— e THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: FRIDAY. DECEMBER 20, 1878, THE DEFENSE. Eleventh Day of the 8t. Peter= Clark Trial, The Prosecution Closes and’ the Other Bide Begins, Jir, Home Tells His 8ido of the Btory, and Doss Not Forget Col. Vaa Arman, At the opening of thed Crimioal Court yester- day momning, the cross-exatnination of FROP, PIPER, the microscopist expert, was continued, but the crowd presatit were not eotertained very much by his testimony, it belog entirely with refer- ence to bullets, They, however, listened pa- tlently. The women seem to have heen disap- pointed, or rather to have lost lnlcrest, less than a dozen betog present. ‘The Professor was on the stand about an hour ond s hall, and was questloned very closely, but the substance of bis evidence may be given in thes¢ words: Thers arc marks on bullet No. 1 (the one which was found {n Clark’s heart) which are not on No. 2 (the one first fired from 8t. Peter's platol by Dixon), and marks on No. 2 which are not on No. 1, but there are distinctive marks on both exactly allke. The point of No, 1 (s sharper than that of No. 2. In mskiog the drawings of the bullets, he put on them only the marks of preciston. Col. Van Armsn desired to show thata postal. can, recefved by Mr. ‘Thorp, (n which certain laoguage was used with refcronee to him, was written by ooe of thedefondants, the Professor, who was an expert {n handwritivg, baving com- pared that on the eard with tho sddress of Afrs, Clark, written by bersell, on the envelopes found fn 8t. Peter's trunk. Mrs. Clark was somewhat agitated by this announcement. The defense objected, and the Court sent for notc law books o ot ligkt on the question of adniissibility, The card 1a as follows: , JMr. Thorp, Lo Grange, Cook Cotinty:—Bin: Your Nfe I ta d.mrfi',’-nd it yon keep Bihe courses in the Clark mattor you have commenced on and niay In the State, you will Juse your life. Your course dathaiof o dor, and you ought to dle the death of that brate, and hell will be your portion. Intbe mean time Mr, Weber proposed to let the jury bavo bullets No. 1 and No.2 and s magnilying glass Inorder that they might see the lines, eLe, : s Mr. Vao Buran objected. The Court sald it was proper; the bullets and microscope (8 small one) could be handed the jury, they tolook for themseives without ex- planation or instruction, Mr, Van Buren didu't abject to that, 8o tho bullets were turned over (0 the twelve for examination, Betore tho Court had madeup hia mind about tbe postal-card, Mr, Van Buren sald, 1f the prosecution would atlow bim to keep the card and cavelops until this morning, be would withdraw the objection to their Introduction. His object, he emd vrivatoly, wes to have them submitted to another microscopist for examinstion, The prosecution than closed thelr case, snd MR, MURN, counsel for Mrs, Clark, subplemented the opeu- ing of Mr. Vau Baren by a socech of half an hour, At the outset ho” dwelt upon the dutles of jurymen, and the nccessity for trying the case ob |ts merits and without prejudice or bisa, They should not form a conclusion until they had heard both aidea, He roferred to thy ‘‘ex- trdordinary, unusual, and ingenious but unfalr argument of the hired counsel of the prosecu- tor.” Mr. Munn would make that argument totter ond fall to the ground. Col. Arman had made an unwarranted attack on Mrs, Clark, nssuming certaln things which ho said he would Ymve, but which he had not proved, Evidence iaq been hunted up to support a certain conciue elou—a theory formed {n the heartaof a fuw, 1o this country there seemed to be pecessity lor o wotlve it a crimo were committed, The * witness-hunters and busy-bodies " who sougtit to destroy the roputation of his client and do- prive ber and 8t.

