MOULTON’S STATEMENT. Special Dispateh to The Chicaon Tribune, “GATI" ACCOTDE A TRIFLING FAVOR. BrooxrLyy, Thutsday, Aug. 20.—At Baratoga I rocerved o tolographic dispateh askiug mo to come immediately to Brooklyn. I set off at once, aud to-ay confrontad Mr. Frauk Moulton ot the brenkfasttable, Said he, “Gath, you havo been throwing rockets into Brooklyn. The day I left hero for thoEast to bavesome flshing, I dropped by accidont into tho Eagle ofiico. Thoro I found Kineells, the oditor, sud Hill,. one of TBoccher's connsel. Hill tried to rend to mo your statement. Kinsolla was droadfully angry, and I rathor liko Kinsolla, To Mr. Hill I snid, * You shall not advise mo ag to anything in this caso. You aro not secking the truth, but arguments for your client, You cannot use mo, Mr. Till. I know 3r. Gath. Until I seo him s a gentloman, faco to face, I will have no issue with him. If any orror has got into his dispacth You cannot uso me.'" Said 1, *Mr. Moulton, what is wrong in what I have esid?" Saild Moulton, “You make mo "say that Beccher confossod his adultery: with 3rs, Tilton to mo. I did not say that; it wan eaid by two people before you, but I made nosuch remark.” Said I, **Mr. Moulton, did not Mr. Beecher make that confession to you? " “That is not the poiut,” said Moulton. I broke no confidence with sithor of these gentlo- mon—Tilton nor Boechor, You did hoar that eaid, but yon mixed up my convorsation with that of others. It‘was Judge Morris who told you, to satisfy your own miud, that I bad said to him that the case was clear to me from Beechor's confession, and that made you impute tho confession itself to mo.” Baid T, “ Mr. Moulton, did not Mr, Beecher say to you that tho chiarges ag to Mrs. Tilton and himeelf woro trno?” “That will appoar hereafier,” ha said. *“All that I want todo is toacqmit myself beforo the public of making ono statomont to you on Saturday, and suother beforo tho Church Cowmitteo on AMonday. When I eaw you I was not revolved what to do. After you loft me I made up my mind to givo tho Church Com- mitteo striotly and only tho dooumonts they ssked for. Now, your letter Ioft hero at a timo when my mind was in » stato of dowbt or formativoness. It camo back hero after I bad put in my short statomont, omittivg oll tho grave papers roforring to Mr. Booclier’s caso. I was immediatoly neeniled from Brooklyn to Portland, and although I suppose thirty reportors interviewed mo, I would uot say ono word to the disparagemont of your state- mopt, becanso I know Ishould see yon again.” “Well,” snid T, “what {8 it you want, Mr Moul- ton?” *Only this," ho said; I want your ad- misslon that I epoko without malicions in- tent againat Mr. Deocker, forgotting your BEwRpapor rolation in that moroe cordial one of o friend, Whatever passed in my honso botsreen us was not an intorviow.” Sall L “I apologizo at once, When Icame to seo you, I had groat pressuro bohind me, and you wore g0 high up in the pillory that I conld not imagine you oxpeeted wmore privacy,” I went up to the top of tho houso and wrote o eard, ox- oucrating Ar, Moulton from moking any state- went projudioial to Mr, Bocckor during my intorview of last Baturday, ono weok, InthisI way correct. o Aid make thd outburst I print- ad againse Beochior’s hypocerioy, but what ho said to me was personal nud not professional, THE STATEMENT. 3Ir. Moulton will publish his statomont to- morrow in the Graphic, wlich haa the facilities to ncouratoly lthograph the lotters which ho will adduce. It will baa long statomont, probably requiring s spcoial oxtra to necommodato it At tho samo tlne ho will give mo tho statemont, but 1 prosumo too Jate for your yogular odition, e has boon compolled to print this statemont In Now York booause horo he can suporvise the proofs ond oo that no teohnicsl mistakos aro made. Mrs Moulion's statoment {a made, not to tho Committoo of Plymouth Church, but to the publio. Itis entiroly consistont with all ho hag horotofaro aaid as to his rolations with tho two prinalpats, It s & dignifiod, ninioat atatoly, uare ratlon of Wiy unfortunato conneation with the two men {uvolved. Ho says that ho was soeking on ono side to presorve tho friend of his youth, and on the othor to savo socloty from auch a ovelation as ho know Mr, Beocher’s case wonld mako. Mr, Moulton's statomont to the publio is writton vory much in the stylo of his sccond lotler to AMr. Beecher. It I rorlous, oven sad, but doea not husitate tocharge upon Mr, Boochor . A DNEAOK OF NOUSPHOLD FAITH - 88 well a8 tho highost class