Among these letters was one which the
Bishop had written 10 the girl for her to
copy and send. In her own handwriting,
to Mcconnell, rs coming from her. Il
would seem that the pathetic Bishop had
become Jealous Of his printer rival, and
desired E'auny-io inform him in as deli
cate way as possible that she no longer
desired 10 encourage his attentions. The
girl did rs she was hidden. but immediate.
y thereafter hastened to inform McCon-
nell Of the ruse, and 10 make herself solid
with him. Another letter was one written
to Mcconnell By the Bishop, evidently 10
answer TO 4 solicitation, in which the
Bishop promised 10 use all his influence
to secure the printer 4 good situation,
and manifested lively interest in his
temporal welfare. Mcconnell, although
reputed to be an honest, straightforward
man, was in humble life. This evident
intimscy on the part Of the distinguished
Bishop would alone give cause for sus-
picion that it cloaked something deeper.
Throughout all these letters there are
expressions peculiar TO the Bishop, such
as asweet pleasure and the Ike, which
would establish the identity OF the docu-
ments, it is said, among those familiar
with him, even were they not written In
that peculiar chirography, which Is un-
uistskably bis. Suffice il to say that there
Ia not the least doubt in the minds Of any
member Of the Standing Committee As to
McCoskrey's guilt.
THE BISHOPS DLNIAL.
DETROIT, April l7.-Bishop McCosk-
rey denies the whole story; declares he
resigned on account Of i'll health and old
age, and points to lie Of rectitude tor
seventy-four years as his vindication. Il
Is inimated, though not urged, in ex-
plauation OF the letters, that he was be.
coming deranged on some points, and
that be wrote them while out Of his head.
The matter has been kept profound Sc
cret and leaked out casually. They are
said to be more facts lying back, but the
Detroit papers publish nothing about the
scandal, and no interviews hitherto held
have ELECTED any facts here.
