For the cntlro scs- Ion today the opposing counsel In the cnnlo llosschletcr murder trial appealed to tho Jury. Assistant Prosecuting Attor- ey Itnlph Shaw, began the summing up for tho stnte. It was expected Unit .Mr. Kmlcy would do this, but he mctcly offered In evidence tho undergarment snld to bo part of Jrnnlo llosschlcter's wardrobe. Mr. Shnw In his summing up claimed that the state had proved Its case and Hint Its very contention had been sustnlned. He denounced the accused and said tho nc- used hnd tnken tho girl out to do her to denth Ilkn a dog. Ho hoped the Jury would And such a verdict as the evidence de manded. IOx-Jiidge Frnncls Scott led In the sum ming up for the defense. Ho wns followed by Mlchnel Dunn. Their nddresses were Imllnr. They declared that no ease hnd been mndo out against Walter McAllister, William Denth and Andrew Campbell. They Idlculed the expert testimony nnd branded tho lincltmun, Sch,ulthorpe, ns u mnn of tho lowest typo nnd of the basest motives. They maintained that the story told by him was not support cd by evidence and thnt It wns n lie. Mr. Scott made n point thnt If Schulthurpc'n theory were to bo believed nt nil ho Bhotild bo n prisoner accused of participation in tho crime. I'oIkiiii In Part f AnmiiiiK. Mr. Scott wns arguing that the stnte had failed to prove its flrst count, that of ns snult, when Judge Dixon interrupted htm, saying: "Ileforo you proceed I want the Jury to understand that If chloral wero given or If a person wero struck or choked In order to accomplish tho assault tho poison or as sault Is n part of the violence. The Jury must not bo misled on thftt point." The consul for the defeuso declared It wns not proved that chloral wns adminis tered to tho girl nnd maintained thnt If tho tatemcnts mado by l'rof. Wltthnus ns to tho finding of chloral In the stomach ot the girl wcro to bo taken into considera tion so wero those of Ur. Vnnderburg to bo given weight. Dr. Vnndenburg declared ho hnd seen per sons "knocked out" by drinking nbslnthe. The defense maintained thnt It hnd not been proved thnt nny of tho defendnnts had pur chased chloral, or that tho bottlo alleged to have been found near the dead girl belonged to one of the prUoncrs. They declared that none of tho mcdlcnl testimony offered had shown thnt tho girl hnd been assaulted. Cone liinlou lOxpreted Toiluy. Former Judge William T. Hoffman, who conducted for the defense all tho examina tions and cross-examinations, was to con clude tho summing up today, but he asked thnt ho be allowed to begin his nddrcss to morrow morning, instead of this evening, to preclude the necessity of repetition should ho bo interrupted by the adjournment of court. i This request wji granted nnd the court wns nOJcurned uiffll morning. It Is believed the case will go to the Jury tomorrow. T As soon as cjot&JL opened Assistant Proso- cutor Shaw nrolu. and 'began his address to the Jury. Ho "sold that a 'killing 'that oc curred In the" p'cfjiefraUon of a felony con stituted murdo: dn the flrst degree. "We have learned," he continued, "that Jennie Eosschlctcr was uot quite 18 years old, Shu la entitled to the presumption that sho was a virtuous, honest and upright girl. There Is no ovldenco to the contrary. Her physical condition was such that sho must havo boen ablo to tnke two or three drinks without bad effect." Tho prosecutor then proceeded with a brief survey of the incidents of tho evening nnd night of October 18, ns they wcro brought out by tbo witnesses for the stnte. All lleffiiilriitfi (iiilltjr. In conclusion. Mr. Shnw Bald: "All tho defendants are equally guilty aa principals In this crime. Tho stories told by the de fendants on tho witness stand proved a mis erable fnllure ns n defense. Such a defense Is worthy of no consideration. Their stories are to bo weighed by what they said before, no matter under what circumstances they told It. With these facts presented, the stnto Is compelled to ask you, putting nslda all sympathy, hut In tho name of Justice, for a verdict of murder In tho flrst degree. Judge Francis Scott then began the clos ing argument for the