Mr. Wilson rested in the chair Of the wit
ness box and the Breckenridge forces con-
ferred. Meantime Mr.. Butterwortn en-
tered and Colonel Breckenridge SAID to him
in an undertone, laughing. wilson says

ed Mr.. Stoll in q louder tone. The remark
reached Judge Wilson and he stepped Tor
ward from his chair. What was itP' ne
asked.
"There is another court than this" an
swered the tall, thin smootn-1aceo, spec
tacled Kentuckian.
s.Vhat do YOU meant" asked the tall,
cadsyerous, gray haired lndlanian.
"T meant responded Stoll most deliber-
ately. THAT you state that forged let
ter, which 1 denounce as vile and In
famous"
what do you mean by another courtm
demanded Mr. Wilson, fiercely. what do
Won mean by the other courtF
Here Judge Bradley interposed. "Now,
gentlemen" be said, ii think you had bet
ter not proceed with this. :"
There was a moments sllenoe, no one
had more 10 say and Mr.. Wilson proceeded,
perfectly cool, with his argument. de

the summer of 1884.
"There is agirl ne met thstday, " be said {.
NOW look on this picture and than on
that,n and for the second picture be raised
his arm toward Col. Breckenridge.
'What an opportunity" he said, that
closed carriage offered for seduction"
Col. Breckenridge seemed to think that TO
seduce q girl it was necessary TO stand
under her window with lutte
AND SING LOVE SONGS TO HER.
Did not his selection of closed carriage
for that warm August night indicate a
purpose beyond the ordinary purposes OF q
drive.
Noon recess taken here.
There was much talk of duel during
the noon recess. Mr.. St0ll said TO the
Associated Press reporter: major But
terworth is senior counsel Of the case and
has control of il until il is finished. I'm
der his advice l shall do nothing. After
the case, / am my own master Then l
will have my innings. do not care to say
what ] shall DO"
When court resumed, Mr.. Wilson rose
beside the witness box, and In his usual
calm tones began to speak.
"In the heat OF this discussion, in the
presentation of facts" he said, counsel
may have conveyed impressions that they
did not intend ! had no thought OF insin-
uating that Mr.. Sto.l had forged the letter
or had procured il. ] had no intention 70
charge it upon him, or convey such an in
sinuation. / wished more to show him
how easy it is for
SUCH THINGS TO APPEAR.
"In the part Of the case now come to 1
shall have occasion to mention Mr.. StolPs
name again. / shall mention It because 1t
is a part Of the case When We become
connected with a case we cannot be very
well disassOciated from it in argument.
What more can l do as d lawyer and what
less would Mr.. Stoll as a lawyer have me
do"
Thereupon Mr.. Wilson dropped into his
argument again. He did not mention the
name of his opponent at once, but discussed
the part played by the volumes OF Wash
ingtOn Irving in the case and the proba-
bilities that Miss Pollard had given birth
10 a child at the Norwood convent, near
Cincinnati, in 1885 When MIR. Wilson
came TO the matter Of the Christmas card,
he said that he did not believe that Mr..
StOll, with all his sensitlveness, could OBJ
iect 10 what he was about TO say. When
the Sisters at the convent had been ques-
toned by Mr.. Stoll, there had been cues
tons put and answers given which lett no
other inference but that Attorney Carlisle
or Attorney Johnson had put there.
Judge Wilson, inquired Mr.. Stoll,
"have not the counsel for the defendant
puposely denied any such intentionm
II know" responded Mr.. Wilson, shut
say that there was such an inference TO
be drawn from it,"
Mr.. Wilson came next to the time Of
THE CONTRACT OF MARRIAGE,
and told how much was at stake for Made
line Pollard in such q union. He argued
that the woman had been less asinner than
the man. Was there anything like the love
for the man!
The story Of the Scarlet Letter" was
recalled most effectively by Judge Wilson.
At $3.50 Judge Bradley began his charge
TO the jury.
