MIR. TILTCN'S SCANDAL.
The Case Against MIR. Beecher.-
Newspaper Gossip, Etc.

New YORK. July 16 The Brooklyn Eagle
says the Beecher investigating committee had
another meeting last evening, the result OF
which is carefully kept secret Enough. how
ever, leaked out to warrant the assertion that
the crisis of the Beecher-TIlton scandal has
been reached. The case of Mr.. Beecher is
fully known to the com mittee, and the bond OF
anxiety with which his friends have been bur
dened need no longer be borne. The so call ed
very worst is known that it is nothing but what
an explanation and the apology of one gentle
man 10 another gentleman would fully atone
for. 1t may bt safely inferred that Mr.. Beech
er will come out of the furnace of sfhiction in
which be has been so sorely tried, with pub
Inc estimate of his private character like god
many tines refined.
A rumor that Theodore Tilton had Leguu
proceedings in divorce against his wife, and
that the case had been placed in the hands OF
Judge Morse. caused a reporter to call upon
the latter gentleman. The Judge disavowed
any knowledge of the proceedings and stated
that be do not believe such a ;tion was con-
tempated by Tiltou.
The Brooklyn Union contains an interview
with Mrs. Oviugton, with whom Mrs. Tilton
has been stopping, of which the following is
an extract:
Reporter understand from statement in
one OF the morning papers, that Mrs. Tilton
will return to her old home in Livingstone
street. and that Mr.. Tllton will leave it to hel
ald her family.
Mrs. Ovington-Oh, you may be certain that
family matters will be arranged without any
difficulty on either side. MIR. Tilton is man
of an aifectiOnate, generous nature. He, be-
eve, sufferers intensely now. We have moi
seen him since Saturday, when Mrs. Tlltou
came TO our house, but you may rest assured
that he has no hard vindctive feelings towards
his wife. 1 suppose that when these family
matters come to be arranged the world must
know of them, but the world will find thai
there WAS no ili-will on either side
The Brooklyn Argus publishes an interview
with Mr.. Titon, in which he denies having
said to anybody that be would make revea
ton in his statement that will drive Mr.. Beech
er from the ministry. He also said II ask
tor no compromise or cOncealment. | stanC

referred the counsel to the books of the irm for
most of the information desired Mr. Fahen-

New York, said that at the time of the suspen-
sion of the firm of Jay Cooke & Co., they were
indebted to Jay Cooke, McCulloch & Co. The
latter firm held no collateral to secure this IN
debtedness. Jay Cooke & Co. were solvent on
September 18th, and insovent on Septem-
Der 2Sth, caused. by their inability to raise
funds to meet the demands The chief
cause was the advances made to the Northern
Pacific Railroad. All the advances were made

ton to awnings and trees was great. Nearly
every street was strewn with boughs and frag-
ments. The tall chimneys of the manufacto
ries of H. e. Hill and avis &, Melendy were
blown down. The roof of Stott's mill on Law
renee Street, was taken across the street and

To His Honor Samuel c. Cobb, Mayor of

The people of Chicago will always remember
and be gratified Tor the kind feelings and kinder
acts of Boston aud her citizens The fire of

to relieve or that would justify acceptance OF
aid from abroad. The damage to prop

There has been no serious injury to any i'm

POLICE NoTEs.-Flve sailors got on their
fighting legs yesterday afternoon, near the post
office. All went to the police station, with eyes
in mourning and heads considerably mellowed.
That lovely locality known as Stafford S
block was the scene OF lively time yesterday
between man and woman. The woman
made the first move by breaking a tumbler over
the head of the man, cutting him in very I'M
ladvlike manner. The hot weather and the
determined attention of the woman enraged
the man and he ungallantly retaliated by strk-
ing the woman, whereat Il general hair squall
ensu d, until both We're covered with blood, and
he ct TIE sterner stuff had his nasal organ put
out of joint.
The hot weather and rifle rum turned the
head of John Davis of Deering, TO such an ex-
tent that he undertook and admirably su coed
ed in breaking up housekeeping. j. d. was
relieved of further service in that line by being
transferred to the police station.
A woman was found on Fore Street yester-
day morning lying on the sidewalk dead drunk.
