GENERAL COMMENTS.
Gen. Lloyd Aspinwall said to are- _ .
porter : "I think there is every reason -
son to believe that Conkling and Platt
both will be re-elected. Conkling is a
very strong man in the republican
party of this state and ho is n very
shrewd politician. I do not think he
would enter a contest for re-election
unless he was assured that he would
bo successful. "
One of the gentlemen who attended
the caucus last evening , at Yice-Pres-
ident Arthur's residence , said this
morning :
"I have no doubt , whatever , th.it
both senators will be re-elected. If
it is thought necessary Mr. Conkling
will visit Albany to-day. At first I
had a doubt whether they could re-
ceceive an election , but now I liave
none , and am willing to stake almos ,
any sum that they will go back to the
United States senate. "
A nor 'CONTEST.
A prominent republican from one of
the interior counties i.iid : "My be
lief is that you will see tlr-i week and
next , one of the most hotly contested
political contests at Albany that ha ?
ever taken place in this state. It may
be that Mr. Conkling will go back ,
but even .if ho does , what sort of a
victory will it bo for him. Ho ivill
liave the'approval of a legislature ,
chosen for the express pmposo'of reelecting -
electing a Tjnifeqfbtatei senator as a
assistant cwho would be entir y sub

riTNEY IN TROUBLE.
WASHINGTON , May 24 1 a. m.
Considerable of a ruffle was caused in
the treasury department to-day by the
publication of alleged disclosures of
the investigation into the accounts of
Custodian Pitney of the treasury.
There have been many extravagant
rumors in regard to the investigation ,
but the facts are these : It has been
known for some time that a great deal
of money has been disbursed by the
custodian from the contingent fund.
Whispers are heard that articles had
been purchased in large quantities
that were not of use in the depart
ment. Considerable had also been
said about the elegant manner in
which Custodian Pitney lived on
$1,200 a year. To ascertain just how
much of truth there was in these ru
mors , investigation of the custodian's
official affairs was placed in the hands
of three competent accountants and it
has been in progress two weeks. Just
what disclosures have been made can
only bo conjectured. It is known
that some irregularities have been dis
covered.
PRESS OF BUSINESS.
WASHINGTON , May 24 1 a. m.
Mrs. Garficld is slowly mending , and
the press of business on the executive

A Brutal Assault.
About noon yesterday , some work
men employed in building houses on
south Seventeenth -street , got into a
quarrel. While at dinner , George
Hoefer claims that ho was struck from
behind with a billet of wood by one of
the men , and shortly attor , seeing his
assailant in the street , ho set upon
him. Hoefer was more than a match
for the man , whoso name is Karl
Kleimor , and getting him down jumped
on his chest , injuring him perhaps
fafaliy. Mf , William M , Simcral
happening along at the time in his car
riage , took the wounded man to his
home. He bled profusely from the
nidiitit. Hoofer was arrested and held
in $300 for examination until Kleimer
shall become able to appear against
him.

TJio A & O. Keeps Its P'lnco in ino
Liutd , andKnocks Off More Hours
lii tUe tfimo id the Easfc
New and important changes In tile"
time schedule. of the Baltimore and
Ohio company into effect on the 22d ,
promise to be greeted with very de
cided favor by the people throiighobi
the entire west. ' "Very radical im
provements have of late been per
fected in the track and management
of the road , and now that everything
is in order for making remarkably
: asfc tinle , the ild\v schedule Is nn
nounccd , and from this time on things
will fairly hum on the old line. The
time from Chicago to New York is
very materially lessened , as the train
which formerly left there at 4:05 :
will , under the new schedule , leave
at 6:15. : All the leading eastern
lines haVe through express trains for
the east leaving at tllia hbur , and the
B. & 0. with its splendid facilities
and unequalled advantages in reach
ing \\ashinqton \ , arrives in that city
a full night in advance of the 5:15
brains on competing roads , or in other
words , passengers leaving on the B. &
0. arrive at Washington next even
ing , while by taking the 5:15 : trains of
other lines , the National Capital is
not reached until the second morning.
Another very striking advantage pos
sessed by the Baltimore and Ohio
road is , that it is the only line from
Chicago running solid trains through
to Washington , Baltimore , Phil
adelphia and New York. As
the trains are made up here ,
so it goes through , there , being no
change of cars of any class whatev
er. To those who do not take sleeping
cars for the entire journey but who
make themselves comfortable in the
regular coaches , the absence of all
changes cannot but be exceedingly
grateful. The regular coaches are of
the very finest description being of
the latest pattern and supplied . with
every possible convenience. Thous
ands of tons of new steel rails have
been laid , and the motive power has
been largely augmented by a number
of new and very powerful engines. In
short , the B. & O. is to-day without a
superior in offering first class
facilities to the traveling public ,
and at the same time remains the
model fast line of the country. The
new palace sleeping cars continue to
call forth the undisguised admiration
of the traveling public. They are co
spacious and so elegantly appointed as
to afford the greatest posssble comfort
while traveling , and certainly no
sleeping car line in the country has
more affable and accommodating con
ductors and porters. The parlor cars
just placed upon the line arc beyond
all question the finest being built in
this country , or , for that matter , any
other country. They are different
in several respects from the
stereotyped style ot _ parior cars ,
being more spacious and more
luxurious. The dining car line
from Chicago is , like everything else
on the B. & O. , of the very best , the
meals served being worthy of compar
ison with those of the best hotels in
the country. A uniform price of sev
enty-five cents per meal is charged ,
and the guest has placed before him a
menu embracing the finest and best
that the market affords. The time
from New York to Chicago has been
lessened an hour , the through train
being due at 7:30 instead of 8:30 : as
before. There is no material change in
the time of the morning train.
