CODE TE[EGRAMS
/. ARE READ IN COURT
Tend to Contradict Testi-
mony Given by barrow.
Defense Surprised

Los Angeles. July 31.-Striking al
the main reliance of the defense-tha,
II mad been agreed to have the Nc
Namaras plead guilty before the brib-
cry charges-the prosecution in the
trial of Clarence S. Darrow produced
evidence today purporting to refute any
such claim. The evidence consisted of
kilograms which tended to show that
barrow had authorized on the day after
Bert Franklin's arrest an expenditure
OF $1,000 to regain documentary evil
dence seized by Indianapolis author
tiles.
After devoting nearly the entire day
to cross examination, which reyolyed
around the Indianapolis end of the
Mcnamara case, Assistant District At
torney Ford produced a code telegram
sent by Leo M. Rappaport of Indian
apolis, attorney for the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers. addressed to barrow and
dated November 20, 1911.
lie asked Darrow to identify Il anc
the witness with smile said he prob
ably could If 1t were translated fol
him. Ford Immediately called for the
blackboard and wrote the cryptogram
and Its translation upon It. The mes
sage as translated read:
May spend thousand to regain In
dfanapolis evidence?"
Another telegram sent by barrow IN
Rappaport the same day was then pro-
duced which, decipffered, read:
May spend thousand If necessary"
Another code message dated Decem-
Der /, the day of the pleas, revoked
the authorization to spend the money.
The defense apparently was surprised
to learn the prosecution had the key to
the code used by the Mcnamara de-
Tense. Ford said he had worked II out
himself
Darrow explained the kilograms pass
ing between himself and Rappaport by
saying they followed correspondence
of an earlier date. The Indianapolis
evidence sought by the defense con-
sisted OF correspondence files belong
ing to the International Association of
Bridge and Structural Iron Workers,
first seized by Indiana authorities and
later taken by federal officials.
We did want those documents then,
and we want them now" barrow de-
clared. Il instructed Rappaport to use
every legal means to recover them.
Il sent the telegram to Rappaport
on December ]. telling him not to
spend the money because I had learned
that the American Federation of la
Dor was not to furnish me any more
funds and i wanted to save $1,000 IL l

of the Mcnamara arrests until the be-
ginning of the trial and his relations
