TTLTON-BEECHER.

THE telegraph says that Moulton had
made his statement before the Beecher
committee Monday night, but that his
reading of the same and cross-examina-
ton only occupied an hour, and that il
would not be made public until noon to-
day. 1t is reported further that
"Moulton said he was prepared to sub
nit the originals of the letters cited by
Mr.. TiltOn in his statement, but apart
from doing that he had no statement to
make. His part in this business, he ad-
ded, had been that Of peace-maker
and that role he proposed to adhere to,
OF gossip that had come tohis ears in
any way, he had resolved to say nothing
If Mr. Beecher and Mr., Tilton we're de-
terminedto fight, he could not prevent
them, but he was resolved to add no fuel
to the fame. The letters Of which Nh
Moulton promises to supply the origin
ais are only those that Tilton quotesfTom
in.his statement. " t.l, 10
Therefore, all the furry about Moul
toms ability to settle the question, anc
dispose Of Beecher,s guilt or innocence
is without any certainty. Moulton talkeC
too much for a man who knew SO littlt
beyond what Tilton told him.
