Y., Oct. 27. The Court of Appeals rendered a decision this morning In the case of George II. Tilden against Andrew II. Green and Laura B. Hazard et al. affirming tb judgment, with costs payable to all parties out of the Samuel J. Tilden estate. This renders the Tilden trnst Toid and is in favor of the heirs. The opinion is written by Jndtfe Brown, and is concurred in by Chief-justice Follett and Judges Haight and Parker. Judge Bradley writes a dissenting opinion, which is concurred in by J adges Potter and Vann. Samuel J. Tilden, jr., was present when the decision was handed dovn, and was warmly congratulated by many present on the outcome of his light. Under the statute of distribution that regulates the disposition of property tho property or Mrs. Pelton and Henry A. Tilden, sister and brother of Governor Tilden, come in for equal shares of the i'S,OGO.ouo. Mrs. William B. Hazard is the enly heir on Pel ton's side, and thus is entitled to 4.000,000. The other $4,000,000 is subject to the claims of tho six children of Henry A. Tildren. They are George JL Tilden. J J. Tilden, jr., Mrs. William B. Whittlesy, Mrs. wain, a widow who lives in ew Lebanon. Mrs. Willis S. Payne and Mrs. Schwartz, of New York city. .lodge Brown, in his opinion, says in substance: "Unless within the rules which control courts in the construction of wills we can separate the' provision in reference to the Tilden trnst from the general direction as to the disposition of the testator's residuary estate contained in the last clause of the thirty-fifth article, and find therein that a preferential right to some or all of such estate is given to tnat institution when incorporated, and one which the conrt at the suit of said institution could enforce within the two lives which limit the trust, we must, within the principle of similar cases, declare the provisions of the will invalid. It is clear that the testator intended to create a trnst of his residuary tttate. and he plainly indicated his purpose to bo that the trustees should be vested with the title to the property until they should divest themselves of it in carrying out tho purposes mentioned in the will. There is no discretion to be exercised upon tho question as to whether the property shall co to charitable purposes. Discretion there is as to the objects of charity, but none as to the general disposition of the estate. Tho object and purpose of the testator is devotion of his estate to charity. The power to endow the Tilden trust is likened to a power of appointment, which is so common as to require no showing of its validity. In the will there is no antithesis sojfar as the purpose to which the property is to be devoted is concerned. It expresses a sin cle intent only, viz: to devote the estate to charitable uses, and, of course, in such a scheme a testator might prefer and designate one corporation over another as the object of his bounty." The learned judge then goes on and shows that in this case Mr. Tilden has not dono that and has not conferred any preferential tight to the estate or an)' part of it npon the Tilden trnst. He says the Tilden . trnst does not represent any alternative or primary purpose in the disposition of tho estate, but is simply the suggested instrument to execnto tho testators scheme for the disposition of the property. The Tilden trust takes nothing by virtue ot the will. The residuary estate is vested in the trustees and it is solely by their action that It is to become vested in the Tilden trust I' very expression used in the lll indicates the bestowal of complete discretionary power to convey or not to convey, and the creation and bestowal of such a power in tne executors is wholly opposed to, and fatal to the existence of an executory devisee.