defense. Judgo Scott asserted thnt the case ot the stato wns not supported by legal proof and that tho state was charging nn impossible crime. He alluded to the general unanimity with which the community had accepted as truo the published statements that tho death of Jennie, llosschletcr had been brought about through the attempt of tho accused to commit a felony and of the dim- culty of tho Jurors divesting their pilnds of all prejudice. Ho declared further that each of the accused men should have had a he pa rate trial. Judge Scott said that If It wcro true that tho girl hnd been killed by tho defendants In an attempt to assault her, as alleged In ono count of the Indictment, tho accused men wpuld be guilty of murder, but he de nlcd that tho allegation had been sustained by tho stnte. The other count in tho in dictment charges murder. "If," said coun sol for tho defendants, "It wcro nttomptcd to prove that tho girl had died of poison It would bo for tho stato to prpvo that the poison was given with Intent to kill." Thi common law, he declarod, was superior to tho statute, nnd in this caso he asserted the superiority of the common law principle ns ngalnst the stato statute, which Bays that it death results to an Innocent porson In an nttompt of another to commit a felony the latter shall be deemed guilty ot murder In tho flrst degree. (Jlrl I'oollxh nml Vu In. Tho caso of tho state, Mr. Scott asserted, wns made up of circumstantial evidence. He alluded to Jenn'o Ho9schlctcr as a girl fool Ish nnd vain, though not necessarily vie Ioub. who was under no control, who was In the habit of being out Into at night, though only 16 years old. On tho evening of October 18, counsel said, sho willingly went with two men, one of them married, to Saal's saloon to carouse. Mr. Scott assailed tho testimony of tho hackman, Sculthorpo. Before tho coroner Sculthorpo sworo ho saw no assault upon tho girl: In court ho testified thnt ho did witness tho assault. In one case or the other ho testified faslely. Tho alleged confession of tho defendants Campbell and Death, to tlio pollco officers Mr. Scott declared, wns not relevant, hav Ing been mere hearsay so far as tho Jury was concorncd. Counsel for tho defense next attempted to destroy the value of tha evidence of Prof. Wltthnus as to tho finding of hydrato chloral In the btomai.li of tho dead girl by citing the testimony of other chemists that an alysis of a solution from the drinks the girl had had In Saal's saloon had shown tho tame poisonous liquid as Wltthnus found In the stomach. As to iho state's theory that McAllister poured something, presumably chloral hy drate, In Jennie llosschlcter's glass, M Scott said McAllister did so, but It was champagne, Michael Duuu, also ot counsel for the de fense, followed nnd devoted the opening portion of his argument to establishing the proposition tint there was between the ac cused men no prearranged plan to make Jennie Dossclileter drunk and nfterunrd cnuse her to minister to their evil passions. Mr. Dunn took up the question of motive nnd denied that there was any and said that the action ot tho men in plnrlng the body where It would bo found showed they wero guiltless. Ho clnlmcd that thero was no criminal act shown In the case for the state. Tho men hnd done all that was pos sible to revive tho girl. Mr. Dunn contended thnt the standing of tho prisoners must be considered. Denth, n young man only recently married, and of respectability; Campbell, almost a boy, with the whole world nnd most of life before him; McAllister, n reputable business man nnd well known to tho people of I'qtcrsnn. Wns It not preposterous to accuse such men of such n crime? Mr. Dunn finished n frw minutes bctoro I o'clock nnd hnd spoken almost continuously slnco the noon recess. Mr. Hoffman naked thnt court ndjnurn no thnt ho would not havo to begin his nddrcss beforo morning, and this wns agreed to. It Is expected that Mr. Hoffman will speak ot least two hours. He will then be followed by Mr. lOmley, with the closing argument for the stnte. It Ii expected tho enso will reach the Jury In tho aftirnoon.
