THE PAIRBANK TRIAL 1%
Lawyer Allen's Letters to Mrs. Carter
Ruled Out of the Evidence. .
NEW YORK, June 16.—-The third week
of the trial of David Belasco’s suit against
N. K. Fairbank to recover $65,000 for
making a star actress out of Mrs. Leslie
Carter opened this morning in trial term,
part five of the supreme court, before J us-
tice Giegerich and a juoy, with Charles
L A. Allen, one of Mr. Fairbank’s law-
yers, in the witness chair.
Ex-Judge Dittenhcefer, counsel for Mr.
Belasco, had Mr.,Allen identify several
letters written by him to Mrs. Carter in
the fall of 1894, in which he addressed her
as “My dear Mrs. Carter.”
Horace E. Deming, on behalf of Mr.
Fairbank, objected to the letters being
read as evidence, and Justice Giegerich
sustained the objection on the ground
that the letters were communications be-
tween counsel and client on subjects not
relating to the action on trial.
Judge Dittenhoefer exclaimed: ‘.‘We
consider these letters important. It has
been charged that Mrs. Carter and Bolas-
co were conspiring against Mr. Fairbank,
and we want to show by his letters that
Mr. Allen,‘one of Fairbank’s lawyers, was
addressing one of these so called conspira-
tors ln the most friendly terms as late
as May, 1895.”
”Have you not received individually
from Mrs. Carter as much as $15,000 as
fee in her divorce suit?”
Justice Glegerich sustained an objection
interposed by Lawyer Deming. '
Judge Dittenhoefer then cross examined
Mr. Allen at considerable length as to
what replies he had made to statements
contained in Mrs. Carter’s letter of June
3, 1890.
“In this letter Mrs. Carter wrote that
Belasco was willing to wait until after the
production of ‘The Ugly Duckling’ for his
remuneration, and that Belasco had done
all he had far her on Falrbank’s assurance
that he would see her through. Did you
reply to that part of the letter?” asked
Judge Dittenhoefer.
“I showed it to Mr. Falrhank, but
made no answar to it.”
“Why did you not write to Mrs. Carter
and say that she was wrong in saying
Fair-bank was responsible, and that Fair-
bank had never made himself responsi~
ble?!)
“1 turned the letter over to Mr. Fair-
bank. It was none of my affair.”
“Did Mr. Price, the manager of ‘The
Ugly Duckling’ company, say that the
company was backed by Mr. Fairbank?”
“He said that he would look to Mr.
Fair-bank for his pay, as he was back of
the enterprise, and I said I didn’t under-
stand it that way. ”
A number of telegrams from Belasco
and Mrs. Carter to Allen asking that
money be sent to them while “The Ugly
Duckling” company was on a tour in 1890
were put in evidence by Mr. Deming.
The Countess Russell Suit.

SQUABBLES OVER LETTERS.
Three \Vritten by the Defendant Ruled
Out and a. Fourth Admitted—A Large .
Crowd of Morbid Women Who
Wished to Hear Them Read.
NEW YORK, June 16.-‘-The first day of
the seventh week of the trial of Mary
Alice Fleming for the murder of her moth-
er, Mrs. Bliss, found the prosecution’s evi-
dence nearly all in.
Many of the letters written by the pris-
oner to her lover, Wilckes, are of such a
vile character that they could not be pub-
lishcd.
This fact has been mentioned in every
neWSpaper in this city, but nevertheless
the earliest arrivals today at the court-
house were vmmen—flashy, overdressed
women, women ‘with bold, brazen faces
and confident mannish airs.
They were there to hear letters read, and
they got the best seats» they could find.
They filled the missionary benches. They
were everywhere. They were not only visi-
ble to the eye, but they were perceptible
otherwise, for they had _on_ [their persons
various and sundry andldivers perfumes.
Mrs. Fleming, looking singularly de-
mure and ladylike in her black dress in
contrast to the multicolored gowns of the
women spectators, was ahead of -the re-
corder in getting into the courtroom.
She greeted Messrs. Brooke, Shaw and
Nathan of her counsel with a smile and
seemed in capital spirits. Little Miss Flor-
ence Bliss, the defendant’s halfsister, had
a lovely color, and there was a. sparkle in
her pretty brown eyes. She was a little
excited, for she is to be a witness for Mrs.
