WASHINGTON, oct. 31.-The Washington
city lobby and army OF claimants are greatly de-
moralized by MIR. Tilden's letter on Southern
claims. 1t seems to be pretty well Understood
by them thst Mr.. rden has Will OF his own,
and me MS what he saws. The Republican lob
hyists are particularly indignant that MIR. Tilden
should have taken the ground he has. and hold
II 10 bs ample reason way he should be defeat
ed. IL l. noticed here as a significant fact that
although many Of Haves's NOrthe n supporters
have been deuounCing Southern claims, Gov.
Ha es himself his kept very quiet on the sub
tect, and Is perfectly Tree To sign any hiIl that
NAV 10 presented to him depicting the Treasury.
HIS Southern supporters are al dabhlcrs In

porters are the leaders and head devils Of the
