AFTER RECESS

MF. Beach continued his address, saying
he would consider some minor topics.
He referred 10 Beecher's call upon Mrs.
Tilton when he came from Peekskill for
that purpose az one Of the little cirCum.
stances which CorfOBorated the case Of the
plaintiff. lie alluded again to the charges
OF blackmail, and then took the evidence
Of Bessie Turner. lie argued that the
story Of her removal from her bedroom
was absurd. He did not care to make a
charge Of willful untruth against this
witness, but that her theattic nature Ito
borrow a word from the defense) and the
pruriency Of her Imagination had led her
Into great exaggeratlon. He thought
there could be no doubt
ONE IMPORTANT FACT
appeared from her testimony, that AZ
early as December IA, 1870, Mr.. Tilton
charged his wife with adultery, although
the defense claimed that this charge re-.
suited from conspiracy which was not
formed until December 10Th. Moreover
Mrs. Bradshaw testified. although Bessie
Turner denied 1t, that The fact was com.
mnnicated al to her BY Bessie Turner rat at
that date.
Counsel continued: The issue can not
bo avoided. The plaintiffs witnesses
must be convicted Of perjury or else Mr..
Beecher has quieted his conscience by a
form Of denial Of his own selection.
Counsel stated that there were cases
where men had lied to save the honor

OF women with whom they had had
intrigues, and that such instances
ii was thought no sin, and he quoted sev.
eral cases as examples. Counsel then
quoted from a sermon OF BeeCher in
which he said that the first thing after
committing crime was to purify your
self from Il, and then take counsel from
some friend. This was the teachings Of
Beecher and the question was whether he
had acted on his own theory and con-
vinced his own mind and conscience that
this was case where he should commit
that which under other circumstances
would be a grievous sin. Beecher had
often shown the tenderness which beset a
man who lied even in the court OF hiI
own mind where
HE ENpEAvORED TO BETRAY AND DE.
CEIvE HIMSELF.
Mr.. BeeCher says he does not marvel
that there Is SO much lying, but the mar.
vel to him was that there was so little OF
it. Counsel quoted from a sermon Of the
deiendent, "0ur Relations to the Atone
ment," in which Mr.. Beecher spoke Of the
idea Of a God suffering for a world, and
that there were some men who felt that
they had no need OF an atonement, and
says Mr.. BeeCher, n do not believe in It's
need" Henry Ward Beecher was teaching
the inspiration Of tho Scriptures while he
did not believe in one Of itS corner.stones.
All the apostles, said Mr.. Beach, teach
US that salvation was reached through
the atoning blood Of Christ, and all this
was rejected by
BEECHER, WHO DID NOT BELIEVE IN THE
SAVING BLOOD OF A REDEEMER,
and yet Tracy, in his opening, branded
MouIton US n heathen, while Beecher was
held up asthe pure and Christian charaC.
tor Of the age, Mr.. Beach made further
quotations from Mr.. BeecGer's sermons,
in order to show that his teachings were
in a measure departure from orthodox
faith, and the court adjourned,

The Immense Losses by Fire OF
Late.

AANANNe
We mentioned in yesterdays INTELLI-
eEScER that the repeated losses by fire
during the past Eve months Of this year
amounted to over thirty-eight millions Of
dollars throughout the country. We al
so referred to the fact that the net earn
ings Of the whole nation, after deducting
the expenses Of life, were computed by
some statistiCians at only o per cent oil
the gross earnings, or say SS5oOOooOO.
Out Of this small amount OF net annual
earnings We are, it appears, actually
losing about 30 per cent by fire. The
ratio Of loss this year is considerably
greater than that Of last year, The fire
record for 1874 showed loss during the
year OF about S6O,OOO,OOO, Thus far this
year the loss is at the rate OF $4,000, 900,
Those who think that this Is an exaggeF-
ated estimate Of the immense destruction
Of wealth that is going on by fire have
only to refer back to the telegraphic col
umns Of the ISTELLTGENCER to see what
irightful losses have really occurred
since the first Of January, Leaving out
all the minor losses that are daily oc-
curing, which frequently aggregates
a 100000 in single issue Of our
paper, and taking no account ofthe thous-
and fires that destroy isolated buildings
and which are not reported at all in the
papers, we will briefly glance at some OF
the first.class fires that have been report
ed thus far this year. In the month OF
January there was the partial destruction

THE DEATH PENALTY.
McMann, the Wrestler, Shot for
Throwing on q Match-Affect-
ing Death.Bed Scene.

