AV'Asn.Noro.v , Juno 4. The following self-
explanatory coricspondcnco Is made public
this evening :
WASIII.NOTOX , .May 20 , 18W. My Dear Sir :
1 ha\u decided to jilaco In your hands my
resignation of the olllce. which you did mo
the honor to ask inn to accept fifteen months
ngo. .My IC.ISOIIM for this decision are botli
public nnd personal. Since tliu partial i e-
co\ury of my health lias permltcd me to ic-
licet uHin | tlio demands of thu public service
to which I had given , pei haps too fieely , all
my Hticugtn , and upon the condition1) of ro-
Hiitiiliig my laboi.s at your tilde , I have
not for a moment questioned
vhat must bo my piesent dtitv.
Tlio full recnvery of my health
Is piouoiinccd to be an affair of weeks , nnd a
longer period of lest , especially dining the
hot months , Is pieseiibcd , or nt least advised ,
ns a prudent regime theieafter. Compliance
with this advito would not bo'piacticablo
wuro 1 to lesuiue now the general direction
of the treasmy dep.titment. nven if abating
ftomethlng ot the eneigy which it seemed
needful to expend In tliu first year of my
work. Supervision at a distance would bo
moieof a liiudr.inee than help to the acting
secretary , lint It Is not bclittlni : that n de
partment of the government ho ditllcultnna
imiioitant should bo ndminlstuicd by aeon-
vafeacent , .studious of pairylng Its dally ex
actions , nor that the watchful contiol ol its
enormous Influence or the direction of its
fiscal policies , e\cn under your wise lead.
should be attempted by any ono concerned
about husbanding his strength. The reforms
In our llscal policy which you h\vo main
tained , and which have been framed and
commended to the wisdom of the legislative
branch , aie lefoiniB necessaiy to our safety ,
binding In honor , obligatoiy in the traditions
ot democracy , .set down w Ith pi omlsea in our
statute books. Our piesent tnilfls aio a need
less oppression Instead ot an easy buulen.
Our curiency Is chaos , in which wo piocnio
from forced puiclmbcs of one of the precious
metals a mechanical Increment under the
coinage law so ill judged and untimely that
It hlndei.s the opening ot our mints to the
natural nnd unlimited coinage of both metals
nnd thn lice expansion of our gold and sliver
coin along with the growing needs ot a
mighty people. All our needful customs
levenno might bo collected by strictly icv-
BIIUO duties upon a few scom of aitlcles , in
stead ot cxtiuvagunt or piohibltoiy duties
upon mine than u thousand aitleles The
mere machinciy ot the admliiisti.itlon , by its
own mass and complexity , bicaks down and
crushes out the cntei prise it assumes to pro
tect. A better etiriency than clsewlieic ex
ists might bo had by a lew lines ot lepnaling
and empowering legislation , followed by two
or three years of callable administration of
the treasury , and joined with the pic ent
saiaclous conduct of our loielgn policy by
thu .state deu.d tmeiit. Undci the operation
ol the currency and tarifl laws now in
lotce , which yon and the Koitj-nlnth
congiess were elected by the people to repeal
mid iclorni , thubmdened Industiles of our
country nio plunging heavily along a merry
road towaid foreseen dangcis. We talk o'f
aibitiatlng our i elective hliaio of disaster
instead ot knocking off our self-imposed
letters nnd leleasing general piospeiity.
This is no ) , in my deliberate judgment , a
time when the president can delay to pro
vide or alfoid to dlsttcn.se witli the actual as
well as ie.il head ot the treasury department.

No attention wns paid to it at the tlmo of

now its meaning were so Inlly In sympathy
vlth Its success that they did
lot want to impair the chances
f its passage by calling attention
o It During a meeting to-day of the house
ommlttce on war claims , to which the bill
vas icterred , Judge Fulleiton , an eminent
awyerof Jfew Yoik , made a icquest to bo
icaidon a measuie before It. The icqucst
vas granted. Judge Fulleiton had not
poken a docn sentences till it flashed on
he committee hi ; mission nnd the scope of
he bill above quoted. It meant the payment
by the govci nnient of the 0,000,000,000 out-
tanding confcdeiate bonds. So eloquent
vas the argument entered Into , and so
niqne and interesting , that the committee
did not Interrupt the speaker for overall
lour. Judge Fulleiton contended that in the
list place the iederal govern-
nent had no right or autlioiity to
say that a so\eicign state could not
mil should not pay one of Its obligations ;
.secondly , that the confederate states did not
paiticipats In the ratification of the nmend-
ncnt to the constitution which forbids the
layment of their obligations ; and , thirdly ,
n arrogating to itself the authority , the gov-
M-nment ale assumed the lesponslbility of
lie debt and must pay it. Judge Fullerton
; ave practical illustrations in his argument ,
exhumed laws and went back into ancient
ilstory to.show the urlnciples for which ho
"oimht. Some of the members ot the com
mittee began asking questions , when the
awyerdeclated that the young men before
ilin would live to .see the confederate debt all
idjnsted and paid by the fedeial government.
Ho declined it an honest debt that
he bonds were bought in good faith by Inno
cent pmchaseis. and that no govcinmcnt
xnildcxiiit which stood uiion tlio basis the
cdernt government baa taknn. He asked tote
) o allowed to submit a biief In the cabC , and
ils u-quest was granted.
The matter created a sensation. Many of
the northern democrats are much embar
rassed over the appearance of this subject nt
this time , and are charging to-night that
Indgc Fullerton was hlied by the lepubhcau
concessional campaign committee to raisn
the question at this tlmo for political pur
poses. But the lie Is given to this theory by
llio statement of Judge Fnllerton that ho rep-
ic.scnts the bondholders and that the measure
which he advocates was introduced belote
there was a icpubllcan congressional com
mittee.

