Special Dispatch to the Intelllicnctr.
Washington, April 0.?A (lay or two
Hi nee n citizen of Ohio who bus an utternblo
yearning after a consulate, and who baa
Bpcut several months hero in efforts to grasp j
the unattainable, made his weekly trip to i
the State Department, and was told by one
of the officials that Ohio must notbea Mow- '
ed to be grasping after small things, as she j
was soon to bo honored by an appointment I
of great magnitude. The aforesaid citizen f
at once "inferred" that this meant that ?
Judge Taft was to go to England, and ho at ]
once commenced to industriously circulate
this among the newspaper men as^fact, '
with the slightest qualification, and as a re* c
suit it was seut last night to the four cor- t
ners of the globe. It is riot at all unlikely r
that Judge Taft may till Mr. Lowell's place, .
but thus far not a step in this direction hus
been taken by the Suite Department, and
the whole matter is the mere figment of a c
brain that has had littlo else to do than li
start such rumors all winter.

Special Di?i*tch to the lnlulllucncer. .
Wahiiinuton, April U.?A long-winded n
article in the Post to-day rakes up a series d
of charges against Supervising Architect
llill of thoTroasury Department, that have J,
been warmed over and served up by various
papers in thQ shape of rumors Jot a ri
long time. It charges that Hill has
worked in collusion with Bartlett, Rob- 11
bins & Co., the Bultimoro contractors for ?
the iron work'on the New York PostotRce,
in securing an allowance of over $42,000 A
over the price of their contract for aJIej.'cd F
extra labor. The evidence is not at all
conclusive in print, but it brings to mind
a well established rumor which broke o
forth last night, that the present week '!
would see an era of decapitation in the
Treasury Department unsurpassed in the
pust. It is a fact that Mr. llill will have d
to go and a number of others holding f<
equally high positions will also be die- I
mi?scd. v

Special Dispatch to the lutelllijencer. f
Washinuto.v, April 9.?Nothing is ^
known hero regarding the ^successor to
Mr. Teller in the Senate. Mr. Belford said t!
last night that if the Governor were to c
appoint him, that it would take at least
six weeks for the Governor to call a special
election to choose his successor, and d
during that time many Colorado measures j
now in a fair way to pass in the House r
would sutler, lie says that Governor Pit- t
kin .iB himself desirous of securing the t
long Senatorial term. r

Washington, April 9.?The funeral ser- c
vices over the remains of tho late Kepre- c
sentative Thos. Allen, of Missouri, took ]
place at the Arlington Hotel this morn- t
ing. Tho attendance was very large, in- ]
eluding many members of the House and ?
Senate. At the close of the service tho re- ?
mains were taken to the depot attended by {
a large number of the dead man's col- *
leagues, where they were started for Pitts- j
field, Mans., and where they will )>e '
buried.
Destructive Incendlnrr Fire. 1
Cleveland, 0., April U.?Tho Powell
Tool Company's works were partly destroyed
by fire, supposed to be the work of ,
hh incendiary. The flames broke out in the
force, a frame building about 300x50 feet. 1
This part of the works, which contained ?
probably not less than $20,000 dollars worth
of expensive machinery, beside a large
Quantity of stock, was burned to the ground. J
The remalndet of tho works, including the
office, was saved.
At 0 o'clock the watchman went through ?
the forge and found all as usual. Twenty ;
minutes later he suddenly saw the llames,
which seemed to break out all over the in- J
terior at once. As the structure was not 1
easily lired and contained but little in- I
flammable matter, it is supposed petroleum ?
had been freely scattered about by [
incendiaries, and suspicion x points *
in f)?? wnrkmnn. who Ktrimlr '
some tiuio ago, and have since \
been very troublesome, going so fur as to 1
assault the men employed in their places, j
rendering it necessary for a nolice escort 1
between the works and their homes. Yes- c
terday one of the strikers was bound over
to the Common Pleas Court for a deeper*
ato assault on ouo of the workmen. The
loss by 11 ro cannot be ascertained until an c.
examination shows hows much machinery
and stock are damaged The loss on the 5
building is not very great ^

swallowed with fUl the satisfaction becom- }
ing any toper. n
Jumbo conducted himself most approv- t
ingly on the voyage. He was indispose d s
the nratday out and refused (o eat, but aft* r t
that ho used up regularly his allotment i f
hay and other feed.