Arrival of Dillon and O'lirien In Cork the Signal for I?!oodshed. Cokk. Oct. 27. Messrs. O'Brien and Dil lon arrived here to-day. Tho two distinguished members of Parliament were met by a deputation composed of members of the National Federation. representatives of the Gxllc Club, the municipal oiheers and n large number of priests. An enormous crowd of people lined the route followed by the procession which attended Messrs. O'Brien and Dillon from the railroad station. The procession was headed by a brass band, and was escorted by a strong detachment of police. Tho reception ac corded to the two members of Parliament mentioned may, cn the whole, be said to have been of a mixed nature. As the pro cession passed through the streets there was considerable hissing and hooting, and several stones crashed through a large portrait of Mr. O'Brien which was carried in the parade. Upon arriving at tho assembly rooms, Messrs. Dillon and O'lirien were given an enthnsia3tio reception, during which several warmly-applauded speeches were made. While the speech-making was in progress a body of rarnellites attacked the bandsmen of the McCarthyites and tried to demolish their instruments, now a favorite proceeding upon tho part of the contending factious. A warm free hebt followeddbnt it was only of short duration, as tho police charged in upon the combatants and soon ut an end to the hostilities. Messrs. DHon and O'Brien, after tho reception at the assembly rooms was ended,-and escorted by a number of friends, attended the Cork county convention, where Mr. Dillon acted as presiding officer. During the course of an address made to the county delegates, Mr. Dillon complained of what he termed the "organized violence of theParnellites," and made other allusions to the political situation which were loudly applauded by those present. Mr. O'Brien, during his speech at tho assembly rooms, said that ho was willing to give fair play to his opponents, but added he would not yield to "brick-bats and dynamite bombs," a remark which was re ceived with considerable loud applause. Continuing, Mr. O'Brien said that they (the Parnellites) might blow ud the ollice of the newspaper representing the views of the McCarthyites. but, he exclaimed, "they cannot destroy the spirit which animates the party." Tremendous applause, mingled with some hooting. At another part of his discourse, Mr. O'Brien, amid cheers, called upon Mr. John E. Red mond, the Parnellite candidate for Cork city, and the new leader of the Parnellite party, to repudiate all responsibility for the violence noted in connection with the dynamite incident last night in Dublin. After the Cork city convention had adjourned there was a serious fight In the streets of this city between the McCarthyites and the Parnellites. As soon as the convention had closed its proceedings Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien passed through the city, still accompanied by the procession which met them at the railroad station. Suddenly the McCarthyites were attacked by a large mob of the Parnellites, and both sides fought desperately with stioks, clubs. Ehovols and pikes. A detachment of mounted polioe was sent for. and they spurred their horses in between the two lines of combatants, striking right and left with the 11a t of their sabres amid two crossing showers of stones and bricks. A large number of wounded were stretched bleeding and groaning in tho streets before the troopers restored order. The neighboring hospital had to find accommodation lor many wounded persons by the time hostilities were suspended. There is great exoitement everywhere in Cork this eveninsr. The antagonistic groups, it is feared, will reassemble, and there is danger that the battle between them will be resumed. Two boys in Limerick quarreled while discussing the question of the leaders hipof the Irish parliamentary party. Finally one of the lads struck the other over the head with a stone, fracturing his ekull, for refusing to answer whethsr he was in favor of the late Mr. Parnell or Mr. llealy. Mr. O'Brien further declared to-night tbnt it had become his duty to drive tho followers of Parnell from Parliament. The convention thereupon called upon Dr. Joseph E. Kenny to resign his seat. This evening: troops formed in the square for the protection of the open-air meeting which is to be addressed by Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien. SAD COMMERCIAL STRESS. Merchants in Chili Loaded Up with Goods that Are Goto to Waste. New York, Oct. 27. A letter from Iquique, dated Sept. 16, says: "Reports received here from the south state a largo number of executions have occurred in Santiago and Valparaiso in the last few weeks. Tho victims were parties who had been particularly active in their opposition to the revolutionists, but none of them were persons or any special prominence. Vicuna, who was elected President in the southern districts two months ago, and who was regarded as the representative of B&lmaceda, is now in Callao. Commercial a flairs in Iqnique and in all other ports in the northern part of Chili are in a peculiar condition at the present time. During the revolution the ports in the south of Chili wero closed against those in the north, and no produce of any kind was received here from the