Ended Abruptly By Defense and May Go 10 the Jury on
 Monday
PLAN OF DEFENSE

Washington, Nov 27-The abrupt.
 ness with which the defense rested its
 case yesterday in the trial of Mrs
 Annie M. Bradley for the killing of former Senator Arthur Brown of Utah, combined with the fact tha,
 already four witnesses out of fifteen summoned by the government in re-
 buttal have testified leads to the belief
 tha tthe case will go to the jury pos
 sibly Monday or Tuesday of next
 week. It is the present purpose of the defense not to cross examine at
 length Drs Jelliffe and Brush. the
 government insanity experts, or to
 place on the stand any witnesses in
 sub-rebuttal. It is therefore expect
 ed that at the close of to-day proceed
 ings the testimony will all be in.
 Unless there is change of pro- gramme tomorrow will be devoted
 to the preparation of prayers to the court. Inasmuch as it has been Jus tice Stafford's aim throughout the trial to keep from the jury any wrangling of counsel, an effort on the part of counsel will be made to reach an agreement with regard to the prayers so the arguments may begin on Friday. .r" t.>