At 11 o'clock eight powerful horses
were yoked to the heavy platform car 1
upon which the cage containing Jumbo i
had been placed, and in duo t
time tho much talked ol elephant c
was tfately Jodged in Madison Square Gar- t
den. Although rain was falling briskly, (
many people accompanied Jumbo from t
the pier to the garden. ,

i Washington, D. C., April 8.?The 8hi|
herd examination was resumed this mori
ing. Witness, in answer to a question,
he had any further corresjiondence or ir
i terviews with Walker Blaine subsequent t
the writing of the letter read yesterdaj
answered that he had one other in terviei
with Walker Blaine ut the State Depart
ment some time in November laat, an<
Trescott was present part .of the time.
Witness desired to know if tho newspn
per charges submitted by him again*
llurlbut were to be admitted in- evidence
and after a generaf discussion the opinio)
of the committee wus unanimously ex
pressed in opposition to the admission o
campaign matter in the nature of a genera
attack upon the character of llurlbut.
Shipherd said lie deemed it due to hira
pelf to be allowed to oiler any evidence ii
iiia own defense; everything which led hin
to form the opinion that Hurlbut was i
purchasable man.
A running discussion ensued, and finallj
Mr. Blouut moved to exclude this evi
dence.
The motion was tabled for the present
Mr. ltice resumed with the inquiry
Huve you any other correspondence witl
the Secretary of State [Blaine] which hai
not been printed ?
Answer -1 have none, with the excep
tion of one letter of December 10, 1881
addressed to Governor Boutwell, and in
tended to bo shown the Secretary of State
whoever it might be, whether Blaiue 01
Frelinghuysen.
The letter was then put in evidence ant
read by the clerk. It was quite long auil
defended the writer (Shipherd) from th?
Secretary's charges against him of attempt
ing to bribe Minister llurlbut
Witness went back to dispatches whicl
he [Shipherd] had supposed were sent bj
Secretary lilaine to llurlbut. These dis
patches witness stated were read to Senatoi
Blair by Blaine June 2, and subsequently
Senator Blair remarked to hiui [Shipherd
that, if you had written the dispatches your
ovu hiv; wuuiu jiukunvuuuverm mcgrount
more perfectly, particularly the cable (lis
patch. Shortly after that witness saw Sen
ator Blair and asked if the dispatches hat
been sent, and waa assured they had been
and again a few days afterward Senatoi
Blair said to witness: "I have seen the Sec
retary, and ho says the dispatches wen
sent without an alteration of any kind, 01
the same day they were read to me, June2.'
When witness received llurlbut's lettei
stating no such dispatches had been re
ceiveu, he was much disturbed, and a:
once sought Senator Blair to lind out wha
it meant. The Senator was greatly nuzzled
and said: "Mr. Shipherd, this atiects mj
veracity and that of the Secretary. 1 wil
make it my business to investigate it."
Witness continued?Finally Senatoi
Blair advised mo to come to Washington
bring my letters and correspondence, ant
lay the'inalter before the Secretary, and ir
that way we should get at the bottom of it
Witness therefore came to Washington
and held his first interview with the Secre
tarv on the evening of October loth,
Witness then detailed what occurred at
this interview, prefacing with the remark
that possibly he might in some way over
run what was said or done at one interview
or another. The Secretary appeared
a little impatient, and as he (Shipherd ;
thought he seemed to anticipate the objed
of his visit, witness showed nira JJurlbut'f
letter. He took it. read it, threw it down
and said:. "What s the matter with thai
letter ?" Witness replied, "Mr. Secretary,
it disturbs us by what it does not say,
rather than by what it does say* It discusses
Peru and her atfaire. but say*
nothing of American interests.
Witness continued: "I then adverted
to Mr. Hurlbut's singular conduct in withholding
documents he had been requested
to deliver to Mr. Arizona. Blaine retorted
sharply : 'What business had you to make
an errand boy of an American Minister'
lie would have done right if ho had
thrown all your papers in the fire.'"
