POLLABD-BRL'OKENRIDaE CASE,
Letters, as .Well-as Personal Testi
mony For the Plaintiff.
Washington, March 21. Cross-examination
of the plaintiff in the Pol-lard-Breckeuridge
case was continued
uutil late yesterday. It began with
the identification and reading of letters
written by Miss Pollard to tier protec
tor, Rhodes, in November, 1834, In
which she asks him to mako a special
effort to tret monev to nav her board.
suggesting that he borrow it, and add
ing an invitation to come at a certain
hour to see her, savin jr they would be
alone aud have a pleasant time.
At the end of 1834 she wroteXo him
from Bridgeport, Ky. She wrote him
asking for money, and signing "Yours
with love." Ju February, 18S5, Just
before hbe waa L'otncr awav for the birth
of her first child, she reproached him
for not sending her money and told
him if he did not bring it he need not
come to see her.
Among the letters were two dated
New Orleans, postmarked Tooles
borough, Ky. Witness admitted she
never was in New Orleans. There
worn vftrimn others askim? for monev.
HUttwent on to say these demands for
money were ror me purpose oi uuay
ing Rhodes' suspicions; belli g in urgent
need of money seemed to present good
evidence she had no other resources
excent what she got from him. llreck-
enridge planned it all. He dictated
the letters dated .New oneana, ana
others. Some of them he wrote on a
typewriter when she was 111 at the asy
lum, saying iu explanation sbo was
i... ..i.. tn ha a ivnnwrlter. Borne of
them he wrote and dated ahead, mill
ing on the oars and elsewhere. The
court then took a receaa.

questions regarding her relations with

awered:
"He acted so queerly my suspicions
were aroused. I am not surprised now
considering the position ho was in. I
was pregnant then. I said "are you
going to keep your solemn promise to
marry mej If not, I am going to shoot
you ana myself with the revolver I
found in your bac.'' He said "mv
darling, I am going to marry you und
that on tho last of this month." After
that he wroto me a solemn letter re
newing bis promise to marry me."
Mr. Butterworth Interrupted "have
you that letter?" Miss Pollard ruised
her arm impressively, while every man
In court leaned forward to catch her
reply, "He took It away from me." she
said, "on the 17th day of May, with
the vilest, vilest He."
After the letter was written, and
before the 17th of May, Miss Pollard
continued, Col. Breckeurldge had sent
her flowers, and talked to her of their
future' married life. Sneakluc of thlB
meetiug, she said, pointing her finger
directly at the white haired congress
man sitting with his head bowed on
his breast and the eyes of the room full
of men upon him: "I think I saw
something near a look of pity on his
fice that day, more so than I bad ever
seen before. I think he liad a con
science that day, and waa really sorry
for -vbat ho had done,"
"Did you and he ever have any scenes
before this uufoitunate occurrence,"
asked Mr. Butterworth." "Life had
not been altogether pluasaut with any.
one living with Col. Breckeurldge.
People had etnt me an anonymous
letter telling me of his relations with a
negro woman." (Laughter.) Mr.
Butterworth then veered around IiIh
cross puestlonlng to the visits of Miss
Pollard and Col. Breckenridge to the
oltlco of the Washington chief of police.
When asked If he had not suggested
that they break their relations, she
struck the witness box with her open
hand, exclaiming: "No, never, never;
there was never such a word hinted on
his part," and she continued in a voice
choked with sobs. "I gavo up my
babies for him because he insisted on
it. A woman surely could uot do more
than give up her childreu. I laid my
baby iu its colli in because it needed a
motuer'8 care which I was not able to
give, because he made me put it away
from me. I never then tho sentence
was not finished for Madelino Pollard's
head was bowed on hert ms on tho
witness box, her Blende form was
shaking with great sobs aud there was
moisture in many eyes. No man in
the court room broke the silence even
by a whisj)er, until Mr. Wilson sug
gested that the court should adjourn.
Col. Breckeurldge turned around aud
smiled what was probablv a forced
smile, for he walked out of the court
room with his head bent in a dejected
way.
The cross-examination of Miss Pol
lard was concluded this afternoor.
Her council was so well satisfied with
the Impression alio made that they
rested the case In splto of the faot that
they had a number of additional wit
nesses and affidavits.
Washington, D. C. March 21.
The counsel for defense then outlined
defense. He said: "I am authorized
by defendant to say and it bo corrobo
rated by his solem oath that he did not
seduce her; that It never was made
known to him that she ever had any
children by him until filing this suit
last August, nor did ho under any cir
cumstances, mako any promise of
marriage to her." Defense did not in
tend to condone whatever was wrong
in the relations of the two-aud it was
only by the truth that defendant want
ed to be judged.
Lexinoton, Ky. March 21. Miss
Pollard's friends deny that she will
kill Breckenridge If she looses the suit
for breech of promise, but In unv event
they say she will write a book giving
all the unfortunate eventsof her life
and a graphic account of he infatuation
aud relations for 10 years with Breceu-ridge.

The Democracy of Marlon ooiintv

It was well along iu tbo afternoon
when tho actual work of the Conven

tho right man in the right place. He
held tho convention down as well as
auy man could. It was a turbulont
body of men, right fresh ftom the soil,
meaning to do what was right and the
majority diposed to very little of the
spirit of bitterness that seemed to aui
mate u few of the local bosses. Tho in

marked aud was somewhat resented.
