District Attorney Cole Presents the Govern- ment’s Side to the Kincaid Jury. ‘When Mr. Wilson finished the closing ad- dress for the defense in the Kincaid trial at 4:40 last evening Judge Bradley decided not to go on further, but to adjourn the court until 10 o'clock this morning. This decision was made partly in view of the fact that tnere are no facilities for lighting the court room for a night session. Mr. Wilson's address was one of un- usual power. Ite interest was attested by the fact that during the whole day the court room was crowded. When the court met this morn- ing for the final day of the trial every seat in the court room was filled. District Attorney Cole began his closing argument a few minutes after 10 o'clock. Mr. Cole, in summing up, presented the gov- ernment’s case in a most effective manner. He threaded the evidence together in a most skill- ful manner, taking bits trom the witnesses of the defense as well as those of the prosecution and from Kincaid’s own testimc aguinst Kincaid at the time of the shooting. DISTRICT ATTORNEY COLE'S CLOSING ARGUMENT. Mr. Cole remarked at the opening that from Mr. Wilson's argument it might be inferred that the witnesses for the government were on trial for conspiracy, rather then that Kincaid was on trial for murder. ‘The witnesses for the government, he said, had no greater interests to serve than did the jurors. The defendant's life or liberty were at stake. It was right that he should be represented by the ablest counsel that could be procured for him. The judgment of every one would justify those gentienen in bringing forward in the strongest light th facts which they sa: ‘nd to exculpate Kincaid; to give undue prominence to the facts which, in their view, pointed to the innocence of the defendant. it was not the part of the govern- ment to give undue prominence to anything. It was the duty of the government to present as fully as possible the evidence and point out what the evidence proved. He was not aware of any prejudice on his part for or against this defendant. Itwas his duty to point out the evidence showing that a crime bad been com- mitted. A CRIME HAS BLEX COMMITTED. He was overwhelmingly impressed by the idea, from the evidence offered hore, that a crime has been committed. He had a desire, &n anxiety, that justice should not be defeated and that the law should be vindicated. Taul- bee was shot by Kincaid and he died from the wound inflicted. presumption was when any human life was taken the man who raises his hand to take that life assumes the burden of justifying himself before a jury of his countrymen. The questions here all turned on what occurred on those stairs on the 28:h of February, 1890. They had heard a grest deal about threats and antecedent circumstan but tha: bad been admitted in proof in order throw light on what occurred on the stairs. it mado no difference what threats or aekaults were made they went for nothing unless they found that when that shot was fired Kineau was in danger of his life or had reasonable grounds to fear that he was in danger of hii life. If there had been a thousand threats and & thousand assaults before that, if Taulbee did not avsault him then, Kincaid was not justified in taking his life. So the jury could see all de- pended on what occurred on those stairs. THE QUESTION OF SELF-DEFENSE. Mr. Cole read from tho instructions allowed by the judge on the question of self-defense to show that to justify that plea it must be shown that at the very time of the shooting the de- ceased commitied some overt act or indicated on his part an intent to carry his threats into execution. It must be proved that the def ant had reasonable grounds to believe he was in imminent danger of death or great bodily harm. By great bodily harm was meant some- thing more than mere battery. It must in- volve serious physical injury--not the pulling of an ear or something of that sort. Unless they could say that Kincaid had reasonable ground to fear death or serious injury threats fall to the ground. It did not make any difference what Kincaid's fears were, unless they believed that at the time Taulbee made an assault or attempted to do something to carry the threats into execution. He contended that no aesaalt was made at that time and no motion made by Taulbee at that time to indicate » purpose on his part to carry out a threat against Kincaid. CHARACTER OF TAULBER's TOREATS. He desired first to call attention to the character of the threats. These men—Tauibeo, the Congressman, and Kineaid, the newspaper correspondent—were frienda. The first rup- ture in their friendsbip was the in the Louisville Times, of which paper Kincaid was the Washington correspondent, of an article reflecting on Taulbee's character. Whether that publication justified Tauibee m the threats or not was not a matter of import- ance. The first threat was made in December, 1857. The last one testified to was a few dave before the shooting, as Col. Perry Heath testified. ‘hat’ was a conditional threat, that he would hold Kincaid responsible if the publications against him were continued. ‘Taulbee made these threats not that he ever in- tended to kill Kincaid, not that he intended to do him any great bodily harm, but because ‘Taulbee undoubtedly intended to frighten Kin- caid into stopping attacks upon his character. In the opening Gen. Grosvenor talked of Kin- caid asa cringing, shrinking sort of man, afraid to death of ‘Taulbee, and for two years in fear of death, and that they would find him from time to time apologizing to Taulbee. Had they any evidence of that kind. ‘Taulbee sin- cerely believed that Kincaid was tearing down his ter. Kincaidon the stand suid he did not do it; that Tuulbee was mistaken. Kincaid did not say that he ever went to important to see what the state mind was.

