Final Speech of the Prosecution--A Verde

Final speech of the Prosecution-A verdict
of Acqmttal.
st. Louis, September Ga Post
Dispatch Galatin special says a large
audience heard Prosecuting Attorney
Wallace close for the state in the
Frank James trial to-day. Wallace
said the question was, lis the arm of
law or the arm of the bandit the
stronger in Missouri?n The action OF
tue defense in changing its course in
the face of the jury, and abandoning
the jim Cummings theory, was
strongly commented upon. The de-
Tense had said great deal about the
Rock Island railroad to excite the
granger prejudice. 1t is not capital
that calls upon you to redress wrongs;
it is pool of the blood of tabor and
not capital that cries aloud for justice;
it is the bleeding wounds of McMlllen,
the stonemason, that speaks. Wal
lace then analyzed the testimony,
treating it from memory in remarka-
bly, clear and forcible manner. The
jury was besought to recall that the
gang in all its transactions were
moved by greed for money alone, and
chivalric revenge for wrongs COM
mitted during the war bad nothing to
do with it. There was enthusiastic
applause at the close of the speech.
| The jury retired at 1920.
