Blook. 17-11 tf Washington City, April 13.���The looal demand for oratory was largely satisfied to-day by the finishing of Colonel Phil Thompson's speeoh in tbe Pollard-Breokin- ridge trial, and the beginning of a plea by Major Butterworth. Although Major Butterworth talked more than half the day he progressed no further than the first relations between his client and Madeline Pollard back in 1884. His whole argument was devoted to the point that the young woman had not been the pure and unsophisticated girl of 17 when the silver- haired colonel met her that she had represented herself to be. It was a strong display of oratory. Major Butterworth, whose mild manner is in great contrast to his colleague, began his remarks by expressing gratification that the trial must soon be brought to an end, Upon those who were to blame for it being before the public the burden must rest. There was no wrong to be righted by this suit. Even to save the lives of the two nominal principals the judiciary could not afford to deal with such a mass of contagion. He would not use harsh language to Miss Pollard, but he would that some one had whispered into hor ears, "Go, and sin no more." Butterworth spoki* of his long acquaintance with the defendant, and his laudation of the defendant was followed by applause from the spectators. Judge Bradley rapped on his desk. "Now you may clear the oourt room," he said to tbe bailiff. " -Ve have had enough outrages in this oourt room." No oue stirred, at whioh the judge said: "Everyone not a member of the bar will have to leave the court room." Several men got up and started out, when one elderly spectator inquired: "Does that apply to members of the bar from abroad? I am a lawyer from New York." "I take it for granted no attorney would disgrace the court with such demonstrations. All lawyers from outside the oity are welcome here, but there are others sitting here no* members of the bar, to my knowledge." More men were ushered out by the bailiff but more than half the spectators remained. Then Mr. Butterworth reviewed the childhood of Miss Pollard as described by herself. He was not there to extenuate the conduot of Col. Breckinridge. If he did he knew Col. Breckinridge would disoharge him from the case. The country has been solicitous about the 16 year-old school girl, but there was no such person in the case. If she had been but 16 she was as muck skilled in love-making as any woman he had ever known. He paid a tribute to the bravery of C**l. Breckinridge, and declared the jury knew he was audi a man at heart. Ho was going on t�� describe if Col. Breckinridge smiled the people said he was a monster; when he looked grave they said he was shimming; but *f Miss Pollard laughed they said, "Behold, she smiles even through a veil nf ears." Judge Biadley interrupted, saying: "Mr. Butterworth, don't you think you had better continue yourself to the evidence in the case? All this is what you have heard outside and has no connection with the case." Afier this an hour was spent in reading MisB Pollard's early letters aud discussing the testimony to show that when she met defendant she was not the unsophisticated country girl she had represented herself to be. The instincts of a virtuous woman would have led her to say, "Get out you leper," Mr. Butterworth shouted, rushing down the aisle towards his client fiercely, "But, no, she had arranged to meet him the next day." He pounded one of the jurors on the kree as he reproduced with mixed metaphor t he still, small voice crying loudly in the name of her mother to shrink back irom this .man. The next day the oolonel had taken her to an assignation houae. 'Think of it," tho lawyer shouted. "I have thought of it," Mr. Wilson replied. Then Mr. Butterworth slapped three jurors on tbe knee in succession as he rehearsed Miss Pollard's description of the colonel's flattery. "You leper, he shouted to the colonel, "why did she not act that way and leave you?" He told how Miss j Pollard had, after resisting in the closed ! carnage and the Cincinnati assignation house, felt ready to tackle him again at Sarah Guess', to travel ninety miles to re- I sist him. She knew of his wife's children. She knew that it would ruin her and might ruin him and bis daughters. Mr. Butterworth said he was willing to ' give Miss Pollard credit for being a great , genius in certain lines, but the hardest part of her story to believe was that part which stated that in that half an hour in the hovel of Sarah Guess, while the defendant had gone home to his dinner, she had thought over the whole matter, had given up honor, friends and future, and had decided to enter Col, Breckinridge's life, and Mr. \\ ilson told that story as though he believed it. The speaker told some funny stories about his boyish escapades, and went on to compare the plaintiff with Delilah, who had got her hands in the hair of Samson and then had been willing to pull down the temple over herself to accomplish bis ruin. Further on he deolared that there was no memento of all these years of affcc- tio'i save that little willow basket, so lately handled by the fingers of his dead wife, brought into the case for no other purpose than to make his fault seem more abhor rent. W. C. P. Breckinridge had never given to his mis'-e-.s the possessions of hiB wife before her grave clothes had crumbled. "I can grant you anything else," said the lawyer to the jvrp, "but that be talked to his mistress of his dead wife. Everybody iu Washington City knew what a happy home he bad in spite of these faults which his family knew. Yet such were the charges (meaning the re.'ereuce to Col. Breckinridge's dead wife) brought by this woman, who had forgotten her own children afier ihey had them laid in Iter arms. The oniy wty to make a woman forge* In r .