Defense Is After.
barrow, who closed the argument,
began by saying that it was the pur-
pose of the defense to secure dis
closure Of the evidence in the hands OF
the prosecution. and asked why the
defense was not entitled to such
showing. He made a spirited attack
upon the attitude of the prosecution
towards its witnesses and evidence,
describing it as mysterious, unfair and
unjust. He asserted that the only
question involved was one of fairness
and justice to the accused; laid stress
upon the difficulty Of securing testi-
mony from distant points, and the dan.
ger to the defense of surprise" testi-
mony, and passionateiy asserted that
the rights of the prisoners were as
much in the hands Of the prosecution
rs in the keeping of the defense.
In answer to Judge Wood barrow
said that the defense was not ready to
so to trial. but Richardson interrupted
him to make the qualification that tho
defense was as ready as it ever could
be in the circumstances where the
case of the state was withheld from
1t. He said that in all other respects
ahe defense was ready.
Richardson, responding in brief to
the argument of Borah, said that the
counsel for the state made no distinc.
ton in his arguments between the
overt acts which the state would seek
to show the commission of the alleged
overt acts. The defense wished to know
what the overt acts were.
Borah closed the discussion with n
spirited speech, in which he defended
secrecy in obtaining witnesses. instanc-
ing the loss of two in Colorado Sun
day; disavowed a desire for any mans
blood untustly and avowed the pur
pose OF the state TO do its duty.

Chicago, May I. - The reports of
damage to the crops. which have been
so numerous of late, owing to the IN
seasonable weather and the ravages of

according to James Wilson, secretary
of agriculture, WHO'S at Chicago. When
asked for his opinion on the coming

Spring seeding is a little backward
on account Of the cold weather, but
there is plenty Of time between now
and the last Of September to grow
crop of all kinds of grain. In the
states of Minnesota and the Dakotas,
where we get most Of our spring wh6 at,
seeding has been delayed about two
weeks. but with a few days of warm
sunshine planting will be in full prog

seasonably cold in some districts still
it has not been severe enough to re-
tard blowing, and my advices are that
the ground in those states has been
nearly all made ready to receive the
