TILDEN, OR TILDEN'S BONES.
ITO Be, or Not to Be; That Is the Question

WASHINGTON, May 1-Since Tammany's
Endorsement Of the cold ticket" last week,
nothing has been talked Of here in Demo-
Within a few days assurances have been re-
ceived through the Indiana Representatives
in Congress that Hendricks will not consent
to run again for Vice President, and that IL
the "old ticket" talk Is continued much
longer, he will formally decline-perhaps
even moro ccldly than in 1880. These state
ments have not dampened the ardor Of the
"old ticket" shouters, however, but 1t has
compelled them to revise their calculations
With Hendricks out Of the way, . number of
candidates for Vice President have appeared
on the scene. The most prominent of these
nois, and author Of the defunct tariff bill.
Morrison, 1t Is said, would not only accept
the Vice Presidential nom nation, but some
OF his friends declare he Is working hard to
agitate the strong features of ticket COM
posed Of Tilden and Morrison. Besides be-
ing strong intellectually, such ticket would
unite on one platform the present discord-
ant elements Of the Democracy. Tildsn
would carry New York, and Morrison the
doubtful States Of the West. 1t IL generally
acknowledged that Morrison can and will
acceptably fill the place made vacant by
Hendricks probable withdrawal There
seems to DO no doubt that Tilden will be ton
dered the Democratic nomination. The
State conventions are SO generally declaring
for him that congressman who lately desired
10 reform the tariff in opposition to his ad.
vice are rapidly giving in their adhesion. 1t
Is now confidently predicted that within q
week after the Republican Convention adj
Journs, nothing will be heard but Tilden. A.
one Of the Democrats in the House exp pressed
1t this afternoon, "We will nominate rilden,
certain; and IL he dies before July 9Th, We
will nominate his bones"

LAND GRANT FoRFEITURES.
The Senate Committee Agree to Repor. For
fixture Bills.

WAsHINGroN, May A.-Tbe Senate CON-
mittee on public lands to day decided to re-.
port bills forfeitng the land grants opposite
the uncompleted portions of the Northern
Pacific main line and branch lines, and the
Atlantic Il Pacific railroads. Senator Plumb,
chairman Of the com mittee, says 1t 10 impos.
sible to calculate the number Of acres In
volved In both cases. Some land was taken
up before the charter was granted, and In
the case Of the Atlantic &c Pacific road, was
not constructed in the direction contempla-
ted. Nominally, the Senator thinks, the
forfeiture Of the Northern Pacific lands will
amount to thirteen million acres, aud the
Atlantic & Pacific to thirty-six million acres.
Senator Slater, author Of the bill, says the,
actual number Of acres forfeited along the
line Of the Northern Pacific 10 seven million,
which Is three million acres less than pro-
posed by the House committee on public
lands. Senator Slater's bill further provides
that lien lands hereafter selected, IL occupied
BY bsna fde settlers, shall be sold at $l.25
per acre for 100 acres.

which he was using all his own means. The
impression now is by reporters who have in
vestigated the matter that the President Of
the Marine Bank, having made enormous
loans to Grant Il Ward without proper in
vestigation Of their reliability, Is endeavor-
ing to shit the responsibility for his conf.
dence In them to the shoulders of General
Grant, and that that is ell there IL In 1t. The
developments concerning banking institu-
tions that come to light succeeding their fall

stockholders, officers and all concerned, ex-
cept the guilty party or parties, and are

that Ward was dsceiving the Grants and ev-
cry body else while specializing away their
fortunes, and that they we're not more su'pi'

A COURT HOUSE DESTROYED,
How the Records of Indictments were De-
stroyed In Illinois.

SHAwSEETowN,I Ills, May 2l.--The latest
fruit Of long existing feud Of many fami-
lies in Harding county is the burning of the
Court House at Elizsbethtown on last Mon &.
day, together with everything In 1t, includ-
ing the records. Harding has no railroad or
telegraph, and the news has just reached this
city. Starting many years ago, between two
or three individuals, this trouble has en-
braced . large number offanilies. Murder
after murder has succeeded and the trouble
eliminated in vendetta, perhaps unequaled
by the noted Williamson county outlawry of
few years ago. A majority of the people
were always lawabiding, however, and final
ly they began to get law In operation. Re-
Gently nearly 100 indictments were recorded
and to destroy these and defeat the legal
processes under way, was doubtless the mo-
tive underlying the act of the incsndaries.
Some time ago newspaper Office was burned
and anonymous threatening letters have
been no uncommon thing.
