A TRIBUNE reporter called at the of- fice of htb& Company in m&ve\-‘czfig :;) earn whether _there _was ]t.hcmnpon. Both Mr. Hughitt, General Man- &zer, and Mr. Cuyler, Division Superintendent, stated that there was not a word of trath in it. The men were all satisfied, and were grateful to the Company for giving,_them full work at the last year’s wages. Tacideaof a strike just now was quite preposterous, for there Was 1o neces- sity of working the shops at all a¢ present, and the Company was kecping them going merely out of kindness towards the men. 308 U BICR o diss . It was reported by telecraph 2 few day ¢hat John A. Rice, formerly of this city, had gone into bankruptey in Philadelphia. “From an official ststement ?} flx& bg}:’lflpt‘! de:xst just made it appears that the total amount o A Biime agatnct i is $417,S2L OF this respectable ~ sum the largest division is $100,000 which is due the trustees of H. Green, and this §s understood to be gecured by real estate. Variows banks are ect down as interested 10 the amount of $56,15%.06, and an item of £13,19.35 i< noted as due D. A. Gage. Partics outside the city fall in to the amount of $90,000, and the rest of the sum first named is scattered with amazing impartiality over all classes and condi- tions of )ifc in Chicago. Glancing over the list, it aqpears that ~Mr. Rice owed his plumber §1.508; for paints, ete., $4,133; for Trockery, $3,533; his baker, §232; a large dry goods house, $5,851; the butcher, §7,2:0; the mi §1,159; the fishmonger, $1,300; the liquor merchants, §1,500, and 0 on through all the branches of trade carried on in the city, in- duding the Ice man, the furnitare deslers, ewelers, lawyers, grocers, cigar men, printers, ivery-stable men, coal-deslers, gos men, and in short each and every calling known to man in a state of civilization. It was a pretty cleansweep, and the receipt of the official notification by 175 Chicazo firms was unguestionably the csuse of mo little profanity. APTEE THE MARSHALSHIP. . Charles H. Ham hias gone to Washing- ton, armed with letters from s number of ‘prominent gentlemen, advocating his clalms for the United States Marshalship, in_the event of Mr. B. H. Campbell’s withdrawal from_that of- fice. Mr. Ham counts on the aid of the Hon. John Logan and several other Senators, and it 3s said has some strong letters from some of the strongest politicians in this city. Asgh. gm’s application is based upon the voluntary withdrawa) of Marshal Campbell, and zs that gentleman says that he will not with- draw, it {5 doubtful if Mr. Ham’s journey will amount to much. Marshal Campbell says he is cotnfortably situated, and he docs 10t propose resieming, and by the time Mr. Ham is informed of this fact e will probably return. BOARD OF EDUCATION. RECEIPTS AND DXPENDITURES. The Board of Education held their regular meeting lust night at their rooms, No. 85 Fifth avenue.

Colvin ordering the Board not to recognize Mayor Hoyne in any way on pain of immediate removal. is document was similar to other letters sent to the various city departments, which have already been published. City Clerk Butz also wrote the Board inclos- Ing 2 copy of the resolution of the Council di- recting the departments to obey Mr. Thomas Hoyne as Mayor. 'he following communication, which had ‘been received during the day, was also read: Maxon's OFPICE, CHICAGO, May 12, 1876. —GEX- yiexex: I am informed by the City Clerk that sou have becn furnished with a copy of the resolu- tions of the City Council adopted on the 9th ins! declaring that I have been duly elected and quali- fied a8 Mayor of Chicago, and requiring the various departments of the City Government 1o recognize me as Mayor.

HoxrNE, Mayor. TInspector Smith moved that the several com- munications be referred to the Judiciary Com- mittee and the attorney of the Board. The motion was adopted without discussion. EXTENSION OF A LEASE. The communication from Mr. R. C. Rounsa- ville, asking that his lease of schiool property at No. 146 Stale strect be extended for a period of twenty years, was_called up. In consideration of this extension, Mr. Rounsaville offered to in- cresse the height of the present building to four stories, to make it stone front, and to com- lete it in first-class style. The School-Fund Property Committee had reported against the extension, because the lcases on all other proj eriy would expire long before the time askel end the Committee considered it advisahle to have an uniform system in regurd to the length of leases. Inspector Reed moved that the report of the Committee be amended so0 ae to accept Mr. Rounsarille’s propositiun,provided that the City Council’s consent to the cancellation of the present lease can be abtained. After some debate the motion was carried by 8 vote of_ycus 10, nays 4,—the negatives being Mesers. Engiish, Olinger, Smith, sud Richberg. * BXPLNSIVE ANNIVERSARY BXERCISES. Tnspector Clarke, of tlie Comuuitiee on Nor- mal Schoal, offered the following: Pesolred, That a majority of the pupils in the Normsl School having expreased a desire to be ex- tused from pnrflfi‘ifl!fln in the anniversary exer- zises thut ondinarily take place at the close of the fciol-year, for this year, on sccount of the ex- penses attendant thereupon, the Normal School be not required to take part in their exercises. Inspector Sullivan was of opinion that the ex- ense incident to the graduating exercises of he High Schoal was too great, and that the sraduates should be requested to follow sim- plicity and economy in the matter of dress. ‘The resolution, after several members had ex- pressed thelr views on this matter of style aud tconomy, was adoj EVESIN( Inspector Sullivan then ifls who may graduate from the High School is vear be requested to dress for the public exhibition in as simple a style as possible and to refrain from making unnecessary display, and that the Principal of tbe High Tehoot b6 directed to communicate this to the pupils.

