case, and that the men who actually
put up the money are being closely
watched, and will be arrested shortly
The names of these men are open-
iy mentioned in the rumors, although
1t is Impossible to find out whether
the rumors are based on facts. Can
tain John D. Fredericks, the district
attorney is closely guarded in his of
tices, and has given orders to his men
not to talk about the case in anv Of
its phases.
All that Browne would say, futher
than to admit the known facts in the
case was that I'VE have got the men,
and we will have no trouble getting
all the evidence in the case"
When asked specifically if one of
the most prominent persons connect
ed with the Mcnamara case was un-
der surveillance, and that a warrant
for his arrest would be asked as soon
as the three men now under arrest
are arraigned, he merely smiled and
said:
wait and see"
Clarence Darrow, chief counsel for
the MeNamars, was. seen at his Office
and stated that the first knowledge
of the case he had was derived from
information given him by THE news
paper reporters He said that he
could not even coment on it until he
had made an investigation, which he
has already undertaken. He denied
absolutely that the defense was in
any way connected with any attempt
to tamper with the talesmen, and in
timated that he considered the entire
matter a plant to influence public
sentiment against the defense at the
real opening of the trial.
The most peculiar development Of
the case is the fact that Lockwood
had not been actually served with
subpoena for jury service. His name
was one of those drawn by Judge
Judge Bordwell's decision as a mem
Der of the eleventh panel of yenir-
men, and the deputy sheriff who was
ordered to serve him reported that he
had been absent from the city for
more than a year and a half.
How he could be drawn into that
case is what is puzzling all today but
so far the district attorney has re-
fused to make any statement on the
matter One theory given publicity
bv persons close to the prosecution
was that this might not be the George
Lockwood who was intended to be
served, but this is absolutely impos-
sible of confirmation.
Up to II o'clock no formal booking
of thH trio of accused men had been
made and no statement regarding
when they would actually be booked
was made.
White and Lockwood were released
and the district attorneys office says
there is no charge against them.
Their statements were taken before
thev we're allowed to go. A formal
charge of attempting to bribe a juror
was then made against Franklin and
it will be decided later on When ne
will be arraigned.

During Benson's arralgnment Mrs.

letters before the jury, pointing an
accusing finger at Mrs. Patterson
with the other hand, he shouted;'

Barnaby Rich, in his preface to "A New Description of Ireland," pulp lished in 1900, writes:
 ''One of the diseases of this age is the multitude of books, that doth so overcharge the world that it is not able to digest the abundance of idle matter that is every day matched and brought into the world, that are as divers in their forms as their au- thors are in their faces. It is but a thriftless and thankless occupation, this writing of books. A man were better to sit singing in cobbler's shop, fer his pay is certainly penny a patch!

ALL COURTS MUST BE OPEN
Secret Proceedings of Any Kind Arc Contrary to Spirit of Our
 Law.

When two such eminent lawyers as Hannis Taylor and William E. Chandler contend that newspaper men may not properly be excluded from deposition proceedings be- cause such proceedings constitute a court, and all courts must be open, the general public may be assured that the point is well taken. Mr.. Taylor is one of the greatest living authorities on constitutional law, and Mir. Chandler, his colleague in a cause celebre, is likewise celebrated.
 While it was undoubtedly to the interest of their clients that the pros ceedings should be open to newspa- per men and consequently to the public, and while there might be fne-spun and even plausible argu- ments on the other side, it neverthe- less remains true that under our le- gal system all courts are and must be open courts. Secret proceedings of any sort are contrary to the spirit of our law, which wisely recognizes that publicity is the refuge and the defense of the weak and innocent. Any encroachment upon that prin- ciple is to be feared and resisted.
