The time of the meeting was taken up by the usual busitess, and nothing of importauce was done. Past Grand Chancellors W. D. Kennedy, D. A. Cashman, and B.C.

Mr. Charies Clark presided. A number of new mem- bers was admitted, and the eveging was taken up with the regular business of the Union. The objcet of this organization, which is a compara- tively new one, is to inaugurate a strike in the near future for a reduction of the number of working hours. At present they are expected to put in from fifteen to eighteen hours a day in the bakeries, and they propose to unite and re- monstrate with their empfoyers. Latrerr BR, of the old First Mlinois Artillery held a reunion last evening at the Grand Pacific. Battery B, after mature consideration. decided that reporters could not be admitted to the solemn deliberations of this august body. It ap- peared, however, that there wus a little meeting of the organization, which was formed im- mediately after the close of the War and-has Jain dormant ever since. At this meeting’ a re- port. of 2 committe which was sent down South to collect the remains of the boys who fell in the War was presented and a brief address was read by Capt. Rumsey. A supper and reunion tol- lowed. THERE came up yesterday afternoon before Justice Hudson the case of Policeman Wester- baugh, of the Lincoln Park police, and Sergeant Deshon, of the same force, who were ch: d with assaulting L. D. Webster on the ice at Lincoln Park some weeks ago. After list ig to the testimony of a number of witnesses, the Justice fined ‘Westerbaugh $5, and gave the Sergeant a severe reprimand. He told him that. his con- duct was unauthorized OF, the law. though he doubtless thought he scted within the scope of his authority. The use of words, no matter how harsh, was not suificient to justify an officer in laying hands upor a citizen. [ ‘THE citizens of the WestSide have been much annoyed by a man who bas been representing himself as foreman of the Pullman Car Works, One day he would call and express him- self as very anxious to sce the proprietor of “the house. saying that he was anxious to collect asmail bill. He would then go next door and desire to ell a furniture polish, always making some excuse for his very slouchy appearance. He managed to secure a great many names by inquiry, and always stated that some neighbor or well-known person bad sent him. The mun has been branded 46 2 most consummate liar, and there are those who believe that he is studying up premises for the purpose of theft. People should look out for him, as he is undoubtedly a fraud. ‘The Foundlings’ Home still maintains its hold on the generous feelings of our charitable peo- Pie. us is evidenced by the February number of ‘aith's Record, the organ of the institution. The Home entered on the new year with fifty-six babies and forty adults. An idea of the daily experience can be gained from the following clipping from the diary published in the Record: “ Friday, 10th.—Enrly this morning a basket was found at the door, and, sitting in it, enjoying her nursing-bottle, was a beautiful little girl with such great, Instrous eyes, They seem full of wogder at ‘ber new surroundings when the bns- ef’ was brought into the nursery. Another waif was brousht in to-night, and, still later, an- other.” The visiting day at the Home is Tues- duy, from ll a. mm. 4 p. m. A MAss-MEETING of plasterers was held at Maskell Hali Inst evening to tke steps towards strengthening the Union already existing. To this end all‘tines previously imposed were re- mutted, and those upon whom the ban of expul- sion rested, and whoare known in Union par- lance as scabs, were allowed to again become members on payment of their initiation fees. Before going into executive session, all thuse present unreconstructed were invited to join the Eniun, and the invitation was accepted by all save bulf a dozen, who were suid to be men employed on the new Custom-House. The Union hus fixed the rate at which plasterers shali work in 1890 at $2.50 per day, but it is claimed that this is frequently cut under by Union men, and measures are to be taken in future to see that a stop is put to this. Another mass-meeting will probably be held in the same hall next Saturday evening. Aap dog, running at large and biting at anything that came in his way, was the oc- casion of considerable excitement on _ the. North Side yesterday. The brute was a large Newfoundland; was owned by Charles Em- merich, of No. ‘l street, and was finally’ run oe and killed with by 8 Pp: in the Wel sTrect carbarn. are the persons bitten so faras beard Biupps, aged 19, Jeft hand bitten; resides at No. 541 Sophia street.