south. Consequently large cargoes, principally of Hour and hay, were imported here from San Francisco and other foreign ports. More of these articles wero received here than could be consumed nt the time, and merchants in Iqnique, Antofogasta and other northern ports now have largestocks on hand which they are unable to dispeso of. In the last few weeks borne products have been coining in from the southern poris and have found a read' sale, owing to their cheapness, and the merchants hero will doubtless sutler heavy losses on their imported stocks. American flour, which was imported at great expense, sold a lew months ago for over per sack, and now it cannot be sold here lor $-". American hay which was imported hire at an expense of $70 a ton is now replaced by Chilian hay which sells at from $ to $ i a ton. There aro some cargoes still op tho way from foreigu couutiies, and nome merchants hero have been forced to cable the consigners, asking upon what term they will take back the goods now in stock here. Advices concerning the murder -of Mr. Manuel Mnria Alduuale and his companion, fanpolicano Villuta, have been coutirrned. Tbey wers taken prisoners on the 5th of this month by an otlicer and three soldiers, and whilo cn their way to tjuillota they met a baud of Balmaceda's dispersed oldier. who are still marauding in that vicinity, and who commenced blaming Aldnnale for the defeat. Several political prisoners tried to escape by the l'ahnilla, bet tbey were overtaken and murdered by their accusers. Tho next morning their bodies wero found stark naked. The dillerent political nart'.c that in itiated the revolution are making a draft of the programme that is to bo observed by tho new administration, and that they will all sign compromising themselvt s to respect it no matter who gains the presidential election. This programmo does not pretend to provide a new avsteni of administration, it merely establishes the general principles that, based on liberty, are to be observed by the new political organization, and these principles are: the right of suttrage, the punishment ot any government otlicial who should interfere in the elections, absolute independence of the three chief authorities of tho nation, the submission of the resolutions of the chambers, the responsibility of the presidents and their ministers, the reduction of the ordinary expenses, tho conversion of the national paper currency into metallic currency, the reduction of tho army, tho augmentation of the ileet. tho suppression of unuecehsar employments, the steady development of railroads, amicable relations with all other uations, the limita

Fatal Encounter Ttctween Germans and Natives in Upper Guinea. London, Oct. 27. Dispatches received here from Lagos, capital of the British Wost African colony of that name, gives an account of the landing and triumph over a number of tribes in the neighborhood of the Cameroons river. Upper Guinea, of a force of Germans. The native tribes of Abo, in the Cameroons country, it appears. have been for some time past subjecting German settlers to abuses of various natures. These proceedings the German admiral determined to stop. Consequently, Koine time ago, he rendezvoused three German war vessels in the Camaroons river, and. landing a strong force of sailors and marines, stormed tho villages of tho hostile chiefs, indicting severe punishment upon them.

They are instruments of crime who have been educated by their masters to the cowardly practioe of thsir own precepts of Parnellism. With the death of their creator they have descended to the practices of the Nihilists and Carbonari." Jacobitism Shows Its Head. London, Oct. 27. It seems rather a late period for Jacobitism to find expression in Great Britain; but it appears that the house of Stnart has some adherents yet. At a meeting in the quaint old town of St. Ives, Cornwall, somebody argued that any stray descendant of the late pretender's family should be hunted no and put on the throne, and moved a resolution to that ellect. Thereupon tho Mayor of St. Ives, who was present, moved an amendment to the resolution, expressing devoted loyalty to Queen Victoria. The amendmeut was carried amid great enthusiasm. Unearthed a rope's Decree. Brussels, Oct. 27. The Courier of this city pnblishes a decree alleged to have been issued by the late Pope, Pius IX, with reference to future conclaves.

It also declares that the cardinals in Home at the time of the death of a Pope ought to decide whether tho election of a new Pope should take place outside of Italy, and that if any attempt should be made to interfere with a conclave it should be transferred beyond Italy. Gas or Dynamite, Which? London. Oct. 27. A scientific investigation has been made as to the causo of the explosion in the oillco of the National Press, the Dublin McCarthyite paper, and experts are satisfied that it was caused by natural gas. A dispatch from Dublin says: Tho people at the National Press oilice ridicluo the idea that the explosion at their office, last night, was caused by gas. Prof. Tichborne. inspector of explosives, declares that powerful explosives wore used. Thirty Natives Uuder Wall. London, Oct. 27. Advices from Tunis state that the force of the recent storri was sharply felt on the southern coast of the Mediterranean.

