Witnesses Savagely Scored
Case May Reach , the
Jury Tomorrow. . -
With "argument, - ridicule, and bitter
Invective and' denunciation, ot the proae
cuHon and ws witnesses. Judge Bennett
strove today -to overthrow the govern
ment' case against Senator John H..
Mitchell. It waa the tepenlng argument
of the defense to- ths Jury, and Judge
Bennett brought to the occasion all the
skill and all the eloquence at hi com
mand. He made strong, appeal to the
sympathy of the Jurora and. frequent
reference was, made to the long public
service of the a'ged defendant :
- Satirically comparing the argument of
the prosecuting attorney-to--the-speech
of the Immortal Sergeant Buifux in the
oaae of Bardell v. Plckwtck, Judge Ben-netc-sald:
' ';., '-,'..-. ' ' '
. "I kikoW thr gentleman Is very f
mlllme.witk all good literature and I
have no doubt that the eloquent speech
of Sergeant Busf us ha come, to nis at
tention. I doubt not that he took it with
him to his room when he waa preparing
Lthe argument which he -Sad4to you."
For the Brat time since tne iriai d
aaa Senator Mitchell face wa
LyreaJ.h.ed In smiles, nd he shared the
amusement which pfrrtuwi-vj. tuun
room a hi counsel was ridiculing the
prosecution. Passing from-satlre to In
vective, Judge Bjmnett denoemced the
argument of the dlstrlc.t.Jittorney aa the,
"moat "unfair 'and disingenuous he bad
ever" heard In a courtroom." and he 'ao
cuaed Mr. Heney of attempting to preju
dice the Jury against the defendant.
Court Stop Attack. - '
' "Shame on. you. Mr. Heney!" he
shouted, turning upon the proseutlng at
torney ana snamng nia nnger in nis iace.
"If you have any manhood. If you have a
bit of good, . warm blood In your velna,
let the red bjush of ihimo ri on your
faoe." ' - .
A peremptory Interruption from Judge
Le Haven cut short the attack and -the
lawyer was warned that that style : of
argument would not be permitted, Mr.
Heney wa ffnmoved leltheT by the ridi
cule or the denunciation of opponent
and a quiet smile was the only change in
hi expression.
Judge Tanner" testimony wa. briefly
reviewed. It wa declared to-be of lit
tle'' value for the reason that "aome
where along the line he must earn "hut
liberty and his pardon."
"Henear-'holds Tanner and Tanner'

the attorney. - 'Tanner I Ilk a rat In a
