The trial of Thomas Birmingham closed last
evening. except as to the verdict Prosecuting
Attorney Harding and Attorney Spaan used the
day in their arguments, and at quarter to 5
o'clock Judge Nortons charge to the jury was
concluded. The defendants lawyer dwelt par
ticularly on the question of reasonable doubt.
He said that the doubt had been established in
proof that Benton fell from the station

which caused his death. The prosecutor
opposed this by citing the medical
testimony. which sustained the impossibility of
the static n-house accident If it occurred, lead
ing to his death. 1t was urged that the kicks
and blows of Birmingham, and nothing else. pro-
duced the rupture Of the kidney. Judge Norton
explained to the jury at length the force
of reasonable DOUBT. He also called attention
to the fact that the good character of Birming-
ham could not relieve him. if the proof of guilt
established. The jury retired, and at ii o'clock
last night was still in consultation. At that

A CHURCH QUARREL.
a Kansas Rector Reads the Religions Riot
Act to His Presiding Bishop.

Leavenworth, Kan, Special
On the 22d inst. Fred S. Demattos, the young
rector of the Episcopal Church of st. John in
this city, held a service In his church which he
designated as memorial for the repose of the
late Father Jardines soul. Bishop Vail, of To-
peka. head of the Episcopal Church of Kansas,
addressed the young father very caustic letter.
crltlclslng such action and deprecating the fact
that there was rector in this diocese
who would undertake such a proceeding in the
light of the damning testimony brought out in
the Jardine trial Bishop Vail, after severely
chastising the youthful father, requested that no
more Jardne memorials be held in the church at
Leavenworth under penalty of the removal of the
rector. Father Demattos, however, has written an
open letter to Bishop Walk and will publish the
same in the Times of this city tomorrow, in which
he defends the late Rev. Jardne, and character
ICES the Bishops efforts at criticism as dctatorial
In the extreme Demattoss letter will create
widespread CONSERVATION not onlys in this city
but throughout Kansas. He defends Jardine,
and characterizes the recent trial effort to
besmirch the character of one who was free from
guilt and pure in the sight of God. In his clos
ing paragraph he utters the following language:
1.-THE most eminent priests in the diocese of
observation-disclosures for age. learning, and
service to the church-acknowledged by the
church In her highest councils are one in the
opinion that the trial was unfair, unjust, and
illegal from beginning to end. Whether it be so
or not will not undertake to say as my knowl-
who personally observed and participated there
in but whatever the correctness of their view, it
was in complete accord with the comfy that
shonld subsist between dioceses, that such me-
mortal, or requiem, for devoted. self sacrifc-
ing priest be held. Your illusions to such sacrl-
fees of masses as is condemned in the article of
religion which you would quote does not, of
course, touch this case, as no such sacrifice
offered. beg to say in closing, that could not
remain for one hour in a communion that could
pursue poor mortal priest layman beyond
the bounds of this little life with
bitter words, or cruel thoughts Thank
God he has gone to that Father
who. as the Bishop of Missouri says, will deal
justly and lovingly with his servant To that
divine justice and love commend him, and
have neither regret apology to offer for it.
May God in His infinite mercy grant that in my
own hour of need no greater sin, if sin it be,
shall assail my SOUL and pray Him, dear Bish-
op. to pour into our hearts that most excellent
gift of charity, without which all our doings
are nothing worth. Affectionately. your son in