He moved as an ammendmeut that there should beno public ex- hibition at the High-School this year. The amendment was uot seconded. Ins) r W=lch considered that this excess p.dress was eniuely owing to placing the pupils on a platform. He thought if the pupils were placed in the body of the hall there would be Do incentire ¢o extravagance in this respect. Inspector (Aarke suggested that the resolu- $iom be amsndsd 50 23 to direct the Principal to G morved that the pu-. Erufidc seats for the pupils in the body of the ! Inspector Sullivan accepted this amendment, and the resolution was then zxdopted.

The Board then adjourned. e THE COUNTY-BUILDING. The County Treasurer will issue his fix_ml warrant to-day for the collection “, the _rlclm- quent personal-property tax on the North Side. The Clesk of the Criminal Court was busy yesterday making up the record in the Twen- tieth Ward judges of clection case, for trans- mission to Jolict, where the case will be tried early in June. Commissioner lolden and County-Attoruey Rountree, old-time Democrats, were yesterday discussing their party outlook very secretly and came to the conclusion that the next Pro dent would be of tleir way of thinking. a resolution to The Committee on Public Buildings and Pab- e Service vesterday agreed to go on and pile the city's lialf_of the dome for the new Court- House, and take the risk of the county getting the money back. This action was necessary, for while the city has failed to_take any action in the matter it would jeopardize the founda- tion of the county’s half to bave the city do its piling after the concrete and stone were 1aid by ibe county. A delegation from the County Board, accom- anicd by the Medical Board and Architect Eochr:.ne, visited the new County Hospital yes- day morning, to arrive at some conclusion as to the quontity and quality of furniture that would be needed to furnish the two pevilions now about completed. No action was taken, but it was agreed to hold another mecting at Tnoon to-day at the office of the architect, when a determination will be reached. The Com- missioners report that they are much plessed with the progress of the work, and that the Hospital can be occupied in & few weeks. Afew days ago it was chronicled that Rein- ‘hardt, an old county contractor, had committed suicide. To the story of his unfortunate death is to be added the fact that just before his death he gave = chattel mortgage on ali of his worldly effccts, and just on thé eve of taking his life secured the, eignature of Deputy-Sherifl Puscheck 10 3 note for §3,000, after failing to catch Comnhissioner Herting in the samc'trap. v imourns his misfortune, has been notified that he will be called upon in a few -ln_vfi‘lofl_ryui $1,000 of the $5,000 does not 1itigate his grie! A few days ngo <overal *opinions ™ were lald before the County Bowrd at the instance of the County Attorney. which were in effect that the Board couid =holizh township orgunization, and then again tha it cotid not. Mr. Rountree is now suxious 1o have these *“ opinions ™ printed in pamphlet formn in all the known languages for the benefit of the tax-payers. He rcasons to himself, doubtless, that the pamphlets would ve an _excellent clectioneering doc- ument, and a great ways towards influencing the people to vote aguinst abolishing township organization. It is Righly robable that the will defeat his scheme y, failing to incur the necdiess expense of printing his pampblets, and that the wiser course will be udu&xed of submitting the ques- tion to the peo le this fall, leaving the courts ta afterward e upon the legality of its action in the matter. Such acourse will be attended ‘with no extra expense, and would secm to be the easiest way to get at a solution of the vexed question. THE GRAND JURY. When the Grand Jury convened yesterday morning there was promise of its doing a heavy day’s work, judging from the throng of wit- nesees loitering about the halls. The investi- gatinawhinh have so long been threatened, were taken hold of as usual, the subjects of in- quiry varying with the witnesses. The most at- tentlon was given to the Jail mansgement and affairs at the Insane Asylum and Poor-House, the monotony being occasionally relieved by an ‘ordinary complaint or re%u.lnr docketed case. The principal witnesses in the Jail matter were ex-employes, amons whom were Charles Mar- tel, Jobn Longley and —— Oleson. Their testi- mony was of a general rather than special character, and covered Agmew’s entire administration, from the Jailer's walks through the strects at night with Blen- nerhassett, in