Alter February, and during that summer,
my relations with MFR. Tilton and Mr.. MOul-
ton were of the most friendly kind. I went
TO Mr.. TtltOns about breakfast time on the
TN OF February. We repaired 10 his study.
MI. Tilton met me as IL he had expected me.
He introduced his conversation with a recog-
milton OF the fact that we should act harmo-
niously together. There was n conversations
about how Mr.. Bowon had treated him in
business matters. He passed 10 Mr.. Bowers

same treatment from him. He instanced the
stories Bowen told about him,

his marital relations or vow, and told me OF

was setting out in the world 10 beware OF the
wiles OF the other sex. He said he thought
his life was surely coming TO an end, and
that as were 70 cooperate together be

little remembrance OF IL. Mr.. Tilton received

passed away, and while sitting there i'm the
old fashioned way chatting, Mrs. Tilton
came into the room Laughing and kissed me.
Up 10 this time i thought the difficulty be-

cept the performance OF my duty 10 him.
do not recall any other Interview at Mr..
Tilton's house in that year but one. At this
last saw Mrs Tllton alone; think I'm the
fall of 1871. Ii had connection with the diffi-
EVayts resd than han p5T TG Of MS Pod a
timony with regard 10 the interview I'm Feb
ruary between the witness aud Mr.. Tilton.
when the latter questioned the paternity OF
the boy Ralph, and the witness was asked IL
such a conversation ever took place. He re-
piled, "Never was there such a conversation
between him and me; IL is
A INDUSTRIOUS AND ABSOLUTE FALSEHOOD.
IApplause.l
Mr.. Fullerton here rose and denounced
JnlS manifestation OF appreciation, and sug-
geSted that officers be stationed in the room
and have offenders brought to the bar OF jus-
tice and committed for contempt He
thought this applause should not be wit
messed by the jury, as IL would perhaps pre-
judice them, and II such applause Were 20 he
allowed they might abandon their case aud
break up the trial
Mr.. EVarts said he believed the audience
were temperate throughout this trial, aud SO
natural an indication o. feeling could not be
entirely suppressed.
Mr. Fullerton said that when the witnesses
for the prosecution were on the stand all APP
plause, II there were any, was suppressed.
He hoped his honor would exert all his power
and use all the law he could 10 have that de-
corum observed which should characterize a
trial OF this kind.
Judge Nelson instructed the police cap
tain i'm charge 10 increase The force of officers
in the court, and IL necessary 10 arrest ten or
a dozen persons If they were disOrderly and
bring them before him, when he would deal
with them. He also advised the ladies i'm
the audience that IL would be deSira bic they
should not attend tomorrow or for a few
days, until a more fitting opportunity should
offer itself In a few weeks from now.
Mr.. Evarts then asked tie witness III in
that interview when he found Tilton at his
brea kfast Tilton asked him 10 give him the
correct date OF his (Beecher's) criminal init
macy with Mrs. Tilton, so as, IL possible, to
remove a shadow from the name of little