-liild- dien was to lake them away from lier. After st e had once clasped them iu her at ms she uould follow them through the gates of hell." Mr. Butterworth asked the court for an adjournment shortly before 4 o'clock, as he was greatly exhausted. Judge Bradley acceded to the request, and, remarking that he bad noticed a large crowd outside the door, suggested that Col. Breckinridge might go out before the spectators, colonel seemed glad to do. which tho Tried for Peddling Hand Bills; Seattle, April 13.���William Hart, an actor, was arrested yesterday on a warrant from the municipal court to be tried for oausing Gus Johnson, a young man, to peddle hand bills. Johnson was tried Tuesday and made the plea that he was told to dis tribute the bills by Hart. For a Brother In B.C. Toronto, April 13. ���At a recent religious revival in Toronto held by Crossley and Hunter, who are known in British Columbia as having taken considerable money out of it in one way and leaving it in realty, the special prayers included those "for a brother in British Columbia who iB under conviction." Found Uneonsoious. Toronto, April 13. ���Yesterday Mrs. Robert McGinley, aged 40, who with her husband aud two sons lived in a wretched hovel near Cairbank Junction was found unconscious in a ditch beside the railway track, some distance from her home. > She was at once carried to her home but died before reaching there. A number of wounds were found on her body and an inquest will be held. Last night fiie broke out in the factory of Inglis _ S_s, engine builders and boiler manufacturers, Strachau avenue, doing damage amounting to about {8,000. The loss is covered by insurance. Corbett as a Co-Respondent. San Bernardino, Cal., April 13.���A sensational divorce case was tried in the superior com t before Judge Otis in which Elizabeth Johnson was plaintiff and H. M. Johnson defendant. Both were residents of Redlands. The husband filed a cross bill alleging adultery and named as co-respondent James J. Corbett and J. E. Malliugan. As the plaintiff did not appear at the trial the court granted the divorce on the husband's cross bill. Shot and Killed her Husband. San Francisco, April 13.���Mrs. Ada F. Werner, who shot and killed her husband last night, hae reco\ ered from her hysterical condition and is gathering her resources for the defence. Immediately after the arrest she talked volubly about the crime but today declined to say anything about the trouble which caused her to kill her husband. While the definite statement has been made by lier attorneys, it is understood that the defence will raise tho plea of insanity. Mrs. Werner's case was called iu tho police court this moruiug. The hearing was set for Wednesday next. M THE ELITE PHOTOS The only ground-floor studio in Nanaimo. Near the Opera House. The latest styles ot Photos���Caronas and Mantello.

As she did so a plug flew out, which attracted the woman's attention. Upon making an investigation she found it was au infernal machine and was evidently put there in hopes that she along with the house would be blown to pieces. The police have the infernal machine in their possession and are in hopes of accumulating enough e\ idence to connect it with some one. An Experimental Youth. Skattlk, Apiil IS - ThomasCodriok,aged 14, came very near being strangled to death in the basement of his parents' home at 712 Third street yesterday afternoon about 4 o'olock. Physicians worked over him for several hours before hope of recovery was entertained. Young Codrick, who attends the Central school, came home after the close ot exercises yesierday afternoon and for a time played about the house. He was cheerful and contented and had every reason to be so, for he was the idol of his parents and what money could purchase waB at his command. A short time before 4 o'clook Mrs. Codrick sent Thomas to the cellar for some wood. He did not return immediately and suddenly Mrs. Codriok was startled by a groan, coming, apparently, from the basement. She hastened below, and to her horror and amazement saw the body of her son suspended by the neck from a rafter. He was black iu the face, and to all appearances dead. This, however, only seemed to nerve the heroic w**man to exertions that would have been work for a man. How she did it would be h��rd for her to tell, but alone and unassisted she raised the body high enough to be able to untie the trunk- strap that was around the neck, then laid the body on the floor and ran for help.. Dr. S. J. Holmes, Dr. Hall and Dr. Berryhill responded to the calls for medioal skill, And they found before them a hard task indeed. At 7 o'clock the doctors had brought the boy around to that point where the chances of recovery were in hia favor. At 12 o'clock last night the boy regained consciousness and recognized his father and mother. He was able to speak for the time being, bnt in answer to questions said he did not remember anything about the hanging. PROVINCIAL CAPITAL. The Queen City's Current Happenings and Doings.

