PREPARED BV HATHAWAY A JOHNSON CHARGES REASONABLE. 22 S. Jackson St., Greencastle.
Cincinnati, May 20.—Twelve men have* been select-ed to decide the fate of Alonso Walling, charged with the murder of Pearl Bryan, and the trial will soon be under way. At the opening of the third day’s session of the court but one juror was needed to till the panel. Milton Walker, a Fort Thomas farmer. was the first talesman questioned. He was accepted by both sides. This completed the panel once more. “Have you any challenges ?” asked Judge Helm. The commonwealth answered that it had not. Colonel Washington scanned the jury u moment and challenged Walker. He said he had no challenge to make as to the 11 others. George Girty, another Fort Thomas farmer, was th“ii accepted as juror the 12th, hut the defense challenged him a moment later. John Baltzer, George Dittoe, Charles Barnes, L. D. Ross, August Seither, Joseph Wolff, William Linett, William Ewing, John Eaton, Philip Millar, E. A. Witkamper, Peter Ader, Philip Lawerbeck, John Stolle, J. V. Guy, George Almosleehner. William Listermau, George Hessen, Henry Feldman. Milton Hall each one answered the customary question and each one said one or two things. Either he had an opinion or he had scruples against hanging. Anton Dietrich took the 12th chair for only a moment, when the defense challenged him. “Have you any scruples on capital punishment?” Colonel Nelson asked of Stephen Ritter. “Yes, sir.” “Are you opposed to hanging a man ?” “No. I think they both ought to he hung," said Ritter, and he was excused. Walling laughed once or twice at the replies of the talesmen. In fact, there was much laughter through the entire courtroom. Nick Yaeger, Frank Ziegler, William Stevens. Ed Showers, Ed Lear, Stephen Ritter, Thomas Windrain, Jr., George Arkeuau, J. B. Kessing, Enoch Parsons. Henry Staple, Henry Stcckling, Oscar L. Graser, A. S. Speckmau, Peter Schneider, Henry Marks and Adam Sprau were each excused. James O. Ware said he had formed an opinion, but thought ho could render a fair and impartial verdict. He took his
seat.
This filled the panel, and there were no further challenges; the jury was complete at last. The jury was sworn in as a body at exactly 11:20 o’clock. Court then adjourned for the day to allow the attorneys on both sides to consult as to a mass of unimportant evidence that will not be introduced. “I have been informed," said Judge Helm, “that much time can be saved by granting this request.” The jury as completed is us follows: John A. Krift, foundryman, Dayton. Frank Gritfith, cigarmaker, Dayton. Robert H. Miles, teamster, Dayton. Peter Wern, ropemaker, Dayton. Charles Federer, saloon is t, Newport. Jesse Batson, motorman, Glen Park. Frank Schoh, grocer, Dayton. M. R. Moran, lumber dealer, Belle-
vue.
Fred A. Deitz, cigar packer, Dayton. E. M. De Rose, machinist, Bellevue. James A. Cello, manufacturer, Day-
ton.
James O. Ware, flour and feed dealer, Newport. Attorney Washington filed a motion, supported by an affidavit, asking that Sheriff Plummer be excused from raking charge of the jury. Judge Helm granted the request and Deputy Sheriff George Hindman will hereafter have charge of the jury. Commonwealth’s Attorney M R. Lockhard began the proceedings for the prosecution. He first read the indictment against Walling and then made a short statement of what the state intended to prove. It was practically the same as was proved agait st Jackson, a complete chain of circumstantial evi-
dence.
The first witness called for the prosecution was Lieutenant Benjamin Atkinson, U. S A., stationed at Fort Thomas. Attorney Hayes questioned the witness. Lieutenant At dnson told of the lay of the ground a >out where the body of Pearl Bryan was found on the morning of Feb. 1, anl described in detail the condition of the body and clothing of the murdered girl. Colonel Washington stated that he would admit that the body found was that of Pearl Bryan and that the clothing in court was hers, but Colonel Nelson reserved his right to prove the fact, and Lieutenant Atkinson in turn identified each article of the clothing in court as the same he saw on the body of the headless woman on J. D. Locke's
farm.
Lieutenant Safferar.s described the tcene about the body when he came upon it on the morning of Feb. 1. Cross-examination by Colonel Washington brought out nothing new. Court then adjourned until 2 o’clock. John Howling, the farmer’s lad, who found the headless body of Pearl Bryan, was the first witness at the afternoon session, He repeated his previous testimony, telling how he made the awful discovery while he was on his way to
work.
Under Colonel Washington's crossexamination the boy said that he could not describe the exact position of the corpse. W. S. Boyce, who was breaking stone on the Alexandria pike when the body was discovered, was the next witness. He described the place “where the head was cutoff.” “I object to that,” exclaimed Colonel Washington. "Ho is stating an infer-
ence.’’
