For sale by POLLARD-BRECKINRIDGE MORE DEPOSITIONS FOR THE DEFENDANT READ. Decision of the Judge on the Deposi tions Objected to Evidence of an Alibi as to the Meeting at Sarah Gess' House Another Love Affair of the Plaintiff's" Brought to .Light in the Eyidenee. Washington, March 26. The trial of (he Pollard-Breckinridge case dragged wearily to-day. It was a day of depositions, mostly intended to establish an alibi on behalf of the defendant as to certain dates testified to by the plaintiff. Interest in the morning centered in the decision of Judge Bradley with reference to the admission of the Ohio and Kentucky depositions in behalf of Col. Breckinridge. The decision was rendered promptly after the court was called to order. He cited statutes to show that Circuit and District courts of the United States had the power to authorize depositions to be taken de bene esse, and it could not be successfully disputed, he said, that this was a court of the United States. The right of an individual to take depositions was a right which he might ex ercise or not at 1 L . I' and with which the court had nothing to do, but when deposi tions were presented to the court, it became the duty of the court to determine whether it was right to permit them to be read. This was a slight victory for Miss Pollard's attorneys who contended that the deposi tions had been taken "'tie bene esse or subject to consideration by the court as to their ad missibility. Judge Bradley then took up the specific objections : made to parts of testimony contained in the depositions. The first of these objectionable depositions was that of a man named Brand, who refused to answer whether he and Miss Poilard had main tained improper relations, a very odd j fu sal, so Judge .Bradley Said, in view of fact that j he had admitted that though a married man. he frequented houses of pros titution. What objection the deponent could have to answering the question the Judge could not see. A deposition of one Kaufman was admit ted, but Judge Bradley said if he could have suppressed the deposition of Brand, Coffin and one Hawking, on the ground that they were too filthy to be read, he would have done so, but unfortunately he could not overlook their legal rights.-' The deposition of John O'Toole was over ruled because it was based on hearsay, and so also were ;those of Dr. Green and Dr. Lewis. The deposition of Mrs. Miller and W. W. Roseli were not overruled, but were admitted subject to objections to specified questions when they were read. The first deposition read was that of Joseph C. Bailey, of Versailles, Ky., who is clerk of the Woodford -county court, who produced his records to suow that W. C. P. Breckinridge had been an attorney for R. B. and O. D. Brown in their trial for murder in 1884. The record showed that the Brown case was up in court cn August 5, 1884, at the time Miss Pollard testifted that Col. Breckinridge had met her at the house of Sarah Gessln Lexington, a few days after the alleged betrayal. The deponent said the case had gone along until August 10th, when D. D. Brown bad been admitted to bail. Col. Breckinridge was in court every day. Mr. Bailey's cross-examjnaiion was directed to showing that Col- Breckinridge might have attended court in Versailles each day and driven over to Lexington at night. Mr .Bailey, however,knew that Col.BreckiU' ridge alwaysBtayed in Versailles until late at night. Other depositions were read from lawyers and court officers showing .that Col. Breckin ridge was elsewhere at times' when Mi3 Pol lard says he was with her. The deposition of Wm. G. Wood, a carpen ter of Lexington, was read next. This was one of the depositions admitted this morn ing to evidence, subject to specific objection. He had met Madeline Pollard., he said, at the house of Mrs. Kean at Snickawar, near Lexington about May 1832, and at Miss bol lard's invitation palld aain and again, and within a couple ot months he and Miss Pol lard became engaged to be married. "I said when we were married I would take her to Europe. When it came near to the date for setting the time, I told her I could not take her to Europe it was too far and I was broke. She few into a passion and took off the ring I gave her and threw it at me. I picked the ring up. It was a gold ring aad cost 20." "What'did che say at this time." '7 hink she "said J was rich and could afford to t2e her to Eur6l6 " liDid this engagement continue long efter that?" "That ended it." The deponent said he was 42 years old at the time and Miss Pollard was a young womsn. Cross examined, Mr. Wood said in ans to a question, that his brothers and the "old iian," kicked about the en gagement and said if he broke the engage ment tney wouia neip mm pay lor a iiou.se wanted to buy.

' .Miss -oi-lard had written him a note just after this.

