BRECklNRIDGE'S DEFENSE

The Counsel For the Congressman Outline
Their Case.
WASHINGTON, March EFT was a field
day for the colleagues of Representative
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 specta-
tors 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, and the last words
of Madeline Pollard's story. Then they
Stun ered through the monotonous read
ing of long deposition.
The defense will be partly denial and
partly explanation-denial that Colonel
Breckenridge seduced Madeline Pollard;
that she gave birth to a child at the Nor
wood convent, and an explanation that she
trapped him into 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 ill"it relations be-
tween the two are 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 compelled
his promises to marry her under threats
several times repeated and emphasized by
display of pistols. Moreover it is prom
ised 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 substance is the defense, but it has
many branches and side issues.

In view OF the general discomfort
and frequent complaints reaching con
gress and the department of tho inte-
rior against the towhsite boards in
Oklahoma, DelegateFlynn has intro
duced a bill dirtcting these boards to
close up their work within six months
II seems that most OF these townsite
boards are prone to long service and
high salaries and are not averse, in or
der to continue their high salaries, to
starting up all of the controversies and
litigation possible. The Flynn bill
will compel them to complete the work
assigned them within six months. IT,
for any reason, however, such board
shall be unable to finish business as
signed TO 1t the board shall then cease
when its term of office expires and all
unfinished business on hand shall he
turned over to the Probate Judge for
the county where the board is assigned
to duty. The Probate Judge is fully
