martial in the case of Colonel Compton was
concluded to-day. The findings of the court
will be reported to the Secretary of War be-
fore being made public. In his closing argu-
ment, counsel for the defense called atten-
ton to the Inconsistencies in Prosecuting
Attorney Banford's testimony. he ar
raigned Sheriff Mcfarland for cowardlcs in
opening the jail on the demand of the SOL
diers. Judge Advocate Mcclure made a
strong speech arraigning Colonel Compton
as having been negligent of his duty, and
stated that Colonel Compton showed his
neglect particularly in that being warned of
the rumor of an attack by the soldiers, he
not only took no means to prevent a sue
cessfuI attack, but took no measures that
would render any attack abortive. He said
that Compton's long service of thirty years
rendered it impossible for him to fall back
on any alleged incompetency. Judge Me-
Clure alluded complimentary to the action
taken throughout by Prosecuting Attorney
BlanfOrd.