which it is eaid that they had their wine suppers, ete,, down to the Ileniency shown Mike Madden, for which the Jailer was indicted by o former jury. The witnesses in reference to the Insane Asylum were Dr. Dodge and John Comiskey. The former testified %n reference to the character of food furnished the inmates of those institutions, the substance of which was given in these columns two weeks ago. The latter indulged in an irregular con- versation about what he knew of the relations of Periolat with the county paupers and County Board, how he was paid and how much, but his Tevelations were by no means startling, except when he informed the Foreman in answer to a question that Warden Kimberly was not board- ing the insane and p:m‘)crs in his chsrzn:i but that the county purchased the food, an that Kimberly’s “occupation was that of 2 high cook ratlier than that of the keeper of a boarding-honse. The witness will be recalled to-day, and will produce such papers from the files of the Board as may be desired, covering contracts, vouchers, ete. The examination of Jail matters will be continued Monday. THE CITY-HALL. The receipts yesterday from the Water De- partment were $3,515. ‘There was $30,000 paid out yesterday by the City Treasurer on the city debt. Treasurer Dan O'Hara returned from the East yesterday. It is supposed that he will count” the money and pull out immediately, Jeaving Clinton Briggs to take a hand in, or let the Treasury take care of itself till a conclusion of the troubles is reached. The office of the City Collector was closed all day yesterday, owing to the recent develo ments. The Comptroller sent word to have the License Department open to-day, and business there will go on as nsual. Meanwhile, the em- ployes of the City Collector wait for instruc- tions. CRIMINAL. John Frienzie and John Andrews are locked up at the Armory charged with stealing cloth- ing out of the Lakeside Building. * James McLanghlin, a notorjous light-fingered chap, was captured yesterday afternoon with his right hand in alady's pocket at the corner of State and Randolph streets. A Penitentiary fledgling named James Smith was arrested last evening by Constable McLean for stealing $30 worth of harness from a barn in the vicinity of Third avenue and Twelfth strect. John Bell, the young man who was recently arrested for swindling C. H. Rowe & Co. ona forged chock, was yesterduy sgain put under bonds for similarly swindling the millinery firm of D. B. Fisk & Co. James D. Burton, the snide auctfoneer, was locked up st the Armory yesterday on complajut of John Graham, of 129 Svuth Jeflerson street, who accuses Burton of selling him a snide ‘watch upon false representations. Jacob Landsburg, a Polish pawnbroker at No. 306 State street, was yesterday held in_$1,000 buil until the 1Sth jnst. to answer to Justice Summerficld for biting off the end of his wifc's nosc. Laudsburg claifas that e did it in sclt- efense. Dennis G. Quinn, foreman of a gang of six men at work loading the schooner Monticella with grain from the Buckingham _elevator, sworo out warrants for riot upon thirty-five men, who he accuses as asssulting himself and his employes because they were working at rutes under those accepted as the stan among the grain-trimming fraternity. THE RIOTERS. In the district of the West Division where brick-yards do most abound all wes guiet yes- terday, snd the strikers concluded to resume work at the reduced scale. There was very lit- tle demonstration, and everything suddenly scttled down to an orderly basis. T%e men ar- rested by Sergeant Vesey's force the day before had a hcanngH yesterdsy morning before Justice Scully. He took occasion to talk very plainly to the men, and fined the leaders $35 and costs each, but remitted the fines on a prom- ise that they would go and sin no more. His remarks evidently good effect, for every- thing remained qulet during the day. Fourteen of the lumber-shoving rioters, whose pranks somewhat excited the public mind not a week ago, appeared before Justice: Summer- lfiidd yc;(‘u]ll-y for riot. John Shumer and enry iy were dischargy The rest took achange of venue to ged. dJustica Foote, who | missed Wenzel Schmidt, Michael Karasal, ‘z‘{'f!l. and Liska. The others were held to the Criminal Court in the following bonds Fischer, $300; Burianck, $1,000; Stepotck, $300; Kusch, $300; and Max Stricker and Marzk, 300 each. They ull gave bonds. Twelve officers and as muariy other witness swore against them. SUBURBAN. EVANSTON. Considerable excitement was caused at 2 o'clack yesterday afternoon by afire breaking out in Afr.

