WASHINGTON, May S.-When Bliss began
his concluding remarks to the jury yester-
day he made q particularly bitter attack
upon Brady. and then turned upon the
other defendants. "This prosecution"
said he, twas intended to protect the
Treasury. Such trials must take place,
and the eyes Of the whole people OF the
country are now upon this trial to ascer-
tain II a jury could be found in the Dis
trict of Columbia capable Of understand
ing and properly dealing with . case OF
this magnitude"
As Bliss took his seat Merrick said the
Government has closed its opening.
Wilson, for the defense. Immediately in
quired whether the Government would
claim two arguments in closing.
-Merrick replied in the affirmative, and
read . letter from Attorney-General Brew
ster, wherein he (Merrick) is directed to
ask the Court to allow the Government
two closing arguments, for it was his con-
viction that they were entitled to it in this
of all other cases. II the Court declines
to allow the motion, then the Attorney
General is necessarily excluded.
Wilson declared that he would refuse to
argue the case if the Government were
allowed two closing arguments.
Ingersoll also made q vigorous protest
against it.
The Court said it had seen nothing to
satisfy it that there was any reason to
justify q departure from the established
practice in such matters. 1t was universal
in jury cases to allow but one reply to the
Government, and that order would be pre-
served in this case.
Ingersoll explained that perhaps the de-
tense could arrange to make q place for
the Attorney General. They did not want
to deprive the Government of the services
of its highest officer.
Merrick said lie should refuse to enter
into any arrangement with the defense, as
they had uniformly rejected his prop
osition.
THAT'S what we want" said Ingersoll;
.'to make them responsible for keeping out
the Attorney General"
At the request Of the defense the Court
adjourned until to-day.
This morning Wilson began his closing
argument for the defense. He was fol-
lowed by Carpenter, Williams, Hinkle.
Davidge, Chandler and Ingersoll, in the
order named.
