THE EMMA BOND CASE.
H11LsBoRo, ILL.,, Dec. 19.-The argu-
ments were continued all morning on the
motion made last evening by the defense.
They were dry, and altogether on the law
of the case. At the close the oaurt ad.
10 rned.
In the Resembling of the court, Judge
Phillips delivered his opinion on the mo-
tons of the defenses. He held it was not
apparent from the evidence that Mont
gomery had made the confessions to
Swick and Heinlein because of threats of
| a mob, or that he was terrorized, or was
under the influence of fear. The motion
was therefore overuled. AS to the second
motion, If the court interpreted any par
ticular evidence it robs the jury of
the right to sit up3n the case, and prac-
tically gives the case to the defendants
The court can allow the evidence to go to
the jury and instruct the jury how to act
upon it. If the court decided in favor of
the motion, the defendants could never
again be prosecuted for this crime. Mo
ton overruled. The defense then moved
that Charles Masters, one of Miss Bonds
scholars, who was at the school house the
afternoon of the outrage, be placed on the
stand by the prosecution, in order to give
the defense an opportunity to cross
examine him. The prosecution declined
to do this and an argument commenced.
| The testimony for the defense opened
with VIM. Clannsene, who testified that he
was at the schoolhouse the day after the
outrage. He saw the cutting in tie gable
end of the loft, and he saw a small
| piece of wood that could be cut
from the weather boarding, lying on the
| ground outside of the house. Hiram s .
| Montgomery, cousin of John G. Mont
| gomery, one of the defendants, stated he
was at the school house the day after the
alleged rape. Saw John G. Montgomery
cut piece of wood out of a hole in the
gable end of the house He
used his right hand in doing it.
W. 9. Montgomery, another cousin, testi.
| fed to the same thing. Geo. Miller testi-
fed, he was at Jushia Shelb's the night
| after the outrage. Crowl and Monteom-
cry were there. The latter asked the wit
ness if CLEMENT had implicated him in
the affair, witness answered, "no." He
| did not hear Montgomery
say, if they had let him alone
he would have told some
thing. Did not hear him say
anything about Swiek and Heinlein. Was
not out of hearing distance at any time.
Gould not have been over ten feet apart.
| Saw Clement at Blue Mound, the same day
before his arrest. Clement has sent a
telegram to Mr.. Bond at Taylorville stat
ing the men had been seen there the night
before who answered the description given
| of Miss Bonds sssailants, and thought
they went west on a freight train.
