Scene in Which Roscoa Conk.
ling Fignres.
Trenton ( N. J. ) Herald ,
Seldom has there been heard a more
interesting examination of witnesses than
that made today in the case of Wm , D.
Diusmoro , asking for a preliminary injunction -
junction against the Central railroad of
Now Jersey , to restrain the Philadelphia
d ] Reading railroad from obtaining control -
trol of time franchises of the former -
mer corporation. Mr. Roscoe Conk-
ling displayed all the cutting sa
tire and exasperating manner of inquiry -
quiry in his examination of the principal
witness of which he is capable. Edwin
H. Faulkner , whose examination in New
York was interrupted yesterday , wasfirat
laced upon the stand Mr. Coiikhng
began the attack at once. The witness
insisting u on adding an explanation to
his anser a which brought forth from
the great , lawyer the remark :
"Will you be good enough not to start
off attaiunless you can hold your.
self iii"
"I want to toll you all ; you can have
the whole truth if you want nt.
"Front youl"
"From you ? "
"Yes ; 1 want to tell the whole truth. "
Mr. Gowen asked that the teasing of
witnesses be stopped , and Judge Dixon
was sent for to protect the witnesses from
the insults of the counsel.
Conklin blandly begged the clerk to
overlook those outbursts on the art of
the eounsel on the other side , "The
are aroxysrns duo to internal disorders
over which he has no control , "
Gowen insisted on his motion ; he had
never hoard such opprobrious epithets
applied to a witnesses any court as the
counsel doli'htod to heap upon the
noseea in this cane ,
"Did y'ou say opprobrious , or appro.
priate" interrupted Conklin .
Judge Dixon was in he room , and
Cowoli appealed to hin in
the of the fession and the law
to protect the witness from the violent
brutal and outrageous abuse of the eoun-
sal on the other side.
Juclgo'Dixon was called from the room
for afew minutes , andwhile ho was gone
the men glared at one another in silence.
\Vhen he retusnod he said : "Mr. Examiner -
aminer , what is the trouble now ? "
After the clerk hind stated the case ,
Conkling declared that the foul mouthed
assertions of the counsel on the othorside
were entirely unsuetainod by anything
which hitnsolf or his associates had said
to time witness , lie outlined Faulkner's
testimony on direct examination , and lie
declared that lie proposed 'on the crose
oxaminnUon , out of his own mouth , to
convict him of either being a blackmailer
or a lunatic , "This may be brutal , but it
is the purpose of m question , and I pro.
pose to state it fully to your Honor. I
ell deem myself mat fortunate if your
Honor will remaid and listen to the
questions and answers ,
After totturing Faulkner for nearly
throe hours and until the man was in a
state bordering on frenzy , Conkling said :
" 1VdU , Mr , Witness , I think I'll let
you go , by a large majority. "
Gowen then began a redirect exami
nation. As lie was aslimme a question ,
Conkling , who sat some astano from
Faultier , said in a low tone , referring to
the witless , "That man is a scoundrel. "
Guwen overheard time remark , and
turning quickly to the stenographer , exclaimed
claimed "Put that down-he called the
witness a damned scoundrel. "
Cenkling coolly replied , "No one would
repeat a side remark made under such
circumstances except a blackguard , "
Then you are the blackguard , "
shouted Gowon , angrily , Conkling
sprang to his feet , his face flushing an.
gnly , and said { "I made the remark to
another person , in a low tone of voice ;
no gentleman would repeat such a thing
unless ho forgot hhf ± , beit , "
Cowen stood up , his beardless face
working with passion. The audience became -
came excited , and pressed forward to
the railing. ors rose to their
feet and bent forward to watch. Beside
Conkling was Seward , half out of his
chair , a lock of his long hair hanging
over his forehead , Secretary Roboson's
fiery face was thrust forward excitedly
between the combatants. Little Koer
Cher , squeezed between Gowen and the
big table , smiled nervously , and pulled
hie mustache ,
"I am perfectly willing , " shouted
Gowen , to be assailed for protecting a
deafgentleman like time witness from the
outran o imposed upon him by the coup
ael. It was the part of human nature to
do so. I fool proud to have done it , "
Time audience applauded the sound of
his voice , as the words could scarcely be
distinguished in time confusion.
"They're going to figltt , shouted someone
ono , pointing to the two men , who were
glaring into each other's faces ,
"If this disorder is repeated the ofilcer

