NEWPORT. KY. May l2.-ThGre Is
a dlmunltIon In attendance At the
jackson trial to-day. Crawford began
his argument for the defense. The line
OF his defense has been TO create SYM

torturing lnqulsitorial treatment given
him by the Cincinnati police after his
arrest. He also tried TO show that VIII
Wood. not jackson, was responAlble for
Pearl BryAn'B condition.

morning and the commonwealth attor-
ney, LOckhRrt, will conclude for the
prosecution, 80 ~ 10 give the case 10
the Jury by adiournlng hour In the az
ternoon.
Colonel Crawford devoted much Of
his argument In an attempt 70 diDcredit
the testimony OF the two negroes, Allen
Johnson and George H. jackson, the
cabm0n, but his greater effort was 70
create q doubt as TO whether the girl
was killed ln Ohio or Kentucky, and
also TO establish an Rllbl for Scott
Jackson. Whatever may be the merits
OF his case and Of his argument Il 10
conceded by all that Colonel Crawford
is making a gallant hEht for his client.
