10 TILDEN’S POSITION. ‘WHAT IS THOUGHT OF JOHN KELLY’S ACTION AT ALBANY—HOW IT WILL PROBABLY AFFECT | THE NOMINATION FOR THE PRESIDENCY. ‘The action ot Mr. John Kelly at the meeting of the | Btate General Committee at Albany on Wednesday last | has for the past two days furnished matter for diseus- sion among politicians of both factious of the demo- eratic party in this city, Everywhere it is asked, | “What does the apparent opposition of the ‘Boss’ to Governor Tilden mean?” The followers of Tammany, | of course, indorse the sentiments of John Kelly ex- | Pressed at the committee meeting, They loudly declare their opinion that the course adopted by their | Jeader is the proper one, and that it would, as he Btated, ill befit a delegation représenting the State of New York to go to a convention pledged to support Any particular candidate, NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1876.—TRIPLE SHEET. AMUSEMENTS, FIFTH AVENUE THEATRE. The hundredth performance of Mr, Augustin Daly’s excellent comedy, “Pique,” was given last night at this charming theatre. As it occurred upon the n:ght of the day set apart to honor Ireland’s patron saint the theatre was tastefully decorated with the embiems of the Emerald Isle, Round each tier there were graceful festoons of green foliage, joined here and | there with white lilies, A large and enthu- siastic audience were assembled there, ond they showed their hearty approbation of the perform- ance by continued and constant plaudits. There seems to be no reason why ‘‘Pique’ should not reach its 200th night, un age rarely granted to mortal dramas, MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES, The usual matinees will be given by most of the theatres to-day. Miss laa Jeffreys isto make her début in the new Among the anti-Tammany people different indica- Vions are seen in the action of Mr. Kelly, yet on every | Play of hand it seems to be the belief that Governor Tilden will have no possible chance of securing the nomina- | tion for the Presidency. At the Manhattan Club the question has been thoroughly discussed, and it would | yecm that the chances of any candidate from this State | securing thenomination from the Natienal Convention are considered exceedingly meagre. In fact, 's conceded by the members of the club that it | would be more politic to put in nomination some | due trom the Wert, | ‘MR, ROBERT B. ROOSEVELT BELIEVES | that the expressions of Mr. John Keliy, at AJbany, tlearly betoken an intention to take a position antagon- istic to the nomination of Governor Tilden for the Presi- deney. He considers that for some time past Mr, Kelly | bas been imimical to the Governor and bas but waited | his opportunity to effectually kili him politically, The | Bpeech made by bim (air.

Purser takes a somewhat different view of the situation, He believes that the action of Mr. Kelly at Albany ply is meant to secure the in- fluence of the Gevernor in passing the various bilis now before the Legislature which have been instigated by Tammany, and that the expression of opinion that the New York / delegation to the National Convention should be un- trammelied is only another form of holding the rod in | Jerrorum over the head of the Governor, in order to let bim understand that uniess he acts in all ways as Tam- may Hall, or Mr. Kelly, shall direct, he can have no hope of Tammany’s support in bis candidacy for Presi- | dential honors. In any case Mr. Purser does not be- lieve that Governor Tilden will secure the nomination, Dutside of ex-Governor Seymour he believes Governor | Piluen to be the strongest than that could be put for- ward from the State of New York, but it will, he thinks, be deemed impotitic to nominate him, in view of the fact that the last two mocratic CANDIDATES WEKE SELECTED FROM NEW YORK and weredefeated. Then, again, the tact that should Governor Tilden be nominated he would have at least a vote of 35,000 (the ant-Tammany party) against him in | this city wlone would also militate against Lim, Tho | fact of the selection of Utica as the place for the Co Yention to meet Mr. Purser does not think indicates a | desire to nominate Governor Seymour, for itis weil | known vat he is friendly to Tilden and may throw his | Influence into the scale in the latter’s favor. Governor | Beymour, should he desiro it, could secure the nom. | Ination, but the probabilities‘are that some one will be selected who will secure the support of Western and Southern interests. Mr. August Belmont thinks that Kelly bas acted very unkindly and very ungratefully toward Gov- | ernor Tilden. Mr. Douglas Taylor had no opinion to give other than that he does not believe Governor Tilden will have apy chance for the nomination as the democratic can- didate fer the Presidency, Alderman Reilly thinks that the action of Mr. Kelly | Was just what it should haye becn, He had heard, he | taid, but one expression of opinion, and tuat was that | the New York delegation should go'to the Convention | uopledged to vote im the interest of any candidate, | Boveruor Tilden, ne thought, would not be nominated, | for the reason that he had no strength. He would be beaten even in the county of New York by 100,000 | votes, | Congressman Meade did not think that Mr. Kelly’s action indicated any opposition to Governor Tilden, but he did not believe the latter would be selected as the democratic nominee, Jn a convergation with a HenaLp reporter touching the expediency of setuling the date of the Convention's meeting ata late day, Senator Gross said:— “For my part 1 ain of opimion that the later the Con- ¥ention occurs the better for all parties concerned, The interests of the democracy are at stake in this can- | vas, and no advantage should be sacrificed to an undue | haste.

