W«m>4mi Cirr. April IL— Tbo loco!
: demand for oratory was largely satisfied
I today by the finishing of CoL PniJ Thomp
son's speech in tbo Pol lard- Breckinridge
trial and tbo beginning of a plsa by Ma}.
Butterworth. Although Maj. Batter*
worth talked more than half tbo
day be progressed no farther than
the first relations between the
client and Madeline Poi'ard back hi ISB4.
His who!# argument was devoted to the
point that the young woman bad not boon
the pure aed unsophisticated girl of 17
when the silver-haired colonel mot ber
that she had represented herself to bek It
was a strong display of oratory.
There waa an interesting incident dor*
tag the morning when Judge Bradley car*
lied into execution tho throat bo made
t eeveral times of clearing the room of spec*
?, tator* Mr. Butterworth had boon paint,
j tag giowtngljr the rirtue* of his client,
I whose friendship he had enjoyed for years,
• nodose declaring dramatically that no
man to whom Ben Butterworth had been
a friend in his proeperity would bo do>
Mr ted by him In adversity, when several
men broke into applauao. Tbo judge Im
mediately ordered all who wore not mem
bers of the bar to leave the room.
Col. Thorn peon resumed hie speech against
Madeline Pollard wboa court met today,
t Be first commented on the Improbability
if of the formal proposal of marriaco from
f Col. Breckinridgo to the plaintiff fa tho
tall of W92. and doolarod that here waa tho
: act of a woman who felt that if she coulo
•i not marry him she could disgrace him. la
;• s vehement manner bo pictureu what
§ most have been the agony of the congress,
man with the plaintiff following him
around, compelling him to tell Mrs. Black
barn they were to be married. "She was a
walking arsenal," said tbo lawyer. Tbomp.
I ton ciosed with an appeal to the jury to re
turn a verdict according to tho law and the
: testimony.
Maj. Butterworth, whose mild manoer
" Is in great contrast to bis colleague, began
g feis remarks by exproseiog gratification
| that the trial must soon be brought to an
> and. Upon thoee who were to blame for
I it being before the public the burden must
§ rest. There was no wrong to be righted
by this suit. Even to save the Uvea of the
too nominal principala the jndiciary could
not afford to deal with such a maas of con*
tagion. He would not use harsh language
i to Miss Poliard.bat he would that some
one had whispered into ber ears, "Go, and
j sin no more."
Butterworth spoke of his long acquaint.
I ance with the defendant and his laudation
of the defendant wse followed by applause
from the spectators. Judge Bradley rapped
: on his desk. "Now you may clear the
court room," he said to tbo bailiff. "We
[ have had enough outrages in thle court
room." No one stirred, at which tbo
i Judge aaid: "Every one not a member of
i the bar will have to leave the court room."
> Several men got up and started out, when
t one elderly spectator inquired: "Does that
apply to members of the bar from abroad T
lam a lawyer from New York." "I take
it for granted no attorney would diagraca
the court with such demonstrations. All
: lawyers from outside the city are welcome
here, but there are others sitting bare not
f members of the bar, to my knowledge."
; More men were ushered out by the bailiff,
j but more than balf the spectators re
| nained.
Then Mr. Butterworth reviewed the
l childhood of Miss Pollard as described by
; heraelt. He waa not there to extenuate
I the conduct of Col. Breckinridge. If he
! did he knew Col. Breckinridge would dts-
I charge him from the case. The country
J bas l>een solicitous about the 16-year-old
jl school girl, but there was no such person
? in the case. If she had been but 16 she wss
| sa much skilled in love-making as any
vomin ho had ever known. He paid a
| tribute to the bravery of Col. Breckinridge,
| and declared tho jury knew he waa such
| a man at heart. He wns going on to de
| scribe if Col. Breckinridge smiled the
| teople aaid be was a monster; when he
g looked grave they said be was shamming;
E but it Miss Pollard laughed they said,
I "Behold, she smiles even through a veil of
| tsars "
Judge Bradley Interrupted, saying:
| "Mr. Butterworth, don't you think you
bad better confine yourself to the evi
deuce in the case? All this is what you
bav* heard outside and haa no connection
if *lth the case."
Alter this an hour was apent in reading
Mi*a l'olSard's early letters snd diacuasing
, the testimony to ahow thst when
•he met uefendant she was not the
country girl she
had represented herself to be.
, The instincts of a virtuous woman wou;d
have led her to say, "Get out, you leper,"
: Mr. Butter worth ahouted, rushing down
; U>s anle towards his client.tirrceiy. "But,
80, »ti« li nl arranged to meet him the
* #«it day." He pounded one of the jurora
, eti the knee as he reproduced with mixed
aeuphor the atiil, amail voice crying
kindly in the name of bet mother to
shr.n* bacV trom this man. The next day
the colonel haJ taken her to an asstgua*
Uon house.
"Think of it," the lawyer shouted.
"I have thought of tt," Mr. Wilson ro»
1
Then Mr. huttsrworth slapped tbreeJu
rors on ths knee in succession ashs re
| kearse i Mi«* Pollard's description of the
i nionc.'i tlattery. "You lep*r," he
[ »k«iiited to the colonel, "way d:d

OAERSDALI IK A DILEMMA.
Baa Tot* Bets mi Kwawlwrly Sleeted
City OMclslti
Oakefdai e. April 3. —[SpeciaLl—The ro
cent decision of the aupreme court ia tbo
case of the town of Pullman, by which the
incorporation of that town was declared to
be legal, has placed Oskesdsle ia a queer
predicament. By tbia decision the cor
poration of Oakesdaie was also legal and
aa the term ot the officera of the old cor
poration doea not expire until December
it givea this city two seta of officera. The
recently elected mayor and council men
bad held a meeting, organised and elected
officers. The Silver Federation aeema to
bavo controlled ths recent election and
three ot the five council men are members
of that secret order, although this waa not
snown until sfter they were elected. In
accordance with ths doctrins of that order,
which is only an auxiliary of the People's
party, all improvements were to be
stopped. William McDonald, an ex
preacher and member of tho People's
party, was elected city attorney and he,
having a grievance against the local paper,
a Republican organ, ordered-all notices of
the passsge of ordinances and other city
printing to be posted on ths street corners
instead of being published in the paper.
No improvements were to be made by the
Populist council; the bonds voted for
water-jworks were supposed to be invalid
and the new council had declared itself
against water works despite the fact that
eighteen disastrous fires have occurred in
Oakesdaie in less than twenty months*
When the people had about given un
hope of escaping from this state of affairs
the decision above mentioned was rendered
and Oakesdaie went wild. A brass band
was brought forth and the main streets
were crowded by hundreds of the best
citixena, who cheered themselves hoarse.
At this juncture ths Populist attorney and
three of the conncilmen were seen on the
streets and hooted and jeered until they

porated and an era of prosperity will un
doubtedly follow in place of disaster, as
seemed evident when the Populists wsrs
