THE CUBA LOBBY
We cail particular attention to the revelations
made by our special despatChes from Washing
ton to-day, of the secret history of the Cuban
intrigues to secure recognition of belligerent
rights from the United States Government.
We have the best reason for reposing implicit
confidence in the truth of the startling state
ments made by .our correspondent, and
_the
exposure of the rascality which . has _resorted to
such wholesale scheme's of bribery will doubt
less lead to an immediate demand by Congress
for the report of its own investigating com
mittee, whieh :appears to have been withheld
by General Butler, - for some uneXpliiined
reason. When the San Domingo swindle
comes to be similarly exposed, we have no
doubt that it will be found to have been engi
neered upon . the same inignitous basis. as that
of the Cuban fraud.
THE JEWS IN ROIUHANIA
After waiting nearly a week, the London
agent of the- New Vork Associated Press al
hides to the reported persecution and massacre
of Jews in Roumania, and gives a partial de
nial of the report received by the American
Pre'ss Association. We trust that the report
was exaggerated, but we are confident — tlatir
is not without foundation. At all events the
report was received in Lendon, whence it was
telegraphed here. It is an undoubted fact that,
the Jews in Roumania, who are among the
most industrious of the people, have
long been subject to outrageous abnse.
The matter has received -the attention of
the British Government; which sent Sir
-Moses Montefiore to Bucharest, with a
view to procureprotection for the„people his
race. This was promised by Prince Charles,
the reigning sovereign, who belongs to. the
Prussian house of Hohenzollein. But, the
promise has not been fulfilled. The Alliancc
Israelite, a Paris paper, has repeatedly pub
lished reports concerning the outrages com
mitted on Jews in Roumania; but the other
papers have net noticed them. The Berlitipa
pers, which ate bound to defend Prince
Charles, declare that the JeWs are well
treated. But this is positively known to be
untrue. As the papV4,o,l: Bucharest are ail
hostile to the Jews, 'auras the telegraph
Roumania is under government supervision,
it is difficult to get at the truth from that coun
try. But_thereis_na.doubt_that__the Jews_ are
outrageously abused there, and the reports
lately received were in the main true, though
we hope they were exaggerated.
THE CITIZENS' ASSOCIATION
though thc. Court—of—qua]
declined to aid the Citizens' Association in its
laudable efforts to compel the street railway
companies to comply with the requirements of
their charters, the ASSociation should not
abandon those efforts. It has attacked a great
public nuisance, affecting the credit of Phila-
delphia and the comfort of our citizens in an
eminent degree. The memorial presented to
the Court was accompanied by an array of
facts, sworn to by competent authority, which
Would seem to warrant the exercise of the
broadest power of the Court. The public
spirited gentlemen who, without any personal
compensation, are devoting themselves to the
Herculean task of improving the disgraceful
condition of the streets of Philadelphia, have
already accomplished an amount of labot
which deserves the warmest thanks of tht.
community,aud of the Court which represent•
the laws of that community. The Court,
which they hoped would take up the work thus
laboriously prepared, declines the office, and re
mands it to the Citizens' Association for the
prusecntion of its details.
- The decision Of the (?,I.trt declares that there
;tie " a variety of rerneilieS (Men Le the petitio
ers whereby the evils of which they complain
may be redressed." As Mr as we comprehend
the-argument of the Court these remedies are
three-fold. First, there is a resort to an in
dividual prosecution of each particular offence.
This remedy is open to a few practical objec
tions. The Citizens' Association is to select a
particular hole, out of the thousands that de
stroy our road-ways. It is to ascertain the in
dividual uho made the hole. Ile is to be
arrested. lie is to have a hearing, where he is
confronted by Ins accuser and his witnesses.
The alderman sends the mud-hole to cow-t. A
bill of indictment goes to the Grand Jury,
The witnesses are again examined.
If a true bill is found, the
trial goes on, and finally, subject to all the ca
prices and tricks of the law, the Citizens' Asso_
(nation may succeed in abating the particular
of the particular mud-hole, the authOr
of üblell has been discovered by the exercise
of sorue miraculous power. Encouraged by
this supernatural success, the Association may
then go on to the next rood-hole, and, if the in
dividual who made it should Le also miracu
lously revealed, may repeat the process. Should
