H0sEMAN POTTER WON.
His Fast Sprinting Surprises His Fellow
Firemen.

The race against time that was run
by Everett Potter, a member OF Hose
z, this morning, has been the chief
topic of conversation between the
members Of the fire department for the
past week. The race was the
result of conversation that occurred be-
tween Potter and George Thurstop OF
Hose sometime ago. Potter claimed
that he could run from the home OF En-
gine 10, on Burnside street,
to the corner OF Broad and
Eddy street, that is said to he a distance
OF az miles, in less than 10 minutes.
Thurston doubted that he could make
this record, and bet of a chowder was
made, the loser to pay for the spread that
would be enjoyed by the friends OF the
winner.
The race occurred this morning. Potter
started at about II o'clock and in Just 7st
minutes he had completed the distance.
This is excellent time, made by anyone
who is not professional pedestrian, the
best record for 1893 having been made by
Sidney Thomas Of Stamford Bridge,
England. He ran u miles in 6mn no3 3-5s.
The chowder won by Potter SYill be
served Mt the home OF Hose z this Sgening
and a jolly time is anticipated by those
who have been invited to be present.

JURY NOT MADE OF FOOLS
Although the Court Seems to
Imagine This the Case.
DISPOSITIONS IN POLLARD CASE
Read I'm Secret, Although Their Con-
tents Have Been Made Public and
Freely Commented Upon-Newspaper
Men Excluded from Courtroom.

WARRINGTON, March 24.-Judge Brad
ley executed bit ofstrategy on the news
paper men who had gathered in the court
room this morning TO hear the arguments
over the admissibility OF certain deposit
tions taken for the defense in the Pollard
Breckinridge case.
Just before ten O'Clock n whisper passed
among the lawyers and they slipped one
by one into the judges consultation
room adjoining the court. a uni
formed bailiff standing at the door
denied admission TO all but the legal
forces, Colonel Breckinridge and his son
Desha. The party was closeted IN the
Judges room all the morning.
There are three dispositions to which
Miss Pollard's attorneys make their prin-
cipal objections, the point involved being
the relevancy of testimony bearing upon
Miss PoIlard's character.
One OF thepe dispositions was made by
Alec Julian, the young blind man to
whom Miss Pollard alluded in her letter
to Wessie Brown as her "Blind Barna-
bas.', He asserts in the affidavit
taken in Kentucky that q mock marriage
was performed between Miss Pollard and
himself at Squire Tlnsiey's in Bridgeport,
on Christmas day, 1888, that
after drinking egg nog freely, he
The second deposition was made by w.
w. Resell, to whom Miss Pollard was en-
gagged to be married in 1884, when she was
3 student at Wesleyan seminary and at
which time she was intimate with Colonel
Breckinridge.
Rosell has deposed that he took liberties
with Miss Pollard in the library OF the
Wesleyan Seminary and that when he left
that town for Chicago, Miss Pollard
begged him to take her with him.
Miss Pollard denies both these state
ments.
The other deposition, to which the plain
till Is particularly opposed, was made by
DIR. Lewis OF Lexington, who affirms that
Colonel Swope once approached
him with a request that he perform a
criminal operation on woman whom he
he called s'Miss Pollard" The doctor
did not see the woman, nor
could he identify her with the
plaintiff, so the objection was made that
there Is nothing to connect the deposit
tion with the principal in this case.
The reason for secret hearing regard
ingthe depositions is to keep their con-
tents from the jury in case the court
decides to exclude them. Although the
jurors have been cautioned not to
read the newspapers, the judge probably
thinks that the headlines would be too
much for human curiosity to resist IL
spread before them Sunday morning.

APPEALS FOR A VETO.
Of the Bland Bill by All Sec
tions of the Country.
THE PRESIDENT HARD AT WORK
On the Merits and Dement'S of the
BiIl-Has Not Indicated TO Anyone
His Mind on the Matter-His Action
Mystery.

WASHINGTON. March A.-Probably be
cause it was cabinet day and therefore
difficult TO get the ear of the president,
there were few congressman at the White
House yesterday.
But they have in no degree been re-
fieved of anxiety as 70 the fate OF the
seigniorage bill The situation at the
White House presents'one strong feature
of novelty in the fact that it appears TO be
the scene of bloodless battle just now
between the congressman on the one
hand, the large majority Of whom are
urging the signing of the seigniorage
bill. and the great commercial interests
of the country on the other, for 20 out OF
every 80 of the communications coming
from them pray for the veto of the bill.
These communications by mail and
wire are not, as might be supposed, alto
gether of eastern origin. For instance,
there were appeals for a veto from Gin
cinnati, st. Louis, San Francisco and
Salem, Or. Virginia has also joined the
line, as was made evident by protests
against the bill from the cotton factories
of Norfolk and the transportation inter
ests there.
ThoughtfuiIy Considered by Cleveland.
A very thoughtful presentation of OBJ
jections TO the bill coming from Rich
mond has made some impression upon
the president. OF course it is manifestly
impossible for the president to read him
self In detail all of these communications.
but they are carefully examined by Mr..
Thurber, and any new point or sugges-
tion on either side of the case is brought
70 the presidents attention.
He has up to and including next Thurs
day TO make up his mind what to do with
the bill and there are indications that he
proposes to use most of this time in
thoughtful consideration of the matter.
It is certain that he has committed him
self TO no man, as respects his action on
the bill.
1t is noticeable that some communica-
tions received urging veto concede that
owing to the slow formation Of popular
opinion the result may be a temporary
party loss at the polls, but they insist
that in the end the sound and conservative
course they approve will surely be re-
warded by popular support.
This view is strongly expressed in the
communications from the south, which
in cases adjure the president to follow the
line of conduct pursued by him in making
the tariff issue.
The comparatively few appeals for the
signature of the bill as rule are based
on the plea that it will do no harm, and is
absolutely demanded to ensure party
unity and the control Of the house Of
representatives.
