HIS FIGHT FOR FREEDOM.
BRAN TELLS THE STORY OF THAT
FATAL NIGHT AT SEA.
Calm and Clever, lie Accounts For All Suspi-
cious circumstances Jury Favorable.

Boston. Dec. 24.-The defense In the
trial OF Mate Bran, charged with the
killing OF Captain c. /. Nash on the bark
entine Herbert Fuller. began yesterday.
The junior counsel for the accused, Asa
p. French. made a lengthy. but elo-
Quent. opening, and then called Bran
himself to the witness stand to testify
in his own behalf. The direct examn-
alton was lengthy. and at the time of
adjournment was still unfinished. Bran
told a straight story OF the affair and
made but few contradictory statements
He claimed that Monks. the passenger,
advanced the theory that the second
mate killed the captain and his wife and
then killed himself. The nature of the
testimony Of Bran was to place the re
sponsibility Of the murder on either
Brown or the second mate
Bran told of the placing OF Brown in
irons and OF his own experience in a
similar predicament. When being ironed
he told the steward ne was innocent,
and knew nothing of the case.
The Fuller was brought into port and
Bran placed in JAIL Before the direct
examination was completed the ad-
Journment hour arrived. 1t is expected
that the entire day will be consumed

would be honestly elected, and, if the count
is honest, he would be governor of Ala

Goodwin is equally confident that the pop

Gov. Oates charges that the fusionists
are making special efforts to control the

The Ad. Writers, Meeting.

The Ad. Writers held their regular BIZ
monthly meeting at Chevy Chase last even
ing. The first thing on the program for
the evening was sumptuous dinner serv-
ed on the balcony of the Inn at Chevy
Chase, and this was followed by the regu-
lar business session of the meeting. The
committee on national convention made a
report on the progress 1T had made toward
securing the big meeting for this city,
which showed satisfactory results. A Sec
ond committee was appointed to confer
with the New York advertisers with the
end in view of having the convention come
to this city, and it is thought that the ef-
forts of the two committees will result in
success. A paper on advertising was read
by Mt. 1. Cans and the informal discussion
of it closed the meeting.

One effect of the late Chlno-Japanese war;
