Ther Beecher-Tilton Scandal.
"x ceclur's Version/of the *
, , " r v
Affair. :
NEW YOKE ; July 22.
GeneralTracey , .counsel for Mi.
Beecher , says Uie investigation now
making by the committee into the
great scandal , will exonerate Mr.
Beecher , and will show that * the
charge of criminality which is now
for the first time made against him ,
is utterly unfounded. Mr. Tilton ,
in speaking with a reporter , denies
that he'authorized the publication
of the statement , and aaid : fit
must have'come'from the1 commit
tee. They will rue the day vhen
they saw fit to give these facts to
the. public. There were only two
copiclrof my statement in existence.
One I gave to the committee , the
other I kept myself. I went before
the committee this afternoon , and
iu a , free and kindly interchange
with them. Lhad.nosuspicion that
the publication of my statemeui
was to be made , either in whole or
inpart.it was a , crime against
human nature to have summoned
me by public proclamation signed
by his-name , by nis authorization of
a cjinmittee of six to divulge
secrets contained iu that statement
No committee in Christendom , .not
though it were of Congress or of all
the churches in the-wprld , or all of
the ecclesiastical councilsof the land
could have , exhorted from me the
facts which I laid before the com
mittee Monday night. "
Tilton being asked where he proposed - -
posed to live , answered : "Nowhere.
Henceforth I have no life. This is
the end of all tragedies. They culminate - .
minate in death. My duty has
been done. "
BEECIIER'S VEBSrox.
'Tftls ' , evening " -several deacons of
Ply mouth" Church , with Mr. Sher
man , Mr. Boss and General Tracy ,
met at Mr. Bcecher's residence , and
after a consultation of about three
.hours , drew up the following state
ment for Mr. . Beecher for publica
tion :
"I do not propose at this time a
detailed examination into the re
markable statement of Theodore
Tilton , made-before the committee ,
and which appeared in print July
21st. I recognize many reasons
which make it of transcendent im-
jiortance'to "myself , the church , and
the cause of public morality , that I
shall give full answers to the charges
against me. , But having requested
the committee to search this matter
to the bottom , it is to them .that I
must look for my vindication. But
I cannot delay for I have fo defend
the reputation of Mrs. Elizabeth B.
Tilton , upon , whose name , in con
nection with mine , her husband has
attempted , to pour shame , one least
deserving such. disgrace I never
knew. From" childhood she has
been under my eye , and since
reaching womanhood she has
had my sincere admiration and
aaection , and I cherish for her
a pure" feeling , such as a gentle
man might honorably oflor to a
Christian woman , and lie might re
ceive and reciprocate without moral
scruples. I regret with indignation
every imputation which reflects
upon hei honor or my own. My re
gard for Mrs. Tilton was well known
to my family , when serious difficul
ties sprang up in her household. It
was to my wife she resorted for
counsel , and both of us acting from
sympathyt and it subsequently ap
peared without my full knowledge ,
gave unadvised counsel which ten.
ded to harm. I have no doubt Mr.
Tilton found his , wife's confidence
and reliance upon mv judgment had
greatly lncreasedwhile his influence
had diminished in consequence of
the marked change In his religious
and social views , which were taking
place during those years Her mind
was greatly exercised lest her chil
dren should be bound by views
which she deemed virtually false
and dangerous. I was suddenly and
rudely aroused to the reality of the
impendlng dangeriy the disclosure '
of the domestic distress by'tickrilss ,
perhaps unto death , of the likeli
hood of a separation and scattering
of the family , every * member of
which I had tenderly loved.
