[ Special to TUB BEE. ] The conscience fund of the treasury department now amounts to more than a quai tor of a million dollars. Every week and nearly every day Treasurer Huston receives one or niqro envelopes containing money from P TMIS Who do not sign their names and of xnuuo Identity the notes accompanying the fiielosuro give no sign. The amounts sent tango nil the way from two cents to hundreds of dollars and the majority of the notes state that the money rightfully belongs to the United States and lias been wrongfully taken from It. Some of the writers give anonymous signatures. Many sign themselves "Con science. " Scores nfllx the word "Hcstitutlon" to the disguised hand which they write and a few ( rlvo no signature whatever. Some nro like the following which was wiltten on a half page of foolscap inclosing a one-hundred dollar bill , and bearing in the middle of a sheet of paper these words : 1'rom ono who wishes to hereafter observe tlio coiimialuliiiuiit : Thou shalt not stoat. This was all. There was not oven a dash In the way of signaturo. Another letter en closing 118.60 read as follows : troubled conscience Bends 112.50 which he > i from the eovurnmont. Ho Is sorry for . rfuuU uml will auiul the rest till nil Is paid. " Another written" by an illiterate man and dated Chicago , coiUulued $14 , and the sender writes : Mr. Treasurer : 1'lerno except this from ono ninklnK his pease with Uod mid appropriate It to tin ) usu of the govuriiuiuut. It belongs to the United btatcs. ItbbTlTtmoN. " * * " 'JTho History oC the Conscience Fund , The government began its conscience fund in 1811 and during that year fJ50 was covered Into the treasury under It. From that time on till the close of the war the amounts received were small except in 1SUO when they amounted to $2,000. During the war they Jumped rapidly upwards and at the tlmo of the settlement of the accounts at the close of the war there was a largo Increase through conscious-stricken paymasters and Butlers so that In 1SOS $20,000 were sent in nnd in IbO" f 12,000. , In 1873 $ 1,000 wcro ro- clvcd and tbo amounts como in now at the rate of thousands of dollars a year. Tbo total In 1SSS bad amounted to (211,000 , and now in 1690 it readies considerable over $250,000. I spent some hours today looking over the great packages of letters which have been ro- reived containing conscience money , I llnd - "t immy of them full of pathos and every one , it It could speak , could tell its story of crime. f The biggest amount over received from ono man was (5,000. It came in thu cheapest of tnanllla envelopes , wrapped up lu one-fourth of u sheet of dirty note paper , upou which was written the following : "Htm. UUKU McOulloclu The eiiclo-KHl In iiionoy that rightfully belongs to tlio United Mates , though thu world would buy I cumu by Jt , I count , uovr T r , a clear ecu- science of more value than money can repre sent or o.\prcss. The money sent was In treasury notes of $1,000 and under. Conscience-Stricken Army Officers. Some of the letters received from the army ofllccrs are interesting nnd they show that the soldier's ' conscience is well developed. Hero is ono received at the close of the war : Kudosed Mud $112 which I was pnld for a hoiso lost In thufcervlcoof the United States but which was lost paitly through my fault. I luivu novur full fully Hiitlsllcd when thinking of tills alTiilr and I shall over hereafter foul hotter In mind to have luftimlcd this amount to thu Kovuriimunt. I Had the way of religion uaitow and the guto straight. Yours truly , ( Signed , ) INSTITUTION. Another ofllccr writes at about the same time , stating that ho was an ofllccr lu the United States army and was entitled to two servants , but that ho used only ono while drawing the salary for two. Ho says this custom was known to the paymasters and it was a regular thing with thousands of ofll- cers. Ho Incloses $100 In his letter nnd states that ho entered the army poor and loft It poor and sick , "too poor , in fact , to get along with out a clear conscience which ho cannot have ns long as ho retains this extra money. " His letter is not signed. The following came from Hartford , Conn. : lion Iluph McOulloch , Secretary of tlio Tieasury , Washington , 1) . 0. : Dear Sir : Tn- olosed iiUmsa llnd u chuck for flfly dollars ( J'-O ) which In honestly due the government by mo.

