GRAHAM TRIAL CLOSED I ODAY WITH SPEECHES
Grigsby Makes Able Speech to Jury in Urging. Ac-
 quittal of Client

The Graham case, in which c. J. tShorty) Graham, well known To-
 cal taxicab operator, was charged
 with being an accomplce of Will
 liam McGee in the latter's holdup Iof B. M Behrends Bank on Janu- ary 23 last, was given to the jury late this afternoon. All the evil dence was completed Friday after noon and the arguments of coun-
 sel started when court convened at 10 a. m today.
 In one of the ablest speeches of his career, George B. Grigsby occupied some go minutes in ana lyzing the evidence which, he de- clared was as consistent with Gra- hams innocence as with his guilt, md that much of it was not duly consistent with innocence but it was also inconsistent with guilt.
 All Circumstantial Evidence
 All of the evidence upon which the Government pins it's hopes for conviction was circumstantial. MT. Grigsby argued that but for the evidence given by Graham himself, voluntarily, there was nothing in the record to connect the defend- ant with McGee at all, and not anything in it to prove that he was associated with him in rob ping the bank, planning the hold up, or to facilitate the robbers escape.
 saslMr. Grigsby argued this phase of the case briefly Friday after noon when he presented motion asking Judge James w. Harding to instruct the jury to bring in a verdict of not guilty This motion was resisted by the Governmen and finally denied by Judge Hard ing after more than an hour of debate.
 Two Points Left
 In ruling upon the motion, the court said there were two points brought out by the Government that the jury must decide. These were:
 The evidence given by Gladys Lamb that about 10:30 a. m. on the day of the robbery, and before 1 the identity of the bandit was known even to the officers of the | law Graham had told her that | McGee had been shot; and the testimony of Deputy Marshal | Frank Price that about 10 o'clock, | just before the holdup occurred, | ne saw Graham in a parked auto mobile on Franklin Street near Norris Construction Company's machine in which Graham admitted he and McGee 1ad been driving around town for
