MORE OF HIS RECORD.

OoL Breokinrldffeta Story Continued on the Witness Stand.

HIS CR0SS-EXAM18ATI0S BEGINS.

Daring It He Acknowledges the Enormity of Uli Crime and Bays He Deserves Any Punishment Except Marriage to the Plaintiff.

HE NEVER PROMISED.

WASHINGTON, April 8.—That carriage ride in August, 1891, when, Miss Pollard said, Col. Breckinridge had made the first formal proposal of marriage to her, was the first subject to which CoL Breckinridge addressed himself when he again took the stand in the cirouit court. He denied, with his customary reiteration, that any such ride had taken place, or that he had made any proposal or that lie had talked over family matters. lie told of the visit to Maj. Moore's office with the plaintiff, and said that it was agreed to say that the plaintiff was going to New York to give birth to a child and that the witness was the cause of it She insisted that Breckinridge shonld say that he was the only one who had been intimate with her. Be absolutely refused to do so.

CoL Breckinridge denied in the most positive terms that he had any relations with the plaintiff of any nature whatever after April 90, 1898. This is the day upon which the defendant was secretly married to Mrs. Wing.

Upon the announcement that the direct examination had been finished, court adjourned until 2 p.m.

Cross-Examined.

Jere M. Wilson took Col. Breckinridge in hand for cross-examination after recess. The first questions were directed toward eliciting from the defendant admissions that in his early law practice friends had been obliged to make good sums of money improperly appropriated from clients. Col. Breckinridge was obliged to explain his connection with the Presbyterian church, which had been passive rather than active. He had lived in Lexington within four squares of the house occupied by Sarah Goss and had known the character of the place for twenty years. He also admitted that he had visited the house before he went there with Pollard.

When the arrangement was made with Miss Pollard to meet at the Goss place, it was, he said, at her suggestion. He was surprised to find that she knew of the place. Had she not suggested it, he would not have taken her there, as he did not wish to place such a girl as he supposed her to be in the power of the Goss woman.

Sprung a Trap.

Having secured the statement that Breckinridge had written no letters to Madeline Pollard in 1886, Mr. Wilson Bprung something very like a. trap by dropping into a line of questioning which indicates that he has in reserve testimony to show that the member from Kentucky dictated letters through a typewriter at the capitol. Then for the first time the defendant seemed to lose his temper and made most strenuous denials. The typewriter, whose testimony is next in order, is a Miss Louise Lowell, now a clerk in the treasury department. The colonel said he could not remember such a person. "You have said you wrote no letters to Miss Pollard in 18S0," continued Mr. Wilson. "Now, did you not take to Louise Lowell in February of 188(5 a manuscript letter beginning 'My Dear Sister Louise' and ask her to render it into typewriting?" "I decline to answer that unless you show me the paper you are asking the questions from. 1 have given you notice to produce all the letters you have from me and you have said you have none."

Gets tlie Colonel Excited.

The colonel was for the first time getting somewhat excited. It will be remembered that he had denied the statement of Miss Pollard that he had uddressed letters to her under the name of Louise Wilson, llis attorneys backed him up in his refusal, but Judge Bradley decided that the question was a fair one.

The witness continued to deny that lie had any recollection of having written such a letter. Judge Wilson then K&ked him if he had not, after two or three months of this correspondence, I'autioned his dear sister Louise not to leave the letters around, as curious persons might search bureau drawers. "I never under any circumstances wrote any such letter," replied the colonel, and then he tapped the witness box sharply as he asserted: "If any such letter is in existence it is a forgery, and if notes of any such there are, a perjury."

Mr. Wilson requested a specific account of all Miss Pollard had said during the first visit of Col. Breckinridge to the Wesleyan seminary, and that interview was again dissected, the colonel denying that Miss Pollard had said it was part of her agreement with Rhodes to repay the money he had advanced for her schooling if she did not marry him, but explained that she had asked if it would not be all right if she repaid the money, lie said: "There is an impression on my memory, although I cannot remember her language after ten years, that she said she had given him even a higher proof of her intention to marry him. Then I told her that she could not afford to marry him."

Same Kule Does Not Apply to Men. "And that same rule would apply to a man under the same circumstances?" "Well, that is a question of casuistry or sociology. I would not care to answer. If you ask me whether I would advise young woman who had illicit relations with a man to marry him, 1 would say yes but with a man it would be different, for the knowledge of it by the public would destroy the woman and would only injure the man." "Would not hurt the man?"

"Oh, it would not injure him so much as the woman. Society looks upon these things differently. If a young man should come to me under certain circumstances, I would advise him to marry the woman under other circumstances I would say to him, better death or hell. I am not talking of the justice of "Oh no," interrupted Mr. Wilson with a contemptuous air, "I was not asking you about justice."

FRANK M'CALIP.

Acknowledged Her Baseness. The witness in response to questions repeated the story of the carriage ride. Judge Wilson asked him: "Did you give licr any friendly advice on that occasion?" "I did not." "You were a man of 47 and she a girl of 17 to 21?" "That was all true and much more. No man in America had less excuse for such an action than I, with the domestic surroundings I then had. 1 have attempted to make no excuse for it it just happened so." "And the fact that she was a young girl in school makes it all the worse?' "You cannot frame words too strong to characterize it. I have not attempted to justify it or even defend it, and all the hell I have suffered since then I have deserved." "Then I understand you to say that the enormity of the act cannot be overestimated?" "There is but one punishment which I have not deserved, and that is to marry the woman who was concerned with me in the act"

After some further cross-examination court adjourned for the day, with the witness still on the stand.
