Influence in Reaching
Verdict.
BY the Associated Press.


SALEM, Mass. August l5-A jury
in the Essex County Superior Court,
at SO am today. began deliberation
of the case OF Jessie B. Costello to de-
eide whether they would send the at
tractive 32-year- old widow to the exc
cutioner for the poison Staying OF her
husband, Fire Captain William J. Co.'S
tello of Peabody.
The case was given to the jury after
charge delivered by Judge Frederick
w. Fosdick.
District ATTORNEY Hugh A. Gregg in
his summation Of the Government S
case he'd branded Mrs. Costello rs a
scarlet woman VINO had engaged IN an
illicit affair with Edward j. Mcmahon,
Peabody reserve patrolman.
William G. Clark. her defense coun-
sci. in his argument to the jury ha6
portrayed her as a loving mother Of
three small children. devoted to her
husband and her home, against Whom
the State had proved no crime.
Warns of Sex Influence.
He touched ON ctrcumstantial evi-
dence and said if there was single
circumstance inconsistent with the con-
tinunity of the chain a not guilty ver-
dict must be returned.
Referring to the testimony OF Nc
Mahon. Judge Fosdick said it was OF
great importance The sexual instincts
OF men and wcmcn are such that they
can exert much power over the
thoughts and actions Of person He
urged the jurors to use cold, unsWerv-
ing impartiality regardless Of sex " The
law, he added, knows no sex in guilt
or innocence"
Let me solemnly warn you" said
the court, IF you see any truth in
what he (McMahon) said you must
! not allow disgust for Mcmahon to stop
YOU from using it in this case. You
| must give truth its full force; you must
not be false to your duty to organized
society because of your feeling OF dis
gust for Mcmahon. McMahon had the
! right to refuse to discuss any questions
which might incriminate him. HIS
testimony gives legal basis for charg-
ing him with the crime of adultery
The use of vulgar and profane Ian
guage had nothing to do with guilt

other than as it went to make up pic
ture of the defendant, the court said
The jury that is called on to decide
the future of Mrs Costello is unique
group, composed of men who gravitate
to flowers and to song
Every morning they have stopped at
florist shop and secured blossoms for
their buttonholes. They have spent
their idle hours singing.
Mrs Costello had closed her case
yesterday with last request that she
be sent back to her children.
Immediately after District Attorney
Hugh A. Gregg completed an eXcoriation
of her, she stepped to the jury box and
said:
The district attorney has spoken
He said 1 didn't love my husband, but
he didn't know my husband and he
doesn't know me- The only thing l am
asking you is to send me back to my
three children 1 loved my husband
and I didn't kill him as he said"
William G. Clark, of defense counsel
spent three hours and half in his
attempt to convince the jury that the
States case was based on conjecture;
that it was a circumstantial chain with
many breaks.
Gregg retorted that there had been
but one missing link and that the de-
fense had supplied this. He referred to
a box of capsules the defense had pre-
Sented.
Gregg said there was mot one scin-
tilla" of evidence to support a theory
of accidental death; that the suicide
theory fell of its own weight; that the
only theory left was murder and that
the defendant was the only person in q
position to have committed that murder
The district attorney, producing g
capsule filled with a white substance
tried to reconstruct Costello's death
He said the defendant could have giver
her husband the capsule. telling him
that it would make him sleep.

The 21st amendment for repeal
of prohibition will probably be
ratified by as many states as the
18th amendment was, according to
analysis of the Literary Digest pro-
hibition polls.
An analysis of the 1922, 1880
and 1892 nationwide polls on pro-
hibition, all of which had over
whelming wet majorities, discloses
the forecast that 46 states will en-
dorse the new appeal amendment
TO the Constitution, the magazine
points out.
Assuming hat the prohibition
polls should be as accurate as the
presidential polls, inasmuch as
both were conducted in the exact
same manner. The Digest states
that the drys will be unable to
muster more than one or two states

peal if the issue is put to a direct
vote of the people.
A majority of the American ele-
ctorate was wet in sentiment IL
years ago, the magazine shows by
a review of the returns in their
1922 prohibition poll, when Kan.
sas and Oklahoma were the only
TWO states to vote for the 18th
amendment.

because they are warehouse certih-
Gates for gold. Amount, $1,522,-

the days Of silver money. They are
not necessarily redeemable in gold
but are so redeemed in normal

warehouse receipts for silver. They
are not legal tender but, like silver
dollars, are generally redeemed for

forms of money and the different
ways in which they are supported,
they are exchangeable in normal
times.
Recently more emphasis has
been placed on the money with the
stronger support, such as gold cer-
tifcates, but the banks are bring
