WILBUR wRIGHT's PLANS
Will Probably Be Carried Out by His
Brother.

New York, June 6.-Unless the wishes
of Orville Wright are overruled by the
board OF directors of the Wright com
pany, the secret plans of the late Wilbur
Wright. father of aviation, to make aeri-
al navigation as safe and practical as
travel by an ocean liner or railway
passenger train, will be carried out by
Orville Wright and Alexander 0glvie
the English aviator, who assisted Or
vile Wright last fall in making expert
ments at Kill Devil Hill, n. c., with a
motorless glider.
This fact became known Tuesday when
il was announced at the Offices of the
Wright company here that A. +. Barnes,
secretary and treasurer of the company,
had been summoned to Dayton, o., fo'
a conference with Orville Wright. While
in New York five weeks before his death
Wilkur Wright confided to friends that
Mr. 0gilvie probably would join him and
Oryille in perfecting improvements that
he was confident would completely reyo-
lutionize aviation.
Nothing definite can be said as To
who will succeed Wilbur Wright in the
factory at Dayton until Mr.. Barnes re-
turns to New York" said Mr.. Barnes
secretary. "orville Wright is expected
here within few weeks, when the
matter undoubtedly will be settled"
For years Orville and Wilbur Wright
have worked to develop other devices
necessary for the perfection of the aero
plane. which it is known they both con-

NEITHER GOMPERS

Prosecutor in barrow Case Says Nothing
Is Intended to Intimate They
Knew of Jury Bribing.

Los Angeles, June 6That the prose-
cution merely desired to place in evil
dence the fact, alleged by them, that
certain sums Of money aggregating
about $4,000 had been sent to attorneys
for the Mcnamara defense, was started
yesterday by w. j. Ford, assistant dis
trict attorney, in discussing the placing
on the stand of y. II. Flather, cashier
of Washington, ID. G., bank. Mr.. Ford
said that the calling of Flather as a
witness was not an attempt to incrim-
mate Others with Clarence barrow, now
on trial for the alleged bribery of a
juror in the Mcnamara case.
Mr. Ford added that no attempt would
be made by the prosecution to show that
either President Samuel Gompers or Sec.
rotary Frank Morrison OF the American
Federation of Labor had any guilty
knowledge of the alleged corruption of
jurors and witnesses in the Mcnamara
case.
at is unfortunate that the impression
was created continued Mr.. Ford, that
we intended to cast any reflections upon
Mr.. Gompers, Mr.. Morrison, or any other
high officials of the American Federation
of Labor, In producing the ledger ac-
count of Morrison as custodian of the
Mcnamara defense fund in Washington,
we only intend TO prove that large sums
of money were withdrawn and sent to
Mr. barrow"
The effort to have the ledger's page,
the defense fund account, adj
mitted as evidence was expected to be
when court met yesterday.
Up to adjournment late Tuesday, the
attorneys for Darrow had succeeded in
keeping it out.
The prosecution intimated that if its
examinat ton of Cashier Father were noe
further obstructed, but little time would
be required to conclude it, and Franklin
was expected to resume the stand before
the noon recess yesterday.

that bureau from making Investigations

amendment says that special agents and

rate OF not exceeding S6 per day. 1t is
learned that this would prohibit the
employment of experts at a salary OF
more thap 81 800 a year. which is so low
a salary that, in all probability, the
resignation Of half dozen of the best
men in the bureau of labor would be
forthcoming upon the passage Of the bin,
and the future employment of highly

would be impossible.