He had kissed her but once. That was on a bridge and the deponent said he did not know whether he put his arms about fceror not. "I iust kissed her," he said, "and I kissed her right" Laughter. This MnHwl the reading of the deposition and the court adjourned until to-morrow morning, SENATOR COLQUITT Passes Quietly From Life to Eternal Rest Preparations For the Pn neral A Sketch of His Life. Washington, March 26. Senator Colquitt died at his residence, No. 220 A street, S. E-, this city, at 7:10 o'clock this morning. The end was quiet and peaceful and death came as if the Senator were dropping into sleep. He had been sinking gradually all night. At 3 o'clock this morning the entire right side became totally paralyzed, and after that it was evident to all that death was at best a question of homs only. The entire family, except a daughter, Mrs. Newell, of Milledgeville, Ga., were present, as were also the family of his colleague Senator Gordon, who were summoned when the attack occurred at 3 o'clock. d Tire funeral will take place in the Senate Chamber to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock and will probably be conducted by Rev. V. H. Milburn, chaplain of the Senate. He is at present absent from the citv, but has been telegraphed for and will probably ar rive in time to officiate. The remains, will be taken to Macon, Ga., for interment. The cortege will proceed from the Capitol to the depot. After the funeral services in the Senate Chamber that body will probably take a recess until 12 o'clock when the Sen ate will resume its legislative business. ' A meeting of the Georgia delegation in the House was held in Speaker Crisp's room today to take action respecting the death of Senator Colquitt. Representative Turner was authorized to make formal reference, to the loss sustained by Georgia in the death of the Senator when the announcement of his death was received from the Senate. The Senate and House committees, and family, accompanying the remains will leave Washington on ' the Richmond and Danyille fast mail train at 11 o'clock a. m. to-morrow, arriving in Macon, Ga., at 11 o'clock a. m. the next day. The funeral party will be in charge of Mr. B. W. Lay ton, first assistant sergant-at-arms ot the Senate and a representative of the Rich mond and Danville railroad. Alfred Holt Colquitt was born in Walton county, Ga., April 20th 1824, and was conse quently in his 70th year. He was graduated at Princeton in 1841, studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1845. He served during the Mexican war as a staff officer with the rank of major. In 1852 he was elected to Congress as a Democrat, serving one term. He was a member of the Legisla ture in 1859 and a Presidential elector in 1860 on the Breckinridge ticket. He was a member of the secession convention of Geor gia and entered the Confederate army as captain. Later, he was chosen colonel of the Sixth Georgia infantry, promoted a brigadier general and after serving some time in that grade, was commissioned a ma jor general. In 1876 he was elected Gover nor of Georgia for four years, at the expi ration of which term he was re-elected for two years under the new constitution. He was then elected to the United States Sen ale and re-elected in 1888. Senator Colquitt was a distinguished son of a distinguished father, the later being a lawyer of eminence, a soldier, and a member of both branches of the National Legislature from Georgia. ' The Sun's Cotton lieview. New York, March 26. The Sun's cotton report says: Cotton declined 1 point, re covered this and advanced 4 points, lost this and then rallied and closed quiet at a net advance for the day of 2 to 3 points. Sales were 75,000 bales. There was holiday in Liverpool and Manchester.' New Orleans declined 1 point, recovered this and ad vanced 3 points and, later on, stood 1 point higher than on Thursday night. Port re ceipts on Saturday were 6,833 bales against 6.7J.7 on the previous Saturday, and 7,962 last year. ' To-day they were 6.430 bales, against 10,799 this day Jast week, f nd 9,247 last year; thus far this week., 13.203 bales. ag8insc 17,516 thus far last week. Spot cotton here was dull and unchanged. Sales were 623 bales for spinning. Southern markets were in most cases slow and ul altered. Without Liverpool advices, the cotton market was a little like the play of "Hamlet" with Ham let left out. And yet, it was not much quieter than it had been for some little time. The undertone was stronger, but there was no decided advance. The receipts at the ports do not look quite so formidable as formerly, the comparisons being with big"figur a year ago and will be all this week. The news from New England mills was more cheerful. A better demand froni American spinners was reported at some points at the South, notably at Norfolk, Memphis and some of the interior Texas towns. The price of cot ton it lo w.

