THE TAX BILL.

Washington, July 20.?In the .Senate
day, the tax bill was taken up, the pendg
amendment being to strike out the
?visions repealing the tax on bank capil
and deposits, bank checks, drafts, etc. j
Mr. Voorheea denounced the bill asauj
lious pieco of favoritism in behalf of
ivileged classes. It had been concocted
pon the hccis of jthe session by the Itetblican
majority to serve a partizan pur)se.
After a debate between Messrs. Voor;es
and Uarison, MrJJoncs, of Louisiana,
ibmitted figures showing the small
olits realized from the culture and
anufacturo of sugar. One of the best
ops of late years amounted to 210,000,000
mnds of sugar, which at 7A cents realized
8,000,000. Molnsses from this sugar
ould be worth SI,000,COO more, making
o value of the product $22,000,000. The

Any serious reduction of price would enil
such loss in the receipts as would wipe

The Senate committee amendment to the

A NENN.1TIOX.
n onvr to Trove llio Arrrplance of KnortnoiiN
IlrlbcM by CoiitcrcMNiucn.
Washington', July 20.?There is a sensajn
browing in Congress. A letter has
icn written by one J. J. Newell, formerly
Adrian, Mich., in which ho declares that
> has documents, books and papors to
ove that no less than ?2,000,000, in
oncy, stocks ana bonds, were furnished
r ft pool in 1868 to 1870 to securo the pasgo
of tho bill making tho land grant to
o Texas Pacific railroad. 115h communition
is very voluminous and makes speci;
allegations, withholding only tho names
persons involved. He says that $90,000
money and $200,000 in stock were placed
tho hands of two Senators to disburse
hero it would do tho most good in that
>dy. It was properly placed, so that
rentually the grant was made, lie alleges
so that $1,000,000 in stock was used to
iss tho bill in tho IIoubc.
He asks the committee to name a day
hen he can be heard and he will demon
fltrate that an investigation should be
ordered. lie plodgcs himself to furnish
the names of the men who disbursed and
accepted the bribes and to prove the
transaction by documentary evidence. Some
of tho committee are for stilling the inquiry,
but it is understood that a majority
aru in favor of hearing what Newell has to
offer. Tho Question is pertinent, owing to
tho fact tho Texas Pacific never did any
work to earn the lands, but has since been
consolidated in the Gould-Huutinirton
I Southwestern system, and a bill is pending
I to confirm the grant to tho consolidated
roads.

ItrcWNter In Court.
Washington, July 20.?In tlio Criminal
Court this morning Mr. Ingersoll resumed
tho argument for defendants in tho Star
Itouto cases on tho admissibility of Walsh's
evidence.
Mr. Ingersbll atlirnied three propositions,
first?that tho confession of a fellow conspirator
cannot be accepted against an associate;
second?that the confession canuot
bo used against himself until the conspiracy
has been otherwiso proved ; and
third?that tho confession of acts not done
in furtherance of tho objects of the conspiracy
cannot bo received. He argued
these noints briefly and was followed by
Mr. Wilson on the same side.
At the conclusion of Mr.Wilson's remarks
General Henkle took up the argument, and
while ho was speaking Attorney General
Brewster entered ti e court room nnd took
a seat at tho prosecution table.
After licnkle's speech Mr. Merrick roso
to make his argument
Mr. Merrick was interrupted in his argument
by tho Attorney General, who was

I Mr. Brewster said, "It is only by com*
pulsion and other engagements that I have
been prevented from taking an active part
in the case at all."
"We have gotten along very well," said
tho Court.
"I am sure you have done better than
most people expected," replied tho Attorney
General as he left the room.
ilr. Merrick then continued argument
until the recess and resumed it alter
the recess.
At tho close of some remarks by Mr.
Chandler, which closed the argument
upon the question for both sides, the court
adjourned.
The decision will probably be rendered
to-morrow.

Ktrmnbontinen'M Meeting;.
PirrsnuKGir, July 20.?A large and enthusiastic
meeting of steamboatmen, merchants
and manufacturers, was held to-day*.
Rule 0110 of'thciinvigation laws, relativoto
passing steamers signaling, was loudly denounced
and a resolution was unanimously
adopted asking Secretary Folger to have it
repealed.
"The Scioto disaster," said CapL Mich
aeles, "was, in my opinion, due to the recent
change in the signals, as much as to
any other cause. The new law on this
j point reversed the time honored order of
I things, and it ought to be repealed. We
shall pass resolutions to that elFect anyhow."
j This feeling seemed unanimous, and
Capt. Deviuney was quoted, in saying that
j the man whoso vote decided the change in
the old law, had never been aboard a
j Western steamboat and seemed totally ignorant
of the mischief he was doing.

