Oct. 21. | New York Herald
Cable Special to THE BEE ] . The Herald's
cablegram from New York , published yes
terday , to the oftcct that the Mexican gov-
crnmontJiad boon robbad of bauds , created
considerable interest In financial circles and
, caused the representative ngcnts of Mexico
In London to becoino somewhat excited. In
quiry among them revealed the fact that
they iincl received no previous Intimation of
the , thoft. A call was made on Pablo
Martinez del Campo , charge d'affalrs
of the Mexican government. Ho
ald tha Herald had given him the first news
of the loss of the property. Beyond this ho
Vno'v nothing of tbo thoft.
Don B. Gomez Farias Is the accredited
financial agent of the Mexican government
In London , and ho is virtually the solo repre
sentative of his government hero In nil mat-
' " * , ' * r/i / of a financial nnturo. All Mexican
' "bonds bear his signature. Ho came to Lon
don to secure the conversion of the old stock
of bonds into tho' inew issue nnd
has succeeded. When questioned yes
terday t regarding the reported theft ,
he laid : "It poems tncrcdlbto to mo that
the report bo tVuo , I heard nothing of the
.matter . before I road tbo Herald dispatch. I
have just cabled Mr. Dublan , the Mexican
minister ot finance , inquiring , but 1 hurdly
expect a rtply before to-morrow. I made m
n I860 an Issue of bonds , In which the govern
ment decided to taka up Its foreign and homo
debt , and 1 signed the bonds as director of
thopubllcdobtbetweonNovombcrO , 18SO , and
June 30 , 1880. These bonds have been Issued
to the amount of S3S97,23r > . Of this amount
I brought $5,000,000 to London to take up tno
*
old stock , but have not Issued the whole
amount. Thora has been no theft of these
bonds , I Know. These bonds wcro all signed
by mo before I left Mexico , but whoever
issued them , they have received the seal , nnd
must bo signed also by Francisco Espinosn ,
the general treasurer , and by Tuls G. Abo-
gado , chief of section 5 of tbo treasury , that
' pertaining to public credits. If the bonds
wcro not signed nor dated and did not Imvo
the treasury mark , they must have been
merely blank bonds , such as wcro awaiting
being signed and issued la liquidation of
claims as recognized , for which purpose an
amount not to exceed , 00,000 Is issued
monthly. Such blank bonds could not , of
course , bo negotiated unless the signatures
and treasury mark should bo forged. The
signatures are difficult ones to bo forged , but
that difficulty could bo surmounted. The
ti casury * mark or seal , I do not believe ,
could bo successfully Imitated. It is made
by a machine which cannot Itself make u du
plicate , nnd Mexico und the United States
are the only governments , I think , which
use this sort of a machine. If , as reported ,
the stolen bonds have been negotiated in
London , tbo theft must huvo occurred some
tlino ago. "

ST. Louis , Oct. St. Frank J. Bouman. the
well-known lawyer , who jhas figured iu so
many matrimonial troubles here nnd in Chicago
cage , was shot and killed this nftcrnoon at
Ferguson , Mo. , by D. M. Chambers. The
Hilling grow out of trouble over the Times
newspaper. Chambers was a largo stock
holder and principal owner of the paper up
to the time of Its demise. Bouman was also
financially interested In it ; nud has been m
litigation with Chambers. Tuts nftcrnoon ,
in company with Deputy Sheriff Garrett of
St. Louis county , ho called at Chambers'
homo In Ferguson , met him in the yard and
told him ho had coma to buy proparty. Cham
bers was In the house but came out almost

The negroes of Virginia havpbeen organized
Into groups , companies , batalllons and regi
ments. Knelt group consists of tun registered
voters with a leader. Each company
consists of 100 voters with a com
mander. These companies In turn
are formed into batulllons of 500 , each
under a grand commander. Two of these
butalllons constitute a regiment of 1,000 voters

In many of the sparsely settled sections of
Virginia , and particularly in these portions
where tbo shot-gun policy prevails , the ne
groes are meeting at night. Some
of thorn travel as far as thirty
miles to attend ono of these meet
ings. In the Charlotte ) and Danville
districts , bowovor , the republican organiza
tion is almost extinct. Warning lias been
sent to the managers thut'sacii gatborlngs
will bo looked upon as threatening and lawless -
loss , and Unit violence- may bo expected. In
these districts the democrat * will undoubt
edly return heavy majorities , but in the
southwestern part of the , atato the full re
publican vote , which is'hircoly in the ma
jority , will undoubtedly bo polled , The
colored republican vote of Virginia has been
suppressed for years. There are In the state
not less than twenty legislative districts In
which the colored republicans largely out
number tbo democrats , and yet these twenty
districts are reproaontad by fifteen white
democrats and flvo colored republicans. The
republican national committee is boartlly In
sympathy and in active co-operation with
General Mahono. Flwt Assistant Postmas

WASHINGTON. D. C. , Oct , ai. I
Naturally there was a good deal ot talk
around the city to-day , and especially In ofll-
olnl circles , nbout the controversy between
Secretary Noble and Assistant Secretary
Bussoy on the ono side , and Corporal Tanner
on the other , ovar the lattor's management
of the pension ofllco. It is understood that
inoro letters and further correspondence will
bo published , and that the subject ts likely to
occupy considerable- public attention during
.ho week. More fooling Is evidently enter
tained by the partlci d ircctly Inter
cstcd than on the part of the public , for
so far as the body of the pcoplo is concerned ,
very llttlo feeling is expressed. There is ro-
grol among his friends that Commissioner
Tanner has said so much on the subject , as
tils admirers luivo very materially decreased
n number. Tire only result so far as public
opinion Is concerned is n belief entertained
jy n good many pcoplo that Assistant Secre
tary Busscy has shown inoro personal in
terest than bo should have exorcised and
o pcoplo co so far as to say
that bis personal interest was based
at tno outset upon a doslro to become com
missioner of pensions , The most Interesting
turtof the corrcauondenco lias already boon
published and very four persons , if In fact
nny one , seriously belio\'os that the Tanner

was appropriated for the purpose. The state
fish commissioners wcro Instructed to ex
pend thUsum and report the losult of thuir
labors. Their work has been well done , but
they say the nuisance has not been nbutod.
Iho money was expended In bounties , 3
cents being paid for each eel delivered to any
of the six inspectors distributed along the
river. The enormous nutubor of 0OOJ , eels
was captured und paid for and Mr. Toad-

shot dead by his wife's paramour. . The
woman broito down several Units whllo tell
ing the story.
Before the murder Bartholomew wanted
to rent the farm so that they might all llvo
together , nnd when Mrs. Dilliard would not
ugreo to that ho wanted her to go west with
him. This she refused to do so long as Her
husband lived.