The rebuke of Gov ernor Waite by the Supreme court last Saturday wfes equaled in severity by the de cisiorr Of Judge Glynn in the District court this morning upon the proceedings tor con tempt against Mayor Van Horn and the new members, Mullens and Barns. By this decision the injunction suit is dissolved on the ground that it was illegally based and the contempt suit was dismissed. The court censured Martin and Orr for arming men and placing dynamite in the city hall to de fend the hall from capture by the Governor after thev had applied to the courts for an adjudication of their claim. Judge Glynn tTted that Mullins and Barnes were de facto acd dejure entitled to the office and nat jiartin u . ". the office. The Governor is upheld at every point.

Both Houses Adopt Resolutions and ' Adjourn senator Gordon's An nouncement of the Death of : His Colleague Secretary Herbert's Report as to tbe Fine Imposed on the Carnegie Com- v pany. - v SENATE. - Washington, March 26. There were more Senators than usual present this morning when the opening prayer was delivered. The desfc and chair of the dead Senator, (Colquitt, of Georgia) in the first row of seats on the Democratic side of the Chamber, were draped in black cloth. In the absence of Chaplain Milburn, the prayer was made by Rev. Isaac M. Canter, pastor of the Ver non Place M. E. church, South. His refer ence to the death of Mr. Colquitt was" in tlwse words: .. ... t Bless, especially, the family of Thy servant who was so recently a member of this Chamber and who now lies in the cold embrace of death. We thank Thee for all that he was to his State and to his country, and to this Senate. Grant that Thee lesson which Thy Providence teaches us by this death may not be lost and that we may learn that death comes to all, in high places as well as in low." As soon as the journal of Thursday was read. Senator Harris rose and moved that when the Senate adjourn it be to meet at 9 o'clock a. m. to-morrow. The reason he said would be explained later. The motion was agreed to. Senator Gordon, the colleague of the dead Senator, then rose and said: "Mr. President, it falls lo my lot this morning to make the inexpressibly sad an nouncement of the death of my colleague, a long loved and cherished friend, Alfred H. Colquitt, late Senator from Georgia. Even if the circumstances around us per mitted I could not, this morning, I have not the heart speak of his long and. illus trious services to his State and the country. In the presence of the poignant grief to me, my memory turns to him as a long loved friend rather than as the brave soldier ex hibiting a high order of courage and of pa triotism in two wars, or as the civilian hold ing for a long series of years, high political statious, every one ot which he honored and adorned. ' "It may not be amiss, however, to say of him now that I have known him from my boyhood. We were companions in arms; we were neighbors and friends, we were political allies. In all these relations, for more than a third of a century, there has never been one word of discord between us, neyer a veil that separated us, never a thought of distrust, nothing save the most trusted loyalty, a deep, devoted and brotherly attachment. It may not be un duly to say further of him now,' that in every relation of life, whether as husband, father, son, friend, soldier or citizen, he has been earnest and faithful and true. The three dreaded monsyllables, "He is dead" will soon be spoken of others of this Cham ber, and many of us before long years shall pass. If it shall be added of each of us, as it can be of him, that in all the relations of life he was true; that above all and through all he kept his armor, as a Christian man, bright and burnished, there will haye been pronounced over our death beds all that elo quence Can pronounce. " "I move now the adoption of the follow ingresolutions:" Jiesolved, That the Senate has heard with great sorrow of the death ' of Alfred Holt Colquitt, the late Senator from the State of Georgia. Resolved, That a committee of nine Sena tors be appointed by the Vice President to take orders for superintending the funeral of the deceased, which will take place in the Senate Chamber to-morrow at 9 o'clock a. m. and that the Senate will attend the same. Resolved, That as a further mark of the respect entertained by the Senate for his memory, his remains shall be removed from Washington to Macon, Ga., in charge of the sergeant-at-arms and attended by the committee which shall have full power to carry these resolutions into effect. Resolved, That the secretary communicate these resolutions to the House of Represen tatives and invite the House of Representa tives to attend the funeral to-morrow at the hour named and to appoint a committeee to go with the committee of the Senate.- Resolved, That invitations be extended to the President and the members of his Cab inet, the Chief Justice and the Associate Justices of tbe United States, the diplomatic corps, the major-general commanding the " '" - iOTadmiral of thenawto o rn ,T OTl.l I II attend the tuneral.

