WASH1NGTON, OCt 31.-A card from Tennessee re-
iaiyc TO Southern claims, published here to-day by
the 1iden Literary Bureau, is regarded as absurd.
Among the Signcrs of this card, which approves Of
Gov. Tilden's claims letter, and protests that the
people OF the South have no eXpectatiOG or hope of
being reimbursed for these Southern claims, is the
name Of H. T. Riddle. Mr. Riddle is the author If
the famous Riddle BILL" which has performed so
prominent part in the campaign. In that bill he
proposed compensation to all citizens for the usc
occupation of their property by the United States
during the war, and provided that the affidavit Of
the claimant, supported by the competent testimony
of one reputable citizen, should be sufficient proof
to establish such use or occupation. Loyalty is not
made condition Of payment. Present citizenship
and the oath Of one citizen besides the claimant
TO be all the credentials required. Mr.. Riddle has
been stumpng his district Furthermore, and telling
his constituents in Tennessee publicly that If the
Democratic party is successful every person who has
any claim of any description for the of property,
even 10y picket line, will be paid vet. Mr.. Riddles
name appears to-day conspicuous among the signers
Of the stereotypcd circular of the Literary Bureau
approving Gov. Tllden's anti-cam letter.
