Tyler Meeting in Schenectady.
Correspondence Of The Tribune.
a Tv!er meeting was last week held in this city
scHENEcTApY, August 81.


A Tyler meeting was last week held in this city,
but was too ,riling an affair 70 deserve notice, if
its endorsement By the Loco-Foco paper here as
q" large and enthusiastic " did not demand an OK
pnsure Of thu ridiculous farce. The meeting was
composed of seven officers, and, at most, twice as
many.spectators half OF whom attracted BY
curiosity alone and the remainder were Loco
Foco ofice-hoders, as at least IRE of the
seven officers ofthe meeting The Chairman was
the Loco District Attorney; the three Vice-Pres-
dents we're composed of a Town-Superyisor, Poor
master, and Ex-Alderman and one of the Secreta-
ries was DEPUTY Canal Collector 4 string of
windy resolutions was introduced by the newly
appointed Loco-Foco Canal Collector, and after
some talk digni6ed with the name of speeches,
they broke up for want of any thing TO say or do
At no time were there more than twenty persons
in the room. Such is fair specimen of Tyler's
popularity.
Our friends here feel in high spirits at our fail
prospects They promise the city to u.s. as beyond
any possible doubt. Nothing has more powerfully
contributed to this than the Of our Loco
Foco rulers in relation to the Erie Canal, whose
importance ard claims citizens know how to
appreciate The city has fer the last year been
kept in state of the greatest confusion and dsor
der by the datoty and vaccillatiug movements of
the Canal officers, and now all the work is sus-
pended, and not only are our city interests neg
ected and deemed unworthy thought, but those
Of the State suffer equally. Bridges are left in
halffnished state, without the necessary covering
" siding, and necessary consequence, the tim
Der is already splitting, cracking, AID decaying,
and their duration will be scarcely three years in
stead of thirty. The walls beside our bridges are
eft at half their intended height without Gaping,
md are thus exposed TO the rain, which insnuates
it.ef into the unprotected joints. and separates
and loosens the stones of the walls, which will
soon become mere ruins. Many more such spe-
cinens nigh, be adduced. but these are enough as
examples of Loco.F oco management and economy.

DANGEROUS BALLOON EXPERIMENTAL me-
neurological society in Paris recently sent up a
balloon filed with gas produced by water thrown
IN burning coal. This was to avoid the expense
Of employing sulphuric acid. The balloon, which
was very large one, went off from M. Seligue's,
in the Bettignolles. NJ. Dupus Delcour, an old
,cronaut assembled in it. He had not assembled
lar, however, when he was almost stiAed by the
gas, as it escaped by the aperture below. The
balloon soon descended of itself, and NJ. Delcour
began to recover, until by the heating of the bal
loon the gas cnveloped NJ Dclcour, and again
left him insensible. Being bled, however, he re-
covered. 1t was the oxide of carbon in the gas
which rendered it SO aelcterious.

A TrifIing Quarrel and Tragic End.
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, }
5lh January, 1912.

A man named Durham has been committed
to jail in Mercer county, n. J., for killing his
wife in quarrel as to the mode in which the tea
should be made, she insisting upon its being
made as his mother made it, aud she refused to
mingle it in any other than the way her mother
taught her. Becoming excited, he struck her
with his fist, and knocked her down. Her head
struck against something hard, and her skull was
fractured. She fingered in'd;stress about ten
days The husband communicated the facts to
no one, but some neighbors visiting the house
found her derang hiding herself under the bed,
with her head very much swollen. Her death,
it is alleged, might have been prevented by pro-
per treatment"
