Expose on Government expenses for Southern commission
The Boston Post reveals letters showing Treasury officials and a bank cashier financing a Senate-deficit commission to Southern states. The plan, tied to George A Baker and Charles F Conant, sought three to four thousand dollars via an advance, with later repayment from Congress. The affair, linked to John Sherman, hints at impeachment risk and impropriety in pre-appropriation spending.

Death of Berlin-born king who ruled 1851 1866
John A. MacGahan notes the death of the Berlin born monarch born May 27 1819 son of King Ernest Augustus whose mother was a sister of Queen Louisa of Prussia. He married Princess Mary of Saxe Altenburg in 1843 and ascended the throne in 1851. His unpopular and ultraconservative reign led to ministerial upheavals and a pro Austrian stance during the 1866 war, resulting in Prussia annexing his territory and his exile to Vienna. He later agreed to indemnity terms but Prussia suspended payment pending better conduct.
