SAMUEL jTtEdEN DEAD.
Ex- governor Samuel J. Tildcn died
on Wednesday morning at Greystone,
hU residenco on tho Hudson. Ho had
Laen infocblo health for somo time, and
his death was duo to failure of the
heart. Mr. Tilden was ono of tho
foremost statesmen oi tho land. As
governor of Now York ho broko up tho
Tweed ring and tbo Uanal ring, and
ho was elected President of tho United
States in 187C, but was defrauded out
of it. In 1880 ho declined to allow
tho uso of Ins name again. Ills ago
was 72 years.

THE l'RKSIDENT 8 ACTION IN THE CUTTING
CASE ENDORSED.
Washington, Aug. 3 The Cutting
case bus to-day for tho first timo assur
ed a war liko pliaso at the capital
Yesterday (secretary Bayard sent to
Congress the correspondence between
the Mexican authorities and tho United
States, in which tho former maintained
tho doctrine that an American citizen
may bo prosecuted in a foreign country
iur auto uuuu in uuueu oiutea territory.
This correspondence bo clearly show
ed the iudefensiblo attitudo of Mexico
that a meeting of the IIouso Committeo
on r oreign Affairs was called this
morning, at which the wholo subject
was discussed. Tho result was the
unanimous adoption of tho following
resolutions, which tho IIouso will bo
asked to consider before adjournment
THE COMMITTEE RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas, A. K. Cutting, an Ameri
can cititizerr, is wrongfully deprived
of bis liberty by Mexican officials at
Paso del Norte, iu tho Republic of
Mexico, and
Whereas, Tho Mexican Government
refuses to releaso said Cutting upon
tho demand of the President of tho
United States ; and
Whereas, Tho Government of Mex
ico alleges as a reason for its refusal to
comply with sucli demand that said
Cutting is guilty of violating a Mexi
can law upon American soil ; and
Whereas, Tho IIouso of Represen
tativos, while appreciating tho disposi
tion shown by tho Government of
Moxico to carry out international obli
gations, can never assent to tho doo
trino that citizens of tho United States
may bo prosecuted in a foreign coun
try for acts dono wholly upon Araerf
can soil ; therefore, bo it
Jlesolved, 1. That the IIouso of Ren
resentatives approves of tho action of
tbo i'resident ot tbo United states in
demanding tho release of said A. K
Cutting.
Jlesolved, 2. That tho President of
tho United States be and is hereby re
quested to ronow tho demand for the
icleaso of said A. It. Cutting.
It is quito generally understood that
theso resolutions woro drawn last night
py oecreiary uayaru antr uiiairman
Jicimoni conjointly. They represent
mo senso oi mo Administration and
fjivo niiy future oxeculivo aots in tho
lino of aggression against Mexico the
Banctum of Congress. There was a
long meeting of tho Cabinet to-day
and tho Cutting caso absorbed tho
greater part of tbo timo of tho session.
Mexico's dilemma.
Tho greatest difficulty of tho matter
lien in tho woakness of tho Mexican
Government. Tho authorities aro
willing to surrender Cutting but they
are afraid of tho consequences that
might follow such releaso iu tho North
ern provinces, whoro thero is a feeling
of intenBo hostility against tho United
States. By complying with tho de
mands of this government a rebellion
against tho authority of Mexico might
bo precipitated and by refusing to com
ply with tho demands a war with tho
United States is tho inevitable result.
President Diaz and Minister Romero
aro both striving to roach a settlement
of the disnuto which will satisfy tho
United States without creating a revo
lution In Moxico. It is understood to
night that at tho Cabinet meeting to
day it was agreed to continuo diplomat
ic negotiations on tho subject lor a
short lime, and if Mexico does not
speedily release Cutting forcible meas
ures will bo taken to compel his surrender.

"Ask that question ot any ucinocrai

"Tho nominees t Why thoy must

"You beliovo that the party will bo

"Yes, 1 do venly believe not only m
tho possibility, but tho very great prob
ability of bucccss in November. Such
success would not bo merely pattisan
victory. It would imply only tho de
termination of tho independent voters
to secure tho release of labor and busi
ness from corporate and ring monopoly
to compel both legislation and adminis
tration in the interests of tho produc
ing classes and to continuo tho bless
ings of honest state government which
they havo enjoyed sinco tho victory of
1882."

Near the End.
Washington, Aug. 2. "This will
undoubtedly be tho last week of Con
gress," said Mr. Allison, Chairman of
the Scnato Committeo on appropria
tions, in forecasting tho work to be
dono at this session. "We can ad'
lourn on Tuesday if wo aro only to
complete the appropriation bill," he
continued, "and by Wednesday, in nny
event. It docs not occur to tno that
anything further than tho appropr'uv
tions will bo done.''
Speaker Carlisle and Chairman Ran
dall, of tho house committee on ap
propriations, aro both of tbo opinion
that tbo session will not exceed beyond
Thursday, at tbo farthest, and may
end on luosday or Wednesday.
Work in both houses will bo con'
fined to conference repcrts on tho sun
dry civil, the deficiency, tho fortificatiou
and tho river and harbor bills, when
they aro ready. Only the first named
bill is necessary beforo congress ad
journs. Tho other bills can go over to
the next session, but tho impression
prevails that thoy will all bo disposed
ot in somo way.
Tho conference committeo on tho
sundry civil bill was in session nearly
all day Saturday, and wlulo tlicro arc
quito a number of disagreeing clauses,
and other conferences may be appoint'
ed, there aro no very serious disagree
ments.
Tho mter-stato commcrco and tho
Northern Pacilio forfeiture bills will
attract some attention iu both branches
of congress, but as there is such a wide
rango in tho views of the two houses
on these subiccts thev aro not regard
ed seriously, and will not be allowed to
consume timo so as to interfere with
tho day of adjournment. They will
como up at time?, if at all, when tho
measures which must bo passed aro not
ready lor consideration.
In tho bouso of representatives this
moruing will bo heard tho conferenco
reports on tho river and harbor, the do
fieieucy and tho Bundry civil bills
Thero will bo no order in tho consider
ation of any sot of measures henco
forth. 1 ho committeo first reporting
will bo first served. Special orders and
tho hours and days heretofore fixed for
work upon certain subjects will be dis
regarded. Everything is to bo relegated
to tbo end that tno tour or tivo bills de
termined upon for completion may be
completed.
During tho morning hour in tho sen
ato Mr. Evarts debated his resolution
contemplating a convention of tho gov
ernments of tho world for tho purpose
of securing a uniform currency stand
ard, ami directing that correspondence
bo opened by this government to that
end.
Tlicro will bo frequent dispositions
of conferenco reports ou bills, as in tho

