Forost fires that wore raging in

Colby Sunday last. Spencer is a town
of about 1,000 inhabitants. Two largo
saw mills, tho depot, a wood-turning

house, tho musio hall and many private,
residences wero destroyed. Tho loss
will reach over 300,000.
A manufacturing firm of Pittsburg
havo received an order for the making
of a 20-barrcl gun, all tho barrels to bo
discharged simultancouslv. Eighteen
of tho barrels are to bo of 22 calibre
and tho other two of 44 calibre. "What
use the gun is to bo put to no ono be

nor why in lieu no does not get a mam-
mouth Bhotcun made instead. Tho
making will require nice workmanship,
as most of tho barrels will be about as
thin as writing paper. -
Colonel F. E. Embick was reappoint
cd last week by the secretary of the
treasury as superintendent of construct
ion of tho now public building about
to bo erected in YViliiamsport. lie
was appointed to tho same position a
tew years ago uy Secretary Folger,
who thought ho was a Republican.
AVhcn tho facts became known tho sec
ictary, who was an old friend, was
somewhat embarrassed, but in order to
relievo him Colonel Embick resigned
and A. a. Wagner, architect, was ap
'pointed to succeed him. And now as
things have changed, Col. Embick is
re-appointed to the position ho origin
ally held and is likely to havo consider-
alilo business on his hands soon, as the
work of construction will certainly bs
commenced before many months. The
appointment is a very good one and no
doubt will give pretty general satisfact
ion. Tho retiring superintendent was
well qualified for tho position, and if
ho had had an opportunity to do any
thing, there is no doubt that ho would
have given great satisfaction. It is
only the mutation of politics that brings
about tue change.
The Sentinel labors at a mountain
and produces a mouse in its efforts to
criticizo tho Comjjiuian. Last week it
priuted garbled extracts to show that
wo said one thing last year about tho
cnange in tno rule tixing Monday lor
delegate election, and another thing this
year, iho matter is really not wortli
attention, but to show how the Sentinel
labors to find fault with others, we
give iust what was said by us.
In our issue of July 31, 1885 wo
said in speaking of the above change
mat it was a good one, as it "will pre-
vent a good deal of Sunday work in
ondcavors to manipulate delegates."
mat is all that was said.
A year passed away and as tho dele-
gato election under tho now rulo drew
near it became apparent that it was
not satisfactory, and so in our issue of
July 23, 1880 wo urged its amendment
and giving reasons therefor, and saying
"liiero are some good reasons for hav
ing tho convention tho day after tho
election, but the objections appear to
bo greater than tho advantages."
There is neither inconsistency nor
forgetfulness in our position on this
question. If there is, we are in good
company, lor the County convention
of 1885 adopted tho amended rulo
unanimously, and this year our suogest
ion was followed and it was charmed
back as wo proposed, without a dissent
ing vote.
A Bebuke from the Soldiers.
Tho demagogues who suppose, that
tney are pleasing the "soldier vote ' by
schemes lor extending tho already lib
oral pension system have been again
rebuked by the Grand Army of tho
Hopublio at tho annual reunion at San
Lrancisco. A resolution in favor of
pensions for all surviving soldiers of
uie lato war was voted down by
majority of four to one, as a similar
motion had been at tho meeting of last
year. The representative soldiers of
the Republic resent tho imputation that
iney aro mendicants, whoso lavor cau
bo purchased by federal alms.
Tho ponsion system of tho United
States is already far moro liberal than
was over known beloro in tho history
of tho world. When tho war closed
tho population of tho United States
was about tturty-threo millions and of
tlieso some thirteen millions wero in
tho South, leaving twenty millions in
tho Northern States. In tho ordinary
courso of oveuts about forty per cent.
o! tho persons living at any given time
win uio in uiu course oi twenty years,
go that there probably are not" moro
ban twelve millions now alivo who
wero living in tho Northern States at
the closo of tho late war. Tho number
of pensioners from this war now upon
tno lists is about llirco hundred thou
Band, so that ono in overy forty of the
i-iiurt) population mm nave survircu
tho war in the North is now receiving
roiiei irom tho united Mates.
Nobody urudces tho veterans non
fiions, but tho constant efforts of a fow
schemers to extend the pensions to all
who nerved in tho army at any timo
misrepresent tliel spirit of tho Union
volunteers and offend their patriotism.