The objection was not sustained. The hair which Mr. Boyce found in cuts in the ground and the hairpins lying nearby were offered in evidence. W. H. Newell, a reporter, described the bloody privet bushes. He said he xyas presept in the undertaker’s establishment when the body of the murdered girl was taken from the box in which it was brought to Newport. Judge N. L. Beiinett said he had served five years ip the Rockies as a United States soldier, and he had seen many bodies of men murdered by Indians and “Greasers.” It was blood which spotted tbo privet bushes at Fort

Cincinnati, June 2.—Just before the trial of Alonzo Walling for the murder of Pearl Bryan was begun in Newport yesterday Judge Holm is•ied an order removing Scott Jackson from the Newport jail to the one in Covington, Ky. t giving as his reasons that the Newport jail was unsafe and unfit for him. Covington is just across the Licking river and the jail there is very much safer and in much better condition. Jackson was removed in the afternoon. He did not want to bo removed, preferring to remain where ho lias made a few friends. Then the, hearing of Walling's case was resum’d. The cross-examination of Dr. W. S. Tingley, coroner of Campbell county, was continued by Colonel Washington. He said that the head was cut off by some person having knowledge of surgery and anatomy, as was especially shown by the neat manner in which the head was severed, and taking into consideration that the decapitation was done in the dark, that a human body lying prone on the ground at an angle of SO degrees, with the head severed and the neck at the lower end, the blood, if it were in a liquid state, would be emptied from the body. Dr. Tingley described the position of the body as lying on a terrace, neck down and the hands up close to the stump and the feet crossed. He said it was impossible to tell if death had been caused by hemorrhages, from the blood found on the ground. Under redirect examination Dr. Tingley said that no puncture of a hypodermic needle was found on the body at the postmortem examination, and that he had examined the vital organs and found no evidence that death was due to other causes than hemorrhages. Ben Weaver, a soldier, stationed at Fort Thomas, was the next witness. He said he saw a pint and a half of blood on top of the terrace upon which the body lay and some hair in file blood clot. It was blonde hair, and the witness identified the exhibit. He also identified two hairpins as being the ones he found at the head and feet of the body. He testified to finding the piece of shawl, or fascinator, which he gave to Sheriff Plummer, hut which lias never been introduced iu exhibitory testimony. Photographer Ciarlo was the next witness. The ghastly photographs of Pearl Bryan's body were produced and identified by the picture maker. Then they were passed to the 12 jurors, who looked at them earnestly. The defense had three photographs made of the fence and hillside along the Alexander pike, between the point. where Coachman Jackson says his passengers left the cab, and the point opposite where the body was found. The prosecution raised strung objections to the introduction of the pictures at this time, hut the court ruled for the deseuse. An exception was reserved. Dr. Robert Carothers, who conducted the autopsy was the next witness. He gave a description of the body and said the skiu was retracted from the neck wound and from the cuts in the left hand. He gave considerable testimony of a purely technical character. Judge Helm asked the witness if the girl’s death could not have occurred from violence before the severing of the head and the same conditions be found which were present. The witness answered iu the negative. Health Officer J. O. Jenkins was with the other physicians at the postmortem examination. He became the next witness, and described the severed nock and the wounded hand of the girl. “One stroke made the three cuts on the girl’s fingers,” said Dr. Jenkins. “The cuts were made during life.” Dr. Jenkins said that there was no evidence of an attempted operation, nor could the mark of a hypodermic needle be found. He went carefully over the surface of the body, noting a number of red marks. He was confident that none of the marks was the wound of a hypodermic needle. The cross-examination began, and Dr. Jenkins surprised Colonel Washington by stating exactly how far blood would spurt if a body were decapitated. “If a body lying as this one was found at Fort Thomas, were decapitated, the blood would spurt six feet eight inches. I have arrived at the conclusion mathematically, from the records of two decapitations in Paris,’’ said the doctor. l)r. F. W. Fishback was the next witness. From what ho saw at the postmortem he believed the girl's head was severed at a single stroke. All the organs were carefully examined. Save a little blood in the lungs and a clot in the pulmonary artery, no blood was found. The girl must have been alive when her throat was cut. Dr. G. I. Cullen of Cincinnati was called. He testified that he thought the girl was killed by the severing of the head. Mary E. Stanley, Pearl Bryan’s sister, was tiie next witness. She described the vaiiscs and all thn articles of upparel which l^er sister Pearl took with her as she left Greencastle for the last time. She identified the green-checked wrapper iu which the girl’s body was found, t he bloody valiso us that of her brother’s. The jewelry was identified, *s well as the hairpins found at the scene of the murder. Pearl's mother was the next witness. She said she is 68. She told of her family, of her daughter Pearl and of Scott Jackson, who first met the girl at the Bryan homestead. Pearl corresponded with Jackson after he came to Cincinnati. "I found six or seven letters and a
card or two,” she said, “and I have given them all to the attorneys.” Court ndjom-ned at 5 o’clock.
