Tons of Public Documents of No Use Occupying Valuable Space. Reports are being submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury by the various chiefs of bureaus of that department giving information relative to the amount of stored documents, papers vouchers, receipts, &c., in their respective files that can be destroyed without injuring the interests of the government, This is in accord- ance with the provisions of an act of Congress passed a year or so ago calling for statistics on which to base some remedial legislation. It is known that in the Treasury department there are many much-needed rooms occupied by these really useless files that can be dispensed with as well as not, In the office of the tl auditor alone there are four large rooms that are filled with worth- less papers. This is but a sample, and in the crowded condition of the Treasury department itis highly important that there should be a general house cleaning. The report from the bureau of internal reve- nue shows that in that office there are 10,112 cubic feet of paper—amounting to 150 tons— that can be destroyed without any danger. These consist mainly of stub books of revenue officers, containing records of stamps issued. The accounts of these officers are all closed and this material is just so much dead weight. The act referred to included all of the ex- ecutive departments and as soon as the reports are made to Congress a committee consisting of the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House will consider methods by which this vast mass of paper may be removed from the room it now occupies, A LEAKY SILVER VAULT.

Sheridan, and that au op- portunity be offered the surviving soldiers of the late war to manifest their love for their ideal soldier and statesman by the erection of such a monument as shail commemorate his services for his country in war and peace.” —_— Says His Wife Refused to Come to Him. In the divorce case of Alma M. Cleary against Nicholas F. Cleary the defendant yes- terday filed his answer. He denies that he has abandoned hix wife, but admits that he has been | © ¥ from this city since 1878, residing in | Leadville and St. Louis. and says he has offered to support her but sue has refused to accept his offer or to come to him. A Divorce Case Dismissed. Judge Cox, in the Equity Court today, dis- | missed the bill in the divorce case of Lillie E. | Richards agt, Benjamin R.

George ¥. Leech October 14, 1877. and lived to- gether till June, 1836, wheu’ she charges he de- serted her. —— The Catholic Knights of America. A mass meeting under the auspices of the local branches of the Catholic Knights of America was held last evening at the New York avenue rink. Mr. F. J. Mc Quade, the state president, presided and the speakers were introduced by Mr. Ed- wafd J. Hannan. Addresses were mado by T. J. Larkin of New York, the vice supreme commander of the order, and Judge William Kelly of St. Paul, Minn. ' Both speakers spoke of the objects of the order aud: its prosperity. Owing tothe rain the proposed torch ligh! procession was abandoned. peaceaae Saas A Colored Convention Called Here. An organization with the title of the Central bureau of relief has issued a call to the colored men of the country to meet in convention in this city to take action in matters necessary to the righting of their alleged wrongs. The fol- lowing persons constitute the committee in charge of the preliminary arrangement for the Convention: PH. Carson, D.C; KA. Daw- won, N.J.; W. H. Smith, Minn.; It. H. Gleaves. 8.C.; Wm. H. Jones, D. B.S. Smith, Fla.; CM. Fer Tex.; C. A, Stewart, D.C. Bev. Daniel Morris, Md; M. Townsend, Ind. Wi Curry, Mass.; Robert rs ri Richardson, N.C. Treasurer Huston of a Sran reporter. Not at present!” was the reply. ‘Well, we have the starting of one down stairs,” he said. ‘down in the new silver vault. The rain has flooded it badly. Some time ago the top dressing of material was taken off and the concrete roofing exposed for the purpose of replacing the top roof with a new one. This was to remedy the difficulty that had been ex- perienced with slight leakages from the side walls, but we have jumped from the frying pan into the fire, for the water is POURING DOWN IN STREAMS from above. ‘The silver—about #87,000,000—is stored in bags of $1,000 each, and the bags are | placed in wogien boxes—two in each. These boxes are piled one on top of another nearly to the top of the cages. In some of the cells the boxes are overtiowing with water and the moisture stands out in beads on the canvas, Of course the dampness cannot very well burt the silver, but it will rot the bags and the boxes, in which case the silver would be strewn allover the floors. This would necessitate a recount of the money and would cost a great deal of money. As it is, [fear that it will be necessary to take the money out now and rebag and rebox the whole. This would probably Cost NOT Less THAN $10,000. “If something is not done the odor coming from the decaying bags and boxes will be ter- rible and will render it impossible for anybody toremain in the vault to work. There is no chance of the dampness evaporating, for the space is confined. There is no means of tell- ing just how deep the water bas penetrated, for the cages have not been opened.” It is probable that an effort will be made to steam the moisture out of the bugs. Some ex- periments have been made that indicate that suck a measure would be successful. In any event, however, some of the silver will have to be rebagged. a Miss Juch as Carmen. Miss Juch sang the difficult role of Carmen toalarge audience at Albaugh’s last night. Carmen is one of Miss Juch’s new creations: She does not go very deeply into the character of the wild gypsy and to the lover of moral dieseetion her interpretation would probably be faulty; however, to the average opera goer her conception is pleasing ayd her magnificent singing makes up for any deficiency in charac- terization. Miss Susie Leonhardt as Michaela | sang the two arias alloted to her in a mauner that brought out enthusiastic applause. a Real Estate Matters. Messrs.
