very freely about his offense, accord
ing to a half dozen witnesses who took
the stand today for the defense in The
bribery trial of Clarence 5. Darrow
In all of his numerous conversations
he was quite emphatic in all his
aVowals Of Darrow's innocence, ac-
cording to the same witnesses, all OF
whom were called to attack the ver-
acity of Franklin, who, while on the
stand had denied making such asser-
tions.
Mr.. Darrow took a leading part in
conducting his case and on several
occasions he engaged with verbal
clashes with the state forces.
Twice he accused the district at

to having held several conversations
with Franklin in which the latter said
Darrow had never given him the
money with which to bribc Juror
Lockwood.
The witness said he was told by
Franklin that there was being used
money that the attorneys for the Nc
Namara defense knew nothing about.
Franklin was also said to have told
the witness that he had not sent any
messages to Darrow the morning of
his arrest and that if any one called
him on the telephone to ask him to go
to the scene of Franklin's arrest il
was Detective Browne, of the district
attorneys office.

anything as the state had paid his fine,
but they were holding the Lockwood
case over him so that he would tes-

HE told me that Fredericks was
