Tlc law yers for the Iefcn3e and prOHecutlon made their last preparations today for tho trial of Lawyer Burton YY Gibson,, who is accused of murdering the Coun tess Rosa .Mcnschlk Szabo. The trial is scheduled to take place before Jus tice ThompkliiK hero tomorrow. Both sides expressed themselves as confident of a successful outcome of the case, from their respective standpoints and both promised fresh sensations with which to awaken Interest In what has' come to be commonly known a? the most mysterious and confuslnk cae'e In the annals of New York slate. On I lie one hand the prosecution al leges that Gibson Is a latter-day rival of Stevenson's famous "Dr. Jcclcyl and ?dr. Tlydc." The slate accuses htm of being a silk stocking murderer: of hav ing spun a legal web about the ' fortune of the countess and .of having then lured her to death while ostensibly lnvitln her to a boat ride on Greenwood hike,.

To bear out the ' Innocence of thoir client, Gibson's lawyers will point to tho devotion of Mrs. Gibson. They hope to :jhow that there was no undue inti macy between Gibson and his client; that he was at all times nil ardent Jovcr of his homo, his wifa and their child. Accused Once Before.
