70 Verdict in she Scandal Suit Yet
LOeder, ON Gross
COntradIcts His Previous
Statement.

New YORK, June 30.-The jury in the
Tilton- -Beecher case have not yet come
to any agreement. Counsel for Tilton
are ia consultation in the courthouse.
The examination of Joseph LOeder
began this morning. Robert Grannis
testified that in conversation held with
Loeder about his (LoedeI's) statement,
the latter had told him there was some
truth in it, with good deal Of exagger-
alton; that with regard to the kissing
between Mrs. Tiltcn and Beecher it was
correct; that it was correct that he went
into the room as described, and in COM
ing out saw Mrs. Tilton and Beecher;
but there was nothing unusual in their
attitudes. Nothing new was elected on
the crOss-eXsmination. Owing to the
absence Of other witnesses the case was
adjourned till tomorrow.
messrs. Abbott, Shearman, Tracey
and Hill came up shortly after this and
went into consultation, after which
Messrs. Abbott and Pearssll left the
building, but would give no information
as to Whist was proceeding, At quar-
ter past two this afternoon the confer
ence broke up, but counsel are still retl-
cent.
Up to three o'clock this evening moth
ing looking to the result has been re-
ceived from the Beecher-TiltOn jury.
At ten O'clock the courthouse was
locked and the jury retired for the night.

HELENA, June 30.-The World block
was destroyed by fire this morning, the
incendiary's torch having been applied
at five o'clock. The territory where
yesterday existed q number of houses is
now a mass Of ruins. The World job
and printing office was completely
burned out. The loss on that institution
is estimated at eight thOu,ald dollars;
insured for four thousand seven hundred
dollars. The building Was the prop rty

From the Union City (Tenn.) Reveille.l
A fearful and most diabOlical report
was in circulation on the streets this
week Of one of the most hellish and de-
testable crimes ever conceived by the
thoughts of human devils. A gentle
man Of reliability, who came from near
the lake in this county, states that one
day last week poor, but respectable lady
had her person violated by three drunk
en- demons in the presence Of Ter hus-
band, and only a few weeks after con-
finement. The three scoUndTels rode up
to the house, presented their pistols to
the head of the husband, and compelled
him to stand and witness one after the
the other commit their terribly hellish
act. Misery, misery, it is almost too
sickeniDg to relate, They made their
escape and, from last reports, have not
been heard from. One Of the scoundrels,
we understand, is named Mansfield.
The names OF the other parties we have
not yet learned. Heaven alone knows
what should be the punishment Of these
devils in human form; burning is too
good for them.

The special correspondent of the
Vicksburg Herald calls attention to the
fact that one Of the most important fea-
lures connected with the coming canvass
in that State, and on which, next to the
cOlOr-line, depends the success of the
Democracy and the rescue Of the State
from ruin, is the registration law. The
last legislature passed the bill, and Gov
ernor Ames signed it, yet the far-seeing
and scbeming wire-workers in the Rad
icsl camp are very much vexed at its
passage, which they attribute to
L sInocratic shrewdness and Radical
stupidity in the Legislature, and they also
denounce Ames as blockbead for ever
signing the bill. To show how much
importance is attached to this subject by
the Radicals, it is intimsted that spe-
cial session Of the legislature will be
called to Tepeal the law, SO that dead
mems papers can be voted on, and all
sorts of frauds perpetrated with the reg
istratiOn papers as in former elections.

THE plsPue Of rats still continue to
ravage that portion Of British Iudia bor-
dering on Burmah. The vermin have
swarmed in such numbers as to consume
the whole Of two haTvests. Their ravages
cover an area of six thousand square
miles, embracing a population, among
whom are many converts, both Protes-

ment has already expended over forty
thousand rupees among the famishing,
but much more is needed to prevent SUI