The Dl?*|?pri*rnurr of a Hutu of Muuey
AccouuicU for After Three Yearn.
Paksons, Kan., July 20.?An incident
occurcd hero Monday which has been tho
means of vindicating the reputation of a
former teller of tho First National Bank of
this city. Five yeare ago, when Angell
Matthewson chartered the First National
Bank, he employed Kirby Smith as teller.
Smith hold tho position for two years,
when tho bank passed from the control of
Mr. Matthewson to Robert Stevens. Owing
to his elllciency Smith was retained.
At tho end of six months, however, something
occured to shako tho bank directors'
confidence in their teller, resulting
in his resignation. At that
time Matt Thornton, a colored
man, was employed about tho bank
as janitor. It was Thornton's habit to go to
tho bank early in tho morning to sweep
out and dust Matt was of a curious turn
of mind, that nrompted him to investigate
matters in tho bank whenever ho was there
by himself. Upon the morning of November
14, 1870, ho peeped into the cash
drawer, and discovered theroa $1,000 nark.
ago of (greenbacks. The package he took,
and consequently when the books were
balanced that day the cash was $1,000
short. No one connected with tho bank
could account for tho disappearance of the
money. Thornton was questioned, but no
satisfaction-was gained from him. Detectives
from St. Louis were nut to shadowing
both Smith and the janitor, but failed to
establish any clew. Smith was not suspected
by tho bauk directors of being responsible
for tho shortage, but was given
to understand that he was expected to make
up the deficiency, which he did and at the
same time handed in his resignation
both of which were accepted. Smith's
friends always maintained his innocence,
while another faction felt satisfied that he
was responsible for the shortage. Thus the
matter has stood for three years, and
would probably be shrouded in mystery
forever had not tho rule held gooil that
people will give themselves away providing
they are given time to to talk. The
janitor kept his secret for awhile, but finally
made a confident of John Boland, a
porter at the Belmont House. Boland, in
return for his friend's confidence, insisted
on having half the spoils or he would give
the tiling away. Thus Thornton
was compelled to whack up. Poland
has a farm near Kmporia, which
ho rented to another colored man. To this
man Boland confided tho secret. All went
smoothly until Boland and his tenant had
a falling out, when the tenant sought revenge
and came to Parsons, went before
au ofiicer, and made a statement of what
Boland had told him concerning the taking
of tho money. This led to the arrest
of Thornton and Boland, who are in custody
charged with robbinir the First Na
tional Bank of $1,000. Tho money will be
collected from Boland. Thus the vindication

A Decision or Iutcrnit to Civil Service
RefbriucrN.
Nkw Yokk, July 20.?The case of General
Newton M. Curtis, au ex-Treasury
Agent, convicted in the United States Circuit
Court for collecting money from officeholders
for political purposes, came up
again to-day, when a decision wan rendered
by the court in banc, composed ol
Judges Wallace, Benedict and Brown, on
a motion for a new trial and in arrest oi
judgment. The decision is in effect thai
an act of Congress, prohibiting Government
officials from collecting money for
political purposes, is constitutional, and
therefore the motion in arrest oi judgment
and for a new trial is denied. Curtis was
sentenced to pay a fine of $1,000. Counsel
for Curtis intends to carrv the case tc
the Supreme Court
General Curtis' counsel said that he
would not defer making application for a
writ of luibcan corpus later than to-morrow.
Should Chief Justice Waito grant the writ
ho will determine whether he will hear the
argument himself or make it returnable
before a full bench in Washington. The
application for the writ will be made to
further test the constitutionality of the act
of Congress under which Gen. Curtis was
convicted.

of the central committee and will be selected
chairman of the executive commit
tee. The convention took a recess till two

' The convention reassembed at twoo'clock
and the Committee on Credentials reported
110 contest. A permanent organization was
' effected with Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton
Chairman, Wm. Gleason, of Cleveland.
i Secretary. Mr. Pendleton was received

. present incumbent, was nominated for Supreme
Judge by acclamation.
The ticket was completed by the nomi
nation of J. W. Newman, of Portsmouth,
i for Secretary of State, on the third ballot,

( for member of the Board of Public Works.
THE PI.ATFOKM.
i The following platform was adopted:
Tho Democratic party in convention assembled
reaffirms the great principles
| which are the foundation of afreegoverni
ment, among which are equal rights to all,
?pcciui privileges 10 none; protection of
1 the weak against the encroachments of the
j strong, equal taxation, free speech, free
press, free schools, ami first of all a free
and incorruptible ballot,
limited, That we favor honest reform in
' civil service, and denounce the extortion
of money from officeholders to corrupt the
ballot aiid control the elections as a most
threatening, as it is the most insidious
danger that besets a free government, and
the shameless resort to such methods by the
party in power to carry out ends is* evidence
of the utter abandonment of principle
.for place and spoils under "Boss"
rule. We denounce the reckless extravagance
and profligacy of the Republican
party in the appropriation of the public
treasure, which should be applied to the
extinction of the National debt, and wo be*
lieve the time has come when by an
honest and-economical administration of
the Government, the burden of war taxes,
which the people have so long borne, and
which, in the end, fall upon labor, may,
and ought to be reduced: but we denounce
the attempt of the Republican Congress to
reduce the taxes , on those articles which
uionu win inuru me uenciit 01 me ricb.
Jtetohcd, That wo favor a tariir levied to
meet the actual needs and so adjusted in
its detail with a view to equality in public
burdens, as to encourage productive industries
and afford labor a just compensation
without creating monopolies.
JietoliYd, That stability in the value of
money is a primary requisite to industrial
and commercial prosperity. This can only
be secured by maintaining both gold and
silver as money, as provided by the Constitution,
and subjecting the issue and regulation
of paper money to established principles
which will prevent fluctuation in the
value of the currency.
Hmhrd, That the growth of monopolies
is such as to seriouBly threaten the rights
of individuals and the public welfare, and
ought to be provided agaiust by proper legislation.
Jlmlvedi That the Democratic party has
ever maintained and still steadfastly adheres
to the doctrine of the largest liberty
consistent with the public welfare, and is
opposed to legislation merely sumptuary.
Jimlved, That it is a duty incumbent on
our Government to protect its citizens, na
tive uorn ana naturalized, at homo and
abroad, and wo demaud a searching inquiry
into the alleged outrages committed
against the citizens of the United States in
foreign countries.
A ratification meeting was held this eveninc,
addressed by Senator Pendleton and
others.