Tho American soldier was not and is
not mercenary and tho American citi-
zon is not a mendicant. If he is dis-
nblod or in firm, his pension is an honor
to htm ; othcrwiBO ho does not waut it,
and it is time for tho politicians to
Ami this out. Time).
William A. Wallace's Viows.
Ex-Senator William A. Wallaco has
consented to bo a candidalo boforo tho
Democratic convention on tho 18th for
governor. Ho has been sojourning at
Bedford Springs, aud was recently In
terviewed on tno question of tho day.
Concerning his own record ho said:
"l entered tho btato bonata in Jan
uary, 1803, and my record during all
of that period and since, has been that
of a pronounced Domoorat. I voted
ngainst tho amendment to the Consti
tution giving tho soldiers tho right to
vote in tho field, becauso I did not bo
lievo thoy could voto their opinions ns
lrccmen, and that giving tho negroes
tho riuht of sulTraco. I voted aitainst
tho calamity bill, and at every stage of
legislation allccting labor 1 was acttvo
and earnest in voting to ameliorate the
conditions of woikingmcn in tho mines
and elsewhere, but 1 would not vole
for what seemed to me to bo unreason
able propositions in that direction. I
voted lor u-.o nine million becauso it
benefited tho locality I represented and
was a direct appropriation of Stato
funds to help develop that locality.
Hut I bcliovo no man over charged tno
with corrupt practices, either in legis
latiou or in liuying votes for a Beat
cither in the Legislature or in Con
grcsB." "Uno of tho most important ot thoso
now agitating tho pcoplo of tho Stato
is tho question of railroad control and
thoso ailecting discrimination by them.
In the sessions oi tho state Legisla
ture of 1883 and 1885 I mado mi un
equivocal record upon tho subject of
enforcing, by appropriate legislation,
tho provisions ot tho seventeenth aruoio
of the Constitution by introducing bills
affecting thorn and speaking and vot
ing in their favor. Tho Democracy
should boldly asseit its defenso of
thoso provisions and chargo the
Republican party with tho neglect of
its plain duty on that subject.''
l'lioiiiumoN.
"I believo tho Republican party is
going to pieces on prohibition, and wo
should make a bold and wise declara
tion of our opinions looking to tho
future as well as tho prceont. The
masses of the pcoplo nro not for free
whisky, nor for a remedy worso than
tho disease. Wlso legislation recog
nizes tho habits and customs of tho
peoplo to bo governed, and reformation
can better bo effected by that recogni
tion than by an enactment that will bo
como a dead letter. Men cannot be
mado moral or pure by statute. I do
not believe that prohibition will prohi
bit, and i think that the JJemocracy
should declare against sumptuary laws
and for a license system of universal
application under the control of tho
judiciary and without discretion, save
as to the fitness of the applicant ; but
with rigid enforcement of tho penalties
now in existence and such additional
legislation as will aid in controlling tho
evils of intemperance, including high
license, but not so high as to forbid
licensing. Tho proceeds of the licens
es should bo sent to tho treasury of
tho county in which they are granted
in caso ot taxation there.
TUB I.AUOK i'JE9TION.
"It would bo folly not to recognizo
tiie existence of difficulties between
employers aud employed, and wo
should declare for such legislation as
will ameliorate the condition of the
latter while we do not interfere with
the just rights of tho former. Boy
cotts, strikes aud lock-outs aro methods
of violenco and not of peace, and pay
ment of wages in anything but cash is
a weapon of oppression. No man or
set of men ought to bo permitted to
dictate tho control of another's business.
I endeavored to inculcate the theory of
concession and forbearance in tho en
actment of the arbitration statute in
1883, for I believed that when employ
ers and employed were brought to
gether as equals to dissuss their diffi
culties the contest was half settled.
This Btatuto was but tho reassertiou of
Penn's old theory of peace, and tho
point I sought to attain was not arbi
tration nndcr that special statute, but
thn rcaflirmance of the doctrines con
tained in the ancient laws of the Com
monwealth. Recognition by law of
such methods teaches men the under
lying principles of the law and form
becomes of no sort of moment if tho
great end peace bo attained."
NOT A MONOPOLIST.
