Sent To Yorktown.—The Secretary of the Treasury has directed that the revenue steamers Hamilton, at Philadelphia, Colfax, at Wilming- ton, N.C., and Ewing, at Baltimore, proceed to Yorktown and take part in the centennial cele- bration. The Ewing will probably accompany the escort of the French guests, which leaves Washington for Yorktown on the evening of the 17th inst. Waurre House IMproveMENTS.—Col. Rockwell expresses the opinion that what will be probably bedone by order of Congress to improvethe sani- tary condition of the White House, will be to tear out most, if not all, the inner walla, and rebuild practically on the same plan as regards the order of the rooms, but introducing man; improvements essential to health and cleanli- ness, hoping effectually to rid the house of ver- min. REDEEMING THE 3!¢ Per Cents.—Up to noon to-day there had been about 350,000 of 314 per cent bonds received for redemption under the notice of Secretary Windom toredeem $5,000,000 of the bonds embodied in the 105th call on and after Monday next. Should there be more than $5,000,000 of the bonds offered, it is quite prob- able that the redemptions will be made pro rata in a similar manner to that followed in purchas- ing the $2,000,000 weekly in New York. Gey. W. S. Hancock is expected to arrive in the city this afternoon en route to Yorktown, where he will take command of all the military arrangements. TREASURER GILFILLAN’S DISPATCHES ABOUT THE On10 ELEctioN.—Treasurer Gilfillan last night received a dispatch from Chairman Nash of the Ohio republican state central committee, dated at Columbus, saying: “Returns show now Foster's majority ten thousand.” Also one from G. A. Basset, also dated Columbus, saying: “Twenty-three hundred precincts in state. Returns from 130 precinctsshow net gain of 180. Foster's plurality estimated at 15,000.” THE PRESIDENT remained quietly at Senator Jones’ residence on Capitol Hill to-day. At 11 o'clock Secretary Kirkwood and the heads of the several bureaus of the Interior depart- ment called and paid their respects. Quite a number of Senators also called. Corn COUNTERFEITERS ARRESTED.—An agent of the secret service division telegraphs the ar- rest yesterday at Guthrie, Ky., of Newton H. McRae, Wm. L. Tindle and J. D. Duffel, for dealing in counterfeit silver coin. One hun- dred and thirty counterteit silver dollars were found in Dutfel’s possession. They were all heavily armed and resisted desperately. Tne Tora ABSENCE of any sign of mourning in the Senate chamber, except the crape drapng on the chair of the late Senator Burgside, causes much comment. The House of Representatives is quite elaborately draped and the Supreme Court and rotunda also are still wearing their mourning, but the outer doors of the Senate chamber only have biack festoonsabove them. = COMMITTEE Mr. Edmunds’ resolution int enate committees be adopted, it would be possible for Mr. Bayard, who is authorized to fill the vacan- cies existing by reason of the dvath of Senator Burnside and the resignation of Senators Conk- ling and Platt, to give very important places to democratic Senators, and to change the political complexion of several of the principal commit- tees, Senator Burnside was chairinan of foreign relations committee and Senator Conkling was second on it. One democrat could be appoint- ed on this committee and one of the new Sena- tors, but this would make it a democratic com- mittee. Senator Platt was on the finance com- mittee, Senator Burnside on military aflairs,Sen- ator Conkling on judiciary. Thes¢ could all be given to democrats, leaving Senator Piatt’s va— cancy on post offices, Senator Burnside’s on ed- ueation, and Senator Coukling’s on engrossed bills for the new Senators.

Talk About the Cabinet, and Other Coming, Changes. If the President has decided upon a Cabinet, he keeps the secret well. The last gossip is that ex-Senator Boutwell, of Massachusetts, is to be Attorney-General, and that ex-Gov. Mor- gan, of New York, has at his disposal the ac- ceptance of the Treasury portfolio. It is rumored that- ex-Senator Conkling is in "New York to prevail upon Gov. Morgan to accept. The changes in the Cabinet, it is further said, will depend altogether on such acceptance or declination. Secretary Blaine’s friends now say he will remain in the Cabinet until December, at least. It is not improbable. that Postmaster General James will remain in the Cabinet until the star route prosecutions are closed. The Indiana delegation now in the city are said to be pressing Judge Greshman and John C. New tor Cabinet portfolios. Mr. Frank Hatton, of the Burlington Havokeye, will probably be made first assistant postmaster ee. During the lifetime of President Gar- eld General Arthur warmly recommended Hat- ton for this place. The Pennsylvanians are endeavoring to get up a boom for ex-Congressman Packer, of Penn- ylvania, for the Postmaster Generalship. A Wisconsin delegation is still active at work ing the claims of ex-Senator Howe for Cab- Secretary ‘Kitkwood will, no doubt, be rl will, no dou vided for suitably.

