St. Louis Globe-Democrat from St. Louis, Missouri • 5

A A A St. Louis Daily Globe- Democrat, Saturday Morning October 5 NIPPED IN THE BUD. The Bottom Drops Out of the Potter Plot. No Further Sessions of the Committee to Be Held. The Dastardly Scheme Killed by Tilden's Ciphers.

Sherman After the Conspirators With Sharp Stick. Gossip Gleaned in and About Washington. Special Dispatch te the Globe-Democrat. WASHINGTON, D. October is now questionable, judging from what has recently transpired, whether the Potter Committee will hold another session betore the assembling of Congress.

When they adjourned AT THEIR LAST MEETING in New York, Mr. Butler and other members announced that the next meeting would be held Immediately after the November elections. The disclosures made, by the cipher dispatches have materially interfered with their gramme, operating like 811 ambuscade to an -confident army. These exposures have excited the most apprehensive of the party managers, who are in the confidence of the promoters of this investigation. It appears that the secret influences which havo been at work from the inception of the investigation, having failed to make good their charges, have been engaged in manufacturing evidence to bolster up their case, the facts of which, when made public, will startle the country, and doubtless land some of the paid conspirators in the service of this committee in the Penitentiary.

Republicans who have been on the track of these hired emissaries are gradually getting into possession of tion WHICH WILL DEMONSTRATE that all the material charges affecting such prominent Republicans AS Secretary Sherman, Senator Mathews and their associates in the settlement of the disputed electoral votes of Louisiana, Florida and. South Carolina, were manufactured to order. The necessity for these desperate means was only discovered after the committee had embarked, and had found that there were no grounds for them to stand upon, leaving them the alternative of unanimously withdrawing from the investigation, or following the usual tactics of the party in establishing fraud against Republican leaders. Secretary Sherman has been in possession of information tor some time, confirmatory of these facts, and showing that his alleged letters were absolute forgeries. He contemplates aggressive PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE CONSPIRATORS, and has notified his counsel to that effect.

In the event of the committee not pushing this investigation, it is the intention of Secretary Sherman and his friends in Congress to demand an investigation into the allegations made against him, with a view to exposing their fraudulent character and their authors. The names of many of these paid emisaries have figured prominently in the investigation. They are well known here, and when made public will show the depth of infamy to which the Democratic party is always ready, with the aid of disappointed Republicans, to resort to accomplish their ends. The Republicans in Congress intend to insist upon a thorough inquiry into the cipher dispatches, and to bring their authors before the committee, in order that the whole truth may be brought out. If there be any law to reach them they will be prosecuted to its fullest extent.

THE LATEST REVELATIONS. The revelations of the inside manipulations of the committee in their efforts to inculpate lending members of the administration in the alleged attempt to defraud Mr. Tilden of the Presidency bave caused considerable excitement here. The information in possession of Secretary Sherman, in his opinion, conclusively attaches a large share of the dirty work of the committee to a journalist here who has figured notoriously in other investigations of so-called Republican delinquencies. Other parties implicated will also be brought to the light, AS it is the purpose of Secretary Sherman to give these people such a lesson as will render Democratic attempts to expose so-called Republican frauds so odious that the country will at last be relieved of this sort of political warfare.

A dispatch received here says that the Potter Committee will have no more meetings, and that the whole bubble of investigation has exploded and exposed the infamous purposes of its projectors. THE VENT LATEST DISCLOSURES. At a late hour to-night, it is ascertained from a thoroughly reliable source that among other evidences of the deep laid conspiracy to implicate Secretary Sherman in the so called manipalation of the Electoral vote of Louisiana, and of writing the Weber-Anderson letter, that James E. Anderson has made an affidavit before Dr. Houston of the Pennsylvania Republican State Central Committee.

wherein he (Anderson) sets forth that the testimony he gave before the Potter Committee was false in every particular, especially that portion which related to the writing by Secretary Sherman of the -Anderson letter, that he was paid for this perjury, and that the person who induced him to perjure himself and paid him therefor, WAR A. M. Gibbson, the Washington correspondent of the New York Sun, who has been closely connected with the Potter Committee through the whole of their labors. POLITICS IN THE MOUNTAIN STATES. Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, who has jnst atrived from the Pacific, says that Nevada will follow in the train of Colorado in the election of State and Legislative officers.

The action of the Democratic House toward the Colorado member caused great indignation among all classes, and by the results of the recent election it was intended to indicate to the Democratic party that the intelligent people of the mountain States were not to be overruled by intrigues. He snys that in California and Oregon public sentiment has taken a change since the recent elections, and were they to be held atter the experience of the October States the result would be quite different. In California the humbug of the Kearney scheme has been fully exploded, and the people are beginning to see that they have made a narrow escape from a desperate state of things. THE NEW MEXICAN LAWLESSNESS. Official advices received here from New Mexico do not encourage the belief that the troubles in Lincoln County will be disposed of as quick ly as at first anticipated.