CleTcland'TliinksItSIiouIdMakcXoDiflercnce Whom tho Kins Supports. The x-Pres:ibnt on the Same Platform with lifs Dead 1 r Enenir.Gcverr.or ilil! An Appeal to Democrats to Stand by the Ship. New York. Ocr. 27. When Grover Cleveland was a presidential candidate, in 16S4, leading men of his party on tho Produce Exchange organized a business men's association, which was very active. The organization has been maintained, and last winter was incorporated as the New York Democratic Club, with a club-bouse on Filth avenue. Under the auspices of this club a campaign meeting was held to-night in Madison-square Garden. Governor Hill was present and ex-President Cleveland presided. Each was roundly cheered as he appeared upon the stage. The ex-President and tho Governor greeted each other cordially, and a minute later J. Edward Simmons was introduced as the chairman of the meeting. A series of resolutions of bitter tenor regarding the loss of the world's fair to New York and other State topics were passed, and banker J. Edward Simmons then called the meeting to order, end presented Mr. Cleveland as chairman. After expressing pleasure upon being present with business men. the ex-President said: . "It must be confessed that both here and in other parts of the country those engaged in business pursuits have kept too much aloof from publio atl'airs. aud have too generally acted upon the theory that neither their duty as citizens nor their personal interests required of them any habitual participation in political movements. This indifference has resulted in a loss to our publio service. I am firmly of the belief that it a few business men could be substituted for professional men in official places the people would positively gain by tho exchange. Aud It is strange to me that our business men have not been quicker to sse that their neglect of political duty is a constant danger to their personal and especial interests. They may labor and plan in their counting-houses or iu their exchanges, but in the meantime laws may be passed by those ignorant of their business bearings, which, in their operation, will counteract all this labor and defeat all this planning. TAFFY TO NEW YORKERS. "The city of New York, as the center of all that makes ours the Empire State, and as the great heart from which life-giving currents How to all parts of the country, cannot be indifferent to the questions, both State and national, which have relation to the State, campaign now nearly closed. Much has been said about the topics which should be discussed in the prosecution of this campaign. It has been contended that the canvass should bo confined to State issues, and it has been claimed that national issues should be most prominently considered. I conceive the truth to be that both are proper subjects of discussion at this time; and, in the presence of this assemblage, called together to consider the business features of the contest, I am impressed with the fact that the best test to employ by way of discovering the legitimacy of any topic in the pending campaign is to inquire whether it is connected with the good of the country, and with the business of the city and State; and whether it will be at all influenced by the results of the canvass. Can any one doubt, that the ?olitical verdict which the people of New ork will givo in November will affect her position in thegeueralnationalengagement which will take place one year hence! In this view the proper adjustment of the tariff, which concerns not all our people, but the commerce and the business of our city, should be discussed. This, and the question of sound currency, cannot be separated from the business interests of our State. They should be put before our people now for the purpose of inviting their thought and setting their opinions. Applying this test, it is entirely plain that an eoonomical administration of State atl'airs. and the numerous other subjects having referenco to a just, honest and beneficent State government are in a business sense important and legitimate. On allthese questions New York Democracy is right, and wo aro willing and anxious to discuss them in any place and at any time. MARKS A DICOVERT. "But our opponents, apparently seeking to avoid tho discussion of subjects legitimate to tho canvass and affecting the business of our city and State,1 and exhibiting such weakness and fear as certainly ought not to escape notice, are shrieking throughout the State the demerits and dangerous proclivities of a certain political organization whose members support the principles and candidates of the Democratic party. It would be quite easy to show that even if all they allege against this organization were true, the perils our opponents present to the people are baseless' and absurd. But it seems to me tho argument of such a question belittles an important situation. Every man knows, or ought to satisfy himself, whether the principles and policy presented to the people bv the Democratic Darty are such as he approves. If tbey aro, certainly his duty as a citizen obliges him to indorse them. Every man ought to satisfy himself whether t!io candidates of tho Democratic party are men of snch character and ability that he is willing to trust him in the administration of his State government. If he believes they are ho should not withold his support from them upon any frivolous and irrelevant pretext. "Tho exerciso of the right of snflrage is a serious business, and a man's vote ought to express bis opinion on the questions at issue. . This it utterly fails to do if the voter listens to tho ravings of our opponents, and allows his voto merely to record the extent to which be has yielded to the misleading and cnnningly-devised appeals to his prejudices, made in behalf of a desperate and discredited minority. Such a vote does not influence in tho least the real settlement of any of the weighty - matters of policy and principles upon which tho people are called to pronounce judgment. If enough such votes should be given to cause a false verdict in the State, those who should contiibute to that result and thns become disloyal to their beliefs wouid find everything but satisfaction in their self-reproach, aud in their sense of degradation which would follow the unconcealed contempt of those partisans who had duped them for the purpose of thus gaining a party advantage not otherwise possible." Mr. Cleveland closed with reference to tho purity of Mr. Flower's business career. Governor Iltll. introdnced by ex-Presi-dent Cleveland, then discussed State issues, being followed by several other speakers. Nkw York, Oct. 27. Mr. Fassett, Republican caididato for Governor, spoke tonight before a grat audience in Brouklvn.

