There has not been much specific iDforma-
about the strength of the sofmOney faction IN ms
State recently though the Call FOR convention has set
people to thinking about it, The heeH0Ven Union pre-
tends to have authority for the following iportant
statement: I'VE happen TO know that Sammy Liiden
quite nervous about the greenback movement aud would
ye two or three barrels OF money to buy up Cooper
and Cary win poll enough Democratic votes IN New
York City and Brooklyn to defeat the Tden electoral
ticket In Empire State granting that the stalcn 81
cIcctad by over so OGO majority over DIX OF course
we do not believe this to be tie case.
Prof. W. G.. Sumner of Yale College has
published long statement OF his reasons for supporting
Gov Tiden; he does to have heard that Hen
bricks on the ticket for he says nothing aboht It, e
says he feel respect foe the candature OF Gov

machine" Mr.. Tilden the contrary, was opposed
by worst elements Of his party and was nominated
In spite Of thom. On the subject OF finances the PROBES

before any other 1t appears to Inc that hr Tden has
shown more correct detailed, statesmanike knowledge

part OF H. and disapprove of any concession ON that
point in form or substance, by Mr. TEden or anybody
else know that the sOftmOney Democrats have
claimed that Tden has surrendered ON the currency
question and the Republicans have hastenef to accept
their authority as conclusive on that point Mr. Tdens
opinions on this point not new were they first
placed before the public in his letter but II he does not in
that document lay down hardmoney doctrines, thcn
language has NJ meaning and could not express hard
money doctrines myself. Mr.. Hayes has madea very
distinct avowal that be will resist the repeal Of tie Re-
sumption act unless something better Is put IN lts place.
and II he elected shall certainly await with generous
confidence n fuflmcnt W that pledge Tie dinculiy IS
