more Of the time of the cabinet session
was occupied in the reading of a long re-
port from the special agent of the post
office department on the killing of

ances to that effect had been received
from large and influential element in

NEW SEAL BADLY NEEDED.

The seal of the treasury department,
which has been used in the divisions Of
loans and currency of the secretary's
Office since 1862, and which has been i'm.
pressed upon oil the bonds issued by the

ginning to show signs of wear. The
other morning the chief of the division
showed the secretary an impress of the
seal, and requested authority to have a
new one engraved, which was given. It
Is an interesting fact that this seal has
been impressed upon bonds of the
face value of $1o,a97, 534, 900. OF this
amount $4,756,714,ooO were original
issues of bonds, and the remainder were

direction of these instructors he pre-
pared for college. and early in life he

Mccoy, champion middle weight pugil-
list Of the world, met and defeated Niok
Burley, of California, in the arena at
Wilmington park Friday. The Cali
fornian was knocked out in the second
round. The fight was the most exciting
and interesting ever witnessed in this
city. The fact that 1t was pulled off in
disregard of the governors instructions
increased the general interest in the
contest. The affair had been advertised
as off, and the ruse worked to charm,
the sheriff or no other officer appearing
until the fight was over. AS yet no ar
rests have been made and none are
likely to be made. Gov. Jones wired the
officials of the Hot Spring railroad to
hold the train at Malvern so that he
could reach the city on special train,
but his instructions were either ignored
or miscarried and he did not get here.
