ant , even Jn April. J968 , was mem
bers of the Church of "Christ Lat
ter Day Saints and that it was a
doctrine and belief of said church
that members thereof might right
fully enter into plural marriage ; de
fendant admits that on "tho Gth day
of April , 1808 , at Salt Lake Cily , in
accordance with the doctrine and
custom of said church a ceremony
was performed to unite plaintiff and

Jt js not"known whether * j com.
nitteo will exalte any more wit-
lesses. Beecher's friends rest on
he ground that Moulton is unwor-
hy of bplJpf { q his statement , and
t Is stated that witnesses can be
sailed to testify that he made state-
nents wholly at variance witn
hose in his narrative of the case ,
[ t is expected , however , the com-
nittee will close the investigation in
ime to present their report at the
Friday evening meeting.
No arrangement was made during
he session last evening to invite
tlpulton to come before the com-
nittee , nor is it likely he will be
equested to come again.
A letter from Frank B. Carpenter
las been received by one of his
riends in Now York. He speaks
ndignantly of Beecher's accusa-
lous against him , and characterizes
he names against his statement as
itterly false.
bince Tilton's statement waspub-
ished , there are no new develop-
nents in connection with Tilton's
iult against Beecher.
Tilton's counsel sav " he will press
he libel suit against"the New Ybrk
nornlng papers.
It ia stated that Mr. James Eed-
> ath , manager of Boston lecture ly-
icum bureau , has concluded an en
gagement with Beecber to deliver
1 series of lectures during October
ind November , These will be so
panged that he can return toBrook-
yn every Friday and on Sundays.