Hoping , duarblr , that you 111 look favor ably on this , 1 remain yours respectfully , Cotters. There are hundreds of such letters , and these received from smugglers uro qulto as numerous. Ladles who have smuggled Jew elry , gloves and dresses past the customs officers at New York ou , their return from Europe become consdenco-strleken and enclose - close money to the treasurer of the Uultod States. Hero Is ono containing $5.50 , which represents the duty on the kid gloves of aNew Now York lady who says she Is sorry to trouble the secretary of the treasury about the matter , but she does not know where else to scud it. Hero are $500 from Chicago which represents extra tariff duties unlawfully evaded , and hero Is a Bal timore hardware man who says ho has cheated Uncle Sam out of $270 lu duties and encloses the amount in gold. The letter , which is unsigned , states that the writer is anxious to deal fairly with all men and wishes to bo at peace with God and his country. Restitution by Installment. Not a few of these conscience-stricken people ple puy back the money they have taken from the government in piecemeal. Ono poor man sends $14 and says ho will send more bye and byo. Another writes and sends the lottcr to the President of the United States. Ho says : Mr. President : Inclosed you will flnd (10. I ucfruudcd the luncrnmcnt out ot this and more , hut 1 ba\o repented and b s your par don. The amount Is only a > ory smiul part ot n hut 1 would sh u if it lay In my pox cr. A Boston man whoso letter is signed with a dash wrote to Secretary Mt Culloch inclosing 11,600 In three $300 notos. As ho originally wrote the letter In Ink ho says ho Indosc * 12,500 aud the "U" iu the tuk b stricken out nnd the word "fifteen" in pencil written above it. This letter was received in May , 1SSO. A few weeks later n letter In the same handwriting came to the treasury department inclosing another 81,000 and btating that the amount was the balance of the writer's in debtedness to the internal revenue depart ment. This letter was also signed with a dash and its envelope bore the Boston post mark. How Itcvlvuls Affect Consciences. Some of the letters are evidently brought out by religious revivals , and ono or two urge the olllcers of the treasury dcpaitment to te- pcnt and seek the Lord. Hero is ono from Now Haven , Conn. It incloses $30 and the man writes : Secretary of the Treasury : I have the honor to transmit to you the sum ot J.IO which be longs to the United States government. I urn Indebted a few dollars moie , but am poor and cannot send It. I shall do so when I etin. I never Intended to keep It so Ion ; ; as I have , nnd pray God may forglvo tno for so dolnc. 1'itoM ONI : WHO itct.iEVPS THAT GOD WILI. 1'umsu TIIOSB WHO AUB UISIIONIST. : The following Is from Now York and is directed to the "gentleman who receives con science money. " It reads : Inclosed find 112. belns the amount of In come tax for Ib04 with Intelest. This amount was withhold by mo , but having lutoly expe rienced lellglon I wish to mavo amends for my past sins to my utmost ability , and I therefore loturn this amount duo. Jly friend , are you a Christian ? If you are not , book the Loid now , for there u 111 be u judgment day for nil. Yours , CONSCIENCE. "Ono who would be honest" sends $ iXX ) nnd asks the secretary of the Treasury to place the amount where it rightfully belongs , and oblige him. Won From ix Paymaster ntDrmvpolcrr. In contrast to these sober contributions is one letter which came to Mr. Skinner when ho was treasurer , inclosing 70 cents of frac tional currency which the writer states that ho won from a United States paymaster at drawpokcr , and which , ho Is con vinced , rightfully belongs to Undo Samuel. The man asks that the amount bo applied to the national debt and signs himself "conscientiously yours , Probity. " Another letter written some Umo ago and written with a pencil , reads as follows : Treasurer of the United States , Now York : The enclosed tW ( is foe Undo Hum from ono of his neglected iiophows. There was no signature but at the bottom was a request that the receipt bo acknowl edged through the newspapers. Nearly one- half of the writers are anxious that their money bo receipted for In this way. Some ask that a mention of the matter be made by Washington correspondents and others enclose - close money to pay for the advertising of the receipt in the