TILDEN'S LETTER OF DECLINA.
TlON.

We find in the Salt Lake Tribune a
special dispatch to that paper from New
York, dated June 2, as follows:
A gentleman long and prominently
Identified in Democratic politics, assured
your correspondent this evening that Ill
den's letter of declination has been writ
ten, and will certainly be sent out by
the 18th or Doth. Tilden, he says, will
refuse to allow the use of his name on
the ground of ill health, stating that his
strength is not equal to the excitement
and harassing cares OF the campaign.
Cleveland's most intimate friends, this
gentleman states, say that he is not ID
the race. Cleveland is not favored by
Tilden, who thinks he (C~leveland) can
not carry New York because of the one
thing: John Kelly and his friends are
bitterly opposed to him. The probabili-
ties are, in his opinion, that Flower will
nave the delegation, and Tilden being
out of the way by his own ~declination,
Flower will be a favorable candidate.
Coupled with this we find, also, in the
Salt Lake Tribune, a dispatch from
Washington, dated June ?, which says:
The Post has the following editorial
to-day: "The Democratic voters of the
United States are entitled to know that
Samuel ]. Tilden is not al aspirant for
Presidential honors at their hands. He
will not be a candidate before the Chi
cage Convention, and will not accept the
nomination, even if chosen. The con.
vention will meet to deliberate and to
select the strongest man, and whether
this man is Bayard, Cleveland, Field,
Morrison, Mcdonald or Carlisle, it is for
the convention to determine.
We give these dispatches as new and
the public may accept them for what
they are worth. We have nevertheless
excellent reasons to believe that Mr..
Tilden will accept and that he will lead
the Democracy to victory next Novem.

and galleries, men stood up and waved
their hats and handkerchief, and cheered
again and again. The ladies also look part
in the demonstration, and waved their fans
and handkerchiefs. After the first storm
of applause had worn itself out it was again
renewed, and once again, and the enthusi-
ssm was as marked and intense as that
that which characterized the convention of
1880, at the time OF Garfield's nomination.
Il was fully five minutes before the Chair
man was able to resume and finish his
speech.
Stebbins Of Arizona presented a resolu-
ton to the effect that the appointment OF
Territorial officers by the President Of the
United States should be from actual resi-
dents Of such Territories. Referred to the
Committee on Resolutions.
A delegate from California presented
resolution to the effect that the Commits
sioner of Agriculture be made q Cabinet
officer. Referred to the Committee on
Resolutions.
The Woman's Suffrage resolution was
presented and referred to the Committee
on Resolutions.
At 1920 P. M. the convention adjourned
till 7 P. M.
800 P. M.-When the convention re-
assemblies this evening the report of the
Committee on Credentials, including that
of the contested Virginia delegation, will
be received and action taken. 1t is probs-
BILE that no other business will be disposed
Of. The report Of the Committee on Plat
form will next be in order, and If it is not
reached tonight it will probably come up
before the convention the first thing in the
morning.

BosroN, June 4.-Blsine took the noon

that the Blaine men will, at his request,
support General Sherman il he (Blaine) ID
not nominated.

orr.CIAL FACTS AND FIGURES.

Surplus for the year.---. ."- sos''oio u
The earnings for the first four months
of the present year are greater than for
the corresponding months OF last year.
The SIS, 500, l25 43 is approximately
Der cent on $50, 600, 600. the nominal
stock capital of the corporation. 1t is
said by those who know that the entire
Western Union outfit can be replaced for
$50. 600, 900, or maybe $40, DOC, 900.
Hence we see that on their money act
ually invested Mr.. Gould and the rest
milk the public to pay them from Is to
% per cent per annum. This, too, when
on good security, can be readily got for
from 3 to 5 per cent per annum. Take
the latter figure and cast up the interest
for a zeal on say $50, 600. coo. We find
it to be 81, 500, 900. This would be a
good, fair profit on the capital really in
vested. Deduct this 81, 500, 900 and from
what the monopoly scoops in from the
public (defenseless for the present. and
we see that the Western Union Company
collected last year the prodigious sum OF
s. 1909, l25 43, which amount may be
fairly set down as a tax paid to said
company for interest on a fictitious in
yestment.

upon to determine many important ques-
tIons during the present year, notably
those of lighting the city, and the eXten-
sion of its water system. OF the former
the question to be determined is whether
it will be more renumerative enterprise
for the city to own the plant for lighting
lis streets or to retain the contract system
now in vogue. AS to the latter it will
also be called upon to legislate upon the
eXpediency of such an extension OF our
water system as will permit the city works
to supply the thickly populated districts
lying just on our borders. These enter
prises, if it be decided the city shall enter
upon them, involve large expenditure
of money, but as they also involve an
increased revenue to the treasury which
may be applied to the liquidation of our
liabilities [ need only suggest the disposi
ton of the funds arising tlOm the sale of
the old reservoir groundsin this direction
to accomplish the object named.
Upon the whole our citizens have cause
for congratulation-the future Of the city
is assured, and | may venture upon the
prediction that with the increased rail-
road facilities thrust upon as, within
the next decade Harrisburg will rank as
the third city of the Common
wealth. A great duty however devolves
upon the municipal government-while
others are helping us We must
help ourselves, and by our own efforts
contribute to our Importance. With this
object in view, must emphatically urge
upon the Councils the necessity of offer
ing such inducements to what are known
as small manufacturers as will make it an
object for them to locate among us. In
the accomplishment of this object you
will have my most cordial support.

HARRIsBURG. Dee 81 1Ssq

HARRISBURG, Dec. 81, 1883.
To the Inspectors DGuphin COUNTY Prison
GENTLEMEN: Herewith is my annual report
and record Of diseases treated in the Dau-
phin county prison for the year just closing.
1t will be seen that the sum total of cases
amounts to three hundred and seventy.
eight. The number of visits made was two
hundred and forty-seven, of which seven
were night visits. With the exception prob
ably of some of the bronchial affections Il
the other diseases originated outside of the
prison walls.
There are various suggestions arising,
which, could they be carried out, would
greatly tend to an improvement in the sani-
tary condition of the prison, but at this time
when there is being heavy outlay by the
County Commissioners in the reconstruction
of the almshOuse, the present condition CT
affairs must continue.
Two deaths occurred during the year-both
from disease of the heart-one having been
brought to the prison in a moribund condi-
tion-the other in almost q similar situation,
If we may judge from previous history of
the case.
1t may be here stated that the health
of the prisOnt rs who are conviCtS has been
unuHu ually good, most of the sickness being
confined to those committed for trial, or to
Vagrants. Of the latter class, nine-tenths
are ailing, while one-half of other admis
sions reqE.re treatment. As usual there
are number of epiIeptics. These poor un-
fOItunates, it is to be hoped, will hereafter
be taken to the almShOuse instead of being
committed to prison. The latter institu-
tion is not the proper place for this class of
patients.
The prison has been kept clean and neat
the food has been abundant and withaIl
well-cooked. The complaints, if any, are
from those who are not accustomed when
out of prison toas good fare.
In conclusion beg to return my thanks
to the inspectors, and especially to the
Secretary of the Board, Or. George W.
Porter, who have seconded every effort
II ade to ameiorate the condition of the uu-
fortunate sick. To the Warden, MatrOn and
Underkceper, | cannot but acknowledge
their kindly aid in numerous instances.
Respectfully submitted,
