NEAL WITHOUT TESTINOMY. Mo Oannot Overthrow the Cass Made by the Btate, ARGUMENTS ARE BEING MADE. Wssistant County Attorney Shea Opens for the Prosecution a is Fol- lowed by Mr. Estelle for the Defense. As early as 0 o'clock yesterday morning the €ourt room was crowded with a motley assem- blage eagor to hear the arguments in the Neal murder tr The morning's procecdings were opened by Mr. Gurley, counsel for the defendant, filing @ motion to have the fact that Neal, the prisoncr, was not permitted to accompany the Jury on their visit to the Pinney farm to view | | flecting upon this little girl, is too apparent the scene of the tragedy, made part of the re. cord of the trial. This motion was om- panicd by the afidavit of the court reporte covering the ruling of the court granting the request of the prosecution to have the jury visit the farm, County Attorney Mahoney, in his answer to this motion, submitted his afMdavit showing that the counsel for the defendant were pres- ent when the order of the court granting the Jury permission to visit the Pinney farm was made and that they offered no objection and that they thus waived their right to have their client present. He also presented the afiidavit of C. J. Smyth showing that the counsel for defendant had waived their right 10 have their client present at the viewing of the premises in open court. Mr. Gurley responded, stating that the court journal was the only legitimate record that could be introduced in the argument, and that the aMdavit of Mr. Mahoney forti: fied by one from his partner, did not make their answer a part of the court record, He said further that he might have said to Mr, Mahoney that they would waive their right 1o have the prisoncr present at the viewing of the premises, but that that did not cont vert the facts contained in the motion be thecourt. He therefore asked the right to in- corporate the same in the journal proceedings of the court. Mr. Mahoney replied in a vigorous manner dwelling upon” the fact that Mr. Gurley hix self had waived the right to h the prisoner resent, which right was neverdenied the de- fens: Mr. Estelle said that whatsoever he or Mr. Gurley might have remarked to the county attoviey about a waiver amounted to nothing until brought to the attention of the court, ‘which had never been done until at that mo- ment, Jud Clarkson said the motion would be overruled as the court, desives a complete record of the pro- ceedings, and that the ofticial record of the court reporter justified the ruling; also, that the specific understanding of the county attorney was that the counsel for the defend- ant had waived their right to have the pri oner present on the occasion in question. L was an attentive listener to this argu- ment, rarely removing his eyes from the fac of th lawyer speaking, The prisonerwas as calm and composed as the most disinterestod spectator in the audienee, and looked mor Tike @ dudish graduate than a suspected mur- dever, His shock of black hair had been care- Tessly brushed intoa semi-pompadour, and his gold‘framed eyeglasses were tilted foppishly over his nose.” Once in a while he turned in his chair and took a searching look at tho heterogeneous assemblage packed in the and itorium, returning to his normal position with u look of refined disgust. + Mr. Shea, assistant county attorney,opened the argument in behalf of the state, He by speaking of the importance of the id the promptuess it deserved in the He then defined the dutie of the jur He referred to the fact that they had often heard of jurors in important cases who had failed to do their duty, He said that the evid was such as must have unqualifiedly on- vinced all who heard it—jury, court, audience, lawyers that that man ~[advanc ing and pointing his fingerin Neal's face], b leved - Allen 3 b murdered the old man's wife and te her finger the ving that would convict him, The old couple, he continued, ime in life when they could resistence, decrepid, trembling and helpless as b could have been bound and od, and [again turning to the prisoner] could hav ;(!uh u their cattle and yet allowed them to ive, Mr. Shea then spoke of the grades of mur- der, holding that Neal was either guilty of murder in the first degree and should hang or should go fromthe court hou Neal, during th 4 never I moved his eyes from theassistant prosceutor fuce, and the only change that could be noted in_ his immobile featurds was a slight heightening of color. Mr Shea described in detail the meeting of Neal and old man Jones, their friendly con- versation with reference to the Pinney farm, the stock, andso forth, and just how, during all that talk, Neal was cencocting his devil- ish scheme of murder. He told how Neal had executed his foul design, how he had shot the old man down and how he had hurriedly “Naburied him. — He explained how the old man ‘had evidently been murdered first, how the two shots required to remove him had at- tracted his wife from the house, how Neal hud rushed upon her and how, as she fled in affright, had shot her down, putting four bullets in her back us ;hn- essayed to reach the shelter of the house. In recounting the incidents of the trip from South Omuha to the Pinney farm between Neal, Mottand Dee, Mr. - Shea said that at 8 lott asked Neal for a chew of tob- al had said, *I do not chew tobacco,” asmuch