Tho Allen Landlord Dill-
It is feared that tho Payson Alien
Landlord bill, which passed tho Uouso
by an almost unanimous voto on Sat
urday, will not bo acted upon by tho
Senalo this session, and perhaps not at
all, as it is vory easy for tho enemies of
any bill to stavo off action upon it
during tho short session of Congress.
But tho moral eilcct of tho House's
vote cannot but bo salutary and it is
thought that on account of it thero will
ho littlo likelihood of tho formation of
any now United States Land or Cattlo
Companies in Great Britain.

ing of tho two men tho J'lain Speaker
says !
Tho ono has been a Scnntor of tho
United Stated for six years from tho
Stato of Pennsylvania n Senator at
Ilarrisburg for threo full terms nnd
half of n fourth term Minister of tho
United States to tho Republic of
Equador by appointment of President
lJuohanan ; member, nnd the leading
member, of tho Constitutional Conven
tion ; tho foremost statesman, by com
mon consent, in nil tho Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania. The other man is
tho clerk of the County Commissioners
of Carbon county i neither more nor
less. That a clear mnjority of the del
egates voted for Senator Buckalow was
to bo expected. Hut it is a matter of
profound interest nnd importance that
twenty-five men could bo induced to
voto iur a man absolutely unfitted for
tho high ofiico of member of Congress.
Of course tho purpose lo bolt and break
up tho convention was early formed.
Tho men from Mauch Cnunk who
brought tho boodle, oamu hero for no
other purpose. If Iho majority iu
favor of Mr. Buckalow had been ten
instead of three, tho bolt would havo
taken place all tho same. Two years
ago Mr. Price had thirty-one voles and
Horman had ten votes, but none tho
less a bolt took placo. Bnt what word
of excuso can ho urged in behalf of
men who for corrupt purposes como in
to and seek to break up tho conven
tion they uro powerless to control.
Wo speak to men who wo know will
understand us when wo say that all
this business will have nn important
and perhaps a decisive influence on tho
Legislative and County nominations.
It is idlo to attempt to disguise tho
indignation of a great majority of tho
Democratio voters over tho result of
yesterday's businr bs. Thero may not
bo a great deal said, but nt thu polls
tho voters aro certain to repay witli
interest the malignant and senseless
courso of tho minority, nnd particular
ly, if their unwise course is persisted
in."
Becord of the Session.
As tho present stssion of Congress
draws to a close n review of tho work
performed by it may be allowed. The
session has been a long one and at in
tervals somewhat exciting, but it has
not been a profligate one. The bills
that attracted most universal attention
failed in several instnuoes, but the
credit of tho session was fairly
maintained in tho fact that few bad
bills wcro passed and a very consider
able number of good ones woro success
fully pressed through tho House.
In a brief speech on Monday evening
Mr. Randall summarized tho work of
tho session in admirablo form. "We
havo returned to the public domain
millions of acres of the public lands
taken by insatiate corporations,'' snid
tho ox-speaker. "We havo entered
upon tho building of a new navy," he
added, and finally capped tho climax
of achievement by the statement that
"we havo passed every bill that we
havo been asked to pass having for its
purpose tho bettering of tho condition
of tho laboring people. Wo havo not
in a single instance passed any bill in
favor of monopolies."
A session with such a record cannot
rellcct discredit on tho majority that
guided it. It is a record that no mem
ber of tho Democratio party need bo
ashamed of. Of courso the failure to
reduce the tax burdens of tho people
is to bo regretted, but that is a Bin of
omission and less rcprcbcnsiblo than
ouo of commission. Taking tho record
of tho session just closing and giving
it carelul and intelligent scrutiny there
is nothing that will bring shame to tho
laco ot thoso concerned in it. Jix.

the leading industries of tho stato aid

Mr. Cooper seems to belong to that

A Great Victory
A Torriblo Caso of Scrofula
Cured by

" In tho winter of 1870 I was attacked Itli

At ono timo I had liolosiMWn thirteen largo

continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, anil
almost Intolerable to endure. It Is Impossible,
to fully (lcscrlbo my sutferlngi, as tho caso
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
threo physicians, I was worse than ever.
Finally, on tho recommendation of W. J.
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was Induced
to try Hood's Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twclvo bottles, within tho last
twelvo months, tho scrofulous eruptions havo
entirely ceased, nnd tho abscesses havo all
disappeared, except tho unsightly scars, which
aro dally beeomluc 'smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less.' I do not know what It may
