DR.. VOGEL TESTIFES
TO KOCH'S CLOTHING

Several witnesses testified Thursday
that he wore his everyday suit Of
clothes, a salt and pepper coat and
vest and a striped pair of pants DR..
Vogel, in particular, remembers this
suit. He was with Koch until late in
the evening and noticed Koch's
trousers, in particular, when the
dentist threw his legs over those of
the witness while they were sitting in
the law Office Of Hoidale & Somsen.
II was also clearly shown that the
doctor wore the same clothes on days
Immediately following the homicide.
The Importance of this testimony is
that no blood stains were found on
! Koch's S clothes and as the murder was
a particularly bloody onethe heestablish-
ment of this fact is a strong point for
the defense.

Verdict for Defendant Expected by Most Al

Disagree.

He occasionally moved his hands,
but only two or three times his posi-
tion, and he never once seemed dis
turbed mentally. A man slow to
make up his mind and perhaps over
conscious, one would be apt to decide
after listening to his deliberate replies
to The states questions. He swore
positively without a suggestion of
hesitation, looking the defendant full
in the face as he did so, that George
r. Koch was not the man he had seen
kneeling beside the body when he
looked through the transom.

PROSECUTION TRIES
TO TRIP WITNESS

The purpose of the cross-examin-
alton by the state was to show that
Immediately after the murder he had
not been certain Of this and therefore,
by inference, that he had sworn false
ly: In conducting the cross-examin-
alton Gen. Childs used transcript
of the testimony given by the witness
at the coroner's inquest and during
the investigation conducted by the
citizens committee. Mr.. Brooks told
the story familiar now to everybody
in New Ulm, and perhaps in the state,
of his discovery of the murder. Gen.
Childs from the typewriter transcript,
then read parts of the testimony given
by Mr.. Brooks to different individ-
uals and during the various invests
cations in which he said that he would
not swear that DR.. Koch was not the
murderer and he would not swear that
he was the murderer.
Asked if he had made this statement
to the several persons and in the sew
eral instances mentioned, the witness
admitted that he had, but he added
that each time this statement was ac-
companied by an explanation which
he asked permission to give.
EXPLAINS CONTRADICTIONS
| That permission being finally given
by the prosecution, the witness said
in a very clear voice:
II never made to any person the
| statement that [ would not swear that
DR.. Koch was not the murderer and
that I would not swear that he was,
without first explaining, that if it were
possible for emotion or passion to so
change mans countenence that ii
was not recognizable, then the man /
Esaw might have been Koch; and ]
always added that [ did not think it

height, very pale and had high cheek

description that might fit the defend
ant and the state made the most O

The Koch murder trial is nearly
over. The evidence on both sides lis
all in, the arguments to the jury are
finished and now all that remains is
she judges charge before the twelve
good men and true retire to their room
80 decide whether DIR. George r. Koch
shall go free Or hang.
The state rested it's rebuttal yester-
day morning at 9:20 and the defense
announced that it had no surrebuttal
offer. General Childs then arose and
began his address. 1t was a master
piece, as every auditor soon felt. He
went over the history of the crime and
treated of every phase of the case and
the defendants possible connection
with it,
When the noon recess was taken he
was not near finished and after the
Judges gavil opened court at 1:3O he
spoke for over three hours more.
He finished with peroration that
for pure eloauence has seldom been
equaled in an address to a jury and
when he took his seat it could be
plainly seen that he had made a
strong impression on the jury.
L. L. Brown, who ever since the
trial begun has been sitting quietly
taking notes preparing for a great
effort, began his address after a short
recess had been taken. He talked for
an hour and then left the rest of his
argument for this morning.
Mr.. Brown has a powerful delivery
and wonderfully logical way OF
presenting facts to a jury and they
watch him with keen attention.

ONLY EYE WITNESS
TESTIFIES OFCRIME.