The table was laid in Parlor , and the magnificently-furnished room was embellished with the rarest of tropical plants, flowers, etc, Among those Pispent, were H. K. Buell, W. H. Burchard, E. M. Phelps, H. J. Mac- farland. R. Rosenthal, E. F, Dyke, W. D. Brooks, Isnac Greenfelder, C..H. Fargo, S. M. Fargo, I. Schnadig, J. M. Schnadig, M.D. Shay, J. T.Mc- Auley, H: 5. Gates, John Handford. There were ‘no tonsts in regular order, but the reports of officers were presented, including that of Secretary McAuley. There were some funny eeches, and then the election of officers for the ensuing year took place, which result as follows: Président, B. M. Phelps; Vice-Presi- dent, Isaac Greensfelder; Secretary and Treas- urer, J.D. McAuley. ‘The party broke up about Horclock, after amost excellent and enjoyable me. gre : ‘Tre .-"* Sons of Virginia ” met last night at the Grand Pacific, con B. Buford inthe chair. The resignation of Gwynn Garnett, Secretary, ‘was received and accepted, and a committee of will recommend that the property at the page Monroe street and the river be given for their occupancy ata nominal rent. He is of the opinion that in the passage of the ordinance there were a great many policy votes cast, and thinks it will detrimental to the regiment to have the ordinance go into effect. If the veto ‘comes it will place certain Aldermen in an awk- ward position, and he wants to see them come to the front. * SUPERINTENDENT KIRKLAND yesterday made an examination of the walls of the new City-Hall in order to ascertain whether or not the cracking of the inner walls was the result of the settling o| the building. He found that the outer walls had settled three-quarters of an inch all around, which was far less than he had expected, and he is satisfied that no building in the city has better foundations. The county's side of the building, notwithstanding the piling, has settled even more. He is not yet prepared to account for the cracking of the corridor walls, and hesitates to give his theory on. the subject, for the reason that the spring thaw might upset it. Mayor BiceLow and Commissioner Gtibe! of New Haven, Conn., called upon Fire-Barsh: Swenie yesterday. They were here looking up our fire-protection, and were shown all that was to be seen, and expressed themselves as highly leased. They were shown through Enginec- fouso No. 13, and how the start was made, and Capt. Bullwinkle introduced them to the mysteries of the patrol service, and they left impressed with the idea that Chicago was ahead of the world in such matters. They will pepe their observations upon their return, and if half the ideas they ined are ut d, New Haven will soon rival the best cities of the East in its Fire Department. DEFECTIVE BUILDINGS. Complaint was made yesterday that the walis of the transfer house of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad,*én Sixteenth street, were un- safe. Superintendent Kirkland atonce visited the. premises and found the objections being correct- ed, a large force being employed to cure the weak points. He examined the premises, however, and ordered the tearing down of the east and west walls, and the destruction of 100 feet of the north and 200 fect of the south walls, which is to be done,which nmounts to rebuilding the struct- ure. Complaints of, defective or insecure walls are coming in every day, and the recent cleva- tor accident has increased the number. Several ‘persons calied yesterday to complain of cracks in tho walls of their residences, and to demand an ‘examination, all of which was the result of fright, and goes to show theex- three appointed to report on the name of a fit and proper person to fill the position. The Com- mittee unanimously recommended the name of Dr. Robert L. Waller. Dr. Frank C. Edwards was nominated by a member of the’ Society. Judge Rogers and Judge Moore were named as tellers, and,a ballot being ordered, Mr. Waller was decl: elect The Committce on Mem- bership reported'in favor of the admission of twelve new members. and they were admitted accordingly. Judge Moore, on behulf of the Ex- ecutive mmitlee, reported that it had been decided to hold a banquet on the 23d ins. at the almer House. Each member of the Society would be authorized to invite. wo friends, and it was hoped that many would bring ladies. There would be toasts re- sponded to by good speakers, and a very pleas- ant time was anticipated. Members of the So- ciety would be admitted free, but for those in- vited the charge would be ¢2 per plate. Mem- bers of the Society who have not yet paid their initiation fee are requested to call upon Mr. Waller without delay. The next meeting will be held at the Palmer House Saturday evening. Tux Board of