More About the Beecher.Tilton Suit.
The attorneys for Tilton this morning
served on the attorneys for Beecher and
City Court, Brooklyn, notice of appeal to
the general term Of the city court from the
order of Judge McCue requiring 1ilton to
furnish bill of particulars.
Tilton's counsel, after q careful reading
and consideration of McCue's order, con-
fess an inability to understand it's exact
meaning and effect. They construe the |
judges written opinion, however, to
mean that on the trial the main
issue shall be not whether adul- |
tery was committed by the defendant,
but whether it was committed on or about |
dates and at places specified in the bill of |
particulars ordered to be furnished, and |
that no evidence can be given which does |
not treat upon this issue. Confessions, writ |
ing, etc.. tending to show adulterous inter- |
course. but in which no specific date or
place is mentioned, are left admissible by |
;he7oplnion OF McCue, but only to serve as |
general evidence that criminal acts were |
committed by the defendant ON specific
iares aud places named in the bill Of par.
iculars, and not to enable the jury to find
1im guilty generally.
TiltOn's counsel claim that the main issue
hOuld be whether the defendant is guilty,
eaving the jury free from limitation Of |
ime and place, and upon this ground they
ppeal. The appeal will be heard next
week.
Beecher's attorneys to-day duly notified
ilton's lawyers that they be ready for
rial the first Monday in January.