Members of the British Columbia lacrosse team returned from San Francisco this morning on the Umatilla, well pleased with their visit. They were kindly trea'ed by the Californians, and lacrosse will likely boom there in consequence of their vieit. J. E. Annstroi g, of Toronto, wbo is at present staying at the Dallas, starts at the end of the week on an extensive trading trip to the Peace River couutry in quest of furs. He goes from here to Ashci. ft. and then follows the Fr��ser River nor*h fully 300 miles, purchasing from the Iudians along the route. He expects to return by September. Mary Waller, the unhappy mother of the babe upon whose body a coroner's inquest was held on Wednesday, is still unable to leave her room. She is under the eye of the police, aod will when she has somewhat recovered her health be placed under arrest, this being the only course open to the police, in view of the facts elicited at the inquest. William Johnson, who in a fit of despondency attempted to hang himself on Wednesday evening, will be arraigned in the police court this morning, attempting to commit suicide being an indictable offence, and this being the third case of the kiud developing in Victoria within the past two months. The lad is bright and intelligent, and feels his position keenly, as do also his parents, who are residents of Victoria. Percy Whittal, a well-connected young Englishman,who has been living a decidedly fast life iu Victoria for the past two weeks, was arrested last evening by Acting Chief Walker upon a warieut charging him with obtaining money under false pretences. The prosecution was instituted by Mr. Robert Jamieson, from whom the accused is alleged to have procured $13 worth of theatre tickets upon* a check drawn on a looal hank, where, unfortunately, he had no account. A deputation of sealing men composed of Captain William Grant, F. Adams, Captain Hackett, William Munsie, Richard Hall, R. Seabrook, G. H. Brown and J. H. Stevenson; waited on the Premier yesterday in regard to the Behring Sea bill now before the Imperial Parliament. They urged that aa the sealing schooners had left before any law was made to carry out the regulations, the orders given by the owners to the captains were to continue sealing uutil warned and then to immediately make for the nearest port. The sealers felt it would be a hardship if these vessels should be detained before rectiving a warning to desist during the close seasou declared by the act ( day 1 to July 31). They wanted, therefore, to have it urged upon the Imperial Government that a warning should be given before detention nr seizutc of such vessels. Hon. Mr. Davie, after lieaiiug what the deputation had to say, promised that the Provincial Governmen- would take the matter under its consideration. The sealers later held a meeting of their own and sent a cablegram to Sir George Baden-Powell and T. G. Bowles, M, P., (the latter of whom according to the press dispatches, was yesterday to ask in the House whether the Canadian Government attached a compensation condition for Cauudial sealers), calling attentiou to the resolution of the Legislature passed in regard to compensation, and asking also that they should insist ou a warning being given sealers before seizure. Miner's Will Strike Again. Columbus, O., April 13���The National Miners' Convention yestorday afternoon resolved on a general strike on April 21, with another resolution authorizing the National executive oommittee to declare a similar suspension of work at any time during the year, if the first strike does not secure the tleBired effect.|Prosident McBride appointed a committee to report a scale of wage upon which 'he organization will stand in the light. It is almost certain that this will be an increase over t.hut of one year ago, when 70 cents per ton for straight milling in the Hockii'g Valley was made the basis, with the established differentials for all the different mining legions aud methods of mining. The basis will probably be 75 cents for the next year. The convention elected the following officers: Johu M:Bride, Ohio, President ; P. S. Panna, Pennsylvania, vice- president; P, A. McBride, Ohio, Secretary- Treasurer, it is claimed that in this st ike over 200,000 men will cease work and double that number in associated industries will be affected. The organization controls all the labor engaged iu mining bituminous ooal in the United States and covers the states of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas aud Colorado. The celebration of May Day will be taken in hand by the New Westminster Cily Band this year, and the fete will be carried out on the usual liberal scale, including a dance for the youngsters in the evening. Messrs. Geo. Wintemuto, T. Ackerman, M. Phillips and J. J. Cambridge will have charge of the collecting department, and citizens will be expected to contribute liberally. The seleotion of the May Queen will be made shortly. Any surplus left after all expenses have been met will be devoted to sending home to England a member of the band who was disabled by an acoident