HOLMES DEFENSE
LEGAL FIGHT ON
TECHNICALITIES
Claim Made That De-
PENDANT Has Broken
No Law.

Although the Government will prob
ably rest tomorrow in it's case against
Edwin S. Holmes, jr., for alleged con-
spiracy against the United States by
giving advance information in regard to
the cotton report of June. 1905. and the
defense will present but few witnesses
there is a prospect that the few remain
ing days of the trial will be hard fought
Knotty legal problems, the settlement Of
which will either Iberate Holmes or
send him to MoundsviIle. will be decided
before the case is given to the jury.
Claim No Law Is Broken.
In the alleged giving out OF advance
information for pecuniary gain. Holmes.
IL is said, in so far as the statutes of the
United States are concerned, technically
did nothing wrong. There is no statute
or law that says advance information
cannot be given out concerning the
future crops. Holmes. it is therefore
claimed. even if he did give out the
information. was violating no law of
the Government or of the Bureau Of
Statistics.
Such viii be the argument of the
defense, as, judging from their tacucS
thus far. they will make no great effort
TO refute the testimony that Holmes did
speculate in cotton and give out advance
information in regard TO the different
crop reports as prepared by the Bureau
of Statistics.
Charge of Conspiracy.
There being no law directly covering
the giving out OF advance information,
the Government had Holmes indicted on
the charge Of cOnspiring TO defraud the
United States. This he did, they claim,
by his debauching the Bureau Of Sta
tistics for private gain.
II is this point in the indictment. as
stated. that Will have the most to do
with the outcome of the case.
If the Government is successful in its
prosecution of Holmes, further indict-
ments. and the pressing of indictments
against Haas and Peckham may be ex-
pected
