York dailfos haye boen picking up the crumha Of
this Deooher-Tlton matter, 1uK TRIBUNE has
boldly picked up tho loaf and walked off with 1t.
It commissioned "Gath," ita well~known corro-
spondent, to 60 and visit Triton and Moulton,
and get 1lat as many Of the factB In tho caso AZ
he could lay his hnnda on. "Gath" struck
Moulton when lo Waa in 4 communicative mood,
and gathered from him about four columns OF
matter going to the roots Of the controversy.
Thia WAS published in The Tribune Of last Mon
day, and, when received In Now York, orcatod 80
mich o1oltoment that tho whole st&tomont mas
topub]iBhed in extras and circulated by tho tholl-
Hand all oyet New York and Brooklyn.
In addition, "aath" obtained from Mr. Tilton'a
counsel tho ontiro correspondence between Dir.
Tilton and hiB wife from 1866 down to 1870.
THIS Is published IN TIE TnynuxE Of Thursday,
making about thirty-two columns Of that paper.
IT is . most remarkable oorreapondence, aud can
but have d marked influence upon tho public
mind. We defy any ono to read 1t and not riao
from tho peruHat With the conviction that Mr..
Tilton, as revealed in those lottera. Ia noble-
minded man, and unlssorving Of tho troatmont
ho has received at the hands OF the public. It
