In the lord chief justice's room , ttiucaso of Adams v.s Coleridge being on trial , that dignitary modestly sat as a client amid a full b.ir , nnd subsequently cn- tcicd thu witness box to be acrimoniously cross-examined by tlio plaintiff , his son-in- law nnd deadliest enemy. Coleildgo follows Ills own daughter , who was called last Satur day as a witness against her father. The case , said tliu ( pieon's counsel , lies In A MOL'MIV N'l'TSIir.t.r. . Tlio plaintiff complains that certain letters and documents were llbcldus. These , be fore ho brought the suit and published them to the whole world , were known only to him and the Colcrldges , lather and son , and to two solicitors. The lord chief justice testi fied that ho left these alleged libels with his solicitor as privileged documents. The latter Inadvertently sent them to the arbitrator on family differences who , since dead , Im mediately returned them as Irrelevant. Colcrld&o nnd his solicitor both declare that the former had no knowledge of tlio alleged publication to the arbitrator , and tlio plaintiff was so In formed before tlio stilt. "I look , " concluded the queen's counsel , "for a verdict In favor of Coleridge , on the ground of privilege or ab sence or Intent of malice. " Then ho added what the whole bar nnd press think , as well as his opinion of the plaintiff , which It would bo llbelous to repeat. TAKI.VO IT COOL. I saw Coleridge step Into the witness box , looking as cool and placid as when on the stage at tlio Academy or Music In Now York three years ago at thu bar leccptlon. Ills manner , judge and counsel necessarily com pelling him to rattle his own family skeleton that his daughter and son-in-law had forced out of Its closet , was , however , Infinitely sad. His dignified testimony evidently had great weight with thu jurors , as 1 judged from tlielr bearing. I'ho trial will doubtless end on Thursday. _ _ AHI5ISSTKI ) HUT INNOCENT.

As ho opened the door of the dining room behind the shop wo noticed n terrible smell that seemed to come from the cupboard. The commissary opened the doors of the cupboard , and wo found the dead body of an old lady resting upon n fchclf. The body was dressed In tlio latest fashion , with a corsaso of embroidered jot beads , n gold eye glass and chain about the neck , and a valonclcnncs lace cap on the head , with violet ribbons. Tlio hands were ctossed on the breast and the eyes were open with n ghastly stare. In the cupboard also was a small stove full of ashes nnd the embers of coal and wood. Till : IMIlSU.VKIl'S RTOItr.

The llurko- Dempsey glove light , which occurred hero this evening , six rounds , was even n more interesting event than the recent meeting between Sullivan and Ryan. As early as 4iO : ! this afternoon the street in front of the pavilllon was tilled with candidates for ad mission , and at tlio crowd was largo enough to lilt tlio building. The number present was fully S.OOO. The receipts were 810,500. Tlio contest was ten rounds ( Jtieens- bury rules , small soft gloves , winner to take 75 and the loser 25 per cent. JJurke's weigh was l&l and Dempsoy's 15 $ pounds. At 15:30 the men entered the ring. There was diffi culty In liudiug a referee and It was after eleven when Frank Crockett for Burke and Jack Ilolligan for Dempsey were chosen. The men came to the scratch promptly. Dempsey touckeit ISurkc In the ribs and the men became wary In the second round Dcmpsoy landed his left twice on liurke's stomach. 'Ibo men clinched but broke away , and liurko got in two right-handers on Dempsey's mouth , then a terriilc left-hander on the neck , following It with another on Dempsoy's rlb.s. The third and fourth rounds were unevent ful until In tlio latter Dempsey was forced against the ropes. .Doiiipsoy opened the fifth with a vicious left-hander nt Burko's stomach , which missed , and the round closed with nobody hurt.

Dempsey rctellated on Burke/a mouth and bellows , but received : i heavy ouo on thu close of the round on his jaw. In the seventh round the men sparred warily for wind. From tlio beginning of the eighth round Ilnrko forced the lighting , but honors were still even at the close of the round. Toward the und of thu ninth round Kurko took the offensive and tliu fighting became heavy and close , botli men receiving some bard knocks. In the tenth round Dempsey led short and was caught with another right-hander on tlio neck.

Tlio men , on time being called , retired to their corners , Uurko taking off his gloves , while Dempsey remained seated. Uurke cried out that the match was for ten rounds , and as they had been fought the match was over. This view of the situation prevailed , and thu referees , being unable to decide the match , declared it n draw. McCaffrey Knocks Golden Out. New Yonic , Nov. 24-1.

