Public Debt Explanation, Speclal dispatch to The Bee Wassxoroy, August10—1 a, m.— The treasury department is in receipt of frequent letters calling attention to the apparent discrepancy in the statement of the amount of the pub- lic debt on June 30th, As shown by the monthly debt statement and b Grant knows_ auything about the whisky ring. Ido know that McDon- ald was an officer it the army, and as such Grant met him. Grant's friendship for him grew out of this ac- quaintance. 1know that McDonald had Grant's confidence, but only from the fact that he was an old army friend, and not from ary connection Grant had, directly or indirectly, with the whisky ring. Had I for 8 moment entertained any suspicion McDonald was dishonest, 1 should have dismiss. ed him at once, and I know Grant would have stood by me. Deputy Commissioner of Tnternal Revenue Rodgers, who is likewise de- scribed in McDonald’s book s having a guilty knowledgo of the existence of the whisky ring, vigorously denles the allegation. “I do know this, how- ever,” ho said; “‘that T had organized a corps of revenue agents to go to St. Louis to look after suppcsed frauds, and McDonald found it out in soms way bofore the expedition started, and for this roascn it was abandoned. 1 testified to this fact in St. Louis at McDonald's trial, and after T had done 80 McDonald said to me: ‘I don't think you treated me fairly in your tostimony to-day.” To this I replied: ‘T have told the truth and discharged my duty ss a public officer and as a witness.” " Rodgers is satisfied that McDorald hed +ources of information which kept him advised of tha inside movements of (he revenue office, but it who furnished the information he Col. Joyce, who Is mentioned in McDonald’s book, was revenue agent in Missouri, and is now, ana_hos been for toveral years, a quiet citizen of Georgetown. He was as much sur- prised as anybody at McDonald's statements. Col. Joyce remarked to- day that under the circumstanc:s it would be & great comfort to him to have the £250,000 which McDonald says he got. He would then f.cl assy with rogard to fimancial matters; but ashe did not get that, or any other sum, he did not seem to attachany great amount of credit to McDonald’s book. ELECTRIC BRIEFS.