of friendiihip, Br, Moulton invelghs against Mr, Bocchor's counaol, not naming any ono porson, but, a8 ia. gonorally undoratood, meaning Bhearman. This Bhear man, it appoars, was a formor partncr of David Dudley Ficla, and cotmeol for Jim Kigk, Dart- lott, snothor of uecoher's counsol, was tho nd- voeate for Tweed. DMoulton ‘holds that Bhonrman gave tho dosporato advico to Boechor which impolled him . to charge Moulton with blackmailing. The first iden Moulton over hnd that his knowlodgo of tho caso would bo usod by Beeohor's | counsol tohis own dlsadvantago was a liitle moro than throo woeks ago. . Mr, Tracy, sitting in a room with Mr. Moulton, said: * Moulton, if you por- sisg in using sl that tostimony, wo will make you a principal in tho ease.* Mr. Boechor enmo as lato aa July b to Mr. Moulton's house, STILL WIESTLING WITI WIM TO BAVR I8 ONAR- AOTER, and on that day put his arm aronnd Mr, Moulton oand sold, in the presouce of o third person- # Heroe is tho noblest friend that God ever raiaed up to holp a man,” Tho namo of this third por- son, who is satd to bo worth soveral million dol- 1ars, will Inovitably como out. Mr. Moulton’s statoment will contaln letters, showing that Theodoro Tilton battled with all tho adroltnéss and onorgy of his naturo to BAVE 118 WIFE PROM EXPOSURE. . Mr. Monlton makes no further delay in ex- plaining Mr. Boochor’s rolation to tho_othor sox. Ho eays that Mr. Beocher for years hias boen ono of tho most lcontious mon in the conntry, licen- tious up to his full opportunity. All the mystery and vagucness lying bobind the affair of Mrs. Tilton nriges from othor amours, which ho daro not ventura to rovive, and hoped were forgotten wholly, Of this kind fs . . A CURTAIN-ECENE IN MB, BOWEN'S PARLOR, Involving & Iady of rising litorary roputation, Thero aro also lotters in Moulton'’s statement which siiow that other iadies, hithorto ont of the rangoof eriticism, have porsonally addressod Mr. Beecher, beseeching him to mako an opon con- Aeselon to his people, a8 ho bad previously, ac- cording to his own account, condoried his offonso with hoavon. Theso lotters woro prompted by Mr, Bocchor's frightful stato of mind at the discovery of his conduct, and were based on tho conviction thnt his faithfal pa- rigbioners would condono avy offenso that ko might bave committed. Thero wes undonbtedly u ttme whon ko dosigned to sponk out, sud como down from the pulplt, but aftor his Inwyors got possession of him lio bent his cucrgios on o etifor poliey. I said to M. Moulton, * Won't this drag along until some- body gots sbot 7" snd ho anid, ** Yes; but whon [ henr you intimato what I have fell mysolf, a cold chill goes throngh me, It will drift along until somebody gots kitlad.” \ A8 TO THE DLACKMAILING CIABOES, thoy aro fairly mot by Mz, Moulton, Tho nego- tintions with Bowen wore wholly out of Mowml- tow'acontrol. Tho money paid the girl to go to Ohio and stop babbling abont tho scandal was at Beecher's own roquest. The 96,000 rocoived by Moulton to support the Golden Age was nover known by Theodoro Tilton to have beon Boccher's” money, was in the light of a gratuity from Moulton himsalf, who did not daro to sponk of it as Beecher's bounty. Mr. AMoulton and Beecher, acting in concort, thought that as Tilton conld not bo bought off to go to Europo, ho could bo kopt out of barm's way by the growth of the Golden Ageundor bis direction. Beechor therofore used Moulton to help that paper on. Moulton gaya that Tilton always grow furious when it way montioned to him that Mr. Beechor might becomo a reserve friond in his publication venture. T asked Mr. Moulton if tho amaur with Mra. Tilton snd not beon of somo use to Mr. Boecher spiritually, Ho said, * Yos, it mode him serl- ous, desperate, and in » measure reformed his 1ife, which had been very bad for severnl yenrs. The mental struggle ho bad gons through has made him 2 more profound and humble man.” Tasked, ** Did you, Mr. Moulton, over suspect that he would play you falso in this matter ?” *Yoa," snid loulton, * I thought so from the timo that e slipped up into Mrs. Tikon's bed- room and OBTAINED THAT RETRACTION ; but I went into this fight in good enrnest, ro- solved to tako both men ne they were. I have had mony an intimato talk with Mr. Boechor oo his scandalous bohavior, and it has ofton appenred to mo that he had mo moral sonso whatever, Ilave hoard' him make - remarks on ontrages committed within tho family cirolo which sbowed that ho Lad Do concevtion of tho common principles of life,” 8aid I, *‘Nr.

