strongly confirms and emphasizes the position taken
I'm these dispatches with regard to tho responsibility
the failure OF any remedial silver legislation at
this session Of Congress. Senator sherman asserts
broadly what has already been repeatedly pointed

majority Of the Democrats In the Senate are opposed
to stoppagc OF silver purchases md stand ready to
combine with tho FREQ silver Republican senators to
prevent vote on any proposition for the repeal al

senators was made clear on Monday last. when Mr.
Aldrlch asked consent for an immediate vote on his
resolutions for the absolute stoppagc of silver pur
chnsed after January next No Republican Sena-

remonstrance which prevented an agreement came
from Mr. Daniel. Of the FREE, coinage leaders
on the Democratic side
Mr. sherman's letter IS addressed to Major John

that not more than one-fourth one-ffth OF the
Democratic senators In favor Of such repeal and
they will resort TO TO prevent IT.
they are openly pronounced for the free coinage Of
silver on the continuance Of the present law. II

THE SUSQUFHANNA'S BIG TUNNEL.

cTRONG REASONS WHY THE ROAD WISHES TO
BE FREE FROM ITS LACKAwANNA CONTRACT.
The story recently published In The Tribune In
regard to the tunnel now being bored through the
Palisades at Guttenburg under the auspices OF the
NewYork. susquehanna and Western railroad, caused
much comment in Walst. as to the ultimate objects
OF the enterprise and the identity Of the mysterious
corporation behind IT, The various theories ana
guesses on the subject have all been thoroughly dis
cussed and the which seems at present to be most
probable Is that the work IS being done, as said In
The Tribune by the Susquehanna road ITSELF notwiti-
standing the denial Of its officers, Its purpose being
10 free Itself from its obnoxious contract with the
IAckawanna road That contract Is a perpetual one,
and when the rupture comes there is prospect OF
costly LITIGATION between the two roads At present

said that the Iackawanna gets 80 cents OF this al
though the road hauls the coal only about one-third