A Capital Cllv I'apcr Publishes nn Interview AVIth Him on the Situa tion In Nebraska A Contest l-'ioin Indiana. McDonald tlic Center of Attraction W.viiHNcn-oN. Nov. 2-2. [ Special Telegram to the lint : . I Ex-Senator Joseph E. McDon ald , of Indiana , has never attracted so much attention In Washington as upon his present trip. His olllce. has been thiongcd ail day by admiring friends inquiring about the.situ ation In his state and askluc for his "real honest Joe" opinion as lo who will bo elected United States senator to succeed General Harrison. Patiently , but witli precise repe tition , tlio ex-senator has given his opinion to all , which Is recorded in n half column in terview In this evening's Star mid headed thus : "A Veteran Democrat's Views. Ex- Senator McDonald talks about tlio situation In Indiana and the political outlook In gen- eral. The llooslcr state muddle The demo crats may break up the legislature The pres ident's order hurt * the party How about ISSb' . " ' After claiming a nominal majority of one on joint ballot of the legislature and reciting the contexts of scats which have been tiled , Mr. McDonald says there Is no way to prevent the republicans from obtaining a majority by turning two demo crats out except by the breaking up of the legislature , and tills can only bo done by res ignations. This , he says , the democrats may do if tlio republicans unseat the democrats unjustly , merely because they have the power to do so. It requires two-thirds of both houses to make a quorum to elect a sen ator , and if the democrats retired tliero would bo no legislature , is tlio way ho looks at It. If , however , the republicans get control tliero will bo no opposition to General Harrison In Ids opinion , although ho observes , en passant , tli.it "Governor Porter would not object to being a candidate. " Mr. McDonald very frankly admits that the result in Indiana was not satisfactory to him. Ho thinks the dem ocrats have n eld their usual majority , that the result was d no to a deslro among demo crats to settle old scores with each other , and that tlio pr esident's order for federal ofliclals to have nothing to do with politics hurt the party. Ho says it may have been a good enough thing , but that it hurt the party pretty badly. He predicts the rcnomination of Cleveland and the renomlnation of Ulaine by tlie republicans , but says if George should come into tlie combination ho will draw more largely from republicans than democrats. "It tlie republicans should nominate Ulaine , " savs Mr. McDonald in closing , "Cleveland will carry Massachusetts and probably Xew Hampshire and Michigan. " SENATOIt VAN WYCK AT THE ( . 'AP1TAT , This evening's Star says : Senator Van Wyck and family arrived in tlio city last night and arc comfortably established at their residence on Massachusetts avenue. A reporter called upon the senator to-night and found him in a cheerful frame of mind. Speaking ot ilio recent contest lu his state , ho said it was veiy animated and tliero were some unusual features about it. The state constitution contains a clause which author izes a direct vote of the people upon the ques tion of a choice to the United States scnato , but that the provision had never been put In practice. Senator Van Wyek , believing that tlio people favored his re-election , nnd Being willing to submit Ills claims to the arbitrament , demanded that the constitutional provision bo enforced. The demand was violently opposed in many quarters , and it was next to impossible to have the question fairly submitted , as tlio governor would not or did not Issue a pro clamation calling for a vote upon tlio senator- ship. By diligent work Mr. Van Wyck's friends procured n submission or the quos lion In some portions of tlio state , and out of a total vote of near 50,000 on the sonatorchlp Mr. Van Wyck got about 40,000. The oppo nents of thu policy of submitting tlio senator- ship to a vote of the people maintained that it wns unlawful because a statute pro hibited printed changes on regular ballots , but despite all this opposition about .10,000 out of a total of I''S.COO voted on tlio botiatotial question. "Hut how do you stand , senator'.1" asked the reporter. "Well , lleavo It to my friends , " wns tlie reply , "and they feel hopeful. The legisla ture will consist of ninety-six republicans and thirty-seven democrats. .Really It is too early to tell just how the vote will be divided. Tlie people have spoken , notwithstanding the many obstacles Interposed , and It remains to bo seen what the legislature will do. " Senator Van Wyck made Ills light through out on a basis of uncompromising hostility to monopolies. He claims that Nebraska has been bound down by corporate power and that there is no mistaking the sentiment of. the people on this question. Tin : INDIANA CONTKST. Representative Lowry , of the Fort Wayne , Ind. , district , who was defeated by such an overwhelming majority on the mound that ho was opposed to civil service rclorm and tried to inlluonco his officeholders' 'In the "exercise of their political rights , promises to Institute an interesting contest of his opponent's seat. The democratic majority in that district with n popular man in the race on that ticket would have been over 8OCO. Captain While , the straight republican , with no fusion alli ance , was elected by a vote reaching between 2,000 and ii.OOO above Lowry. Thu regular majority was simply reversed. Onu of Lowrv's workers has just arrived hero from Fort Wayne and says preparations are being made to conduct ono of tlm most determined and interesting contests that was ever made of a congressional scat. The grounds of contest are in the fact that White did not receive his naturalisation papers till a few days heforo the election , whereas the constitution requires that before lie can lill the position to which he is elected hu should have been a citizen ot the United States for seven years. It u.t White will show that ho has been a oiti/en in fact of the United States more than a score of years ; that ho was a union soldier , and entered Ills declaratory for bo- comlne n citizen twenty years ago , although ho did not ask for ills papers till a few days before the election , when they were Issued. The question arises , Is the certificate of citi zenship a necessary adjunct to proof of citi zenship ? The best lawycis hero say jiot , any more than the certllicate of marriage Is a pro-requisite to proof of marriage. The fact that man and woman have passed as husband and wife ( brought a long period of years , without question , is said to be ( lie same iiroot of marriage as the declaratory of White in be come , a citizen , his service for tlio govern ment in tlm war and Ids exercise of fran chise at the polls will be to Ids cltl/enshlp. Those , they say , not the certllicate , proves citizenship , just Ilko tlio credit on the bank ledger proves the deposit , Instead of tlm llttlo credit book which Is issued. The case will bo an Interesting one. "NO AlLMIlTANCK IIXCKI'T ON lll'SINKSS.

