the party of the northwest. II o (3 ( a member
of the national committee from Washington ,
and has been an indefatigable worker for his
party. He was backed by tbo democrats and
IVconor by the mugwumps. The loading
democrats of Washington tenitory have said
that the appointment of Beecher would
demoralize the democracy of tha northwest ]
that Botcher waa never anything but u
republican and does nut now profuja to bo o
democrat ; tnat to set NStdo an old party vet
eran like Kubn fur man who does not oven

NEW YORK , Jtne 0 A special to the Now
York Suu from Now Orleans s tys :
An investigation of the dedication made by
tha government in the United States sub-
treasury In this city was so secretly conduc
ted that even the local press had no idea of
what was colng on. Tha acoants were ex
amined on Mty 23 nud f jund correct. On
S iturday another Investigation was made and
a shortage in the acoouuta of J. F. Anfde-
morto , redemption clerk , was discovered.
Saturday , Decoration day , was a sort ol holi
day. On Monday morning 'Anfdemorte
f iled tt , appear at the offios The cue wai
put in the hands of detectives and the depart-
nmntat Waahii gt in notified. Autdoinorto'a
flight wa managed skillfully. It is supposed
by the officers thtt bi < l lt here for Mexico on
the Saturday train und i.rrived them Sunday ,
When , therefore , on Monday th deUlcutiou
was discovered Aufdemurte was in the inter
ior uf M xlco. It was at first estimated that
bin defalcation amounted tu 310,000 , but it
Is alieady thown t'ibj over S60UOU nnd maybe
bo much larger The exact amount of thn
lies cannot be determined until all thn
funds in the vault huve been counted
an it Is f.arcd that Auldemoita extracted
money from It. Among his pipura wer > -
mvfrul forged certificates of deposit in local
banks , wh ch he use I to make good his ac
counts. It seems that he would have made
off with a much larger sum had not one nf the
banks lefuted tu cn-di a check for ? 30,000
which he pre entod Friday last. If tha hank
h d reported this the authorities could have
prevented Aufdemorte from leaving the city.

CHICAGO , 111. , June 7. The Indications arc
that the Ch.'cago , Burlington & Qulnoy rail
road company will soon have an independent
line from Chicago to Salt Lake City. Ever
since the company's line reached Denver an
imprestion has prevailed that the next ob
jective pnint would be Salt Lake City , but
the Burlington folks always denied that they
bad any such intention , There Is no ques
tion , however , but that the Burlington is now
being pushed from Denver to Grund Junction
at a rapid rate. The ronte is via HotSprtnps ,
Col. one hundred and ten rmlou torthweet oi
Denver , where Grand river is encountered.
From this point the route will be down the
valley of the Grand to Grand Junction , anii
will be one hundred and ten milothorter
than the Denver & Rio Grande be
tween Denver and Grand Junction , anr
will make a i-hotter route fr > m Denver
to Salt Lake City than the Union t'acific. A

that a number of immigrants tfllictcd with
small-pox , who were permitted to land at
Castle Grrdon during the past week uro now
scattered throughout the city , nobody' ' knows
where , The health authorities have boon
notified to hunt up the cases , hut many of
them have probably left the city and are now
tottering the germs of the tha terrible
8C3iirgo broadcast over the country , Dr.
Taylor , of the health I'opatttnent , said to-day
that there was small-pox in nearly every port
from which steamers cama to Now York. In
London , where there h 3 ' .eon an epidemic of
small-pox for nearly n year putt there
were 1-lOJ cases last weok. The
small-pox patient on the llbylaud ,
ono of tbo three steamers detained at qunron-
tlno the past week was a London piusenger ,
As to n as ho was takou ill ha was isolated
and It is behoved that the other C49 passen
gers escaped Infection. The patients uu tbo
Weeer wcro also isolated su that there was
cot much exposure in that caso. TUoeo i f the
Wcper'o passBUgers who had been vacina'ed ,
160 in number , were allowed to land on Fri
day. Tney wont west If no more email-
pox manifests itself the vessel will be allowed
to leave quarantine shortly. The exposure to
infection on the Polulsa from which six tinall-
pox patients were removed on Thursuuy and
thirtoou on Friday , wan very great and the
voi-sol will culler proportionate detention.

luceal from this government kuoUdgo of
IB fact that cho'era ' waa epidemic in any

rutted to use the cable freely to give uotL-o
1 an outbreak of the epidemic. It is not
rnbable that any ship can leave any port
itbout immediate notice to the United
fates Dr. Hamilton is a firm believer In
uarantlne of land and sea , and is confident
mt cholera ccn be kept out of this country
unnj ? at least a year , nothwiths'anding the
