THE PRESIDENT SENDS A MESSAGE OF CON- DOLENCE—THE SCENES AT THE CAPITOL— WHAT DEMOCRATIC LEADERS SAY—THE PO- LITICAL EFFECT, ac. The news of the death of Mr, Tilden was re- ceived in this city before ten o'clock this morn- ing and promptiy bulletined at THe STAR of- fice, at the Capitol and other public places. AS the announcement had not been preceded by Sny news that Mr. Tilden was seriously ill it created general surprise. The news spread very rapidly over the city. HOW THE PRESIDENT RECEIVED THE NEWS. As soon as the news of the death of Mr. Til- den was received by telegraph this morning It Was sent over the government wire to the White flouse and all the executive depart- ments, and the news spread rapidly from room to room. As soon as the President received the intormation he sent the following telegram of sympathy to Mr. Tilden’s nephew: EXECUTIVE MANSION, Waskington, D. C., Aug. 4, 1886. Col. Samuel J. Tilden, fr, Greystone, Yonkers, Ihave this moment learned of the sudden death of your illustrious relative, Samuel J. Tilden, and hasten to express my individuai sorrow in an event by which the state of New York has lost her “most distinguished son and the nation one of its wisest and most Patriotic counselors, GROVER CLEVELAND. It happened that all the members of the cab- inet culled at the White House this morning and the report was soon abroad that a special cabinet meeting had been called to take official notice of Mr. Tilden’s death, or to consider im- portant information regarding the Mexican troubles, Each cabinet_officer had found it necessary to call on the President in relation to matters connected with his department. The death of Mr. Tilden wusasubjectofconversation between the President and his advisers, ‘The all expressed regret and sorrow at hi sudden removal, for they regarded hin a8 a great leader In the domoeratic party, and Hooks Of the, most sagacious men of thi Notwithstanding his feeble health tora nutnber of years, his death this morning was @ severe shock to his admirers, In the departments tuere was a general expression of regret at his death, and even those officials of republican be- lief who are aulll retained spoke feelingly of the public loss, ON THE FLOOR OF THE SENATE. The news of the death of ex-Governor Tilden was rapidly spread on the floor of the Senate, but did not cause any profound sensation, chiefly for the reason that it was an event which everybody felt prepared for, The demo- cratic Senators “all express the highest regard for Mr, Tilden, and accord him an exalted place in history; but they say that he had lived his aliotied tune, und bis friends were prepared to hear of his demise, Senator Kenua ‘sald: “Mr, Tilden had and exercised more individual ‘political influence than any man of post-bellum times, He was a great man, He was a man of superb ability und of courage and armness, No; [don’t think ‘his death will cause any sort of disturbance in poitties. He had, in w great meusure, retired from the political arena. In tact, he’ hud ac tually retired, in so iar as ft rested with him to do so. Naturally his advice was sought. ‘The democratic organization in New York will go gb gndisturved, and to greater victories than ia the past,” “He was @ big man,” said Senator Beck; “no doubt of tuat, Dut his death will not cause any trouble in thé party. No man is essential to tuis world, Every gap caused by death is tm- mediately filled.” Why, you might as woll stick your finger In a bucket of water aud ex- Peet muke # hole as to see any man inissed trom tue busy affairs of lite.” Senaior builer, while bearing tribute to the Wisdoin, sagacity and intluence of Mr, Tilden expressta Lue upinion ihut his absence would not have any effect upon polities, Otuer deniocratic Senators agreed substanti- ally with the expressions of those quoted, ail of them speaking ih high terms or Mr. Tiidéa, but, Will pass to other nands in the party and be wielded forthe good of tue democracy, Among tbe republicans Uon to criticise the dead chiettain of the oppo- sillon. Kepublicans conceded to him ability and admitted that be wasa useful man and gvod citizen. St nator Manderson hud lost its wisest Mr. Tilden, IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Very few members had yet urrived at the House when @ dispatch announcing the sud- den death of Hon. Samuel J. Tiiden was posted atthe telegraph office in the corridor. Mr, Randall was among the first to read it, and he was visibly affected by the sad news. He at Once sent offa dispatch of ineuiry. “It is bad news. Allour old chieftains are dropping off.” His voice trembled as he spoke and he was much moved, “Tis a great loss, a great toss, Just when we thought he was so well; when his health had much improved.” He went at once to the Speaker's room, consulting with nim as to what action should be taken by the House, A lew minutes iater Mr. Morrison joined them, ‘The first idea wus for au adjournment at once asa mark of respect, but it was so near fival adjourament that it was decided simply to Offer 4 resolution of regret, which Mr. Morrison drew up. Y ‘The sad announcement caused a deep feeling of regret throughout the House, particularly among the democrats, all of whoin lelt, the loss of wleader, aud many of a personal iriend. Many expressions of sorrow were heard on every band, FIVE CANDIDATES GONE. ‘The fact was commented *upon today that since the present administration caine into Power five presidential candidates of the demo- cratic party have passed away. ‘These are Geus, Hancock and McClellan, Vice President Hen- ricks, Horatio Seymour and Mr. Tilden.