Directors of the Public Library met yesterday afternoon in their new room on the library floor, President Shorey in the chair. Applications for positions inthe library were re- ceived from two young women, and the applica- tions referred to the Administrative Committee. The Committee on Library reported in relation to the printing of the finding-lists that it was deemed advisable to omit all advertisements from the lists, as the expense would not be ma- terially lessened by their insertion, and the rec- ommendation was approved. Bidsfor the print- ing of the lists were then read, as follows: J. M, W. Jones, 5,000 copies. $510: N. B. Barlow, $815; or $785 for 4,800; Culver, Page & Hoyne, $818.75; Donnelley, Gassette & Loyd, $571. The Commit- tee were instructed to let the job at once to the Jowest responsible bidder, as the price of paper was still “ booming," and delay in_letting the contract might ennunce the cost. The Commit- tee on Rules and Regulations reported that it was deemed unadvisable to change the rule in to the renewal of books from the one at present existing. The Secretary's report for the month of January showed an expenditure of $131 for books, stationery, ete. On motion of Mr. Onahan, the purchase was ordered of two copies of the book recently published in. this city by Mr. P. T. Sherlock on the Irish land uestion, entitled “The Case Stated.” The joard then adjourned. SPILT WHEAT. ‘The woak of removing the whent at the scene of the late accident was progressing satisfacto- rily yesterday, and it is expected that all the grain that can be saved to advantage will be gotten out by Monday. All available means are being used by Messre. Munger, Wheeler & Co. to expedite the clearing-up process, and an army of men, women, and children are ably seconding their efforts in scooping into baskets and carrying off all the wheat they can when the eyes of the ‘atchmen are turned elsewhere, evidently be- lieving that “in this wheat by and by" they see the wherewithal to furnish a poor man's break- fast. The front of the mill building on Six- teenth street is being taken down, and the huze roof looks as if it would tumble at any moment. Most of the wheat to be saved is now in the bins which came down in the crash unmixed with enuinters: and is i ron condition. It is be- Heved that about 65,000 bushels have been taken nway already, which would leave about. 30,000 bushels more to be gotten out, allowing 10,000 for wastare. If what now remains standing of the ruin does not come down with a rush before Jong, appearances are deceitful. THE TOWN COLLECTORS. Mr. John M. Dunphy, the West Town Col- lector, has’ already paid tothe City Treasurer, Mr. Seipp, the sum of £97,759 0n account of the taxes of 1 to the County Treasurer, $25,000; and t) the West Park Commissioners, $3,500. Collections are moderately fair,and Mr. Dunphy has been obliged to make one levy up to date. This was in the case of the Silver Smelting Works, near Lumber and Twelfth streets. Other levies will follow if refusals to par are made. The addition by the inst Legislature of 1 per cent a month penalty on real estate after the re- turn of the books tothe County Treasurer will probably induce many to pay this year earlicr than usual. Taxpayers of South Chicago are reminded that the time for the collection of taxes—par- ticularly on personal property—is rapidly draw- ing toaclose. Although it will be a very un+ pleasant duty to perform, the Collector will en- torce the law against all delinquent taxpayers, and he gives this final warning to all who have not already eettled up their annual taxes. During the pust week Frank Niesen, Collector of North Chicago, paid to the city $13,504; to the county, 55.000; and to the Lincoln Park Commis- sioners, 6,000, on account of 1819 taxes and ecin] assessments. Mr. Niesen is now busied with the collection of -real-estate taxes and the Lincoln Park assessment. Payment to the Col- lector saves the taxpayers the penalty of 1 per cent per month and costs, which will otherwise accrue. He will return his books March 10, and in the meantime will be forced by levy and sale to collect the delinquent personal taxes. THE CITY-HALL. ‘THE Mayor issued eight pardons for the week ending yesterday. A CosmassionEn Dz Worr starts Tuesday even- ing for a short visit to his old home—Massachv- setts. ‘THE contract for planking Centre ayenue was yesterday awarded to J.P. Smith & Co., the work to be done by April 1. CosonssioNER WALLER yesterday received by ress two bricks from Milwaukee, charges un- paid. They were specimens, and ‘he does not want any more of them. ‘Tne City Treasurer yesterday received $2,456 from the Water Department, $876 from the Controller, and $12 from the City