Be- sides being cut badly on the necle by the fence which he strack in his fall, Mr. Goebel received other injurics, but was better last evening. His escape from instant death was a narrow one. Capt.

A meeting of the Second Ward Republican Club was held at No. 513 State street last even- ing, Elliott Anthony in the chair, and J. W. E. Thomas, Secretary. The Chairman stated the special object of the meeting to be to suggest names to be voted forat the-primaries as dclegates to the coming County Convention. Mr. F. L. Fake moved the appointment of a committee of five, toreport eight names to be voted for as delegates. Dr. Smith oftered an amendment, that sixteen names be seleeted by the Committe, from which eiglit numes shiould be cliosen by the Club, by ballot. The amendment prevailed after some disens- gion, and the Chair name F. L. Fake, B. T. Wakeman, F. C. Vierling, Levi Wing, and W. R. Page as said Committee. * KOSENBERG AND BALLARD TNDORSED. During the absence of the Committee, Charles L. Wilson introduced the following, which was adopte % Resolved, That this Cinb approve and indoree the course of Ald.

A sugpestion was made that, during the ab- serfiee of the Committee, some expréssion be had from the Club on the Gubernatorial ques- tion. CHARLES L. WILSON, being called for, said his position was well understood. | He had his personal rre!en:nccs, but he would not be swayed by them against any other candidate. He was opposed to in- structing the delegates from the ward, but individually the heartily indorsed the Hon. S. M. Cullom. [Applause. ‘“HORSE" EDDY wn:dgg lnl\;'gr gfleCuflaoslal and hilx&\sclf. He re- g veridge an old hypocrit and took mno stock in !uchypome& It mattered not what this or any other ward did, Cullom would be the nom- inec of the Republican party. [Applause]. He was fn favor of Bristow for Preside ent, and Dr. THarrison, of Indiana, as Vice-President, and to 1his end Intended to attempt the organization of a Bristow Club at the next meeting of the Club. At this juncture the Committec returned and reported as follows: C.;L. Wilson, Elliott An- thony, H. W. Jackson, W. H. Turner, Sasmuel Bliss, W. S. Babeock, A. E. Ebert, William Curd, Thomas Bevan, A. L. _Gay, E. 8. Pike, John W. McGenniss, F. C. Vierling, R. M. Mitchell, Henry Bonn, and Jasper Hoisington. THE DELEGATES. ‘The report was accepted and adopted, and, on motion of Dr. Smith, the Club procecded to select eight of the names as delegates to be voted for at the Hr{mnfloe, resulting as follows: C. L. Wilson, Elliott Anthony, W. H. Jackson, ‘W. H. Turner, Samuel Bliss, Dr. Thomas Bevan, F. C. Vierling, and R. M. Mitchell. The sclection was then ratified by a unani- mous vote. Judge Bradwell was called to give some ex- pression on the Gubernatorial question, but he preferred not to commit himself. CULLOM. uDr. Bevan fntroduced the following resolf- on: Resolved, That it is the zense of thj g that sxun:di M. Cullom ie the choice of &’e 'fi?‘;’:’z’fi licans of the Second Ward for the officeaf Gov- ernor. Dr. Smith was opposed to the resolutior ‘which, be said amounted to instructing the del’;'- gates. Dr. Hammill was opposed to the resolution, and this brought Judge Bradwell to his fest to say that he was not friendly to Mr. Cullom, and that he was. o;;gcsed to instructing the delegates. Dr. Bevan said it was not his purpose to secure 8 pledged delegation to Sprin d at&rfggn to mg:nnmre gl erdfi:!’i:fia%u §fyl 4 again reading it i B. 7. Wekeman wes opposed to the resolution, and moved that it be laid on the table. Thelxxnnul.iuu to table was lost by a close vote, 18 to 19. 2 Mr. McGenniss was glad that the resolution had not been tabled, for the reason that he de- sired to be heard. Ife was in favor of Ar. Cullom, but opposed to instructing delegates or duing anything that wonld have the semblance of instructing. He would support for President whoever might be nominated 2t Cincinnatd. Dr. Bevan eaid his resolution had accomplish- ed fts purpose, and he withdrew it, which was ranted. g Mr. Eddy protested, and offered the resolu- tion again as an original motion, but it was tabled’ by an almost unanimous vote. THE CITY PINANCES. Mr. Fake said he was in favor of instructing the Aldermen of the ward, while instructions were tho order of the day, to take some st?s. by ordinance or otherswise, to have the condition o% the city fioances thoroughly examined at once, with a view to getting at the true status of To carry out. Mr. Fake's ideas, Mr. Anthony submitted the following, which was adopted: Reesolved, 'That the Common Council be request- eid to bave fome competent accountant examine, at once, uH of tie bookgof the varions depfirtmnnu'. to ascertain what has