Los Angeles, CAL, June 6.-That 1t
would trace to the Mcnamara defense
fund of the American Federation OF
Labor and that Samuel Gompers had
sem direct to Clarence Darrow the
money alleged to have been used by
Bert H. Franklin to bride jurors in the
Mcnamara trial, was the assertion
made on Tuesday by the prosecution
in the case of the Chicago lawyer on
trial accused of having bribed Juror
George N. Lockwood. Franklin was
subjected t. a severe cross-examina-
ton during which he declared that
Mr.. barrow had given him the infor-
nation concerning the alleged bride
money.
Washington, June SIS Samuel
Gompers said of Detective Bert Frank
Inns testimony in the Darrow trial:
"That is an absolute falsehood made
of whole cloth. l do not know Frank
lin and 1 have never had any dealings
with him. I did not send any money
to him or to anybody. I do not handle
any money.
There is nothing to this, and it is

STERLING MEN SURE
CLAIM A LEAD OF NINE HUNDRED
MAJORITY FOR SEN
ATOR.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol CITY, the Various
State Institutions and From
Many Different Parts OF
the Sunshine State.

Pierre.-The only figures available
on the senatorial ace are those at he
Sterling headquarters here, which
place the plurality of Sterling over
Gamble at 900. The semi-oficial re-
turns filed with the secretary OF state
sustain practically these claims so far.
The late returns cut the majority
down to the figure given, after deduct
ing counties which We're last to send
anything definite.
Semi-officiaI figures on 3S out OF 81
counties give Hepperle a lead OF l,37S
over G%lassner for secretary OF state.
The same class of eturns on 35 coun-
ties give Policy a lead of over 5000
over CCrson for the supreme bench,
and Gates a lead Of 1921 over Haney.
While it is possible that Haney may
yet retain his place on the bench, the
trend of the figures coming in is not
favorable.
Johnson has a lead of 210 over
Wickhem for governor on the Demo
cratic ticket.
Figures from. SO counties on dele-
gates show in round numbers, 25,o00
for Roosevelt, $4,000 for LaFollette,
1000 for Taft.
The same counties indicate the Sc
lection of a Clark delegation from this
state. The Wilson list is only ten
votes in the lead with CLARK terrific
