NEARING CLOSE
 OF FAMOUS CASE Brandenburg's Suit Will Soon
 Be With Jury SUMMING UP OF DEFENSE Counsel for Brandenburg Concludes His Address By Bitter Attack
 Upon New York's Hand
 writing Experts.
SUMMING UP OF DEFENSE

New York, June 2S.-The end of the trial of Broughton Brandenburg, charged with grand larceny in connection with the sale of an alleged spurious letter of Grover Cleveland to the New York Times, drew near today with the commencement of the summing up by the attorneys for the defense and prosecution. The case will go to the jury tomorrow.
 Oswald N Jacoby, summing up for Brandenburg, referred at considerable length to the fact that F. R. Hastings executor of the Cleveland estate, though called before the grand jury was not called as a witness by the district at torney. He declared that there had been powerful interests at work to attack the authenticity of the article and said that former Secretary of the Treasury John G. Carlisle and President Finley of the City college had made up their minds to discredit the article if possible, and the only way open was to attack the only living man who really knows whether MT. Cleveland wrote it or not
 He called attention to the testimony of the Times editors that they had not relied on Brandenburg's statements and that Brandenburg, therefore, could not be convicted
 At any rate" he argued, If this ar ticle was written by Grover Cleveland the question of whether the signature is genuine or not is immaterial. If the ar tiele is genuine the Times got what it paid for"
 Mir. Jacoby concluded with an attack on the handwriting experts who testified against Brandenburg, declaring their pro feSsion dispicahle

Testimony of Witnesses.

Two witnesses testified that they had seen the article in type written form as substantially after was published in the Times before August 10 last, the date on which a stenographer has testified she had typewriter the article sold to the Times by the defendant.
 George E. Fleming, a lawyer, said that he had seen the article with Grover C1eveland's signature attached on June f. 1908. Randolph E. Willis, Sunday edi- tor of the New York Herald, testified he had the signed article in his possession before August 16. On cross examination MT. Lewis stated the article was a rib bon, not a carbon copy. Brandenburg had testified that MT. Cleveland signed a carbon copy.
 In rebuttal the prosecution called Charles R. Miller, editor of the Times who declared MT Clevelands signature in evidence was the one attached to the article when 1t was received by the Times. It had been claimed by the defense that the signature before the court, which had been pronounced a forgery was not the one originally attached to the Times article.
 Charles M. Lincoln, Sunday editor of the Times, said that he himself had cut the Cleveland signature off the article Brandenburg sold the newspaper.
 Frances Belasco, secretary to MT. Reik of the Times. told of receiving the article back from Brandenburg. She identified the article In evidence as the one Bran denburg gave her.
 stenographers Story.
 Lillian M Bacon, the stenographer who had sworn she typed the Cleveland article on August 10, testified that the paper from which she had made the copy was unmarked The defense had asserted that the copy Miss Bacon made was of a copy of the article that had been damaged.
 Mrs. Frances Folsom Cleveland, widow of the former President. testified that MT Hastings had not told her at the time that the signature she examined was not the one he saw on the article when 1t first came to him. Mrs. Cleve- lands other testimony related to the dates of visits made by MT. Cleveland to New York city in the spring of 1908. She was not cross-examined

Another cabbage field which is
one of the prettiest and finest in the
entire Lower Rio Grande Valley, and
also furnishes an example of very
profitable returns is that of Geo. Fe-
derolf about three miles and a half
from the city. Not only is this par
ticular cabbage of the very best quail
ity, but Mr.. Federolf will make about
$4,000 pounds to the acre, fully a
carload or possibly more. This par
ticular cabbage patch contains about
eight acres. Estimating that Mr.
Federolf will net $400 to the acre,
which is indeed a very conservative
estimate, he will realize on the eight
acres about $4,000.

any kind of food.
Il knew something Of Grape-Nuts
and its rather fascinating favour and
particularly Of its nourishing and
nerve-building powers. SO started the
boy on Grape-Nuts and found from the
first dish that he liked it.
His mother gave 1t to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
eight pounds and soon became SO well
and strong we had no further anxiety
about him.

Il Immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good. rich milk. and just a
little pinch Of sugar. He exclaimed
when I came the next day Why doc.
tor never ate anything so good or
that made me feel SO much stronger.
Il am pleased to say that he got
well on Grape-Nnts, but he had to
stick to It for two or three weeks
then he began to branch out a little
with rice or an egg or two He got
entirely well In spite of his almost
