l did everything that l could do TO keep
her from going to Washington, and to
prevent an open scandal. This was in
the summer of 1887. Just about this
time she was thrown from her horse
and pretty severely injured. Soon
after this she came to my office to see
me. Out Of this conversation grew q
resumption of our relations which had
been dropped for more than twenty
months. Subsequently she said that
she feared she was pregnant, and
there was nothing left but for
her to go somewhere. There was
a doubt about her pregnancy, and

she had borrowed it from Mrs. Hoyt.

Breckenridge then testified that it was

leave Washington and terminate their
relations, but Miss Pollard came back
from time to time. He said he refused
to continue their relations any longer,
but she still came to him, holding over
him the threat of exposure. Col.
Breckenridge denied, as stated by Miss
Pollard, that be was concealed in room

hour OF adjournment, and at one time
threatened to keep the House in session
all night. After the previous question
was ordered, the House was treated to
the unusual spectacle of seeing the

and at least one attempt to bring a

declined to serve and the Speaker
directed Mr.. Patterson to proceed alone.
After the adoption of the Patterson
resolution, the excitement subsidized,

HOUSE.
When Speaker Crisp appeared in the
House he was greeted with tumultuous
applause from both democratic aud re-
publican members. There was no trace
of the storm that broodcd over The
chamber yesterday and every one APP
pcared TO he in good humor.
As the Speaker assembled the steps to
his seat nj the desk, the galleries took
mp the applause that started on the
floor and ii rapidly swellcd into huzzas
which were kept up several seconds
while the Speaker gently raped for or

After the reading of The journal, Mr..

FRIDAY EVENING. MAR. 30, 1894.

TUE GOVERNOR OF Maryland has re-
fused to sign bill passed by the legls-
lature of his State to supply free books
TO all the pupils of the public free
schools thereof; not. however, because
he is opposed to free books, but be-
cause no provision was made for buy
inc them. The Governor, therefore,
is lust as amenable TO the charge OF
demagosy as If he bad signed the bill.
But paternalism is coming. The State
must not only supply It's children with
free school houses and free school mas
tnrs, but with free school books also.
Soon it will be with free clothing, and
then with free food; and then, the
children having been provided for, the
men and women will have to be fed
and clothed also so that the whole idea
upon which the government was found
cd has been changed, and instead of
the people supporting the government,
the government will have to support
the people.

Mrs. LOCKWOOD AGAIN.-The Court
of Appeals at Richmond yesterday de-
MED a motion made by Mr.. Cohen,
Mrs. Belva a. Lockwood's associate
counsel, to allow her to practice law
in that court. Only four judges were
sitting, Judge Richardson being alb.
sent on account of sickness. Judge
Lacy saw nothing in the statute to pre-
vent woman from practicing law in
this State. Judge Fauntleroy was of
the same opinion, and said that he
had never seen any reason why wo-
man who paid taxes and had property
interests should not be allowed to ex-
ercise every right of citizenship. Judge
Hinton said that he was personally in
favor of admitting Mrs. Lockwood, but
that he had never been able to find one
single word giving countenance to
the idea that women should be per-
mitted or were expected to practice
law in the courts of Virginia. Judge
Lewis also thought that under the law of
this State females We're not admissible
to the bar. He would be glad to see
the Legislature change the law.
