How the Late Gov. Ti1den Disposed Of His
Property.

How the Late Gov Ti1den Disposed ofHis
Property.
A dispatch from New ork says: The will
OF S. j. Tilden was read at Greystone in
the presence of all the relatives except
those in the west. The document is q long
one, containing about ten thousand words.
George w. Smith are named as executors
and trustees. All OF Mr.. Tilden's kindred
are generously provided for in the will.
The whole estate is placed in the hands OF
the executors as trustees. Each heir is to
receive an equal share in the line of his or
her consanguinity. That is, nephews
and nieces receive equal amounts,
and their children certain amounts,
but they are to receive only the income
derived from an equal separate specific
sum, the principal at their death to be dis
could not state. None of his relatives,
except Mrs. Mary B. Hilton, his sister,
are given any specific bequest forever. To
her he bequeaths the residence No. SO West
Thirty-eighth street. and the sum OF $780,
600 to live upon. All of his real estate
except this place is placed in his executors
hands to be disposed OF as they see fit.
Greystone and the Gramercy Park prop
erty fall under the same rule. The execu-
GOTS are uFSU charged WIN Une duGy Oh
setting apart for his relatives the sums
named for them, from which the several
incomes are to be derived. This done,
it becomes the duty OF the executors
and the trustees to carry out his
wishes regarding certain public bene-
fciaries. They are charged with the. duty,
first, of establishing free library
in the village OF New Lebanon, also in
Yonkers, and ifin the discretion OF the trus-
tees they choose to establish free brary
in this city they maydo SO, and if not they
are at liberty to use the fund that free
library would cost in the promotion OF
any charitable or educational cause. A
great deal is left to the discretion OF the
trustees. In general terms the relatives
are handsomely taken care of. The estate
is not as large as estimated by some peo-
pie. The value has been placed at $1O,-
100000, but Mr.. Bigelow says this is
double it's actual value. AS regards
public library for this city, that mattsr is
left to the discretion OF the trustees, both as
location, size, equipment and cost Hence
the city will have library if the trustees
think that the funds in their hands cannot
be used for the public to better advantage.

Gov. Curtin's committee on strikes,

Gov. Curtin's committee on strikes,
which Travelled a good deal and took
volumes of testimony did not report
to Congress. The committee claims
jthat.it was lacking the evidence OF the
chief officer of the Southwestern rail-
road system on which the great strike
occurred, and that no report could be
made without that. Authority has
been given the committee to continue
it's work during the recess, but it is
safe to assume that nothing will be
done, unless there should be more
labor disturbances OF a serious char
acter.

In response to urgent kilograms from Bel
fast this evening four hundred soldiers, some
OF them being on furlough, were SUNNI oned
by bugle in the streets, and were

was treated and then discharged,
while numerous slight cases were
retained Twenty-six cases OF serious in
jury are reported, one OF the sufferers being
a boy who has since died. The total num-
Der OF persons dead SO far is believed to be
six. The number wounded is unknown,
but will probably reach two hundred. In
spector General Reed, with small escort,
was surrounded by mob in Lodge street
and was obliged to run for his life.

The trial Of the Chicago anarchists
is likely to be spun out for a week or
two yet, and then the decision of the
jury is by no means certain in any of
the cases, though the preponderance
OF testimony is on the side of the

Coupons.

The State papers continue to pay their
respects to the coupon circulars and the
tone OF their articles is highly encouraging.
The Piedmont pirginian says
"The people must not follow the advice
contained 10 these circulars. IL Is unques-
tionably In the power OF the taxpayers to
barass the Commonwealth beyond measure
and do great damage to all its interests. II
Is equally within their power to quickly
aud finally settle the publc-debt question
by paying their taxes in money and not in
coupons. Can patriotic citizen hesitate
as TO his coursei"
The Marion Conservative Democrat, after
showing how all our institutions must sui-
fer by the payment Of taxes in coupons,
says:
"We hope that no man In Smyth county
win knowingly cripple these public inter.
ests by the payment Of his tax with cou-
pons. No citizen OF Virginia can afford TO
cripple the financial interests OF bis State
for the paltry sum OF few dollars into his
own pocket"
The Allegheny Sentinel remarks that the
"generous" coupon-sellers are impor-
tunate. but adds:
"we are sure, from converse with a
number OF our leading citizens, that Ale
ghany county Is not behind her sisters in
The possession Of that patriotic and wise
spirit that condemns the Use OF the coupon
In payment OF taxes"
Keep up the agitation.

The Anarchists.