Witness then told Blaine what was reported
of Ilurlbut; his intimacy with
Suarez; that they had gone out together oe
thft stwtmnr; that nn nrrtt.Jni# T !.?.>
Suarez had placed at Hurib'ut'g disposal
one of the finest residences in Lima, with
a wine cellar exceptionally well stocked,
and that llurlbut was occupying it free ol
expense to himself, and all had been furnished
by the Credit Industrial. Blaine
laughed "incredulously, and said: "Oil,
they don't catch Steve in that way. If he
lives in a fine house, he pays rent for it."
Witness then said, further: "Well, Mr
Secretary, their intimacy is a matter ol
public comment in' Lima. They are always
together. Suarez ia virtually an inmate
of the American Legation."
At this liliuiie exclaimed, with great emphasis,
"If all this be true he must have
sold out to the Credit Industrial. I will go
to the bottom of this." Then, after a moment,
turning to witness, he added, "What
do you want me to do, Shipherd ?" Witness
handed him the draft of a dispatch,
saying, "Send that to Hurlbut" lilaint
read 'taml replied, ".No, not that, it would
raise a howl in Congress."
lie [Blaine] then wrote, resting on the
arms of his chair, a dispatch in substance
as follows:
"The report reaches the State Department
that your conduct is such as to lead
to suspicion of improper relations with the
Credit Industrial. You must slop it,"
Witness continued: "I heard afterward,
through Senator Blair, that the dispatch
was sent, but the dispatch which it appear*
from correspondence furnished by the
State Department was sen', was very different
from this dispatch which the Secretary
wrote in my presence, and read to me."
"Witness further detailed what occurred
at the interview November 3. At this interview
Mr. Cilley,ajjentleman thoroughly
familiar with the affairs of Peru and Chili,
was present Witness was struck by out
remark of Blaine's. The Secretary "drew
his chair close up to witness, and slapping
him familiarly said: "Do you know, Shipherd,
you have something they haven't all
got? That is patience, sir. Now I will
givo you* some more advico for nothing:
You have only got to bo patient and you
will win your whole deal. Be patient
and you will see Martinez drop into voui
lan liko an applo. Every time the Chilian
Minister comes to the Department I noticc
that his seat is hotter and hotter, and it it
the Peruvian Company that is disturbing
him;" "and this,'1 said witness, "wai
only thirty days previous to hii
sending to me the letter of December 3, ir
which ho expressed so much indignation.'
Witness was also impressed by another oc
ctirrence at this interview. The subject ol
a possiblo American protectorate over Pen
was mentioned, and Cilley was asked what
lie thought of it Horeplied 90 per cento/th*
Peruvians would hail it with the livelies
satisfaction. At this, Blaine, with tnucl
earnestness, said: "Shipherd, can't you ge
Calderon to send up a deputation? If tv
i should send three of his best men. backe<
; up with a long indorsement of the senti
1 ments of tho leading men of Peru, it wouli
be well worth wUile. Congress could thei
learn from them the true sentiments ol th
peoplo of Peru."
i Recurring to the dispatch Blaine ha
r tent to Hurlbut, relative to his suppose
r connection with the Credit Industria
Shipherd said subsequently, on meetin
8 Blaine, lie (Blnine) niil: "I have received
a reply from Hurlbut, and there la nothing
In your charges whatever. I knew
Y, there waa nothing in it; ao don't lay anything
more to me on that subject"
. Mr. Rice then aaked witness II be had
>lr any further facta to offer to aliow that
Hurlbut ever had any connection with the
Credit Induatrlal, and received the reply.
"I have not."
Mr. Rice?Have you any facta to offer
to lead to the Bllghteat suspicion that
Blaine ever had any connection with or
interest In the Credit Induatrlal ?
i- Anawer?None whatover.
If Mr. Klce?Have you anything lo ahow
that Dl/ilno over had the alightest Interest
in the Peruvian company?
AuBWer?I never charged him with any
connection or interest in cither.