Mr, Munn defied theé defense to show, rom the time 8t. Peter went into Clark's em- ploy until the day of Lis arrest, any criminal act ou " his Lrun in” connection witn Bra, Clark. ‘fhey bad kissed each utber, and therefore must bu guilty. Mis clicut was on triul for murder only, The kissing was not true, and ho would show it was not. But what of it If it wero true! Was every woman who was kisaed to be Ly or sent to the Penitentiary! [Laughter.| ‘Was & mau who kissed a marricd woman guilty of murder! It so, he kuew of butone man who would escape,—‘tho cold-blooded, hired ntoma;." [Lauubter.} Mr. Weber objected to this characterization of Col. Van Arman. The Court sald 1t was making & bugbear out of nothing. Col. Van Arman romarked that he would be ag::g:d 1f counsel were restralned in tha least Mr. Munn then went on toshow that the prosecution had mot established s motive for the crime. They said thex would provae criml- nalrelations. Tho jury bad hesrd the proof. He commented on ‘the teatimony to show the Qifferency between the statement of Col. Van Arian and the evidence adduced to support {t, Were Mrs. Clark and 8t, Peter locked ap ing room togother! A hired girl testifled thas thoy were {o s certain room, and & Ifttle 8-year-old Loy could not open thedoor, and she dldn't koow whether it was locked or not. Mr. Munu then adverted to Mrs, Clark’s *theorles " of the cause of her husbana's death, sayiog If sbe wers to be huog for haviag them a great man others would have to mount the acaffold wnfl her. Tho prosecution coustryed every litle circumstance, every act of his client, as tanding to show gullt, bue Mr. Munu would prove that they teuded to show her fnnocence.

Aund auy statements made by 8t, Poter Dot in the presence of Mrs. Clark had no effect either zs tending to show ner gullt or juno- cenve; nor did sl o by ber under tho same circumstances imperil “bim, Mr. Munn referred to the $3 bill found under her plate by Mrs. Hoover, nsserting that the prose- cution wisbed the lnfercoce drawa that su attewpt was wade to brive her; but had not Mrs. Hoover said It was given for an sct of kiudness, she having supplicd stra. Clark with dishes, and remaived up with her st nights! As to Lavine Briggs' testimouy that Mrs, Clark 83ld she liked Joe, and that her husband w Jenlous of him, Mr. Munn contended that Li Vina was not & person that Mrs. Clark would say h things to. Comlog to the tickling story, tis asked iz there was anythiog strangs in it1 Was it not a comuion thing in the counitry for the servants to be coustdered as bcll)llk'illfi tu the famlly? What of 1t it Mre Clark du like Jool He was a boy, undor aze, and & good, iuvul boy. As to what Bt. Peter said when ocked up, the buoks were full of tnstauces where men charged with crime bsd made con- tradictory statewents,—hud evou sdmitted that they were gullty when the conlrary was the 1act, becauso they were lookiug for wercy, Waa it strango that 8t.

Mr, Muun calmed that It was a horse-thief whio abut Clark. At this polut the hourof sdjoursmeat arrived, and further talk was defercd uutil the afieraoon seasion, Upon reassembling, the stteodance wes as 1ar2e s ou avy day of the triul, between ffiy 100 uot belng sble to find sests, aud there Was walight increase in the number of women. Mr, Munn resumed his opening, takivg upthe efforts al the prosccution to cunstrus 7. PETES'S CONTRADIOTOLY STATEMENTS iuto evidenco of gutlt, showing, sa hu clalmed, the nulairuess and futility of such coustruction. It was a privciple of luw that the accused should have the beuefit of s Lavursble coustruc- tion, Adwisslons for, as well as agulost, bin- selt were admissable; sud Bi.

Afto the cartridge in the cell, it might not have heen seen by tho parties who gearched, and s clreum- 2lanca that might be conatrued in the sccused's favor must Mr. Munn would prove that O'Brien, though he denled it, had told Mr. Freeman at Ls Grange that there was _nothlog sgainst Mres.

