BELMONT IN CONGRESS.
The Brand New Member Taken Down
Peg

Congressman George B. Mcclellan of
New York was rudely Jared when he
reached Washington a few days before
the opening of the session by a letter
that was handed to him by the private
secretary of Congressman o. H. p. Bel,
mont. 1t read as follows: Il
Dear Sir-I have the honor to inform
you that the Hon. o. H. P. Belmont,
whose secretary l have the honor to be,
Will arrive in Washington next Saturday
night. He desires to see you on a mat
ter of the greatest Importance and he
requests me to inform you that he
would like to come to the hotel at
10 o'clock on the evening of Saturday,
When he will communicate to you the
matter upon which he desires to in
form you.' v
Colonel Mcclellan has been in congress
for many years, and this command from
brand new congressman did not inn
press him with that gravity and inn
portance which the secretary attached
to it. To put it plainly he was mad
clear through and he sat down and
wrote the following reply to which he at
! tached the name of his own secretary:
THE private secretary of Representa-
tive George B. Mcclellan has the honor
to inform the Hon. o. H. p. Belmont
that Mr.. Mcclellan will be at the rooms
OF the ways and means committee at &c
a. m. next Monday, at which time he will
receive any message that persons may
wish to send to him. He desires to inn
press upon all such persons that the hour
is 10 a. m. After that hour he will not
be able to receive any message of any
sort not connected with the business OF
the federal government" 8

rived at the ways and means committee
room he found Mr. Belmont waiting for
him outside the dOor.-New York Cona4,
