The Bradley TriaI.

Washington, ID. o., NOV. zo-lne
6 Sht of the slienists, upon the outcome
OF which will depend Mrs. Bradley's
fate, was carried smother step forward
today, DR.. Evans and DR.. Hill being
called upon to reinforce the strong testi-
moDy given by DIR. Barton yesterday.
At the same time the plan Of the prosecu-
ton to make its strongest fight in the re-
buttslis gradually being disclosed. The
last witnesses called will give testimony as
to MIS-. Brsdley's threats to kill Brown,
in an attempt 10 show that the impre,-
sion upon which the experts for the
defense base their conclusions of insanity
was not a complete or correct picture OF
Mrs. Bradley's mind. 1t is now prob
able that the trial will not end until the
eve OF the anniversary Of the shooting,
December 8.
Mrs. Bradley and her attorneys enter
ed into consultation, before court was in
session today, over the introduction Of
new witness, heralded as surprise, for
the prosecution. Mrs. Bradley WAS cheer
ful. DR.. Isaac Rich, the surprise, witness
who is from New York city, testified to
seeing Mrs. Bradley in tue writing room
of the Rlleigh Hotel, shortly before the
shooting.
"5he rushed in, with her face drawn"
he said "Hei actions were such as to at
tract my attention, and her face changed
expression rapidly, and at times she
laughed to herself. Her eyes were bulg-
ing out and dilAted, and she appeared
stupid. She looked tired out, rs If she
did rot knew where she was looking"
Asked if he had formed any opinion,
DR.. Rich s id &: "Yts. l thought ST was
sort of lunatic."
DIR. Charles Hill, Of Baltimore, one
of toe alienists for the defense. next took
the stand. The facts inclu1ed in the
testimony Of Df. K ch we're added to the
hypothetical question propounded to DR..
Hill.
la answer to it he said: 1 should
say the person described in tbs hypo-
thetical question vas insane. She was
unable to distinguish right from wrong"
The reasons given By DR.. Hill for this
conclus on were substantially those given
b. DR.. Barton, the 6rjt expert who tes-
tiled for The d-lense,
d.. Brit.ou d. Evans, the chief ex
pers of the Thaw trial, followed Dr..
Hill on the stand.
Ia snswer to the hypothetical q1ss-
tiop, D.. Evans said: 81 am OF the
opinion she was insane. She was not
able to disting uished right from wrong"
DR.. Evans testimony in explanation
of his opiuions Was dram ATTIC in the em'
phatic delivery with which it Was given.
At his being led at Que time to reAsc,
upon Browns conduct Justice StatfjId
inte'pO O.,
District Attorney Baker did not cross
examine, asking merely whsther Dr..
Evans hsd examined Mrs. Bradley, and
receiving a negative answer, he die
missed tie witness.
At this point more letters of Mrs.
Bradley to Brown we're read by Judge
Powers, at which the prisoner could not
control her emotion.
Noon recess was then taken.
Mrs. Bradley vas recalled to the stand
at the afternoon session to answer GER
ia 10 questions. These related to tCsi-
m ony given by her during her trial for
divorce, the reasons for leaving Bra dley,
and her duties toward him while they
lived together. Nothing important de-
veloped.
