Iteuq'niination to Congress. " WasnrxorON, April 16.4119. foreman, Charles R. Cole, of the circuit court jury at 4:45 o’clock Saturday afternoon announced a verdict. for the plaintiff, Madeline Pol- lard, for $15,000- damages from Congress man “7. C. P. Breckinridge for breaking his contract to marry her, thus ending the long ,nnd exciting VBreckinridge-Pollard breach" of promise trial. The jury was nearly'unanimous in its conclusion upon the merits or the case, only one juror lean- ing toward the defendant. Ninety min- utes were consumed in coming to an agree- ment hpon the amount of damages to be awarded, and 15 ballots were taken in-this time, each ballot bringing the jurors near- er an amount to which all would agree. Sensations had fairly crowded into the last day of the trial. There had been somé of the most dramatic scenes which ever stirred the dingy little courtroom, reeking as it was with the memories of celebrated cases. There was an approach to a. person. 31 collision between Judge Jere ”Wilson and Attorney Charles H. Stoll during the _ magnificent closing argument of the \Vash- Stoll was cognizant of forged evidence (the \Vessie Brown letter) introduced by the . This was followed by talk of a f defense. du'el, and Judge Bradley, in his charge to a lawyer is seldom spoken of in court, “hen the case was given to the jury. the 1 12 men filed out of the courtroom, follow- ed by nearly all of the spectators and the parties to the case. The gray haired de- fendant retired to the marshal’s office across the hall, where he was surrounded by his son and all his counselors except - his-law partner, Mr. Shelby, who had re. turned to Kentucky two days ago. Attorneys Calderon Carlisle and Jere lVilson Walked across the street to the office of the former in the third story of a tall, brick building, where Madeline Pol- laid and her faithful companion, Mrs. El-_ “3’ were spending the Tiifllflalt the :men of the jury, step into the marshal’s verdict. In the Juryroom. _ ‘Mcantime two uniformed bailiffs sat out- side the door of the upper'room in which the '12 men, upon whom rested the respon- sibilities of the ease, Were confined. Their first business was the election of afore- man. The choice naturally fell upon the oldest of their number. Mr. Charles R. Odie, ”an insurance agent well known to “fashingtonians. a man not for past mid- dle age, with red cheeks and ayellow mus- tache, who had sat in the front row of the jury ‘box leaning forward to listen with marked and unflagging attention to every step of the proceedings. . The first ballot taken was upon the mer- its of the case, leaving out of consideration the question of the amount of damages. It resulted in 11 votes for a ,verdict in favor of the plaintiff and one vote for the defend- ant. Thereupon the dissenting gentleman was figuratively cornered by his col- leagues and'for some time was argued at. In speaking of’this discussion afterward, Foreman Cole said that the jurymen dis- played fully as great a familiarity .with the points of the testimony as had been evidenced by the lawyers in their argu- ments. They laid the case fully before the obduratejuryman, called for the grounds on which be based his belief and were finally able to overcome him by sheer force of logic. The next question to be settled was the figure at which the damages should be rated, and upon this matter there was the widest possible difference. Two or three jurors thought the full amount sued for, $50,000, should be awarded. Foreman Cole said that a verdict for $31 would vindicate Miss Pollard and punish Mr. Breckinridge sufficiently, and he thought it was unneces- sary to impose any great financial punish- ment upon him. Fixing the Damages. Discussion of this matter followed until the usual course was adopted,.each' juror writing the amount he considered just upon a. slip of paper and a balance being struck. The amounts ranged from $1 "to 550,000, and $15,000 was the average. Fif— teen ballots were taken before the final re- business and sealing the verdict the jurors agreed not to divulge the ' secrets of the juryroom. Consequently they were not at liberty to reveal the identity of Colonel Breckinridge’s solitary. friend.