"I havo been and am a railroad presi
dent, aud since my return from tho
United States Senato have been aiding
in tho devcloraent of my own real
estate and of tho locality in which I
live. I had lands containing coal and
I wanted transportation for it, and I
and other gentlemen purchased other
lands and coal in quantity sufficient to
induce capital to aid us. The railroad
to thoso properties is an accomplished
fact, and the locality in which I livo
has twice tho opportunity that it had
when we began tho movement. I havo
never attempted to interfere with tho
details of railroad management and
know nothing of them. Instead of
being a monopolist my aim has been to
give, additional means for transporta
tion." THE TAllIKK.
"As this campaign involves the elect
ion of members of congress and of tho
Legislature who will elect a United
States Senator, that question is inci
dentally before tho people, although a
campaign for Stato officials has uoth
ing to do with it. I do not believe tho
Democracy of Pennsylvania aro for
protection for tho sake of protection,
nor aro thoy for freo trade. Rut they
believo in the ancient theory which
under a strict construction of tho Fed
eral Constitution, imposes taxea from
a revenue standpoint, and tho latest
utterances of tho party at Chicago
formulate their ideas upon that subject.
If I had been in Congress I would
havo voted to consider a bill to roviso
tho tariff, and when it was before tho
body would havo endeavored to caro
for tho interests of the peoplo I rep
resented. During my terra at Wash
ington I tried to bo faithful to the best
interests of tho people of tho State. I
think oi' r convention should declare
for a revision of the tariff and against
a repeal of tho taxes ou whisky and
t-ibaooo, for thoso taxes are taxes on
luxuries, and aro pledged for tho pay
ment of pensions. '

Tho Cutting Trouble.
Judgo Sabido, tho Mexican magis
trate, on Saturday last, sentcnoed
Editor Cutting to one year's imprison
ment at hard labor and to pay a fitio
of )$G00. Tho sentence- has caused n
great deal of bitter feeling among his
friends in Texas. It is bcliovcd that
tho action of tho Mexican Judge, which
soems to havo been taken with a de
liberate intention of showing contempt
for the United States Government,
will havo tho efTect of bringing matters
to a crisis. If ho cannot pay tho fine
he will have to servo 100 days longer.
Medina who caused all tho trouble,lias
loavo to suo Cutting in n civil suit for
damages. Tho question of censuring
the American Consul Rrigham, aud
risking for his removal is referred to
the Supremo Court at Chihuahua.
The faots loading to tho arrest of
Cutting nro givon ns follows :
The Toxas editor libeled a Moxioan
editor, Senor Medina. This was dono
iu a Spanish paper owned by Cutting
and printed in Paso del Norte, Mexico.
This fact brought tho Toxas editor
within tho jurisdiction ol (Jhihuahua,
ho being found on its territory. Mr.
Cuttintt resides in tho Chihuahua town.
doing business in tho Texas city.
Under tho first arrest ho agreod to
inako an apology to tlio Mexican court
as well as rotract tho libel agiinst
Medina, lie published in El Paso an
English article or card, which only
pretended to give tho apology demand
ed by tho Court and agreed to by Mr.
r'...:.. :. .1.-
tuning, wuuu ib lupemi-u uiu nuuj
against Medina 111 a moro severe form.
This libel, it is charced, ho "uttered"
that is legally distributed and issued
in l'aso del Norte. Copies in Span
ish as well as English were sent over
to tho Mexican side, Cutting accom
panying tlio carrier. Ho was arrested
again aud placed iu tlio town jail.
Hero is where tho clash came. Tho
first arrest or suit was mado in accord
with a rulo of law common to both
countries, as tho work of preparing,
editing, printing and publishing was
all dono on Mexican soil and tho
medium was a newspapei at least
nominally Mexican in character.
The fact of Cutting being an Ameri
can citizen living on iho border, and
be being arrested tried and sentenced
iu Mexico is tho cause of bringing tlio
matter before our Government. Sec
retary Uavard has mven notico do-
. . - - - rj--
manding from Mexico the relcaso of
(Jutting. This has given use to a
bitter feeling botweeu tho two coun
tries along tho border and many
threats of war from both sides have
been given. A Washington corros
pondont of tho Now York Swn dated
August 9th. thus gives tho views of
Secretary Bayard :
"I see no reason why a satisfalory
adjustment of the difficulty should not
be reached. I havo been assured that
such is tho desiro of tlio Mexican
Government. Senor Romero, tho Mex
ican Minister here, said some days ago
that his Government would promptly
scttto too matter." Tho secretary
seems to think that tho difficulties iu
tho way have been created not so much
by Mexicans as by obliging friends in
this country, who in their efforts to
embarrass tho Administration have
suggested to tho Mexican authorities
methods ot opposition which, perhaps,
thoy would not havo thought of. Mex
ico's attitude, it is aliened, has been
greatly strengthened by tho efforts of
air. ulaino s mends to show that ilr.
