Returns from the Maine elections

THE ORATOR IS DEFENSE
II Is a General Denial Of Miss
Pollard's Statements.
CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN INvBIGLBD.

The Plaintiffs Virtue Before Her Meeting
with Brecisinridge WIN he Impugned.
Miss Pollard said TO be Financially
Backed by Washington Society People.
WASHINGTON, March 22-Y Yesterday was
n field day for the colleagues of Repre-
sentative Breckenridge, of Kentucky.
Congress had taken a recess ostensibly to
sail down the Potomac on an excursion
and witness the trial of some big guns at
Indian Head, but the trial progressing in
the circuit court held greater charms for
many than the junket on government
gunboat. Gray heads and bald heads were
in a majority in Judge Bradley's court,
but the spectators were disappointed by
one of the least sensational DAYS of the
trial, although they heard the defense Of
Colonel Breckenridge outlined by his law
partner and attorney, Colonel John j.
Shelby, auC the last words of Madeline
Pollard's story. Then they slumbered
through the monotonous reading of a long
deposition.
The defense will be partly denial and
partly explanation-denial that Colonel
Breckenridge seduced Madeline Pollard, or
that she gave birth to child at the Nor
wood convent and an explanation that she
trapped him into a promise to marry her
on the mutual understanding that this
promise was only a device by which she
was to withdraw from his life and be able
to break off her relations with Mrs. Black
burn The long continued Illicit relations
between the two ere admitted without ex-
cuse or palliation except a reference to
the inherent weakness of human nature,
but the orators spokesman represents that
he was often anxious to break them off.
but was always inveigled into continuance
by the young woman; that she followed
him, demanded money from him and COM
PEELED his promises to marry her under
threats, several times repeated, and en-
phasized by display of pistols.
Moreover, it is promised to be shown
that Miss Pollard's early life had not been
one of virtue before the silver tongued
orator crossed her path. This, in sub
stance, is the Defense but it has many
branches and side issues. When the de-
fense had been outlined court adjourned

CINCINNATI, March 22.-It having devel-

her attorney. In answer to a question as
to where Miss Pollard was getting her
money to carry on the suit she spoke of a
visit to her by Miss Pollard to ask her aid
in the case, when Miss Pollard assured her
that her expenses were incurred by fund
raised for her in Washington. She pro-
ceeded:
"The subject was dropped then and was
not again referred to until was about to
leave Washington. Then learned from
Miss Pollard's attorneys and from her own
lips again that the society people Of
Washington had quietly raised a fund for
her to carry on her case with. | was told
the same story in substance before | left
Cincinnati by Guy Mallon, who was Miss
Pollard's attorney here"
elbow do you account, Mrs. Buchanan,
for the fund being so quietly raised by the
society people of WashingtonW
"Well, in the first place, while Wash
ington society is, of course, keeping very
quiet with reference to this case, it is in
general very indignant at Colonel Breck-
inridge for introducing Madeline Pollard

feeling amounts to positive bitterness in
many instances and society is resolved to
be avenged. BY this | mean introducing
her as his intended wife. The feeling to-

A NEW CHINESE TREATY.


II "Oulu IrAGtiCNllH AbTOgate the IN
isting Geary Exclusion Act.
WAsHMGToN, March % -- The senate
committee on foreign relations has been
considering an important Chinese treaty
negotiated by the new Chinese minister
and Secretary Gresham. The treaty was
sent to the senate some time ago and re-
ferred TO the foreign relations committee,
where it has been very fully considered
and discussed in all its details.
As negotiated the treaty practically sets
aside and supcrSedes the Scott exclusion
act and the recently enacted Geary law. 1t
is an immigration treaty, and provides
for the admttance Of Chinese immigrants
under restrictions. 1t has also for its OBJ
ject the protection of Chinese already in
this country. While it does not repeal the
Geary law, it is said to render it tnugatory
in many parti..pr'.
The treaty, though it may receive the
favorable consideration of a majority Of
the senate committee on foreign relations,
will have a stormy time in the senate.
The Pacific coast and western senators are
already vigorously fighting it, and they
have support from eastern senators who
have always opposed Chinese immigra-
tion and supported the vigorous exclusion
laws.
The new treaty, it is understood, runs
for twenty years, and if at the expiration
of the twenty years neither government
| shall give notice 20 the other of its inten-
| tion to have it terminated then it shall re-
main in force another twenty years. Dur
| ing the period of the life of the treaty
| Chinese are prohibited from entering the
country except upon conditions, Pro
vision is made for the return of any China
man who has a lawful wife, child or pa.
rent in the United States, or property to
the amount of 81 1000, or debts due him tC
| that amount.
The existing treaties providing for the
! privileges of travel and soiOurn in the
| United States of Chinese officials, teach
ers, students and travellers for curiosity
as well as the right of transit of Chinese
officials through the United States, are
! preserved. In return for concessions
| granted by this country the Chinese gov
ernment is TO take greater precautions tC
! prevent the coming of Chinese laborers tC
this country. Right of citizenship is not
| asked nor guaranteed.
| 1t is possible that the treaty may be ma
| terially modified before it is presented tC
the senate. and it is possible that the sen
ate will change it after it is considered il
| that body.

The Fate of the seigniorage Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 22-The president
is carefully listening to the arguments,
political and otherwise, addressed TO him
respecting the seigniorage bill. The best
information obtainable is that he has not
yet made up his mind what action to take,
so that no one can state what he will or
will not do. Messrs, Tracy, Dunphy and
other anti-silver congressman, say they
believe the bill will be vetoed On the
other hand the Democratic senators who
voted for the bill are generally very hope
full that the president will sign it. The
president has until the 30th instant to de-
eide what he shall do with the bill.