the Association be blessed with unusual lon
gevity, some of its younger members may have
children \silo may live to see au actual abate
ment of the horrible uukanee which now af
flicts our city, in the shape of bad streets.
Ihe second remedy indicated hy Lhe (;,, i) ,A,
is a reference of the whole sithlect to the tour
missiOnei of highways, and seyeral ottlinanees
are !motet] to show that that officer is
Stith all the powers necessary to compel the
railway companieS' to keep the .streets in good
-repair. -What-the :practical difficulty in °the
way of this proposed remedy , is, we do not
kiniw ; there are atleast tititigoodreiiion—S
for the belief that such practical difficulties
exist. The fact that the Citizens' Association
has not resorted to this remedy is prinia facie
evidence that there are obstacles in the way,
which were deemed sufficiently important to
prevent that line of action. And the fact that as
intelligent, energetic and faithful an officer as
Mr. Dickinson has not resorted to this remedy
for the destruction of our streets by the- - rail- -
way companies is alsoprima facie evidence that
some power is wanting to make the remedy
effective.
The third remedy is the direct appeal to the
Court by the writ quo warranto. Here there
seems to be a practical suggestion, which the
Citizens' Association may do well to adopt.
The provisions of the railway charters are so
explicit, and the violations of them are so fla
grant, 'a m case is sure y one in whiih, in
he—words aLludgeTaxson,:the_Commonw_ealtla
will not refuse to allow her auo warrant° to
go out Islien the interests of the public or of
any considerable body of her citizens require
it."
The Citizens' Association must not be dis
couraged by 'its. failure in its first _move,
mein in furtherance of the great municipal re
form towhich it is devoted. if either of the
lines of attack suggested by Judge Paxson are
at all practicable, they should be thoroughly
tested. The people of Philadelphia want good
and decent streets, and they will _hail with-de
light-any successfeil measure to compel those
who now enjoy the monopoly of the public
highways to keep them in respectable condi
tion.
OIIR NEW TERMINI' MINISTER
--The President-has-,nominated and-the Senate
has confirmed Wayne McVeigh, Esq., of West
Chester, Pennsylvania, as Minister to Turkey.
If,. for-any-satisfactory reason, it was .desirable_
to make a change in our Turkish embassy,
president - 6;ant probably could tot have made
a selection, where the compliment would have
been better deserved, or the public service bet
ter promoted, than by the choice of the gentle
man who has been so promptly endorsed and
confirmed by the Senate:
Mr.McVeigh combines many qualities which
eminently fit him as a representative of the
American Government at the Turkish Court.
A lawyer of large experience and excellent at
tainments.; a gentleman of courteous manners
and unimpeachable character; a man inti
mately versed in the political questions of the
day; a patriot, whoSe enthusiastic devotion to
his country's cause has made him one of her
most eloquent and efficient champions, Mr.
McVeigh will be sure to maintain American
honor and American interests abroad as .he has
so well done at home.
NORTH PENNSYLVANIA nom) - AND
FIFTH AND SIXNII — tirREETIsT — RACti,
WAY.
To the Editor of the Bulletin—Slß: The
Fifth and Sixth Streets Line has the privilege
of maintaining a track alongside of the North
Pennsylvania Railroad depot, and should evi
dently be required to place there cars suffi
cient to accommodate the travel. Very often
there is but a single horse-car _waiting for the
9.30 train ; into it the passengers are packed,
like sardines, into a solid mass, and are made
so thoroughly uncomfortable that it is an ob
ject to avoid being obliged to come to the
city, in order to escape the nuisance.
Cannot there be a more effectual opposi
tion'' Cannot the Union Line, which, in its
up-route, passes close to the station, get a con
necting piece of road that will enable it to
carry passengers down likewise '.' At least in
some shape or other let us have a reform of
preseiit arrangement which, has become a
suMeet of annavance_and _indignation on the
pal t of those who use the North Pennsylvania
Road. CHELTENHAM.
The getting to and fro between the steam
depot and the central portions of the city is, at
best, a long ride, and is with many persons all
object idino living on the line of tads railroad.
/y—to • ' • tof the steam
road to see that the transit backwards and for
wards is made as little disagreeable as possible.
The management of the road is now conducted
with a view to cultivate the way travel, and
make it convenient and pleasant, but the efforts
of the direction are, to a great extent, frustrated
by the horse-car companies.