From the Brooklyn Arqus, Aug, 18, An Argus roporter this marning suceoadod in obtaining somo suggestions from an_ influontial member of the Plymouth Bocioty, which will bo road with intorest. ‘I'ho roportor had proviously heard the gontleman oxpross bimsolf quite indo- poudently, and asked him if ho considorod the aaao woll nigh finished. Momber—Not by & good deal. Plymouth Chureh is a powerful organization—tho lcading Congragational Church in tho counatry, Ity mumbers are not nnlipmnd of thoir pastor, but they aro dovoted to him. Thoy do nok proposa to Jot him rink. Roporter—~Do I undorstand you to say that they will mnke an organized offort to resort to unfair means to produce an illogitimate resnlt, or that thoy will wish n man to preach tho Gos- pol to thom should be be rgasonably convicted of wrong-doing ? Member—No, I do not mean to say just that. ‘No_better or more sincers men aro to bo found in Drooklyn than belong to Plymouth Church, But thero aro somo mon thoto, as thoro ara in all sociatics, who tako prido in injudicions zesl ‘They will stop at nothing.

Tteporior—What rosult do you anticipate is contomplated by the leaders, as you call them? Member—A dofenso of Mr. Beocher undor any and all eiccumsatances. To mo it seoms sirango that gontlemen would Dhave undortsken au ex- amivation which, from their inability to secure witnesses, thore was no possibility of their making thorough or conclusmve. - Four lawyors ou ono side of a caso could nat holp but proju- ilico tho commmnity moro or lesy, Tho pecn- Jiority of tho cross-oxamivation was suro to | cronto an undortona of discontont, * Teporter—But of tho (nturo? 4 Member—Thoy are fortlo in oxpedionts, As Jong na four weoks aga, T was {uformed that, it nocossnry, tho countor charges of blackmail aud garbled “lotters wore to bo sot up; and now, should Mr. Monlton dispol those charges and produce any latters from Mr, Boocher more damnging to hin, T aw informed thut tho roply {8 alraady formed whic is to ngoin put Tilton on tha dofonsive. Reporter—And what is that, pray ? Momber—1t ia stated that M. Tilton fn an ox- pert with o pen. ‘Lhnt whon ho and Mr. Beechor were in the Jndependent oftice, ho vould imitate Mr, Boecher's writing. We heard that tho apology was & mrgorg' aud I bave hesrd it already whisporod that Mr. Tilton will bo charg- ed with forglug Mr, Beocher’s namo to docu- monts, .

I amnot awaro that ono of tho peouliar suggostions of insunity, forgory, or blackmail, omsnated from thie Committco at all.

Membor—You, thoy aliways help to divida son- timeut, and, if thoy bo_wrong to start with, tho wrong cannot over bo thoroughly ovurconio. Mind you, I do not know but Mr, Tiiton ia tho biad man {hat some havo roprescntod bink o bo.

In his colobrated lotter of apology he aald that * Theodoro would, have boon a bottor manuhis placo than o was.” T ain simply in favor of fair play, If dlr.
