The Woman's Suffrage society Closing Up
Its Convention.

WAsHINGToN, ID. O., February IT.
The ladies attending the WOman's Suf-
irage convention had their pictures
taken in a group this morning. There
was large amount OF business on the
program for transaction today and the
convention Immediately proceeded TO
business after the picture taking.
The subject of assistance 20 the work
Of the association on the part OF the
newspapers Of the country came up in
cidentally as a question of discussion
and in this connection letters were read
from ID r. Anthony, a newspaper man
in Kansas. Offering to publish it in the
interest of the cause and letter from
Governor Waite, of Colorado, on the
subject OF woman suffrage 10 that State.
There was a feeling among some OF
the delegates TO the convention that
the next meeting should be held in
some olher city than Washington.
Washington found a friend in Mrs.
Lille Devreux Blake, who held that
the capital was the proper place TO hold
the convention because the law-making
power was here. The newspaper re-
ports sent out from this city were more
elaborate aud complete than would be
sent out from any other city and she
spoke In complimentary terms Of the
Associated Press In sending out daily
reports of the convention.
Atlanta, Ga, was chosen as the place
for holding the next annual wOman's
suffrage convention.

SATISFACTORY TERMS
Reached by the Conference Between
the Coney Island Club and
THE BIG NEW YORK JOCKEY CLUB.
The Conference Lasted an Hour,
and After it Was Over, All
Members Of the Two Commit
tees Refused to Make Public
the Terms Of the Agreement.

New YORK, February 1.-THE sue
cess OF the new jockey club, which the
majority Of horse owners have en-
dorsed, is now pretty we'll assured.
There has been considerable doubt as
to whether the Coney Island Jockey
Club would join hands with the new
organization, and many objections were
made by the Sheepshead Bay represent
atives to the proposed authority which
the jockey club wished to have over
their track. Many letters have been
written by both sides, which culminat-
ed in the appointment of the two con-
ference committees which met in the
board room of the Coney Island Jockey
Club to-day.
The conference committee OF the
new Jockey Club was composed of ]. R.
Keene. w. =. Thompson. John Hunter
and f. K. Sturgis and when they en-
tered the offices Of the Coney Island
Jockey Club in the Cumberland, at
Twenty-second and Broadway this af-
ternoon, they were welcomed by Presi-
dent J. G. K. Lawrence, Hon. George
Peabody WetmOre and Mr.. John G.
Hecksher, who are the stewards Of the
Coney Island Jockey Club.
The conference lasted an hour and II
was announced that the committees
had arrived at a satisfactory agree
ment.
Colonel Thompson was the first man
to leave the foom, but he had nothing
to say. Shortly after Mr.. Sturgiss
went away and he was equally retlcent.
A few minutes later Messrs Lawrence,
Hunter and Keene emerged from the
sanctum, their faces wreathed In smiles
and they were evidently on the best OF
terms. They were impervious to the
many questions asked them by the news
paper men who were in waiting, and the
only answer they gave was 1--WE have
come TO a satisfactory agreement.
who weakened, or did any one
weaken?" was the next question which
was IepedIeulJ dshou OuU HOe o"S"Ot ou'
1t is understood, however, that while
they came to a satisfactory agreement,
the ConeY Island people have great
deal the better Of it.
Although both committees had power
to act, 10 is understood that at meet
ing Of the Coney Island Jockey Club,
which will take place early next week,
their committee will make a report OF
what occurred to-day, and no doubt its
action will be ratified. There seems to
be now no possibility of a hitch.

MISS POLLARD.
Evidence Taken for the Defense Yesterday.
People Who Were Miss Pollard'S COmPan'
ions and Acquaintanoss When She is Al
legged to Have Been in a Delicate Condition,
Failed to NOdcs It.

CINCINNATI, O., February IA
Commercial Gazette special from Lex
ineton saws: In the examination OF wit
nesses for the defense in the Breckin-
ridge-Pollard case two witnesses were
examined.
Joseph McClelland, principal Of Sayre
Institute, where Miss Pollard attended
from the fall Of 1884 to February, 1886,
said she was frequently absent from the
school. She left the Institute in Feb
ruarv, 1885, and did not return until
September of the same year. Then she
remained until April. During this time
il was not uncommon for her to
be absent for one or several
days at a time. One of witnesses
daughters was Miss Polard's teacher
and three Of his daughters were school
mates Of Miss Pollard, so witness
thought that if anything had been
wrong with Miss Pollard, he should
have known 10. II she was in deli
cate condition in April, 1885, he saw
no indication Of il. He had no infor-
nation concerning Miss Pollard'S rela-
tions with James Rodes till about the
time Of her leaving school in the spring
of 1856, when he learned that Rodes
had been paying her bills up to that
time because she had contracted to
marry him when she finished school,
and the payment of her board. tuition,
etc, was part OF this contract.
The next witness was Mrs. NJ. A.
Ketchum. She stated that Miss Pol
lard entered her house as boarder in
the fall of 1884, and remained in her
house till about February, 1885.
Miss Pollard was absent during
her stay at Mrs. Ketchum's house.
Miss Polard's room could be reached
from the street. If there was any
thing unusual about Miss Pollard's
condition when she left her boarding
house either in 1885 or 1856, it was not
discovered by Mrs. Ketchum. DEPOSIT
tions for the defense will be taken in
Danvlle Monday, at Frankfort Tues
day and Wednesday and again here on
Thursda or Friday Of next week.

