THE GREAT TILDEN TRUST.
CLOSING AKGUMEN1S IN THE WILL CA**>E.
MX, M'CCRDT SHOWS TIIK WKAK PO-jriS IN TH
nOCUS-BXT-MR. BOLLIXS Ahl.tIBS SOB THK
WILL
The cloting argument* In tho suit bronchi hy George
H. Tilden for the roust'ur'"'" of thc clauses In lb** will
?f bli uncle, Samuel J- Tilden, eo.ebtt*hlQ| thc Tilden
Trust and pruvidlu** for fi-oo librarlee in Xow-Lcbanon
Yonken and thu city, wore beard by J_->tice Law
reit*** In thc 8uprcme Couri, special Term, yesteitlay
Tte executors, who are thc defendants In the case?
John Bigelow, Aadiww H. (.'roon and George W. Smith
?wen all present. Stephen A. Walker, ex-Judge
Horace Russell aud Morris **, Miller were also there.
Deles MoCurdy, Smith Weed and Lyman D. Brewster
npreaented tbo plaintiff, and ex -surrogate Daniel G.
Bolllm, James C. Carter, ex-Judge George T. Com?
stock and Lewis Casa Letty ard appeared for tho de?
fendant*.
Mr. MeCurdy argued that the testator was a man
of great ability, of clear mind and a master of lau
gu ages, and himself prepared tho will, and what wat
not clearly indicated as hts Intentions should not be
carried out. The testator had three definite objects
In view?to benefit mankind, to establish tbe trust and
to execute charitable pui-pc-es, leaving the property
to be thus used as the executor** deemed proper.
CAN T?K TKI RT BK EXFCUT. D?
The trust was so iudeflntte and uncertain that lt
was Incapable of being executed. Cnless tho trust
was to constituted that tho court could Indicate what
the executors and trustees were required to do and
how they were to carry out the objects of the teeta
tor, lt must bo pronounced Invalid. The clause
rested do Interest tn any specified perron, and as lt
?tandi, without tho aid of some extraordinary power,
not possessed by tho Supremo Court, it would bo In?
capable of execution. If the clauses of tho will tn
question were to bo construed at giving property for
charitable purposes, then lt must be borne In mind
that no trust could bc upheld under tho laws of this
State tor charitable purposes unless they were so spe?
cifically tet forth that the court could not only clearly
tee what those purposes were, but could also ascertain
tbo amount of the trust property conveyed and tho
beneficiaries under lt.
There was nothing In tho will to Indicate tho amount
of the property to lie used foi- the purposes nf tho
trott. There was no specific direction that tho ex?
ecutors thotild give anything In any prescribed
direction. It simply authorized and permitted them
to do certain things, but did not command th"m to
do anything. Mr. Tilden did not declare, his
Intention to vest the property In the Tilden Trust or
In any trust, but vested tlie e**flr*e residuary "state In
the executors and gave them power to dispose of lt.
Tho provisions of these elaosm "f the will were con
tnry lo the statute against perpetuities and did not
lltr.lt the bequest to two lives In heine. The limita?
tion as lo the trust was left entirely to the trustees.
The provision* could not he upheld as an executor*
devise or beqiiest tnd th" trust must hi* declared void
at not sanctioned by any statute nf the state.
MR. it.iti.ivs rri'oi tst thk tofU.
E_-Stirrog*te Rollins said that the construction of
the disputed clauses In the will was a manor requir?
ing weighty consideration and of great Importance to
the people for whose benefit Mr. Tilden had intended
them. It Involved the disposition of pi-operty worth
trom $4,000,000 to if5,000,000. and lt was to be de?
cided whether Governor Tilden, who was an eminent
lawyer and a man of g? at learning ind Intelligence,
know what he was doing when he mado his will or
had miserably failed In setting forth his Intentions.
It waa to be decided whether this vast estate was
to pats Into the hands of those for whom lt was not
Intended or whether lt was to bo Se*0te_ to the use
cf the public for all Hmo In accordanco with the de?
sign of the testator.
