Washington, March 23.-The reading of
dispositions was taken up late yesterday
afternoon. Madeline Pollard was seated
beside her lawyer, Judge Wilson, talking
to him, with a smile playing across her
face, and once as she talked she glanced
over her shoulder at the white-haired de-
PENDANT. Before Attorney Ston had pro-
ceeded far with his Evolutionary effort,
Miss Pollard and her company rose and
glided from the room, interrupting for a
moment the reading. The first deposit
ton was that of Sister Augustine, of the
Norwood convent asylum, where Miss
Pollard was at first confined. This sister
had been for years at the convent, did
not recognize Miss Pollard, who had been
1T the convent, and said there had never
been but one Louise Wilson there, and
she ave birth to a child there last fall.
The entries on the convent books under
the name of Miss Burgoyne co%rresponded
with the dates which Miss Pollard and
DR.. Street had given of her admittance
to the asylum, the birth of the child and
her departure. The name of the child
on the record was M. Gertrude Burgoyne.
According to the recollection of the sister
Miss Burgoyne had visited the convent
twice after the child was born. The
child, Marie Gertrude Burgoyne, had died
in July, 1885. When Miss Pollard was,
told of this, the sister deposed she had
thrown up her hands and run from the
room, but when she returned there was
no evidence of grief in her face. Several
other minor dispositions were read and
court adjourned until Monday.

Some idea Of the number of New
York men who get their clothes in Lon
don may be gathered from the fact that
this week there are twenty-three agents
for English tailoring houses In that
town. Most of the goods are brought
into this country free Of duty and
cost the wearer a little less than the
same clothes made here. All the big
London houses have places in New
York city where alterations are made
free Of charge.
