Mott, the Undertaking. medium, who
was tried at Kansas City on 4 charge
of fraud, was acquitted Oh the I'd Of
May.
The Kansas City Times, in COM
menting on the trial. says:
"This has been probably without ex-
ceptiOn the most extraordinary case in
the history Ut the Jurisprudence of this
country, and many Ut the legal ques-
tons brought up have never before
been passed upon 10y any court. The
testimony has been unique in the ex
IRENE. aud the witnesses OF /. higher
degree Of intelligence than are usually
found on the witness stand. Judge
II. n. Ess. ex-Mayor Chase, DIR. Joshua
Thorne, ex-Alder,nan Anderson, MIR.
Geo. L. Ol,nstead, men whose teStimO-
ny would le accepted without i 4ues-
ton in any other case, have sworn pcs
itively that they have seen and con-
verse.l with the forms of their deceased
relatives and friends at MIR. Motifs.
What rs more, they have testified that
the nature OF the conversation has
been such rs to leave no question as to
the identity OF the alleged materialized
forms. Witnesses have testified that
they have seen AS many rs four appari-
tioils at the cabinet window 1T the
same time, and one witness, Judge Ess,
swore that lie saw the medium asleep
in his chair while he WAS conversing
wish the spirit of his deceased tutor,
DR.. Latl,rop, formerly President Of the
University of Missouri. Whatever may
he the opinion AS to she genuiueness of
what these persons saw, there can b.
no question that they thought they
saw what they have sworn to. and the
question still remains, how conld intel
ligent men. men of acute minds. aud
meH who before visiting the defend
ants house were avOwed unbelievers in
~ iritualism, have been so deluded, if
the manifestations were decisions.
The interest III this case is almost
national. The reports Of the proceed.
ings have been telegraphed in extenso
to many Of the leading journals Of the
country, and have been copied by al
most every paper of consequences in the
Union. The large crowds that daily
block up the court room testify to the
interest being taken here. The case is
in everybody's mouth and Spiritual
ism is being more generally discussed
than it ever has been."
