SUSPICIOUS AGAINST TWEED.
A Washington despatch discredits all re-
ported confessions of Tweed and the here
tofore printed statement of the manner of
his escape, which the documents in the
state department are said to prove at least
unreliable. The impression is said to be,
on the part of government officials, that
Tweed is still trying to shield his old pals
under the specious plea of alleged confes-
sion and there is an increasing suspicion
that Tweeds secrets are too important, and
their revelations would compromise too
many persons too allow of his being pressed
to the wall, therefore he will be allowed to
make partial confession to attack innocent
or uninfluential men, and get off without
any effectusl or thorough revelations.
TILDEN's HAND In THE GAME.
The Tribune says 1'ilden retains the
most startling points Of the ring tIsclos-
ures, and brings them to bear for political
or personal objects. 1t instances the case
of clerk refusing to sign Comptroller
Green's salary warrant. Tilden published
facts duplicating that clerk in ring matters.
Next day the clerk fled.
Forty original checks of Tweed's, which
were paid to Sweeny, Hank Smith and
Hugh Hastings, are stated to be in posses
sion of the man who wrote Tweed's con-
fession.

with Catholic organizations. Rev. Father
Quinn delivered and appropriate address,
and the cardinal bestowed his blessing on
the voyage and babe them God speed.

BOLD BUT UNSUCCESSFUL OPERATION.
Two thieves mounted a truck loaded
with twelve cases Of dry goods worth $10,-
900, standing on Broadway Friday and
drove off. Capt. Mccullough, noticing the
neat clothing of the drivers suspected and
followed them. The thieves sprang from
the truck and fled. Both escaped, Capt.
Mccullough having fallen while following
one of them over fence. 1t is reported

Col. John w. Dix, son of ex-Gov. Dix,
whose death is announced was born ia AL
bany in 1882, while his father was adult
ant general. He was an officer in the as
sistant treasurers office, and was entrusted
with the payment of interest on the public

fnE wooDIN INVESTIGATION.
The parlor in the ground floor of the
Fifth Avenue hotel, set apart for the use of
the committee Of the senate appointed to
investigate the charges against Senator
Woodin, was thrown open Saturday morn
ing. Beyond the arrival of numerous rep
resentatives of newspapers, there was moth
ing to indicate that an important inquiry
was pending. On the table were piles of
printed forms of summonses. The senator's
held secret session and at IL o'clock set
out for Ludlow street Jail to see Tweed.
On returning to the FifEh Avenue hotel
the committee examined Hugh j. Hastings

Advertiser, was acquainted with Woodin
In 70 and II; had been acquainted with
Tweed for years; during 1870 their rela-
tions were intimate took no active inter-
est in,the charter bill but was interested 10
its passage; had some transactions with
Tweed but not with reference to the pass
age of the charter IN the spring of 1870
he gave me check for $4,000; it was a
check growing out of business transactions
purely; no money was paid to me by
Tweed for influence and votes in the SEN
ate he said nothing TO me about Waodin ;
never received money from anybody to in
fluence Woodin's vote the only truth in
the Worlds statement ia reference to my
self 10 that Tweed gave me check for
$50. 1000; it is false that it had anything to
do regarding Woodini Tweed and myself
