JURY RETURNS VERDICT WITHIN THIRTY MINUTES FREEING
 HIM OF BRIBERY.
MUST STAND SECOND TRIAL
District Attorney Fredericks Says He Win Call Case on the Bain In dctment on Monday of
 This Week.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. t7.-Ciar- enee & Darrow, the Chicago lawyer, who was found not guilty today on the charge of having brlbed a pros pectiye juryman in the McNamara case, must stand trial on a second in- d.ctment, according to announce ment by District Attorney Fredericks immediately after the acquittal.
 Dafrow apparently was unconcern- ed over the statement of the prose- cutor. He was deluged with tele- grams from all parts of the country, which began pouring in within aa hour after the verdict had been given
 The courtroom scene after the reading of the verdict, thirty-four minutes after the jury had retired, was one that has had no parallel in this city. Jurors embraced the ac- quilted man and with tears stream ing down their cheeks declared it was the happiest day of their lives. Court officials, including Judge Hut ton and the half dozen bailiffs, joined in the congratulations and Mrs. Dar- row, to whom the trial was a con tinuous nervous strain, stood speech lessly happy with one hand in her | husbands and the other wringing those of the jurors,

 The jury was virtually unanimous when 1t left the box" Chief Counsel Rogers said. "The jurors themselves say that only one vital ballot was taken. although it was preceded by two others, cast as feelers." Mir. Darrows attorneys expressed iEoredulity when informed that there would be a trial on the Juror Bain indictment. They asserted that all of the evidence Tn the Bain case had been submitted at the trial just end ed Two o'clock next Monday has been fixed as tbe time for the trial of the second indictment.
 District Attorney Fredericks spoke bitterly late today of the verdict Of acquittal.
 We simply could not overcome the damnable atmosphere that coun- sel on the other side created in the court room" he said. As long as the court allowed them to do it, we were helpless"
 The jury that acquitted Darrow was composed chiefly of ranchers, a third of it's members being orange growers and a majority of the twelve independently wealthy

HOUSE RE-PASSES THE
 JUDICIAL APPROPRIATION
CUTS OUT THE CIVIL SERVICE CLAUSE AND SENDS IT BACK
 TO THE SENATE.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The legisla- tive, executive and judicial appro- priation bill, vetoed Dy President Tai. because 1t contained a seven year tenure for the civil service and pro- vided for abolshing the commerce court, was passed by the house again today. It now goes to the senate again.
 The only change the appropriations committee made in the bill after it came back from the white house was to drop out the civil service restric- ton.
 Before the senate acts on the meas ure it will go through the hands of the appropriations committee. Many members of the committee stated to- day they favored leaving out both of the sections to which the president had objected& While the senate un- doubtedly woAld approve a bill to abolish the commerce court many republicans and democratic leaders favor leaving the legislation out of the appropriation bill.
 Should the bill as passed by the house today go through the senate without change 1t Is believed the president again will veto 1t and force upon congress the alternative of ac- ceding to his wishes or facing a deadlock with the house, which would greatly prolong the session. Democratic house leaders believe the bill containing the abolshment of the commerce court if vetoed by the president would be re-passed by a two-thirds vote there. but 1t proba- bly would fail Of such re- passage in the senate.

HOUSE PASSED PANAMA
 JILL DI VIVA EubL
ADMITS AMERICAN coASTWISE AND SHlPBUlLDING MATERIAL
 FREE TO CANAL.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The Panama canal bill, as agreed upon by con ferees of the senate and house, was passed by the house again this even ing by a viva voce vote. As passed, the bill, which provides for the gov ernment and administration of the canal, contains provisions for the passage of American coastwise yes sels through the canal free of tolls and the admittance of shpbuilding material to the canal zone free of duty. The bill already has passed the senate and now goes to the president for his signature.
 A special rule prohibiting points Of order against the measure prevented Representatives Moore and Olmsted of Pennsylvania, republicans, from renewing their attack on the provi- sion for free admission of ship ma terials. As a result there was little opposition MT Moore was taken se- yerely to task by Representative Alexander, chairman of the merchant marine committee, for his allegations that the free admission clause would inJure American ship yards and work hardship on labor.
 Mir. Alexander held that with free material. shipping would be greatly benefited. He defended the admission of foreign built ships to American registry on the ground that American shipyards were not building vessels for the foreign trade. The exclusion O. railroad and trust owned ships from using the canal, in the opinion of Repres sentative Sims of Tennessee. was worth all the labor and time taken to mould the bill.
