Eloquent 8peech to the Jury by the Hon, William Lathrop, Forcible Argument of Mr. Trude Throw ing the Gullt on Mr, Storeys Bpectal Dispatch to The Triduna. Rocxvorp, Iil., Feb. 16.—The Interest awak- ened.by the trial of Wilkie and Flynn had not in the lcast sbated this moming. Large num- bers were in attendance Joug before the handle of the Sticrlf’s knife called the meeting to or- der. Among other distingulshed persons pres- ent was Gien. Allen C. Fuller, onee Judge of this cireuit. Jhe General was allowed to occupy 8 place beside Judge Murphy during the morning sesslon. Promptly at 9 o'clock the Judge made his sppearance. Your reports in yesterday’s dispatch did not mean to fnfer that Judge Mur- phy’s rulings were fmproperly in favor of defendauts, hut that under the Court's view of the Iaw the position of counsel for the defendants appeared most tenable, THE CROSS-EXAMINATION OF THE DEVENDANT PLYNY was continued by Mr. Lathrop, Under the poluted and scrutinizing questions of the proa- ecution Flyon finched, but though bis former testimouy was placed fua worse light, it was not materially shaken. As usus! Flynn was profuse with his protestations of funocence. He said he would rather have bis sboulder pulled out than to damage the character of any one's daughter, Ho admitted sceing Clark In Rockford, and also that he made au_ appointment with Clark to try onil see Miss Early, for the purpose of having Clark {dentify ber. This was prior to Clark’s deciding to make o statement, Flyno also ad- mitted: ineeting Clark In Chicago, aud nlso that he went with bim to Trude's office. Upon this occasion they held n conversation about this Eurly matter. Witness acknowledged that he called uoon Mry, Orville Wood, and that his errand there was to obtaln affidavils sgajust Miss Early, VARIOUS DESIALS. He denled speaking of the “cold man's” rcbes or of the barrel of money. denfed that he promised to di- vide the spoila with her if she would swear out the right kind of afiidavits against Miss Early. He had no recollection ot telitng Mrs. Wood that Storey would give her $800 for the proper sort of aflidavit, nor did he think the Times was mentioned upon that oceasion. He thought he mnde 1t clear to her that Storcy would mercly pay for time and trouble, and that ne premfums woutd Le offered for the meanest statement., Herce the Conrt very properly raled that the defendant, Fiynn, was not obliged to answer ‘Trudu’s questlon Iu relation to the search made for Miss Early when Flynn took Clark to {dentl{y her, * Mr, Storrs then asked Mr. Wilkie a question in regard to a letter offeriog 8300 for certain -| statements. Wilkio sald he never wrote such o letter. Mr. Lathrop called for Mr. Clark, but Storrs objected, and the Court sustalued the objec- tlon. SENATOR JOIS EARLY was the next witHess called, for the purpose of proving that lie did not instruct ono of the writ- neases for tho defeuse (Mr. Dow) to remaln away from court. Btorrs obfected, and the Court sustaived tho ‘objection, and Mr. Early again took bis seat near the counsel.

There s no subject of more interest or fin- portance to the general public at the present titne than that of ife-insurance.
