From the conduct OF your attorney
am satisfied that, being one of the
gold democrats who left us in 1896, and
not at all in sympathy with the polit-
ical views of your husband and myself
he is willing to defeat Mr.. Benefits
purpose. if that can be done, no matter
how plainly that purpose is set forth.

Savage Toward Bryan.

Savage Toward Bryan.
The letter was read by Judge Stod.
dard, and when he finished il he turne
savagely to Mr.. Bryan, who sat acros.
he table, and asked:
MI. Bryan, what conduct OF Mrs
Benefits attorney do you refer TO il
this letter."
The first time ] talked with you
was convinced there sas more politics
in 1t thar law" replied Mr, Bryan.
Make your answer full and com
p,ete," shouted Judge Stoddard.
That covers the ground rejoined
Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan. was there any other ex-
cuse or justification for writing such a
letter reared the attorney.
That was sufficient retaliated Mr.
Bdyan.
Mr.. BRYAN was very COO. while Judge
Stoddard WAS angry that his integrity
SIS an attorney should be thus assailed.
He is n Of the most eminent mem
hers of The Connecticut bar. and was
for a number of year. On the superio.
court bench until he resigned. Judge
Stoddard called Mr.. i3ryan's attention
to a copy of the sealed letter in which
Mr.. Bennett made provision for a trust
of 100000 for Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan made a statement to the
court explaining why. Re had agreed
With Mrs. Bennett that part of the
$4,000 which was TO go TO him out of
the $4,000. the balar ce to be divided
between his wife and three children,
should be given to r~elutiyes of the Ben
nett family.
Il told Mrs. Bennett" continued Mr..
Bryan. that ! should pay the tnheri-
lance taX out of my portion. and that I
would give $1,000 to her niece for her
education and $1,000 to Mr.. Benefits
brother"
Stoddard Flags Bryan.
Judge Stoddard, in his address to the
jury. said:
What do you think of a lawyer that
draws a will for a friend and writes
himself an heir. and then tates that
undue influence was not used? That
lawyer lis SO lost to al sense of honor
and delicacy that courts and juries are
not content to accept his statement.
What dc, o think o. a solemn letter
addressed to a wife in the shadow of
death secreting the fact that S1O,0 600
was going TO another mans wife; Is
it not strange that Mr.. Bryan should
think Tint possibly Mrs. Bennett might
rot like lhe idea OF Mrs. Bryan and her
children being provided for when he
Gid not make provisions for his own !.
What do you think Of that letter, in
which he offered to pay the Inheritance
tax. coming from this liar who drew
this Will just think of a lawyer talk
ing $4,000 out of a family and not an
ticipating a contest?'

Philo S. Bennett We've made public
yesterday. Besides the disputed $50, 900
to Mr.. Bryan, he and his wife jointly