some time ago. The Campbell case was further adjourned by the New Westminster police magistrate for a week. > NANAIMO, ii. C��� SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1894. Cromwell and the Reform Club. Last night ��*���*���* lhe Co-operative Hall, Mr. Marchae' of Victoria read an essay on the life of Oliver Cromwell to an attenuaied audience. Mr. Keith, M P.P., occupied the chair. In introducing the reader, the chairnun gave a preliminary address on his own account, saying that he was g ad to be back among his friends in Nanaiino again after so long an absence. By way of illustration, Mr. Marchant compared the great Ironsideb with the Nanaimo Reform Club, saying: "Listen ye economical reformers, to the life of this great monarch (!) and when fortune favors you with the slightest opportunity, then shall ye go and do likewise. Bu' alas, ye have devoted your time and el. quence in the prosecution of unprofitable liliel suits." At the c'os-> of the reading a vote of thankB was proposed to the reader, which was duly seconded. In return Mr. Marchant thanked them and voted thanks also to the chairman. Mr. Keith seized the opportunity for another political essay. He gave his listeners to understand that he had been working very hard "down there," but that he wasn't a particle changed. In view of that statement it is difficult to see how Mr. Keith can consistently seek re-election. A politician is nothing if not progressive, consequently he must change somewhat or retrograde. How it Works Sometimes. One of the results of the proceedings for libel against this paper is the loss to one of the witnesses of one of his best customers. We refer now to Mr. James Young. The customer mentioned volunteered the information to Tun Telkoram yesterday. Mr. Young in his evidence led the Court to believe that all the parties he named as having accosted him as anarchist and ao on, did so immediately after the item complained of appeared. One of the mos^ prominent names he referred to waB Dr. Slogget. The docior said a day or so ago in conversation that the item complained of had escaped his notice and that he did not Bee it until brought, out in the proceedings in court. This goes to ahow how hard pressed the prosecution was for evidence. Although The Telegram haa not the honor of knowing Mr. Young, it has a great deal of sympathy for him under the circumstances. He has unwittingly been made a catspaw in this case by a couple of vain boys practically just out from school and who have seized regardless of everything, which most professional men at least would prize, what they believed to be a grand opportunity to bring them into that prominence in a few days which their merits would not otherwise give them in a thousand years. MAINLAND NEWS. Vancouver, April 13.���[Special.]���The Vancouver battery will be inspected by Col. PeteisonThu'sday. An Ottawa despatch announces that Smith Piper, of Fort William, has secured a divorce from his wife, Mary Ann McKenzie, now living in Vancouver. The man arrested t n the ferry for refusing to pay his fare was given two hours to leave New Westminster city, and left. If he returns he will lit "vaggod." Harry Dominy, printer, waa at New Westminster brought up under the Drunkards' Act aud was found to come under the provisions of the Act which declares him a drunkard and prohibits dealers from supplying him with drinks. Notice has been posted iu the saloons to that effect. The city solicitor of Vancouver has drawn up a petition from the city council to the Privy Council in England praying the latter to grant an appeal from the judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada in reference to the foreshore trouble with the C.P.R. In this case it will be remembered the point in dispute is as to the city's right to build a wharf at the end of Gore avenue, and traffic over the C.P.R. The case of B. F. Hahn, charged with misusing the mails at Vancouver, came to a conclusion with the dismissal nf the accused. The charge wns that Hahn registered a letter to Taobma, to a fast, woman, alleging it to contain $50. The woman sent back word that the letter contained no money, Hahan made an affidavit that it did and when the matter was taken hold of by the postal authorities Hahn rna.de it statement that there had been no money���with the intention he claims of putting a step to any further trouble over the matter. He wns then arrested on the charge of misusing the maila. The Tacoma prostitute was brought up and deposed that the letter when received was empty. It, was alleged to have been opened in the presence of two Tacoma postal clerks. They were brought up, but after interviewing them the prosecution did not put them in the box. The deienelent swore thit he had put the money in the letter as stated in his original deposition, and that the aecond statement, which waB not sworn to, waB made in the expectation that tho matter would then be dropped. Balancing his evidence against that of the sporting woman the magistrate decided to mismiBB the case. PROVINCIAL NEWS. BurglarB broke into C. T.

