WASHINGTON, April 12.-—Colonel Thomp
eon resumed his speech against Madeline
Pollard when the circuit court met today.

’ He first commented on the improbability‘
of the formal proposal of marriagel’from
' Colonel Breckinridgeto the plaintifi in the

fall of 1892 in the light of her claim that
he had previously promised to marry her
if his wife should die. ’

“It was the act of awoman who :felt

that if she could not marry him she could
'disgrace him,” was the lawyer’s _charac
terization of the suit. In his vehement
way the colonel pictured whatmust lia'vt
been the agony of “the congressman with
the plaintlfl following" him, around gand
compelling him to tell Mrs._ Blackburn
that they were to be married; " ‘ - - 3-
“Shc was a walking arsénal,” said the
lawyer again. “Talk about Kentucky'c'olo-
nels and turning up coattails here in this

courthouseto see if there were‘pistOls. Did"
you see the look [on that woman’sffac'e‘u

when she came into this courthouse? :Why,
I was afraid to sit beside the colonel‘for
fear of stray bullets. ” . :7

Colonel Thompson closed with an appeal
to the jury to return a verdict accOrdin‘g
to the law and the testimony. ',

Buttorworth'a Speech. " " _-

Major Ben Buttcrworth, whose ‘3de
manner is in- great contrast to that’of his
colleague, _began his remarks bybx’pro‘ss-
ing gratification-that this pestilence must,
soon be brought to an end. But the vile
contagion would not disappear from the
hearthstones of the country for, a bun-
dred years. Upon those who were to
blame for bringing it before the public the
burden must rest. He-had'been informed
that the Mexican newspapers, had paid

825,00) for obtaining the news of the trial,“ .
and that the European .papersi‘ so far as;

possiblchad disinfected it. ..

There was'no wrong; to be righted by
this suit. Even to ..safv's the lives of the
two nominal principals thc‘ incorruptible
judiciary of the ,country could not af-
ford to deal withsuch. a mass of conta.

gion, nor should the hearthstones of the

country have been invaded by'it for any
purpose. He knew._. Miss Pollard, and of
her he would ngt use harsh language, but
he wbuld that. seine one had whispered into
her ear the words of the’Master, “Go, and

sin no more}? She seemed never tophave.

heard those words. =' .
Some people had, been solicitous for fear
his (Butterwortli’s‘) friendship had been
misplaced. ‘Héhfid known the defendant
as statesmaagsoldier, father, husband and
friend, “a SEES“ may speed it on the light
nings that t .
a friend in the days of , his prosperity he

will not tu’rnhis back upon in adversity.” .

This statement was followed. by an out
break of ”applause from spectators.

J udge gliradley .leaned forward and
rapped his desk. “Now you may clear the
courtroom,f"he said to the bailiffs. “We
have had" 'oughof outrages in this court
room.” .5 . _ »_--_-:. .

j ' (Spectators Turned Out.

No one stirred, and then Judge Bradley
said, “Everyone who is not a member of
the bar will "leave the‘courtroom,”

Several men got up and started out, -
when-lone elderly spectator inquired;_

“Does-,that apply to members of the bar

cash and selling for cash. That’s
how we do it.