Following, him came his son, Desha Breckinridge} Colonel Phil Thompson and AttorneylV, A. McKenzie, the partnerof Colonel-Enoch Totten, originally the counsel in the case, who has played a silent part in the suit. Colonel Breckinridge took his usual chair, with Colonel Thompson and his son at either side. - “Gentlemen of: the jury will answer to names as called. ' “Charles R. Cole,” shouted the clerk of the court in the usual incoherent jumble. Then he noticed that no one was there to represent the plaintiii; and called the fact. to the attention of j e‘: judge, who .imme- diately dispatchéd a bailiff across the street. Then followed five minutes of op- pressive silence. Hardly a whisper was to be heard. Then entered‘the aristocratic Mr. Calderon (.‘arlisle’, puffing from the violence of his journey, fall hat and silver headed cane in. build. That cane, it was observed, had a head with which an. ox might be felled. Mr. Carlisle’ came alone and sank into a. seat. Then Judge Bradley stretched out his. hand warningly to say, “When this verdict is announced, for I am informed that a verdict has been agreed upon. there must. be no demonstration either of. approval or disapproval.” _ The clerk called the roll of the jury and , then grumbled loudly an interrogatory,' which, being interpreted, was, “Gentlemen -of the jury, have you agreed upon your verdict?” The Verdict Announced.» “\Ve have,” responded Foreman Cole, rising and thrusting out his cherished blue envelope. “\Ve find for the plaintiff.” , An inarticulate murmur started, which the bailiffs quickly hushed. It was merely a mixture of vocal sound and crowding which expressed no particular sentiment except surprise. Finally the judge how asked, “For . -, much?” ington lawyer, in which he intimated that 1 “Fifteen thousand dollars,” announced the foreman of the jury. Another rustle like the. first arose, but , ‘ - present in my office when her father an- was speedily. quenched. One man near a window shout-ed to the crowd outside, , “Fifteen thousand dollars for the plain- tbe jury, scored Colonel Phil Thompson a:- 11 tiff,” but he was not reprimanded. Colonel Breckinridge rose slowly to his feet, and all eyes were turned upon him. ' All those who saw his face say it was near- ly white as his,beard, but his voice was clear as usual when he spoke in a hesitat- ing way, saying. "I do not know the prao tice of this court, but I wish to give the usual notice of a motion for a new trial." He dropped into a seat beside his son hard: ly less pale than himself. J udgc Bradley thanked the jurors in the stereotyped formula for their attention and services in the case. The clerk yelled like the wnrwhoop of an Indian above the rush ofthc crowd for the door, “Gentle. office and draw your fees.” Nobody waited to hear the formal ad- journment. The jurors filed out. Colonel Brecki’nridge pulled his slouch hat ovei his eyes and followed after them, with his son in his wake, elbowingr their way across the hall to the marshal’s office. The jurors were just ahead of him in the outer office and he pressed through them to the green baise door before the private oflicc. There was no handshaking in congratulation of sympathy between the colonel and any one else. Miss Pollard Hears It. \Vhere was Madeline Pollard? Thai question was heard on every hand. Made- line Pollard had been peering across from a window in the tall building opposite, pressing her face against a pane m'ost oi the afternoon. She was exceedingly nerv. ous, but not at all 'hysterical, hcrcounscl said afterward. \Vhen the messenger broke into the room with the news of the verdict, she burst into tears. womanlike, exclaiming, “()h, isn’t it good! Isn’t it g00( !" Attorney Carlislc's outer office was soon filled with newspaper men, but the plaintiff‘s rem‘cscnfafivcs said that she did not care to :z'y anything, as she was in a mgst nervous state. _ “Moreover," Mr. \Vilsou added, “it is. her desire to efi‘ace herself from the public eye entirely after this trial. Naturally we are greatly pleased with the verdict. That is about all we can say, I guess. Our cause was just, and our hearts were in it.” Aft- erward, in conversation, he remarked that his sympathies were all with the present wife of Colonel Breckinridgc. and said that he and Mr. Carlisle had avoided references to her in the case asmuch as possible. Judge \Vilson and Mr. Carlisle stepped into the inner oflice to shake hands with their client before they left. and as she was seen through the open door she was smiling, as she. had not been seen to smile since the beginning of the trial. She shook hands with her attorneys and thanked them in profuse terms for their work. The sidewalk in front of the ofllce was block ; aded with friends of the attorneys waiting to congratulate them as they stepped in suit was reached, ‘ After finishing their 1 the” carriage. had sent a messenger to inquire if there ; was any probability that a verdict would be agreed upon soon. Receiving the reply that the jury was about to conclude its deliberations, he entered the courtroom. His entrance of course was the signal for a gathering of the crowd. They flocked into the courtroom from the sidewalks, steps and corridors—lawyers, congressmen and friends of the defendant, but not a woman’s face was seen in the court. The room fairly bristled' with blue coated bailiffs, for rumors of impending trouble had floated about all day, and there were geveral detectives in the crowd, The hands of the clock stood at 3.5 min: utes after 4 when the jurors in single file entered at the little door to the right of the judge's desk. Every one saw at once that they'brought a verdict and had not returned for instructions, as is often a disappointing habit ‘with juries, because they ’carried their coats and hats. Mr. Cole took .the chair nearest the judge, clasping tightly in both hands as though he feared it might escape from him a for- midable looking blue envelope. The Jury Roll Call. . AlniOst at the moment; the jurors enter- ed from the outer (lam-at the judge’s left was thins}; the silvery head of Congress Miss Pollard Secluded} Both Mr. \Vilson and Mr. Carlisle are immensely popular in \Vashington and have the highest position in the profession. Their identification with the case from the first has given it a standing which other- wise it might not have secured. People said that they must have been impressed with the justice of the case or they would not have taken it. since they were beyond the temptation of pecuniary advancement from it, and their practice is not of a char- acter to be advanced by their identification with such a suit. Many women were in, the great crowd which hung around outside the court. house, waiting curiously for a. sight of the woman in the case. Miss Pollard elected to remain in seclusion until her admirers had dispersed, but they were repaid for . their pains, or seemed to think they were, , by the appearance of the defendant. The , jurors as they came out to the street were congratulated warmly by man y'strangers. . Colonel Breckinridge passed by them,walk- . ing with M ajor Butter-worth, who had ar- rived too late to hear the verdict, and, Mr. Stoll. “I do not care to say anything,” Colonel Breckinridge replied to a question as to Whether he cared to comment on the ver- dict. VVith bowed head and rather deject- ed he walked through the park around the courthouse and down town to Major But‘ terworfh’s ofl‘nn in the heart of the city. : ’l‘here'the m-went Mrs. Bl‘cckinridg‘e Was wailing for (hour. t A Loyal \Vife. - ' A‘Th'fere had been a story in local papers of. , a. rumored estrangement between the 0019;, “ nel and hiswifeon account of his suit, and as if to disprove the rumor_Mrs. Breckin- ridge and another lady said to be the. edit;- nel’s daughter had driven to the court- house during the noon recess‘andhad held a. conversation with him, in front of the building. From Major Butterworth’s of- flce Colonel and'_}lz‘-_§. Breckinridgc drove in, this open carriage about 5:30 down F street, the most crowded street of the city, where they were seen by many curious eyes, and thence down the fashionable ave— nues to their residence: They chatted to all' appearances as light heartcdly as‘ though nothing unusual had occurred. Colonel Breckiuridge and his attorneys have not yet fully determined their future course, but probably will do so in a few days. , Colonel Shelby is expected to return from Kentucky in the early part of the reek, nude. conference of the counsel will then be held. The case will be taken to the court :of appeals of the district,,from which the only appeal is the United States supreme court. Major Butterworth, who conducted the defense, attributes the verdict for dam— ages to, general lack of knowledge of what heterms the “true inwardness of the case.” He said: “The result is of course a disap- pointment, and I am apprehensive that the strong outside opinion has had some— thing to do with the verdict. The jury would be something more or less than human if they had not been influenced to some extent by the public opinion mani- fest in the atmosphere about them. \Vill Fight to 3 Finish. “I am greatly surprised to see published statements that strained feeling exists be- Mrs. Breckinridge and her husband. The stories have not the slightest foundation. Mrs. Breckinridge through all this trying controversy has been unswerving in her faith in her husband and stood by him most loyally and