EVOLUTION TRIAL ' BROUGHT TO END; APPEAL GRANTED (Continued from page One) This was granted. Court Room. Dayton, Tenn., July 21 —William Jennings Bryan's Bible testimony under examrlnation by Clarence Darrow, was today ordered expunged from the record. The duel between Darrow and Bryan was ended. Judge Raulston held that the tes- ■ timony was not relevant to the only 1 issue of the case, namely, whether Scopes taught that man wJs descend ed from a lower order of animals. ' A laugh went up from the defense 1 table when Raulston announced his 1 decision but Darrow rose respectfully to enter an exception. ■'Since the beginning of this trial, the judge has had some big problems to pass upon,” said Raulston. "There is no way to know immediately if I decided correctly. If I made ■ a mistake it was out of the head and ■ not of the heart." Darrow then asked Judge Raulston ■ to bring in the jury and ask them to i find Scopes guilty. The jury was sent for- > After Darrow had taken his excep- . t on Bryan took the floor.

defense counsel yesterday," he I "So I will give to the press a state-] | went of the questions I would have asked and let them broadcast it as they broadcast the proceedings yesterday. "I object, your honor.” Interrupted Darrow "Now, what’e all this ] about?” "I will have to depend on the justice of the press to print the questions which I would have asked you” Brjan said "I suggest that, you take us both 1 out,” said Darrow, “and you ask your ' questions and let me then answer 1 them.” 11 General McKenzie suggested that < after the trial has ended Bryan and Darrow get together at a public dis- ] mission and there air their views. 1 The jury was then brought into the i room. ( Agreement was then reached between attorneys for both sides to dispense with argument and give the' case at once to the jury. This did not amount to a change' of Scopes' plea ot “not guilty," how- 1 ever. “There was nothing else left for ns to do," Malone explained. "We could not offer our own witnesses. 1 We could not continue examination * of Mr. Bryan, and the testimony that we offered was expunged from the record.” Darrow told the judge there was no use wasting any more time. “We claim," he said, “that the defendant is not guilty of violating the law, but as the court has excluded all testimony except that Scopes taught that man descended from a lower which I ffannot contradict, there is nothing left for us to do except to ask your honor to instruct the jury to return a verdict of guilty"! Judge Raulston then recessed while he dictated his charge to the jury to the court stenographers. 0 Funeral For Ernest C. Rurode Thursday Funeral services for Ernest C.

The suit is the result of a long disput* over whether the money should be used for repairing the two Methodist churches in Princeton or turned over to the general Red Cross fund. The Rev. Russell Phillips, pastor of ! the First Methodist church, and T. M. McDonald, a trustee of the church, are plaintiffs. ( Bishop Frederick Leete, of Indianapolis. and the ftev. George Murphy, I superintendent of the Evansville disi trict of the Methodist church, and ! Red Cross officials are named defendants. i Immediately after the tornado Rev. Phillips made an appeal to Methodist .church of Indiana and raised $13,000. I The money was given to the Red Cross for distribution. Bishop Leete demanded that the money be used for repair of the ' Princeton churches and members of the two congregations exclusively. ,• Red Cross officials informed Bishop Leete they would comply with his request and give back the money. . I The suit seeks an injunction to • prevent the Red Cross from surrend I 'ering the $13,000 to the Methodist , church.