The card of F. Ratchford Starr, in reference
to the 'Mutual Life Insurance Company of New
York, noticed editorially on Saturday, was
accidentally crowded out of that day's issue of
the El:It:cm; ij It will be found in
to-day's advertising columns, and is an interest
ing and valuable official testimony to the admi
rable management of the great corporation to
which it refers. A company that can show
that it has not lost a single-dollar-by embezzle
ment, defalcation, or breach of trust, while
handling millions of capital,is certainly entitled
to all the high credit which it enjoys, both at
home and abroad.
The Episcopal Registcv is the name of a new
rol;gious newspaper published by Messrs.
McCall°, & Stavely, - IN es. 237 and 239 Dock
street. It is a, folio sheet printed very nicely
upon line white paper, and containing a large
amount of interesting reading mat er, edi
torials, &c. The le cyister is devoted to' the in
terests of the so-called Low Church arty," I
and it has the endorsement of several le ding
clergymen of this-city.

WASHINGTON, June 6.--For several months
past reports-have been in circulation that the
Cuban leaders, in order to secure the recog
nition of the Cuban Republic as a belligerent
power by the' United State's, have expended'
large - sums' of money with the lobby and
newspaper correspondents here to bring
_about .this_result._ Thu statements liave_been_2
met with prompt denials by the friends of
Cnba,-who claimed that, they were. 'placed in
circulation by those hostile to Cuban Mile- -
pendence ; but those rumors came from such
sources as to entitle them to more weight
than Is generally attached to mere specula
tions, and in order to" establish their
truthfulness or falsity, a sub-. Judiciary Com
mittee, with General Butler at its head, was
empowered with the necessary authority to
makca thorough investigation. This commit
tee examined a large number of witnessen,
and-concluded-its-laborn-nome-time-agor--but
from some-unexplained cause has not made
any report to Congress on the subject. Al
though Ge.neral Butler declines - to make pub
lic the nature of the evidence obtained by his
investigation, your correspondent has come
into - poss enni on of facts of-an-official character -
bearing upon and relating directly to this sub
ject, and these establish beyond doubt. that
there eras a large_ and powerful lobby at work
for thepurposo of bribing Senators and mem
bers, and to induce thePresidetit and his-Cabi
net to-recognize thebelligerency_of the, Cuban
Republic. It appears that as early as Septem
ber last Mr. Ruiz, the Financial - Agent of
Cuba, in Washington, entered into a written
contract with Mr. N. B. Taylor, an ex-army
contractor, through his attorney, ex-rebel
General Pickett, of this city, in the sum of
-r - One 311111 on Dollars
in Cuban bonds, which were deposited with a
certain - foreign minister here, to obtain the
recognition - of belligerant rights for C-nba
by the Government of the United States,
the said - stint to be used by Taylor in the best
possible manner to accomplish' this end within
a specified time.
Toylor'o First Effort.
As soon as the contract was signed Taylor
started' out West to secure the services of a
person v liv-hose-name is_withheld_for the pte,.
sent, and who was supposed to have great in
ti Items at the White House, and to induce him
to cows: to Washington and urge President
Grant to recognize the Cubans as belligerents.
This gentleman, however, emphatically de
clined to have anything to do with the matter,
although he was offered one hundred thousand
dollars for his influence.
Being unsuccessful, Taylor returned to
Washington to bring other influence to bear
upon the President, and soon entered into con
tract with a Mr. P., who was on intimate
terms with ex Senator Wade, in the sum of
two hundred thousand (longs, to secure the
influence of Mr. Wade and Senator Morton.
The Agreement
was acknowledged before David It. Smith, a
Justice of the I for the city of Washing•
ton. At this time ex-Senator Wade was not
in the city. But he was sent for and in a few
days he arrived. In the meantime Mr. P--
saw Senator Morton, and then soon after sent
his friend Luther B. Wilson to talk with
Morton about the matter. Mr. Taylor and Mr.
P-- were in close consultation every day.and
the hitter reported at first that Messrs. \Vade
and Morton would see the President and
endeavor to influence him] to extend to the
Cubans belligerent right. About the end of
November Mr. P— reported that Senator
— Morton had - drawn up
A Proclamation
recognizing the Cubans as belligerents, which
be had taken to the President to sign, who
had, however, declined to do so, it being an
tagonistic to the policy which the_Admistra
ton expected to follow. It was about this
time that the Cubans caused to be published a
positive announcement that the President
would recognize them as belligerents, which
Vas boeed; --- no -- doubti' -upon—the- -suppo—
sition that he Would follow the advice •
of Morton and Wade. Previous
to these movements, hOwever, Mr. Taylor had
deemed it 'necessary to aid of cer
tain correspondents in creating public
opinion, and eo in October had had a talk
with a Mr. Latham, who was mixed up in the
Alaska investigatioin with the correspondent
of the New York Sun anti the Philadelphia
inquirer, and who is also a law partner of
Col. Picketta Mr. Taylor's own attorney. Mr.
Taylor told Mr. Latham to promise Cuban
bonds inside of fifty thousand dollars in all to
various newspaper correspondents in Wash
ington if they would write up the Cuban
. cause and advocate the early recognition
of the Republic of - Cuba'. Mt. Latham
told Mr. Taylor afterwards that he had pro
mised certain'' df these bonds, but that it
would be much better to pay the actual
money to the correspondents, or it' this could
not be done, to obtain from Ruiz, the release
of some bonds, and give them directly and
unconditionally to the correspqndents. As
soon as Congress assembled in December Mr.
Ruiz so far modified his contract with Mr.
Taylor as to agree to furnish him with from
thirty.to forty thou Sand• dollars in money, to
be used immediately with members of Con
gress. Mr,. Taylor then went to work to in
duce the members to vote for the _recognition
-if that._ anoStion. should he brought :before
the House, and to work in a general way for
the Cuban Republic in all matters' which might
come up. He saw many members for this
purpose, and among others, Mr. Giolladay, of
_Kentucky; Butler, of Tennessee •; Deweese, of
North Carolina; Fitch, of Nevada, and Mc-
Cormick,of Missouri;' but it is not known-posi
tively who accepted bribeS and who did not,. it
being a oonclusion, however,, that such. were