The Standing Committees Question Discussed— An International Inquiry, etc. p After the reading of the journal, Mr. Kellogg offered a resolution calling on the Secretary of State for all papers on file in his department re- lating to the seizure of one Vincenzo Rebello, an Italian, in the city of New Orleans in June 1881, by one James Mooney; also all papers re- lating to the subsequent extradition of said Vincenzo Rebello. Mr. Edmunds asked thatthe resolution lie over for one day under the rule. It should, he thought, be addressed to the Pre- sident, as it might include in its provisions some diplomatic papers between the two govern- ments. The resolution was laid over. Mr. Edmunds then called up his resolution continuing for the present session the standing committees of the Senate as constituted at the last session. Mr. Garland hoped that the resolution would not be pressed until somecommunicationshould have been received from the President. There was no necessity for appointing all the commit- tees, as there would be nothing for half of them to do, and they could only live during the life- time of this session. He was utterly indifferent as to whether the committees were divided or not, but he thought that for the purposes of this session only such committees should be ap- pointed as there was work for. Mr. Edmunds stated that it was the invariable practice to bring in a resolution similar to the one he had submitted. He was not unmindful of the fact that now the political strength ofthis body was in the neighborhood of an equipoise— there or thereabouts—but he thought that for the purpose of disposing of the executive busi- ness (and he hoped it could be disposed of by Saturday or Monday) to go into the question of the reorganization of the committees on an equality as to chairmanships, would be a tri work. However, he would not press this reso- lution at present. A message was received from the President transmitting a number of nominations. Also, a message transmitting a communication from the Secretary of State giving the text in both the English and French languages of the proceedings of the International Sanitary Con- ference, held at Washington in the early part of 1881. The Senate then, at 12:20, went into executive session. When the doors were reopened, Mr. Anthony presented joint resolution of the Providence,R.1., city council relative to the death of Ambrose E. Burnside, and it was laid upon the table. The Senate then, at 12:40, adjourned. THE EXECUTIVE SESSION of the Senate lasted but a few minutes. No busi- ness was transacted other than to lay the nomi- nations which had been received from the Presi- dent upon the table, to await reference to ap- propriate committees, when they are organ- ized. ——__—_-es—_____ The Senate Caucuses To-day. THE DEMOCRATS AND THE STANDING COMMIT- . TEKS. ‘The democratic caucus this morning covered a good deal of ground in talk, but did very little business. nator Edmunds’ resolution to re- appoint the standing committees of last session, with the existing vacancies filled by the presi- dent of the Senate, was discussed, and it was decided to moye to lay it on the table, or to de- fer its consideration until the messages from the President should be received; that then the Sen- ate would know what business it will have be- fo and could see what committees would be necessary, and these committees could be ap- pointed. The matter of electing a Secretary was also considered, but no conclusion was reached. It was suggested that It would be better to make Chief Clerk Shober acting secretary until cular session, but the caucus adjourned, ing the question in abeyance. The democratic caucus remained in session about an hour this afternoon after the Senate adjourned, discussing the Edmund’s resolution for the appointment of standing committees. Senator Garland was directed to report an amendment to the resolution providing for the appointment of certain specified committees which the nomination of the President show to be necessary. The list of committees to be pro- posed embraces about ten, including the post office, Indian, commerce and others, to which the nominations of the Presi- dent, in the natural order of business, would have to be referred. Mr. Garland’s amendment will specifically declare that the com- mittees to be proposed are to be appointed for this special session only. THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS decided to press the Edmunds resolution. The subject of proposing Senator Davis as president pro tempore to displace Senator Bayard was talked over freely and informally. ‘The caucus azteed to support David Davis by a large majorit: ee Important Nominations Sent in To-da; The President sent the following nominations to the Senate to-day: Wim.