Cincinnati, June 3.—There was a d"lay of nearly an hour in resuming the trial of Alonzo Walling for complicity in the murder of Pearl Bryan yesterday owing to the imnaneliug r.f a grand jury for the regular term of the criminal court. Druggist Foertmeyer of Bellevue was the first witness called to the stand. He recounted having seen Walling and Scott Jackson in his store the last week in January, and of havi; r seen a blonde young woman in their ' mpany on the streets in Be.) r.'ue. \ itness said it was about 11 o’clock in the morning of the fatal Friday. Under cross-examina-tion he said that Jackson and Walling had been iu his store on a previous occasion. Mrs. Weeks, a spiritualistic medium of Cincinnati, was the next witness, and she told the story of Jackson and Pearl Bryan having visited her house on the day prior to the murder. As her testimony was irrelevant as to Walling, Colonel Washington interposed an objection. The counsel on both sides made speeches on the objection, Colonel Nelson saying that it was the desire of the prosecution to establish clearly and concisely that Walling and Jackson had conspired to murder Pearl Bryan. J ndge Helm sustained the objection. The examination of the witness proceeded. She identified a photograph of Pearl Bryan as a likeness of the woman who had been at her house in company with Scott Jackson. Allen Johnson, the negro porter, employed at Dave Wallingford’s saloon, told the story of Jackson and Pearl Bryan coming into the saloon on the Friday night, of seeing them leave in a cab, driven by Walling, and identified the clothing found on the headless body as the garments worn by the woman who accompanied Jackson to the saloon. A most rigid cross-examination was made of Johnson by Attorney Shepherd. Witness said ho thought Fred Albion drove tha cab up to the saloon and that Jackson wore Walling’s cap. He denied having seen Walling, Jackson and Pearl Bryan at Wallingford's on Wednesday night previous to the commission of the crime He said that Jackson had a heard on that Friday night. Under re-direct examination. Colonel Nelson was overruled in his efforts to bring out the alleged attempted bribery of the witness by Attorney Shepherd, and was severely admonished by the court not to insist upon his efforts in that direction. Chester Mullen, the owner of the cab that George Jackson claims to have driven to the scene of the tragedy, containing Jackson, Walling and Miss Bryan, was the next witness. He would not positively identify Walling as the man who hired the rig. Witness said the vehicle, when returned in the morning, was left on the sidewalk, covered with mud, and the horse was tired and muddy. John Foster of Bellevue said he saw Walling, Jackson and Pearl Bryan on the river bank at Bellevue Jan. 30, between 11 and 11:30 o’clock. Colonel Lockhart looked surprised, for, according to the theory of the prosecution, the day was Jan. 31. Foster testified that Walling asked him about a skiff ferry. The young man gave him a cigar. This ‘tallies with Druggist Foertmeyer’s testimony that Walling had an extra cigar when he left the store. Foster identified Pearl Bryan’s picture as a photiigrapn of the young lady he saw in Bellevue. After John Foster's testimony had been given Dr. It. J. Gillespie of Greencastlc, Ind., was called to the witness box. Attorney Hays sought to introduce Scott Jackson’s damaging admissions to Gillespie, hut the court ruled against him. Then he asked to introduce Scott Jackson’s letters to Pearl Bryan, but the court again ruled adversely. Attorney Nelson argued against the decision, and for the first time iu the trial Colonel Washington asked that the jury be taken from the room. It was done. Nelson said: “We are eutith o to introduce these letters and conversations if we can show there was a conspiracy between Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling. If wo show conspiracy we have a right to show motive on the part of the man in the conspiracy.” Colonel Nelson outlined in part what the prosecution will prove before it rests its case. “Wo will show that Walling admitted that ho knew Jackson was bringing Pearl Bryan here to murder her, and that he himself mot the girl and did not warn her. This fact alone is enough to prove conspiracy.” Judge Helm would not change his position. “Nothing about Scott Jackson can he introduced iu this case, except to prove him the principal in a crime iu which Walling aid< d, or to prove a conspiracy. These letters and conversations are prior to the time any conspiracy could have been formed,” said the court. Waiter \V. C. Martin of Heider’s hotel, on West Fifth street, testified that Walling came into the hotel at 3 o’clock on the Saturday morning when the crime is thought to have been committed. Walling did not register, and the witness took him at once to his room. Night Clerk Rogers of Heider’s was the next witness. He corroborated Waiter Martin. Washington pointed to Walling’s name on the register under date of Thursday night, with erasure and rod lines. “That name was never written there Thursday or Friday nights,” declared Rogers. Saloonkeeper Dave Wallingford was the next witness. “Pearl Bryan was in the saloon with Scott Jackson both Thursday and Friday nights of the week of the murder,” said Wallingford. “I was on the outside both nights; and on Thursday night Fred Albion was with Walling." William Tegoler, shipping clerk for the John Church company, described the meeting between Walling and Pearl Bryan about 11 o’clock on the Friday morning before the murder. It was on Eltn street, near the John Church company’s store. Frvil Bryan, who was anxious to return to Greencastle, was put in the | witness box at 4:40 o’clock and repeated his testimony given in the Jackson trial, identifying the satchels and other articles. I W. B. Pinkard was the last witness. He told of seeing Jackson, Walling and Pearl Bryan together in the rear of the , Atlantic garden at 2 o'clock Friday
MINERAL RUBBER.
