The Beecher-T1Iton Affair.

New YORK, August 3.-Judge Riley to day
rendered decision in the libel case of "The
People Us. Theodore Tilton." He states
that when he issued the warrant for the ar
rest of the defendant he had no knowledge
of the fact that the complaint had been made
without the knowledge or consent OF the
person alleged to have been libelled. lie
then, after giving the reasons for 50 doing,
concludes that it is his duty to dismiss the
complaint, not because the complainant dld
not have right to make it, but because the
person alleged to have been llhelled does not
now unite IN this prosecution. He further
states that he will not dismiss the complaint
until Wednesday morning. in order to afford
the complainant an opportunity to apply 10
the Supreme Court for writ OF mandanlus
to compel him to proceed.
The case was then adjourned by the Judge
to 10 O'Clock Of the day above mentioned,

Though the scene at the camp In the day.
time is highly interesting, it is as nothing
compared to that presented at night, when
The tents and other quarters are illumined
bv camp-fires and the arbor is in blaze of
light. Lightwood knots are used in pecu-
liar manner to effect the latter. On three
sides of the arbor there have been raised
platforms of pine sApplings, covered with
earth, aud upon them the fires are made.
Tbus you see around you camp-fires six feet
from the ground, and the light shed from
them makes the arbor bright almost as day.
There is something grand in great rell-
gious meeting held in the woods OF night,
and the picture is heightened in color and at
traciiycnc>s by the glare upon the leaves
and the dim outlines made of the roads and
paths through the trees.
The meeting will probably be over before
next Sunday. Only Il tremendous revival,
which is not much expected, will warrant
its being continued until that time.

The Mail contract.

PHILADELPHIA, August 3.-The route agent
on the railroad from Philadelphia to Balti-
more went ID his special car this morning as
usual and distributed the mail on all points
between the two cities. The 1915 and 12:45
trains carried the mail through. President
Hnckley has every reason to believe that the
Department has acce. tied the proposition.
which was that if the Government used the
company's cars "we consider that you agree
to Day us the rate aSked-vz., six per cent.
more than the present rates-and that that
rate shall cover six months, from July lst to
January 1st.'

In view of the contest for the honor OF
the Conservative nomination in this district,
shortly to be decided, [ submit one or two
facts which, it must be admitted, are appro.
pirate to be considered by the Nominating
Convention.
The majority Of Wells in this district over
Walker IN 1869 was l,Il5 votes. The next
year (1S7O) Judge Crilcner was elected BY a
plurality of 1904 over his highest Republi.
can opponent. The vote of his Two Radical
opponents was 1879 greater than Critcher
received. In other words, Critcher ran in
this race 1886 votes better than Walker old IN
1869. See World almanac of 1870.
Again, in the Twenty .ninth senatorial as
trict Cricher's majority was lO3 larger than
Walkers was in The contest Of 1869, and the
majority for Grant aud Sener in the same
district Of 722 was converted by him into q
Conservative majority of 1926 the following
year. 49,
Critcher added SAT white names to the
recistra;ion-ists in the five counties, thus
giving an example of diligence ana zeal,
which. practiced all over the state, would De
attended with the happieSt results.
These facts cannot be Ignored, AND taken
in connection with Judge Critcher's known
abilities, experience, and personal character,

that the abolition OF the gaming tables would
ruin the town OF Homburg; but, strangely
enough, it is said that the disappearance of
the elegant blacklegs who tbronged nightly
around its gaming tables has been followed
by an influx of respectable visitors, who
more than make up for the disappearance Of
gambling noblemen and the very questiona-
bic society by which they were surrounded.
