Authorities After Others.

The federal authorities believe that be-
fore the Darrow case is ended high off,
GERS Of the American Federation Of La
Dor will be drawn into the case, as De-
tective Burns prophesied. weeks ago. The
theory Of the federal officials is that Mr.
Darrow will eventually tell what he
knows about funds raised by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. 1t Is the idea
of the authorities that some money was
Sent here by trusted messenger to be
used improperly
1t has frequently been asserted that Mr.
Darrow was present when Franklin is al
legged to have given the bribe to Lock-
wood. Some of the testimony before the
grand jury was to the effect that Mr..
Darrow and Franklin were together until
Lockwood approached them at the time
the bribe Is alleged to have been given.
Il wish to reiterate the statement
which l. have made several times recent
ly-that Is. ] know nothing of any bri-
berry or attempt to bribe jurors or any
one else in the Mcnamara case" said
Mr.. Darrow after the indictments were
returned against him. ~ haze retained
Rogers & McNutt as my counsel, and
will fight the case to the finish.

Washington will be slush from one end
to the other tonight and tomorrow, at

a solid freeze and no chance Of q good,
hard rain. which would wash the streets
clean. With the melting snow and the
trees dripping from ice which froze thick

unpleasant things OF life.
Sleet and rain stuck to everything out

the sun rose in the rudy east. there was

However. the beauty faded as the sun

The wretched conditions Of the pave

the automobile OF r. X. Tyler, 73O 18th

Whether the indictment returned against
Clarence S. Darrow, the Chicago attor-
ney, by the county grand jury was based
on an alleged confession to that body by
Bert H. Franklin, former Mcnamara de-
fense detective. who is charged with jury
bribing. probably will not be definitely
known until the case comes to trial
Soon after the indictments against Dar-
row for alleged corruption Of Jurors in
the Mcnamara case were returned >yester-
day rumors became, prevalent that Frank
lin had told all lie knew of the alleged
jury bribing to the grand jury.
Neither the assistant district attorneys
who have had charge of the investigation
before the grand jury nor Franklin him.
self would make any statement in denial
The prosecutors declared the public would
be compelled to await the trial before
learning what evidence was in the pos
session of the state.
When asked If he had made any confess
sion to the grand jury, Franklin said he
would not issue any denial nor would he
confirm the rumor.
Darrow Employees Counsel.
No surprise was caused by the return
Of the indictments, as it had been
rumored persistently that the former
chief counsel for the confessed dyna-
miters would be involved in the investi-
cation into the alleged jury corruption.
His own attitude indicates that he had
reason to believe an indictment would
be returned against him. as several days
ago he employed Attorney Earl Rogers
to represent him.
Rogers was employed in the prOsecu-
ton OF the Times dynamiters soon after
the blowing UP of the newspaper plant.
and some surprise was Occa stoned when
In a statement issued by Rogers, the
attorney said he had absolute assur-
ances of Darrow's Innocence.
Darrow was the chief counsel in the
Quoted the defense of the Mcnamara
brothers. He was indicted upon two
charges connected with the alleged brib-
ing Of jurors in the Mcnamara case.
The charges. it is stated, were founded
upon the alleged tampering with Robert
NJ. Balm, juror. and the attempted brib-
cry of G.. n. Lockwood. a venireman.
which is said to have taken place a few
days before the confessions. made by the
two brothers, which ended the case.