Bayard has acted with precipitancy
and has boon too exacting with Mex"-
1CO.
Mr. Bayard himself feels strongly
on the subject, and said, with much
impressiveness, that ho considered tho
principle involved in the Cutting affair
to oe ono ot the gravest importance,
and ono as to which the wholo country,
without referenco to "party, should bo a
unit. The personal merits or demerits
of Cutting himself had nothing to do
with tho case. It mado no difference
whether lie was an angel of darkness
or an angel of light, but it did mako
tho greatest possiblo difference to tlio
American pcoplo whether tiie conten
tion raised by tho Stato Department in
his caso should ho maintained or not.
Mexico claims in Cutting's caso tho
right to try an American citizen for
an offense committed in tho United
States, and Cutting has actually been
convicted and sentenced for publishing
a libel in Texas. Mr. Bayard thinks
this raises tho gravest possible question
between tho two countries, and if Mex
ico's claim were once conceded no
American traveling in Mexico would
bo safo. Mr. Bayard is deeply in earn
est iu his determination to resist tho
position taken by Mexico, and ho ex
presses full confidence as to popular
approval of his course.
"My countrymen," ho said, with ovi
dent feeling, "will uot bo deceived by
partisan misrepresentation. They will
recognizo the gravity of tho question
involved, and will never consent that
one of their fellow citizens shall bo
tried by a foreign power for an offonoo
committed in this country. Supposo
Cutting had stabbed his Mexican rival
on Texas soil, instoad of merely attack
ing his reputation, does any ono pro
tend that Mexico could havo tried him
for murder 1 Cortaiuly not .''
The case, Mr. Bayaad thinkB, is too
clear for equivocation, and he has no
idea of retreating from tho position
taken by tho department weeks ago
when it demanded Cutting's release.
Tho Secretary will not anticipate tho
action of Mexico, but ho evidently
looks for full reparation from that
country. That tho looal court should
have convicted Cutting does not neces
sarily imply that tlio Mexican Govern
mont will refuso to set him at liberty
and go to war. Speaking of this fea
ture of tho caso Mr, Bayard said that
both countries wero pledged by tho
treaty of 1818 to oxhaust overy possi
ble means of effecting a peaceful settle
ment of all political questions. Should
Mexico persist in her present attitudo
tlio question would then arise ns to
what action should bo taken by this
country to enforco acquiescence iu its
demands. The ruiituro of diplomatic
negotiations would naturally follow.
Secretary Bayard says ho has received
no intimation of Minister Jaokson's
resignation, although it is quite possi
bio that ho may wish to como homo.
Tho other question which has added
fuel to tho flame ou the Mexican bord
er tho judicial murder of a Mexican
naturalized in this country, who had
been illegally oxtraditcd by tlio Texan
authorities is in process of settlement,
and it is thought hero that the murder
er will bo hanged by tho Mexican
Government. In this case the whole
responsibility tests with tho Texan
authorities, who havo heon so bcliger
ent over the Cutting episode.
Mr. Bayard makes no concealment
of his determination to insist upon full
satisfaction in tho Cuttiuir affair, not
so much for Cutting's sako as beoauso
, it involves tlio question whether Arneri
j can citizens in Mexico are to bo pro
j tcctcd in their rights. If Moxioo gives
way in this intar.ee, and thero can bo
no doubt that tho Stato Department in
tends to enforce its demands in tho im-,
fusal, tho position of Americans in
Mexico will In future bo far moro so
ouro than it has been for yoars, and
the persecutions and annoyances to
which Americans have been subjected
probablo contingency of Moxioo s re
in that country will bo stMislbly modi
fied when tho Mexicans find that wo
havo a Secretary of Stato with back
bone enough to insist upon tho fullest
protection for his countrymen.
It is rumored that Gov. Macoyra, of
tho Stato of Chihuahua, in which Cut
ting was convicted, has ordered tho
authorities, in caso of an attack from
Texas, to cut oil tlio prisoner's head
aud deliver it to tlio Americans.
