Al little did she know that rammany's troubles make

blind that they believed that a real split ex-
isted than Wickham Tilden ever did They thought
It good foundation TO build party upon they
used 1t as such. Well, they pretty active and ev
IDENTIFY determined to make the most OF this terrible
'schism" in the democratic party, they called it
But alasl there came bombsheI into their camp the
other morning when thoy read In the HERALD that His
Excelency Governor Tlden had confirmed the removal
Of Corporation Counsel Smith Their dismay at this
unexpected solution Of the supposed gravel difficulty be-
tween the two chiefs apparent laughable degree
Iders letter told as plainly as the English language
could express II that 1t only intense preoccupaon
with important affairs OF State and not hostility TO
Wickham which had prevented him from acting more
promptly In the removals And thus the supposed

anti rammanyites were left without any other "ounda
ton" Of opposition whatever
THE HUBBLE AT LAST.
Ever since that fatal piece OF news the wings OF the
EaratOga summer Drancn OF the lammany party
have been clipped, and cloud of gloom hangs over
their camp know from the best authority, that
why rlden made up his mind 10 act at last on
the removals-athough he had even moro important
matters on hand, matters affecting not only New York
but entire Statewas that he became that his
attitude toward Wckham being used by the enemies
Of Tammany TO manufacture this ''schsm in the demo
cratic party" He knew that the people might be de-
uded into the belief that such schsm existed and thus
countenance an outside organization which might be
the of placing the victory next fall into tho hands
of the republicans, somewhat in the manner In
which Havemeyer Noah Davis and Phelps obtained
triumphant election IN the most intensely democratic
city Of the United States. He believed that such
democratic defeat in Now York next fall would seriously
impair his strength q Presidential candidate before
the nation and he determined 10 prick this bubble Of
DIVISION of schsm, by fell blow Of his axe-and
the head Of the Corporation Counsel rolled into the
basket.
THE RELATION OF DINNERS PRESIDENCY.
As far as Tlden's Presidential prospects are con-
cerned, 1t safely be said that they were never
stronger than they now-in Saratoga at least But
Saratoga is just kaleidoscope Of the Union and
the whisperings the hotel piazzas will reecho In the
next Democratic Convention Tho prominent demo
the various parts of the country do not like
to publicly express their preference for Tden for appar
ent reasons they do 10 offend other candidates
and they think 1t better await the of events
But that there is strong undercurrent OF such prefer
ehce In the minds of the vast majority of influential
democrats cannot doubt, after all have seen and
heard Almost everybody likes Tlden, and, what is
better STILL nobody positively hates him In this
spect his great advantage other candidates,
such Hendricks, Thurman &c, is that he has
before played an important part in national politics. and
hence has had the opportunity to offend powerful
in the party and to commit himself TO questionable
principles Another great card in his favor appears 70
be his wealth and the lavish he makes Of it There
Is something in the luxurious atmosphere Of Saratoga
which makes people intensely appreciatve Of riches
The statesmen from afar like Tlde's good dinners his
capital old wines, his delightful hospitality, and they
cannot help being pleased at the prospect of continue
ton Of these good dinners at the White House And
thus will be that Tildens cook-artls that he
smay have not little 70 do with his election to the
Presidency.

able sentiment which has been expressed perfectly
irrespective OF party, that | think IL Is worthy OF
especial note 1t is the feeling OF intense Indignation
at the disgraceful conduct OF New Yorks three Police
Commissioners and especially of Dsbecker. Every
body desires that tho Mayor should remove them at
once, and everybody believes that Governor Tden
would confirm the removals without delay. Several
friends Of the latter have told that the Governor
has expressed himself to this effect and shares this
Indignation.
