FALLING OFF In BUSINESS
Tho month closes with dnll market. The
falling OF in business rs compared rith last gear
ia very marked A study OF the tabular state-
ment below is, however, suggestive Of consolation
for those who ARG trying to get out Of debt If not
for those who are trying to drag people into
debt. The proportion Of releases 10 incumbran-
oes in February, 1874, Was 67.s6 per cent Tho
proportion for tho present month is S73< per
cent The average Of each instrument fled for
record in February, 1874, was 1850; for the
esma month this year it is 81, 40.
There is m Impression abroad that M act now
pending in the Legislature, with regard TO tho
rate Of 1ntenest that may bs lawfully charged by
foreign corporations will, If enacted. give great
impetus to tho loaning- -business It is said that
many Of tha largest agencies have held aloof
from tho market On account Of the pendeucy Of
nhis act, aud that they arc now prepared to do
business On liberal torns, believing that ths
passage OF tbs net il assured. This can scarcely
be accepted as fully accounting for the dullness
ahat has characterized the market since the COM
Ioncement Of the year. 1t my rate, borrow
szs still continue to pay 10 per cent with unim-
paired chee1fulness.

TEE KENOSHA TELEGRAPH
KENOSHA, WIS, APRIL s, 1875.

THE TILToN-BEECHER trial is
making progress, and the defense is
successfully pursuing the course
indicated in 'Tracy's opening. Mrs.
Moulton was the most reliable
witness on the part Of the prosecu-
ton against Beecher. It will be
remembered that she swore positive
~ to Beecher having confessed to
her at her house his committing
adultery with Mrs. Triton, and as
positively the day on which the
confession was made. The defense
has shown by several witnesses that
Beecher wenton that day toPeekshll
and could not have been at Moul-
toms at the same time.
BECKER was called and sworn as
a witness on Thursday the first Of
April and is still on the witness
stand. He has emphatically con-
tradicted Tilton and Moulton in all
their important testimony against
him and has given CONSTANT
explanation of his own letters and
other papers which were brought into
Court as being apparently against
him. lie has also given an account
of his acquaintance and interviws
with Mrs. Woodruff, and how they
were brought about,
Beecher will probably be several
days yet under examination for the
defense and bafore his cross examin-
tion is commenced. AS his exam
ination proceeds it is reported that
Tilton's attorneys are becoming more
and more nervous and excited and tits
expected that in their cross examina'
tionthey will makea terrible onslaught
and determined effort to break down
his testimony. Whatever course
they think will be most likely to be
successful will undoubtedly be
pursued, but in all probability with
cut success. Beecher's testimony is
consistent with the whole transac.
tons and his manner of giving il
has the appearance Of It's being true,
and we do not believe that his cross
examination will effect much change.

THE Circtit Court convened yesterday,
Judge Paine presiding, but in conse.
quence of tie i'll health Of Mr.. Quarles
and others, most of the principal jury
cases will be put over until next fall
term, and coart is not expected to be in
session more than three days.
Our readers may recollect that rape
case that was tried last November (hav-
ing taken change Of venue to this
county, in which the jury disagreed. -
A synopsis will not be cut Of
the way.-In February 1874 a German
girl, partly non compos noentSs. was re-
quested by young man that worked on
her mothers farm at Evanston, ILL.,, to go
to Mencminee Falls, Waukesha County,
and IN premise of marriage she did So
Upon arriving there, he rsfused to have
anything to do with her, and the poor
girl was then picked up by some Is of
the boys and dragged from one saloon to
other, until about 1l:30 p. M, she got
alarmed at hr wing long distance to 60
and requested the proprietor of the
saloon to pick her out an escort. He
asked drunken fellow to do so, and
instead of their going through the
back way across the church yard, they
turned into the highway, where they
were met by Is boys. They had not
proceeded very far before the man that
was accompanying her home was
knocked down, and she was set upon by
the crowd, who placed a phial contain
ing some drug in her mouth, which
rendered her unconscious. and she was
theR most yuthlessly ravaged. The girl
was unconscious for weeks after wards 8,
and was not expected to live.
The girl has been confined in the care
of the Sheriff of Waukesna County until
a month ago, ana the Supervisors not
wishing to lay out more money IN
prosecuting the case ordered the Dis
trlctaAstorney to enter a aolZs prossqu5.
That was accordingly dane and the viii
aims are now at liberty. The girl how
ever, had almost $400 coming to her
from the county and the fellow who
first requested her to leave her mother s
house, hearing of that, went and married
the girl, So that is the finale of one of
the most dastsrdly rape cases that has
ever happened in this State, but those
Implicated ought certainly to have been
brought to justice. Does this speak we'll
of Waukesha County?

Some years ago the pastor of a
New England village church adopted
plan to interest the members of his
flock in the study Of the Bible. It
was this: At the Wednesday even
ing meeting he would give out some
topic to be discussed on the ensuing
week, thus giving week for them
to study it up, One week the SUBJ
jject was St. Paul. After the
preliminary devotional exercises, the
pastor called upon his deacons to
''speak to the question" One imme-
diately arose and began to describe
the the personal appearance of the