Mr.. BgrcnER's theory that the United
STATES can digest the Anarchist seems TO
have been about as poorly digested by the
reverend gentleman as was his evolution
theory. All The evidence goes 10 show
that gunpowdcr Is about the only thing
that can successfully "digest" such
cattle, and 1t would DC well that the
Anarchists be made 10 understand in
the beginning that the law-abiding people
generally Of this country are OF that opin-
ion, The Anarchist question is more
serious one than most people suppose.
MyzgRoFr, the great Russian Nihilst, made
the statement that the Anarchists were as
strong In this country as In most European
countries. His estimate was that there
were $4,000 Of them in Europe, divided as
follows: 10000 In Germany, 1900 in
Switzerland, 10000 in Austria, 1000
in Russia, 10000 in Bohemia, 49,
900 in hungary, and 5000 in France.
These figures are understood TO refer TO
what may be termed active Anarchists.
His estimate for the United States was TO-
600. OF whom 5000 were credited to ChIca-
20, $500 to New York, and $500 to other
cities, principally Milwaukee, Pittsburgh,
Philadelphia, Cincinnati, st. Louis, aud
Buffalo. His figures for the United States
were considered exaggerated in certain
quarters, but recent developments have
shown that he was not far out OF the
way. Nearly all, II not all, the Anarchists
in this country are slavs-people who have
been giving trouble for centuries wherever
they have gained a foothold, and whose
record Is long story Of bloodthirstiness,
rebellion. discOrd, and intrigue. In the
chronological division Of the human family
the Slays stand out preeminent In repre-
senting brutality, and their deeds almost
Justify belief In the fable regarding their
descent. When not fighting other races
they were quarrelling among themselves,
until finally race unity ceased, and they
split up into a number of tribes. To-day
these tribes are separated by political or
ganization and different dialects, and are
the curse OF eastern Europe. But the old
brutal, bloody, and insurrectionary instincts
remain, and are as much part OF
the nature OF the Slavs OF to-day as they
were Of the nature OF their ancestors whose
pastime, 1t is alleged, consisted in sucking
the blood OF those whom they slew in bat
tie. II is from these tribes-from the PRO
letariat Of these tribes-that we have drawn
the men who killed and wounded sixty.odd
policemen in Chicago recently, and who
would have sacked the city had they been
strong enough. 1t is the scum OF these
tribes that Mr.. BEECHER proposes
TO digest by incorporating it into
our social and political system. We are
afraid that Mr.. Beecber's faith in the civil
izing power of American institutions has
gotten bad and dangerous start upon his
common sense or that he has so far forgotten
his dignity as to attempt TO perpetrate
huge Joke.

Yesterday our municipal election for

came oil. And as we had five candidates
for mayor, two for recorder, and three for

misunderstanding between the two Demo-

corder, who submitted their claims TO a
urinary last week. the Democratic vote
was not q united one. and hence, though it
was supposed politics would not enter into
this election good streak did get in,
the result was that while one party was di-
yided the other was pretty solid and sue
ceeded. The following were elected e.

ROBBED or Hen INFANT son.
Freaks of a SOt.Dfsant English Lord
iiDg-Mxrrtese, Divorce, and
Abduction.

An OItonville (Minn.) special TO the He
raid says: L. Wickham Is the son OF an
English Lord. A few years since he came
TO Ortonvile gay young bachelor. After
a time he began the erection on the lake
shore, in the most romantic and beautiful
location, about five miles above this city, OF
a magnificent dwelling, a sort Of ieudal
castle, in imitation OF his ancestors noble
halls. The castle was built, but, 1t Is al
legged. manly at the expense OF gullible
merchants in the neighboring towns, who
have ever since kept the castle in state OF
siege in an effort to collect for material fur
nished. When the house was completed
MIR. Wickham made Miss LencerbOX, a
daughter Of Captain Lencerbox, OF this
city. its mistress. The wedding was cele-
bratedwith considerable fctdt in the castle
by the lake abou. year ago.
Harassed by importunate creditors, the
erratic scion OF nobility soon after his mar.
rage hied himself TO Europe, leaving the
wife 10 guard the castle in his absence
Upon his return he instituted a suit for and
obtained divorce from his wife, who, with
her infant son, took up her residence with
her parents in this city. The last chapter
in the drama was enacted yesterday, when
Wickham stole into town, and. taking adj
yantage Of the mothers absence, made
descent upon the Lencerbox residence and
kidnapped the child and decamped. The
whereabouts OF the fsther and child are al
present unknown, and the bereayed mother
is In an agony OF uncertainty and woe.