Mr. Chapin Brown, of the committee on teach- ers, had an interview this morning with Auditor Vinson in relation to the pay rolls of the teach- ers which were not approved by the auditor. The result of the consultation was an agreement as to how the rolls should be amended to make them comply with the laws near as possible. if is patie that by Saturday the teachers will e paid. SecrETary Kirkwoop, accompanied by As- sistant Secretary Bell andall theheads of bureaus of the Interior department, called on President Arthur to-day in a body, topay their respects. Tere was 4 Lanovip Ar about the depart- ments to-day. Most of the clerks went over to Baltimore yesterday afternoon or last evening, and, not getting back until an early hour this morning, were so worn out that they did not take much interest in their work. Avotner Suir Acarnst Cart, HowGaTr.— Assistant U.S. District Attorney Wallace, uf New York, yesterday commenced a new action against Henry W. Howgate, late officer of signal service, for. the recovery of $25,000, and obtained an order from Jude Brownin the U.S. district court to attach certain shares of Western Union stock 1eld by Howgate, and also a Minnesota, further order to se rs on himin Washington. een oe Pee Telegrams to The Star.

Atpany, N.Y., October 12.--The Tammany delegation will leave for New York at 3 o'clock. |. The weather is cold and rather bleak. The at- tendance in the gallery and on the stage is much thinner than yesterday or last night. Printed circulars, signed by the executive committee of the Young Men’s Democratic Club, of Brooklyn, have been distributed among the delegates, ad- dressed to the Kings county deputation and to the members ofthe convention, strongly oppos- ing any compromise with Tammany, and urging that their exclusion will strengthen rather than weaken the democratic party of New York. TO-DAY'S SESSION OF THE CONVENTION. Mr. Hill called the convention to order at 10:25, and announced that the first business would be the report of the committee on con- tested seats. Mr. Peckham, from the commit- tee on credentials, reported the contests which had been considered and the decision of the com- mittee. When the decision in favor of the New York county democracy was announced there was some cheering, but not very much. Mr. Peckham concluded by moving tlie adoption of the report, and asked for the previous ques There was no opposition, and the report was unanimously carried. In considering the contest between the tions from the county of New York the committee heard from all three of the delega- tions; all that could be said was desired to be said on the part of the gentlemen representing these different organizations. After that hear- ing the committee, by an unanimous vote de- cided that the gentlemen now occupying seats in this convention on the preliminary roll were entitied to permanent seats by virture of their regularity as delegates from the count; He had been instructed in moving the adoption of this report to call for the previous question. PERMANENT ORGANIZATION. Mr. Halliday, from the committee on perma- nent organization, presented the committee's report. 2 The name of Erastus Brooks for permanent chairman was received withapplause. ‘The report was adopted without dissent, and Mr. Brooks, on being escorted to the chalr, addressed the convention at considerable length. ADDRESS OF ERASTUS BROOKS. After expressing abhorrence at the crime which aaa depeved the country of its President, he said: “It is impossible to forget at the first meeting of the democrats of this state in state convention since the defeat of our national standard bearer that his vote in November last was some thousands in excess of the vote of the inaugurated President; nor can it escape our memories that in the canvass of 1876 a distin- guished citizen of our own commonwealth was made President by a constitutional election, both in form and substance, and by a numerical majority in excess of a quarter of a million of | votes.” He said it becomes the democratic voters of this state neither to forget the past nor to forgive an offense which practically disfran- chised two states of our Union and thousan American citizens in order to make a man Fresi- dent who had received neither a constitutional vote nor an honest election. The present time is propitious, in this state, at least, of restoring power and responsibility to the democratic party. He declared democrati¢ principles, in brief, to be: Honest elections; honest men in office: honest money for the people, with gold and silveras the only certain standard of value; a tariff for revenue which. while it affords all necessary means for the liberal support of the zovernment, paying all its debts and meeting all its obliza- tions, gives ample protection to every great interest in the country; free ships upon the seas, by the restoration ‘of that American com- merce lost to us by the follies of legislature and home rule for our cities, and as far as possible in our towns and counties. In the name of right, ustice and liberty we also demand a diminution of that central power in the federal government which makes states and people the servants of federal patronage and power. Reviewing the course of the republican party during thetwenty years in which it had held power he commented upon its extravagance and the exposures of fraud and corruption which had marked its career, The star route swindles had cost the government more than a million of dollars in unnecessary taxation each year. He referred to the attempted reduction of appropriations by democratic Senators. In one session they did succeed in. reducing the appropriations forty nillions of doliars. “In this state when in power during five years of control democratic lestisla- tion reduced the state debt from fifty-one mil- lions to nine millions of dollars and the state taxes from sixteen to seven qmillions. ‘At the conclusion of Mr. Brooks’ speech Mr. P. B. Olney, on behalf of the committee on res- olutions, presented a “declaration of prin- ciples.” —_.__. The Ohio Election. THE REPUBLICANS DOING BETTER THAN EXPECTED. Cnicaco, October 12.—A Times Columbus, 0., special says: The temperance vote will reach 15,000 or 16,000, more than double that of any other election. The vote is over 100,000 si what it was one year ago. Returns ha in slowly, on account of local complications aud the vast amount of scratching done, but out of 2,232 precincts in the state one-fourth are au- thentically heard from, showinga net democratic gain of 500. This will not change the result much from that of last October. Republicans claim the state for Fosier by 15,000, and demo- crats concede his election over Bookwalter by 10,000. Republicans claim both branche of the legislature by a close shave. The result is better than the republicans expected, and is looked on as a final blow to temperance politics in this state.