The commeice committee in the senate Is
having a pietty hard stiugglo with the liver
and haibor bill. It is going tinough it very
caieftilly , item by item , and tlio Indications
ate that the river nnd harbor committee ot
the house will Imidly know their olfbprlng
when it gets back to them. The senate com
mittee has a double reason to make a thor
ough oveihauling of the bill. Unoot these
reasons is the tact that It finds many ques
tionable featuics in the bill , and another Is
the tact tnat the modest senators themselves
have added nearly two million dollars to the
demands of the bill in the way of amend
ments which hu\e been proposed by the
senatois since the bill came fiom the house.
It can led some 815,000,000 when it came
fiom the house , nnd to add $2,000,000 to the
total would bring the bill up to such a large

he UiiKl Tlio Sun , this mornlnir , says : "So
t seems that a , power snpuilor to Mr. Pow-
lerly's is i Islng among the Knlslits of Labor.
Ills Idea has been to keep the organization in
larmonyllh the society of the day ; In

'rum what wo have ahcady seen , It cannot
'all to bo disastrous. "
The Tiibnno says : "It is the opinion of
naiiy of the wisest members of the Knights
of Labor that the election ot extremists and
opponents of General Master Woikman Pow-
Icrly to the executive committee sounds the
death knell of the organization fiom
which they had ho ped for great icMilts.
I'lio most obvious effect of the election
will be to Intensify the antagoitliiiu between
the Knights of Labor and the tiudes unions ,
and the effect of these elections Is to destioy
whatever was accomplished by the decision
'orbtddtng strikes or boycotts without the
consent of the executive committee. It is
,1110 the force of this judicious decision lias
been alteady lessened by the amendment
conceding to district assemblies the power to
ot for themselves In cases of cinerirpnoy. It
s not difficult to see that cases ot cmoigoiicy
will often nri.se , but with the executive com-
iilttce In full control of tluxe who favor vlo-
cut measuics there Is little loom to hope that
the conduct of the oiKanl/ation will in this
respect bo impioved. Mr. Powdeily's com-
uentsnpnn the elections , \\lilch weie gi\en
.o tlio piess on Wednesday night , do not in-
lieato much confidence that his principles
will ultimately piuvall. Theiiuestion now Is
whether ho will consent to ictaln his position
t the oiganlzatlon is to becontiolled by men
lostllc to his piinciplcs. "
The Times says : "Powdeily went to the
onvcntlon confident of success In his
but though he is not willin ; to admit It , it is
ilatn that he has been ovei ruled and de
bated by men whoso policy it Is to rule or
iiiln. While the convention was In session
disclosures were made which showed that
ccitnln men inflicted with socialistic notions ,
who had founed what was known as the
Homo Club in this city , weio Intent on over
throwing the conservative's policy ot Pow-
dcrly and controlling the older for their own
aggrandisement. Notwithstanding the expos
ure of their ehaiacter and their plans , they
practically determined the final action of the
Convention. Tim lestilt Is pen haps one
that was to bo looked lor , but
nevertheless It is one to be
deplored. It only shows thjit the labor
forces of this country me not in a condition
to bo organized on a rational basis and con-
luctcd with pitulence lor the attainment of
legitimate ends. The etloit brings into ac
tivity so much self-seeking ambition , and so
inuityof the baser weaknesses nre
tlio" Inevitable Tesult.s. Theconso -
quettcV'ls that what 'is called an ot-
ganl/.ation seems likely to fall Into tlio
chaotic elements out ot which it wns oiigln-
ally formed , and by its own internal conflicts ,
to destroy its power. When woikmen's 01-
ganlzations become opposed to each other ,
ind divide within themselves , they cease to
be a power. "
The Woild say.s : "Powdeily seems to nave
lost his command of the Knights of Labor.
.lie is entiiely too uonseivative to suit the hot
heads , and he has been practically howled
out. So much the woise lor the Knights of
