Aside from the nominations, the on

section of the constitution which

NARRATION OF {. N.
 LOCKWOOD STOPPED
Defense in DarrOw Case Is Fighting Every Inch

Los Angeles. May 25.-Fighting every inch of the way. the defense in the case of Clarence s. Darrow, accused of brib- Ing a juror in the McNamara case, stopped temporarily at least at today's brief session. the narration by George N. Lockwood of the attempted bribery of himself by Bert II. Franklin.
 Lockwood testified he called upon Frank lin November at the latters office. at which time he, said Franklin told him he would like to see him on the McNamara jury and told him that there would be 5000 in 1t for him. The witness said he told Franklin that the offer was a com plete surprise and that he wanted time for consideration.
 The defense asked that the testimony be stricken out on the ground that Dar- row was not present at this converse tion and could not be held for Frankln's acts.
 Lockwood said he had forgotten some of the conversation with Franklin, but that Franklin had said he already had one juror who was "fixed' and that Lock- wood knew the juror.
 The defense again objected and Judge Hutton asked both sides to present their authorities and declared an adjournment until Monday afternoon.
 The ruling of Judge Hutton will de- termine whether evidence of alleged wholesale jury corruption in the Mc- Namara case shall be admitted as part of the states case against Darrow