Harry Dehm Of Earl Rogers Office to
have bail ready. Bail was fixed at $4,000
cash on each charge and was furnished
by Charles S Young and Judge Cyrus +.
McNutt
The charges are based upon sections ~
and 95 of the penal code. The first sec
ton deals with the bribing of an official
and the maximum penalty Is five years In
prison. Section 80 deals with the bribery
of any juror. The maximum for this Of
Tense Is ten years Imprisonment.
Mr.. Darrow awaited coolly for word Of
the grand jury's action in the Office of
Mr.. Rogers. Service of warrants was
performed in perfunctory way, Mr.. Dar-
row accepting the notification over tele-
phone, from the district attorneys Office,
and leaving Immediately for the court
house, which he reached before the grand
jury had finished it's call of the roll. He
was attended by his counsel, Mr.. Rogers
and Judge McNutt.

despite his declaration that he wanted
nothing for himself: that there had been
Il primary election. which had gone by
default. In which a person of the name OF

obtained rather meager vote; that Gov.
Wilson held Senator Smith to his bond.
and stood by the party pledge touching

right.

Watterson Says One Is Liar;
Ready to Prove It Is Wilson

With the declared intention Ito bring
to an end distasteful episode" Col
Henry watterson last night issued his
final statement regarding his controversy
with Gov. Woodrow Wilson. In it Col
watterson said he had engaged conclu-
sively 10 show that Gov. Wilson had
lied. and charged that the New Jersey
executive dared not face the facts
Col. Watterson declined to make public
any proofs In his possession. He denied
that Thomas F. Ryan had ever been ap-
preached for campaign contributions for
Gov. Wilson, but stated that the matter
had been talked over with Gov. Wilson.
and the latter had expressed the fear
that il the knowledge of a contribution
from Mr.. Ryan got abroad IT might do
more harm than good.
In his statement Col Watterson re-
viewed the incidents connected with his
meeting Gov. Wilson at weekend party
at Col. Harvey's house early in the sum-
mcr of 1910 Former Senator Smith was
present at that meeting and the guber-
Material campaign was discussed.

II make this detailed statement because
the public might we'll fancy from the
governors present attitude and tone that
/ had in some way thrust myself upon
him and that my friendship and support
had not been desired by him.
THE fortnight Immediately preceding
the interview at the Manhattan Cub, OF
which l have been at pains to say as
little as was needful to justice between
man and man. and men and men. had
done what 1 could In the interest OF his
campaign. I was met on my arrival In
New York by most urgent appeal Tor
money from gentleman OF distlnction'
closely associated with, If not actually
directing, the Wilson organization, ana IN
answer to this 1 was able at once to Sc
cure a considerable sum of money. The
meeting at the Manhattan Club was de-
signed still further to push forward and
perfect the work Of organization. Else
why, and for what, was the governor
there?

Las latterly adopted a poIcy of alternate
silence and sneering. Giving the lie
direct to my statement that was asked
70 help the financial end ,uf his. cam
paisn and declining my offer to submit
the proof of It's truth to a body of gentle
men and democrats equally concerned
with ourselves for the well-being OF the
party, he thinks to cloud the issue ana
escape it's menace by turning upon me
the irresponsible chatter of a literary
bureau which claims to live OF the I'M
naculate contributions OF SUBSCRIBERS 8
having wings, harps and halos, and
which has been for weeks footing the
country with every manner Of falsi1ca-
tion The very existence of this, to say
nothing of the sources OF its being,
should set honest people to thinking.
THE RYAN story, which has made such
an impression upon the unknowing ana
unrehecting, was, as Tar as IT related 10
Col. Harvey, a lie out OF whole clotn
Though Gov. Wilson knows this, he has
allowed it to circulate without WORD OF
contradiction. The attempt which fol-
lowed it's exposure iby me. to make 1t ap-
pear that / have intimated that appiica-
ton was made to MIR. Ryan. Is cut on
the same cloth, and Is characteristic OF
the duplicity which attaches itself to the
entire preceding of the governor and his
publicity agents.
.The suggestion Of Mr. Ryan was eag-
erly caught up by those agents Fancy
a political promoter refusing money from
anywhere or anybody! But when I spoke
to Gov Wilson about it. he said some un-
civil things of Mr. Ryan. expressing
fear that If the knowledge OF such a
contribution got abroad II might do more
harm than good-an opinion with which
entire proceeding Of the governor and his
matter went no further.
