Mr. Ilyan Is a KtnlliJ man wlm has raided In Nw York for o number of yearsi, and n member of a family of promlnewcand wealth, who arc pluneera of AtlanLi. He hun known by little lrl from childhood. Tho billiard story Is a mere canard Mr. Itynn was au acquaintance tt Mr. Moore before my rlaOKluer bad met him, and was a wltntsa Uj the niar rlaKeln 8U Mattliew church. My daUKhtor went to New York with ao elderly lady frlead who promlsod to be a mother to her.

Tho report says an entry In Mrs. Monro's tllnry ayo evidence of her Intimacy with Kills, tho Cuban. As I rcmaked In the be KlnnltiK, I hold you blamcloss because thorep'irt was directed by Mclntyre In this awcrtlon.

Payne's pur jiojc In kceplnir a diary wns sim ply to rncull dutos and namos of per tons whom tho'd moot abroad and In Now York, wishing to bring mo ex act news of her journoylngs.

And woro It not a lamentable fact that llccordor Ooir hooiih rulod by the District Atty's olllcc, It would riot hayo bean ullowcil. The prosecutor, Mclntyre, had Ills purpose In placing an ovll construction on cvory act of Mrs, Moore's life, .lust rouiembcrho Is paid to convict. And nlso, that "ovll Is to whom oyll thinks" Doubt less ho Ims had a career. Mrs. MooroV diary Is an Innocent mcmumri dual which anyone iniy exuinlno Tliu report furlhor stated that "ClolT took Into coiiHldcMtlou Miniro's char acter and criminal record, tho fart that his profuHHlnn was that of n gambler, a ottid shnrp, bunco Ktonrer. bigamist mid geimral nllround scoicid roltaiid doubtless too tho manner In wliloli ho used his young wlfo, the weak nnd fasolnating Faynoiitnihuii, In tho aconmpluhmout of his bane and criminal deMlgiiH." Now, I would iihk, who knows Moore's criminal record? Thoio was no ovldunro IntrtHlueed to sho wit.

J am riot acquainted tvii.h Mr. Moore but I know ranc,. Strahan quite well, andean say of a truUi, she would rather give thun allko-ls strictly honotC This Is clearly the opinion of any who know her, either whlUi or colored. It Is a source of much comfort to me Ui behold my tahle cowed with toU moolals to her honesty; 'tis only strangers wlw would dnubt for a moment. The report said; "If she gains not Immunity from the punishment as predict! she probably will owe much to the Influence of the N. Y. press, which Is understood will get In and help her cao." Truly my friend, tho glove Is on the other lwnd. The K. Y. press owes that defenselnss ohlld more than it can aver rooay for iw nooious niiuuou towards her. Knowing the racts as I do. I pre sume the mistake Mr. Moore made was liunot shooting Mahon (though I am glad he did not) dead as Hector, whon he found him In his appart ments. Our people cry, Morcy! Hu manity! but when the cnlroatlos are hoard, the merciful arc In danger of wearing a- convicts garb. Thoy may send Mrs. Moore to Sing Sing; Mclntyre and tho press have done their best, but If they do-riiiicmber It will .bo because she, like u N. Y. Mayor, who was promoted to tho presidents -"Told tho Truth " Twice her liberty was ollcrcd her but she would rather tako her chances on the convicts uarb than go free under the horrid shadow of a He. Her utt'ys say they have rarely seen such bravery exhibited, If Recorder (loir took Moore's charuclor Into consideration without It bolng attnoked, In court, why did lie especially charge to Jury In Mrs. Moore's case that they wero not to take Million's charactor or his In timacy with Fayne .Strnhun Moore Into consideration. Mr. Hill said it was the moat Infamous charge that he had hoard delivered. S. U.S. Aculnaldo Still UoaHlii0. II) Aicla(ril I'l-m (n Hi,. .Iniiriiiil. London. Jan. 1.1.