It was generally accepted as an Indication that the chief exec utive did not wish to assumethu risk of being personally in dnnuerhy taking his evening and morning walks in the grounds adjacent to his house when tlio public could be about him. It Is very seldom , however , at this sea son of tlm year , that people are scon around the white house inside tlie grounds after.1) o'clock in the afternoon nnd before 9 o'clock in the morning , nnd the visitors were never known to be so murderous within those liouis as to b in any degree an annoyance. True , tlioso who do come around during those , hours illicit look with some curiosity at tile president ami his wife , and that curi osity might annoy them. Consideration for the lady ot the lauilly Is thu only rational excuse jriven , it seems , lor closing ilio gates , Mr. Cleveland has been Been'less on ilio thoroughfares and I * seen Ie > s by the public nt any place , except the theatre , than any president for very many ytars , This order closing the entrances to the white house Grounds during the hours In which ho takes his exercise , and the fact that he basic- malned so closely In-dooni arc nut together and people are saving that ho has kept him self trom public vluw because he apprehended personal danger. SAM COX'S DEllUT. The schemers are saying Hint Sunset Cox will bo chairman of "tlio house commit tee on ways and means ; that ho presents the undoubted popular Idea of the party about tariff reform , and can cottte nearer ( 'citing through a bill on the subject than nny other man , Mr. Mills , of Texas ) stands next to the highest on tlio committee now , has been reelected - elected , Is a free trader of the Morrison type , nnd Is known to ho n favorite of Speaker Carlisle : but Mr. Mills would be as unsuc cessful as was Mr. Morrison in reforming the tariff , as their views and methods aru almost identical.

Friends of ex-Sneaker Randall say Speaker Carlisle had an object sellish in realizing his opinion first expressed as to the pait tariff 10- form played In the recent elections. The speaker was at tirst Inclined to think tariff reform had worked aalnst tliu democratic ticket.

Whllo Messrs. Clrlislcand Randall are very friendly , It is n [ notorious fact that the former would rather sco a thousand men president than the latter , so ho withdrew his statement. Then , too , the speaker Is said to believe that there n great many more improb able things than that the style of the next democratic ticket will bo .Cleveland and Car lisle nn alliteration which would bring the two sections of country together and combine statesmanship of a verv versatile character.

Ills that that gives' rl.so to such a rumor as the abovo. This was nil that the dynamite chieftain hnd to say on the subject , anil no amount ot ' questioning would Induce him to tell any thing further. Brief as was Kossa's com ment , Its tonu was .slgnllieant.Yhilo thu mcmbcis of the Irish National league In this city were not Inclined to talk about Davllt or his alfalrs , a fair Idea of tlio trouble was , however , gleaned fiom other and rellablu sources. According to tills story It seem * that Davltt , when ho denounced the Phomlx Park ( Dublin ) "removals" four years ago. ho became Involved with lormer friends. Since tlien the cup has been widening and the suspicion has gene forth that ho could not be relied upon , nnd that he had become mys teriously wealthy. These stories , whether truoorfal.se , had a bad effect , and In the western country , where they were widely circulated , Davltt , during his present trip , lias been badly received In sovoial places. The circulation of the story , which found Its way into the newspapers , stating that ho was constantly shadowed by English detectives , who were taking notes ot his speeches , ostensibly to use against him when he returned to Ireland , has been looked upon as a sort of deception. These and other llttlo circumstances which have found thelc way into print , have , tended to create u feel ing of a serious nature against Davitt. Then It was remarked that ho had become a more pronounced advocate of parliamentary methods than Parnoll , and this wan certainly a strange thins for a man who had alwavs before been looked upon as an ex tremist. Willie Davitt was love-making at Oakland , Cut. , and was capturing the heart of an heiress , he did not offend anyone , but when he mounted the lecture plaU'oiin anil denounced tlio deeds of desperation , on more than one occasion ho was hissed. At Helena , Mont. , quite recently , ho came near being mobDcd , and In Nebraska the trouble was nirgravatod. In Irishspapcrs communications couched In such violent language as this have ap peared : "Isn't It too bad how these trick sters our treating our poor people. 1 mean Parncll , Davltt , etc. , and the parliamo ntary traitors. Now , the people of Ireland have ) got to either starve or liulil. and our consti tution traitors have spent all the money In London that should have bought corn meal to keep the people alive. Still the traitors want more. Kinerty missed a good chance to rise on the ladder of fame. If he had got Davitt , Redmond & Co. taned and feathered in Chicago , and at thu same time declared' the sentiments of the Irish-American people. lie would lie the Washington of Ireland and would Itavc u monument to his memory.