It only costs $lSO,ooo,000 a year for all the 4-12 other cities of tho United States, including Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston. Chicago. St. Louis. San Francisco and all other cities of fc'.uOO inhabitants and upward." Obi tin rr. London, Oct. 27.

UGLY FIRE AT SOUHIPORT J., M. Si I. Depot and Odd-Fellows' and Grange Halls Burned Last Midnight. Total Loss liar Reach $12,000 and No InsuranceMrs. Elliott Burned to Death in Her House Near Shoals Other Costly Blazes. Epecial to the Indianapolis Journal. Southport, Ind., Oct, 28 1:43 a. 3i. This town had a narrow escape from being burned up by a disastrous fire that broke out in the J.. M. & I. depot at midnight. The cause of the lire is unknown, the blazes not being discovered until the lower floor of the building was all in llanies. By the time tho local fire department could arrive at the sceno, the Odd-fellow's Hall on the second floor was a mass of roaring flames which wero fairly boiling from the roof and being carried to an adjoining frame building occupied by Lyons & McLaughlin's butcher shop. The eutire town was aroused by the clanging bells, aud men rushed to the scene to help tho department. It was plain that the brick building adjoining the butchershop and occupied by J. II.

The Cleveland baby has been named after its grandmother, and called Itntb. Other babies have been named from their grandmothers, and other babies havo been called Ruth without creating a ripple of public excitement. But our brethren of the Democratic press are in a stato bordering upon ecstacy over the incident. "It is a pretty name and a gentle one," says the New York World, "as befits the daughter of a most gentle mother. All good fortune attend thee, Ruth!" "A good Scripture name." says the Boston Herald, "in agreeable contrast to the sentimental patronymics now frequent among mothers." Wo might suggest to the Boston writer that "Ruth" is not exactly a "patronymic," and that "patronymics frequent among mothers" is a phrase that can only be excused npon the ground that he was in a state of great excitement when using it. "A lovey, old-fashioned name," says the Philadelphia Times, "that cannot be shortened or corrupted into any endearing form." Yet what is to hinder calling it "Ruthie," or even Rootle." The New York Journal declares that "there is something stanch and noblo in the sweet Biblical came of Ruth." end that "it alone is enough to make the Nation's heart warm to her," meaning the Cleveland baby. 'these ore only average samples from our Democratic exchanges of their gem-rat gush on this thrilling topic. Additional quotations in the batue style ruitfht be given iu indefinite number.