We learn from Colorado paper
that Robert McMann was shot and
supposed to be MORALLY wounded in
Denver a few days ago. 1t appears
that he matched himself to wrestle
with Dick williams, the Cornish
champion of Denver, and that the
friends of the respective parties
staked large amount of money on
the result. Among those who backed
McMann was A. B. Cleveland, the
keeper of photograph gift lottery
establishment. He put up all the
money he had and could borrow, and
when by a friend warned that the
match was to be thrown :" in favor
of Williams, replied, ut is too late
to stop now, but if he (McMann) is
engaged in such game, he will
never get out Of this country alive,
for l will shoot him." He had
pinned his faith SO entirely to Nc
Mann that he would have wagered
thousands had he possessed the
money. The match came of and
McMann lost. Cleveland mounted a
horse, drew revolver, and started
down the street in search of McMann.
whom he found telling man that
he had ".thrown " the match for the
purpose Of getting bigger bets, etc.
Cleveland approached McMann say
ing, "You threw off on me to-day
and I swore to kill you if you did.
Take that" and fred, the ball enter
ing the victims left breast, penetrat-
ing the lung. The murderer then
rode away at full speed, and, though
holly pursued, had not been captured
at last accounts. McMann is prob
ably dead long before this, as it was
thought he could not live more than
a few hours. He was only 81 years
of age, and on his death-bed con-
fessed that his name was not Nc
Mann, but Ira Jenkins. He was
born in indianapolis, Indiana, where
his father still resides, his mother
having died many years ago. His
parents were both devoted members
of the Methodist Church, and he had
been faithful attendant of the Sun
day School. He ran away from
home, fell under evil influences, and,
to use his own words, "Spent terri
bly, sinful and reckless life" When
he felt that he was dying, he re-
quested his attendant to call in q
Methodist minister, who, with q
number of Christian ladies, soon
arrived at the bedside of the dying
man. He begged them to sing some
of the old Methodist hymns, he
loved so well. His request was
granted, and he added his feeble
voice to theirs. He said that the
face of his dead mother had haunted
him at every step OF his hayward
wanderings, always reckoning him
back to the path of rectitude. What
warning his fate should be to
others!'-OWyhee AUaidnche.

THE SHOOTING OF ONEIL.

From the San Francisco Ledger Of the 23rd]
Yesterday morning at half-psst
seven o'clock David T. O'Neil, ia
miliarly called "Doc," a we'll known
sporting man about town, was shot
dead on the corner of Bush and
Montgomery streets, by William j.
Taylor.
1t appears that O'Neil was walk
ing along Kearney street with An
thony Kraker, the billiardist, and
two men named Perkins and Young,
when It was proposed to go up to
the Laurel Palace and get . bottle of
wine. As they were about to enter
the saloon Taylor came up behind
and said "Helloi" O'Neil turned
and said, "You go off; you are not
wanted here" Taylor, putting his
hand to his breast inside his coat, re-
piled, "I'm not talking to YOU
Here O'Neil, who was leaning on
Perkins arm, lifted his cane aud
struck Taylor across the face or
breast. Taylor Immediately pulled
derringer and fired it at O'Neil's
breast. O'Neil, without a word,
dropped to the pavement on his
face, falling partly in Kraker's arms.
Crother, picking up a piece OF the
cane which was broken, followed
Taylor and struck him over the
head with it. A moment after, he
seized hold of him and held him I'M
til another man came up. They
then took Taylor into Buckeyes sa-
loon until officer Brown came up
and put him under arrest. O'Neil
was picked up dead and taken into
drug store opposite the California
Theater. Taylor, who usually goes
by the name of "Mush Head BILL"
was taken to the City Prison, where
he was Immediately interviewed by
Ledger reporter.
The reporter found Taylor in Tank
No. 4, of the new prison. He was
apparently laboring under consider
able excitement, and was pacing up
and down the cell uneasily. At
first he declined to made any state
ment, but finally began to talk more
freely of the case. 81 did the thing

He and / were not friends. / had
rather not talk about the matter
now. l have no further statement
to Make As the man appeared to
wish to be alone the reporter left
him. He was badly beaten about
the head and his face was blood
stained.

A NARROW EsCAPE.-Thrcc men
who are employed in lowering the
sewer on Main street, above the rail-
road crossing, barely escaped being
buried by falling wall yesterday.
There is a stone wall in front of the
residence of Samuel Owens, short
distance above the railroad, the
foundation Of which is not proper
toned to the weight it has to support,
aud the sewer runs but few feet
AWAY from the wall. While the men
were working there yesterday, one of
them, named Mike Lloyd, noticed
that the wall was beginning to give
way, and, warning his companions of
their danger, they all got out Of the
way as fast as possible, but not an in
slant too soon, for, as the last man
got out of the sewer, about forty feet
of the wall came down, throwing
rock, timbers and dirt completely
across the road. One of our doctors,
accompanied by his wife, was sitting
in his buggy in front ofthe premises,
when the wall fell, and had not his
horse made a leap out of the way, the
buggy and its occupants would inevi-