About the end' of Jantiary . Mr. Taylor wrote_

,flartler to do with ,the matter,. assigning ,as a
• reason that no money or - boncls, - 48" presaisek --
had - been furnished him: 'Before this period,
however, Mr. Lemns, the Envoy from the

with Di. D. W. Bliss, of thin city. This con
luta provided that two - millions -- of - dollars of
-Cuban bonds should be put up with

sizing the belligerent rights of Quba - ,• - or' any
iothi.r resolution which shouldthe new
' trality laws of the United States so as to prac- •
tieally give to Cuba belligerent rights. The
consideration of this argreement on the part of-
Dr., Bliss was that he should use all the means
in his power to accomplish the abeve smeei
cified result. The two millions of dollars were
I deposited with the Safe Deposit Company of
"Washington, by Mr. Fessar, the Treasurer of
" the Cuban Junta in New York, - Dr:Bliss
signing with,him, on the.register-hook in or

bonds by one party without the consent
r i
of the otb r. Dr. Blis's then made arrangements
with sev al well-known lobbyists to assist
_him_letti ng_Congresa_t_o_pass_the_desired_ I
resolution, and among those employed were'
'Luther B:Wilson; Wells J; Babcock; George -
B. Pennlield and Isaae L. Gibbs, whom .John
son, when President, appointed 'Governor, of
Idaho Territory. These persons went to work
industriously among the Members to secure
the success of the, measure in which they
were greatly intereSted.
, • SenatoeMorton introduced in 'the Senate a
bill-modifying the nentr.ality laws, and urged
its consideration with great force. , But When
was reported hack to the Senate for action,
from the Committee on Foreign Relations, to
which it had been referred, it was rep:whiled
to such a degree as to be scarcely recogniz
able. In the Bouse a number of resolutions to
aid the - Cuban ause were introduced, but -
votes upon them were never / obtained,- and
the lobby found the,opposition 'much stronger
than anticipated, but still did not despair or
abandon their work. A large quantity of
pamphlets were distributed over the country,
favoring the speedy recognition of the Cubans,
in which were enclosed - blank petions to 'be
signed and sent to Congress, asking that
body by appropriate . legislation -- to
render to the Cubans this • im
portant service. Thus the parties who had
had this contingent interest in the Cuban
-bonds, by, the-aid of--a few purchased -corres
pondents here,created a fictitious feeling more
or less throughout the United States. The
exact- .
Amount of Rends Distributed
among the correspondents is not known, but
it is estimated at one hundred thousand dollars,
the correspondent of one prominent Philadel
phia paper alone receiving upwards of twenty
thousand dollars, - and the correspondents of
two other Philadelphia papers, and of one
Boston paper, getting quite large sums.

