SAYS THEY CANNOT BE TRUE
Dramatic Recital of an Interview With
an Acquaintancc—Breckinridge \Vill
Run For Congress No DIattcr
How the Suit'May Result.
Vi’Asmxo-Tox, April lax—Major Ben Bu t-
terworth had the floor again when the Pol—
lard-Breckinridge case was resumed today.
He began with the consideration of Miss
Pollard’s letters to James Rhodes, which
he said were the foundation of the case.
. He did not care anything about the top, he
said, if there was no foundation for it to
rest upon. After reading some of those
letters at length he came to the ones which
were dated in New Orleans, and which she
had said were written in Cincinnati and
sent to her moth er to mail to him. ’
He laid great stress on these tranSac-
tions, declaring that there was a great
mystery surrounding these letters and ex-
claimed: “There is one human being alive
and well who could clear up the mystery
of those letters—that is the mother who
gave birth to this woman-and she is ndt
called. That woman is alive and well in
Kentucky. and she is not called. They may
ask why we did not- call her, but we do not
go into the enemy’s camp for soldiers and
ammunition. ” '
He dealt particularly on the plaintiff’s
demands for money from Rhodes, and
when he came to an allusion in one of the
letters to her great enjoyment at reading
Washington Irving Mr. Wilson said, “Giro
me that Washington Irving letter, please.”
In addition to reading the letters Mr.
Butterworth consumed much time thrash-
ing over the testimony of Miss Pollard
from the record and pointing out a. few
discrepancies on minor points.
The Christmas Card Episode.
He commented sharply upon the failure
of the sisters at Norwood convent to iden-
tify Miss Pollard, the failure to discover
that any such person as Louise Wilson
had ever been there and the informa-
tion that Mrs. Burgoyne had been
in the place years after Miss Pollard
claimed to have been there. In talk—
ing about the finding of the Christmas
card in the book there he acquitted Attor:
ney Carlisle of the suspicion of having
been implicated in any chicanery. He
pointed. out, however, to show the fallibil—
lty of-human testimony, that Mr. Carlisle
had sworn that nothing had been said
about the card until he found it, while
Mr. Johnson, his colleague, had said that
Miss Pollard suggested that it was in the
book before it was "found.
There was a little passage between the
speaker and Mr. Wilson when the former
expressed doubt whether the books had
ever belonged to Miss Pollard. ‘ ’
Wilson suggested that since Mr.
worth would not have a. chance to reply
to him he might answor a question which
would be asked, why Miss Hoyt and Miss
identify thebooks.‘ , ’
This Mr.‘ Butterworth answered, after
the Yankee fashion, by asking another
question, namely, why Miss Pollard had
not described the books before they were
unsealed and why Miss Pollard had not
gone before the sisters for identification
when she was within the tinkling of a
bell.
“That shows all you know about it,” re-
plied Mr. Wilson. “She was not there,
and neither was Breckinridge.”
“Breckinridge did not claim to have
been confined there,” was the reply, and
this sally drew a laugh, which provoked
Judge Bradley to threaten to clear the
courtroom. '
The attorneys for the other side would
claim, Mr. Butterworth resumed, that the
woman was dominated by a stronger
mind. They would say that she was a
moral potentiality, “a pawn on a moral
chessboard. ”
According to Miss Lowell, the capitol
typewriter, and Miss Pollard herself, Colo
nel Breckinridge had endeavored to con-
ceal his letters to her in 1886 by first writ~
ing:them in his own hand, taking them to
a. woman to copy on house of represntative
paper and then signing his name to them
in lead pencil.
W'hen noon came, Mr. Butterworth was
just working up to the coming of Made-
line Pollard to \V'ashington. She had tes~
tified that Colonel Breckinridge insisted
upon her coming.
Breckinrid-ge Corrects. '
“ ‘Oh,’ they will say, ‘but he did it!’ '
exclaimed the law yer dramatically._ “That
is a cowardly surrender of womanly quali-
ties, a base betrayal of womanly courage
to say that he did it.”
Soon afterward, as the lawyer was speak.
ing of the child born in \Vnshington, Colo
nel Breckinridge leaned, forward over the
table and corrected him.
“You are 'mistaken,” the colonel said
“I did not know.~ she had a living child un
til Miss Pollard testified. I had heard Shh-
had an accident.”
Then Mr. Butterworth portrayed the op
portunities to elevate herself here in Wash
ington which Miss Pollard had before her
if she had only been minded to embrace
them; how she should have shrunk from
continuing a life of shame with a man
with wife and family. He told next a
dramatic incident of how a man had' met
him on the? street the day before and talk
ed with him about the case. ‘
“Ben, I don’t see why Breckim'idge
didn’t break this thing up right there,"
the man had ‘said, and he (Butterworth)
had faced the man with an incident from
his own life, asking, “Do you remember 336
years ago, when a man with a. child and a
family got the fingers of a woman in his
hair, how he sweat blood and faced ruin?”
“Ben, your memory goes back too far,"
the man had said.
“ ‘Yes, but what did he get tangled for?’
you will ask,” said the lawyer to the jury.
“Oh, but that’s the sin. That’s to be con-
demned. But is this man to be ofiered up
as a vicarious sacrifice?” ,
Mr. Butterworth then went on to tell of
the weaknesses of Robert Burns in spite
.of his brilliant talents; to tell how men
who controlled empires and framed finan‘~
cial systems had been unable to resist
their passions. "You have all heard how
the poor, tired soldier, yielding to nature’s
demands, slept upon his post,” he contin-
ued, “not that he did not love his country,
and you know that to answer the demands
of military laws he was taken out to be
shot. But never was a soldier to be shot
because another man had slept at his post.”
He drew another picture of ColOnel
~Breckinridge, V“crouching helpless at the
Bead thalam—
Butter- '
Ketcham had not been given a. chance to ‘
woman's fee ," and Went On to say how.
.horribly revolting was her story that
he could meet his mistress before the
mold had gathered on the grave clOthes of
his buried wife, and that he had taken her
to a bawdy house for two hours to convey
to her thetender message that she was to
follow in the footsteps of that wife; ,
Buttorwortll “’axes Eloquent.
“Yes, and that's what makes it so bad,”
interrupted Mr. lVilson. *"Yes, and that’s
what makes your manly manhood know
it .is not so,” retorted Mr. Butterworth.
"If such things are true, why don’t they
send another deluge to wipe out this pes-
tiferous wrct-ch ?” '
It implied that a woman of corrupt life
from choice,” who had held doubtful rela~
tions with Rhodesuwho had had illegiti-
mate childrcn at sundry and divers places
and miscarriages at others, was to sit at
his table in a union that was the acme of
all that was vicious and contemptible.
That woman, who had lived 10 years
without earning a cent as the mistress 'of
his life, wanted money and nothing else.
Mr. Butterworth firmly believed that the
woman knew of that secret marriage in
New York on the 29th of April.
Breckinridge Will Run For Congress.
FRANKFORT, Ky., April 13.’—A letter to a
personal friend in this city was received
from Colonel Breckinridge yesterday. It
states positively that he will make the race
for congress at all hazards. The following
extract from the letter will show the tenor
of the epistle: “I see from s‘tvzptements go-
ing around through the papers that in the
event of an adverse verdict here I would
withdraw from the race : for congress. I
.end. I am not going to be on the defen-
sive, but am geing to make, an aggressive
fight.” _