New York, Oct. 12.—The Post's finan arti- cle (1:40 p.m. edition) says: The stock ex- change markets are dull to-day. In the early transactions there was considerable depression, and the prices of stocks after opening yal per cent lower than they closed yesterday, further declined 3<ally per cent. turned, and under the lead of Manhattan Eleva- ted, which was advanced 3%{ per cent to 33%, the general list of stocks has advanced Ya 15¢ above the lowest prices of the morning. and ‘as we write the market is strong. The stocks, which were weakest in the early dealings. fell to the following figures: Milwaukee and St. Paul to 106; Canada Southern to 55%{:; Ohio and Mis- souri to 42%/; Denver and Rio Grande to 78%, and Metropolitan Elevated to 84. The strongest stocks in the advance, after Manhattan, were Lake Shore to 118; Missouri Pacific to 10434; Western Union to 84!¢; Erie to 441/; Central Pacific to 92%; Reading to 644, and Delaware and Lackawanna to 1223/. ‘he tem- per of speculation is “bearish.” and the result is that a large “short interest” is kept in | the market, and the forcing of thisto cover from time to time makes the principal demand for stocks. The prospect of atleast full rates for money and the unsettled condition of trunk Ine railroad affairs deter the public from buying stocks. United States bonds are }< lower for extended sixes and thefours. Railroad invest- ments are slowly yielding in price, while speca- lative bonds are hard to ‘sell except at an important concession in quotations. The rate for call loans is 6 per cent, and in ex- ceptional cases commissions of 1-6421-32 per day are paid. Time loans are 5 per cent and up- wards, few being under 6 per cent. Prime mer- cantile paper is 6a7 per cent. The Treasury has not yet, so far as we hear, shown an intention to pay for the $5,000,000 of bonds which it offers to redeem on and after next Monday at New York instead of at Washington. The sub-treasury was this a.m. debtor at the clearing house $1,250,000. This represents the bulk ot money coming into the loan market. The shipments of currency to the West continue large. and those to the south are increasing; these latter will be heaviest in November and December. The market for foreign exchange is dull. THE ASSASSIN NOT TO BE BRO! PROBABLY FOR A DAY OR TWO. “He will not be arraigned to-day,” was about all Col. Corkhill would say when asked thisnoon by a Star reporter as to the arraignment of Gui- teau. ‘Further than that you will have to look out for yourself.” As no notice has yet been served on Mr. Scoville, Guiteau’s counsel, it is thought that the arraignment willnot take place to-morrow either. “We would have a crowd here so big,” said Col. Corkhill, ‘if we made | public announcement of the time that we could not get the prisoner near thecourt house. You can rest assured the reporters will be here. It would be hard to find a time when they are not here now-a-days.” A NOTE FROM SCOVILLE. Col. Corkhill was engaged all the morning in the Bergevin trial. Scoville called to see him, and left the following note: OctoseER 12, 1881, 10 a. M. Dear Sir:—I will attend on notice of Guiteau’s arraignment at any time, and think it may as well be soon now as to wait longer. Please send alineto my room 304 Indiana avenue, or let me know otherwise when to appear and oblige, yours truly, GEORGE SCOVILLE. |. Corkhill had not written a reply to this note this afternoon. Another evidence perhaps that the government will not arraign Guitean to-morrow. WHAT COL. CORKHILL THINKS. Col. Corkhill does not think that ft is neces- sary to wait two days after the indictment was served on the prisoner before arraigning him. A ee of this kind was raised by the defence in ae ite and the court ruled that such notice was not necessary, the arraignment not being considered a part of the trial. As a mat- ter of precaution, however, it is at least two days will ha GUITEAU COMPLAINS OF MALARIA. Meanwhile Guitean is passing his time ly in Jail.