The action for libel brought by Michel against the Times frinting and Publishing Company, haB been dismissed for want of prosecution. The alleged libel was contained in an account cf the treatment a horse received at the hands of the plaintiff. The charge preferred by W. H. Steve�� against J. M. Donaldson, of feloniously stealing 90 chairs from the Steveaton Opera Houae, was called in the New Westminster district court before dptain Pittindrigh, and dismissed, plaintiff making no appearance. Mr. Donaldson states that he intends bringing a charge againBt Mr. Steves of false arrest. The shooting of W. J. Moggridge at Belle Meade farm.

THE SESSION. The session of the Provincial Legislature, which came to a close on \\ ednosday afternoon lust, was one of the most important and in some respects the most interesting ever held in British Columbia. The chief measure of the session was of course the Redistribution Bill. It seemed an exceedingly thorny subject to handle, but the way in which it was disposed of by the Government excited alike the surprise and admiration of their friends, and fairly confounded their enemies. The latter after vaporing over the matter for months in their press, and abusing the Government from Dan to Beersheba for not bringing forward the bili a year sooner before the results of the census were known with any proper degree of accuracy, had literally hardly a word to say when the bill was at last submitted. All they could do was make some frivolous objections, based chiefly on the fact that some constituencies were divided into ridings and others not. Never was so conspicuous a failure made by a prominent party in any Parliament as was made by the Opposition in the British Columbia Legislature in the debate on the Redistribution Bill. As for the great majority of the people of the Provinoe, they were delighted with the bill, and well pleased with the way the Government had drafted it. Numerous letters of congratulation from every part of tlie Province reached the hands of the Government, expressing this feeling. As for the Opposition, and especially the Independent branch of it which had allied itself with the Opposition proper, aban- ing all claim to the title of Independents, the popular feeling in regard to them after all their blustering wus one of contempt. The old Opposition was oontemplable enough, but their Independent allies, it was generally felt, had gained their seats on false pretenses. There was not a man of ability amongst them. AU they could do was to act the part of obstructives, and it must be confessed that in playing this unworthy part they were ably supported by Hon. Mr. Beaven and his followers. But if the combined force did anything more than waste time and obstruct public business, the province at large has yet to hear of* The Redistribution bill once disposed of there remained little besides the estimates to wrangle over. How successfully the Opposition did this, the all-night sitting in oonnection with the debate upon them amply testifies. The Opposition and their friends whispered that the session wonld witness some racy scandals, in whioh more than one minister would be involved. They did make an attempt to worry the Provincial Secretary but the result demonstrated, not corruption on his part, but the spitefulness, narrow-mindedness, and mali ginity of the Opposition. The Nakusp and Slooan railway is another instance, and in this matter the enquiry, very mnch to the ���disgust of the Opposition, will be conducted by a royal commission, not by the Opposition's favorite method of inuendo, lies, and slander. We pointed out in a recent issue, that not the Government only, but the Opposition and their methods will be on trial before the commission; and we err very much if the latter do not find, when all is over that it is not always a safe thing to play the part of whisperers and slanderers, willing to wound but afraid to strike. At any rate the public will admit that the part iB not a very manly one. For the rest, the Opposition's scandal campaign during the past session was a dead failure, a misera ble fizzle. Io spite of all obstruction and waste of public time.there was e considerable amount of legislative work accomplished during the session. The total number of bills passe and which have received the royal assent, is sixty-four. Ninety bills were introduced, but twenty-six of them were withdrawn. The Legislature opened on the 18th of January and sat for three months, less one week. The total number of dayB on which sittings were held was fifty-four. In his Bpeech from the throne when proroguing th* House the Lieutenant Governor thanked the members for the care and deliberation with which they discharged their duties, and dismissed them with his best wishes for their prosperity. We oannot do better than follow so good an example, and we are further at