The outlaws are reported as taking refuge in the mountains, where they can defy pursuit and wait for an opportunity to renew their depredatione upon peaceful citizens. If found necessary additionar troops will be sent into the territory, as 16 is the intention of the Secretary of War, after having undertaken the breaking up of this system of terrorism, to continue his efforts until last of these lawless characters baye died the country. SUPERVISORS AND THEIR PAY. The Attorney General a few days ago refused to pay out of the funds of his department the money due Supervisors of Elections appointed In several States during the recent elections. The Attorney General heid that while the appointments were made in conformity to law, there had been no provision made for paying the appointees.

His predecessor had paid such Supervisors withont any special appropriation being made for them, it was true, but he thought it proper not to do so. Besides, he said, some of the Supervisors said that the department bad no right Lo limit their expenses. Comptroller Porter, of the Treasury Department, wrote letter to -day to the General asking a revision of his decision, and suggesting that the chief Supervisors be paid after readjustment of their accounts, for all the Supervisors, and allow them to pay their subordinates. The Attorney General to-day consented to pay the Supervisors out of the funds of his department, with such revision of their accounts as may be thought necessary. Navy Estimates.

THE SECRETARY HARD AT WORK. WASHINGTON, D. October 25. -The Secretary of the Navy has declined to make speeches in Pennsylvania and to attend the meeting of the Grand Army of the Republic as lis next Wednesday and Thursday, where he, was announced to respond to the toast of the President, in order to begin the preparation of his annual report. The estimates of his depart ment, amounting to $14,500,000, which were anbmitted to the Cabinet this week, are the same AS the appropriations made by the last Congress, leaving the question of appropriating for the reconstruction of the navy to the judgment of Congress.

In his report he will call their attention to the necessity of increasing the strength of the navy in ships, and WILL URGE THE CONSUMMATION of the measure pending at the last session proposing a Board of Admiraity to whom the whole subject of naval construction was to be submitted. His voyage of inspection of the navy yards on the Northern Atlantic coast enabled him to form an accurate estimate of their wants, and the practical knowledge thus tained will be utilized by many valuable and impertant recommendations looking to increased facilities for naval construction and repairs in the Government sown yards. At League Island he will renew his suggestions that the fund originally set apart for the improvement of this yard, and devoted to other purposes by his predecessor, be restored and made availabie by an appropriation. Since his visit last summer, he has been convinced more than ever of the great advantages possessed by this yard as a station for THE FLEET. He thinks it capable, at a comparatively smail expense, of being made one of the finest navy-yards in the world He will also refer favorably to the advantages of the Boston and Kittery yards, and will recominend an priation to perfect some important improvements now going on there.

He believes that these yards ure peculiarly necessary to the work on the wooden vessels of the navy. the general subject of the efficiency of the navy, be considers the personnel and material never in more satisfactory condition. The report will not be lengthy, and will contain no very important recommendations. Capital Gossip. BUFLION BIDS.

WASHINGTON, D.C., October 25. -Bids for contract to supply 400,000 fine ounces of silver bullion to the Government in lots of not less than 10,000 ounces were opened to- and are now in the hands of the Commission, appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury, to award the contract. Bidders request that their offers be not made public. It is stated at the Treasury, however, that bide were very favouable to the Government. There were less than twenty five received, about haif a dozen being from New York firms and the balance from San Francisco.

The Government succeeded in receiving enough to meet its present demands, although the whole 400,000 ounces advertised for were not purchased. The bids which were accepted ranged from threequarters to cents per ounce below the London quotation to-day of A clause in the invitation of the Secretary for bids requires sellers to complete their deliverles within ten day's, the object of this being to keep out foreign bidders who can not deliver silver within that time. All bids at and above the London rate were rejected; those below it only accepted. TREASURY NOTES.

THE CABINET SESSION to-day was of short duration, and devoted to ordinary departmental business.

They offer to pledge themselves, if this clemency is granted, not only to abstain from further violation of the internal revenge laws themselves, but to use their influence to prevent others from doing 80. The department will probably grant the request.

THE SUPREME COURT, according to the reassignment of its calendar, will next month hear arguments involving the constitutionalty of all laws heretofore made bearing on the question of polygamy in Utah.

The language which be really used was as follows: And now this great and peaceful pation, reposing in that justice and wisdom, and accepting from one end to the other of it, the determination of executive power thus lodged, and thus lodged protected, has to look with indifference, if not with contempt, upon all the idle and puny schemes by which in streams of contumely and slander that title was sought to be impugned."

LONDON, October 25. The Standard publishes a sensational dispatch from Vienna to the effect that Russia's military preparations are 80 vast that nobody can doubt she is bent upon further conquest. The only question appears to be whether she will wait till spring or recom: mence the WAR before that time. The excuse will probably be outbreaks of Bulgarians, which were gotten up by Russian agents. A camp of 60,000 men is forming at Kischeneff, to replace the troops who crossed the Balkans southwards.

Rossia refuses to evacuate the Dobrudcha or Romania until Romania has concluded an offensive and defensive alliance. Russian agents only claim that Moldavia, as far as Sereth, must become Russian.
