Fnibusteripg Against the Bland Bill
Carried On.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Bland today
began his cosrcive tactics to compel a
vote on the silver seigniorage bill. The
bulk OF the Republicans and Demo-
cratic opponents Of the measure inaugu-
rated a filibuster, with the intention of
forcing. him to produce quorum of adj
vocates of the bill to pass it. and the
entire day was consumed in roll calls.
The highest number Bland was able TO
poll was 1863 in favor OF the demand for
the previous question on the motion to
close the debate, OF these lab were
Democrats, nine Populists and nine
Republicans. Page of Rhode Island and
Ryan OF New York refused to join the
flibuster, but voted against the motion.
The Republicans who voted with Bland
were: Bowers of California, Broderick,
Doolittle, Funston, Marsh, Hermann,
Post, Sweet.
At 4 O'Clock Bland abandoned further
attempt to secure a quorum, and after
passing resolution instructing the
Aergeant-at-arms to telegraph for alb
senteeB, a recess was taken till s
O'Clock, the evening session being de-
voted to consideration OF private pen.
sion bills.
Bland expresses the opinion that he
will have a quorum present tomorrow,
but the general impression ia he will
not be able to secure quorum until
Monday.
Tonight was the frat evening session,
this congress, for the consideration OF
pension bills. hilgore blocked all pro-
ceedings.
Martin, chairman of the committee
on invalid pensions, announced that
there we're but "a bills on the calendar.
He moved to go into committee of the
whole. Kilgore promptly demanded q
division which developed the presence
but % members, and Kilgore
promptly made the point Of no
quorum. Many appeals were made
to Kilgore by CLARK, Richardson,
Marsh and others, but he was obdurate.
A good deal of good natured chatting
followed, and Kilgore finally agreed that
if there was respectable attendance
next Friday night he would be willing
to make some concessions for the benefit
of deserving pensioners.
The roll was then called to determine
officially who was present. Forty-four
members responded to their names, and
upon the announcement at $3.50 the
house adjourned.

Defendant.

BY the Associated Press.
LEXINGTON, KY, Feb. 16.-Interest in
the Pollard rsckinridge case increases.
J. d. Pollard, brother OF Madeline. was
here on Wednesday and held long con-
consultations with those friendly to his
sister. Mics Pollard will not attend the
examination, as she will not be needed.
Charles H. Stoll. senior counsel of
Colonel Breckenridge, Is here. He said !:
II left Cincinnati after having exam
ined all the witnesses except one, Sister
Agnes OF the founding asy YUM, who is
i'll at present. The court adjourned
sine die, and will hear no more testi-
monv unless Sister Agnes RECEIVERS suffi-
GENTLY, when we may take her testi-
mony. This may not be necessary, az
Desha Breckenridge has written a state.
ment from her, in which she denies that
Miss Pollard was ever in the asylum.
Miss Pollard claims she had boy baby
in it. Plaintiff has failed to prove
single allegation made in her petition,
and that, too, in places she claimed the
testimony would be most damaging"
Four witnesses for the defense were
examined today. GateeBby Hswkina,
carpenter, eaid he bad known the
plaintiff from childhood. He told OF
party ct which mock marriage was
performed between Julian and Madge
Pollard. He said they were all drink
ing and the couple were then taken up
stairs and put to bed, but he did not
know whether Julian stayed there all
night or not. Hawkins said she was
smitten with Julian at the time. This
was when she WAS about 16 years old.
Molly Shindebower testified that Miss
Pollard associated with young men OF
bad reputation, taking rides with them
nights, often staying out as late as IL
O'Clock. Her conduct was such as to
cause the neighbors to talk about her.
Witness admitted that she herself led a
sporting life many years.
John Brand said he first saw Miss
Pollard in 1883 at the house OF Lena
Singleton, mish ess of James Rodes.
This house was known as an assignation
house. When he was admitted. woman
Lena Singleton told him was Mss Pol
lard, ran out of the room. He soon
afterward again called, and was then
introduced to Miss Pollard by another
woman. He had seen Miss Pollard and
talked with her; had taken her driving,
but being q married man, had to quit it,
because his wife was jealous. When
asked if his relations with her were at
any time improper, he refused to an
swer, and the examiner ruled that the
evidence was not competent.

Theatrical Circles Wrought Up Over
tho Tragedy.
New YORK, Feb. 16.--The fate of May
Brooklyn, who committed suicide in San
Francisco yesterday, was the subject of
general comment in theatrical circles
today. She is said to have bean en-
gagged to Frederick A. Loveoraft, Pal
mer's former business manager, and it
is considered a melancholy coincidence.
He, too, committed suicide some montha
ago and used the same poison as Miss
Brooklyn-csrbolic acid.
Buttons" to whom San Francisco
dispatch says Miss Brooklyn left her
effects, has frequented the theatrical
district some years, and is how about
26 years old, but from boyhood Misc
Brooklyn took friendly interest in
him.
Miss Brooklyn's past is dimly known.
1t is believed from disconnected facts
which she gave concerning her early
life, that she was the daughter of an
English curate OF good family. She
married at 16 Captain King, an English
army officer, but her married life was
unhappy and they separated. A few years
afterwards she went upon the stage,
making her debut with Irving's company
In q short time she became a star and
travelled in the provinces. The real
name of the dead actress is unknown.
She came here from England in 1883
with fair professional reputation. She
appeared here for the first time as Claire
in the Iron Mask at the Fifth avenue
theater, April 5, 1884. In 1885 she be-
came member OF Bidwell's stock COM
pany in New Orleans and remained there
until the spring of 1887, when she re-
turned here and joined Palmer's stock
company, remaining with it to the end.
Henry G. Jarrett, the actor who was
in Palmer's company with Miss Brook
lyn five years, and also knew her in
England, says she had been very des-
pendent for some time and often spoke
of suicide. When parting with heS in
the west Jarrett says she spoke of Love-
crafts sad fate and said: II won't be
here long myself"
