KRIE3 CAN1TOT BE . INDICTED MitcheU Is Held Up as Cleanest Man, : Financially, y in United States Senate. Robertson Cornea in for Fearful Grill ing From Counsel for Defense Prosecution Makes Telling Replies to Arguments of Mitchell's Lawyers PORTLAND, July 1. Senator Thurs ton concluded his argument in behalf of Senator Mitchell this morning. In the argument be grilled Mitchell's for mer private secretary, Robertson, char acterizing mm as a spy. He said no harsh words of Tanner, but asserted that the witness bought his immunity and that of his son by his testimony. He. dented that any suspicious circum stances attached to Mitchell's actions when he first heard of the threatened indictment, Thurston asserted that Mitchell was betrayed by all in whom he had a right to trust. He said that Mitchell was poor, alone and sick, and his subsequent actions were more those if an honest than that of a guilty man. He called attention to the fact that al though the senatir was the oldest in point of service in the senate, he was always a "boarding house" senator, too poor to own mansions, although he had an opportunity to make thousands cf dollars in the way the world calls honest. At the reconvening of court this afternoon District Attorney Ileney commenced his closing argument. He ney made telling answers to the ques tions asked by Thurston regarding the Kribs matter. The attorney called at tention to the fact that Kribs could not have befn reached by indictment because the lands named in the indict ment had been secured so long ago Lthat the crime was outlawed. He add ed that if Kribs had known this he Ucould not have : been reached by law, and perhaps the government would not have been able to secure any of the checks or evidence which it had gained It is now considered certain that the case will go to the jnry Monday. Compliments Heney. Senator Thurston, in resuming the thread of his interrupted argument of yesterday, wgan by paying a high tribute to the ability of District At torney Heney, afer which he said he eonld not understand why the prose cution of the land grabbers had been turned aside to persecute Senator Mitchell. He asked the jurors to give the defendant the benefit of all doubt. Yon must remember," he said, in, accounting for some of the actiona of Mitchell, " that this old man when the public press announced that he was about to be indicted in Oregon, was a verv feeble old man: he was lying so near to death that he must have hvard the fluttering of angels' wings. He was worn by his duties, and he was alone; there was no wo man's kiss 4ion his lips or brow to make the anguish lest keen; there was no little hands about him. He was alone. There was no one ready with help and advice, and be must act for himself. He acted with all the strength of; his nature against the statement that the government was upon his track, bent upon his disgrace. He was outraged at the reported charges of the government. He may have been alarmed, for he was a care less man. lie did not know the status of. the business of the firm and what Tanner may ha'e done. 'Why,' he may have said to himself, I have lived through the whisky grafts, the postal contracts, the suerar tariffs and the other means whereby I might have made hnndreds of thousands of dollars in a way that the world calls honest; I lived as a boarding house senator for all these v-car. Do they now accuse m of taking these few small dol lars?' Purchased Liberty. "What it must have meant for thU man, old, poor and lonely, the eleanest man, financially, that ever sat in tiro United mates senate, to.be confronted bv the accusation in the newspapers that h had taken momy. I do not think I should have acted just as Joha H. Mitchell Tiid. I am still strong, and would not have acted in the same way, but I believe every act of Sena tor Mitchell can De reasonably plained." 1 Mr. Thurston then reviewed and ex plained the coming of Mitchell to Portland, his conversation with Tan ner, the Kribs case, the examination ci tk firm's books and the surprise Mr. Mitchell exoressed at the condition ia which they were kept and the manner lso. He denied that Aiitcneu ver Saked Tannvr or his son - to perjure themselves. He said he did not wisn to be harsh with Tanner, but he pitied iim for the position ; in whtcn se was, the pHant tool of the prosecution, for ipoa its say-so depended his librrty A that of his son. I do not sup- nose," he said, "be was told what to testify to, but the price of his liberty has been paidJ I trust that under that TrrnTi cement fcS'will not be prosecuted, Und I hope, Tanner, that in the provi- lence of God yourwui not. imj uiay xrinted. , Hi- !" ' " : . T am seldom vindictive, and I like ko consider all men with charity, but t come 'now to this star witness oi me rosecutlon, Mr." : Robertson, bright, tsen, vicious, brought up, almost, by MitchelL' and .entrusted with hi pri rate affairs." He found no fault with ?Krtnn testifvinsr before the grand rery, but with his later actions snd those which preceded that aet. ' Gen tlemen," he said, "If you were in this position you wotrid have wings to your feet and have made haste to meet Mitchell and told him of his danger, but this man locked it up in his breast. Then he had that pretended interview with Mitchell .when he rose up in his righteous -wrath' and told him he was a liar. Lord, he wouldn't have the cour age to call a yellow dog a liar. He says he was bold as a lion, but he was really the " servile office boy. You might hang a man on this evidence, but I would not convict a yellow dog on orach testimony." ( FRANCE ACCEPTS PRINCIPAL.
