The Beecher Trial.
NEW YORK. March 6.
General Cotton, President Of the Occi-
dental and Oriental Steamship Com
pany, has declined the position OF BIZ
rector OF the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company.
Rumors prevailed yesterday that
in the absence of any proceedings
in the Beecher trial that one of the
parties to the suit had withdrawn and
that there would necessarily follow "a
discon.inuance of the case. The ru-
mors doubtless grew out OF the re-
ports that one of the prime pal counsel
had resolved To withdraw in conse-
quence of the neglect to his other
business, which attendance for two
months in the Brooklyn court had
caused. He has been induced, how
ever, to remain in the case and will
doubtless conduct II to its close. JEFF
fries, the sick juror, has entirely re-
covered from his ~indisposition. The
attendance at the trial is to he limited
hereafter, as Judge Nelson has ex-
pressed his intention to allow to IN
ter the courtroom only such a uIn
Der of spectators that will just fill the
seats. When filled the courtroom
will hold at least 800 PERSONS, and on
no day since the trial began have there
been less than 500 spectators present.
Most persone who apply for admit
lance are ladies. Sometimes they uc-
coed in passing the guards.

ward turn in stocks caught two or
three large spectators heavily short,
and they threaten TO unsettle the gold,
foreign exchange and money markets
for the purpose OF driving the stocks
down to prices which they can cover
without loss. During the week, both
gold and currency have been taken out
of the banks to influence to-morrOw's
bank statements. 1t is said q clique
has been organized for the purpose OF
attempting a corne on gold. The OBJ
ject of the clique, while ostensibly
making gold scarce, is said to be to
bear stocks, nearly all of the parties
interested in the movement being
largely short of stock. Rumor has il
that the Bank Examiner will be APP
pealed to to Interfere in the matter.
