McPherson vs. Post. THE SECRETARY OF THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE ANSWERS THE STATEMENTS OF THE SECRETARY OF THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTER, Secretary McPherson, of the republican con- gressional committee, has written a letter to Secre- tary Geo. A. Post, of the democratic congressional committee, in which he takes the latter to task for the attack in his speech at the democratic ratifica- tion meeting last Thursday night on the lately- Published official statement of the Treasury de- arunent, showing the losses in the recelpts and isbursentents of public moneys rom the beginning Or the government down to June 30, 1883, by ministrations. Secretary McPherson says the Treas- ury statement is not new in matter or form, but differs from that of 1880, only in Its bringing down the actual accounts four years later, and in its being @ transcript of the Treasury books touching ‘Uhose polnts, as they stood corrected on June 30tt 1888, He adds that Secretary Post was gulity oi subterfuge in taking the amount of money involved in sults Vrought by (he solicitor of the Treasury a ‘@ basis for the statement that the ascertafhed losses under President Arthur’s administration Were $1,550,800.27, instead of $5,361.09, a8 In the official statement, because the solicitor does not re- ‘Port defatontions, only suits; and lis suits are xen- erally upon detaults which have occurred in pre- vious years, for the obvious reason that time is given for the correction of errors before making up Uhe accounts, upon the transcript or which the Solicitor’s suits are based. ‘The solicitor’s suits are Not a proof of the amounts actually owed by those With whom the government deals, any more than the amounts claimed in suits in civil itte are proofs of the actual indebtedness of defendants. That can be known only after both sides are heard, when the case must be decided according to thé evidence. Besides, he says that Secretary Post treats every dollar as lost. to the treasury which has been embezzled by disbursing officers in disre- gatd of the security afforded the governmentin the nds of these officers. He contrasts various state- ments made by Secretary Post with each other and accuses the latter of self-contradiction, Betting on the Election, SOME EVEN WAGENS ON TUR RESULT AS BETWEEN CLEVELAND AND BLAINE, ‘From the New York Sun, ‘Mr. Willlam Wyse bet $500 even with Col.

Casey, superintendent of the con- Struction of the State, War and Navy department Duulding, in his report to the Secretary of War of ‘the operations on that bullding during the year ended June 30th, 1884, states that they embraced the completion of the approaches of the north ‘Wing, and also clearing of the site, principal exca- Vation and commencement of foundations for the ‘West and center wings and the collection of butld- ing materials and machinery for these wings. The expectations that the approaches to the north wing would be completed during the fali of 1883 Were not fulfilled, and the friezing weather of the Winter found the work still incomplete. On the ‘24th of March work on the approaches was ro. sumed. The main entrance platform, with tts ‘stone balustrade and steps to street sidewalk, was completed and turned over to the use of the War department May 17th. ‘The last of the granite was Fer on June 3d, and the approaches were entirely finished on June 18th. ‘The completion of the approaches finished the construction of the north Wing, leaving only the west and center wings, ‘with the corresponding stnail extent of approaches on 17ih street, yet to be built. The cost of the | orth Wing was $1,912,094.02. ; During the year the preparation and delivery of ‘the cut granite for the west_and center wings pro- Uuninterruptedly, so that most of the stone the area walls, sub-tasement story and lower of the basement story, and of the first and Second stories of the front, is on the ground ready use.

The lastof it was Te moved April 1st, ‘The work of excavating before the foundation Trenches could be cul, amounting to about 18,000 cuble yards and covering more than one acre of ground, was begun March 31, under contract, and compleied May sist, since’ which date extava- Uons of foundation trenches have been well ad- vanced, machinery for maxing the foundation con- crete put in running order and much material for concrete collected.” Contracts were entered Into for all the Laportant materials required during the Present season. | During the current year all the foundations and the masonry of the coal vaults, court-yards, area Walls, front and rear sut-baseiuent story and at least ‘part of the Basement story throughout, will probably be completed for the west and center Wings. It ts expected that the masonry of these Wings wili have been carried up to the level of the Second story floor by the close of the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1885.