THE llII-NI‘NG TBOUBLE‘S.
Strikers, Driven 011‘ by a. Show of Force,
Start to Look For Aid. ,
CONNELLSVILLE, l-‘a., April 13.—A mob
of 500 strikers assembled at Dunbar before
daylight with the nvOWed intention of
forcing the workmen out at the Hill Farm
works, but the show of force made by the
deputies frightened the strikers ofi', and
they left for re-en forccm ents, moving. in
the direction of Mount Braddock. It was
given out by some of the strikers that they
would return to Hill Farm and attack the
deputies and men at work as soon as they
could augment their force to 800 or 1,000 by
men from Trotter and Mount Braddock.
There is no disturbance at the works in
this vicinity, though the strikers are mak-
ing threatening demonstrations at Trotter
and Adelaide. The operators are fully
prepared for any emergency. A large
number of deputies were sworn in at
Trotter and Leisinring Nos. 1 and 3 by
Deputy Sheriff Richards. The deputies
were also taken from the Davidson works
to Trotter and Leisiuring.
At Lemont a large crowd of Hungarian
women assembled today and with clubs
and stones drove off the workmen.
The Big Chicago Strike..
CHICAGO, April 13.—The lockout of the
building trades, which occurred today,was
nutvsogeneral' as was expected, not' more

ployees would be affected, but there was a
lack of harmony among the employers,
and the lockout was not general. The
workingmen claim that- the movementis
a complete failure, and many of the boss
builders are of the same Opinion.

