think that he is to blame as much

seems that the other party was re-

We are satisfied now that the first

fore the Court OF Appes and the
public will perhaps soon IN wheth
er New York city is to have the
great free library which Mr.. Tilden
intended or not. The case has been
four years in the Courts, the decis-
ions so far being about evenly divi-
ded. Two Judges of the Supreme
Court have decided in favor of the
will and two against. 1t now goes
before the Court OF Appeals. with
the chances in favor Of decision
against the contestants. There are
now about s5, 900, 900 to DO devoted
to the library in case Of favorable
decision. This will enable the ex-
ecutors to establish the best library
in the country. This 10 the out
come we all wish for, and 1t is to b.
regretted that Mr.. Tilden's rela-
tives should persist so long in try
ing to thwart his evident intentions.
Even as it is, they are well provided

The founding of new Club in
this city to be composed entirely of
millionaires is exciting great deal
OF comment among not only those
who are eligible. but those who are
not. The movers in the enterprise
have secured dozen lots near the
main entrance to Central Park, at
9Th Ave-, and seth St., where it is
Intended to erect the finest club
house in the country. A rivalry
has sprung up between the different
Clubs, as consequence, and each
one is vicing to obtain the largest
membership and most elegant quar-
ters. The Colonial Club, which is
two years old, is going to build
new house, the conversions of
which was laid on Saturday. 1t
will be situated on We t 72nd ST.,
and will cost s275, 900. Many of
the other Clubs are preparing to
take III members by the hundred,
but it will probably be some time
before the majority of our people
will join.

A DARING PLAN.
The Kansas Alliance Considering
q Startling Proposition.


KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 1O.-Since
the Farmers Alliance has taken hold OF
affairs in Kansas many surprising
things have been done, but the most
daring plan which has been evolved by
that body is reported scheme
to build trunk railroad line across the
state. 1t is said that this proposition
will be made the issue of the next DO
litical fight in Kansas by the Alliance.
The plan is for the state govern
ment to construct trunk line
about $50 or 800 miles in length
and for the counties TO build
a network of branches that will
touch every point i'll the state. 1t is said
that the right of way privileges would
be donated in every instance. Frank
McGrath, president of the Kansas ALI
ance. was in the city to-day. When
asked about the plan he was very reti-
cent, but admitted that such a scheme
was under consideration by the Alliance
Several railroad men were interviewed
concerning the farmers scheme. A G.
Gay, general freight agent of the Santa
Fe company, said: 1.-The state would
have to guarantee the payment for the
first four or five years interest on bonds
of this kind, for the reason that the
railroad companies would make
determined fight, and no road
in the state would make any money for
the reason that rates would be cut to the
lowest possible notch. In the end,
though, the companies would be bank
rupted and driven out of the field" Mr..
Gay did not believe the plan would ever
be contaminated, and all the other rail-
road men regarded it as wholly unprac-
ticabie and visionary.

Mrs. Beaudry was convicted in 1882 of
being a party to the murder of her hus-
band by her lover. Camil Roy. The
woman pleaded guilty, and Roy was
convicted, both being sentenced to life
Imprisonment. Judge o. p. Stearns,
and the prosecuting attorney recently
petitioned the governor to pardon the
woman, as she pleaded guilty through
misunderstanding, and was really only
an accessory after the fact. The petit
ton stated that the woman was men
tai wreck owing to the death of her
three eldest children, and that the
youngest child, born in prison, was
liable to die of neglect.
