PERSISTENT PERSECUTION
OF Clarence Darrow-FaiIing 10 Con-
Wet Him the First Trial. Dis
trict Attorney Calls for
Another

Los Angeles. Aug. lS.-Clarence 6
/ Darrow. the Chicago lawyer who was
found not guilty Yesterday on the
| charge Of having bribed a prospective
juror in the dynamiting trial Of James
| Il. Mcnamara. must stand trial on a
| second Indictment. according to an an
nouncement by District Attorney
Fredericks Immediately after the ac-
quittal.
Darrow had been charged with an
attempt to brihe one of the jurors in
the trial of John and James McNa-
mara. charged with the murder Of
twenty three, in blowing up the build
ing Of the Los Angeles Times.
Judge Hutton in his charge TO the
jury eliminated the first count in the
Indictment, which related that Dar-
row had bribed Juror Lockwood.
The evidence, the court instructed
the jury, didn't justify them in find
ing a verdict Of guilty on the first
count. The judge also instructed the
jury that verditc of guilty could not
be found on the uncorroborated evil
dence Of an accOmplice or accOmplices.
Only one ballot was taken by the
jury, each of them writing not guilty
on their slips Of paper. There was a
the courtroom when Foreman Will
Jams stated that the jury had returned
verdict of not guilty. The crowd
then hurried forward and Darrow be-
came the center on an enthusiastic re-
ception.
Judge Hutton was one of the first
officials TO congratulate Darrow
"Hundreds of thousands on hallelu-
jams will 90 UP from as many throats
when they hear of this" said the judge,
as he grasped the vindicated lawyers
hand.
The jury that acquitted Darrow was
of its members being orange growers
and majority Of the twelve indie
pendently wealthy.
Clarence :. DarrOw, whose long
drawn-out trial upon the charge of
bribing a juror in the famous McNa-
mara case has just terminated in a
verdict Of not guilty, is perhaps the
most noted advocate Gn the legal
sense) of the case of organi ed labor
in the ranks of the profession of the
law in the United States, and doubt
less the ablest. He has represented
the labor unions and their individual
members in about every civil and
criminal case in which they have been
involved for many years, including
the celebrated Meyer -Pettibone-H Hay
wood cases in Idaho. 1t must be said
to his credit and as an evidence of his
ability as an attorney, that he in the
majority of cases achieved success.