A special to tho Associated press
from El Paso, wlicto Cutting is held,
dated August 10th says : During the
afternoon Editor Cutting was called
boforo tho Court and notified that ho
had been granted an appeal to tho Su
prcmo Court of Chihuahua, and that
tho lawyer who had been officially as
signed to his defense had forwarded
the necessary papers in tho case. Ho
also fears that he will bo assassinated
as booh a- he leaves Paso del Norte,
and that tho Mexicans will give ns an
excuse that ho tried to cpcape.
Tho citizens of El Paso yesterday
formed three volunteer companies to
protect tho city and Kiiard it against a
purpiisu from the other side. Paso del
Norte is lull of Mexican soldiers, and
tumors mo in ciiculatiou that more are
coming. In fact, there pro all kinds of
exciting rumors floating through tho
town. Ono is to tho etlect that 300
Mexican horsemen aro stationed at
Saiagossa, on the Mexican side of the
river, about 13 miles below El Paso,
opposito tho Toxas town of Yslota. The
commander of Fort Bliss has sent down
to investigate tho rumor.
A special from Washington, dated
August 10th Hays : Notwithstanding
tho rumors of warlike preparations on
tho part ol our Government and tho
firm tono of Secretary Bayard's, recent
dispatches, it cannot bo said that this
city is pervaded by any apprehension
of impending hostilities. It is tlio gen
eral opinion that whatever activity may
bo noticeable in naval and military
nowadays is duo to a desiro of thu
United States Government to bo pre
pared for any emergency, and that in
all probability tho Mex'uan troubles
will bo settled eventually by peaceablo
means. At any rate, the President, ol
course, could not take any hostile meas
ures in this or any other case, without
tlio consent of Congress ; and if war
should Fcem imminent, tho firBt step
would be to convene Congress in an
extra session. There are no signs of
such a proceeding, and ponding the
nppearanco of such a proclamation to
Congress the peoplo of the country
may prescrvo their equanimity.
Hedden's Successor.
Daniel Mngone, of Ogdcnsburg, N.
Y , will bo tho now collictor of tho
port of New York. His appointment
was postively decided upon Monday,
but was uot "given out until Tuesday.
Mr. Hedden's resignation, dated Aug
ust 7, was secured Tuesday. It was
accepted with alacrity, and ho will im
mediately retire, leaving Mr. JUagone
to enter upon tho discharge of his
duties as soon as ho can qualify.
Mr. Magono is a lawyer by profess
ion, about 55 years old, and ho stands
iu tho front rank of tho bar of West
ern New York. Ho haB always been
a Democrat, and was an intimato friend
of Mr. Tildcn, at whoso funeral ho
officiated as a pall bearer. There is
no better evidence of his personal and
professional standing than tho fact that
ho was one of tho commissioners ap
pointed by Governor Tilden to investi
gate tlio New York Canal Ring. He
is said to bo a strong advocate of civil
servico reform. Tho selection is re
garded with much favor here.
Daniel Magono is tlio most favorab.
ly known lawyer in Northern New
York. Ho is ono of tlio few men who
aro popularly known by reputation
without holding or having held a prom
inent elective office. Ho is the most
influential Democrat in his part of the
stato. No movement is mado by tho
Democrats of his section without his
kuowledge and consent, yet ho never
had a local offico'higlier than that of
supervisor of his. town, nor any state
office other than that of Governor Til
den's Canal Investigation Commission
of 1875. Mr. Magono was for some
time a member of tho Democratic Statu
Committee. In 1870 ho was chairman
of it, and to his energy, rush and bold
methods Mr. Tilden was under especial
obligation for the way in which he
carried New York Slate for tho presi
dency. In ail party matters since 1875
ho has been closely allied with the
Tilden wing of tho party and has been
the trusted political friend of Daniel
.Manning.

Cholera is now raging in the cities of
Yokohama and Tokio, In the former
tho disease is worso than ever before
known. Between July 15 and 20 tho
cases averaged over one hundred daily
and tho deaths fifty. There is every
reason to fear tho diseaso will spread
further, as tho atmosphcrio conditions
at the present are favorable to tho pro
pagation of epidemics. The weather
is the hottest experienced sinco 1871.
