HAYS CASE GOES
To JURY TO-DAY
ATTORNEYS FOR THE DEFENSE
MAKE STRONG FIGHT
HINT AT GUILT IN OTHERS
Prosecution Answers the Attack Made
on Characters of Judge Noyes
and Assistant Cashier
Twoeood
HINT AT GUILT IN OTHERS

In the closing argument made by
United States District Attorney Valen-
tine yesterday afternoon for the prose-
cution in the Hays case much of his
time was taken up in answering the
attack made by the defense on the
characters of Judge Noyes and Assis-
tant Cashier Twogood. Attorney Nc
Keeby made the opening argument yes
terday and spoke to the jury for nearly
an hour along the same lines of de-
fense that had been thrown up by Earl
he made frequent illusions to the pos
sibility of guilt being locked in the
| bosom of others than the man on trial
for embezzlement.
f. A. Meserve was the third attorney
| to speak for the defense and in his ar
gument continued in the attempt to
produce a doubt in the minds of the
jurors of Hays guilt by emphasizing
and dwelling on the points made by his
colleagues who had spoken before him.
Evidence, Written Declarations
"The entire evidence in this case con-
sists of the written declarations OF
Clyde Daniels and Mr.. Twogood on one
side, unsupported by oath and the writ
ten declaration of Tom Hays on the
other" said Mr.. Meserve. I'm these
books which are offered as the principal
evidence for the conviction of Mr.. Hays
are between 1000 and 1000 erasures an6
corrections running from the cents
column to the thousands column. Is
this evidence enough to send man to
the penitentiary?"
In his final argument for the prosecu-
ton Mr.. Valentine said 1.-The defeng.
has talked about the possible guilt OF
everyone else except that of Tom Hays
They have attacked Twogood. Daniels
and Judge Noyes. but they have left
out the principal actor, In the person
of Tom Hays. If Hays did not know OF
these mistakes which appear in the
books so systematically it was his busi-
ness to find out. and II he did know
of them it was his business to investi-
gate them and report the investigation
to his superior officers. Instead of this
1t was Twogood who was the first to
suggest an investigation and it was
Hays who said that he thought 1t un-
necessary"
The prosecution concluded its argu-
ment at $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
but an adjournment of the court was
taken until this morning, when the jury
will be charged by Judge Wellborn.

THREE HUNDRED POUND
MEDIUM IS EXPOSED
Woman Is Dragged From Cabinet Dur
ing Fight With investigators

NEW YORK, March 6.-Calvert Ber-
wick, a native of Virginia. has caused
a sensational exposure of material
izing medium" in the latter's Lexing-
ton avenue apartments. In the midst
OF seance. in a crowded room. the
medium, a woman weighing 300 pounds,
was dragged, shrieking. from her cab
met ard tossed into the center of the
circle Of dupes. She fought like a
trapped tigress. Furniture was smash
ed, men knocked down and glass bro
ken before the woman and her hus-
band were finally subdued. Then three
gas jets were lighted and the medium
was found gasping in the center of the
room, clad In mass of gauze, coated
with paint Half her spiritual garb
and her headpiece were in the possess
sion OF Berwick.
According to the Virginian, his moth
er, resident OF this city, has lost
thousands of dollars in investment
made through the advice of the spirits.
and Berwick stated that he intended
to prosecute the medium responsible
for the losses. Berwick's cousin, Har-
rison Grindiey, was with him at the
seance, and struck a light while the
fight was going on in the cabinet I'm
mediately half a dozen or more con-
federates attacked the two interlopers
They were fioored in quick succession,
and after great effort the woman was
dragged into the light About her
hung mass of cheap cheese cloth liber-
ally smeared with the phosphorescent
paint, while remarkable looking head
piece had been torn away by Berwick.
1t consisted of the top of an old felt
hat with the brim cut off, around
which had been wound yards of the
cheese cloth. A piece of old silk had
been cut and sewed to form a mask for
the face. This was just transparent
enough to give the outline OF the fea-
lures beneath.

For ceremonious evening dresses
there are no more effective and thor
oughly seryiceable gowns than SPAN
gled robes, in white, black or any pale
color.
The newest models are conspicuous
by the use of much padding, which IS
employed under the principal figures of
the design, or by the introduction of
velvet flowers or leaves here and there
in the pattern.
Many of these gowns. as well as
those of all other materials, are now
made on princess lines, which is an
undeniably lovely model, but is one
that is far from becoming to many
women. A superb gown of this
style seen lately is of pale pink
mousseline over self tone taffeta that
is simply covered with a marvelously
beautiful design of irfs wrought in pale
shades of the natural colors OF the
flowers. There are a few soft folds
across the bust, with a twist OF tulle
above to outline the decolletage, but
from there to well below the hips the
gown fits smoothly. The bottom of the
skirt, however, is very full and is fin
ished with several fluffy under ruff1es
of mousseline.
Another charmingly pretty spangled
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1905-03-07

gown is illustrated. This is OF cream
white net over lettuce green chiffon
taffeta and is made with a full gather
ed skirt finished with two deep
fiounces. The upper part is spangled
with iridescent green paillettes in a
graceful design, and the fiounces are
trimmed with appliqued roses OF sew
eral shades of pink velvet with leaves
and stems wrought in the pale green
Spangles.
The full bodice and short puff sleeves
are likewise spangled and the low,
slightly pointed decolletage Is out
lined with folds of lettuce green tulle
caught by pink velvet bow in front.
Pink velvet is also used for the wide
pointed girdle. which Iaces together In
front and a single pink rose is worn
in the hair.
4 Although the floral couture orna-
ments are much in vogue there are
many other styles also used by smart
women, and among these is new or
nament that is particularly, pretty to
wear with spangled gowns 1t con-
sists Of large daisies of shaded span
giles, either gold, silver or pink, blue
or mauve in opalescent tints, combined
with feathery marabnut tipped with a
tiny bit OF ostrich plume.
