Counsel for Defense Informs Jury That Prosecution Has Failed to Connect Darrow With Bribery of Juror Lockwood
MONEY TRACED
 ONLY TO TVEITMOE
Chief Counsel Halts in Dis cussion to Go Into IT, revelant Matters Relating to Office of District At- tOrney
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH


 LOS ANGELES, Aug. 13.-Summing up the evidence adduced by the state against Darrow the former attorney of the confessed dynamiters John J. and James B. McNamara in his trial for al- legged jury bribing, Earl Rogers for the defense told the jury today that the prosecution had failed to connect Dar- row with the corruption of Juror Lock- wood through the instrumentality Of Best Franklin, the former detective who confessed to having passed the bribe money.
 The state had only proved, Rogers asserted, that Franklin had been in troduced as a spy in the ranks of the McNamara defense and that any one of the fifty thousand other persons in- terested in the great war between capital and labor, would have greater interest and a more impelllng motive than Darrow in bribing juror to ac- quit the McNamaras.
 Rogers declared that the state had not traced the alleged bribe money farther than Olaf Tveitmoe, the labor leader of San Francisco and that Dar- row had not been named in connection with the alleged bribery of Lockwood by two detectives, Franklin and John Harrington of Chicago, whom he de- scribed as the most precious pair oY scoundrelS that ever smircned thein souls to betray a friend.
 Rogers followed Appel, also of the defense.
 Before he opened his argument, large squares of white duck were stretched on frames in the court room display ing the names of thirty eight witnesses introduced by the state, grouped In squares that represented the issues developed during the trial.
 These constitute a diagram of the whole case said Rogers, and referring to a group labeled the main issue" he pointed out to the jury that only Franklin Harrington and Sam Browne, chief of detectives of the district at- torneys office had mentioned Darrow in relation to the alleged corruption or Lockwood. But here Rogers eVidently forgot for a time all his discussion or the diagram and the various phases of the case to violently assail Assistant District Attorney Ford, who during the opening argument for the state yester- day. declared that the district attorney would investigate the entire Darrow case which he asserted 'reeked with corruption"
 Rogers diatribe became so bitter at times that First Assistant District At tornev Ketch and later Ford appealed to Judge Hutton to rebuke Rogers Tor straying outside the issues of the case to accuse them of participating in ai- leged frauds at the last election or l Fredericks as district attorney and Tn the permission of gambling at sum mer resorts The rebuke administered bv Rogers made to the charge Of F'ord as to the alleged corruption in the Darrow trial was a great point before 1 the jury Rogers wanted to know who set spies upon the jury, who said the | ears of the jury might be stopped with gold Darrow will close his own de- fense The case will probably be In the hands of the jury not later than Sat" urday night. !

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

NEW YORK, Aug 13-PowerfuI banking interests acting through the New York clearing house committee came to the aid of District Attorney Whitman today in his efforts to lay bare the alleged corrupt alliance be- tween the police and he gambling fra ternity A virtual command was given to all the banks of the clearing house to furnish the district attorney with record of the deposits they may have received from any of the high police officials whom the district attorney suspects of having been collectors of blackmail from the disorderly eIe- ments,
 As a result, records showing that within the last eight months Police Lieutenant Becker, charged with in- Vestigating the murder of Rosenthal and accused of gambling graft made deposits in four banks of $5S,845 in his own name and that of his wife, were placed in the hands of the prosecutor.
 These deposits records shown, were first made in November after Becker became the head of the strong squad of gambling raiders and continued during the time Jack Rose says he was collecting graft for Becker. The dis trict attorney has been promised the records of Becker's deposits in other banks which did not have time to go over their accounts today It was dis covered that Becker has a large amount of stocks. bonds and other se- curities locked up in safety deposit vaults. That the total value of the po lice 1ieutenant's holdings would be found to approximate $2O0,000 would be no surprise to the district attorney. Becker's salary was $225O a year. The district attorney has received informa- tion that he may have put money in several banks outside the city.

DUCK RIDs ROOM OF FLIES
Management Of Chicago Hotel Will in
the Future Pin Its Faith to
Domestic Bird.

The manager of a big Chicago hotel
has found a very simple solution OF
the fly problem. 1t is a flock of ducks.
The ordinary hotel perhaps has no
particular accommodations for live
lucks; but in this there is a fountain
IN the center of the approaches to the
various dining rooms. The fountain
has a large basin, and Just by way of
novelty the manager several months
ago placed a few ducks in the water.
they padded around and enjoyed 1t,
and the guests enjoyed seeing them.
But, better still, the ducks also enjoy
ed the flies that attempted to enter
the dining rooms and feast upon the
good things therein. The fies-in
Chicago, at least-fy low; and ducks,
as any one who has rel seen them
knows. are especially quick In catch
ing insects. The consequence is, this
particular hotel, once troubled with
flies, now has practically none. And
the ducks, once lean to verge OF
scrawniness, are fat and sleek.
The duck method of disposing OF
the fly nuisance cannot, of course. OBJ
tain in private households to any de-
gree; but in this particular hosiery
the ducks have caused the wire fly
swatter and traps to be thrown into
the ash heap.
Perhaps next year the enterprising
manager will attach some sort of a
meter to every duck, so that at the
md of the season he. can tell how
many flies each busy fowl has disposed
IF with neatness and despatch.
