ARGUMENT OF COUNSEL.
Three Hours Given to Each Side for
Argument.

Mr.. Spears began by congratulating
the jury on the approaching end of this
1.-THE longest and most tedious, if not the
most important trial this court has known
in the last decade" He called attention
TO the Importance of preventing infringe
ment of the coinage laws of the United
States
''Now there was counterfeiting going
on I'M Wilmington. There is no doubt
about that. The spurious coinsl were
passed off ON the good people of that
CITY. And here is the outfit for making
the money, captured in Politz's place.As
a result of this two men have been con-
victed-Politz and Silby-and here is the
third man on trial before You. Costobe-
lus is in the penitentiary in New York.
He argued that the manner and bear
ing of Cotsobelus, the character and
amount of material ordered, were enough
to have put Marshall ON his guard.
'FIt wouldn't have deceived a fifth rate
Justice of the peace. a country magls-
1rate would have known better. And yet
here's this shrewd lawyer pretending not

1yould sl1sDect Cotsobelus; but who would
suspect Mr. Marshall, an attorney. Who
,voI1ld think of investigating what was
shipped to him? Ordinarily nobody would
have Thought of it. But it began to be
,1-hisnered about that Marshall was CON
nected with the counterfeiting, and it
was remembered that Marshall had
been frequenting Politz's place at might.
And then again, gentlemen of the
iury.I call your attention to Marshall
silence while this case was being work
cd up. Why did he not tell the agents OF d
the Government about ordering that stun
for Cotsobelus? He had not at 1na'
time been employed as attorney In the
case. And yet he was going whispering
around. counselling different ones to keel
their mouths shut 1t is one of the
strongest circumstances of guilt.
He called attention to the large num-
her of witnesses brought from Whining
ton and said:
''Many of these witnesses were incom-

SIX HOURS OF ARGUMENT BY COUNSEL
Fine Speeches Made by the Lawyers on Both
Sides. The Charge Of the Judge Clear
and Impartial. Public Sentiment

on the Side of Marshall.

The Marshall counterfeltlng case was
finished IN the Federal court yesterday.
His fate is now with the Jury. They
took the case last night at 6:l2 O'clock.
and as yet no verdict has been reached.
Just how the votes taken stood nobody
beside the jurors and the officer in
charge of them know, though it was re-
ported late hast night that they We're
about equally divided.
All the predictions last night, by those
who have been keeping up with the trial,
were that the result would be either an
acquital or a miStrial. Nobody, 18th the
exception of the prosecution, seems to
believe Marshall guilty.
Marshall guilty.
The Whole of yesterday was consumed
in argument of the case.
There was six solid hours of speaking
three hours to each side. This was di-
vided as follows:
Mr.. Spears, for the prosecution, one
hour.
Mr.. MeareS, for the defence, one hour.
Col. ArgO, for the defence, one hour.
Mr.. Bellamy, for the defence, one hour.
Mr.. Bernard, for the prosecution, two
hours.
All Of the Epecches-on both sides.
We're very fine ones, and were listened
to by quite a large number of people who
followed the arguments closely.

THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
Concluding Speeches by Bellamy and
Bernard.

When court resumed it's sitting at .
o'clock Mr.. Marsden Bellamy began his
argument for Marshall, speaking just
one hour. He said:
There is a question l want to ask,
and | wish | could answer it loud
enough to wake up the walls OF the Al
bany penitentiary: Why is Cotsobelus
not here? I'll tell you why he is not
here. He is not here because he's In the
clutches of the government and we
couldn't get him. But why hasn't the
prosecution got him here? III tell
you why. They knew he'd ruin their
case If he'd been here this case would
have ended last Friday.
''Are you going to believe these two
Greeks and say that these reputable
citizens of Wilmington have lied? I'm
willing to rest this case on the evidence
of Politz and Darkley and Marshall
alone"
Then Mr.. Bellamy took up Marshall's
story pointing out its many evidences of
truthfulness.
Listen to me minute for my cause.
Who is Marshall? The son of poor, but
pious parentage. The architect of his
own fortune, fighting his way in the
WOflu dlOne, WllHOut dlu VI IIIeHuS, "a
cert such as he might happen to make
in course of the practice of his profess
sion. / invite your attention to his YER
sion of this affair, for it is a true
one. His character is vouched for by
Governor Russell and others"
Reviewing the evidence of Marshall
and those corroborating him, Mr.. Bel
lamy continued:
Are you going to believe two self
convicted Greeks and five self-confessed
felons, or are you going to believe high
" honorable hoy and some thirty respect
able men. If mans character doesn' t
count in a trial like this, pray tell me
when it will count.

Detent to- testify for the purpose for
which they were put on the stand. This
cloud of witnesses could have been for
Int one purpose-to influence this court.
And since they have been here they have
acted in such way as to bring from this
court arrest and punishment upon one
Of their number.
''They have done more than this. They
have broken through the prison walls for
evidence to bolster Marshall and to at
tack Politz. And who is Hawkins? Is he
not MarshalPs friend? Then why is he
trying to bride witnesses? A shrewd, cum
ming fellow, a good writer For these
reasons he was selected to do this work.
The government contends that Hawkins
was approached by some one in the inter
est of Marshall. Then he goes to work
to get four Others to swear that Politz
had declared Marshall innocent. AN of
these fellows are birds of feather: but
the darkest plumed bird of all is Haw
kins. because he has had three dips in
the dye pot. having twice before been a
convict.
"Why such work was going ON at the
penitentiary / do not know. Why POLITE
should have been sent for to come to
Days office l cannot imagine. And it
doesn't matter, nor does it matter what
Politz there said. Hc swore to the
same thing on this stand that he swore
to i'm Wilmington before he was sent to
the penitentiary. He told it there in court
against the advice of his counsel; told it
to his companions in prison. And the
only men that ever came forward and
swore that Politz ever said Marshall was
innocent are Day and Hawkins.
DAY heard runors and he sent for
Politz. He forgets where the rumors
came from. but he heard runners, and he
sent for Politz and Politz told a differ
ent story from any he's ever told before
or since. Can't you imagine where the
rumor came from. Hawkins had 1T pour

There is one feature of the Marshall

Argument of Col. Argo.

Col. Argo began his speech by calling
attention to the fact that Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Spears did not review the
evidence or lay down the grounds on
which the government would contend for
the conviction of the defendant.
..He tried simply to divert the atten-
ton of the jury from the real facts and
issue i'm this case. The court is not here
to convict any more than to acquit. The