The testimony of Asa P. Brooks as
given by the reporter for the St. Paul
Globe is reproduced here and is as
follows:
The general impression seems to be
shat Asa 2. Brooks has made the
defense easier. He was on the witness
stand all the afternoon and the
greater part of the morning, and
though called by thecourt and therefore
subject to a most rigid cross-examin-
alton on the part of the state, his
testimony appeared to lose little of
the firm effect it produced. When
Judge Webber announced after the
morning recess that the court would
itself call Asa p. Brooks in order that
both sides might have a chance to
scross-examine him q sudden hush, un-
usual in its significance even for a
court room, fell on the spectators. 1t
was one of those dramatic silences
that are more impressive than any
sounds or any uttered words. And
for several minutes after Mr.. Brooks
had seated himself in the witness
chair, the courts tersely put ques-
lions, the witness equally brief replies
might easily have been heard in the
corridors outside the court room.
KOCH NOT THE MURDERER.
The courts questions led upto the
all important one: ''Was the man
whom you saw kneeling beside the
prostrate body when you looked into
the room the defendant, George r.
Koch?' and when the answer came,
clear, firm and readily, "No sir, it
was not the silence in the room
ceased to be felt, the suspense was
over.
The states attack began sharply
and was brisk throughout. 1t sought
TO prove that statements previously
made by Mr.. Brooks belied the testi.
mony he gave to the court. 1t was
noticeable that the cross-examinatio
did not claim the same hushed atten.
lion as the testimony to the court. ye1
what the latter was to be was known
the result of the former was unknown

sWe will attempt no mitigation.
We will show to you beyond a reason
able doubt that he did not commit
this crime. We want not only an ac-
quital for this young man, but an ex-
oneration. But before we get through
we will show you clue which. if this
Pinkerton prosecution had followed
it, you would not be here trying
George r.. Koch. We will show you
that an unknown man was seen going
into the stairway of Gebhardt's Office
a few minutes previous to Koch S COM
ing out of the barbershop. We are
not here as prosecutors, but we will
furnish evidence pointing unmistak-
ably to this man."
A summary of the points which the
defense will take up in proving its
case is as follows:
It will prove an alibi substantial
by the testimony of Witnesses whose
integrity is above suspicion. It will
prove beyond shadow of doubt
tkat DR.. G. r. Koch was at home at
the time this foul murder was commit
ted. It will be shown tha the arrived
there in his usual trim appearance,
his clothing in absolute order, and
with not a trace of that terrible ex-
citement under which the perpertrator
of a murder, hot from the scene of his
dastardly crime, would have shown.
1t will produce evidence that will
point with unmistakabe certainty to
the man who committed this crime.
It will be evidence of unquesti enable
character. Further it will prove that
DR.. G. r. Koch had sores on his
hands on Monday, the day previous
to the murder, and testimony will show
how and when he received these in
juries.
HOW KOCH WAS INJURED
1t will be shown that DIR. Koch re-
ceived these injuries on Sunday while
out driving with a young lady; that
when he got out of the rig to shoot,
the horse became frightened. That
while DR.. Koch was running to catch
hold of the horse, he fell, receiving
not only injuries on his hands but a
scratch on his face. 1t will be shown
that DR.. Koch has in his possession
the lead pencil it is alleged was
found beside the body of the murder
ed dentist. It will show that DR..
Koch did not send the package of
poison to DR.. Gebhardt, and the SAM
pie box received by DR.. Koch will be
accounted for. 1t will be shown that
DR.. Koch had enough arsenic for
dentist purposes to kill a hundred
men, and that if he had intended send
ing poison he would have used this
rather than the bitter and easily de-
tectable strychnine.
HAMMER BELONGED TO GEBHARDT.
He did not have to steal poison
from the medicine chest of a physi-
clan. The defense will not deny that
| the handkerchief at one time belonged
| to Koch, but it will be conclusively
shown that there were many ways in
which it might have come into the
possession of another.
The defense will prove beyond q
doubt that the hammer found beside
the body of the murdered dentist was
| one which Gebhardt owned and hae
had in his Office for some time prev
ious to the crime.
/ AS Mr.. Somerville stood in front O.
/ the jurors he was the focus of all theil
eyes. AS he took up the separate
circumstances upon which the state
rests its case, the jurors followed hin
carefully and were evidently much i'm
pressed.

