DATES IN TILHON- -BEECHER CASE

Now that the curtain has dropped-tor
the moment, at least-upon the Tilton-
Beecher drama, it may prove of interest
to recall the leading dates in its pro
gress.
According to the statement of Mr.. Til
, ton the first knowledge of the alleged
offense came to him on the Sd of July,
1870, Just five years ago, in the shape OF
confession from his wife.
In November, 1879, Victoria Woodruff
published in her Weekly long and cir
cumstantial account of the alleged liaison
between Mr.. Beecher and Mrs Tilton.
May 80, 1873, the lubic were aston
p ished by the appearance in the New
York papers of the "Tripartite Cove
6 nant," signed April @ 1872, by II. c..
Bowen, Theodore Tilton and H.W Beech
er. which commenced: "We three men,
earnestly desiring to remove all causes
ofFense existing between us, real or
fancied, and to make Christian repara-
ton for injuries done or supposed to be
done, and to efiace the disturbed past,
, and to provide concord, good will, and
love for the future, do declare and cove
nant each to the other, as follows, &c"
In August, 1873, Mr.. William f. West,
a member Of Plymouth church, called
IUnon Mr. Triton and informed him that
he intended to cite him before the
church for uttering ISLANDERS against its
pastor.
On the evening of October 81, 1873, at
the Plymouth church meeting, motion
was made to drop Tilton's name from the
church roll. Tilton rose in the meeting
and asked Mr.. Beecher if he tTilton) had
ever sla1idered him Beecher.) Mr.. Beech
er replied that he had no charges what
ever to make against Mr.. Tilton, That
ended the matter and Tilton's name was
dropped from the rolls OF plymouth
{ church, be having previously declared
he was no longer member.
A Congregational Council was held In
the spring OF 1874, to consider the action
of Plymouth church in dropping Mr.
o Tilton's name without investigating the
charges. Nothing came of the council,
but DR.. Leonard Bacon, who presided,
made the affair the subject of lecture
which he delivered in New Haven, and
for number of essays which appeared
in the Indcpslde,d In these papers Dr.I
3 Bacon Landed Mr. Beecher and denounc-
ed NJ. Tilion as u "dog and knare,"

THELATEST TREASURY SCANDAL.
PARTICULARS OE THE SERIOUS CHARGES
AGAINST CHIEF CLERK AVERY

PARTICULARS 0E THE SERIOUS CHARGES
AGAINST CHIEF CLERK AVERY
WASHINGTON, July S,-The following
statement is published as an outline Of
the charges Of McGrew against Avery,
Chief Clerk of the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau. Mr.. McGrew says that Joyce knew
the workings of the Revenue Bureau, Of
knowledge acquired while he was clerk
in that office, and appreciated the value
of having the cooperation of the clerk
who handled the secret correspondence.
1t was therefore decided, after confer
ence, to employ McGrew to come ON to
Washington, and, if possible, secure Mr.
Avery in the interests of the ring. Nc
Grew fulfilled this mission, returned to
St. Louis, and reported that he had con-
traCted with Avery at the rate Of 500
per week, in consideration of which he
was to furnish Joyce such information
as would apprise him of the movements
of the secret afiicers Of the Bureau in any
efforts put forth by the Government to
investigate fraudu lent transactions. This
McGrew says Avery did. and claims to
have correspondence connecting him di-
rectly with Illicit transactions and, in ad-
dition, refers to dispatches which passed
between Joyce and Avery and Avery and
himself, which are obtained from the
files of the Western Union Telegraph
office.
Forthirteen weeks McGrew says Avery
continued to supply the information re-
quired at the compensation contracted
for.
Then he wrote a letter, in which he
set forth that his pay was not adequate
to the important service he rendered,
and subsequently it was agreed to in
crease the pay, and for the twenty-six
weeks ensuing and up to the time Avery
was made Chief Clerk of the Treasury
Department he was compensated at the
rate of $500 per week.
