behalf of the defendant this morning and District Dis-trict Attorney Elchnor will then make the final argument for the State The closing days of the trial arc being largely attended Yesterday the courtroom court-room was filled to overflowing There was the throng of morbidly curious while many of those In attendance were attorneys and students who came to hear the final arguments POWERS CRITICISED Judge King began his address to the jury an hour before the clone of the forenoon session Attorney Truman having finished his plea Judge Kings address was strong and eloquent and held the closest attention of every person per-son In the room In the beginning he took occasion to deliver a scorching roast to Judge Powers for his position He In helping proaecuto the case made light o Judge Powcrss assertion that he had been summoned Into court from an opon grave CLAIMS JUSTIFICATION The speaker followed with a review of the testimony In the case commenting com-menting upon each portion In a way to show the forces of the defense to the best advantage To the libertine and delllcr of homes he paid particular attention and declared that no American Ameri-can Jury will ever convict n man for Hlaughtering the seducer of his wife From the evidence It was plain that Clyde Ellison had every reason to believe be-lieve that his home had been ruined Judge King stated The knowledge was enough to drive him out of his mind and to seek the life of the man who had occasioned his grief ELLISONS CONDITION said Mr Tanner in closing his argument I saidYou have seen this boy frail In body not strong In mind upon the stand and you can Judge for yourselves the soundness of his mind He has had these constitutional hereditary derangements and headaches head-aches from the time nearly that he was born We have produced Iuf clent testimony here to show you the Insanity of his ancestors and have proved beyond a doubt that there Is insanity In the family and that it Is hereditary In this boy Justification stands no higher In defenses than others and In this case there are two both strong Justification Justifica-tion and Insanity ton WIFE OF DEFENDANT Referring to 1lS Ellison Mr Truman Tru-man said I am sorry that Judge Powers charged us with attempting to Injure the character of the wife of defendant We dont mean to hurt her I Just call your attention to her conduct during dur-ing this trial There she sat acting as assistant district attorney and telling the District Attorney all of the Incidents dents upon which he based the cross examination of this defendant which fell so flat I will let you judge her aa she sat there laughing glad when a point was brought out against her husband You can Judge her for yourselves your-selves SUMMONS FROM GRAVE Judge Powers said he was here in answer to l aummonH from the open grave Said Judge King In referring to Judge Powerss argument You do not believe that story I do not believe be-lieve it He Is summoned here by the dirty dollars of the deceaseds estate accumulated In the undertaking busi nccumu1nted ness and pawnbroking on the side Judge Powers demands blood he demands de-mands murder In the first degree he wants blood he wants this boy shot down or to see his hideous form dangling from a scaffold I Is a serious thing to take a human hu-man life What would be gained by erecting a gallows In this State and hanging Clyde Ellison until he was dead Judge Powers said nothing of murder In the second degree of manslaughter He only wanted murder In the first degree but I say that l man who can not reason who hasnt malice In his heart or who does not malce premeditate the act can not be guilty of murder In the first degree The mere taking of a life dpes not necessarily neces-sarily mean murder in the first degree JUSTIFICATION PLEA My learned friend Judge Powers and there is none more eloquent than he none more eloquent in pleading In criminal ca e8he knew that you were in sympathy with that law which Justifies Jus-tifies the taking of life when the mother wife sister or daughter has been defiled or n defilement has been attempted I say damn these voluptuous volup-tuous libertines with their slimy ways slipping Into our homes and defiling the wife of an honest man The civilization of any country Is measured by i the virtue of Us citizens No American Jury Is over going to convict con-vict a man O the killing of his wlfos seducer and for that reason I eel confident con-fident that this defendant will bo acquitted ac-quitted REFERENCE TO MILLS CASE jI was In this very courtroom I believe be-lieve that Judge Powers difended ex LleutGov Mills of Idaho who had killed the seducer of his wife and he introduced the defense In that case of justification and Insanity and he did not think them inconsistent and if he were defending this boy he would make you rise In your seats he would make these dumb benches plead In the boys behalf ho would have the stones In the street crying out to you to acquit thiRd thiR-d Ccn nt of the charge made against him Judge King will resume hlo argument argu-ment this morning and when he concludes con-cludes District Attorney Elchnor will make State the closing argument for the |
