Prosecutors Hand Stayed When 9th

Court Rebukes Both Sides-Also
Rules Against Defense. y.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 27.-In the
course of an argument In the barrow
case here Tuesday in which Horace
Appel Of Darrow's counsel was en-
gaging in personalities, District At
torney Fredericks suddenly lost his
temper and, with . face black with
anger, tried to throw an inkwell at Ap-
pei. ri *
Assistant District Attorney Ford.
Earl Rogers, the bailiff Of the court,
had surrounded Fredericks by the
time he had seized the missile and
prevented him from throwing.
The court rebuked both Appel and
Fredericks but coupled with the re-
Duke statement that knowing both
Of them were working under severe
strain, he would not take more dras-
tic action. Just before adjournment
Of court Fredericks made formal
apology to the court for his conduct.
The court had ruled against the de-
tense, after an argument which had
lasted nearly n'' day, in its demand
that the prosecution turn over to 1t
the typewriter copy of the stenogra-
piers report Of the dictagraph con-
versation between barrow and John r.
Harrington. Earl Rogers had returned
to the cross-examination Of Harring-
ton and managed to get from him
certain statements as to what he had
said to Darrow and barrow had said
to him in these conversations. Upon
that basis Rogers had again demand
ed the dictagraph document, and had
declared that the prosecution was sup
pressing evidence.
1T will come Out" said Fredericks.
Appel jumped to his feet and shak-
ing his finger 1T Frederlcks said:
yes, 1t will come out; you're coming
out: you're altogether too prominent
in this case Your honor, Just look
at the way they interpret the law.
Like chewing gum .y5 ~ 4
I've stood all Of thiG I'm going to
stand" said. Fredericks, jumping to his
feet and starting around the long
counsel table in Appel's direction.
Rogers and the bailin blocked
Fredericks' way and urged him back
to his seat, but Appel was still trying
to talk and Fredericks was still try
ing to reach him.
"I've stood all this fellows zap I'm
going to stand" shouted Fredertcks.
and seized the inkwell in front Of him
but was prevented from throwing 1t.
The second demand Of the defense
for the dictagraph document was de-
uied by the court.

Baltimore, Md, June 27.-The DEM
ocratic convention held short SEES
sion Wednesday afternoon which was
devoted to oratory and the resultant
outbursts of enthusiasm awakened by
the speakers. The convention ad-
1ourned until evening without trans
acting any business. The delay was
caused by the fight over the Illinois
contests before the committee on ere

The happenings of the convention
itself were completely overshadowed
by the important work in the commit
tees. on the motion Of William Jen-
nings Bryan the committee on resolu-
tions decided not to present plat
form until after the convention names

decided innovation. The platform will

LA BELLE AND PHILLIPS
DIRECTORS WILL MEET.
Report Of Committees to be Heard
at Meeting in Pittsburgh
To-day.


There will be a meeting Of the rep
resentatives OF the La Belle lrol
Works and the Phillips Sheet ana Tn
Plate Company at the Fort Pitt H0tef
Pittsburgh. to-day. for the purpose Of
passing upon the consolidation OF
these two big concerns. Tho mafss1
has been under consideration by oom@
mittees Of both companies for several
weeks past. during which time they
have been working on the compaxa<
tive values. These have been 0rn4
bodied into a general report. which
will be submitted to the directors of
the two concerns to-day. Il is ex4
pected that all OF La Belle electors
will attend.
Some three years ago. La Belle Iron
Works appointed a COMMITTEES 70 louk

In the latter concern for the past III
teen years.
Mutually Advantageous.
The details OF the agreement be-
tween the two concerns have not been
made public, and II Is not likely that
they will be for some time TO come.
While II Is not certain that the con-
solidation will be made. those inter
ested are inclined TO believe that ie
will be carried through. owing to the
fact that IL would be obviously advan-
tageous to both concerns. As stated.
La Belle has been contemplating the
building OF a sheet and tin plant for
some time past. but this Will not be
necessary N the combination OF the
two concerns Is formed.
On the other hand. the Phillips
Sheet and Tin Plate company would
have the advantage or La Bellies plant
for steel making and rough finishing
to bars. and with the saving OF freight
rates, La Belle being centrally locat-
ed to all OF the mills OF the Phillips
company. and the natural mutual saw