Tho New Stato of Utah Has Strange Froak of Nature.
Mifttcrlul from Which Gam Shoe* for tho Multitude .'lay lie Marie—It Grow** In tho Ground Idko rot ath.
Utah, the newest of the states, seems to be a mineralogicul freak. Mr. lieorge Eldridge, of the geological survey, says a Washington (i). C.) correspondent, was sent out there a few weeks ago for the purpose of looking up certain natural resources, and he has returned with a most interesting report. Among other things, he found groat deposits of mineral rubber—enough to make gum shoes fora large part of the population of the United States. It is black, and it locked and felt exactly like ordinary rubber. “You see, it is quite elastic,” said Mr. Eldridge, bending a piece with his fingers. “There is no telling how many valuable uses it may be put to in the future, but 1 imagine it will be employed largely mixed with the vegetable rubber of commerce. For a roofing material it has already been proved excellent. In the mining towns of Ltnh mineral rubber is utilized commonly for roofing, being prepart'd in sheets consisting of a layer of burlap, with the rubber on Ixith sides. Nothing could he more thoroughly waterproof. Because it is so new not much is known about this peculiar stuff and its possibilities. Only a few tons of It has been - mined near the Uintah reservation, where it is chiefly found. It occurs in veins, hut the number and size of the latter are not reliably known as yet.*’ Mr. Eldridge took up from his desk a queer-looking, blackish chunk of something not easily Identified, that felt soft to the touch. “That is another unexplored mineral,” said he. “It is called mineral wax, and is found in veins like the mineral rubber. It has not been mined at all, but many uses for it nre likely to be discovered in the future. To electricians it will lie valuable, doubtless, inasmuch us it is one of the best insulating materials for employment.^n their business. But here is another interesting mineral substance, also from Utah.” The specimen of this latter looked exactly like u piece of obsidian, or black volcanic glass. It was hard as any rock. “That is gum asphalt," said the expert. “My chief business in Utah was to examine the deposits of this material. It is a wonderful substance ami represents a great mineral resource that has hardly been touched os yet It is nothing more nor less than an exceedingly pure kind of asphalt, and its important usefulness is in the manufacture of varnishes. “The substance is found under conditions so extraordinary that nolxsly has been able to account for them very satisfactorily. The deposits are chiefly within and in the neighborhood of the Uncompahgre reservation. You ur*' walking across the country and come iqion a queer-looking streak that runs straight as an arrow files. You brush away the sand and beneath it you find that the streak is perfectly black. It is a vein of gum asphalt. “There are many such veins near the eastern edge of Utah, and some of them run over into Colorado. Thev have a tendency to nin parallel to each other, with a trend from northwest to southeast. They vary in width from a quarter of an inch to IS feet, and they are from half a mile to six miles in length. Nobody knows how deep they are. The greatest depth reached is 12.-) feet. Tims far mining for the stuff has hardly got beyond the prospecting stage. The veins arc perfectly vertical. “These veins of asphalt represent cracks in the crust of tho earth, made in a distant geological epoch and sub staut hilly filled in with the gum asphalt. The stuff lias much of tho appearance and hardness of jet. Of course it is only useful for making black varnishes. No, it will never be used for paving stn'ots unless, perhaps, as an admixture with ordinary asphalt to improve the quality of tho latter; it is too valuable, you see. I cannot tell you from what source the substance was originally derived. It is believed that all asphalts are of vegetable origin. We kmtw that during the eoal-fo-niiiig period vast accumulations of vegetable material were laid down in beds and became transformed in various ways, subsequently by chemical processes. According to conditions governing, they were metamorphosed into deposits of coal, petroleum or bitumen—the last being what we call asphalt.”—St. Louis Republ ic.