Up to date, only two foreigners havo

Tho Canadian Thistlo Pest
The farmers of every community
should sternly enforce the law of tho
24th ot April, 1885, foi bidding all cit
izens from allowing tho Canadian this
tle to go to seed on their premises, it
is one of tho most pesiilential weeds
of nil that now pollute the fields of
the farmers, nud it spreads from the
thriftless to the land ot tho tfinltv
with fearful rapidity. Tho law of 1835
provides that auy person holding lands
by lease, or otherwise, who shall allow
the Canadian thistlo to co to seed on
their premises, shall be- fined fifteen
dollars, to bo paid to tho Bchool fund
of tho district. Any citizen who is
likely to bo injured by tlio spread of
the pest from his neighbor's lands,may
give notico to havo tho weeds cut be
fore going to seed, and if not dono the
constable or supervisor is required to
enter upon the property, cut tho weeds
and can compel the payment ot labor
and costs from llin hnldnr nf Ihn nnl-
1 luted , lands. No averago farmer or
good citizen should require official no
tico from tho officer to mako him cut
tho Canadian thistlo before it ripens
into eeed. A fow hours' woik at most
would cut it on any averago farm, and
tho holder of any land should cut it for
his own protection. It is destructive
ot all crops when it gets rooted in
fields, and its downy seeds are wafted
hither and thither to pollute all neigh
boring lands. Supervisors of public
roaus aro also required, by tlio now
law, to cut the Canadian thistlo on or
along all roads or unseated lands in
their districts, and iu caso of failure,
they are liable to a fine of ten dollars,
to bo recovered for tho uso of the part
ies about to bo injured by such neglect
or refusal. Tho present is the timu to
destroy tho Unuadian thistle pest and
overy occupant of land should willingly
and promptly oboy tho law.
Samuel J. Tildea's Will.
MOKE THAN $3,000,000 OU A VIXV.V. I.I
ltllAHV IN NEW VOltK.
iho will ot Samuel J. liklen was
read Monday to his heirs at Grey stone,
lie bequeathed tho bulk of his proper
ty to public uses, but he waB not un
mindful of his relatives. Tho value of
his estate is closely estimated at S5,
000,000, and outside of Greystono and
the Gramercy Park propoity it is near
ly all in personal property. The amount
bequeathed for the establishment of
public institutions is fully 1,000,000,
and tho disposition of his money is
left absolutely in tho discretion of threo
truslec-3 whom ho names, John Uiglow,
Andrew II. Gieen and Georgo W.
Smith. Mr. Smith has Loen with Mr.
Tildcn for twenty years, and was his
contid"iitial secretary, and tho general
manager of his estate.
Tho will was read at lo'clock in tho
library of Mr. James C. Carter, who
drew , it. Thero wero present Mrs.
Mary B. Pelton, a sister of Mr. Tildon
and her granddaughter, Mrs. V. A.
Hazard, and tho children of the lato
Henry A. Tilden i Col. Samuel J. Tib
den, Jr., Mrs. Swan, Georgo A. Tilden,
and Misses Susan and Ruby Tildcn.
Tho only relalivo who was absent was
Miss Whittlesca of Florence, Wis.,
who is also of tho Henry A. Tilden
family. Tho others prc-ient wero Mrs.
Henry A. Tilden, Andrew II. Green,
John Bigelow and Georgo W. Smith.
An hour and a half was consumed in
reading it,
It was known that Mr. Tildcn had
somo publio bcquestB in viow, but tho
grandeur of his bciieficenco was not
oven guessed at. Ho provides liberally
for his relatives. To Mrs. Peltou ho
gives the houso in which bIio resides,
38 West Thirty, eighth Btreet, and tho
incomo of 100,000. For each of the
other relatives ho sets aside a certain
sura to bo held in trust by tho execu
tors, tho income to be paid to them
during their lives, they, howovcr, to
havo power to disposo of the principal
at death. All tho rest of his property,
Groystono and the Grameroy Park rcsi
deuces included, is left in trust to tho
trustees, who aro also oxecutors, to bo
applied to Beyeral publio uses.
Tlio will provides for a free publio
library and reading room in Now Lob.
anon, and another free library and
readiug room in Yonkers. These aro
small things compared to tho noxt sug
gestion of Mr. Tildon,- which provides
for a grand freo library in Now York
at n cost probably of more than thrco
millions for establishment and widow
ment. Nothing js said about tho fino
library now in tho Gramoroy Park
house, tho disposition of that be
ing a detail left to tho discretion of tho
trustees. No specific disposition is
mado of any part of tho property ex
cept in tho caso of Mrs. Peltou. Tho
will provides that if tho trustees de
cido not to establish the library they
may uso the money for any other chari
table or educational instruction that
they may prefer. Thoy may also use
any surplus funds in this manner.