FINE FOUR-ROUND BATTLES.
Some Splendid Work Shown at Mike
Donovan's Benefit in New York Last
Night

Some Splendid Work Shown at Mike
Donovan's Benefit in New York Last
Night.
New YORK, February 17.-Hot four
round boxing bouts followed each other
in quick succession at the annual bene-
fit to Prof. Mike Donovan in the Lenox
Lyceum tonight. Unusually small
gloves were used and the ring was only
sixteen feet square.
Joe Ellingsworth, the we'll known
middleweight, was the referee, and
Benny Williams and Arthur Moore,
both OF the New York Athletic Club,
were the judges. The house was full
and included many policemen, who oc-
casionally took hand In the proceed
ings. The show opened with two coons,
Frank Craig, the "Harlem Coffee
Cooler" and Dick Baker, Of Norfolk,
Va, at catch weights. Craig got the
decision.
Tommy Kelly, the Harlem Spider,
once a wonderfully clever 110-pound
lad, and Tim Murphy, also OF Harlem,
an ex-amateur, who has recently be-
come sort of fad at the New York
athletic club, were announced as Ban
tams." Murphy was agreed upon by
the Judges as the winner.
Two one hundred and twenty pound
New Workers came next. They were
Tom Mulyey and Tom Hayes. The
/ latter won.
An English welter-weight, Billy
! Manser, OF Kent, went on with Ben.
/ Norton, OF Harlem, at 145 pounds. The
| Englishman was never in it. After be-
ing punched all around for two minutes
and twenty seconds, during which time
be was knocked down three times, ref
cree Ellingsworth took pity on him and
stopped the bout
A scrap took place between 1910
pound men, at catch weight. The con-
| testants were Joe Dumphy, of Syracuse,
and George Cannon, OF San Francisco.
Dumphy won. Both men were badly
cut on the face and breast.
A. l.. O'Brlen, of Philadelphia, and
Patsy Francis, OF Coney Island, came
out next. O'Brien used his right with
good effect and won the judges favor.
Billy Reheary, Of NewburR, went in
to do up Joe Burke in short order, al
! 100 pounds, but he met tartar. Re.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., February IT,
The Senate subcommittee which has
been investigating the Hawaiian Ques-
ton was in session for hours to-day, and
it is understood that the entire session
was devoted TO listening 20 the reading
Of Senator MOrgan's report, which has
been completed, and 90 discussing 10.
What, IL any changes, have been or
will be made in the report by the full
committee, no one outside Of the mem
bers can say, and they decline to make
any statement
AN that can be learned on the sub
iect is gathered from q statement made
few days since by a member OF the
committee 90 the effect that Senator
Morgan, who is in accord with the
views of the administration on the Ha-
waiian question, but those who remem-
Der how ardent au anneXatiOniSt he
had been, are inclined TO the opinion
that be will at least e nd some words Of

representing the former views OF the
administration and the latter the views
OF those opposed 90 this position, are
known 10 be quite radical, and it is
difficult 10 conceive how any man can
write q report which will be accepted
and agreed upon by bot b. Senators
Butler and sherman, the other two
members of the committee, have not
been outspoken. The belief of those
who know Senator Morgan is that his
report will be conservative In tone, but
that Go will not be lacking 10 forceful
expression, and decided statement con-
corning the essential facts involved.