as to say that that wus a virtue which he possessed. A virtue by that man, Who wis one of the blackest fiends of hade: possessinga virtue, Oh no, ho diduw't chew tobaceo, but if they should’ let him go free, and they should cross his path and happened to have a wateh which he wanted, he would swim in their blood to get it. That was the kind of an animal Neal was. Mr. Ex d to this statement, and court, who said: "he statement is improper and must not idulged in again.” M. Shea then gave a resume of the evi dence, bringing in_vividly the scene where Neal had stopped Dee from taking an armful of hay from the stack where old Mrs. Jones lay buried beneath the loose timothy, Dee wanted the hay to pluce under the calf they were going to being in with the rest of the stock for sale. All the incidents of the drv ing of the stock in were detailed and an in- teresting story told of their disposition. Adjourned until 2 o’clock. In the Afternoon M. Shea resumed his argument in the af- ternoon by going buck to the night of FPebru- v 4, aud recalling that in the evening be 30 and 8 o'clock Neal visited Carpen- ery stable weaving Mr. Jones' over. SAnd right here, gentlemen of the jury,” said the speaker, “I waut to ask how you can construe it otherwise than that this man | Neal, who wore that overcoat, is the bloody | handed assassin of old Mr. Jones! 1 ask you to think of the sepulcher which Neal dujz in the manure for the body of that white buired old man—think of the blood that oozed through the walls of that horrible sepulcher, and state if you can that that blood can be on any head otlier than the head of this already- proven villain " b “Ilie bill of sale given by Neal when he re- ceived pay was taken up. Thespeaker handed it to the jury and each man was requested to serutinize it cavefully “Noto with what great hasto the bill was written by this fellow who now fices you with such a strong face," Chancing to refer to the prisoner as “that man with the eye glasses on,” Mr. Shea stopped short in” the explanation of some minor detail connected with the horse deal, and shakiug his finger at Neal, exclaimed “And, gentlemen of the jury, I will tell you right here that [ shall tell “you something about those eye glasses of this prisoner before 1finish. Those oye glasses ure a subterfuge, a mockery and asnare. Yes, gentlemen, I will tell you all about those eye glusscs later on “In teling you, gentlemen, that wo are morally certain of huving the murderer of those old people, 1 need, in order to prove it, only refer to the fuct that the counsel for the prisoner has not contradicted a single bit of our eviden “Nowwithstanding the fact that counsel for the defense have been sealous to stem the great and overwhelmingly hopeless tide of evidence against their brazen-faced client, M. Gurley of that counsel went too far when he tried to impugn the statements of that little girl, Racek. Mr, Gurley tried to make it appear that that little girl enter. tained some regard for this double dyed vil- lian, O, Gurley, Gurley, I thought you too pure, too fair a man for such a thing. Gur- ley went at this little girl from the very first ving manner that_would have dfscom- and disarranged the thoughts of t neaviest man that lives, When Gurley got her in this condition he sneeringly glanced at you, s much as to say, ‘See, she tells a differ. ent story from what she did’ at the prelimi- nary examination,’ Under such circum- stances the little girl did not repeat verbatim the testimony which she had given at the pre- liminary hearing, but, ntlemen of the y, Gurley nor stelle did could not, say that she | gave answers in this court materially different than at the examination. In wean- ing, and in fact—in fact clear and convincing that little girl's statements were the | same, “The fact that this little girl and Neal played with a baby together at about the sate time is used by Mr. Gurley. The utter insignificance of this incident, so far as re- to require a word of comment from me. +'Neal never wore glasses in South Omaha, in' Omaha, or at the Pinney f; It became necessary for him to wear these glasses ouly ter he had left aska Among the jewelry which he bought with money obtained” from the sale of stock which he had stolen was a Knights i ¢ charm. On that charm were the Latin words, *In hoc signo vinces, which means *In this sign we conguer.’ “Ah, gentlemen of the jury, how ill-befit- ting the purchaser were those words! How befitting were they to the state! ‘In this sign we conquer,’ and mainly by those arti- cles of jewelry, or even that one urticle, T be lieve that you, gentlemen of the jury, will say that we have conquered. To my mind it is ible for you to say aught clse than that ve ed. We have shown the truth of Neal's guilt by theso very things, especially the old gold ring which Neal took from the body of Mrs, Jones after he had shot the life out of it.” In closing, Mr. Shea called attention to the fact that there were but two verdicts possi- ble—guilty or innocent. He pleaded with the jury to render a verdict which would send the assurance to every farm home in this ate that the inmatés were safe from the pistol of the assassin. Mr. Estelle began speaking at 3:30 o'clock, opening as follows “It was the pleasure of my friend who opened the prosecution of this case to open it with an appeal to view the evidence in_this se in a cool, calm, collected munner. Allow me, gentlemen, to say something of the dutics of a juror. I helieve it the duty of every juror to con- sider this case by the evidence procuced and the law in the case. When I gointo a crowd, into a mob, no one realizes what he is - doing. 