the fatal gun practice OF II. NJ. S. Pluck
today rendered a decision acquitting

DIR. GRAVES GA e.
To Show Up the Alleged Bad Char
acter of the Prisoner.

DENVER, Nov. 80. 7 h prosecution in
the Graves case will not only endeavor
to show that DR.. 7. Thatcher Graves is
guilty of the death of Mrs Josephine A.
Barnaby, but also that his career as a
prisoner dated back as far as 1878, when
he was resident of the little town of
Danielsonville, Mass. The medicines
which he is charged with having fur
nished to do the deadly work of that oc-
casion, is now in the hands of the prose-
cution and will be submitted to Profess
sor Sewell of this city for chemical an
alysis. 1t will be i'll pursuance of their
plan to show up the alleged badeharac-
ter of DIR. Graves, that the state will en-
deavor to convict him of attempted
crime at that time and in that place.
It was in Danielsonville that an lille
gitimate known now as Charles Vernon
Brown was born in 1873. DIR. Graves is
alleged and the state will endeavor to
show that he was the father of this
child, and that on the occasion of its
birth he attended the mother and pre-
scrlbed the medicine now in their possess
sion, with the express purpose of put
ting the offspring out of the way. The
boy i'll question is now 13 years of age,
and through all of these long years the
little vial which was, as charged, de-
signed to do the deadly work On the oc-
casion of his BIRTH has been carefully
preserved by the friends of the mother.
1t was Professor Sewell who analyzed
the contents of the bottle out of which
Mrs. Barnaby took the draught that
caused her death.
The witnesses who have been expected
to arrive from tho east got into Denver
yesterday. Among them was ColonelL.
T. Rickano, of Danielsonville, Mass,
who traced down the hiding place Of
this little vial Other witnesses who ar
rived were John j. Devendish, the stamp
clerk of the Providence postoffice, who
sold Dr. Graves stamps Charles Vernon
Brown, the child before referred to; Mrs.
Baker, the grandmother of Charles
Brown. For the first time it was made
public yesterday that Colonel Daniel r.
Ballou, the Providence lawyer, will take
the stand in behalf of the defendant.