liberty, which the governor waB not, to express our gratification that there will be no further occasion for some time at least for the hon. members to exercise the care and deliberation for which his honor thanked them. Hon. Mr. Foster has announced in the House of Commons at Ottawa that the terminal point of the proposed fast Atlantic service will be in England, but connection will be made with a French port by a subsidiary line. Thk American Grape Sugar Works at Buffalo, N. Y., were destroyed by fire on Thursday evening. The loss is estimated at over one million dollars. A number of persons, it is reported, were killed. Several firemen also nre missing or injured. The Sun Fruncisco dispatch, under date April 12, says that a blocs of wood containing twelve copper tubes filled with fulminate of mercury were found that, morning by a Mrs John White. Mrs. White had put a piece in her stove, and finding it too large, took it to tiie yard and cut it. As she did so, a plug dew out, which attraoted l.er attention. Upon miking au investigation the fouud au internal machine, which was evidently put. there, in the hope that she ulong with the home would be blown lo pieces. It is not easy to real ze the wickedness of the person who would place in any one's wood pile a block of wood so prepared. The act was simply fiendish. The condition of the winter wheat in the Uuited States on the 1st of April, aa reported by the statistician of the department of agriculture,is 86.7 per cent, for the entire country. List year the average was 77.4. Iu 1892 it was 81.2, and 96.9 in 1891. This last was an unusually high average. The averages for the principal states are as follows: Kentucky, 83; Ohio, 90; Michigan, 83; Illinois, 87; Missouri, 88; Kansas, 72; Nebraska, 85; California, t>7. Very little damage has been done by the Hessian fly. In the Eastern, Northern,aud Northwestern states snow covering afforded protection in addition to mild temperature. The recent cold spell has done considerable damage,bul. itB amount is not fully determinable yet. In the Sooth Atlantic and Southern states, except Texas, the injury is marked. Freezing to the ground was quite prevalent,especially ou low and rich moist lands, but the roots appear to be left untouched, and favoruble weather may produce a great chance for tho better.

The International Medical Congress at Borne 'loes not seem to have done much for the advancement of science. The Eternal City has beeu crowded to over flowing. The hotels have been driving a roaring trade aud tourists, uo doubt, have doue well. But it has been a gieat excursion party rather than a oonfereooe for the exchange of new aud great ideas. The medicos themselves are not ovetsaiistied with their reception, iuto waich the money making spirit of the Italian had largely entered. The great red roBettes worn by the members of the congress did not aluuys fiauk them past barriers, aud the pi ices demanded for seats at'he shows were often exorbitant. The King, however, did h's best to be hospitable, setting, a good example to Royalty in oiher capitals. Theie was a eolo.-s -I garden party at the Quiriual, which, though attended by a strange mixture of people, was capitally doue. It was rather amusing to Bee some guests clamoring for paper from the Royal footmen to Wrap up bon-bons which tiiey were carrying away from the buffets. Another official reception and illumination of the capital waB nol quite bo successful, except as a spectacle. Six Ihuusaud invitations were issued, although . here was barely accommodation for '2,000, aud the througjWaa bo great that very tew guests got into the mu-euma. Those who did, indeed, had great difficulty in getting out again, while the buffets, which were plentifully supplied, were almost carried by assault.

LOTS LATEST FROM KASLO: (Extract from "Colonist," April 13.) m The deputation of Kaslo citizens and civic officials who arrived in the city Beveral daya ago with the objeot of interviewing the Government in respect to the Kaslo and Slocan railway���asking that it be put on as favorable footing as the Nakusp and Slocan���returned home this morning, evidently satisfied with the outcome of their interviews with Premier Davie and his colleagues. The members of the deputation were muoh pleased with their courteous reception and the distinct disposition shown by the Government to deal fairly and squarely with them. The amendment to the Railway Companies' Act, introduced by the Government and which has just become law, ia pronounced entirely satisfactory, and construction will now proceed at once. When the delegates left Kaslo the people there were waiting for the assurance that the railway was a "sure go" ; now that they have received the welcome news, the burnt district will be immediately rebuilt, much finer structures in every way replacing those destroyed by the fire of a few weeks ago.
