B0L0 PASHA'S BROTHER COMES TO HIS DEFENSE PA PIS. Fob. P..'. When the trial f Ho!" Pasha f r treason was resumed Mondav his b'-otlmr. Mnsig;mr Ibdo. prominent as a pulpit orator, took the stand in his hehalf. He declared at the utset that he w;is a patriot first of all, and was defending his brother because of the conviction that he was insane. Monsignor Hole's testimony was more in the- nat ire of a pleading than a deposition. He reviewed the entire- case. Speaking of the prisoner's .journeys to Switzerland, lie expressed the opinion that Polo Pasha's purpose in going to see the former khedive. Abbas Hilini. was to win liim over to the side of the allies. The prelate ridimled the idea that a man so wise in the ways of the world and so moally clever as Count von I'erns'orff. former Ht-r-man ambassador at Washington, could hav mistaken Hob pasha, for an independent political personage. The witness scoffed at the idea that any of the refe-re i es in Count von P.err.stnrff'.s telegrams to Berlin wtto the prisoner. Th- speetators m the court room who have been hostile to the prisoner throughout the trial. appat-d to l.e impressed b -' tli" edopienee of Iiis brother, who drove home- point after point, emphasizing them by striking tin- rail d the witness smnd v. ith Iiis r j t . 1(11 (.OltC.i: HALTS FVANSVII.FF.