Collector. The North Side Collector paid: in $2,915, and the South Side,Collector $3,431—all in scrip. Tne employts of the Water Department yes- terday made up a purse of $199 for the bencfit of the Irish sufferers. H. F. Merritt was the only one who fniled to contribute, and_ he is also the only one in the office who has taken out a pennit to carry a revolver. The office did very we THE Finance Committee was in session yester- day, and passed upon sundry references. ‘The only thing done worthy of mention was the al- Jowance of a claim of about $40 in favorof the ex-keeper of Union Park for bears, birds, etc., which he furnished the city prior to having his successor named. AMONG the building permits issued yesterday was one to F. Kolar to ercct a two-story dwell- ing, No. 92 Wilson strect, to cost $2,000; one to Jobn A. Lomax, to erect a three-story fncto Congress strect._near Fifth avenue, to cost $24, 000; ‘one to C. Kuechicr, to erect a three-story dwelling, corner Webster avenue and Halsted street, to cost 5/0002 and ue Teas A. S. ischér, to erect a’ three-story dwelling, No. 510 West Adams street, to cost $6,000. Tne Committee on Streets and Alleys, North, met yesterday afternoon and agreed to postpone the further consideration of the improvement of Clybourn avenue for one week to enable the citizens for and aguinst it to get up petitions on the subject. ‘The petition for paving Clark street from North to Park ave- nue was placed on file, and it was ured to re- Port favorably on the ' ordinance for creating a market along Wells strect, between Eugenia and Curl streets,—that is, to allow farmers and others to sell their products from their waguns between these streets. COMMISSIONER DE WOLF anticipates consider- able trouble from the last smull-pox case. No one appears to know the source of tne infection, but the fact that the patient was around the streets twenty-four hours with his face clearly marked with the disease creates some alarm, He visited several places during the. time, and. instend of trudging to the hospital, got into a Blue Island avenue car—knowing he had the disease—and rode there. Outside of those in the car, he came into: ree ite at jeuse Gtty Persons, and it is ‘eared that he succeeded in spreading the mal- ady. Time only can tell. y ‘THe Mayor is undetermined what he will do | about the Second Regiment's occupati Lake-Front property. It is most likely, how ever, that he veto the ordinance, but if he treme sensitiveness of the people. Thereport that a: general examination of elevators was be- ing made is without foundation. Examinations are simply made as requested. THE MADISON-STREET BRIDGE. Bids were opened yesterday for rebuilding the west approach to the Madison-street bridge. The Union Foundry Works offered to do the work for $4,465; Rust & Coolidge wanted $7,300 for the same work; and the Vulcan Iron Works Com- any offered to furnish the iron alone for $3,225. No award was made, and, since the figures aro way above what they were expected to be, the prospect is that the approach will be rebuilt by the city of piles and masonry, leaving out the iron, which it seems has run the cost up so _ high. Commissioner Waller had calculated that the work could be done for $4,000, but an examination: showed yes- terday that the east approach was in as bad a condition #s the west, and that it would be econ- omy to rebuild or repair both at the same time. There is no truth whatever in the report that the approaches are absolutely “unsafe. The City Engineer says that they are as safe as they have been for six months past, and says that the pro- osed repairs were recommended not so much cnuse of the necessity of their being made at once as because of the convenience of making them in the winter season and while navigation was closed. THE COUNTY-BUILDING. THe meeting of the Jail and Jail Accounts Committee, appointed for yesterday, did not come off. Tr Committee on Charities took a trip out to Jefferson yesterday to receive the supplies at the Poor-House. Is the County Court yesterday, Samuel Pense, for use, etc. sued John Hoffmann et al. for $1,000, action being laid in trover. ‘Tae February Grand Jury will be impaneled to-morrow, and will get to work atonce. The docket is of medium size, and _is distinguishable in that there are no cases of homicide to inves- . tigate. zs Iy the matter of the city special assessments Nos. 1,725 to 1,764, Judge Fospas yesterday ap- pointed Hermann Benze, Henry “E. Hamilton, and Thomas E. Judge Commissioners to assess benefits and damages. ‘Tre Clerk of the County Board yesterday sent out 2large number of postals to persons holding county orders, desiring them to call and gettheirmoney. He has gotten tired of