scott Jackson on trial. The Jury Secured and Testimony Heard.

The Foul Murder of Pearl Will be Avenged.

Bryan

The trial of Scott Jackson for the murder of Pearl Bryan began at Newport, Ky., on Monday, and made speed in securing a jury that astonished the court and the counsel on both sides. Judge Helm presided. Counsel for the prosecution are Attorneys M. R. Lockhart, Ramsay Washington, Col. R. W. Nelson of Newport and Hon. S. A. Hays of Greencastle, Ind., the two last named being employed by the Bryan family. Attorneys lor Jackson were Col. George Washington and Col. L. J. Crawford ol Newport, and W. G. Sheppart of Hamilton, O., who will appear for Walling when his trial comes up. George Washington and Ramsay Washington, father and son, are on opposite sides in this case. In just three and a half hours after court, convened the jury was sworn in from a venire of ioo men. About thirty were examined before the noon recess. Of this number seven teen had formed stubborn opinions opposed the death penalty, foutwere peremptorily challenged, one by the prosecution and three by the defense, and nine were accepted. The noon recess was lor two hours and fortyfive minutes. After court convened again a full panel acceptable to both

sides was sworn in.

The names of the jurors are: Murty Shea, William White, John Roehmer, John M. Ernstweiler, Louis Scharstein, F. B. Moder, William Motz, Williard Carr, George P. Stegner, John F. Bachsman, Fred Geiskemeyer and David Kraut. After the jury was sworn the court ordered the prosecution and defense to read a list of their witnesses. Col. Crawford for the defense gave notice of excep-

tions to this order.

Commonwealth Attorney Lockhart read the indictment and stated what the line of the prosecution would be. ‘It is a part of my duty to outline some of the evidence,” said Attorney Lockhart, opening the case for the Commonwealth. Scott Jackson was at Greencastle, Ind., in 1895, where he met Pearl Bryan, youngest daugh-

ter of a respectable farmer.

‘Pearl was an unsophisticated country girl; Jackson was an accomplished, much traveled gentleman. The girl became his victim. Then the accused man wrote her to come to Cincinnati. She came Jan. 28. Jackson did not meet her; but a witness who will testify, met her. She met Jackson the following morning. That day he was seen frequently with her, not only in Cincin-

nati, but also in this State, up

Friday night.”

That night, the Commonwealth expects to show, he was with her in a vehicle and that he drove with her to the spot where her headless body was found Saturday morning. He was found later with her satchel and

clothing.

“We will show that Alonzo Availing knew Pearl Bryan. We will show that Jackson is the man who murdered that innocent girl,” said Lockhart, pointing his finger at Scott Jackson. The prisoner’s face turned

blood-red.

‘We will show that be was a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde—in Greencastle

tion. J She came into the courtroom clad in deepAiiournitiK' and when she threw back her veil she revealed a countenance of extraordinary refinement and intelligence. Her answers were self possessed end bef demeanor quiet, but there was an occasional tremor in her voice, and she mastered her grffef with effort. which was only too painfully apparent. Her eyes filled with tears us she haadled the clothing of the dead girl, and said; “I know’ this was my sister's dress, for I helped to make it.” Her words and manner made a deep impression on the jury, and Juryman Boehmer wiped tears from his eyes. When she had concluded her identification of the clothing Colonel Nelson asked her if she knew Scott Jackson. •1 do," she replied, turning slightly paler and keeping her eyes fixed steadfastly upon the Judge* Jackson, who sat just behind her right shoulder, raised his head in anticipation of what was to follow and apparently

nerved himself for an effort. ‘‘Will you see if you can point son out in the courtroom,” said

son.

Mrs. Stanley tifrned the revolving chair about slowly and faced Jackson. They were scarcely a yard apart, and their eyes met. Jackson's glance was firm, and he was apparently unmoved. Mrs. Stanley’s face was like marble. After a moment she turned back in her chair aud raised her eyes to the

Judge.

‘‘Is that man Scott Jackson?” asked Col-

onel Nelson.

‘ Yes,” replied Mrs. Stanley in a scarcely

audible voice.

Joseph Piercy. of this city identified Pearl’s nocketbook, which had been purchased at his store. Isaiah Vermilion, identified

Pearl’s handkerchiefs.

