WEAK DEFENSE PUT
UP FOR PRISON II


At this term Of court for This
county, Joseph +. BOnham, of Las
Cruces, was the prosecuting officer,
and in this case he was assisted by
George w. Prichard, the then attor-
ney general. George b. Barber, of
Lincoln, and Richmond p. Barnes, of
Silver City. were retained as the de-
PENDANTS counsel, the latter, however,
not entering the case until after the
plea of not guilty had been entered
by the defendant and the defense out
lined. This was probably the weak.
est defense ever put up In a capital
case, all the circumstances considered.
The defendant claimed that the muir
dered woman had committed suicide,
when every layman could readily see
and understand that II would have
been impossible for the woman to
have fired second shot after either
of the shots, which II was proven had
been fired, had taken effect. The de-
fense exhausted all preliminary mo-
tlons upon technical grounds, seeking
a continuance but was compelled TO
go into the case. II lasted week.
and the territory made such strong
case that the jury was out but few
minutes, returning q verdict Of guilty
of murder In the first degree. The
sentence was passed by Judge Mann,
fixing the penalty at death. from
which Judgment an appeal was