carry- ‘ing the amounts on the books. FEDERAL AFFAIRS. ‘Tre disbursements of gold yesterday footed up $55,000. ‘Two thousand dollars in silver were paid out at the Sub-Treasury yesterday, and$7,000 In sup- sidiary silver redeemed. SpzcLaL AGENT Hrnps left yesterday for New York under ordersfrom the Treasury Depart- ment, He will only be gone a few days. Corrector Harvey's receipts from internal revenue yesterday were: $19,492. Of this sum, spirits paid $16,223, tobacco and cigars _con- tributed $2,43!, and $648 came from beer. There were no exports. Fortow1nc is the list of dutiable goods re- ceived yesterday: Carson, Pirie & Co., 4 cases dry goods; Wilson Bros., 2 cases dry goods; Field, Leiter & Co., 27 cases dry goods; A. H. Abbott & Co., 2 cases.artists’ materials; F. I. Revell, 1 case books; Parkhurst & Wilkinson, 1500 birs iron; J. W. Butler Paper Company, 43 bundies paper. Collections, $4,514. Tnx work on the new Government Buildin; has so fur progressed that it was yesterday foun necessary to lay off about 100 laborers, leaving only about 150 directly in the employ of the Superintendent. ‘The contractors are working heavy gangs of men, and are pushing the work in every department. The work of paving the Governinent half of the surrounding streets will probably not be commenced until after the opening of navigation, so that the contractors ean bring the stone here by water. ‘Tne petitions which have been put in. circula- throughout the West asking for the favorable consideration of the Aldrich Immediate Trans- Rortation bill now in the hands of the Ways and Means Committee have been returned very generously supplicd with signa- tures. ‘The petitioners are the leading business firms in the cites interested, and represent mill- ions of capital. ‘The petitions which have been returned received signers of -this class as fol- lows: Chicago, 300; Detroit, 300; St. Louis, 250; St. Paul. 75: Toledo, 100; Evansville, 100; Cleve- land, 200; Cincinnati, 200; and Buffalo, 7%. Mr. Wilson left last night for Washington armed with these petitions and a multiplicity of docu- ments bearing on the case. ‘These petitions are in the form ndopted nt the importers’ meeting held at the Palmer Feb. 4, and by tho action of that meeting Mr. Wilson gocs as the accredited representative of the importing interests. He will probably now be allowed to plead his cause before the full Committee. In this city the banks and railrond companies haveunanimously signed the petitions. Wuex the case of Dr. Edward Osborne, who was arrested by the Special Agents of the Post- Office, was called before Commissioner Hoyne yesterday there was no response. Osborne’s wife subsequently put in an appearance and ex- plained that her husband had left for Canada, having been frightened by seeing bis colnbor- ers in the work of debauching the young by ob- seene literature held to the Grand Jury. Os- borne was arrested for mailing ** Olin’s Marriage Guide," and giving information us to how cer- tain disreputable drugs and appliances could b obtained through him or his: confréres,— Drs. Olin and Bates. It appears, however, that O3- borne was employed at’ $15 per week to do the dirty work, and had but little real interest in the concern. His bond was for $1,000, and was signed by Charles F. Blakely. whos abundantly responsible. His bondsman and wife say that he will return this week, and on that account the bond was not declared for- feited. Hewill probably return, plead guilty, and receive a light sentence, as he was ouly the tool of his disreputable employers. LOCAL POLITICS. THE YOUNG MEN'S REPUBLICAN CLUB for the Second Congressional District held a mecting in Carpenter Hall, No. 221 West Madison street, yesterday evening, the President of the Club, John L. Manning, in the chair. Mr, J.B. Taylor. from the Seventh Ward, re- ported that two Republican clubs had been or- ganized, and that a movement had been started to effect their consolidation. Dr. Barnes, from the Eighth Ward, reported that they had not yet organized for the spring campuign, but the drift at present seemed to be to combine with the respectable Democrats in order to elect a proper man to the City Council. He understood that a Democrat known asThree- Fingered Jack and ex-Ald. Oliver intended to run against Ald. Lawler. Mr. Lane, President of the Ninth Ward Re- publican Club, said that nothing had yet been done towards organizing for the spring cam- paign. A member from the Twelfth Ward made a similar report, intimating, however, that there was a fine crop of candidates showing up and giving promise of a lively contest for the nomi- Mr. Hutchinson, of the Thirteenth Ward, re- Ported that the ward club had held its semi- annual meeting and reorganized for the coming election. It was understood in the ward that Frank J. Smith and a Mr. Brady were candi- dates, the former gentleman being in the lead. In answer to a question, the Chair stated that e Club could have the nter Hall every turday gcning, for the rest of the season if they wanted On motion of Mr. J. L. Parish, who thought that the coming Presidential campaign was go- ing to be an wnusu: important ‘one, with the question of whether this was or was not a Nation “lease, which ‘the Corp to be settled by it, the Chair appointed Messrs. 