law, John r. Cleveland, at No. ~ Cottage place,
yesterday, after which took the Bleecker street
cars Tor the Tribune Office. It was stockholders
day at the Tdbu,ae and the old gentleman, although
no longer on the paper, holds to his stock in the
concern as the most precious material treasure he
possesses next to his family. He climbed the
rickety Tri1une stairs up to the fourth nOor and

nected with the paper to Mr.. Reid's rooms unless
they sent 10 their cards first, and his reverence for

way and let his chief pass uncnai'eneeu, ,ud Md'