1 have been in a mob, and 1 remember that I thought and acted as'did those about me, and not for myself. When one of the greatest cities in this world was about to be destroyed by a wild, unreasoning, unthinking mob, one man, who thought for himself and was calm, collected and composed, stood forth. It was Lamertine. He cared naught for the tur- moil about him. He stood for quiet thought. He led, instead of being led by that awful mod. “Gentlemen, today you are standing in the midst of a great mob ‘that 15 clamoring for this man’s blood. Oh, gentlemen, be reason- able! Stand on reason. Calmly, quictly with justice in your hearts con: iu this case, fter counsel for state had announced that they wanted to deal fairly with this matter, Mr. Shea comes forward with such exhibition and with such words as have, 1 ant, never before been heard before a ajury in this county. What a departure “The in this case relics entirely ou cir- cumstantial evidence, and they say that all cir- umstances point to Neal as the guilty one. If the circumstances in this case are just as consistent with the innocence of this man as they are with his guilt, then, gentlemen, you must acquit him.” Procecding, Mr. Estello referred to the celebrated case of the State v stantial evidence. The case went to preme court twice, and both time: dict of guilty, pronounced in the lowe was affirmed. After the defendant had spent ten years in the penitentiary he was pardoned by Governor Thayer. In that case, as in this, it was proven that defendant had stolen goods from the vietim. The s v thought it very strange if he couldn’'t shake hands with Thurston, Cowin 1 Watson without Mr. Shea Lalking about una: d Then the speaker went on expatiating on the assertion that nobody had been produced who could swear that “Ed Neal,” “Ed D. Neal “Caton,” “Livingston,” etc., and the pris- oner at the bar were one und the same, Ho considered this to have been a fatal omission on the part of the state. ral of the witnesses,” said the i which the jury forable to us. Take for instance, Ed O'Brien, city editor of Tue Bee. He wds a good witness, He spoke honestly, and yet, gentlemen of the jury, if you believe the testimony given by Bd O'Brien you will acquit Neal, our client here. ““I'he untold wealth of Douglas county is all behind the state in this matter,” “was dwelt upon long and loud, while the fact was that that same “‘untold wealth of Doug- las county™ was paying counsel for prisoncr, the speaker himself and Mr. Gurley. Then the speaker announced that he would consider the case under three heads, First, Neal's transactions on February 8 and 4; second, his transactions after the ates, and third, his transactions after his arrest. Next came the rtion that it looked far more likely that the killing was done on Feb- ruary 3 instead of 4. Assuming with great emphasis that it did occur on the 3d, the speaker went on to show how the testimony of the Racck girl :h'unillwl the prisoner be- cause it accounted for his presence nearly every hour of the #d. The speaker pleadey that'if Neal was guilty the county attorney would let. Sherman and_Shellenberger Admitting, for the sake of a story, that was the murderer of old Mr. and Mrs. Jones, the speaker said that no sune person would ever have returned to the scene of so awful a crime simply to obtain pelf. *Call our client a criminal, call him nervy. say ho hus a bad face, u bad record, anything that you will, but for God suke don’t call him anidiot ! This exclamation was made as if in one breath and with deafening vehemence. We won't try to controvert the fact which was tried to be shown up by that old gold ring. No fact, no showing was made, Andas for that Knight Templar charm—it ouly a play in the hope of touching some member of the order who by chance might be upon this jur; “Then there is that pald detective affair! Gentlemen of this jury, thereisn't a detective in this country but that for 810 a day would give testimony to hang any person in this court room.” It seemed utterly impossible for the speaker to let the name of Witness O'Brien alone, trying apparently by every trick of words at his command to give still greater emphasis to his assertion that Mr. O'Brien’s testimony, or vather the failure of “the latter to lie while upon the stand, would go far toward acquit- ting his client. Mr. Estelle closed with a general appeal for & verdict favorable to the prisoner, s court adjourned to 9:30 o'clock this morniu —— Never neglect a constipated condition of the bowels, or serious results surely follow, such as piles, impure blood and many chronic complaints, ' Burdock Blood Bittérs is the remedy.

