Bicbuoxd, V»., June 3.—Boverly T. Crump,
junior couuel tor the detenu in the Clureri-
ui murder trial, addressed the court and jury
this morn in i for nearly two hours. The
atrtnfth of his argument lay in his .Sorts to
show from the evidence of the commonwealth
that it had been negligent in duty in trying to
force a conclusion ol guilty by making the
teetimony agree with the supposed theory of
murder, and that the murder was committed
by the accused. The euiolde theory was
advanced by the epeaker. He referred to the
condition of the body when it was taken from
the water, as an indication that no struggle
had taken place on the embankment of the re*
aervolr. The hairwae smoothly arranged, the
handkerchief about the neck was .uoruitlsd,
and the clothing showed no eigus
of disorder. The disposition and condition of
the clothing iound, the hat, veil, shawl and
S lovcs, showed that there was a purpose to
raw attention to the Isct that the woman was
dead, but the srtlelea could nothave been torn
from her without being injured. The speaker
further picked the evidence ol the prosecution
to pieces, and showed many discrepancies
and improbabilities. He assorted that the
testimony for the prosecution was frightfully
mined and incredible.
Judge W. W. Crump, senior counsel, began
the closing argument for the dofsnso by an
impressive address to the jury si to tho groat
responsibility resting upon thorn, and
the difficult task before them.
There were two cardinal points
upon which tho commonwealth relied for con*
victlon. The first was that the accused took
the deceased to tbe reservoir end slow bor,
and the second llist there was a piece of prop,
erty—e watch ksy—belonging to the accused
found there. There wet not a iiariirta of evi
dence to prove that the occused had erer beau
veer the spot. No human being bad ever
betid him makes threatagaiuetthedeooaaed.
There waa not the whlapcr ol e rootivo for txk-
lug her life. Virginia bed never raised auch
e monster si too prosecution hsd paint
ed the accused. The speaker then briefly wont
over tbe life of the prisoner, end dwelt upon
the alleged relations of tho deceased, and ac
cused, saying that was preposterous for tho
prosecution to ask tbe jury to believe that tho
sreuiid had seduced cud debauched his
cousin.
Judge Crump resits letter written by tho
deceased to Mrs. Tunslal, iu Juno, 1H.4I, to
show that she was tot dominated by tho will
of lbs accused, but nl that very time Lillian
was wrillug lovo letters to Cary Madisou.
There was not a lino (rom the accused to her
or from her to him that indicated more than
cousinly feeling between them. The spanker
said the unhappy girl bad a confederate in
Itlcbmond who mailed her the "Cnstie letter,"
and that that ronledarste was not the pris
oner, ee the letter Wes mailed iu Richmond,
March li or V, and it waa In evidence that the
S rlaonrr waa in Little Plymouth at that time,
udge Crump closed with an earnest anneal
for the prlaener. The court adjourned till to
morrow, when Mr. Meredith will make tho
elating argument for the prosecutiou.
Riceuonn, June 4.—The Wth day of the
Cltrverlut trial found the court room packed to
the full extent of its contracted capacity by e
crowd eager to hoar tha closing argument
of Obarlea V. Merldtlb, the
chief pruaeoutor in the cue. Mr. Merldith
began by complimenting end thanking the
jury lor their patience and etlenlion during
their long end trying confinement iu this out.
He referred to the Tuitnietiona given by the
court, and then read from tho authorities
shewing that almost ell evidence ia more or
leas circumstantial, lunoeent men, be uld,
have not only been sacrificed on circumstan
tial evidence, hut also on what ia kuowu in
the lew ea positive evidence. Ho explained
the Inatruclione in detail, end then went
ou to sum up end comment on
the petition taken by the defense ae

Ae the case draws to a close and the decision
ol bit fate becomes e question of e few hours
only, the prisoner seems to be more impressed
with hie terrible positlou. Hit seriousuees and
nervousness are pelatully apparent to.day.
Mr. Merldith occupied tiie afternoon ses
sion In going over the questions of identity,tha
movemeuts ol the prisoner end tbe deceased
on March 13, the day end night, the torn
note end ita connection with the prisoner, and
commenting upon, detailing and criticising
the testimony of the witnesses at greet length,
to ahow that it was not a coincidence alone,
lint circumstantial evidence of the atrongut
kind. He concluded at 8i55 p. m., having
spoken nearly nine hours. Hie tuminlng up
