at Trial.
WAS KEPT FROM T6sTlFYING
Bribery Charge Against Labor Attor'
ney Almost Lost Sight OF IN
Effort to Show Up ~
Fraud.

Los Angeles. June 1.-THE jury
bribery charge on which Clarence 5.
Darrow is being tried was almost
completely lost sight Of In the enort
OF the prosecution to show that MIS-
David Captain was one OF the McNa-
mara witnesses whom barrow mad
conspired corruptly to prevent; from
testifying, through Anton Johannsen
and Olaf A. Tveitmoe, labor leaders
OF San Francisco. tss-.
There was a marked difference IN
the viewpoints OF the opposing sides
al to the alleged spiriting away from
San Francisco Of the wife and chill
dren of one OF the men indicted WIN
the McNamaras on the charge tOt
blowing up the Times building.
Difference In Viewpoint y
AS seen by the prosecution MFs-
Caplan was a material witness for the
prosecution in the Mcnamara case
who had been surreptitiously taken
first to an isolated mountain retreat
some distance from San francisco
and later by automobile to Reno
New. accompanied by Johannsen.
AS pictured by the defense 1t was
a woman toiling in midsummer In a
San Francisco sweatshop to support
her two little children, harassed by
private detectives until she had APP
pealed twice to the chief. of police for
protection, finally bounded out OF
her position" and then taken. In
charge by friends.
Could Not be Used.
The strongest points made BY the
defense. however, in this connection
was that Mrs. Caplan, as the wife OF
co-defendant, could not have been
a witness in the Mcnamara case;
that II she could have been viewed as
a competent witness her services
were never required, and that the
time of the occurrence was two
months prior to the beginning Of the
trial Of James B. Mcnamara.
The defense made strong objections4
to the admission of the testimony OF
Malcolm Loughead, the chauffeur