personal columns of the news papers of their respective cities. Not a few of them request that their letters bo kept on tile and the reason for this Is doubtless that in cas.0 their sins should bo found out that they may bo able to show that they have made restitution. In such cases It is fear of discovery rather than conscience which prompts the return of the monoy. The gov ernment , when money is sent for such adver tisements , always advertises them and the letters are always kept. Hero is 0110 request ing that It bo preserved. It is signed Jones. It encloses $100 which Jones says ho unlawfully obtained from the government and wants the copy of his note saying that he bad returned it kept on illo. Some of the letters are quite lacoulo. Hero Is a slip ot paper which encloses $7. It has only the word "conscience , " and the figure " 7" on It , And that was ull that came In the envelope with the monoy. Hero Is another : Treasurer u ! thu UulUxl Btutcs : Enclosed find check for $310. No matter how obtained. Kespcetfully , - . Hero is another1 also enclosing money : Nnw YOIIK , October 1. "Rentier unto Cmsar the thlnss that are On-sav's and unto God the things that uio Gods. " Yriurs penitently , CONSCIKNOK bTIIICKKN. This probably came from a "Washington clerk. It is dated Georgetown : Secretary ot the Tteasury : Having tnken articles from the covunmiant which did not boloiiR to mo , and \\hlch were worth , I luilse , ( J , I enclose It. Yours , V.

This is in a woman's handwriting , but the lady does not state her lowest flgure. She writes : I Dear Sir In ono sense I own the government 110 and In another I do not , lint , Inasmuch ns I prl/e : i clear conscience moiiiit him tlO , 1 enclose you Unit amount for the United States treas ury. Yours with respect. CONSCIENCE. Some years ago a largo amount of corre spondence was received from nil parts of the country containing small amounts contributed by citizens unanimously to the payment of the national debt. These contributions were called out by the following letter : The National Debt a Two-Cent Affair. BAi/riMonE , Oct. , 15 , 1807. Hon. Hunli Jle- Culloutli , Secretary of Tieasury. U. S. , Wash ington , 1) . 0 , : I see It stated In a nunspnpor Unit U cents placed at Interest for 2,000 years will pay alt tlio national debt. It Is not stated lit what Interest and I have not the tlmo to outer Into a calculation to test tlio truth or falsity of the assertion , oven If the into per cent were Riven , nor can I wait to nurse such an Investment , but taking It for granted that the statement Is correct I 'Till not ticurudKO the amount and so enclose It , to bo applied ac cording to your best judgment. When you have done this how idle will bo ull the talk of lepudlatlon and tlio world will learn after all that the national debt Is but a gcnnt affair. Youis truly , IlAi.TMoniJ WOMAN. I' , S. I do not wish you to put tills contilbu- t Ion to the conscience fund , but to apply It to the payment of the national dobr During the latter years of Andrew John son's administration a number of conscience loiters contained a criticism of the president's policy. Ono letter endowing S couts reads as follows : To. , December 23. 1907. lion. liiKh McOullooh My Dear .Kchoolmato : I send you enclosed nrt-cent piece. 1'leaso ap ply It to wiping out the national debt. This Is not consalonco money. My conscience is In solvent. bond my love to Andy , Mrs. Andy aud the llttlo Andlcs. In order Unit you may accept this I will state that I endorse the pol- loy of Andrew Johnson and In faetovery suouk up our way endorses him. YOuM'truly. ADAM Qoousctx. A great many of these letters relate to the unpaid Income taxes. Some enclose counter feit money and a good many of the contribu tions are sent through tho' ' Catholic priests. In these coses the letters are signed by the priest and a receipt is scut to them for the money whenever they request it. One man signs himself "War Democrat , " nnd states that ho returns MOO which belongs to Undo Sam. Another encloses $20 and asks that it bo credited to the union defenders aud that if possible the amount ho applied to the im peachment of Andrew Johnson. A letter in pencil written on a slip of U > rn writing paper encloses $9SO and bears simply these words : "Two hundred dollars fotf debts. " Another reads as follows t "Secretary 13 out well : Enclose - close 11 ml 60 cents for debt.H KO signature.
