Tragic End Of Outing.
For a week there had been talk Of
the Sunday school excursion to the
Lower Palisades. The mother Of the
young woman was fearful of the river
and for some days refused the daugh-
ter permission to go. The young
woman begged and begged and Sat
urday morning the mother yielded.
She gave her daughter permission to
go upon the express promise that she
would not go on the river. But Satur-
day afternoon the girl saw that most of
her friends were on the river in boats
and canoes, having no end Of fun.
She consented to accompany Joe
Lodge. her classmate, in a canoe, who
was not used to padding a canoe. but
it fairly we'll. After
some time spent in padding up and
down the river they went over to the
high rocks just opposite the Log
Cabin" and he stood up in the canoe
and began to cut their names upon
the rocks. This was shortly before 4
o'clock. In a few minutes he upset
the canoe and both were thrown into
the water which is very deep and
very swift. Neither Of them was able
to swim and but for the quick help Of
others both would have been drowned.
The young man was dragged from the
river half dead. 1t was long time
before the body of the young woman
could be found. 1t il believed that she
never rose to the surface after going
down the first time. A large crowd
OF searchers worked hard, but for a
long time they could ind no trace Of
the body. Mt Vernon was notified by
telephone and several automobile loads
went out as soon, as possible. 1t was
after s o'clock when the body of the
young woman was found. 1t was taken
to Mt. Vernon. The parents are heart
broken.

BARROW TO TESTIFY
DENYING BRIBE STORY
VIII Go on Witness Stand to Contra
dict Damaging Statement Of De-
tective discriminating Him.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 13.-fhere
is but little doubt that Clarence S. OAR
row win 90 Upon the witness stand
and seek to refute the testimony given
against him IN his trial here on the
charge Of bribing Mcnamara jurors.
A statement made by Earl Rogers.
Darrow's chief counsel, in argument
on Wednesday bears out this predic-
tion. Rogers declared that If neces-
sary he would put Mr. Darrow on the
stand to testify that he knew Sam
uel l.. Browne, chief detective for the
district attorney, had gathered evil
dence against the MeNamaras which
he regarded as insurmountable and
that, in consequence. it was absurd
to suppose that Darrow would APP
proach Browne in the manner to
which Browne had just testified.
This bit of testimony by Captain
Frederick's chief detective was the
of the proceedings. Browne
related that after the arrest Of
Franklin, barrow came to him near
the scene OF the arrest and said:
My God, Browne, what is all this?"
Bribery" answered Browne.
Isn't there anything that can be
done?" Darrow asked, according to
Browne, and added; This is terri
BILE"
u don't know of anything that can
be done; you win have to see Captain
Frederlcks." Browne testified he re-
piled.
IF had known this was going to
happen | never would have allowed 1t
to have been DONE" barrow said.
This Is terrible; you do the best
you can for us. and / win take care
Of you"
The prosecution attaches weight to
the conversation as indicating OAR
rows knowledge of the whole affair
In spite OF his declaration, and the
further fact that he limited at pay
ment to Browne If the matter could
be squared In some way.
