How the Tax on ,Borrowed Capital Was Repéaled for $10,000. Proceedings in Congress Yestorday, Spectal Deapateh to The Chicago Tribune, MORE CORRUFTION. ‘WasnmioToN, Jan. 12.—If sesms na if thero was to be no end of the dovelopmont of ques- tionablo transactions in connootion with Qon- gross, Tho Orodit Mobilier businoss is not yob finished ; tho charges against Pomoroy and Cald- well are still pending, and now comos another chargo of tho use of money to influenco lagiala- tlon. At the last sossion, ono Olinton Qolgate made his appearance horo as the ropresontative of tho Now York Btock Exchange. His avowed objoct waa to havo tho tax on borrowed eapital, which, it appeared woighod most heavy on tho Now York brokors, ropealed. Mr. Col- ate put up at ono of tho fashionablo otols, appeared to hayo plonty of money and was rather lavigh in lis stylo. He mado known Lis businoss to Mr, Dawos, and othér mombers of tho Ways and Menns Committeo, « but did not succoed in having his measure meet their ap- roval, The Intornal Rovenuo bill was reportod o the Hauso without hnvh:‘fx anything in it ro- Pnlfllng tho tax on borrowed capital, It passed n this ahapo, and went over to tho Senato. Mr, Colgato aud his frionds laid soige to tho Sonato Finance Committoo, and finally succoeded in got- ting them tfo insert, 88 an amond- mont, & fow linea ropealing the tax in quostion. With this amondmont tho bill came back to the House and passod aftor going through a Conferenco Committoe, A fow dn‘v(a ago Mr. Dawes rocolved a lotter from Now Yorlk enclosing a newspaper paragraph commenting on the report mado by Mr. Colgato to his cmployes of tho New York Btock ng- chango, and Intimating that somo of the monoy was used about the Committec-rooms of tho Woys and Means and Finance, and probably in Congress. Upon receiving this Mr. Dawesat once sent for Mr, Colgato, who is now hero, and this morning that successful gentloman appoared before the Committes of Ways and Moans. Mr. Dawes called his attention to tho nowspaper statomont, and thon procceded to question him 15 to his 1150 of money to secure tho logislation. At first Colgate donied lmvinf uged any money, cithor directly or indirectly, the usual form of denial, but, on being closely pressed, he con- fessed to 810,000 baving boon pald Judgo Charles Bhormon, brother of Benator Sherman. Ho stated that Judge Bherman wrote a letter en- closing n. bill for this smount.which ho slloged was for making s briof and nfgnmont bofore tho Senate Financa Committee, and for gacuring the: sorvicos of his brothor, Bonstor Shorman, to ut tho bill through the Benato, and of General nrficld, to put it brnu%h the Houso. The Com- mittee asked for this - letter from Judge Bher- man, but Colgate said ho did not have it with him. He promised, howevyor, to hand it to Mr, Daiwes to-morrow. Tho Committec also asked him to bring tho report which ho mado to the Now York Stock Exchange. Thiz also ho romised to do, Tho roport which waa addressod o Mr, Donny, Presidont of the Btock Exchange, contains another statomont, which Mr. Colgato did not make to the Commifteo to-day, butwhich will come out to-morrow. It ia to the offoct that Mr, Goo. Bassott, clerk of tho Committee on Ways and Moans, made a m'nguaitlnn to Col- that if ho wonld psy him 350 por month cash, and 85,000 when the bill becamo s law, Buasott would aid Colgate in socuring tho roponl of the tax. Judge Bherman is_United BStates Distriot .Tml[{c for tho Northern Distriot of Ohio, to which position ho was appointod by Prosident Johnson, General Garfleld denios having had nu(fth.ing,m do with the matter. Mr. Colgato did not accopt the proposition of Alr, Rassott. Ho presented it to Mr, Donny, Prosident of tho Btock Exchango, who rofused to accede to it. Mr, Colgate will be before the Committeo of Ways and Means again to-morrow. Evory effort has been made to koep the mattor quiot. THE POMELOY OABE. Bonator Yorlk, of Kansas, tolegraphed to tho Chairman of the Pomoroy Invostigation Com- mitteo to-day that himeolf, and Harlan, and Bimpson would bo here by Saturday. The Com- mitteo, consoquently, concluded to adjourn until that day, BENATOR BUMNER'S health has improved 8o much in the past week a8 to givo his frionds assurance of his eutire convalescenco in n short time. COUNTING THE VOTE. ‘The counting of the Electoral vote has_boen completed, and in tho language of Vice Prosi- dont Colfax in making the official announce- ment to the two Housos of Congress in joint convention assembled this evening,—'‘ Ulysscs B. Grant, of Illinois, is clooted a8 President, and Heonry Wilson, of Massachusotts, Vico Prost- dent for four yoars from tho 4th of Marah, 1873." But little interent was aitached to tho procoeding to-day, other than that arising from adesire to learn what disposition would be made of tho Electoral voto of those Southern Btates, whose elections have been shown to be both irregular and unlawful. Bo far a8 the mombers of the Convention wore con- corned, there saemed to bo a genoral tllsEusmon Irrespeotivo of pacty, o subect tho Slootoral vote to tho closest scrutiny. ‘Tho dovolopmonts made bofore the Sonato Committoo on Privilogos and Elections with rogard to the manner in which the Presidential eloction waa conduoted in Louisians, and the statoment of Sovators Rico and Clayton, also, aa totho way in which tho poople of Arkansas woro mado to sppoar in this snme connection, togethor with the agitation which has takon place on this nub{ual in Congross, mduced all rofleotive and patriotio Congrossmen to closely watoh the proocedings, with a view to discover and make apparent the defocts oxisting in our prosent Elcotoral system. 