Belknap.

The strongest circumstance against
Ex-Secretary Belknap was his resigna-
nation and it may fairly be said that
aside from this. not shadow of case
was made against him. But his pre-
cipitate resignation gave ground for
very strong suspicious of guilt. Yet it
seems that he was induced to this by
the hope that it would end
further proceedings. being led into
this belief by Mr.. Clymer, the Chair
man of the Committee that made the
investigation and that he would thus
prevent the scandal from reaching his
dead wife and his living one. But his sres-
ignation was against him and it was a
suspicious circumstance also, that he
knew money was sent to Mrs. Bower,
both before and after she became his
wife, that in fact he received much of
it for himself. Hence, without any di-
rect evidence, many Senators voted
that he was guilty.
But there was another case. that i'm
which he re-opened and allowed thrice
rejected claim. at the instance of Geo.
II. Pendleton, a leading Democratic
politician, an intimate friend of Mrs.
Belknap, and who received for his fees
in getting the claim. allowed, eighty
or ninety thousand dollars. The
grounds for suspecting corruption here
are much stronger than in the Marsh
Evans matter, vet the same Committee
report complete exoneration of Mr..
Pendleton, which is of course COM
plete exoneration of the Secretary also
Does any one believe such a report
would have been made if Mr.. Pendle-
ton had been as distinguished Repub-
lican as he is Democrat.

TiIden Begging for Time,

n suit was commenced sometime ago
i'm the United States District Court of
New York, against Samuel J. Tilden,
to recover the value of securities alleg-
ed to have been fraudulently abpr0ria-
ted by him as Trustee of the St Louis,
Alton Il Terre Haute Railroad. The
amount involved is one million dollars.
We have already published the leading
points of the bill filed i'm this case.
From the New York Herald of Sunday,
we copy the following:
I'm the suit of Butler against Gov.
Tilden, in which it Is alleged that the
defendant is guilty of mismanagement
of the affairs of the st. Louis, Alton Il
Terre Haute Railroad, Judge Blatch-
ford, of the United States District
Court, has signed an order extending
the time for the filing of defendant's IS
answer TO the October term. The COM
plant was filed several months. ago and
the filing Of the ans,cer has already been
extended q number Of times"
Here is candidate for the Presiden-
cy charged under oath, in the United
States Court, with fraud and embezzle-
ment, and is sued for one million dol
lars, or thereabouts, and what does he
do-answer promptly? Already the fl
ling of an answer has been extended a
number of times, end now it is put off
until the October term. Tilden does
not want that case tried until after the
election. He does not want to file an
answer, even, until after the campaign.
The people will make note of this
Cincinnati Gazette.