5. L. Parish, of the Twelfth Ward: J. C. Hyde, of the Eighth Ward; and J. B. Taylor, of the Seventh Ward, a committee to draft an address to the citizens of the Second Congressional Dis- trict, asserting the gravity of the coming strug- gle and the necessity for the Republicans of the. trict to take an active part iu it. On motion of Mr. Jenkins, tho election of offi- cers was postponed until the next meeting of fhe « club, ‘which was fixed for the first Saturday Mareh, Dr. Barnes threw out the suggestion that if some political question were selected at each meeting to be discussed at the next, debates of an interesting nature would be provoked, which would help to popularize the Club. A motion prevailed that a subject for discus- sion be selected for each meeting by the Execu- tive Committee, and be announced to the mem- bere {by the Secretary in the notices of the meetings. ‘The meeting then adjourned until March 6, to meet at the same place. f e After the adjournment, an informal ballot on the Presidential question was had, which result- ed as follows: iaine, 8; Washburne, 4; Sher- man, 1; Hayes, L THE IRISH-AMERICANS. Another Irish-American Central Republican Club was started last evening in the club-room of the Grand Pacific Hotel. About fifty persons Were present. They were mainly seceders from the Maguire organization. W. 8. Dillon was se- lected to. preside. It was resolved that those resent would withdraw from the Maguire lub in consequence of the unfair and partisan treagment which’ they had re- ecived, and that they organize the Young Men’s_ Irish-American. Republican Club. Messrs. Davison, Orr, Cole, Steele, Mar- vin, and Dillon were appointed 2 Committee upon the Nomination of Olticers. A Committce ¥ on Constitution and By-Laws was also appoint- ed, and the Club adjourned until Thursday fxgnine, much enthusiasm having been mani- ‘ested, : “THE MILITIA. THE LAKE-FRONT ARMORY. The officers of the Second Regiment, the Cav- alry, and Tobey’s Battery were to have held a meeting at the Grand Pacific last evening; at least they adjourned Sunday night a week azo to meet there. Only one, however, turned up at 8 o'clock, and half an hour later there were but six on hand. No attempt was therefore made to get together in formal session and tallc “Ar- mo) The reason advanced for the absence of the others was that they had become “disgust- ed” at the attitude of Mayor Harrison regard- ing the ordinance passed by the Council authorizing the use of 100 fect north of the Exposition Building. Col. Quirk stated that the Mayor had told him that he would veto the ordinance. His reasons were that a “ permit,” with a clause requiring vaca- tion on six months’ notice, is tantamount to a oration Counsel decided the city had no right to give; also, that if he did not veto the ordinance, some property-owner on Michigan avenue would get out an injunction restraining the erection of the building, which would tie the thing up in the courts for at least two years; further, the ci desires to sell the Lake-Front to the railrond companies, and an armory there would interfere with the sale. Col. Quirk did not see what could be done. The city lot at the corner of Adams and Franklin street was altogether too small for tho three organizations. Maj. Tobey_sug- gested that an effort be made to secure Dear- born Park. It was ceded to the city, to be sure, upon condition that no buildings should be erected on it, but the city authorities might ask Congress to remove the restriction, and the of- ficers could work up a sentiment in favor of the project which might result in favoruble action. Onc of the others remarked that some one had said that tho city should buy the block between Van Buren_and Jackson streets and Third ayenue and Dearborn street, and put up an armory there. It was questioned whether the city could . legaily do this. After s0me__ more al talk, it was decided dy those present to keep up the agitation,” in the hope that “a home” would come out of it; but it was very evident that the gentlemen had little faith in a realization. HENRY GREENEBAUM. ALLEGED INJUSTICE DONE HIM. ‘Tne Tripone printed a few days ago the re- port of a sub-committce of the House Com- mittee on Banks and Banking, and its strictures on tho management of tho German National Bank of this city. have moved Henry Greene- baum to write a letter to the Chairman of the Committee, of which the folling is a copy: i ‘* CHICAGO, Feb.14.