Spectal Duupateh to The Chicago Tribune, St. Paur, Mion, June 4.—Belng asked what action Congress would tuke m the mat- ter of rofunding, Senator Windom says: “1 have no means of knowing, It seems hurdly probable, however, that an effort will tic nade to refund the bonds at a lower rate than 4g por cent, unless Congress shall au- thorize a bond te run at least fifteen years, and Lwhlespliin why IT think so, As the 31g percents are all the time subject to pay- mont from the surplus revente, It would cost the Government more to refund at Sper cont for ton years, Assuming that tho + per cents shall all bo’ paid in ten yenrs, the average length of timo they would rin would be five years. ‘Three and one-half per cent for yo years Is equal to 174 per cent, whereas 3 per cont for ten yours 1s equal to 80 por cent. ‘Thus, you ean easily see, It ls better for the Government to keep the bonds within call at 3/4, paying thom from the surplus revenues, than it would bo to Issue a bon for ten years at 3 pan cont. Besides, if nlt these bonds should a placed at porvent for ten years, no part of the public debt could bo reached until 1891, and consequently no reduction could beymnde upon it.” © What are the relations of the present Cabloot among its members and toward the President?” “Cho relations of the Cabinet are most harmontous, and have been such fram the bogluning of the present Administration, all reports of newspupur correspondents and protended wiseneres to the contrary. not- wit! tend lan There ts not, nor has there been, the slightest Jar or diseord, but all woves pleasantly and without friction, Gun, Gorfeld js most vmphatioally Prosident In ovary sense of the word, and eneh and every head of Department attends and Is expeeted to attond atrletly to the bustness of that De- partinunt and to that alone.” Mr, Wiulom spoke Ue above sentences yory warnestly and evidently with much fuel- LK ENED ba A RELIGIOUS REVIVAL, Spectal Dispatch to The Chteaga ‘dvibune, INpraNavoiis, Ind, June 5.—Tho revival services conducted the past ten weeks by the Kev, Thoms Unrrison at Roberts’ Park AL, E, Church have been very remarkable In their results, and to-night 1,013 conversions ad been reached, In ntmost every church in the elty also revival work 1s progressing, ua the result of which much rellxious ene thustisin has beon produced, | Memorial Presbyterian Ohurch, the Rey, H.