AT THE CAPITOL TO-DAY. CLOSING UP THE SESSION. ——— Looking to Adjournment To-night SENATE IN SECRET SESSION. Mr. Tilden’s Death Announced in the House. THE SURPLUS RESOLUTION UP AGAIN. a The Senate. The Chair presented a letter from the Secre- tary of the Interior giving information as to land entries canceled tor fraud, Referred to ‘committee on public lands, THE GRANT COLLECTION. Mr. Sewell, from the committee on the brary, reported a joint resolution accepting from William H. Vandervilt and Julia Dent Grant objects of value and art presented by various foreign governments to the late U.S. Grant. ‘They are accepted “with grateiul ac- knowledgment and are tobe held by the United States and preserved and protected (in the Na- tional Museum) for the use and inspection of the people of the United States.” Passed. Mr. Allison, from the committee on ap- priations, reported a bill for the payment of Sertuin expenses incurred by special agents and experts of the bureau of labor, in July, 1886, lendar. ‘On motion of Mr. Plumb, the Commissioner of Agriculture was directed to furnish (next session) information on the subject of irriga- tion, ‘Mr. George moved to take up three House bills to remove political disabilities. ‘Mr, Ingulls protested against what he called the “grab game” in farming out the floor. He suggested either that Senators should be called jphabetically or that the calendar should be tuken up regularly. ‘Mr. Cockrell suggested that House bills on the calendar unobjected to should be taken up and UNFAIR TO THR PRESIDENT. ‘Mr. Edmunds opposed the suggestion, saying thut the greatest possible service which the Senate could render to-day would be not to pastany pill atall, It would be unfair to the resident to send him alarge number of bills atalate hour. ‘The result !would be, probably, that many ofthem would not be signed, and then they would be in a worse condition than if they hud been left on thejcalendar. THE CONDITION OF BUSINESS. Mr. Ingalls asked Mr, Allison (chairman of the committee on appropriations) to state the condition of public business, and when the final adjournment might take place. Mr, Allison stated that the deficiency bill, the sundry civil bill and the river and harbor’ bill had just been signed by the presiding officer. ‘The Chair—All three are on thelr way to the President. Mr. Allison (continuiug)—The fortification Dill has passed both houses. The Senate has asked @ conference, but the House has not yet acted on that request. I have heard floating through the air, in some sort of chaotic way, that it is not the'iutention of the House to pass ‘a fortification bill at this session. Mr. Dawes—I have been informed, unof™- cially, that the House wlii appoint a conference comnilttee on that bill in a few minutes; but I must agree with the Senator from Iowa that there Is little probability of a solution of that question. LOOKING FOR ADJOURNMENT AT 10 O'CLOCK _ TONIGHT. Mr. Allison—I think it unnecessary to pro- long this session in the hope that the fartifica- tion bill.will be disposed of. I know of no other business to detain us here, except togive the President the necessary time to examine these three appropriation bills, I see no impediment in the Way of providing now for an udjourn- ment at 10 to-night. Mr. Chace wished the session prolonged uutil the bill reported from the post office committee toextend the immediate delivery system should be passed. NOT AGREEING ON THE ADJOURNMENT RESO- LUTION, THE SENATE GOES INTO SECRET SES- sIoN, ‘The adjournment resolution (modified to ten tonight).was discussed for some time without any conclusion being arrived at, Finally, Mr. Edmunds moved to go into executive session, remarking that in the meantime something more definite as to adjournment mignt ve learned. The motion was agreed to, and the Senate at noon went Into secret session. THE BACKBONE RAILROAD GRANT. ‘The doors were reopened at 12:50. Upon motion of Mr. Eustis the bill to declare forfeiture of the New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Vicksburg Railroad company (the Backbone grant) land grant was taken up, for the pur- pose of making a special order for some day next December. ‘The matter was discussed by Messrs. Berry, Edmunds and others, ‘Mr. Eustis moved that it be made a special order for the second Monday in December. Agreed to, THE RETURNED PENSION BILL. A message was recived from the President, returning, iu compliance with a request ot the Senate, a bill granting an increase of pensions to soldiers or sailors who lost an arm or leg in the service. The same measure was received back trom the House with a verbal amendment, whieh, en motion of Mr. Sewell, was concurred in! ‘The Lill was then returned to the President, ‘The Senate passed the Senate bill, extending the system for immeuiate delivery’ to all arti- cles beariug an “immediate delivery” stamp, House of Representatives. THE DEATH OF MR. SAMUEL J.

Mr. Edmunds thought that in extending the streets and avenues some attene tion should be paid to the contour of the land, AS there are numerous bills in that vicinity: The amended resolution was agreed to, THE POTOMAC FLATS TITLE, ‘The conference report on the bill to protect the government interests in the Potomac flats Improvement was today adopted in Congress, and the bill goes to the President.

Senator Incalls of the conferees, who has taken 60 much Interest in the measure, said toa STAR reporter: “The bill will not inter.ere with the Progress of the work at all. It forbids work on any disputed ground, but as the improvements have been pretty nearly completed along these sections In dispute no harm can be done.
