senator which evidently refers to con-
| test In court over his and Mrs Bradley's
cases: He says: "A day of wretchedness
ana tight, but on the whole we are vic

defective. Upon the dismissal which is

friends: let US hold together. and all will
be right. Madame has overshot the mark.
She cannot convict, and the failure will
be additional grounds

to you until no one else doubts"

Brown tells Mrs. Bradley that he has
made no compromise and adds: Madame
SAYS she will send us both to the peni-
Tertiary. She Is very bitter. The only
| talk about compromise Is the ina Gina ton
of the reporters"
Writing November 5 Mr.. Brown said:
Il have written YOU letter after letter
today and now destroy them all. I love
you. l love you too much to even send
the bitterness of my thought about the
T. and w. Will you get divorce from

failing to write about the affairs of the
farm in Idaho where she was staying,
saying: "You seem to have forgotten tue
farm. your duty. children and everything
else. What shas come over you? Why
don't you look after things and advise me
and help me? l am tired of this
everlasting evasion. but the same passion
ate love always drives me mad"
On December 20 Senator Brown devoted
his attention to his lawyers, saying:
Every hour my indignation increases. I
am thankful that 1t is not between us this

corning his difficulties in court and adds:
1.-THE court demanded that pay, and 1
had to pay I paid and came home more

-dition of absolute bankruptcy and yet
believe l shall meet and defeat all my
enemies"
The last letter of the year of 1902 was
written on December q. and in it Senator
Brown said: II grow more bitter every
hour at the treatment I am receiving. I

and there is nothing worth living for here.

had. but closes with renewed assurances
of affection. II am" he says. full of
the truest love tonight. Wish 1 could
see you more than anything, but we must

Mrs. Bradley on the Rack.
United States Attorney Baker entered
upon his cross-examination of Mrs. Brad
ley yesterday afternoon. He devoted COM
paratively little attention to the shooting
itself. but. going back to the early days of
and Mrs. Bradley, sought to show by read
ing letters and questioning the witness
that she had deliberately undertaken to
break up Senator Browns home and that
she was at enmity with Mrs. Brown as
early as 1901. He also brought out the
fact that Mrs. Bradley and Mrs. Brown
had originally bsen strong friends and
that this friendship even extended beyond
the time of the birth of Mrs. Bradley's
first child by Brown.
Three letters from Mrs. Bradley to
Brown were introduced by Mr.. Baker as a
part of his cross-examination. The first of
these was written from the Brown farm
and was undated 1t read:
II can do nothing but think and think
and yet there is no thought in it. There
is a sensation Of a whirl-y-gig going in
ing.
ITO formulate plan of action seems
entirely beyond me. l never could phil
osophize-and now when If ever in my life
Il ought to reason from cause to effect
1 am powerless-one idea coming and be-
ing followed in mad haste by one entirely
different Perhaps out of the chaos may
come a semblance Of order, but I am
helpless to bring it about.
) behold, how great a matter a little
fire kindleth!
"Lo has just been here for mamma to
go and see madame. Mamma refused to
go, and Lo said madame would think they
are lying. 1t would be too bad If madame
should learn the truth-so Lo thinks.