become of the people’s money. The meeting then adjourned. MINOR MATTERS. THE PIFTH WARD. The Fifth Ward Republican Clab passed a res- olution at its last mecting that the judges of election and H. Wolff, the Secretary of the Club, should be the Registry Committee, whose uty it is to sit from 7:30 to 9 o'clock Saturday, May 13, at 1016 South Halsted street; Monday eveninig, May 15, at Oldenburg’s Hall, corner of Twenty-first street aud Wentworth avenue; and Wednesday evening, May 17, at Mergenthaler’s Hall, corner of Twenty-seventh street and Went- Worth avenue, toreceive the names of all Re- Puhlican voters in the ward, in order to prevent llegnl voting and ballot-box stuffing at the com- ing Kflmm Tor the election of delegates to the Cook County Conventlon, to e held May 20. Natm: but registered citizens will be entitled to vote. NEW YOREK. TILDEN AND TAMDMANY. Special Dispasch o The Tritnane. NEew Yorg, May 12.—Considerable excitement has followed the publication in the Express, of this city, of an article which is a very plain in- timation that the delcgation to St. Louis will not feel itself bound to give more than a com- plimentary vote to Gov. Tilden. The Ezpress has lately become the organ of Tammany Hall, as direeted by John Kelly, and the article is construed to mesn very plainly that Mr. Kelly is not intending to support Gov. Tilden. This is not a new revelation to Mr. Tilden, and it was only by making overtures to the Canal Ring, which he has been fighting for the last two years, that he was enabled to get the delegation balf-pledged to him. But the coalition with the Canal Riog is not be- lieved to be a sincere one. They will not lose an opportunity to injure Mr. Tilden if they get one. With both the Canal Riug and Tammany opposed, it is utterly impossible for Mr. Tilden to carry thie State of- New York as ‘against any good candidate of the Republicans. Possibly he coutd_beat Conkling, but either Blaine, Bris- tow, or Washburne would unquestionably carr the State aeainst him. The Ezpress to-day fol- lows up its first article with others of the same tenor. It is_understood here that Kelly is for Hendricks. He went West some wecks ago and spent several days with Hendricks, and those in his secrets state that he is positively committed to Hendricks. BLACKBALLING ERISTOW. The last social excitement in club Iife is the blackballing of Sceretary Bristow at the Union League Club. The motive seems to have been cntirely of a political character, and reflects cater disgrace on the Club than on the Sccre- tary. The Custom-House Ring here has been very active all day in denying that any of its principal members were engaged in this disrep- utable affalr. 5 70 the Western Assoctated Press. New Yonrs, May 12—The Union League Club had a special meeting last evening for the election of new members. Among the names proposed was that of Secretary Bristow. There were 118 votes cast for Bristow; and 12 black- balls. Immediately after the result was made known the wildest commotion ensued. Every man jumped to his feet and exclaimed against the vote, at the same time protesting that he had no hand in the plot to defeat the election of the Secretary of the Treasury. The blackballing was not the result of any goliual opposition to Bristow, but was causcd v personal fecling, Two members of the Tub, in the sugar business, felt agarieved by some decision of the Sccretary of the Treasury, and they had worked t& sccure enough black balls for his rejection. There was a strong feel- ing of indignation in the Club over the matter, :iv.:‘lmcasum will be taken to reverse the de- on. MISCELLANEOUS. WASHINGTON ITEMS. Special Dispatch to The Tribune. WasHiNGTos, D. C., May 12.—The Demo- cratic leaders here have about come to an agree- ment to recommend that the two-thirds rule be ebolished for all conventions after that at St. Louis. The objection to proposing {ts immedi- ate abolition is that it might be urged that the change was made in the interest of some candi- date. The Democratic Congressional and the Local Committee met to-day. It was decided that Hiester Clymer should spend the summer in Washington as the represcntative of the Con- gressional Committee. Special Dispasch to e Tribine. a c} u 8t. Louis, Mo., May 12.—The aot-Bristow Republicans of this city assert that they are in ion of a letter from Bristow explaining ignation of Jhis office of Colonel in the army, the reason assigned therefor being the en- listment of colored troops, he declaring that he would not fight in an army where there were negro soldicrs. Thelr plan is to hold the letter until the Cindnnati Convention meets, and then ‘bring it out as sn explosive. JISSOURI INPLATIONTSTS. 8.
