Chambliss Trial Near
End
Continued from page IL

CONTINUED from page IL
JAG. Covington, former roomer
with Mrs. Ross at 1924 State St.,
next took the stand for the State,
but his testimony was so conflicting
as to be of no value.
peg Leg" Murphy, star witness
for the State next took the stand.
Murphy testified that he had met the
girl at the home of Mrs. Ross, 1925
State, and had been informed that
she was Chambliss' friend" More
of Murphy later.
John Davis on Stand.
John Davis, waiter at Elite Cafe,
No. 2, WIS another star witness for
the State. Davis testified having seen
Chambliss drinking with the Wiebeck
woman in the Elite. Davis is the only
witness the State could produce who
ever saw Chamblss with Bertha Vie
beck.
Bruseaux Springs Surprise.
1t was for S. A. Bruseaux, princi-
pal of the Keystone Detective Agen-
cy to unearth the sensation of the
trial. He brought forward Spencer
Russell, 1854 E. card St, peg Leg
Murphy's employer, who testified that
Murphy told him of meeting Bertha
Wiebeck two days after her arrival
in Chicago. Cahmblss met her two
months after her arrival. Russell's
testimony went a long way to show
that Murphy, not Chambliss was the
chief factor in the Bertha Wiebecks
downfall.
The defense produced numerous
character witnesses for Chambliss.
McShane in a BLACK & Tan" TRADE.
Russe's testimony was so damag-
ing to the States case that on Tues
day, Attorney McShane, for the State
attempted to enlist the racial preju-
dice of the jury by burning TRADE
against the intermingling of white
women with colored men in the
"Dlack and tan" underworld. He
made the usual plea for the purity
of white womanhood and pictured
the whole South Side in condition
of moral degeneracy. McShane was
answered by brilliant speech on
the part of the defense by Attorney
Jas. q. Cotter, who held the jury and
the audience spell-bound.
In summing up the case Wednes-
day morning Attorney Barnett
pleaded the la wfor the defense,
and Attorney Niemeyer closed the
case for the State.
