TILTON- -BEECHER.
AN ATTEMPT TO SHIELD REECHER BY
CHANGING THAT ELIZABETH
Is INSANE.
Catherine Beecher Indignant That Wrong
should he Imputed to Henry
Ward-Beecher on Lying,

New YORK, April 1s.-The question whether
or not Mrs. Tifton Is insane is discussed in
connection with the possibility of action by
the Plymouth Church In her case. If she IS
held to be insane, as many of the Plymouth
members consider her to be, no steps will be
taken by the church to drop her name from
the roll.
It Is not now believed that Mrs Titon's
letter to Mrs. Raymond, written month
ago, in which the writer declared that she
was guilty, will be published. Thos. q.
Shearman holds it ct present.
Mrs Catherine E. Beecher has written to
the Tribune expressing her indignation at
the charges against her brother Her brother
at Avon, New York, last night, dwelt at
length on the subject of lying and perjury.
He said: "Lie not for love; lie not for mercy
lie not for humanity; lie not at all. 1t was
not necessary for the Lord Jesus Christ to
lie; he was perfect example,
Mr.. s. V. White who is q leading member
OF the Plymouth Church committee, does not
share in the denunciations of Mrs Tilton as q
crazy woman, but insists that she ought to
be tried on the charges OF lying and slander-
ing her pastor, and II guilty excommunicated.
ence with the committee.
Mr.. Shearman was applied to and nues-
toned in regard to the letter sent to Beecher
Tuesday, In behalf of Mrs. Tilton, informing
him that she had not intended to publish the
confession until he had been given twenty
four hours notice; and, also, concerning one
written by Mrs. Tilton to Mrs. RAYMOND. as
well as those said to have been written bv
Mrs. Morse to Mr.. Beecher after he had re-
fused to accede to her demands for money for
the support OF Mrs. Tilton.

EAsrER-THE PUBLIC MIND NOT
RELIEVED THEREBY,
First Contingent Of Troops From India
for the Mediterranean Intense Inter.
est and Anxiety In England.

LONDON, April 18-The tension of tho Drlb-
lie mind has not been relieved by the adjourn
ment OF Parliament for the Easter holidays.
nor are the people likely to lack sensations
produced by the declarations made at inter-
vals from ministerial benches. In fact the
mystery that surrounds the acts OF the Cab
met during the Parliamentary recess Is likely
TO prove seyerer strain on the British public,
than tho shocks to which they were subjected
by the replies to interrogatories Of the oppo-
sitiOn
Yesterday her Majesty and the Cabinet were
In council at Osborne, celebrating ,rpOn dis
patches received at the Foreign Office since the
adjournment OF Parliament which are re-
garded as OF serious import. This, taken In
connection with the anno,lacement from CAL
cutta, OF the receipt Of OILERS to send the
first contingent Of troops from India to NAL
tn, has produced q feeling f intense anxiety
and interest as to the next movem ent in tho
great International game.
When asked Ii any such demands had been
made, Shearman nnhesitatingly replied in
the affirmative "They were refused" he
said, "and Mrs. Morse then wrote to Beecher
IN regard to the matter" These letters were
not IN his possession, but he presumed that
Beecher had been sensible enough to preserve
them. In regard to the letter written by Mrs.
l1lton to Mrs. Raymond, In which she had
made the same confession OF guilt as that
contained In tho Published statement, Shear
man said that the document was in his pos-
session. but 1t was private letter written to
q lady and be did not think proper to make 1t
public without that ladys consent.

Then Mr.. Newells counsel opened for the

lew moments, also figured as a witness Dur
ing the proceedings there were some lively
uits between the opposing counsel, which had

Mrs. Newell promised her a home for her
SELF and daughter for life and $4,000 if she
would not tell her opponents in the Boardman

she would tell the truth, if called upon, and
that she could not be bribed with the weight

On her cross-examination, Mary was asked
why she left Mrs. Pollards employ in Bos-
W.. She replied, on account of her having a