Oliphant , "Proceed wit ? , the examilia-

When quiet reigned again the witness
continued his long stories intended to
explain away the facts brought out by

ended Conkling wont at him and succeeded -

in important particulars , Gowon asked
a few more questions , and finally , at

Jay Goull's Mausoleum ,
from rho Cinclnnotl Commercial Garotte.
NrwYorK , Nov. 4.-The Gould mausoleum -
soleum in Woodlawn cemetery is so far
on the way to completion that on Thura-
day last the foal roof slab was set in
lace. Work on the interior decoration
has begun. The structure is impressive
b reason of its simplicity , harmony of
doosi h and massivenss. ts form is hat
of an Ionic tamale raised on n platform
three stops above the level of the sward
surrounding it. The workmen sec that
the foundaion of the platform is a mass
of concrete that maks it practically a
single steno 8 feet in thickness b 36 r
more in leneth and 28 in width. . The
structure is wholly of finely hammered
Westerly'granita , without a single band or
panel or other surface that is polished ,
Thirty graceful columns 11 feet high by
13 inches in diameter surround the mausoleum -
soleum and add to the support of its mm-
live root.
Space for 20 bodies is afforded within.
In the front of the tomb will be a bronz
ed door of Grecian design , pierced et. as
to afford a view of the interior. A window -
dow representing a choir of angels will
occupy the apace now left in the rear
wall. It is understood that the inner
walls will beef delicatelyshaded marbles ,
arranged so as to present simple and
pleasing effects. No brick or metal is
employed , m the construction of'the tomb ,
excepting the bronze 'doors and the necessary -
ossary lead in the window. It stands in
the center of a circular plat of three or
four acres , on the highest ground in the
cemetry , in Lawn avenue , near Central
avenue , and is , surrounded only by grass ,
not a single tre or shrub asyot rising on ,
this ground.

A Close Shave.
Las Vegas Gartttc.
A miner in the hills near Socorro , New
Mexico , madea lucky strike in a wonderful -
ful manner lately. Two weeks agowhile
tramping over the rocks , the prospector
suddenly discovered that his harvesack
was on fire , caught probably from the
condensation Sf the sun's ray. by a pros-
pector's glass'which lie carried in his kit.
Now that harversack contained about six
pounds of blasting powder , and our hero
dropped the bundle and got out of the
reach as soon as his legs would carry him.
The bundle of caps fell into a crevice in
the rocks , and the powder soon exploded.
The prospector returned mournfully to
gather'up ' such of his effects as were Uninjured -
injured by the explosion , when something -
thing in the appearance of the s.attoled
rock struck his eye and he examined it
closoly-.it was horn silver. The now jubi
bilant miner located a claim at oncowhich
he called "Closo Shave , " and in less than
a week disposed of one third of Iuia inter.
oat at $13,000. The name of the honest
son of the pick and shovel is John Quincy
Adams , and ho hails from western Ohio.
John is well-known in Sonoraoountyand (
receives the congratulations of his friends
in a modest manner. John Adams' "close
slave" is a byword now in the mining
camps.
.Voman Suffrage in Vermont.
St. Louie Republican.
In Vermont women have been accorded
a limited right of suffrage for three years ,
the law of 1880 giving tofemales who pay
taxes the privilege of voting at school
elections and of holding school offices.
But the law isncarlyadeadletterthrough
the indifference of thou who wore intent -
t ed to be its beneficiaries , the women of
ermont being as averse to voting at
school elections as those of Boston are.
In the city' of Burlington , which is the
centre of intelligence , public spirit and
progressive ideas in time states there
wore only sixteen female votes
East at the first school election under the
lawat the second only flvo andpt the third
only eight-a signal proofof the apathy
of the Vermont women in the appreciation -
tion and exercise of a right extended to
them after long years of agitation and
struggle. Burlington is only an example
for the State , lusonic of the larger towns
for a few women appear at the polls but
the great majority them care nothing
about voting. Of 241 town in time State
twenty have , this year , chosen women
chiefly clergymen's wives , superintend.
ants f schools , but this as been done
chiefly by male aters a proof of time wil
lingnesa of the stronger sex to facilitate
and encourage the entrance of females
into the political field. Suffrage agitators
from Massachusetts have attempted by
meetings and sQooclmes in various
parts of the btate to rouse the
women to an appreciation of
their now dignity and duty , butthe effort
is said to be a complete failure. It is
asserted that in 1V , min territory ,
where female sufc a prevails , the
to be found there make n business
of voting an so they do , too , in Utah ,
tvbon they have special reasons for
throwing teir ballots in favor of 1 ga
my , but the experiments in older
mmttiea certainly do not indicate that
the gentler sex ae enamored of the new
right.