—The Hon. Abner H. Buckner, Chairman Committee on Banking and Currency, House of Representatives, Washington City, D.C.— My Dzar Sin: In the name of justice I ask your personal attention to the gross perversion of facts in the report of Mr. Price upon the evi- dence in tho investigation of the German Na- tional Bank. In referring to the testimony in reference to the books of the bank, Mr. Wash- burn’s' report in evidence says that he believes they represent the true condition of the bank. Why is this left out, and a garbled extract of his testimony used, which does gross injustice to the management? _ “Again, all the answers to my cross-interroga- tories of the expert accountant introduced by the complainants confirm the fact thatin his opinion the bookkeeping has been honestl: done, and that no transactions are concealed. How, in the name of truth, can Mr. Price, in the face of this eviderte, report n suspicion of inten- tional irregularities in bookkeeping? All the testimony in evidence disprove the assertion made in the report, ‘that I was really the man- aging, man, controlling the assets of the bank.’ Again, why parade charges of shrink- age. in assets in ‘the face of Mr. Washburn’s statement that he has traced all the assets held by tho bank at the time of its suspension, Dec. 6, 1877, into the hands of the Receiver, under date of Dec. 24, PI 5 Finally, a loss of part of the amount of $20,000 involved in a transaction had before the suspension of the bunk referred to by Mr. Flowerin his testimony is made to appearas | i occurring during the era of liquidation, and is | ii wrongfully churged to me. Permit me to appeal to your personal regard for justice and truth to secure arecommitment of the report for cor- rection. Very respectfully, i “ HENRY GREENEBAUM.” : CHICAGO HARBOR. AN IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDED. The work of closing in the south end of Chi- | 0 cago harbor, by extending the breakwater, iwill be completed by July 1,—so Capt. Lydecker, the United States Engineer in charge of the im- provement, stated toareporter. ‘There is on hand money enough saved from former ap- propriations to finish ft. Capt. Lydecker docs not regard the closing in of the south end of the harbor as perfecting: it, by any means. The ti swecp of the sea is from the northeast, and, in case of a severe storm, the waves wash over the breakwater piers, us though no such barrier existed. To render the ‘harbor a haven of safety, Capt. Lydecker has devised an outer breakwater, which will be located in such a place and be of such a solid character that the waves will make futile onslaughts ‘on it. their march to the harbor be stopped,and their force'rendered impotent. For the coming fiscal year, Capt. Lydecker, who bas charge of the harbor improvements, recommends an appropriation of $200,000 to be used in building the outside breakwater just re- ferred to, and of $50,000 to be used in dredging the harbor and kecping it of a uniform depth. He has called the attention of the Department to the fuct that the outer breakwater should be finished as soon as practicable, through justice to the immense and ever-increasing commerce of the port. The great harbor would then be of benefit, and vessels could ride at anchor in it during the most severe storm with safety. He also expressed the opinion that the worl would cost much less if appropriations be made sufli- cient to finish it in two, or at the most in three, seasons, The money will not be available until next July should the approprittion be made, as there is strong reason to belicve that it will be. ‘The exact locution of the new breakwater will have to be decided upon by 2 board of .engin- cers. Itwill lieto the north and east of the mouth of ithe harbor, and be between 5,000 and 6,000 fectlong. It will be about thirty feet wide, and its foundations will rest in about thirty-five feet of water. Capt. Lydecker is unable to state how high it will be above the water. The total cost of completing this necessury and important work will be in the neighborhood of $500,000. —————— SUBURBAN. EVANSTON.

Itis astriking fact in the statement by this Company that its surplus over ail liabilities on a4 percent interest reserve is over three million dollars, and if we take 444 per cent interest, the standard held by New York, the surplus amounts to over four million dollars, or nearly one-quarter of its assets, and all belonging to its policyholders.
