Lawyer Charged With Jury
Bribing in Dynamite Case
to Know Fate Today
TEARS OF WASHINGTON
ON EXHIBIT BY STATE
Fredericks Cautions Jurors Not
To Be Swayed by SYM
pathy for Old Age

Los ANGELES. Cal, Aug. 17.-As
soon as court convened today Judge
Hutton began reading his charge to
the jury which will place the fate OF
! Clarence s. Darrow in the hands OF
the IL men who have listened for sew
eral months 10 testimony produced in
an effort TO involve the Chicago law
yer on charges OF jury bribing.
The closing argument for the state
"a terrific arraignment of Darrow by
District Attorney John ID. Fredericks
was concluded late yesterday Fred
ericks argument was frequently inter.
rupted by jurors or attorneys for the
defense. who wished TO ask questions.
In his final summing up Federicks
alleged that Darrow had been guilty
OF p separate crimes In preparing the
defense OF the Mcnamara brothers.
Fredericks closed his argument, by
, urging the jurors TO convict Darrow
TO set aside their sympathy for him
and by finding him guilty, put an end
forever to the corruption OF juries.
II by reason OF his age" he said,
"or for any other reason, you think
he Is entitled TO consideration or elem
ency, let the court extend II. Gentle
men, leave II with you and your God.
You can't make any mistake II you
lind Clarence s. Darrow guilty"
I Fredericks declared that II Darrow
was not convicted jury bribing would
be made safe forever. No jury, he
said. could ever get stronger or
clearer case than that which had been
presented in this instance. Speaking
OF the manner in which Darrows clos
ing plea had affected the jury, Cap
tain Fredericks called upon the jurors
TO be strong men I'm the name OF the
state and in the name OF decency"
George Washington he said,
"wept when he signed the death war
rant OF Major Andre You men must
do your sworn duty even though 1t
affects you likewise.

They haven't got anything on me;

Jeffries, Saturday morning, comment
ing on the allegations OF the Burns
detectives that they have uncovered
hundreds OF fraudulent enrollments In
the river precincts '1t Is far from
being settled that they have anything

enrollments in those precincts. There
Is a large floating population in the

work on the lake boats for the great
er part of the year may legitimately

Lake Seamen's union or those otner
places mentioned. There is nothing
| to prevent them from doing that. The
fact that they were not in those
iplaces when the detectives called
characters.
The same thing has occurred re-
peatedly in the past, and Mayor
Thompson, who was nominated by the
votes of such persons, never said
they were fraudulent. He never ques-
toned the legality OF them when he
was the beneficiary of them. He
never called detectives here and had
an investigation made when his poll
ticaf workers were busy in those pre-
cincts. He does II now merely TO
create more dust TO obscure the real
issue before the voters this year.

SO far. I have been unable TO discov-

HOUSE ANXIOUS TO GET
HOME, STARTS STRENUOUS
GETAWAY DAY CLEAN up
Legislative Appropriation Bill
Will Go Back to Taft, With
out Seven Year Clause
COMPROMISE ON WARSHIPS
Senate Expected to Agree to
Democratic Program Pro-
viding for One Only

WASHINGTON Aug. IA get
away cleanup OF legislation was the
house program today The hour or
convening was jumped ahead to l0:30
because of the lengthy program and
the members eagerness TO adjourn at
the earliest possible date.
Final passage OF the Panama canal
bill, submission TO the senate of a
compromise on the naval appropria-
tion bill to provide funds for one
monster battleship; passage OF new
legislative. executive and judicial ap-
preparation bill providing for abolish
ment OF the commerce court, and
custer OF Rep, Charles G. Bowman,
(Rep., Pa. comprised today's sched.
ule Only slight opposition was ex-
pected to delay proceedings.
Technical objections OF Reps. Moore
and Olmsted. Pennsylvania Republic
ans, 10 the Panama canal bill, were
before Speaker Clark for ruling They
allege that the conferees on the bill
exceeded their authority by providing
for free entry OF shlpbuilding ma
terials, and also that the free tolls
concession TO American coastwise
shipping Ia in violation of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty.
Passage today OF the Panama canal
bill was generally predicted, however,
following the speedy action yesterday
OF the senate in ratifying the com
promise bill After action by the
house, President Taft is expected 10
sign the bill without delay.
The battleship appropriation fight
was billed after the Panama contro-
versy. Debate OF one and a half
hours before voting on the authorize
ton OF one or two battleships was
agreed upon Rep. Foss, (Rep., Tll),
had an hour assigned to him 10 plead
for two battleships. The Democrats
were pledged. however, by their re-
cent caucus to provide only one bat
tleship. Acceptance OF one vessel
was expected from the senate. Fac
ing another veto. by President Taft,
! the house was also ready TO pass the
legislative, executive and judicial
bill reported late last night. This
bill, carrying appropriations OF about
$4,000, 900, is identical to that vetoed
by the president except that the pro-
vision OF seven years tenure for gov.
ernment employees in Washington. was
stricken out. II retained the pro-
vision to abolish the commerce court
II Taft again vetoes this because OF
the commerce court feature, senate
and house leaders both predict the
bill will be passed over his head.
Special business in the house today
was the move TO unseat T. p. Bow
man, because of alleged corrupt use
OF money in his election OF 1910. He
is charged with having spent $4,000
to pay watchers" at the polls, and
with having made fake purchase Of
an automobile to cover up such ex.
penditures.