Kincaid bad told them of his meanderings there. They had enough to show that while there this bitterness was rank- ling in his beart, and, the government claime-t, was looking for Taulbee looking for bum to re ress this fancied or real wrong. : KINCAID'S CONVERSATION WITH REPRESENTATIVE WiLsox Mr. Cole referred to the conversation held by Kincaid with Representative Wilson beture the shooting to show that Kincaid was excited ond that Wilson advised him to be cool and de nothing rash. They could see Kincaid was in condition jo shoot Taulbee. That was from three to fiv® minutes before the abot was Aird. Kincaid left Wilson and says be next talked with the old gentleman, Morrison. Mr. Cole said he did not attech any impo: ance to Morrison's testimony et * the ~ ment that Kincaid took care to get Morrison's address. From Morrison be went to MoGer- mick and asked if he did not see the asssalt or him by Taulbee and MeCormick eaid he da.

Mr. Cole quoted Mr. Smith's statement that undoubtedly Kincaid would have been justified half a dozen times in shooting Taalbee cx fight. That idea he had imbibed the do fendant. That was Kincaid’s idea when he g*& ‘that revolver from his room, when he talked to Morrison and McCormick ‘after seeing Wii son. He left McCormick, says McCormich, in the midst of @ sentence, undoubt- edly because he saw ‘Taulbee go down the stairs, walked away rapidly and turned down the eters.

Did Taulbre make an assault on Kincaid or did Kincaid a; proach and shoot him without Taulbee kuowirg be was there. It was immaterial where the men stood on those stairs, except so far as <b bore on the actual occurrence. Mr. Cole then described the occurrence as :t had been described by €x-Doorkeeper Dor- | aldson. Doualdson heard voice sayiny, ~Taulbee, you can see me now,” and, turning, saw Kincaid, and almost immediately the shot was fired. What did Kincaid’s words refer to? They Went back to that encounter in the passagewa; when Taulbee said to Kincaid, “I want to you.” Those words remained in Kincaids nin LOVELL CORROBORATES DONALDSON. Mr. Cole referred to Lovell’s testimony as corroborative of Donaldson's. If Donaldso: and Taulbee were close together as Donaldsop said when the shot was fired, then Taulbeo made no rush at Kincaid. Donaldson said they were standing together, Taulbee having hold of Donaldson's left arm. “Lovell did not claim te Lave seen Kincni: ‘Counsel for the fonse would bave the jury | believe that Lovell and Donaldson bad got together and made up a story.

It was nonsense to undertake to couvince the jury that such men as Lovell and Donaldson would come here and make up ® story for, the purpose of convicting « man | against whom neither one of them had the | slightest fecling. | Lovell «aid that Taulbee and Donaldson were ding together when the shot was fired and he thought Taulbce had hold of Donald- fon's arm or hand. According to the testimony of the officers who were going up the steps there was no time for the altercation which Kincaid described. Mr. Cole referred to the testimony that Kin- caid said, when the question was asked right ho sbot this man?” “T after the shooting, “ he and did not add ted me this morning.” If it |were true, as Kincaid no: that Tuulbeo was asaulting him when he fired would not hincaid have stated right there why he bad | fired the chot? Lovell said in his testimony that Kincaid said, “I shot him because be in- suited me this morning.” A REQUEST BY MR, WILSON. Mr. Wilson asked the district attorney to re fer to the testimony of the two officers who ar rested Kincaid and Mr. Cole said be would be- fore he got through. Mir. Cole referred to the witness Donnelly. who said he heard Kincaid say “I shot him be- cause he assaulted me this morning.” were three witnesses of the goverument who concurred in the statement that at the moment wher. Kincaid would have been most likely to have told the truth as tothe motive of the shooting he said he xbot Taulbee because bee intuited nim or wronged him aseaulted him thet morning. ‘They dia ily as tothe words used, but that ydisagccement. Mr. Cole claimed that the fact as to what Kincaid’s declaration was proved beyond any rensonable doubt, and “that was proof positive, that no assault was made on Kincaid by ‘Taulbee. But that was not the on they bad. They had the words of Teall dead witness. No man could tell as well as be What was in his mind and what was his first in- timation that Kincaid was present. TAULBEE’S DYING STATEMENT. When Taulbee spoke those words he was standing close by the mystical line which di- vides time from eternity, across which he ex- ted in a few hours to step into the presence Ef the Maker towhom we shall all render e@inal account. His statements came with @ sanction stronger, more forcible, than that of any oath. It was equal to an oath adtinistered by God bim- seit, Did Taulbee tell the truth then? Taul- bee's life was at an ond; he had nothing te gaia and nothing to lose by telling that which was not true. He stated what the fact was. Dr. Bayne and Dr. Taulbee said his mind was clear. ‘The detense had introduced tostimony that, un- der such circumstances,sometimer a man's mind this case the man's mind was clear. It was commented upon that this dying de claration was moude to Twulbee's brother, im the presence of his sonand Dr. Bayne, not to the Ristrict attorney. To whom was 8 dying man more likely to confide bis last message than his brother? The district attorney had made the effort to secure a statement and the jury had beard why the attempt was unsuc- cessful. There was nothing even to show that either Taulbee or his brother ever had thought thet this statement would be used ine trial like this. Mr. Cole referred to Taulbee's dying declar- thot hin until be was tld after the shootngses him until be was corroborative of Doualdson.