SUE THE K. OF L.
Ex-Grand Master Workman Powdsrly, A. W.
Wright and John Devlin Bring Action to
Recover Salary and Expenses Claimed by
Thsm-Noiics Sent TO All Subordinate As
ssmbliss-Hayes's Views.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, February H.
II a bombshell had been exploded in
the midst OF their camp, local Knights
OF Labor could not have been more sur
prised yesterday when John Hayes,
Secretary Treasurer of the order Issued
the following notice:
ITO THE ORDER WHEREVER FOUND,
Brothers, T. V. Powderly,
Past Grand Master Workman; A. w.
Wright and John DevlIn, Of the late
General Executive Board, have entered
suit against the order of the knights OF
Labor for balances OF salary which
they claim are due them. This notice
is published to prevent any credence
being given to unreliable statements
that may be made in the public press.
II by decree OF court It is learned
that the order is indebted in any way
to these claimants, the order Is, and
will be fully able to meet any just
claims"
(Signed) "JoHN w. HAYES,
General Secretary Treasurer.
The notice was the first intimation
that the rank and file Of the order had
that Powderly, Devlin and Wright con-
templated entering a suit against the
order, or would In any way openly at
tack It. IL was an open secret that the
defeated trio were covertly endeavor-
ing TO create dissension In the ranks of
ths Knights, but, in view Of their past
expressions, It was not supposed that
they would ever come out boldly
and show their hands.
1t was ascertained that Powderly ct
al. in bringing their suits did not spec
ify the sums which they claimed.
Within the past month Powderly has
presented bills TO the order for salary
and expenses amounting to SO, 900 IL Is
stated as the belief OF those In a posi-
tion to know, that he will not confine
his claims TO the bills he had presented
but will make bold claim for
an enormous sum for the purpose Of
creating CONSERVATION in the
rank and file. The bills presented by
A. w. Wright and John Deylin amount
to about $500 each. Against each Is a
counter claim for s125 for advertising
Powderly's mine scheme In the Journal
Of the knights Of Labor. Wright and
Devlin both acknowledged the justice
of these claims on the floor Of the last
convention.
In reference to the suits, Secre-
tary-Treasurer Hayes said: ''The
notice Of the suits were served on
General Master Workman Sovereign
before he left for Washington.
The claim OF the two members is so
small that they well know they could
get their money whenever they wanted
IT. In fact they have come ln here from
week to week ever since tho convention
and got whatever they asked for.
"Powderly did not present his bills
until short time ago, and then six
came In a lump. he should have pre-
sented them monthly and knew IL.
There Is nothing left for as but TO re-
fer them to the General Executive
Board for audit. II looks Ike a scheme
and a very futile one, 10 disrupt the or

EN- ROUTE TO MEXICO.
Congressman Wilson Interviewed at El
PasO, Texas.

ELPAso, February 17.-Congressman
Wilson and Tarsney arrived here at
noon to-day on their way to the City OF
Mexico for q months stay. Mr. wilson
has been greatly improved by the 6almy
breezes of the Southwest. Asked about
the rejection of Peckham, he said that
he was not greatly surprised, though ne
was not altogether prepared Tor the
vote as it came.
Speaking to Times reporter con-
cerning the Drobale fate Of the tariff
bill in the Senate, Mr.. Wilson said that
he thought it would fare much better
than the Mckinley bill did, which re-
ceived 500 amendments. He thinks
that in all probability duty will De
put on sugar aud possibly on coal aud
iron. He thinks that Senator MUS ln-
luence in the subcommittee will pre-
vent any changes in the lead ore sched-
ule. The people OF FL Paso had pre-
pared 10 give Mr.. Wilson royal recep-
tion, but he could not leave his car and
continued his journey southwark to-
night.

Mn LEAN nInrch 8.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., February IT,
Judge Bradley, of the District Supreme
Court, after listening to counsel for
each side, fixed March S as the date Of
the beginning Of the hearing OF the suit
of Madeline Pollard against Represen-
tative w. c. p. Breckenridge, of Ken
lucky.
The case came up to-day in the form
OF arguments on the question OF post
ponement 70 trial. The court room was
crowded. Judge Jere Wilson and Car
deron Carlisle, of this city, represented
Miss Pollard, and Col. Phil Thompson,
OF Kentucky, and w. a. Mckinney, Of
this city, represented Congressman
Breckenridge. MIR. Mckinney took the
place of EnOch TOtten, of this city,
who is i'll in Florida.
Counsel Mckinney stated that he did
not want a postponement but merely
asked for continuance OF the case un-
iii March 2l, because OF the illness or
Mr.. Totten and the necessity Of taking
depositiOns. Mr.. Carlisle followed.
.sWe are here" said he, Ito oppose the
motion. Since the case was filed last
August no steps hSve been aken in or
out OF the court by the defendant look
ing TO a speedy hearing Of the trial OF
the case. rne demurrer was filed,
argued and overrnled and thereupon a
plea put in under order Of the court
Osst September). Nothing has been
done since until very lately, and that
has not been TO prepare for trial on the
mart of defendant. The extraordinary
nature of the case demands that the de-
fendant be ready for trial. Col. TOtten
is not the only counsel and the case can
certainly be proceeded with Ia
his absence. Notices have been
given of great number OF
depositi0nS on the part OF the defend
ant taken in Cincinnati, Hot Springs
Virginia, DanYille, Lexington and
Frankfort, KY, and other places. 1t
was early disclosed that policy Of de-
Law and obstruction was 10 be carried
out and this has been done. The case
is sn action for damages for breach OF
promise TO marry. The third count de-
tails the relations between the defend
ant and the plaintiff from 1884 TO the
time OF bringing the suit Now when
the plaintiff is ready to go to trial she
is met with the proposition under the
guise OF setting day, 70
postpone the trial for more than q
month. We ask the court to exercise
discretion aud not submit the plaintiff
to an unreasonable and unwarranted
delay.
Judge Wilson also spoke for the
plaintiff.
After long discussion Judge Brad
ley. after referring TO the fact that Rir.
Totten was not the only counsel, setted
-the matter by fixing on Thursday,
March 5, IS the date.