PALO ALTO GETTING RAPID .Marvin Drives Him a Mile Without Dreak iu 2:10 on a Kite-Sliaped Track. Experts Now Predicting that He Will Soon Break the Slalliau Record of 2:09 1-4 Held by Allerton Packville Races Begin. Stockton, Cab, Oct. 27. Palo Alto, tho old hero of the Stanford stables, beat his record to-day, trotting a mils in 2:10 fiat. He made the quarters in :S2, :31V;, :33 and :o33. It was a game race against time from start to finish, and the old campaigner did not make a skip In the entire mile. When he went to the quarter in :S2, horsemen said the pace was too fast, aud when he reached the half in 1:034 they said he could not keen his feet. But Palo Alto was out to beat all his etforts, and went at this surprising gait throughout tho mile without even a touch of Marvin's whip. Expert horsemen now conteud that Palo Alto will beat the world's stallion record of 2:00U held by Allerton. They expect to send him again in a few days "on this track if the weather holds (rood. A week ano to-day the famous nine-year-old stallion Palo Alto was driven by Charles Marvin in 2:11U, lowering his record one second. Palo Alto c&ina out last week limping from old lameness of several years standing, and many horsemen said he could not lower his mark. But he has been improving all the while, and now it is the general belief that a week hence will go the mile faster than Aller ton's record of 2:00li. The horse came out fresh and fast to-day, aud in his warming up it was seen that he was ready to go a very fast mile. Alter three miles preliminary work Marvin nodded for the word, and with a runner close up, Palo Alto was sent away at a record-breaking cair, Marvin had bis bands lull to bold him down to proper rating, but he kept him level and went to tho quarter in 82 seconds, which was said by many to be tou fast. Under a pull he went to the half-mile post in 1:03. The runner kept at close quarters and the trotter went to the three-quarter post in 1:30 strong, and game as a horse could be. In the straight finish, where many thought he would weaken, he came well within himself and made his greatest race strong, with Marvin swishing his whip occasionally, but not nsing it. When ho went under the wire in a desperate finish three timers made the record 2:10 flat, and a great shout went up. He cooled out well, and did not show distress over the etl'ort. If the weather holds he will go against the record a week from to-day. The Rockville Fait Meeting. special to the Indianapolis Journal Rockville, Ind., Oct. 27.

THE ESVr OF ALL nOUSEWIVES Is Mrs. Harrison's Kitchen and Pastry Department at the White House. Washington Correspondence llrookljn Eagle. The most important improvements made at the White House during the past summer aro in the lower part of the building. For many years the kitchen, laundries and store-rooms in the basement ot the President's house have been in a most abominable condition. Decayed and broken wood covered the tloors, and at every rain-storm the cellar would overllow,and water standabout in pools, breeding malaria. Now all tbisii changed. Mrs. Harrison, who adds to Lit many other good qualities that of beinc a good honsowile, mado up her mind that part of the money appropriated by tho last Congress for improvements at the Whito House should be spent down-stairs, even if the country legislator failed to see or hear about it. fco she had the old wooden floors taken np and &olid cement laid in their place. The work is now completed, nnd it has been well done. This year, for the first time, the White House wash will not be hune out in the yard to dry. A net? 6team drying apparatus has been addtd to the laundry, and baby McKee's frocks hanging npon a line will not alter this be open to public inspection. General Jackson's old kitchen is now utilize d a an elevator enaine-room. The old-fashioned ovens, however, are still there, and the niche in the wall remains where the crano swung out whenever the early Presidents dispensed hospitality at tho executive mansion. Mrs. Harrison's kitchen adjoins the old Jacksouian one. It is a large, handsome apartment, provided with every modern improvement known to the art of cooking. '1 ho day I examined the room u rualatto woman was just baking a lot of home-made bread, and the big brown loaves in tho oven looked most appetizing. There is a special pastry-room adjoining tho main kitchen. All the cooking utensils were highly polished; indeed, the whole kitchen was as neat as a pin. Fp stairs many improvements have also been made. Contrary to general custom, Mrs. Harrison began with the stato diningroom and had it thoroughly overhauled. The walls ar now frescoed in the new shades of brown aud. the work is very effective. Sheaves of wheat, bunches of fruit and other products of the soil are represented on tho wall in neutral tints, a beautiful X:ow Wiltnn carpet covers tho Honrs, especially ma.io nt tho factory in Voukeis for this room. Tho old chairs will, however, have to be used, r.a there was not suibcient money left to purchase new ones. An Iowa
