WHERE DOES ELIZA STAND?
That's What an inquisitiye Attorney
Wants to Know.
WHO TOLD THE TRUTH
Eleven Jurymen Are Wrestling With
the Hibbard-Fry Breach Of
Promise Case.
Special to the Globe.

special 10 the GlODe.
BEAVER, Pa, Nov. 23.-The court
room was again crowded to-day by eager
listeners to the arguments in the Hib-
bard-Fry breach of promise case. At
torney Wilson's opening address was
very brief. Mr.. Dougherty followed for
the defense. ''Now, where does
Eliza stand ?" asked Attorney
Dougherty. "She stands in the position
of a woman who asked a man to marry
her, and when that man refused sues
him because. she has damaged her own
affections. The damage she asks is
not 100000, as her friends have
had published, but $4,000, and the
question for you to decide is whether
there was any agreement of marriage
between them, the only question being
who told the truth" Attorney Dough-
erty ridiculed Mrs. Hibbard's testimony
at every point, attempting to cast a veil
of incredibly upon the entire narrative.
While Attorney Dougherty was speak
ing, Juryman Job was taken violently
ill and had to be removed from the
court. After some delay counsel agreed
to go on with
ELEVEN JURORS IN THE BOX.
Attorney Harrah followed his col
league. During his scathing remarks
while reviewing plaintiffs testimony
that lady showed the first evidence of
embarrassment. When he remarked
that there would be about as much senti-
ment in Fry's holding her hand as there
would be III the '.holding of pigs feet
with pair of tongs'' she hid her
eyes behind her handkerchief to
keep back tears OF indignation.
Later when Mr.. Harrah commenced
10 pull the skeleton from the closet of
her early married life, Mrs. Hubbard
became manifestly nervous and took
notes of his insinuations. After
Mr.. Buchanan had concluded his argu-
ment for the defense, Mr.. Cunningham
opened for the plaintiff, making a Wig
orous speech. The speeches continued
until $50 o'clock. at which hour the
Judge delivered his charge ami the jury
retired to consider their verdict. The
Judge said he would convene court at 10
O'Clock tonight to receive the verdict,
AT late hour Tonight the jury had not
agreed on a verdict.

English Politics.

English papers never tire of telling how
foul and abusive an American political cam
paign is. but in the whole history of Ameri-
can politics there is nothing so unspeakably
brutal as the following lines about Mr.. Glad
stone circulated in England by his political
enemies.
When the Grand Old Man goss to his doom
He viii ride in a fiery chariot,
And sit in state
On q red-hot plate
Twixt Satan and Judas Iseariot.
Says the devil, my place is quite full as you
see.
ButIll try and do all that can.
So I'll let Allanias and Judas so free,
And take in the Grand Old Man."
But the devil soon found the whole thing a
sell.
For old GLADLY corrupted all people in hell.

this virtue no doubt accounting in part
far the loss of beauty which is begin

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-The In
Quircr tomorrow will say: 1t trans
plred yesterday that negotiations for
settlement OF the trunk line rate war
are we'll underway. and there is a strong
probability that the present aspect OF
affairs will soon be changed. Up to the
present time all that has been accom-
plished is that both the Pennsylvania
and New York Central representatives
have expressed to each other their will
ingness to advance rates if any guar
antee can be secured that they will
be maintained. This applies to
both west and eastbound rates. In
the negotiations that occurred ii. Mex.
TWombly, son-in-Iaw of the late Will
lam II. Vanderbilt, has represented the
New York Central interest. Mr.. Twom-
bly, came over from New York Thurs
day and was entertained by vice preSi-
dent Frank Thomson at his residence
at Merton. The situation as regards
cast and West-bound rates was thor
oughly discussed, and in addition the
New Yorker conversed with President
Roberts and some others of the Penn
Sylyania officials and directors. His
ment made at interviews that Oc-
CURED earlier in the week. Vice PreSi-
dent Thomson, when asked about the
negotiations, said there was not much
he could say. as nothing had been done
definitely so far. at is true" he said,
THAT there have been several inter-
views between the representatives of
the Pennsylvania railroad and New York
Central. at which the subject of the re-
duction in rates was discussed in thor
Oughly friendly spirit. We accom-
plished nothing, because there has been
no means suggested by Which rates
Eanced. Mr., Thomson has par
ticipated in all the conferences
that have been held. In making the
statement quoted above he said he COW
cred the whole ground, and further in
Quiri merely confirmed the idea thus
terseIy put Both the New York Cen
trail and the Pennsylvania, said Mr.
Thompson, were willing to put up rates.
The only difficulty was that if they
were restored neither party could have
any assurance that they would be kept
up. There was no plan known which
would prevent future generalization.
Another conference between the Penn
SyIyania and New York Central people
will be held early next week.
FAVORABLE TO AN ADVANCE.
CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Twenty-tWo of
the lines in the Central Traffic associa-
ton have responded fayorably to the
request that meeting OF the general
managers be held next Friday for the
purpose of considering the restoration
of east-bound freight rates. The Van
derbilt and Pennsylvania lines have re-
fused TO sign the call, but have assured
the other roads that if the meeting is
held, they will be represented by per
sons authorized 10 act. An advance in
east-bound rates, as proposed, together
with a settlement of the dressed beef
dispute, which is now matter Of nego-
tiation, would undoubtedly prepare the
way for al advance in west-bound rates.