? Mr. Rice?Then what grounds liave you
[. for supposing the Secretary ever woa lav,
orable to your-company?
u Answer?The manner in which he had
treated the subject, and particularly the
<r assurance of 8enator Blair. He [Blair] fro,t
Quently told me, "8biphord, you can quote
the Secretary freely, quote him a great deal
'? stronger than you have done, you can't
i quote him too strong; don't expect him to
. commit himself in writing, but be sure of
j this, that the State Department is thor,
oughly with us in this matter."
' After further questions which elicited
nothing of particular interest other than
. that the Secretary in discussing the Perui
viun question evinced a desire to have the
i troubles between Chili and Peru settled us
a -favorably as possible to Peru; the committee
adjourned.

Htuplcloaa Attempt to Negotiate *100,000
In New York.
: St. Josei'u, Mo., April 8.?The week,
4 which opened in this city with tho killing
of Jesse James, the most consuming sensa
tion of many years, is closing with a re?
markable revelation of a huge bond steal
A private telegram was received in this city
r this afternoon from New York, stating that
two men from St. Joseph were arrested iii
I the former city, having in their possession
, $100,000 of St. Joseph four per cent bonds,
- which they were trying to negotiate.
The Finance Committee of tho City
i Council have been investigating the matter
r this afternoon, aud are still iu session to
night. The have found that some of the
r new bonds, to the umount stated, have been
r abstracted from the Register's ollice, and
] uo satisfactory explanation can be made us
to how thev" were obtained. Tho fact is
[ not generally known in the city to-night,
- for the members of the Council have en
deavored to keep the matter quiet, pending
t the investigation in progress.
, Xkw Yoke, April 8.?Detectives Robert
r A. Piukcrton and Hogun tqtday arrested
- two men in tho ollice of \Y. Is. Coles &
> Co., No. 117 Nassau street. The men were
t endeavoring to sell city bonds of St. Jo'
soph. Mo. They had one hundred SI,000
r bonds of St. Joseph, Nos. 1,001 to 2,000 in
elusive. Tho men gave their names ns
t James Fisko and George M. Irwin. Irwin
L said they came from St. Joseph. They Buitl
r that Irwin wus only acting ua the ngent of
r Fiske, who had obtained the bonds from a
I man named Simpson, in Cincinnati. On
Fiske was found a ticket from Now York
r to St. Joseph. Neither man had any
, money.
I Fiske had two checks belonging to the
i Sturtevant House, ami said that he was
. staying there, llis bnggago was found
, there, but his name was not on the register.
Irwin had a large revolver in liis hip
pocket. He said he was staying at the
L Astor House. This is true, and from the
: register it appeared that ho came there
from St. Joseph on March 28, in company
with a man named 11. Levin, of St. Louis.
I They occupied room 350 until Leviu left,
I on Tuesday last. Irwin and Fiske were
1 arraigned in the Tombs Police Court in the
i afternoon and were remanded by Justice
Power. Fiske eaid he was a speculator,
; aged thirty-eight years, and Irwin said he
, was a real esUite agent, aged thirty-eight
, years.
Donald, Lnwson Simpson, agents for
i the City of St. Joseph, examined the
bonds, and said they were genuine and the
I aiguatures correct. They, however,^bought
something was wrong, as from what infor1
mation they had no bonds had been issued '
I with saeh numbers, nor would the bonds
i be put on the market except through tliem'
selves. The bonds, they said, had been
> issued to take up an old issue, und not
over $1,700 had been put out so far. They
ten cummeni urni una 101 nau not ueen
sold by authority. Mr. Donald said: "At .
i an election in St. Joseph hist Tuesday .
i grave charges were made against the City ,
I Treasurer and others. They were utterly .
defeated." I
The firm telegraphed to St. Joseph for in- (
[ formation and this evening they received a j
dispatch ftom Councilman Charles W.
Campbell and John S. Lemon saying that i
the bonds had disappeared from the Keg- :
i ister's ollice and had undoubtedly been \
stolen. They asked that the men be held ,
. until further investigation could be rnude.
' A private dispatch to Mr. Lawson said that
Councilman Campbell and Register Kingo
had started for New York. It in said that ?
Fiske and Irwin wero known in St. Joseph, i
though they had not lived there long. Mr. I
Lawson said ho understood that the two I
> prisoners had declared that the late Treas- i
ureriuSL Joseph was concerned in their
: getting the bonds. <
