ailed Lady Miles , when u ladv , .seemingly
If ly , wearing a rich , blae k silk robe , pro-
liscly trlmmoa vUth otter , entered thu wit
ness box. She at first sociued acltated , but
soon testified with clearness , and In decisive ,
dramatic tones. She is the daughter of
that Sir David Hoche whom many Irish-
Americans from Limerick mij remember
as member ot parliament for that city during
tlic most of O'ConncH's agitation. She Is the
wife f a military bironet , recently o lory
member ( if paillament. Her testimony was
icmarkalilo Indeed A life-long friend of
Lid v Colin's family , she seems to havobc-
como , soon alien know ing the duke's son , ex
ceedingly friendly with Lord Colin. She
turned hur nngnificont , high court
residence. near Bristol , u show
place. Into a hospital for him.
bho testified that Lord Colin was novcr with
out on attendant hospital nurse to cue foi
ids health. Lettei s between herself and my
lord vv cio produced In which site addressed
him as "My Dear Coca. " and signed her elf
"Mn//io , " which a humorous London 10-
uoitor near mo whispered ou lit to icad
"Mtissie. "
A Kl'MINMM : OU-llKTVVni V.
She witnessed , by a trick , one ol'mj lotd's
inlidelltics. She never told his w Ho ol this
until itftci the lines ot btttlo weio torniod
with the husband. Site volunteered lobe the
go between for the couple. In the box she
suggested a feminine PecksnllT. At times
she seemed to have boon forget ! ill of her
oaily friendship for Lady Colin In
hoi anxiety to servo the husband.
Except for her mutual friendship the
case at the bar would never have come on.
Shu alone muddled Hie water In which fie
lavvjers lishcd. One of Loid Colin's solici
tors said this afternoon that her cross-exam
ination by Ftnlay would be as ineielless as
Matthews' was ot Dilke. Hesldes , her
veracity is to be challenged by tlio house
maid's oath in denial. 1 l.incy the dobs-
examlnatlon vviildestioj Iiei stoiy ,
A "vitv/.u : " i.iiTiit. :
The Inconsistency of hci mutual friend
ship can bo best judged by the following ex
tract fiom one of Lady Miles' "Mu/ie' let
ters to "Deal Coca : "
" 1 think she ( meaning Lidy Colin ) ins
no light to do any thing In your house. She
never had any bialns and is acting most un-
vvlselj' for her own icputatlon , 1 now think
dear Coca , that jou will bu much happier
when all tills business is at an end and jou
no longer live with a woman who told jou
before hei whole family that she pretoired a
loen othei men to von. Gertrude thinks
iciselt veiy much aggtloved. bho is a cold

A UISAOISII.MINT : I'ltonAiii.n.
Many lavvjers who heard tlie opening
Mieceli and Ladj Miles' testimony , so fai as
"l has gone , agice aliead > that theie is the
greatest probaullitj' , whatever the testimony
maybe , in it tlio juiors will dlsagiee , some
v otlng lor tlio noble lot d and some for the in
jured lady.
As I conclude this dispatch hundreds of
ncvvsbojsare jelling "special" in all the

Cable bjieclal to the Hii.J : A domestic
drama vvitli a tragic ending Is making a
great stir throughout tlio grand duchy. The
dramatis personae arc a wealthy Mannheim
banker , Ids wife , and a fashion-going
lieutenant of diagoons , named Sithlohl , well
known and a great l.ivoritu in
German spoiling ciicles. Tlio banker ,
a mooilj' , preoccupied mm , had
lattcilv lett his wife a gieat deal

her isolation tedious , and when the lieuten
ant olforod to act as hci cav aller servant she
did not offer any vuiy xiolent objection.
Malicious minors soon began to link the

husbr.ml saw no harm In their riding and
driving about together , people caiiio to tlio
conclusion that minor had again piovcd a

Nevertheless the banker's suspicions were

bollovlng ho had boon betrajed , sent tlio
lieutenant a challenge. A regimental jtny

The dual was fought j'ostordaj in a wood

of his seconds. The husband came on tlio
hold wearing thoiiiiifoim of his old t'hlan