The effect on me by the discovery
ofthe state of Mr. Tilton's feeli p
arid farolly.'surpjissed In sorrow and
excitement anything I had ever ex
perienced In , my life ; that my
presence , influence and council had
brought to a beloved family , sorrow
and alienation , gave , in"my then
state of mind , poignancy to'mysuf-
fering , which 1 hope no other man
may ever feel. Even'to be suspec
ted of having offered , under. the
privileges of a peculiarly sacred re
lation , an indecorum to the wife
and mother , should not but deeply
wound any one who is sensible to
the honor of womanhood. There
were peculiar reasons for alarm in
this case on other grounds , inas
much as I was then subject to cer
tain malignant rumors , and a fla
grant oytbrpak in this family would
bring upon them added injury der
rived from these shameless false
hoods. Believing at the time that
my presence and counsels had tend
ed , however , unconsciously to pro
duce a social catastrophy repre
sented as imminent , I gave expres
sion to my feelings in an interview
with a mutual friend , not in cold
and cautious self defending
words , but eagerly taking the
bame ) " upon jnyself , and pour
ing 0 t my" lipart to "my
friend In the strongest language ,
overburdened with exaggerations of
impassioned sorrow. Had L been as
evil a man as Mr. Tilton now rep
resents , I should Lave , been more
calmer and more prudent "Was my
horror of this evil imputed that filled
with morbid intensity at every
shadow ? It was my friend affectert
'
generously , but he'-osiured me that
supi ) an impression if conveyed to
Tiltoa would soothe the wounded
feelingSf allay the anger find heal
the whole trouble. Sentences'and
fragments , o ! whatlhadbeen'say-
inp , to use them as mediators , and a
full statement of the circumstances
Under which the memorandum was
made-1 sb U gjve to the investigat
ing committee , That th'ese apojo ;
pies , are more than ample to meet
the facts in the case is evident In
asmuch as they were accepted ; that
our intercourse resumed its friend ! i-
nass : that vre met subsequently and
ratified iu writing , and that
he has contrived for four
years , .and until within two
weeks , to live with his wife. It is
conceivable that the original charge
hail been what is now alleged he
would have condemned the offense
not only with the mother of his
children , but with him whom he be
lieved to have wronged them. The
absurdity as well as falsity of this
story is apparent when it is consid
ered that Mr. Tilton alleges that he
carried thisguilty secret of his wife's
infidelity for six months , locked up
in his own breast , and that he then
divulged it to me only , that there
might be reconciliatioiT-with my
selfr and Mrr : Tilton. ; He has
jlnce , ' 'in every form , of lan
guage _ and to the- . , multi
tude of witnesses , orally and in
written statements , and in printed
documents , declared his'.faith" in his
wife's purity afrer the reconciliation' ' ,
Mr/Theodore Tilton with myself , '
were hi consideration of the propri
ety .and honor demanded that fami
ly troubles should l > e kept in that
seclusion which domestic affairs
have a right as a sanctuary , and to
that seclusion it was determined
that it should be"conflneaEvery
line and word of .my , pri 'ate and
confidential letters which have been
published is in harmony witn the
statements which I now make , my
published correspondence on ( this
subject comprises but two elements ,
viz. _ : the "expression my grief ,
that my desire was to shield the *
honor of a pure and innocent wo
man. I do not propose to analyse
and contest this extraordinary paper
of Mr. Tilton's , but there are two
allegations that I cannot permit to
pass without special notice. They
refer only to two incidents which
Mr. Tilton- pretends to have wit
nessed personally. One an alleged
scene" in 'my house while looking
over engravr , r.nd the
other a cfcr liber scene in
his own house. His 'statements
concerning these are absolutely
false , and nothing of * he kind "ever
occurred , nor any semblance to any
such thing. They are now brought' '
to my notice for the first time. To
everv statement connecting me dis
honorably with Mrs. Elizabeth B ,
Tilton or" which in anywise would
Impugn the.honor and purity of this
beloved and Christian , . , woman. , I
give most explicit , comprehensive
and solemn denial.

BROOKLYN , July 22 ,
The .Beecher investigating com
mittee metyesterday , afternoon at
McRacys | residence to cross-exam
ine Mr. Tiltou , They questioned
him two hours the night before1 and
adjourned to meet to-day to hear
what he had to say in.conclusion. . .
All of the committee attended and
Gen. Lacy conducted the examina
tion. On his cross-examination
Mr. Tilton thoroughly broke down.
He. refused , to produce any original
documents that he said were ja his
possession , declined to answer
many leading questions , actually
burst into tears when the commit
tee pressed one point and begged
them to keep the document out of
print and enable hiui to substanti
ate himself better. He made many
speeches , and the committee had
hard work to keep hhii to the point.
The committee adjourned late in the
evening. As they passed into the
street cries of " .News , with Tilton's'
statement in full , " greeted their
ears. The members of the com
mittee afterward had consultations
with Mr. Beecher and Ir. Tilton.
The result is that they will at
once prepare a full and detailed
statement of their o\ni , whijh they
will .furnish . the public. Beecher is
to begin his statement to-day. Mrs. .
Tilton is to prepare a public state
ment , containing a general denial
of all the specific charges made by
her husband , and declaring
that her relations to Mr.'Beechef
were simply jthoso engendered by
bet deep love for hjm.as hpr pastor.
Thejetters to .Mr. Beeoher are to
be produced. In the increasing
cares of fr. Beecher's ministry ,
some .years ago , ne gave instruc
