nor an enlarged committee on the plan
just mentioned, nor any other committee
of any kind could by itself have persuad-
ed or compelled me to lay before you the
facts contained in the preceding state
ment. Distinctly be it understood that
these facts have not been laid before
your committee because of any authority
which recognize in you as a tribunal
of inquiry, nor would they have been
yielded up to any other committee or
board of reference however constituted,
except q court of law; but on the contra
ry, have divulged the above statement
solely because open published demands
for it were made directly to me by Rev:
Henry Ward Beecher, aided and assisted
by Mrs. E. R. Tilton. These two parties
and these alone, and not your committee,
have by their action prevailed with me.
No other authority OF influences, except
a court of law, could have been powerful
enough TO extort from me the above dis
closures. Fer the sake of one OF these
parties, gladly would | have continued
to hide these acts in the future as l have
striven to do in the past, but by the
joint action of Beecher and Mrs. Tilton
can withhold the truth only at the price
of popular infamy to my name In addi-
ton to the penalty which | already SUI
fer in the destruction of a home once as
pleasant as any in which yourselves
dwell. Respectfully.

the Secretary Of War has instructed
the General of the army as follows:
July 20-respectfully returned to the
General Of the Army IN accordance with
suggestions and recommendations read
to-day from the Acting Secretary OF the
Interior. The Commissioner OF Indian
Affairs says the guilty Indians Will he
pursued and punished wherever found,
and reservation lines should be no bar
rier to such operations. Care should be
taken not to strike innocent and friendly
Indians who are near the Agency and
have taken no part in the recent HOSTILE
ties. Measures should be Immediately
taken to keep friendly Indians from
others, and permission should be offered
to Others who are friendly and have not
had an opportunity to join those who
wish to come in; that all who persist in
hostilites should be pursued and pun
ished. The Secretary of the Interior
will be Immediately informed OF these
instructions and copy OF the letter to
the Secretary of the Interior, of July Is,

SAN DIEGO, July Following is the
decision in the case of the United States
against W. j. Mccormick: ITO warrant
a committal of the accused, the evidence
must be such as to afford q strong pre-
sumption of his guilt. This is the law
governing these cases. l have carefully
and impartialy examined the evidence,
and the law presented before me in this
case, and find that while there are some
circumstances that place the defendant
in somewhat unfavorable light, thel e
are none of character sufficiently
strong to warrant, on the evidence be-
fore me, committal, therefore the de-
PENDANT is hereby discharged" D. B.

Gentlemen of the committee, having
laid before you the above sworn state

to the relations of Mr.. Beecher with Mrs.
Tilton, and with no other persian or per-
sons, I wish to add an explanation due
to yourselves: In the Golden Age, lately
edited by me, the suggestion was made,
not with my knowledge or consent, that
your committee, in order to be Justly
constituted, should comprise, in addition
to the six members appointed by Mr..
Beecher, any others appointed by my
self. To no such proposal would l
have consented, for I have never
waited any tribunal whatever for an in
vestigation OF this subject. Neither
your committee as at present constituted,
