WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, October 81, 1874

Hon. Frank Hurd, hardest Of hard money
Democrats, elected to Congress from the
Toledo district Of Ohio, has just been sin
tervlewedn in New York. OF the Demo
cratic presidential nomination for 1880 Mr..
Hurd said ~ believe Mr.. Thurman to be
the proper man for the Democrats to nomi.
nate He is, in fact, the only man who can
carry the state of Ohio against popular
Republican candidate, and if the party
thinks the electoral vote Of that state neces-
sary to elect its presidential candidate il will
nominate him"
That Mr.. Hurd speaks the opinion Of
Ohio Democrats generally, and Of vast
number Of Eastern and we'll as Western
Democrats, is certain Mr. Thurman is
certainly without regard to politics, the
most influential member of the present Sen
ate. At the last session of Congress, espec-
tally, was this perceptble in great deal Of
the legislation, In the Presidency or else
where he would reflect credit upon the
country.
If there be any truth in the rumor now
current that Mr.. Tilden will refuse to allow
the use Of his name in connection with a
nomination for any Office, his determination
was probably reached before what is spok-
en- Of as the cipher telegram exposure. Mr..
T. is not the man to withdraw in the face
Of SANDER. One version of the story of
Withdrawal Is that he communicated his in
tention to Mr.. Hendricks, q year or so ago,
when the two met at Saratoga. But, how
ever various the versions it may be safely
said that it is current belief here that Mr.,
T. has written the letter, and that he can
not be considered as in the way Of any 9TH
er gentleman who desires or whose friends
him to be a candidate,
Those who read the Radical bluster
about the congressional and other gains in
the November states, should remember that
most Of it originates with Eugene Hale,
chairman of the Republican Congressional
Committee, They should also remember
that, few days before his 5000 majority
was turned into 1900 minority. In the Sep.
TENDER election, he boosted that he should
be elected by larger majority than before.
That is the kind of prophet he is Another
significant fact is that much was expected,
lately, from. the changed attitude Of the ad.
minisration as to Southern affairs, and from
stories Of outrages in the South. Bnt in
both these things it is becoming plain that
the hope was deluson, as 1t should be.
If the Democrats lose congressman here
and there through local dissensions in
strong Democratic districts, the loss will be
more than made up in the steady and IRE.
sistable tendency of people all over the
country to quit the Radical party,
Mr.. schurz made his second speech Of
the campaign in Boston on Monday even.
ing. As in his Cincinnati speech, he seems
not to have advanced any new idea on the
finances the subject on which he talked,
but he grouped together skillMlly the
points made by Others, and this with his
attractive manner of speech, seems to have
pleased the Bostonlans Mr.. Schurz should
devote his time to making speeches.
No man not born to our language and
habits has ever been more popular than be.

The first snow Of the season, except q
few fakes that fell early in December,
began falling here a little before noon
yesterday. The fakes we're very large
and heavy aud fell straight to the ground
except when varied by the wind, which
first blew from the east and later
in the day from the northwest.
The ground was already soaked with
water and the streets we're running with
slush; much of the snow, therefore, dis
solved as soon as it touched the ground.
Still it accumulated toa depth Of three
or four inches in places, and before sun.
down the street-ears began to make very
slow trips and people crowded aboard as
If life and death depended upon max
ing the trip Upon some particular car.
Those who we're at the Centennial saw
something like it, if they ever took a car
for the grounds. A number OF cars got
off the track and many people had to
get out and foot il home. There we're
ladies out, even at that late hour, with
bundles and children, as though it had
been a day for shopping and visiting
The snow fell with unsbated fury until
eight or nine o clock, ard very fewi if any
cars we're running after that time. The
hsckmen took advantage Of the glorious
occasion, and refused before night to carry
passengers anywhere for less than a
dollar a head, although the law only
allows fifty cents within the city limits.
All kinds of vehicles, even drsys, were
in demand far beyond the supply. The
men who had to come up to q lodge
meeting from the suburbs had a nice
promenade Of it both ways. II the
snow had remained it would have been
six or eight inches deep.
This morning the street cara crept in
after eight o'clock at q snail pace in the
wake of primitive snow.plows, and early
business men had to walk. This is
doubtless the only city in the Union
where a three-inch susw storm blocksdes
the street cars. Such things never hap.
pen longer than q few minutes in the
Northern cities, WHARF they have big
SHOWS every winter. Last winter we had
| snow a foot deep or more about this time
which kept the cars from running nearly
> a week merely because the company
was too close-6stsd or old fogy to pat q
force on the track and clean it of. The
, same fine policy seems likely to prevail
this winter.
To day business is greatly impeded
especially on Front Row and on thl
levse. 1t is the mud and slush, rathe
than the snow, that business men snC
work people have to contend with. Thl
sun is shining out part of the time
: and by tomorrow the snow will hav,