Fleming. ’
The recorder was closely followed by
Dr. O’Sullivan and Assistant District At-
torney Oliver, who has been called into
the case.
A Host of Letters.
There were about 60 letters which Mr.
McIntyre wished to put in evidence, he
said. It depended entirely upon how the
defense acted how quickly he could put
these letters in. ' ~
There was a delay in beginning the trial
as Recorder God was busy talking to a
number of lawyers who clustered about his
desk in reference to another case.
During the wait Mrs. Fleming, Miss
Blise and the lawyers for the defense
laughed and chatted and seemed to be hav-
ing lots of fun together.
Mr. McIntyre asked Recorder Goff if it
Would not be a good thing to draw the at-
tention of the women in court to the fact
that the evidence would be of a filthy
character. '
“No, ” said the recorder, “they know
what is coming. If they want to listen to
it, let them.”
So the overdressed, vulgar creatures re-
mained in the courtroom.
Dayna S. Carvalho, the chirographical
expert. was the first witness called to the
stand. He identified the writing in one of
Mrs. Fleming’s letters as being hers. Mr.
Brooke objected to the latter being put in
evidence and read in court.
The lawyers for the defense read the
letter carefully with beads close together
before it was handed back for Mr. Miller
and his elocutionary effcrt which should
make the portrayal of a woman’s feelings
on paper public property. Seven of the
twelve jurors read the papers while the
preliminaries were being settled. They
stopped their perusal of the papers for a
minute, but immediately resumed it
when the recorder sustained Mr. Brooke’s
objection to the reading of the first letter
offered on theground that it had not been
sufficiently identified.
Mr. Miller, nothing daunted, picked up
another epistle from the 60 odd he had in
front of him. Mr. Carvalho said that in
his opinion the handwriting was the same
as that in another admittedly genuine
production of the little’wmnan in black.
Hope again entered the breast of the spec-
tators. as Mr. Brooke and his fellows
looked through this letter.
Out went this second letter on Mr.
Brooke’s objection, notwithstanding Mr.
McIntyre’s contention that its contents
showed the vein of hostility that existed
between the defendant and the dead wom-
an—her mother.
Mr. Miller picked out a third effort of
Mrs. Fleming.
A Letter to Felix Wilckes.
The third letter went the way of its pred-
ecessors, but the fourth was admitted. It
was to Felix Wilckes. a brother of Ferdi-
nand, and was not of great significance,
although the addressee was cautioned to
pay no attention‘to what the Blisses said.
In part the letter was as follows:
“Don’t become rattled at Mrs. Bliss’
talk. She only is a good deal curious, and
she would like to verify her ideas so as to
have something to fight over and find fault
about me, but unless some of you let the
cat out of the bag she will never know,
never find out through me, because I keep
my mouth shut. and when I do talk to her
don’t say much. I trust Flo, but still am
extremely careful what I tell her, too, be-
cause suspicions are nothing. but I keep
my own business to myself, and I want
you, dear Felix, to be careful also. Ex-
laughter and cutting up that made him
actually first suspicions that night of the
fortune over to Reney’s flat. If you would
keep him more at a dignified distance, as
it were, she would not be able to even
guess at anything. You must eradicate
such notions from her mind. I am up to
her. I have just confided to her, confiden-
tially, that I can’t abide you and Ferd,
because I can’t see that either of you are
interesting, and that she knows I can do
better than waste my time when I have
and influential. I have vowed that I shall
wed the millionaire. Of course if I change
my mind about it I am not to be blamed.
Anyhow I’ll be hanged if it is any of her
business anyway, and I shall not let her
know any of my business of any kind,
manner or description. If she can run and
manage big men like you and Fd. and
Alfred. etc., she can‘t and ehan’t run me
nor my affairs. I don’t care a continental
for either he or her house or anybody in
it except Flo, and when I get good and
ready I shall pack up, remove my furni-
ture and never cross the. threshold of the
door of the house she lives in so long as
the breath is in my body. No,’ never! I
say this without one’feeling of anger. I am
of a peaceable, loving nature, always true
as steel to those who are true to me, slow
to become angry—in most things—bear-
ing a great amount of annoyance, treach-
ery and double faced dealings in this fam-
