An 'Explanation and an Apology
A gentleman walked into our
sauctum yesterday"and laying
on our dsk a card having on } t the
words "John Baerman , Prof , of
Foreign Laguages , " he announced
that he was the Mormon preacher
who was referred to In an article in
last Monday's BEE. He wanted an
apology ; pr cprreetjon mofjp , as he
was nottbat kind of A man.
We astced him if hebftd evcrbeen
in London , Canada ; if he had ever
been married there ; if he had been
married a second time In New/Ybrk- ;
and if he was contemplating
a'third marriage in Omaha ; to all
of whlcli bfc replied in the negative.
We told him we could not see how
the artlcls in question referred to
him then , as it did not oven men
tion his name. Well , he ojcplajued ,
that he was certain It did refer to
him , foij he had given a needy man
the sum of $5.C5 , on Sunday , the
identical amount mentioned in the
BEE. We cannot comprehend how
the item can be twisted so as to be
made to refer to Mr. Baerman , al
though he says he is the individual

KETCHAH'S PARDON.
The Action Taken in the District
Court thii Horning.
Yesterday morning in the District
Court , Judge Lake presiding , the
defendant in the case of-the State
vs. Charles Ketcham came in , and
filed a plea of pardon in bar of sen
tence. He was represented , in the
absence of Mr. Doane , by Gen.
Manderson , who stated that the
pardon had been properly issued by
the Governor , and that the law had
been fully complied with.
Mr. A. J. Poppleton , who had
prosecuted the case , opposed the motion -
tion to sustain the pardon , as it was
not shown that the law , requiring
two week's publication of the notice
for application of the pardon , had
been compiled with. He thought
this necessary. He had aslcd over
fifty persons if they had seen the
notice , and but a very few had dis
covered it In making a diligent
search for it , he had finally found it ,
"In the most obscure corner of the
most obscure paper In. Omaha ,
namely , the Sepublican. * ' .
Gen. Manderson did not know
hardly how to reply ( to this , as il
was too true in regard to the Hepub-
Kcan. He was sure , however , thai
the.law had been complied with , as
the Governor would never have
granted the pardon until he had
satisfied himself that all was correct.
The Court sustained the plea ol
pardon , and the folio whig entry was
made upon the record by the Clerk :
And now comes the said defend
ant , Charles Ketcnam , and pro
duces , in open court , the full and un
conditional pardon of the. Governoi
of the State of Nebraska ; for th (
crime of embezzlement , of which h
was , at the June term , 1874
of the court , convicted , and pleadi
said pardon in bar of the sentenc <
of the Court ; whereupon , the Cour
finding that said pardon is full am
unconditional , and in all respect ;
regular , the said plea in bar is , ty
the Court , sustained ; the said Chas
etcbana is discharged from cus
tody , a'nd. thp retfea upon hii
recognizance released frojn liability
thereon.

The market for oats at the pro
duce exchange is still very unset
tled but lower. Prices this morning
are nominal at 80 bid and 90 asked
for western mixed ; the supply is
light and business limited in consequence
quence of the meagre-supply. Prin
cipal holders decliuei'selling. The
stock in New York .is reduced tp
40,000 bushels and * the quantity1
afloat is very light. " The total
amount of Reasoned oats now in the
whole country is supposed not to
exceed 10,000 Jbushek. Last year
the amount on liuiid at the same
fmie was'over'4,000,000 bushels , aud
the vearprevious , 1872 it was 6,000-
000. The supply.a , week was 580,000
bushels. The quantity estimated to
be here now is not more than a
day's local consumption. No such
scarcity was * ever known.before.
' " 'NEW YORK , August4.
' The1 Herald's Long Branch letter
states from-an. authoritative source
that President Grant , expects and
desires the nomination for the third
term , but'riot T\s the candidate of the
Republican party , but as the candi
date of the anti-Republican and an
ti-Administration forces , upon' the
LiberalTtepublican'ahd Democratic
platform of 1872. A leading west
ern Liberal had a conference with
the President a few days ego , when
the above arrangements were made.
There is but one opinion as tothe ;
result of the investigating"commit
tee's labors , aud that is that a ver
dict .will bean favor of Bcecher.
The. public , however , will hardly
rest'satisfied'with such an acquittal ,
and the Plymouth pastor will re
quire the vindication of a'public
court of law before being reinstated
in public favor and esteem.
The Herald , to-day , gives the
probable explanation of Moiilton's
unwillingness to testify , as follows :
Moulton is a member of the firm
of Woodruff & Robinson , which
sometime back was involved in
some little difficulty .vith the U. S.
internal revenue bureau. Moul
ton is said to have been considers !
to' Jayue as the offending party ,
alid ay'explanation peeame ne'ges ;
sary. ' Moultou applied to'Beecher
a"rid thelatfer went to Washington ,
where , fifter seine exercise of influ
ence , he succeeded iu arranging
matters to the satisfaction of the
authorities. In view of .these alleged
circumstances , the Herald thinks
Beecher's invitation to Moulton to
appear and testy } } may b > ve been
extended and received solely in a
Pickwickian seneo.
Beecher's counsel is confident
that Beecher will not prosecute Til-
ton however the matter ends.
Beecher's spirit is too forgiving for
that ; he thinks bis enemjes'will ba
punished enough by the result ot
the investigation and report of the
committee , His friends ay even if
Beecher's consent was given r to
prosecute Tiltnn , any jury wo-jld
acquit Tilton in consequence of in-
sonfty.