Mr. Tilden was an eminent citizen who had been
called by his feiiowcltlzens to many position* of ere-it
dignity and Importance. He hnd neeta counsel to tho
corporation, a delegate to constitutional f<>r.ve*,tlons. a
member of the legislature and Oorernor of th** **tato
of New-York. He wait tho aclmowledeed lender of a
great political party and a conspicuous majorltv of
The cutten*, of this cttv and Stale hud indicated their
wiih for hit accession to fhe Chi"! Magistracy of the
Republic. At Iho date of the will h? was advance.1 hi
years, but of detr mind and faculties. Ile had a
large fortune and he had mn-lo a liberal provision for
bli n*phetrt and nieces. He was horn 1n this Slate
and resided for the tarter part of his long lifo In this
city. When he mado h's will he w.v r00Ol**Od to per?
petuate h1? memory and lepefit his fellow-citizens
by fhe endowment of a creal public ehirlty. Hy thc
clauses of the win whleh vam bete lo be sonslrued
It wat clear that he had declared In unqualified terms
it* Intention to found such Institutions. He had
other***!***, provided for Ms next of kin and had mado
"provision* for them satisfactorily to himself anil lt was
tho satisfaction of his Wishes that was hf*re to be r*..n
Sloered. .Th" sneaker react fhe b**qn*"-is made for Mr.
Tflden's next of Mn and declared that if his wishes were
to be respected all the provisions of the will must bo
carried out.
A r.RKAT LIBRaRY FOR Tllf. CITY.
Tho t?ttator had In mind In establishing the Tilden
Trust the giving to this city of a larger library than
was ever given to any community In the world. Ho
had recognized the possible difficulty of having lils
Intentions In this respect carried out and had. there?
fore. Inserted the alternative clause In the will. Mr.
Rollin* Insisted that the trust could be carried out.
The testator's preferences wore clearly manifested.
He directed that a charter should bo obtained for tho
Tilden Trust and that lt should bear his name.
Did this mean nothing? He would not contend that
the alternative clause, jiving the trustees power to
"?elect the charities le which the property might bo
applied, wat good In lt*w nor would he concede that lt
was bad. What he claimed wa* that the trust first
spoken of as valid. In England and under tho
laws of sixteen State* of this ooh nt ry lt would, beyond
all doubt, be sustained. The law In this Rate, too,
was clearly laid down and wss firmly established hy
decisions of the Court of Appeals. Let ll be assumed,
for the sake of argument, that the alternative clause
was not worth the paper lt was wrlfScn on. What
then! It was a well-established nile that where the
Intentions of a testator were clear, as he claimed that
they were In this ruse, they must l.e carried ont.
Ex-Surrogate Hollins had not fln'shod his argument
when the court adjourned to 10:1*0 a. m. to-day.

FOR AND AGAINST AETHUB SILL BRIDGE.
A HEARING Bf* TOR- A BOAFD OP OeVBRNMBNT
ENOIN-ERS?CONFLICTING TESTIMONY.
A botrd of irmy officer, of lb* United State* Corea pf
Rnglneera tit at the Army Building, Houston pad Greene
it*., yesterday, ind listened to teet_ony of wltn**ee* I
and argument* of counsel reg*rdlng the bridge tn procese
ll erection by tho Baltimore ind Ohio ind the Staten
Masai lUpld Transit compantep over th* Arthur Kill be- I
tween Staten Island and New-Jeriey. The board was
convened by order of the Secretary of Wir, ind ti com
uosed of Colonel Thomas Lincoln Casey, president; Lieu?
tenant-Colonel Henry M. Robert, LleuteMnt-Colonel Peter
C. Hains, Maior William R. King tnd Captain Edward
Maculre. recorder. LtH December Prepldent Robert*, of
the Pennsylvania, md Pre*ldent Wilbur, of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad companies, petitioned the Secretary of
War to direct ? the removal of the whole ttruoture, or
such alteration to be made In the bridge ts will prevent
the obstruction of navigation thal now re?
mits from tho construction of the present
v*..iit, and will be most seriously Increased by its
completion on lu present plan." The bridge, which was
authoiued by act of Concres* approved June 16, lb86, io
be erected under the supervision of the War Department,
and to be completed June 80. 1888, hu t centre tbuunent
with a draw tpan on either side of 200 feet, and lt thirty
1.ve feet above the water tt low tide. Ita cost to date
wat paid to be (300.000. The board's instruction* wen
to Inquire whether the bridge ls dangerous and obstructive
u. na*, .pallon, and report Its conclusion* and recommenda?
tions to the Secretary of Wtr.