Another horrible murder occurred last night in a tenement house on Second avenue, near 109th street. A poor, respectable woman, a washerwoman, aged forty years, the mother of dve small children was found in the house of her employer, lying dead in a poo! of blood, her head frightiully hacked and her brains Spattered on the walls and door. The perpetrator of the terrible crime is believed to be a lodger in the house named Thomas J. Bartell, aged thirty years. The motive for the deed is as yet shrowded in mystery, but it is suspected that the murderer first outraged bis victim and then, his crime, killed her. The details of the terrible affair are as follows:— Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Freeman, living at No, 2,114 Second avenue, went, at tho suggestion of Thomas J. Bartell, a lodger in her house, and the husband of her niece, overgto Ward’s Island to adjust a family difficulty existing between Barlel! and his wife, who is living with her father on the islacd.

[From the Chicago Times. } _ Congress in 1873 appropriated $1,000,000 to place a slab at the head of the grave of eacn soldier buried in the national cemoteries. September 6 of that year was fixed by the War Department for the purpose of receiving and opening bids to supply .the stones. Walsh Brothers, of New York, who have their quarries at Carrara, Italy, own nine or ten vessels, constantly employed in transporting marble to this country. They had consracts under the Tweed management of public works in New York, and had supphed many private cemeteries. They made special contracts to do the work, They employed an expert to visit the cemeteries and learn the cost of the supply and ascer- tain what GRAVE- THR OTHRR BIDDERS were likely todo. They made friends with Babcock, and through his intimate friend, Captain McGuingue, | Chief of the Cemotery Division of the Quarterimaster General's Office, learned that a bid of $923,000 would be below any of the bids so far. put in, all the bids re- } ceived having been secretly opened, scheduled and re- | sealed under McGuingue’s direction, They came to Washington with a bid of $923,000, prepared, sealed and fully guaranteed. On arriving on the night of Sep- tember 5 they ascertained that another bid bad been put in by # perty at either St. Lows or Louisville for $913,000, They were urged to put in one tor $906,000, Dut Dehoving that the bid for $913,000 was NOT BONA FIDE, and considering the work unlikely’ to yiold over four per cent at the price oftered themselves, they decided notto go below that price. September 6, at five min- | untes before cloven A. M., the bidders assembled in a | room of the Quartermaster General's office. Each bid- | | der deposited his sealed bid in a basket. Mr. M. J. | Walsh took care to deposit bis bid first so that it would be covered by the basketful and reached last. This | was to prevent any other lower bid being slipped m after the amount of his was known, ‘The basket was | carried into another room aud was brought back In company with Captain McDougal in whose presence the bids were tobe opened. Among THE VIRST MLDS taken from the top of the basket was that of Mr, Walsh, who at once said, “Captain, I want notraud here.
