The ru mors which were current yesterday that Henry V .....id had been asked to resign the presidency of the Northern Pacific Railway company, while apparently without foun dation, have doubtless some fact aa a ba-is. A story ha leaked out to-day which ha i very appearance of truth. A few days be fore Ihe recent meeting ol the Northern I'acitic directors there was a pood deal of bullish talk on Third itrert regarding these securities-, and a portion of tl waa traced to Mr. A. .1. Drexel. A irood deal more was hinted at than said, bow ever, and the story was that aotuetbinst would occur at the meeting which would enhance the value of the Mock'. What IhU was has only Just transpired. It appeart that Dr xel, Morgan ,v. Co. were mat favor able to the retention of Mr. Villard ai president. I'liey were not satisfied with Ibe way in Alii h he bad managed the finances, and admitting that money was neeeasary to pay off the floating debt and provide means for prosecuting further th work on the road and its branches tliry did not care to have anything to do with a new bond ispiie un less they could name a nw man to conduct the company's affairs. They proponed to form a syndicate which would take at a fair figure the entire $20,000,000 of second mortfisse bonds on tbe condition that Mr. Villard should resign, and Mr. A. B. Casatt, late vice president of the Pennsylvania Railroad company, be made president. Mr. Casstat, it was said, had agreed to takethe position, should it be offered him, and Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co. believed that be would be a valuable acquiollion. Their plat) met with decided opposition, however, from Mr. Villard's friends, and they finally com promised by agreeing to do what they could to place the bonds, though avoiding all responsibility, and allowing Mr. Villard another year of management ns executive ot the conipan .

To-nlfcbt I meeting of tbe creditors of the late Arch bishop Purcell will be beld at Ilibernia Halt to determine whether they will appeal from the decision of the District Court to tbe Supreme Court iu the crtat case re cently decided (October 1) by the former "against the creditors, " as tbey term it. The decision Is very complex and volumi nous, und quite Indescribable. To the non-professional tnuu not pecuniarily In terested in the case It is dull and unintel ligible. The most persistent of tho cred itors here understand that it Is adverse to them. They have had an organiza tion for keeping up this agitation for two years, but have remained silent pending tho long trial and delayed decision of the cine, In so far as holding public meetings was cnucerimd. It wan money raised by this organiiiilnii that paid some of the legal counsel who assisted the assignee in tbe trial. II it while the rase was In Ibe eourls tbe association never lost an opportunity lo Uy their grievances before tho clergy. They addressed lettem to Archbishop Klder, sent a petition lo the Provincial Council which convened here, addressed circulars to all Hie llisbops In th,, I'lilied Slates, and finally addressed the Pope, him self In strong terms. The tenor of these liiMitlniis was Hint of an application for tne Catholic church tolakesoma uctltu for their relief.

I replied thai I would think the matter over and lay It before the trustees. Sickness engrossed my atten tion and the matter slipped from my memory until now. I shad do nothing iu ihe promises, not even consult with tho trustees.

In all 2,000 names have been secured, and the petition Is a bulky document, well caculaled to im press the Governor with the Importance which the citizens of St. Kouia attach to th management of their local affairs. Il Is not probable thai Mr. Cleveland wiil await any action in reference to him self on the part of the governor, for, If be has not already done so, bo will certainly tender bin resignation before the governor leaves tbe city. It Is not well known and Indi-puted that the president of the Cast Avenue railroad has emphatically required Mr, Cleveland lo choose between tbe Po lice ( nininiasionemhip and the superlnten dem y of the railroad, and tbat he ha nat urally chosen to remain In bis position with the company.

A plot to tap the telegraph wires and swindle the Coney Is land pool seller was discovered and frus trated Tuesday afternoon.

Albert lttirtis, the owner of tbe pool room at Baur's, suspected that something was wrong, and notified the chief r.f Police. The latter with bis men passed through the hall-way of the Iroquois Hotel without hindrance, and iu a room on the upper floor found two tine telegraph in struments, and a number of messages scat tered about, There u no person in the room, though the air was th.cK with tobacco smoke. In an adjoining room the oflicers found a new fifteen-Jar b.ittirv. The wires of the Instrument were connected with the trunk wire out side, i mining to Brooklyn. Kvery prepa ration bad been made to tap the latter wire for Information. Mr. A. R. Samuels and one Furst were arretted to-day on suspi cion of complicity. It k said that persons coiicri'iicd in the plot offered an operator VTi'-O fur a day's service. l'lii'ir plan evidently wa to tp the wire, learn the winning horses at the Washington races, keep back tbe information until tbey could buy a number of tickets on the horses and then forward the telegram to it dcsll nation. roliuiemenl ( tbo National fcaea- RT-flMll.