PHILADELPHIA, April 13.—Promptly at 8
o’clock this morning, the much heralded
.hour, ChristophersgColumbus Jones, di-

army, and three recruits started on their
march to join the main body of the com-

about 15 miles from Washington. A few
minutes before 8;_o’clock Marshal Jones
came forth frOm. his headquarters at 1312
Filbert stre'et, followed by about a. dozen
persons. He paused on the pavement a
few moments‘andthen shouted, “March.”
The first person-to make a move was a. big
six footer, .bearing a badly faded United
States flag; the. others faltered a. moment.
The cold drizcliu’g: rain had a. dampen-

had no apparept effect on Christopher Co—

in a shawlsti‘ap in One hand and a map of
the route to-be traveled in the other, the
marshal and his three faithfuls, Secretary
C. T. McKee, William Phillips and the big
flagbearer, followed by‘300 or 400 booting
men and boys, turned} into Market street
and were soon fairly launched, on their
dreary march. The army traveled but five
miles today. ' Their‘flr'st stopwas Darby,
a sr’rll to ya on the outskirts of this city.
Marshal J ones had' made'great prepara-

DARBY, Pia, April 13r-'—The Philadelphia
division of Coxey’s commonweal numbered
50 men when, under command of Christo-
pher Columbus J ones, it reached this town
at 11 o’clock today. But Christopher Co-
lumbus was a very and man. Two of his
“star recruits” had deserted him upon
reaching the Delaware county line. The
deserters were the big six fobter who acted
as flagbearer and “Recruit Butler.”
The deserters-were none other than Spe-
cial Detectives Bernstein and Baker of the
Philadelphia. force. They had orders from
the superintendent to leave the army at
the county line. The 50 recruits are now
quartered in “Heavenly Recruits” hall: It
is raining hard, and as provisions are
scarce it is doubtful if Jones gets away
from Darby with as many men as he
brought here. The army will stop here a
couple of days, when they leave for Ches-
ter, a distance of 12 miles. From Chester
they go to Wilmington, thence to Newark,
Del., Charlestown, Perryville, Havre de
Grace, Chase’s and Baltimore.
The Advance of Coxey.
CHALK HILL, Pa., April 13.——The army of
the commonweal had not regained its ac-
customed sprightliness when the bugle
was sounded in the old colonial stage
house that brought the men slowly from
the beds. Although 9 o’clock was the hour
set for the marchto be resumed, the men
were slow to move, not being sufficiently
in harmony with. the movement to consid-
er with cheerfulness the leaving of such
warm’ and comfortable quarters for a. plod-
ding through the .. snow of a dozen miles. ,
The noon step was at Somerfie‘ld and the
camp tonight at Petersburg in a commo— -

LourvaLLE AND, PHIL THOMPSON.
His Speech For the Defense in the Breckin-

LOUIvaLLE, April‘ 13. —- The Evening
Times attacks the speech of Mr. Phil
Thompson in defense of Congressman
Breckinridge'. It says, “Colonel tThomp-
son’s entire argument from opening to
close is pitched upon a plane so low,,bru—
tal and vulgar that every self respecting
and state .loving Kentuckian must rise up
:tn-l repudiate with scorn, indignation and
«. . tatiou the estimate which he places
rpm; American manhood and woman-
hoor .” . '
The. Courier-Journal today says in refer-
ence to the same matter: “\Ve know of no
speech made under circumstances of such
publicity that is in so many respects dis-
creditable. That’ Colonel Thompson chose
to give it a tone which could have been
hardly lower than to have published it in
words which could scarcely have been
coarser are matters within the purview of
his own tastes. But that .he chose to base
it on a conception of morals and philos-
ophy as vicious as it is false' is not only a
legitimate but an imperative subject for
public condemnation.”