terests, and certainly not when there
are before the people two candidates,
both liberal supporters of the church
and in complete sympathy with its work
and all moral reforms.
The True Northerner is now, and
always has been, heartily in favor OF the
enforcement of all laws, and would be
the last to lend its influence to the sup
port of any man for judicial honors who
would be so devoid of all principle as to
fail to do his full duty to the people. But
in Judge Des Voignes we feel that the
republicans have a candidate who is a
clean, capable conscientious man, one
who would not sacrifice his sense CT
right and justice for any office within the
gift OF the people, and such being the
case, we feel that he is entitled To he
unanimous support of the voters of his
party. VIII he get itY We believe he
will, and we are SIRE he would receive
the normal republican majority in old
Van Buren, if every voter knew the man
and his worth, as he is known to the
writer.
On account of the demands upon his
time by his duties as Judge of probate,
he has been unable to spend much time
in the campaign in Van Buren, county,
and it is greatly to his credit that he has
not neglected a public trust to advance
his private interests. He has been in the
county but three or four days, and has
visited the larger towns and met as many
people as possible, and he regrets that he
cannot become at once acquainted with
more Van Buren, citizens. Wherever he
has gone he has made most favorable
impression. He is gentleman whom to
know is to esteem, and we wish every
voter in the county might know him
personally before election day.
For several years, he lived at Marcel
lus, not far from our county's borders,
and it is noteworthy fact that in Porter
township, where he is well known, no
republican defections to Judge Carr are
reported or claimed.
Let us get together behind good man
and elect him.

The Circuit Judqeship.

From the Hartford Day SPRING
Interest in the coming spring election
is being intensified over that aroused for
few previous years because of the i'm
pending election of circuit Judge. The
republicans have made a most excellent
selection in the candidate they have
placed before the electors of the Both ju-
dicial circuit in the person of Judge l..
b Des Voignes of Cassopolis. Judge
Des Voignes is an able lawyer and man
of marked judicial ability and sterling
character, eminently fitted for the office
of circuit judge.
The Day Spring has nothing disparag
ing to offer as to the moral worth or
legal ability of the present incumbent of
the Office, Judge John Il. Carr-but
nothing can be said to the moral credit
or legal qualifications Of Judge Carr that
cannot be said with equal truth and EN-.
phasis of Judge Des Voignes. The Both
judicial circuit is naturally strong re-
publican circuit, and it is only under
uuuSudI CODulllOuS ludI a utnOCTdllC
candidate could hope to be elected to
the circuit bench. With so thoroughly
qualified candidate as the republican
ticket presents this year there is no good
reason why the republican electors of
the circuit should again throw their sup
port to the democratic nominee, and
again encompass the election of a demo.
cratic Judge by means of republican
votes.
Judge Des Voignes made a tour of the
county last week and everywhere met
with most cordial reception. He is a
thorough gentleman whom it is pleas
ure to meet, and we believe that the re-
publicans will declare by their votes in
April that the necessary qualifications of
circuit judge are not combined to de-
gree of unusual efficiency in the demo-
cratic representative of the bar alone.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1905-03-24

SOME Van Buren, county voters are
anxious to know more about l.. B. Des
Voignes' qualifications for circuit Judge
and we certainly want them to be in
formed. He was prosecutor in Cass
county, and after denomination was ten
dered to him declined to accept it be-
cause he could not afford to neglect his
private practice for the salary paid He
has been three times elected probate
judge for Cass county. He graduated
from the law department of the Uuiver-
sity before he was 2l years old, and has
always been a close student, and is
counted one of Cass county's best post
ed lawyers.
