SECRETARY FAIRCHILD SAYS THE PURPOSE IS TO GET RID OF THE SURPLUS, Secretary Fairchild has tssued a circular an- nouncing that the interest due September 1 and December 1, 1887, on the 434 per cent bonds of the United States, October 1, 1887, and January 1, 1888, on the 4 per cent bonds, and January 1, 1888, ‘on the bonds issued in aid of ‘the Pacific railroads, will be prepaid on and after August 15, 1887, with a rebate at the rate of 2 per cent per annum onthe amounts prepaid. Proposals are asked for the sale of Government bonds for the sinking fund. Secretary Fairchild says the anticipation of iu terest is for the purpose of (ee id of the sur- plus. ‘The latter operation, he said, 1s only what ‘any good business man would do to discount his obligations. The anticipation of interest is one of the two means given to the Secretary of the Treas- ury for disposing of the surplus funds, and he re- rded it as the cheapest and most advant; he interest covered by the circular amounts to $22,319,784. It is Impossible just now to staté the exact amount of the rebate. ‘The sinking-fund re- quirements will amount to about $v6,t 000 in. addition to the $20,000,000 of 3 per cent bonds al- ready applied. Tie surplus, sald Mr. Fatrehii can be put out only ibods the co-operation of the Dondholders, and if they do not accept the terms of the proposition made to them it would seem that they are notin very great need of money, pestle tdci Mrs, Cleveland's Trip.

Spofford expressed surprise at Admiral Luce’s recently-published Yews that “American fishermen must, not, enter anadian harbors for any purpose, except nheiter, airs, purchasing w< and obtaining water.’ Said Mr. Spotford:*“"If the admiral acted "under instructions, why did our Government send any fleet to Canadian waters? It would have been more graceful to have backed down in the begin- ning. If he has not acted under instructions, he should be called to a sharp account for giving away our Case as far as he couid.” Judge Woodbury inter] : “I shall be very much astonished if the authorities at Washington do not at once disavow the utterances of the ad- miral, for, if they indorse them by their silence, it isa practical surrender of our case.” In answer toa, question why no action has been taken by the ad- Iainistration under the retaliation act, Judge Woodbury said: “I nave felt like wait for the end before pronouncing a judgment. the Canadians have constantly and nly denied to American vessels all this season the rights named in the act of and have repeatedly oMicially declared their intention to the expressed will of Congress that the President should issue his proclamation withdrawing from Canadians what they deny to us.” “T believe,” said Mr, Spofford, “that if nothing is done by the administration before the pepeng Congress there will be some pretty sharp ingt addressed to somebody for this course.” WHAT CONGRESSMAN DINOLEY SAYS. “There seems to be an impression in Canadian circles,” remarked Congressman Dingley, who was present, “that there 1s no intention on the part of the administration to out the of with- drawing from ‘Canadian fish veel aay ‘ash as Enpresbion isso died io tae Comedies cand. that they seem to take it for granted that can re- fuse privileges to our vessels without sion again yesterday.

M'GARIGLE INTERVIEWED. A local paper has a long special from St. Cath- arines, Ont., this morning giving What purports to be an ‘exclusive interview with McGarigie. ‘The correspondent describes the fugitive as looking Very poorly. After some preliulnary talk, in which he complained of misrepresentations’ by ambitious newspaper correspondents, McGarigle said: “Now [am golug to make to you a short statement, and you will please let me take 801 of your paper. Iwill write down what I say and you can copgit. In this way I will have a copy, and if it is changed I snail be able to show that you have misre (wed me.” ‘He then dictated a letter in which he reiterated his former statements that it was impossibie for him tolive in jail. He dentes having offered to testify in behalf of ‘the State, and says there was notbing wrong with the hospital management. He knows nothing that would connect M. C. McDonald with any sort of a crime. He 1s anx- fous to make a settlement of his affairs, so as to go back to Chicago, but he cannot consent to g0 to THE JAIL OR PENITENTIARY. On the train MeGarigie gave an account of his experience since he left Sarnia. After driving to Wyaming and taking the train for London, as has been reported, he went to Hamilton, abd from there Wo Niagara Falls—the Canada side, of course. From there he took the Canada Southern to Dun ville, changing to the Grand Trunk at Port Col- borne. fe Was not, he says, in St. Catharines at all Tuesday, but passed through there on his way to the falls.’ McGarigle, when told about the Bax- Yer case agalnst hifn,’said he was not worried about that; he would get the officials of the province of Ontario to give Montreal notice that she will have to prove the alieged perjury of defamation of character before he Would go there. He Js not afraid that any charge of forgery can be trumped up against him, ANXIOUS ABOUT THE BLAKE. MoGarigle is very anxious tor the arrival of the Biake, as he has valuable baggage on that vessel. His pockets are filled with money and he evidently has interests of a money character in the arrival of the Blake. McGarigie 1Umay be flatly stated 13 in the care and keeping of Frederick St: Joun, brother of the doctor. ‘This 1s not to sa 4s at the St, John mansion, which 1s the finest in St. Catharines, nor can the writer, without break- ing faith with MeGarigie, say what residence he haschosen, One of the inost marvelous features of the case 1s the wonderful risk Dr. St. John has taken to ald McGarigle to escape. "When asked what he thought of Dr. St. John’s chances of going to the penitentiary MeGarigle BROKE DOWN LIKE A CHILD. He would not even speak. Unless detectives get too close to MeGarigie he will remain here for the present and rest, and If possible open negotiations ‘with States Attorney Grinnell for his return. For this he 1s very anxious. He says he does not want to bring his wife and children away from Chicago, Dut that he cannot live without them very long. He is very much opposed to talking about the Cook County thieves. He appears tobe tn health, but his nerves have been worked to a high tension and he says he mus} have rest or he can not survive long. One of the strangest things about hit ts that he has shaved his face, leavi the moustache and side whiskers, but cutting of the goatee, so as to correspond exactly with ‘the Photographs pasted upon Sheriff Matsons $2,900 reward circular, ‘This evening he read itover carefully and then laughingly sald: “It 1s not ex- actly complimentary. ‘The description 1s cept the ‘cat-like’ movement and the insinuating manner; but I shan’t complain.” Not Legally Bound, but Willing to ‘Surrender. ‘Toronto, Oxr., August 4.—The Globe this morn- ing says: “There ought to be no ceremony about convicted boodler of the MoGarigle stripe.
