NO COMPROMISE.

RumOYs we're rife yesterday afternoon in circles
usually well informed In all that goes regarding
the scandal that the real object OF the committee
IN resting and postponiDg matters for two or
three days was to effect Q compromise, or rather
to take no action while negotiations were going
on for Q compromise by others. The statement
that Mr.. Moulton had determined not to testify
against Mr.. Beecher IN consequence OF a pressure
upon him by General Benjamin F. Butler, which
was believed by many, lent some color 70 the
st&rement OF q compromise.
The statement comes of1cially however from
two members of the investigating committee-the
Chairman, Mr.. Sage, and another-that all rumors
OF . compromise are absurd, and that the COM
mittee viii simply persevere IN les work until the
end Is reached IN spite OF any attempts from either
side to compromise or IN any way interfere with
its action; not that any have been made, said the
Two gentlemen.
The reporter OF the HERALD called upon Mr.
Shearman to ascertain what he knew of the
yumor. Mr. Shearman was not at home ana It
was impossible 10 ind out where he was. 1t was
stated. however that ne had accompanied Mr..
Beecner to his PeekskIll home TO aid him in the
preparation or his statement
"A HERALD reporter had q short interview with
Mr.. 5. b. Halliday, the assistant pastor OF Ply
mise. Mr.. Halliday said emphancally tnat the
runor was wildly absurd, and that compromise
war lnpoBslple AZ tDls stage OF the proceedings.
Besides which, he added, the church would
never consent to any such means or
cndlng the matter. 1t was now bound to 20 on
anti the end, and nothing should stop It, Mr.. Hall
Nday had reason to believe that the rumor OF Gen.
erai Tracy Withdrawing from the case was not
Tue. Tnis statement was also confirmed by the
two members OF the committee spoken OF above.
The General, 1t appears, has no intention whatever
0f Withdrawing.
Mr.. Henry e. Bowen, son OF Henry c. Bowen.
the latter OF whom has figured prominently In
the whole case, wrote yesterday the following
card -