When the sun rose on camp Lexington this morning not a sol dier ofithe Commonweal army was visi bly. The cold weather had driven them all out of their big tent during the night Fifty-eight of them had gone to the police station, where they were given lodgings on the cold stone floor. Others had scattered in' different directions, many of Lthem to return no more. Those who assem bled this morning at camp were given breakfast. Coxey claims that recruits are now coming in so fast that it is impossible to keep count, but if this statement is true the new arrivals are successfully keeping out Of sight. Three women in male attire are with the army. Nearly an inch of snow; covered the ground this morning with a temperature pretty well down toward zero. Coxey, Browne and other leaders slept comfortably at the hotel. J Examination of court records this morn ing showed mortgages against Coxey's prop erty to the extent of $48,000, and the claim that he would not be able to pay 10 cents on the dollar, if pressed, seems pretty well founded. He leaves the army at Alliance to go to Chicago, but claims he will he ah. sent only Jone night. .isrowne said this morning: "All hell cannot stoR this movement now. I have foreseen from the start just how it would be. I knew exactly how many men wonld start with us. what the weather would be, and all that. You can make up your 'mind that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." : vvnat was left of the army this morning breakfasted on bread and boiled bacon and black coffee.. Coxev savs the eold weather and the newspapers will he nnsni'oeHHfnl in. defeating his project. God is with him, he says, and his army will number 1,000 men inside of forty-eight hoars. The Common-! weai soicuers Deing tinnly clad, suffered from the cold and there were many loud complaints and threats of desertion unless I better weather favored the movement. j .Camp Lexineton was broken at. n nVWV and the start for Louisville was made. Less than seventy-five men were in line,- but Coxey and his lieutenants claimed every thing was working according to the celestial schedule with which they have been fur nished. They declare that provisions have I been donated in such Quantities that thev cannot handle them all. Canton people seemed this morning to have lost interest in the army and the soldiers were left this morning to fold their tents like Arabs and quietly steal away. A scheme to furnish the Commonweal army with fifteen or twenty gallons of bad whiskey has been set on foot, in hopes that the soldiers may get drunk and break up the expedition before it gets beyond Al liance. Whether this scheme is carried out or not, there is good prospect that trouble will be had within the next day or two. Many of the commonweal soldiers are murmuring and threatenine ae-ainst Marshal Louis Smith, "the great un known," who has shown an arrogant spirit id governing them. The Commonweal party pitched Camp Peffer at Louisville, Ohio., this afternoon and at present all is quiet at Buck Run. COMMERCIAL NEWS. Stocks and Bonds in NewJYork-The Grain and ProTisionJJIarkeisJof Chicago. New York, March 26. The Wall street markets were strong again to-day, and a further rise in prices was established. The market was influenced by the report that President Cleveland will to-morrow send his veto of the Bland Seigniqrage bill to Con gress, a decline in th& actual rates for Ster ling exchange, the announcement that no gold will be shipped by to-morrow's Euro pean steamers, and a belief tnat none wul be shipped on Wednesday. Again, the rail way reports to hand for February, including the St. Paul and Omaha, were better than expected, the St. Paul showing a net gain of $131,189 for the month. The declaration of the regular quarterly dividend of 1 per cent, by the Rock Island directors also-had a good effect. Besides, the reports for the third week of March published, were better to the extent that the decreases were not. as heavy as anticipated. There was a particu larly good demand for the trunk line shares. Lake Shore rising to 131, Michigan Central to 99J, and Canada Southern to 52J. The Grangers.

Tbe Fate of the Bland Bill Settled. .Washixgtos,' March 26. It is understood that if -the House of Representatives had not adjourned on account of the death of Senator Colquitt, the President would have sent to Speaker Crisp to-nay a message dis posing of tbe Seigniorage bill. , He was so busv early in the morning that he denied every one. except Secretaries Carlisle and Gresham, admission to thisfhce. While the message, which is said to be ready for transmission, is probably a veto, it is not at all unlikely that in case the President had signed the measure he would prefer to ex- 1 plain his reasons for his action. In any event there is little doubt that the matter is f.w . far - the Prwrident in Mnwrnnl. i ? Powers Latest U. S. Gov't Report A DISAGREEABLE EASTER DRIVING RAIN FOLLOWED BY A SNOW STORM.
