COMMENTS OF THE Pass on BKEcHESs
SrArxNxSr.-A New York dispatch Of the 18th,
.sys OF the comments of the great New York
press on the Beecher--Tilton case: The
rttbxS, editorislIy says: I've believe that
candid readers will rise from Beechers ner-
vous recital with the conviction thst he has
been the victim of q nonstrous conspiracy.
The case rested on Beecher's letters, Moul.
toms private declaration that Beeeher had con-
fessed to him, Tilton's similar clsim and Mrs
Tiltou's alleged confession. Tilton's evil
aeuce-nsver cons dered of much value-ls
rendered contemplate by Beechers reply, and
his wife's testimony is valueless either way
because of its contradictions, and Moulton
ditto, because of his extraordinary conduct
snd general character, and because 1t Is utter
IL demolished by his own letter, explicitly adj
hitting that the whole case might be pub
lished and that Beecher could stand The
Tribune also denounces Moulton, whose hon
or would not let him tell the committee all
he knew, when he had already told 1t to the
correspondent of Chicago paper. The
Times thinks Beechers statement discloses
more cowardice and irrational behavior, nut
the impression will be general that his story
is not Inconsistent with innocence. The bo'td
says: "Beecher has explained his letters spar
ing neither Tilton. Moulton nor himself. thus
proving that he has nothing to conceal
Beecher dispels the only shadow of distrust
which may have crept over his good name
among fair and pure minded men," The
Herald says. "We cannot analyze Beechers
statements now. 1t is strong and perhaps
will be accepted by his friends as a vindica-
ton but we think the public will not accept
as final disposition of the case"