Peter, and that he would have them dincharged, 1f s witness were Impeached In & material fact, his whole testimony should be thrown out. arding ** that night,” 8t Peter was entitled to correct a mistake. How natural for nhn to forget the night! He had seen no tawyer, had. had mo ad- vice, vould not resd or write; was ap- vroached by detectives snd reporters; and ke sald Wednosday night ha was at Vernon Park—went to mect” hia gir). It would be shown that he was mistaken—that he wea at bis athier's Wednesday, and at the park Thursday night. Even if he had lled, did it make him guilty of musder! There was nothing in which one was so liable to ba mistaken as in the ldcmll.z ofa péraon. It hadn't been proven that 8t Peter was in ths vicinity of Clark’s bouse that day or night. The nearost the prose- cution camo to showling It was Ly the witness Martin; but he cald, I can't say thathe wasthe man.” ' Mr. Muon then called aitention to somo circumstances which tended to shuw the fano- ceaceof Bt, Petery The only ane he mentioned, howeyer, was thc\:lwulngm the revolvor, asking if & ity man would bave carried . across the river, and ditches, and fields, taken it to s pawn- lho{: wua public strect, nnd kept the evidence of the pawning in his pocket! B8t. Peter rave his own name pnd residence, and did not try to cover anything, This circumstance was stronger In bis favor then any of the circumstances ad- duced to show gutlt. Referring to the plctures, Mr. Munn saild $t was unccasonable to claim Lhat tho posscesion of two ot Mrs. Clark's plct tendered to show erimi y. o dis- missed the envclopes with tho statement that Joc had talked of golnz to Michiza: were givon to him by Mra. Clark scud letters about worl created atfon by saying that there would be demot tod to the jury a theory cunsistent with the inoocanse of St Peter,—that the b lot known as No.1 mever killed Mr. Clarl His client (Mrs. clul? hag only been dragged into the case to oet a {ury to couvict oo honsst young man. It would be shown that a bullet #triking the pulmonsry artery wonld not go’ through one wall, strike tho other, £top, walt awhlle, sod thea crawl dowa foto the beart. This wss the theory of the prosecution, And it would be proven that Dr. Davis ran his finger down the artery to where it was said the bullet was found, sud dldn’t tod it. ‘Ihe prose- cution Itself had raised a reasonable doubt on this point. And agaln: & ball ired staotingly thrdugh the sternum would be scratched and marked. -Yet it was asserted that the Lall found {n Clark’s heart was marked tho same as that fired intoa barrel of water, It un- ressonsble, In conclusion. Mr. Muoun said it would be demonstrated that 8t. Peter was not in Lu Grange that Wedncedsy night. Every hour, day and night, would be saccounted for. It was sald he:destred to marry Mrs, Clark, Mr.-Munn polnted out Miss Benoit, and esked it tho boy would marry & woinsn oid_epouzh to be his mother, saying 1t would ba shown that Bt. Peter and Miss Benolt were enga to be married long befofe the death of Clark,—that shie had been driven from her mother's house on account of her devotion to him. Thls circum. stance amounted to something. The good character of both defendants would be shown. The speech of Mr. Munn, which lasted for about two hours, was a very cifoctive one, and was listoned to with great ‘attention by the au- dleuce. There'were one or twn slight expres- slons ot sympathy, which were quickly sup- yrensed. Mrs, Clark wept duriug its delivery, and Bt, Peter seemed to gather bope from what was sald; at least, he was {n very zood spirits. ‘The taking of testimouy for the defense then began, Mr. Munn stating tbat they would not be quite us loug as thia prosccution [n presentlog thelr case, to Mr. Munn then DAVID B, LYXAN was the first witness, apd he testified substan- tially ‘ns follows: Am mo attorney-al-law; Y(I'lclk‘d in Chicago, but llve in La Grange. mow the delendants, and knew Mr. Clark, Know David Dllkcalez; bave known him tor seven years.

He theu began a suft by sitachment against them, and siso swore out a caplas, under which they were arrested, Bec. 1 of Chap. 18 of the Revised Btatutes of 1874 provides that s cspias toay (ssue * when aoy person shall ba about to commence a suit In sny court of record ia this Btate, founded upon any’ specialty bill, or note in writing, or on the judgment of any court, and in all actions of covenant or account, and actions on verbal contracts or sssumpaits st law,” etc., 8 caplas may be fssued on proper afiidavit, and the do- Iendsnt be held to ball, Bec. 81 of the chapter on attachments, page 157, provides that s party fo sny action of deot, covenant, or trespass, or in apy action on prom- {ees, baving commenced an sction by summons or caplas, etc., might suo olt an attschmeat In mid, provided that such section should not ap- ply to actions of treapass or cases in which the defendant had been hold to apecial bail. In the present case this attschment was fssued first, on prager afdavit, and tirea the capias, on another affidavit, bonda belog given in each vase, Before, therefore, the defeudants even liad s chance to giva bail thelr property was at- tached and they were also arrested. A motion was made yestcrday by the defend- anta' attorney to have the capias quashed, on the ground tnat the law, as sbave quoted, did not allow an atlachicent sgalnst the property and s caplas afinlnu the body at the ssme time, or, it dia, o “any event the caplas should have been begun first, and then, If pecesssry, an attachment inald fssued; that the latter was sued out be- forn the ¢sfendauts bad been allowed to yive Dbail on the capias, and thus they were prevented from taking sdvantage of the provieo {n tha scc- tion on attachments abovereferred to; and that consequontly the capias was irregular and void and sbould de guashed.
