Philadelphia followed: eve have Information
Tilden subscribed $4,000 Republican campaign
fund this State.| and q message from Danville
read: "No reasonable doubt negro disturbances
this place femented by agents Tlden to get present
Democratic leaders out of the way. Man who ade
speeches to the negroes by torchght ascertaned to
be Tilden agent in Disguise"
"Did y hear what the old blackguard''done at my
place ~ shouted the Hon. Mr.. Kirk springing to his
feet and waving the stump of his cigar. IL was
having little talk with the election inspectors, in
the back part of my saloon, when who should come
nosing around but that bloody sneak, Fatty Walsh;
and now they go to say amt elected 1t is a job
put up by old man Tilden to get me out of the way
that's what it isW
"He paid S. OOO," Towled General Spinola. "to
have Pete Murrays tickets run out of my boxes.
There's no accounting for that thousand majority,
unless it a deliberate plan of Tden's to get me
out of the way Here his white collar collapsed,
and he reached out moodily for the bottle.
II have been informed" remarked Mr.. Kelly,
with fecting expression at the corners of his
mouth which of the statesmen took at first for
premOnitiOns of a smile, that Governor Cleveland
thinks Mr. Tilden has also got him out of the way,
and that Mr.. Maynard and Mr.. Manning are not
quite sure whether they toO-are not under special
obligations to the old gentleman. l have received
another letter from the Governor "-at this point
Mr.. Kelly said "Ahemw and the meeting shifted
audibly-" another letter from the Governor who
writes that it will cOnduce to his personal comfort
to have Mr.. Manning retired to private life There
is also a telegram from Mr.. Manning who says that
if 1t had not been for the interference of Gramercy
Park and the GOVERNOR
Here q dispatch was received from Connecticut,
announcing the loss of that State " 1t is believed
that Tildcn" the communication went on, has
been in secret negotiation with but by this time
the editor of The Star who had been shutting with
impotence for the past half-hOur, could hold him
self in no longer. lie brought his fist down upon
the table with a blow which made the glasses ring
and declared in n loud and excited tone that there
was no doubt that Mr. Tilden had laid out the party
right and left, had divided the Board of Aldermen
and tried to break up the Tammany organization,
and that the Clearest evidence of his malign ntlu-
cnce was the vile and ycnal course of his favorte
newspaper-a sheet so Infamous that he hestated to
name it in decent company; needless to say that he
referred to The Sun, whose idotc YELL The rascals
must go -
At these words there were symptoms of disturb
ance among tho pool-room and brandy -and-water
statesmen and the speaker fastened to disclaim the
sentiment, which he quoted with disgust only
example of the periidy of Il Tilden organ-
"Whose idiotic YELL The rascals must co. was
everywhere interpreted as reflection upon that
grand old Democratic organization which repre-
sented the bone and sncw Of the people, the hard
working sons Of honest toll" Here Mr.. Kirk APP
plauded, and all the barkccpcrs put OH a cOmpla-
cent expression. But the editor went on to de-
nOunce his " worthless and daStardy cOntem-
porary" Alderman Reilly again interfcrcd. With
his cigar tilted upward in the corner of his mouth,
and his hat tilted downward over one eye, he re-
marked as he removed his feet from the table that
he didn't see the use of so much jaw, aud he thought
the gentleman had better save his editorials 10
print in his paper. "Bully for you, Reilly" cried
an;unstcady voice.; and then, while the distinguished
journalist was vainly attempting TO pctriiy Mr..
Reilly with a glare of Indignation, Mr. John Kelly
privately ordered the janitor to lower the gas and
the meeting with some difficulty got itself down
stairs
As for Mr. Tildcn, he spent the evening alone in
his study. He wore 4 warm flannel robe pitcher
of bccftca stood on the table at his elbow; he held
in his lap a copy of Mr.. Manton Marbles Coparceny
Letter on the Electoral Commission aud he was
fast asleep.