Lieutenant Atkinson, of the Ft. Thomas garrison, who was early on the scene of the murder, testified as to the condition of the body when found. He said that clotted blood, sufficient to have filled his derby hat — this was his own method of comparison—

was on the ground.

Dr. Carothers, of Newport, who performed the autopsy on Pearl Bryan’s body said that the victim was living when the decapitation was begun. A long technical examination was made to determine whether or not it 0011 Id I*e learned trom the condition of the body that the girl was killed where her body was found. Dr. Carothers said that lie conld not determine whether or not Pearl Bryan was killed where her body was found. He could merely say that she bed died from

oduced by the severance of

. instru-

ment in the hands of an expert.

Mi- Bryan, her son Fred and her daughter, Mrs. Stanley, sat during the whole hearing just within the railing at the east side of the court. Mrs. Bryan was greatly affected while her daughter was testifying, and wept frequently. Mr. Bryan sat with the attorneys for the prosecution near the wit-

ness box.

There was something of a senniion when Dr. Gillespie, of Greencastle, testified. Jackson frequented Dr. Gillespie’s dental office in Greencastle, and while there he became acquainted with Pearl Bryan. Dr. Gillespie first testified to his familiarly with Jackson’s handwriting and identified about a dozen letters as being written and superscribed by Jackson. A number of letters were addressed to Pearl Bryan, several were to Dr. Gillespie and one to Will Wood. All were written on the letter paper of the Palace Hotel, of Cincinnati. Dr. Gillespie then went on to testify as to the intimacy of Jackson and Pearl Bryan. IF^* said that Jackson had admitted to him that he had been unduly intimate with Pearl Bryan and that she was in a condition which made an exposure certain. Dr. Gillespie advised bim t<> marry her and Jackson said that he would never do that, i Dr. Jenkins, of Newport, stated positively that the woman was beheaded while still

alive.

with lewd women of both colors. We will prove that before the murder he exhibted a dissectingknife well suited for the awful use to which it was put.” The first witness called was John Huling, the boy that found the dead body of Pearl Bryan on Feb. 1. The second witness, Dr. W. S. Tingley, who saw the body two hours after its discovery and who attended both post-mortems, gave important testimony. Ho said the girl must have been killed where the body was found and not earlier than the midnight before her body was found; that the knife that cut' her head oft' was a sharp instrument, and the hand that Yielded it a skilled hand. Judge Helm aided in cross-examining witness. The defense objected, was overruled and took exceptions. Jackson was calm all day and took notes of the proceedings, especially of the testimony. The Cincinnati Enquirer says: “A number of depositions have been received from Greencastle. They are intended to support the allegation that Will Wood, according to statements he is alleged to have made to numerous parties, is the author of Pearl Bryan’s ruin. The testimony is to that effect, and they allege that Will Wood, just about Christmas of the year 1894, boasted of his illicit relations with Pearl Bryan, and when he was told that he was lying about the matter he offered to prove that his boasts were true. The deponent says that Wood said he had a “soft snap” with Miss Bryan, and in other slangy language spoke most disrespectfully of his

cousin.

Attorney Crawford proposes to make it exceedingly interesting for Wood, and confidentially stated that he would prove Will Wood the betrayer of Pearl Bryan, and that Scott Jaokaon had never done hdt wrong Should he succeed in establishing this to he a fact, it would remove the motive that Jackson is alleged to have had in putting her out of the way. Messrs. Crawford and Washington, the Newport attorneys for the defendants, have both said that they will “show up” Will Wood at

the trial.

The second day of the trial had a sensational feature. Sheriff Plummer brought into the courtroom a dummy representins the headless body of Pearl Bryan, clad in the hlood-Htained clothiuK worn on tit. night when t.he was murdered, and a ghastly looking object than tile seeming headless trunk it would be difficult to imagine There was a murmur of excited comment as Sheriff Plummer bore it iuto the Court, and some of the women in the courtroom uttered halfsmothered exclamations of horror. Mr. Crawford, Jackson's counsel, sprang

to hia feet at once.

“If It please Your Honor," said he, “I object to the presence of that thing in the

courtroom.

“ J supposed that you would object,” said Colonel Nelson, for the prosecution. You could scarcely have supposed other-

se,“ replied Mr. Crawford.