AN ACTION UPON AN OFFICIAL BOND.—
BeroF6 Judge Cadwalader, in the U. S. Dis
trict Court, this morning, came off a case as
follows; It was a suit by the United States
against Joseph It. Flanagan and John Welsh.
It was an action upon an official bond. The
sum in question is $lO,OOO. It was the bond of
Mr. Flanagan while doing duty as Naval Offi
cer of the port. It was alleged that by the
passage of the Tenure of Office bill Mr. Flan
agan was virtually released from his bond. He
remained two months in office after the pas
sage of this bill. He - received its emoluments.
In this, it is alleged, exists the violation of the
..bond. •
The*defence took ground that Mr. Flanagan
was regulaWy in the occupancy of the appoint
ment mutilate appointenent of his successor,
and that, therefore, he earned all the money
he had received.
The Court, said that it deemed necessary
that the official correspondence upon the sub
ject attic, oilicc after the passage of the above
act should be submitted in this' ease. He
thought that the matter should have been re
ferred to Washington for: an opinion. Ho
therefore deferred further' consideration of
the case. " • , •

7.:1 1 / 1 .4, June s.—Although the various markets hail)
famished during the week abundant material on which,
to base great activity, there has been a lack of anima
tion in the street which is ratherdifficult to account for.
Monday was a holiday, and during the balance of the
week the race courses at Jerome and Prose-set Parks at
tracted many of the prominent speculative spirits of the
Stock Exchange, while in London business has been dull
owing to the superior attractions of the Derby. Con-
Mitering, however, that Jerome• Palk-- is-connected with -
" Wall street. by telegrapli,,and that the quotations aro:
flashed everywhere', to seaside' and watering place,
throughout the summer, the general dullness presents
the same problem.
The steady movement to higher prices, the market ad
vancing on light purchases, is duo in a great measure to
the fscilities which are afforded speculative transactions
by the unusual easeandebulidancoin the moneyrnarket.
It has been difficult for lenders to employ their funds
during the week on call loans at higher than 4 per cent.,.
while where a point was made about prime coliatersds 3
- pet ciqit..Wilit the — geliefal rate, COmmercialTaper wee in -
fair request at 6 per cent, for prime double names, with
transactions as low as 54 per cent for prime bankers'
notes. hi foreign exchange the rate has touched the
specie shipping point, and in the alternative offered to
,rentitteris there has . heen a slight decliue from and a re
turn to this point. Durifig the week" a Mite ninotint of
bond bills were made, which bad the effect of slightly
lowering, rites toward the_ clone, when the prime
bankers were Selling at xtY'-sia4<gterling • • • .
The Gold market Was exceedingly dull and very steady,
the premium fluctuating only a half per cent. The spec
ulative feeling has departed from the Room, for while
there is no temptationto sell - for a decline there is little
dispo,ition to buy, in view of the comparatively light
specie shipments and the inactivity in exchange. A lit
tle advance in gold creates a flood of bond bills and lets
out produce and cotton, so that an advance in cold ac
tually produces a cause for its decline ',gain. Stress is
laid on the light cotton receipts of the past week, hut it
should not be forgotten that the crop line been promptly '
marketed title year, and that the yield so far is
over half a million bales in. excess of the yield
up to this time last year. 'This surplua is one reason
for the failure of the " bull " campaign in golds which
oas started a month or two ago. Moreover, the Secre
-tary-of-the—Treasury—willsAmilitleescommence_asenviy
as June al to pay the July interest, which will throw
8351110,004 of gold on the market, Then hulls" took up
the play interest in furtherance oft heir plans, but they
are not sufficiently supported by the street to euable
them to manage this fresh load. Indeed. it is doubtful,
troni the aspect" or - the Gold Room, whether more than
--a corporal's guard of the clique now remain in the mar
ket.
. The government market was strong and dull, prices
toward the close improving with the firmer tone of five
twenties in Europe.
