BRADLEY TRIAL
 WILL SOON END One Week or Ten Days Will
 Be the Limit
MUCH SYMPATHY AROUSED
Mrs. Bradley Has Free Counsel and Medical Experts Will Testify Without Expense-Both Sides
 Confident of Verdict.

Washington, November 24,-Whether the Bradley trial can be concluded this week or not it will enter upon its final stages almost immediately after the court con- Venes tomorrow, and it is confidently eX- pected that if the end is not attained be- fore Saturday night there will be com- paratvey little to do the following week. All will depend upon the extent of the wrangle of technicalities in connection with the expert testimony as to Mrs. Bradleys mental condition when she shot Senator Brown and the length of argu- ment for and against her.
 The judges charge to the jury is the only other important feature still to be taken into consideration, but will not con sume more than an hours time at the outside.
 There will probably be three speeches in Mrs Bradley's interest, one each by Mir Hoover and Mir Wells in opening for her, and one by Judge Powers in closing. For the government MT. Turner will open and MT Baker close. Mir. Hoover and MT. Wells do not count upon consuming more than two hours time between them. but it is probable that Judge Powers will talk for an entire day. as he will desire to summarize the favorable testimony and explain away as far as possible the points against his client. MT. Baker also will speak al length. It is, therefore, proba- ble that the better part of three days will be consumed In the speech-makng.
 The alenists will take the stand very soon after the beginning of the courts sitting tomorrow, but not until more Of Senator Browns letters to Mrs Bradley shall have been read.
 The professional men who will be intro duced to testify in Mrs. Bradley's behalf are Dr. Brltton D. Evans, medical direc- tor of the New Jersey State Hospital for the Insane, who was one of the experts called for the defense in the Thaw trial; Dr. Charles D. Hill, of Baltimore, and Dr. Wilfred NJ. Barton, an expert in men, tai and nervous disease. To these men, Judge Powers will detail the story of Mrs. Bradleys life and especially the part of it in which she was associated with Sem ator Brown aud repeat ir sphstanre the greater part of the testimony dealing with his treatment of her and showing how she was affected by it, after which he will put the question to them as to whether they believe, in view of this cir cumstance the woman was sane when she struck down the man to whom she had been so deeply attached. They are ex pected to say no, and in so answering they will come into conflict with the alienists for the government, Dr. s. F. Joliffe of New York and Dr Edward $ Brush of Baltimore
 The district attorney will do all in his power to combat the plea of insanity. He and his associates believe they have made their case.
 The prosecution is also counting much upon the revelations that will be made in letters of Mrs. Bradley's which were found torn to pieces in her room after her arrest for shooting Brown. They were rescued and pasted together and Mrs. Bradley identified them as hers while on the stand.
 Much sympathy is being expressed from all parts of the country for Mrs. Bradley and in some instances it has taken the shape of offers of financial assistance. Not only her attorneys, but the mental eX- perts are rendering service without charge.