Guiteau remarked that he was not feeling well. The question was asked, “will you be able to go to court to-morrow?” and he an- swered that he was too sick and would be unable to go. WHAT MR. SOOTILER SaTR. Mr. Scoville was approached by a representa- tiveof Tue Stak in the Criminal Court room this morning, where he had gone to examine the assignment for the day, and in answer to ® question of THe STaR reporter as to whether his client was to be brought into court to-day an- swered: “That I do not know.” Said the re= It is supposed by a great many that he to which Mr. Scoville responded; “I know nothing of itif he is to be,” Mr. Scoville said that he wrote to Gen. Butler night before last, but as yet had received no reply. The reporter asked: “Have you any reason to that Gen. Butler will assist you in this Mr. Scoville.—“T have not; I do not go around the streets seeking assistance. I have applied to one or two eminent lawyers; the last one was Gen. Butler. If he doesnot assist me, I do not know what my next step will be, and I shall wait until I hear from him before 1 determine on it.” Reporter. was stated in the papers the other day.that you had spoken to Mr.R.T_ Merrick, and that he had said other engagements pre- vented him taking part in the case; but, if the question of jurisdiction was raised he would as- sist in the argument.” Mr. S.—“Yes, that ts correct.” “Do you Intend to raise that question?” “Weill, [have been advised by eminent law- yers all over the country to make every point there is in the case: and in addition, there are one or two United States judges, high up, who have counselled me to do the same thing. Then my client nas directed me to make a on every question there Is in the case. “In relation to the threatening letter that you Teceived, have you any reason for supposing it to be genuine?® “It is genuine, written by some fool. That has no effect on ine; nor would a dozen of the same kind have. I have no apprehension that Guiteau will be molested, and | am sure that I shail not be.” | 8 'Y POINT ON THE CASE TO BE BROUGHT ovr. | In addition to the statement made by Scoville j that he has been advised to make all the points | there are in the case, it Is understood that the | judges of the District courts desire that every point in the case may be fully presented to the court when the case comes ¢ trial, and that there may be a full and free argument. oe The Star Route Cases, COUNSEL DO NOT AGREE AS TO A DAY POR THR ARGUMENTS, The counsel for Brady and others, against whom there has been filed, in the Criminal Court, an information charging conspiracy served on the counsel of the go of the motion to quash the information (made yesterday morning.) and of their afidavit, with the following notices ‘lease take notice that on Friday, the 14th day of October, at the opening of the court on that day, or as soon thereafter as counsel can be heard, we shall call up for argument and final disposition the motion to rescind the order here- in made on the 30th day of September last, and tostrike the information from the files of the court.

Casey, on the charge of assault with intent to kill Martha A. Bergevin in April last by shooting her was resumed. Several witnesses having been examined for the defence as to character, the accused took the stand.

After arguments the case was submitted to the Jury at 2:25 o'clock. During the trial of Casey to-day, Mr. Charles Pelham as counsel, filed a divorce for Peter P. Bergevin against Martha A.

The Sun, in speaking of the Cadets, said that they were favorably commented upon by all, but that the Capital City Guards were more noticeable in their dark blue uniforms with gold trimmings and shakos, and that their marching was as good as any in the line. Thisis a high compliment for the Guards, marching, ax they did, behind the celebrated 5th Maryland regi- ment. ices A Ware BURGLAR AND 4 BLack OnE.—In the Police Court to-day a middle-aged colo! man, named George E.
