BUNNIE AND BABY BUNTING.

The Lattcr's Lawyer Insists that his
Client did nOt Break the Engage.
mleuts
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Part ~ OF the Supreme
Court was crowded this morning with people who
came TO hear the summing up In the Campbell
Arbuckle breach OF promise suit. The doors had
70 be locked before the hour set for the session.
Women TO the unlucky number OF thirteen were
able To squeeze into uncomfOrtably filled seats De-
fore the Keys were turned. Miss "Bunnie' Camp
bell sat at her counSes table under the escort OF
her elderly chaperone, and cast scornful glances
from time TO time at "Baby Bunting" Arbuckle,
who was seated not far away, but VINO never
raised his eyes In the direction OF the plaintin.
Lawyer Jno. E. Parsons opened the FORMAL pro-
Greetings by argument for the defense. He fol-
lowed the same line that he showed In his examine
ton Of witnesses He insisted that Miss Camp
bell had always been after Mr.. Arbucklels money
only. She cared nothing for his affection or his
comfort. When she saw he was sick, perhaps
unto death, she urged speedy marriage In order
TO get hold Of tne mans wealth. Mr.. Parsons
asserted that his client had never broken the en-
gagement. He not only said, 81 am engaged 10
you," but also, a stand by my engagement" His
letters showed that he was fond OF the plaintin,
and the very terms OF endearmenJ used therein
have made him an ObjecI OF deriston as he passes
along the streets.