'Tho ovor- wholmlng mojority of tho incowing Adminstra- tion left ovorybody here to act fram the purost motives, In'‘thia viow the Joint Convontion could not_have been hold at s moro zuspicions soason, Inquiry in thoe dircotion of a roform in the Eloctoral systom has heon stimulatod more by the calm, unimpaegive sossion of to- day, with its multftudinous discoverios of infor- malitles, than by a #oore of sposolios such a8 that delivored” by Benator Morton imme- diately after the holidsys. Tho thinking meon " of both partics” are in carnosi @emanding a chango in tho mode of conducting Presidontial elections, - although thore is but lit- tlo ngroomont as to how this roform shall bo of- feoted. Only in this does genorsl sontimont co- incide, that the Pwsuut Lloctoral syatom {s cum- borsome, complicated, unsuited to the demands of theage, and atall times, and undor all cir- oumatances, it {8 fraught with danger to tho Ropublio, as was suggested in_iunvmorablo uarters to-day, Not only is tho Joint Conven- tlon itaelf unsatiataotory, “as woll as the rules by which 1t is governed, but, In tho vne of a oloso Presidontial contost, cases lile thesa of Louislana and Arkansas, T'oxas, l“llllfilpgl, sud® Georgia oould not b docidod without' bloodshod. Tho popular improssion was that tho connting of the 13, 1873. NUMBER 178, Tlootoral votes would proceod smoothly until tho Btato of Lnu(ulnnf was ronched. Lvory- body understaod thoro wore two sots of ‘Llocte ora from that Btato, and It waa known that but onoof thom could bo ndmitted. Xt had boon whisperod nround thab both would ba thrown ont, and thon ngnln it was statod that tho Loulslana dologation in Cougrose wonld rosist suy such procceding. Pooplo who woro prosent and =~ romembored tho econo that took placo four yoarn ngo, on a similar oceaslon about tho Electoral vofo of tho State of Goorgls, half nx&enwd. linlf hoped for a ropo- titlon of that oxcltomont. An unoxpocted pauso, howover, was mado bofors Louisiana was reached, whon tho vote of Goorgin wag an- nounced by tho tollers ss having beon cast for Horaco Oreoloy, Mr. Hoar, of Massachusoits, “hofi of all other mon in tho assemblage, ro- minda tho spectator most of tho groat jour- nalist, aroso and objeoted to its being rocolved, on . the ground {hat tho Eloctora oould not voto for & dond man. Thero wns & porcops tiblo nongation na Honr concluded hin objoction. Porhaps fow, if any, approhond that such an ob- Jootion would bo mado. Tho only thing to bo dono was, for tho Senato to rotire to its chamber tadocldo the queation ; but, before tho prasidiny officor gavo thie ordor, 1t wan ngreod by wnmu mous conaont that tho case of Georgis should bo paaged over informally, Tho count proccedoed without interruption” until tho Biate of Minsissippt was reached. Assoon as lior voto was announced, Sonator Trumbull aroso on tha right of tho prosiding offlcer, aud objooted, giv- ing his ronsons thorefor in’ tlo- clear, cogent manner peculiar to himaclf, The point had now Dboon roached when tho Joint Convontion must soparate, Without waiting for anotherattempt ot compromise, Vice Prosident Colfax, bringing down his gavel rathor omphatically, nn- nounced that tho Honators sould Trotiro to thelr. chamber ~for consultation. Sniting tho action to tho word, tho Vico Prosidont, f;nthoflng ug tho balanco of the envolopes containing tho electoral votes, camo down from tho Spoalkor’s chair and hoaded tho Bmcnuslnn, which took up its march towards the ionato wing of tho Capitol. Inafew minutes tho Sonatoys had rotired, and Bpoakor Blaino rosumed tho chair. Tho' question was soon sottlod, and then both Housos came togothor, ‘Tho samo routine was pursued in the cnaes of Toxas, Loulsiana, and Arkansns, but there wns no excitoment, and, long boforo tho busincas was concludod, tho gallerios wore omptied. [0 the Associated Press.) NOMINATIONS, 2 Wasmvaroy, Fob. 12.—Tho Prosidont sent to the Bonate tho following nominations to-day : Postmaslers, J. P, Throsher, Benton Harbor, Michigan; George Q. Bucknor, St. Charles, Missouri, sud John M. Brainard, Boone, Iowa. SENATOR SUMNER. 1t is atatod that tho ghyqlcinn of Sonator Bum- ner ia of the opinion thatif ho can bo induced to keep from oxcitoment and romain away from (Jon%rcss for tho remainder of tho session, ha will bo able to onter upon his Sonatorinl duties ot the noxt gossion with much of his old vigor. TVETOED. Tho Prosidont hils votood tho bill ontitled “An act for the relief of thoso-kufforing from the do-. struction of tho salt works near l\lnnchustor,’ Kg., ursuant to tho order of Genoral Buell." ‘The Prosidont says tho objections made by him to tho bill for tha rolief of J. Milton Bost, and also of tho East Tennessoe University, apply with equal forco to this bill, The destruotion of the salt works was a military necessity, and he cannot consent to tho dootrino that tho United Statos aro lisblo for all cluims of proporty de- stroyod by the Union armies during tho war. KENTUCRY ELECTION TROUDLES. Unitod Statos Distriot Attornoy Wharton, of Louisyillo, has been in Washington and in con- sultation with the Attornoy General in refer- ence to the cages of portios in Lexington, Ky., charged with rofusing to allow colorod votes to be recoived at tho oloction in that city.
