8 CN ee NOLAN’S LITTLE FEE. Speaker Metuire Gives His Theory of the Division of the Plunder. THE TOTAL TO EXCEED $75,000. — Gow Willy Wallach Was Made a Catspaw for the Emigration Ring, Yesterday's session of the Emigration Invest) ating Committee developed some interesting jumony, It gave Speaker McGuire an opportu- pity of giving his theory of the division of the payments made by the steamship companies, and although he did not positively tell the names of Ghose who lightened Nolan’s pockets of the bur- @en of from $75,000 to $90,000—ro this sum Nolan’s Mitie fee, irom being first $40,000, has already jrown—he hinted pretty plainiy, in auswer toa question by the writer, that Mr, Alexander Wrear was one of them. Mr. Waenner weut even’ 0 far as to say that Nolan only received seven per cent of the payments, which, I they were 675,000, would make his share only $5,250. Upon What information Mr. Wactiner bases bis compt- @ation is yet to appear, but if it is correct many people will, no doubt, sympathize with Nolan, “All vbis fuss about $5,250," they will say, “and ‘he young man has had to bear all this disgrace or $5,250, walle the men’ who pocketed nimety- ‘Shree per cent of the money have thus jar been womfortably hid in secrecy.” Perhaps Nolan's ‘written statement will throw light on the puzzle. TESTIMONY OF MR, SANFORD. Mr. Thomas 8, Sanford, the secretary of the North Auianiic Steamsbip Conference, was the first witness. Mr. Wachner—Were you at any informal meet- ‘mg of the conference where action was taken in fegard to the employmen: of counsel? Mr. Sanford—There never was an informal eeting for such @ purpose to my knowledge; 1 ffon’t know Michael Nolan and never saw him; 1 pever Enew that he was employed ior the purpose | feeling of personal bostility against toat | Bntil I saw the matter in print.

Wallach—None whatever. The witness subsequeatly stated that he con- sidered the salaries paid to the officers during his term of service exceszive, There were some ol- ficers who were entirely superfiuons, such as the Postmaster, the Assistant Postmaster, the Super- inteudent of the Boys’ Barracks and some men on Ward’s Island, The services of the Superiiend- ent at $6,000 @ year might easily have been ais- pensed with. A MAN WELL CONNECTED. Mr. King, the purchasing agent, was an ap- pointee Of Mr. Frear; the witness inquired who jug Was When bls app lutmeut was proposed, anda be was told wat King was very well con- nected; that he was a relative of Tweed; was w geutieman in Tweea’s cillee; the prices pald lor | meata were excessive, and (hey were frequently | obtained at half the price that had previousiy been paid; he made a culcvlation waica showed | that or, Jim’?

Toere were no new developments whatever yesterday concerning the Tammany tubbub, and it is more than likely that even the final acuon of the Committee on Discipline, woich meets to-day, a. noon, at Tammany Hall, will be unable to create auy fresh excitement, The reason for this Probability is very evideat, All the mischief, a9 the Morrissey men cali the wiping out of the com- Mittees of the Totrd, Eleventh and Fitteenth dis- {ricts, that can be cone has been done—that 18 to si nothing that the Committee on Discipline does can make matters worse for the victims of the Committee on Organization's course on Satur- day last, and whicn wus so vigorously followed up in the stand taken by the Committee on Dis- cipline on Monday, All the members of the general committees of the ‘hira, Eleventh and Fitteenth districts being, in the eyes of the faituful of the Wigwam, dead ana buried, they can no _ longer be reached in any way by any further action on the part of the committee at their session this afternoon, The chief interest of the democratic politicians will, then, from this till the meeting of the Committee on Organtzation on Saturday centre upon the names which the Committee on Discipline will finally decide upon as . LOYAL SUBJECTS OF TAMMANY who can be trusted as members of the new gen- eral committees gf the Third, Eleventh and Fif- teenth districts, It willbe remembered that tne Teorganization plan settled upon is that sugges- tions should be received from democrats in the three districts as to what men of standing ta the party who reside im the districts should be se- lected for places on the new committees. To-day it is expected that the committee will do no other busivess than to respectfully recetve all sug- gestions made, and twat they will pot be able to aecive upon the Bames until to-morrow or on Saturday, when they will be reported vo the Com- wirice on Organization, AS matters will stand up to the time when the latter committee will mee: the six members of the denounced general committees from the Toird, Keventa and Fifteeovn—nemely, Hayes, OReilly, Morrissey, Feliows, Ledwita and Radley— are entitied Lo atiena the meeting, and it 13 not unlikely that Wuen the quesiion of adopting th report of tue Commitiee on Discipline creating the Dew committees Comes up tor aaoption they wil improve the opportuaity by getting up A LIVELY DEBATE, ‘There are Many Who believe, uowever, that they will not attend at ail, kKnowmg twat they will be laid out by the same vote they were om Saturday last, and taat their discussing the right or wrong of their dowatall would do them no good and pos- sibly do their frieuds ceusideravle harm.