It Outrageously Asks Judge Dundy to Step Out of Court. THE PROTEST OF THE BAR. Its Leading Members Denounce the Villainy and Urge Him to Re- main in the Interest of Many Happy Homes. Judgo Dundy heard arguments yesterday morning to determine whether or not he was disqualified to try and determine the Helfen- stein cases. An unusually large number of lawyers and others were present, all of whom were interested in tho case, The attorney for Helfenstein presented a protest several days ago against Judge Dundy tryingthe case forthe reason that E.S. Dundy, jr. was suppo to have aremote in- terest in the property known as Paulsen’s addition which is a part of the property in litigation, The complainant stated that he had dis- covered fr filings in the ofice of the recorder of deeds that the young man in question had owned the property and that since objection had been made, had_on M 17 given a ed to the Paulsen estate, for the property unde consideration He argued therefore that the court should have declined to sit on the case without having been asked. He quoted from statutes 615 and first Curtis showing that g judge who had any interest in a cause befc him was disqualified to_act, as as was als a relative was interested in any way. Attorney Holmes for the defendants stated that J. B. Terrill now held a quit-claim deed to the Paulsen addition. There had been a number of warranty deeds issued since kip” Dundy had beld ownership in the v, and thought, therefc under the circumstances that Mr, Dundy was free and clear of any interest in the property. Mr. Ambrose said that he did not believe there had been a kindred application of the kind in the country. The relative of the court had conveyed his interest in the picce of land in controversy. He had watched Covell's reading of the statutes for one word and that was that the judge must have a personal_interest. He cited several s in contradiction of the court’s personal or contingent interest. “If Helfenstein,” he said, “is a resident of Omaha, there. should bo_some relief outside the law,” to which a voice in the audience said : 'he claim club.” “Yes,” said Mr. Ambrose, ‘“with A, Hanscom, president, and John' I. Redick, sce Fotarsil This attempted_throwing the matter out of the court's jurisdiction, he said, was merely a subterfuge to levy blackmail upon the pres- ent holders of the property. John I. Redicl, who has a personal interest in the property, said the attempt to take the case from the court was not to serve the ends of justice but to squeeze 20 per cent of the vaiue of the property out of some poor man who was making a home for himself. When the case comes up,” he said, “T will show you a clear twenty years' ownership in this property.” In jusiice to those whose homes and property were jeopardized he urged the court to try the case, as the objection presented ~was merely to defeat justice, He urged that if the court’s son had been released from inter- est in the Paulsen addition the court should try the case speedily. Twenty years ago,” concluded Mr. Redic “if these lnwyers of 'Helfenstein had tried this business they would have been put in the river.” “This raised considerable laughter. J. L. Kennedy said: “This is not a question of retiring your _ honor from & case involving the interests of a It means the transfer of the case o some other circuit_court, perhaps in Towa, and the transfer of witness, books of record, cte., to say nothing of its continuance for a long period, greatly to the injustice of the defend- ants. 1 believe that your honor has the back- bono to determine “whether your son has contingent interest in the property or not, he certainly can have no more. The Helfen- stein intevests are not trying to transfe he 150 to get justice but to defeat it.” John D. Howe argued that the plaintiffs were but trying to aim a shot at the court sensibilities in the matter by arguing a remote interest of his in the matter. It would rescmble, he thought, the old maid's dream. She dreamed that she had been marricd, had & child and was one day boiling soap’ in the back yard when the child fell mto the kettle and spoiled the soap. “The counsel, knowing the seusitiveness of the court, was attempting to play upon it, but he thought the cvidence did not sustain the ob- jection and ¢ the case might be speedily tried in Justice to_the people whose interests and homes were involved. At the opening of the afternoon session of the Helfenstein case C. S. Chase and John C. Wharton spoke in about the same strain as had the attorneys who spoke during the morning, pleading that the cuses be brought to a speady trial. One or two othei attornays spoke briefly, asking that the cases be tried at ouce. Judige Dundy then asked Mr. Covell if he had anything moro to say, but that gen- tleman said he had made his argument. The court in summing up the arguments said tnat he could not see how he was interested in the case, with the possible exception of three or four cases in which it was said that his son was_incidentally interested. The h parent s interested in a good many but he could not see t it impa ability to try cases. He was often called upon to try cases involving the validity 6f taxcs, but he was interested in taxes and it had never been claimed that he was not qualified to try them. The cases that his son was supposed to be interested in he felt a delicacy about deeid- ing, but he could not see how "he could be at all futerested in the othors, nor why he should not try them. Mr. Covell will make a motion this morning that the cascs involving the Paulding addi- tion not be tried by the court. “Why doesn't he take Hood's Sarsapa villaflis the general inquiry of fricnds when a person suffers from any disease of the blood.
