After the first announcement of offers published in yesterday's ‘Stak, and later in the afternoon, additional tenders were received amounting to $2,820,000, of which $500,000 were 436 and $2,820,000 were 4 per cent bonds, This raised e of the di ases tO $5,494,700, “of which $2,800,000 Were 4s and $694,700 were 4: by the Treasury officials not to make public the names of persons and firms sell- ing bonds to the Government, as some object, to thus publishing their private’ transactions, The fact that the limit of bonds to be purchased— $14,000,000—was fixed at the amount needed to complete the sinking fund 1s construed by some to {odicate that the purchase will not be extended beyond that amount. But upon this point no in- formation can be obtained, as Acting Secretary Thompson positively deciines to express any Opinion as to what the future course of the Treas- ury will be. Secretary Fairchild will have re- turned and resumed charge of the Treasury by the expiration of the date fixed in the circular, and tt . wil Serre ‘upon him to determine what shal 101 anything, after the purchase of the $14,000,000, e OVEE A MILLION OFFERED TO-DAY. Up to noon to-day Acting Secretary Thompson, of the Treasury, had received offers to sell bonds tothe Government aggregating more than $1,- 000,000, and a gratifying feature of the offers was that most of the bonds tendered were 4 per cents. Besides these the local banks, on their own ac- count and for customers, have offered quite large amounts forsale. The aggregate of these offers could not be deinttely footed up. ENCOURAGING FEATURES. It 1s specially gratitying to Secretary Thompson and his offictal assistants thatthe 4 percent bonds are being offered freely. Another encouraging feature 1s found in the daily statement of Govern- ment receipts and expenditures, Since the mid- die of the month about ,000 have been dis- bursed on account of pensions. This places the apparent surplus for the month at $14,300,000. ‘The bond purchases are not taken into account io this ing.

A Star reporter called upon Commissioner Mil- ler, of the Internal Revenue Bureau, to-day, and made inquiry as to the report that he intends to have samples of the beer put on the market by the various breweries analyzed. “Yes,” he re- plied, “it is true that we intend to have the beer now being sold throughout the country tested to determine its purity or impurity. We have an ex- cellent chemist, and he 1s getting ready to make the testa. Oh, no, we shall not call upon the breweries, respectively, for samples. We will pur- chase samples of the retail dealers and will label each one distinctly. In that way we will get the beer justas itis on the market, Of course we will not undertake to analyze samples of all the breweries in the country at once. We will pur- chase samples here and there throughout the country, and they will be sent here, ‘The chemist can perhaps analyze forty different samples in a day. The work will be prosecuted from time to fume; As there will be no system xan papcuring. tne beer, no brewer will be able to tell when Product is to be examined.” By these official tests the purity of the beer put: on the market will be determined.

STORY OF A WEST VIRGINIA OFFICE-HOLDER. A special to the Baltimore American trom Par- kersburg, W. Va., September 22, says: A prom!- nent office-holder arrived in this city yesterday from Washington upon a rare mission, His name 1s withheld purposely. Some years ago he held a Prominent position as collector and bookkeeper fora large mercantile firmhere. The confidence of his employer was almost absolute-in him, and his accounts were rarely inspected, and then'only ina cursory manner. Every year this young man collected tens of thousands of dollars. After four years’ service he suddenly announced his intention of leaving, and all efforts to dissuade him were futile. Soon after he had gone the books were put in other hands, and inspection showed that false entries had been made for a nuraber of years, and that the firm had been swindled out of a large amount, The whereabouts of the young man not being known, and his father’s family connection, prevented any efforts being made to arrest him, and the money was counted as lost. Imagine thé surprise when yesterday this young man stepped into the counttr, -room of the firm, acknowl his guilt, and repaid with interest every cent he had taken. He stated that his conscience pre- vented work by day or sleep by mgbt, and he could stand it no longer. Having paid some other Uttle debts which his hurried departure left un- canceled, he quietly returned to Washington city, Wuere he is comfortably cared for at the nation’s expense. ——.___ UNION EX-PRISONERS OF WAR IN CONVENTION.— ‘The annual convention of the National associa thon of Union ex-Prisoners of War was commenced at Chicago yesterday.
