BOTH SIDES PLEASED
WITH STEFFENS' STORY
Deductions Drawn by Prosecu-
ton and Defense in
barrow Trial.
pecisl Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
LOS ANGELES. Cal, July 2O.-The de-
tense is elated with the testimony of
Lincoln Steffens in the Darrow trial. but
the prosecution is just as elated. The
prosecution reasons that II Steffens would
have done so much to free J. ]. Nc
Namara. knowing he was guilty, he
would have greater motive in assisting
Darrow. a friend, who is under accusa-
ton of much less serious nature
Lawyers about the courthouse today
prophesied that Steffens' testimony would
react against Darrow, IL not in the pres
ent trial. in the next one.
Balm Bribery Considered.
In the efforts of the defense to show
that Darrow would have no reason to
bribe Lockwood on account of the peace
negotiations pending, the prosecution
does not overlook the fact that no such
excuse has been brought forth for the
Balm bribery. But the Balm bribery is
not pont in the trial, as the specific
charge against Darrow is the Lockwood
bribery.
steffens testified that he tried to get
the state. by bringing influence to bear
upon the district attorney. to drop the
cases against Franklin and Darrow on
the bribery charges. although there were
no charges preferred against Darrow at
the time.
Question by Juror.
One of the jurors asked Steffens il he
believed in direct action-violence in in
dustrial strife-but the witness said he
had not made up his mind fully on that
point, although he was beginning to feel
that good will was not going to be sufi-
cient to settle the difference between
capital and labor
The defense announced today that
Clarence Darrow himself will be one Of
the witnesses for the defense.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-Secretary of Commerce and Labor Charles Ma gel has handed In his annual report at the same time a political bomb re- garding the handling of the mergers or trusts.
 Secretary Nasel in his report states that the present method of breaking up combinations or trusts into a num- per of smaller or separate parts by no means meets the whole trust ques- tion. That the trusts exist and a greater tax Is levied against the peo- pie upon the same commodities to provide additional cost of operation lnder what he terms the breaking up process.
 According to the views taken by he secretary of comemrce and labor he trust question has yet to be met The Sherman act provides for such combinations being deemed or found guilty as operative in restraint Of trade being dissolved. but that means nothing. It Is like a person owning m apple cutting the same into sev- aral parts.
