John G. Whittier's Poem in NEemo-
Ram Of Samuel J. Tilden.
Special to the Globe.
BosToN, Aug. lathe following poem
appears in the Transcript:
8. T.-GREYsToNE, AUG. 4, 1886.
Once more, o. alI-adjusting death,
The nations pantheon opens wide;
Once more common sorrow saith
A strong, wise man has died.
Faults doubtless had he. Had we not
Our own, to question and asperse
The worth we doubted or forgot
Until we stood beside his hearse.
Ambitious cautious, yet the man
TO strike down fraud with resolute hand.
A patriot, if partisan,
He loved his native land.
So let the mourning bells be rung,
The banner droop its folds half way,
And let the public pen and tongue
Their fitting tribute pay.
Then let us VOW above his bier
To set our feet on party lies;
And wound no more living ear
With words that death denies.
John G. Whittier.

TROUBLE OVER THE TRACKS.
Large Force Employed by the Bur.
Hngton Laying Rails at
Midnight.
The Union Depot Company Objects
and Backs Down Cars--An
Injunction.

At 1880 o'clock last night force Of 800
laborers and track layers commenced the
work of putting in sixty feet of track to
Northern with the Manitoba road.
The connection was made at Third street
crossing and in order to do the work and
avoid delay, the job was commenced
late In the evening. Trouble
was anticipated from the Union
depot company, whose tracks, it was neces-
sary to cross. An hour or so after the
work began, the depot company
commenced to switch cars down on
the track to prevent the completion
| of the work, but without success. The
men worked rapidly, and at o'clock this
morning the work was all but completed.
and the superintendent of the Chicago,
Burlington u Northern road said In twenty
minutes the job would be done.
A JOB AT NIGHT
j. X. Hastings, assistant superintendent
of the Chicago, Burlington & Northern.
was on the ground in charge of gang of
$50 men. He stood on the track with
satisfied expression at $50 a. m. and
laughingly greeted a GLOBE reporter.
Said he:
This is the Chicago, Burlington & Northern
and you can say we are crossing the Duluth
tracks in the night so as not to interfere with
their trains. You can say we are doing the
work quick and doing q mighty good Job
When we began the Union Depot company
came out and showed trains on US and tried to
be little boisterous besides, but it didn't
work.
Just at this point man with lantern
rushed up to Mr.. Hastings and said:'' They
Will be here with an injunction in about an
hour" ''All right" said that gentleman
laughing, 1--WE will have the track in in
twenty minutes
M. b. Kelly. roadmaster of the Duluth
road, was on the ground in charge of
gang OF $50 men, and asSented to what
MI Hastings said. Both seemed
to feel very good about their prospect
of winning the crossing before in
terfered with, while the gang of hundreds
of men worked hard by the light of numer-
GUS lanterns and several engine headlights
which were on the ground in such a posi-
ton as to make the track as light as day.O
MIDNIGHT INJUNCTION.
At $50 o'clock this morning hack stood
in front of the office of the
clerk OF the district court. Inside the Office
there was light and G. B. Brunson sup
erintendent of the union depot with Mr..
j. w. Cathcart, the attorney, was there pre-.
pairing papers for an injunction to restrain
the Chicago, Burlington 81 Northern COM
pany from tearing up the track and laying
down its own. They were there
for some time, and when the

Discussing the Cutting Case--Einiss

silver Question.
CITY OF MEXICO. Aug. 12-The discus
sion of the Cutting case goes on in the
press and among LAWYERS, whom it inter-
ests, because of the important questi ons
raised, but there is no heat in the discus
sion. The better classes hope that the two
governments will settle the matter either
by mutually friendly adjustment or
through equally friendly arbitration. An
interesting question is propounded by
learned lawyer here, who asks if Cutting
be guilty of libel on both sides of the river,
why cannot the appellate court of the state
OF Chihuahua locate a judgment for the
crime on the Mexican and not on the Amer
lean side thus relieving the case
of its international character. The
resignation of Gen. jackson, United States
minister, is said to be positive and
general regret is expressed by resident
Americans. The minister has won the
warm approval of all classes by his dgni-
fed and prudent course The silver ques-
ton is attracting great attention here The
suggestion has been made that Mexican
dollars be exported directly to China. The
chamber of commerce is taking an active
part i'll the general discussion of the quss-
ton.

No more touching or truthful sonnet
ever fiewed from the pen of the Quaker
poet than his tribute to the memory of the
Sage OF Greystone, which is published in
this mornings GLOBE. Mr.. WH1rr1ER's
estimate of the character of the great
statesman is eminently just, as it is por-
trayed in the following stanza:
Ambitious, cautious, yet the man,

A patriot, if partisan,
He loved his native land.
And all Americans would do well to Law to

the right to test the legality or constitu-

propose to do it in legitimate manner by
appealing to the courts This is a right
that every American citizen is entitled to
enjoy and no one should find fault with
any person who attempts to exercise it,
whether he be engaged in liquor-selling or
any other pursuit. The liquor traffic is
licensed by both the state and national gov

Prohibitionists were more tolerant in their

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-In the dissolution
Of the st. Louis league club, which is ex-
pected to take place at the end of the pres
ent season, Chicago will not get left
If negotiations now under way prove sue
cessful. President Spalding has made an
offer for j. w. Glasscock, the crack short
stop of that nine and the papers are
reported to be drawn up for the transfer
Lucas claims to have received
offers of 81, 900 for Glasscocks release from
both New York and Detroit, but GIasscock
has long been anxious to join the Chicagos
and refused to go to either place
so long as there was a chance
to come here. 1t was at his request,
so the story goes, that Spalding COM
menced the dicker with Lucas
for his release. President Spalding
is away on his summer vacation,
ostensbly at Fire Island, but he is very
apt to take quiet little trips that are never
heard OF until some new deal is made In
his absence it is next to impossible to find
any definite information of the deal
but an offer of $4,000 for GIasscock's re-
lease would strike about the figure just
what changes would be made in the
nine, if Glaescock comes in, are a con-
lecture. Glasscock would, of course
play short, and Williamson would probably
be sent back to his old stamping ground at
third, which he always covered in first
class style. Though third in the list last year,
his two leaders had played in but twenty
one games each, against his Ill. Glass
cock headed the list of shortstops
last year, with but fifty errors
in 603 chances and thus far
this season he is beaten only by Force of
Washington, while in batting he is far
ahead of both Burns and Williamson. His
addition would greatly strengthen the
club. There is some talk that
efforts are also being made to bring Denny
here, but it cannot be traced to reliable
source and it is very questionable if there

600 worth of sewer and Robert street bridge

gated $21O,645, the premium amounting to
&c. sos and the accrued interest to 81. $50.
The bonds, which were sold above par, are

TOO MUCH MAGNANIM1Ty.

Senator BECK is entirely too magnani-
nous. He doesn't want the United States
TO assume an aggressive attitude toward
Mexico because he thinks it would look
like big man picking quarrel with a
small boy. Magnanimity is a good thing
in its place, but there is no virtue in big
man voluntarily lying down on his back
and allowing small boy to pluck his eyes
out What the United States wants to do
is to take an attitude that will give the
small boys in the neighborhood to under
stand that they have to behave themselves
or take licking in default thereof.

paid SIS month while he lives, whether he

whether he is rich or needy, whether he is

was preached and unfavorably considered at
the Portland meeting last year After q
years consideration it is condemned by a
