MORE SCANDAL SLUSH.
What Vic. Woodruff saws.

New YORK, March Elm an in
terview with Victoria G. Wood
hull yesterday she expressed a dis
position not to say much regarding
the scandal until Beecher has tes-
titled. Then it was probable he
would have to be contradicted.---
Her lawyer was drawing up her
statement, which would be&issuId
at the proper time. She did not
expect to be . witness, but both
sides had been 10 her to ascertain
her mind and both seemed anxious
to get along with as little truth as
possible. III called she would tell
the whole truth, and that they did
not want. She claimed that Til
toms evidence proved his perfect
sympathy with her views on the
marriage and divorce question.
Tilton sues for damages, yet neith-
er he nor his wife, according to his
testimony has been injured dol
lars worth. If Beecher had first
denied the scandal as lie the
world would have backed him, but
he didn't dare. Kinsella told her
that Beechcr begged him for the
sake Of his twenty-five years serv-
ice In Brooklyn, and for his gray
hairs not to expose him. She redi-
iculed Mrs Moulton's position tes-
flying to her acts to comfort him
while talking Of his "sin." Mrs.
Moulton couldn't go to church and
take communion from Mr.. Beech
er's hands, but could drink Franks
fifteen dollar Burgundy and break
bread with him in her own house.
These facts show that Beecher was
more petted after these things hap
pened than before, by Moulten and
his wife. They all dreaded ex-
posture. Why don't they call Laura
Curtis Billiard, Bowen and a dozen
others who know the whole story?
There are too many families mix
ed up la this thing for either side
to desire the whole truth. 1t may
yet transpire. She went to Moul-
toms not to aid in suppressing the
Beecher scandal but in suppress
sing bigger scandal. Woodruff
in concluding the Interview, init
mated that something more seri-
Gus than the smallpox may yet be
spred in that Court room.