devotedly. The unsel- fish devotion and filial love of his daughter is certainly most praiscworthy. She was constantly at her father’s side and was nounced the verdict. Naturally she showed some feeling, but her devotion has not wavered in the least. What our future course will be has not all been fixed. The case, however, will be fought to a finish along every available and proper line.” Feeling is rather bitter between some oi the attorneys on opposite sides of the case, which has been intensified by numerous occurrences, and reached its climax in the passage between Mr. \Vilsou and Mr. Stoll in court when the latter thought that his opponent had accused him of complicity in the forgery of a letter. The scene was a most dramatic one when Mr. \Vilson, who, although a tall man, weighs hardly 100 pounds and most of that bruins, as some one remarked, confronted his oppo- nent. It is said that he would not have been as pointed as he was but for the course taken by Mr. $1011 in his examination of the sis- ters at the Norwood convent when, ac- cording to M r. \l'ilson, he endeavored to show that the Christ mas card had beet placed in i he volu me of \‘i'ushingtou Irvin g by Attorney C‘irlislc Din-kitorney Johnson People are talking of the wonderful nerve be displayed in continuing his argument without the slightest perceptible trace of nervousness through the most exciting in terruptions. Madeline Pollard. \Vhat will be the future of Madeline is a question quite generally asked. So far as society is concerned no one questions the assertion of Major Bu ttcrworth that in pulling down the temple of his fame over the cars of Colonel Breckinridgc she played the part of Samson, burying herself in the ruins. She has said that she intends. to devote the remainder of her life to re- ligious work. particularly to the assistance ' of outcast woman. thethcr she will have moral courage sufficient to resist the tempting offers of large financial gain from theatrical man- agers who want her to appear on the stage or publishers who are holding out induce mcnts forthc story of her life is a subject of discussion. That she will not be financially bottcrcd by the result of her case is probable be- cause it is well understood and has been said in trial that Colonel Breckinridgchas no property. He has lived up to his income for years, and although his wii'elias money it does not seem likely that she will carc- to xpend it to satisfy this judgment. BRECKI NRIDGE INTERVIE‘VED. He \Vill Fight, In the Courts and In His Congressional District. “'ASIIIXGTOX, April 10. — Your corre- spondent had an interview with Colonel Breckinridge at his home after the flush of excitement attendant on the close of the trial had had time to pass away, and the colonel had a little time to think about the case. ' M r. Breckinridgc said: I don‘t intend to let the litigation end here. Immediately-after the verdict was rendered 1 gave notice that I would move for anew trial. If the motion is denied, as I apprehend it will be,,I will proscculc an app-cal and exhaust every legal remedy nil’ordod me by law. I confess the verdict was unexpected. I appreciated the power of the press in the creation of a public demand for a verdict. against me. which 1111- consciously the jury fell and were influenced by. I also appreciate certain periured testimony which had been skillfully fabricated and which we wore not prepared to meet and could not expose in the time allowed by the trial. I have no fear of the ultimate result. The plaintiff and I will each live our respective lives. The public will become more familiar with the facts, and the final judgment I will not fear to meet. As to the speech of Judge “'ilson, I think I can characterize it as an utterly unconscious and dishonorable argument. He took advan- tage of the privilege of having the last utter- ance to make false statements and other slan- derous charges. The verdict has not weakened the ties that bind my wife and children to me nor impaired the friendship felt for me by my friends. 1 have announced to my friends that I would continue to be a candidate for congress, which I declared myself immediately after the filing of the suit, until the nomination is settled by the regular prescribed mode. The suit and verdict do not end my career. There will be open to me avenues of profitable employment. Bfiv renomination will simply mean a declaration of the people among whom I have livednll my life and who know me bet- ter than other people do that they are willing to trust me as their representative in congress.
