Keen rivalry exists between attor-

Redhaired Stedman Prescott,
chief defense counsel, and John
Oxley, assistant to States Attor-
ney James H. Pugh, frequently
clash. Mr.. Oxley, brought into the
case at the last minute, is of a
more fiery nature than his chief,
Mr.. Pugh.
Mr.. Prescott and Mr.. Pugh were
former political allies, but per-
sonal friendship is not apparent
during the trial here.
Following selection of a jury,
which consumed most of yester-
days session, Mr.. Pugh presented
his opening statement.

Prescott then began in his ORA
matte plea. His statement was
punctuated by objection" from
Mr.. Oxley.
Many spectators recalled that
Mr.. Prescott defeated Mr.. Oxley
for States attorney in 1880, and
in 1884 defeated him for the State
Senate, as Mr.. Prescott vigorously
protested to the court against the
Interruptions.
During one of the verbal com
bats the court raped for order,
and Mr.. Oxley said heatedly:
"There is no need for Mr..
Prescott to direct such remarks
to me, for it will not keep me
quiet"
Mr.. Prescott's statement to the
jury was concluded about 6:15
