TILDEN'S LETTER.

Mr.. Iildcn refused TO give any eX-
prcssions IL to his candidacy this fall
until after The nominations should
have been made at Chicago. II was
an open secret that his action de-
pended entirely upon the resnlt of

his mind not 10 allow the use Of his
name unless the republican ticket
should be such as 10 make il possible
for him to not only carry New York,
but Connecticut or Indiana. His re-
f,isal to run simply shows that he be-
lieves there is no hope for the demo
cratic party. and he is no doubt aor-
rect in his conclusions.
