Special Despatch to Th Evening Telegraph.
Washington, Dec. 12. Secretary Bsntwell
made an argument before the Ways and Means
Committee this morning In favor of issuinsr.
three hundred millions of additional five per
cent, bonds for the purpose of funding; the
public debt. The Secretary gave It as his opi
nion that he would not be able to negotiate the
four per cent, bonds during the continuance of
the war in Europe.
lie has no means of knowing how long the
war will last, and it is necessary that a certala
amount of the debt shall be funded at an early
day. The Secretary proposes to negotiate five
hundred millions at home. Two hundred mil
lions are already provided for in the bill which
passed last winter. The committee heard the
Secretary very patiently, and although no action
was taken, the impression is that they will re
port a bill carrying out the proposition of the
Secretary.
The Nnanr Interest.
On Thursday next the Committee on Ways
and Means will hear the sugar interest. A large
number of importers, refiners, and others inte
rested in the sugar trade are here protesting
against the inadequacy of the law passe 1 at the
last session.
Couiinlnsloner ( Internal Revenue.
They say it not only works oppressively, but
clogs business. The Pennsylvania delegation is
very much demoralized to-day over an an
nouncement which comes from tho White
House, that General Pleasanton, of New York,
will be sent in to-day for Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue. The supposition is that Grant,
in order to appease the Pennsylvanians, will
give that State a place in the Cabinet.
The Han Doiiudbo IhIshiob.
Senator Howard, who was chairman of the
Hatch San Domingo investigating committee
last session, has evidence in his hands to show
that the man Hatch, who was imprisoned by
Baez in San Domingo, is not an American citi
zen. It appears that he went from this country
some time ago, and was naturalized as a Spanish
subject in Porto Rico. This debars him from
all claims to protection from the American Gov
ernment.
