to yard of the University building. Tho bodies
had been at tho Morgue for tho purpose Of
dissection and being transferred to the dissect
ing of the Medical University. when,
owing to the carelcssness Of tho attend

TILDEN'S INCOME TAX.

The of the United States against Samuel J.
Tilden again appeared yesterday on the calendar of
the United States Circuit Court for argument the
demurrer to the bill of discovery od by the govern
ment. On the decision of the Court this. one Of
last legal resorts of the defence will depend whether
the defence will fall back on the Supreme Court OF
the United States or be compelled to fsht the
on the ground selected by the District Attorney.
Counsel for Mr.. Tilden will claim in their argument
that tho payment OF income made by the assessors
and also the penalties attached Is bar to the pro-
ceedings; and this question the defence desires
carry to the United States Supreme Court. Should
Judge Blatchford decide against Mr.. Tilden the
Court here will fix day for the trial of the case
upon its merits.
District Attorney Woodford, addressing the Court,
said no ready for the argument in the Of tho
United States against Samuel j. Tden.
Ex-Judgo Porter counsel for Mr.. Tilden, asked
that the stand over till Tuesday next There
reasons for this application" he said. "Oe
course the argument will not be an extensive one
and the questions ut issue none of them involved
in the question Your Honor has already passed
upon. But there considerations involved that
wo think ought tn be submitted, and do not feel in
of this Importance like taking the RESPONSE
bility Of arguing 1t without opportunity OF
ferring with Mr.. Vanderpoel. who Is associated with
me in the case"
After some discussion the Court set tho case down
for next Monday. He said he would not make tho
order peremptory. The then laid over.

Farrow's is the first clean score that has ever been

statement. her husband arrested ana confined
in the Tombs. Finding that 1t was i'm
possible to her life the medical staff
concluded to perform operation by which
the woman would be delivered of her un-
born babe. This operation took place. and the child
was brought into the world by the 'Cesaran opera

they had investigated the charges made by Inspector
Conway to the Pilot Commissioners that the steamer
Bellevue had on the 7th. Sth and 9th of October

Commissioners Cox and Brennan declared their be-

serted that they inquired into the report when their
attention was called TO it by the Pilot Commission
ers and the pilot and crew most emphatically de-
MED the story. He expressed the opinion that the
crew had swept the decks and it was the sweepngs
