TILDEN'S RAILROAD TROUBLE. THE MATTFR BEFORE THE COURTS AN OTHER WORDY DOCUMENT. The question of Samuel J. Tilden's dis reputable connection with the St. Louis, Alton and Tcrrc Haute Railroad has been brought before the United States District Court of this city, as has been already re ported. 31 r. Tilden was employed to re organize this road in 1SG2, and was paid 20,000 for his services as "counsel." By a device of permitting bondholders to have the same vote on their secured debt that the 5tockholders had on their unsecured debt, Tilden and four others obtained com plete control of the road under the guise of a '-Purchasing Comnittee,,, whose nominal duty was to buy in the road at a judicial sale. Dy reason of a failure to ob serve certain formalities, $234,000 worth of bonds were left without an owner. Tilden and the Purchasing Committee, it is claim ed, divided these bonds between themselves. The "Belleville branch" had been built on the credit of the road, and properly be longed to it ; but by sharp practice the con trol was secured by the New York direc tors, and the branch was leased to the pre sent road at a high figure. In 1875 the stockholders vainly attempted to get from Mr. Tilden an explanation of his conduct, but despite their efforts Tilden and his associates secured their re-election by voting on the stolen bonds. It was in vain that a list of the voting bondholders wa.s demanded, and, therefore, to test the right of the stockholders, the case has been brought into court. Shortly before three o'clock this after noon Samuel J. Tilden filed his answer to the above charges. The answer comprises 11M) legal folios, filling 121 octavo pages of printed matter, and deals verbosely in glit tering generalities and a legal denial of all the charges made against him. When the document was filed in the office of the United States District Court an outsider remarked that he was not supprised to find that it took Tilden five weeks to write his letter of acceptance when he was engaged in preparing so bulky an answer as to the charges of fraud that had been made against him. JT. 1'. Com. Adv. of August 7. The letters of Tilden and Hendricks, published on Saturday, so fully reveal the tricky politicians in the guise of '-reform ers," that what they say is of very little consequence. Tilden's letter, particularly, is not the outspoken, heartfelt utterances of a statesman and honest man, but the carefully prepared utterances of a scheming and crafty pretender, seeking to catch the breeze of popular favor by a careful and prolonged study of the direction of the cur rent of public sentiment, and he has been so long in its preparation and elaboration that his policy is revealed, aud himself dis trusted. While he has been at work upon LLs letter, the people of the country have been studying him, looking upon his re cords, and examining his surroundings, and having discovered how the spider has becu weaving his pretty web, and the purpose fur which it has been prepared, they have Jim intention of walking iiito it. Three fourths of the letter is devoted to a disser tation on the money question. He de nounces the Resumption act of 1875 as a sham and a snare, but he evidently did not think so when he declared, after siiruins the legislative act of 1875 to make nothing but gold receivable for taxes and other State dues after January 1, 187i), that there 'must be no step backwards." Whatever may be thought of the Resumption act it self, there is not the slightest doubt that Tilden is guilty of the most flagrant in sincerity, llendriek's letter has two merits which Tilden's has not. It is shorter and speaks with greater bluntness. Both let ters, however, are intended to deceive North and West, and both are consistent only in catering for the united support of the Southern W hue League eiemeut.
