"Ny lips are sealed by solemn promise
but if disclosed what / know, the rooi o.
Plymouth Church would come right OH.
Another time he said to me: Il know !
great deal more about this case than you
do, and what you know is bad enough.
Carpenter says he accompanied Illton
when he went to
for advice, and the former said: DR.. Storrs,
l come to you for advice in regard
to the proper action to be taken
by myself in reference to the state
ments made in the Woodruff Ietter'
DR.. Storrs replied: have not read the
statement by Mrs. Woodruff, but II you
think it is Of sufficient Importance to merit
attention, will do so. Dr. Storrs read the
story, and few days later, when Iilton
visited him, said:
Mr.. TiltOD, have read this paper care
fully, and if the statements are true, IdraW
from them four conclusions.
Mr.. Tilton asked what they were.
DR.. StorTs then said:
/. That Mr.. Beecher and Mrs. TiltOn
had criminal relations.
=. That you discovered that.
3. That Mr Beecher received a paper
from Mrs. T'ilton denying such relations
ever existed.
A. Mr.. MOultOn got that paper from Mr.
Beecher.
Mr.. Titon-Dr. Storrs, what if those
points can't be denied?
DIR. StOrrs-If those points cannot be
denied l have no advice TO give. An eva
sion wOuld be worse than silence.
TiltOn said that he had not told and
could not tell them the whole truth.
Coming TO an End.
Gen. Tracy said to-day the committee
hoped to end the whole thing this week.
Mr.. MOultOn, Mr.. Beecher and one or two
minor witnesses, are all thet are TO be eX-
amined.
A Voice from wisconsin.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, July 29.-The Sen
tiael this morning publishes an interview
with Hon. E. d. HoltOn, referred to in the
dispatches last evening as being present
VIXEN Bowen said that the tripartiIe agree
ment was no retraction of the charges
against Beecher so far as he (BOwen) was
concerned. Mr.. Holton admitted that he
was present, and that he remembered
tie conversation, but declined to give the
details at present.
LATER-CoHcerning BOwen's statement
that Beecher had been guilty of imprOpri-
cites with number Of women, and was
unsafe for visits 10 the houses Of members
Of the church-HOltOn says he asked
Bowen if he had made such charges against
RNecher and if he knew them TO be true.
Bowen refused to deny or acknowledge
their truth. HOlton construed his silence
into an admission that Tilton's letter truth
fully stated what has transpired.
NOuIton still Holds Back.
New YORK, July 29.-The Beecher ex-
amining committee met tonight in Brook
lyn. but adjourned after a session lasting
an hour, without, it is believed, examining
any witness. Mr.. MoultOn was TO have
submitted the letters held by him at to-
nights session but he did not put in an ap-
pearance. 1t is stated Mr. Beecher will not
Law the detailed statement before the COM
mittee until Moulton's testimony has been
taken.

OUR reporters conversed with a num-
ber of citizens from the country dis
tricts yesterday. all of whom agree in
saying that the negroes are fast de-
claring for Robertson. In fact, Rob-
ertson Is the m9n we will have to beat
for jailor. FOrewsrnedis forearmed; let
Heverin's friends watch this point.
A well posted man states that in
one district where there are seventy
colored votes, Robertson will get sixty
five. The negroes gave Robertson
1924 votes in 1872 and Will give HIM at
least $500 next Thursday. If the
white men do not turn out, he will have
a dead sure thing on that Jail for the
next two years.

to seriously alarm Germany, and inter-
fere with Bismarck s reconstruction of

aud Tor time It was feared that two OF
them would not recover.
Views OF the weather Bureau.
The U. S. Signal Observer at this point
says there were no indications Of a storm
on Sundyy night, except slight change in
the barometer. 1t appeared to come from
the Northwest and passed the city west
ward. The disasters in ChaTtieville were,
perhaps, half an hour later than those at
Butchers Run and Woods Run. The
weather observer rejects the theory Of
water-spout, and thinks that, owing to the
peculiar geographical formation Of this sec
tiOn Of country, such a disaster could be
caused at any time in those sections by
what he terms an extraordinary rainfall.
Subscriptions to the relief fund are pour
ing in rapidly, and up to this time over
$4,000 has been raised. Returns received
at the County Commissioners Office show
that 20 bridges were swept away by the
food, entailing a loss of about $4,000.
In the Butchers Run district alone it is
said more than
10000, 900 Cubic Feet Of water
fell in tine space of an hour and half.
