed to this craftsmanship,
although the friends of Mr.. Payne of
New York, still assert that this honor is
reserved for him.
Should Speaker Reed decide to give
this Craftsmanship to New York and re-
fuse Mr.. Henderson the craftsmanship of
the appropriations committee, it is not
unlikely that Mr.. Dingley nay succeed to
the appropriations craftsmanship.
Speaker Reed will not in all probability
announce the committees until the very
last of next week. The announcement
may be delayed until the following Mon
| day if adjournment for the holidays be
postponed until that dat 9. Neither is it
likely that the Speaker will announce
any single committee in the meantime,
not even the committee on rules. Speaker
Reed has made no plans for Christmas
holidays. He has declined number Of
| Invitations which would take him out oi
| the city during that priod. His present
| intention is TO remain in Wash ington.

HONEST men of all parties i'm this
country are Mortified and indignant at
the cropping out of fraud at the polls in
so many places. That most of these
frauds are perhaps justly laid at the door
of the democratic party is notorious, but
in saying this there is no use in saying
that republicans are always guiltless.
The purity of the ballot is absolutely
necessary TO the perpetuation of safe
government, and 1t is no answer to fraud,
for either party to accuse the other. 1t
is certainly the natural desire of every
honest citizen, anywhere and everywhere
to secure an honest vote and an honest
count. When these fail everything fails.
When the people of this great republic
are forced to feel that the declared re-
suits OF elections are fraudulent the

IT is worthy of comment, that our

is said, cast the deciding vote that elect

While there is not the slightest doubt
that all the others mentioned for the Of

the estimation of this councilman, he
was, under the circumstances, doing
what he believed to be his duty by the

out from under the party lash and use
his vote as his conscience dictates.

II there is one feature that produces
overwhelming evidence that silver
should be used as one of our standards,
it is the position taken by the majority
of the moneyed men of the east. They
have horded up the gold of this nation

cannot secure enough to transact it's

service which may readily be admitted
may be bettered. We all know that the
declarations of the different parties in
their platforms on this matter are the
merest platitudes put there only for
campaign effect, and that neither party
expects to keep these pledges should it
get into power. Nine-tenths of the vot-
ers of the United States, no matter of
what party, believe that an administra-
ton should have the unlimited power to
appoint to the offices in its gift, those
who have supported its claims before
the people and who are firm believers in
the principles of the party. Party SUI
pervision is always most efficient. The
party in power must be held responsible
for its administration of affairs, and
this responsibility cannot be duly meas
ured except by the performance of its
duties through its partisans. The man
who believes conscienciously and earn
estly in the integrity Of his party and
who has an intelligent acquaintance
with it's principles, is much less liable
to the temptation, or the preparation
of dishonesty, than the man who has no
political faith and cares for nothing
but what personal gain he may make by
having avowedly no political or partisan
Moreover the man who
desires to see the principles of the party
he sustains victorious, and who has
worked faithfully for this end, is GER
tainly entitled to honors and emolu-
ments of his party when it is victorious.