Ex I'nlted State* Senator W. J. Sewell appeared for the
Pennsylvania; Wilson S. Bissell, of Bufltlo, President
Cleveland's former law partner, for the Lehigh Valley,
and Albert ll. Boardman, of the law firm of Macfarlane,
Boardman & Platt, for the Baltimore and Ohio and Staten
Island companies. Mr. Sewell presented the petitioners'
brief and a mas* of a (lida vita, together with maps and
drafts. Tbe Arthur Kill pt the bridge, he said, wit only
'.00 fret wide, tnd the bridge would be t serloui Incon?
venience to the navigation of pd Important waterway,
throuKh which 10,000,000 tons of freight passed annually.
The. bridge, he aald, had raised the rate of towage from
6 cents per ton between Amboy and New-York Bay to 12
cents per ton, and greatly lessened the sggregaie. Among
the witnesses examined were Chief Engineer Richard*, of
the Pennsylvania road, ez-Senttor D. C. Chase, of South
Amboy, superintendent of the Delaware and Rtrltan Tow?
ing Line; ind Captain Iaate L. Fisher, of the Perth
Amboy Towing Line, whose testimony went tc establish
the difficulty and danger of navigating the Arthur Kill
since the building of the bridge wis begun. An tffldavli
by Robert H. Sayre, vice-president of the Lehigh Valley,
declares that If the bridge lt built tt proposed, ht will
advise hia company to cease Ita Improvements at Perth
Amboy, which, he says, have now cost 12,000,000, ind
to seen another terminus. The counsel urged thu the
building should be stopped ind that Instead the bridge
should be built which was recommended hy the engineer
board, of which General J. C. Duane, United States En?
gineers, was president, to have * 460 feet span on the

The speculation in stocks was directed again
by Missouri Pacific, which is supposed to repre?
sent in a special degree the views and possibly
the pecuniary interests of the present managu*
mont of the Gould Southwestern system. A de?
cline of about. 3 per cent in the prioe yesterday
resulted in only a fractions*)! los*, to the general
list, and for this reason perhaps a further break
was nc_s_ry. It was noticeable, however, that
Missouri Paciflo fluctuated within a rangs of 1-2
per cent until the last hour, and that then lt
was selling at the opening price. The fall from
81 3-8 to 75 1-2 was rapid at times, but near the
close the sales between 70 and 75 1 2 amountod
to less than 1,000 shares. With the aid of a
further decline of over '_ per cent iu Western Union,
the effect was a general decline of about 1 per cent.
It ought not to be overlooked that Manhattan
closed 1 6-8 and Pacific Mail 2 per cent lower. The
only other stock tbat fell heavily was New-Eng?
land, which may bo more or less under Gould
influence.
The market was active Ht the decline, and for
that reason the movement was cordially w_t
comed by everybody. It is impossible to detect
the purposes which underlie the recent decline,
and probably the only cause is the proftvsssionul
character of the siieculation. In the trading
view, it ls of little consequence that the Bur?
lington strike is virtually ended, that fresh labor
troubles are nearly impossible, and that every
day brings nearer thc favorable action of Con?
gress on financial (questions. The constant pro?
gress made by the English Parliament towara tho
conversion of British funds is a fact that ought
not tao be overlooked by American investors or
speculators. It is only less important than the
possible action of Congress. The influence is
6ren in the European demind for first-class se?
curities, a demand that already has delayed tho
usual spring exports of gold until there is a rea?
sonable doubt whether large shipments will be
made. The course of prices to-day seemed to in?
dicate that the general market will break I0060
from the stocks that at present control it. Tho
closing was slightly abovo the lowest figures.
WHAT WAS DONE IN BONDS.
Government bonds were unusually active,
without concessions in prices. There was a fair
demand at the offices of the principal dealers.
The closing quotations were as follows:

There were no transactions in State bonds, and
the only sale of city bank stocks was of Fourth

Railroad bonds moved in sympathy with tho
speculation in shares, and almost without excep?
tion were lower. The lars-em 'Iodines wore in
the Issues of the Southwestern system. St.
Louis and Iron Mountain 5s fell 3 1-2 per cent
to xi 1-2, snd Missouri, Kansas and Texas con?
sol 7s suffered the same loss at 96, while general
6s declined 1 1-2 to til, and general fis were onlv
ll ss weak at 55. Missouri Paelf-c consols yield?
ed 3-4 per cent at ll. 1-4. The other dealings
Wi r<- not significant. Erie seoond consols were
steady, closing only 1-4 lower at 05 3-4. and as
