JURY HOLDS FATE II
OF 0FtABOR[AWYER
Darrow Case Deliberations Go
on After a Heated Argument
in Court. .

LOS ANGELES. March NO word
came from the jury room early today
indicating the fate Of Clarence 8. Dar-
row, whose trial on charges Of brib-
ing Robert Balm. one of the Mcnamara
case jurors, went to the jury at 9:55
last night The Jurors claimed they
were too tired to deliberate last night.
caused Judge Conley to adjourn court
until 10 o'clock this morning.
The closing argument of Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Ford. which began imme-
diately after Darrow himself had closed
for the defense, intimated that there
was something wrong in the first trial
of Darrow on charge Of bribery, which
had resulted In his acquittal. These In
timations Of crookedness aroused the
anger of Darrow's attorneys and also
several members of the first Darrow
Jury, who were In court, and who pro-
tested Indignantly to Judge ,Conley
against allowing the prosecutor to say
such things.
Ford also denounced John Harring-
ton, one of the states own witnesses,
for having betrayed Darrow, and he
expressed the opinion that Bert H.
Franklin, star witness for the State,
had not told everything he knew"
The closing argument of Darrow was
equally as eloquent as his plea In the
first bribery trial, and when he closed
yesterday nearly all Of the jurors and
spectators in the court room were In
tears.

TARIFF REVISION IS
CONGRESS PROBLEM
Special Session, Called by New
President, Will Consider
Only Customs Changes. d.

If it has not been determined by Pres
ident Wilson that he shall ask Congress
to consider only the tariff and the
passage of bills vetoed by his prede-
cessor in office, during the approaching
special session, 1t is at least certain
that these are the only subjects now
settled lupon. II currency legislation Is
attempted 1t will follow on a decision
to be made later, and not on a decision
now reached.
Chairman John ]. Fitzgerald of the
House Appropriations Committee called
on President Wilson today. On leav-
ing he said that the program had not
been outlined. and that certainly only
the revision Of the tariff would be un-
dertaken at the beginning.
The manner OF introducing the Demo-
cratic tariff revision measure has not
been settled upon.
Chairman Fitzgerald said there were
two ways of bringing in the measure,
and that he was speculating as to the
advisability of introducing the tariff
bill simply as a separate bill. Other
wise the Appropriations Committee
will be called together and formulate
the measure. either sending it in as q
whole or in schedules

EVERGLADES ROW
n F|NALLfCLOSED
Elliott Reinstated as Chief of
Bureau of Drainage as. VIII
son Retires. --@

With the passing Of the old Admins
tration the last chapter in the Ever
glades controversy was written when
secretary of Agriculture Wilson, just
as he left office. reinstated as chief of
the Bureau of Drainage Investigation
Charles G. Elliott. who had been dis
Sime.
The department had previously rein
stated A. d. Morehouse. assistant chief.
and ]. W. Singleton, accountant, who
were suspended while the Everglades
controversy ragged.
The belated reinstatement of Elliott
constituted his third vindication by
various branches of the Government
The indictments against Morehouse and
Elliott were dismissed by the courts
months ago; a House committee exon
Grated them of any wrongdoing In the
handling of drainage contracts and
their reinstatement by a passing Ad-
ministration mas finally closed the
Everglades row.
When the House investigation of the
Everglades charges was begun the
three officials named above were sud-
denly deposed by the Secretary, acting
on the recommendations of the So
licitor.
It later developed that their case was
but remotely related to the Everglades
charges. brought by Congressman
Frank Clark of Florida, who mad
charged officials higher up with lending
aid to land fraud schemes in Florida.
Incidentally, the House committee got
into an investigation OF the drainage
and irrigation bureaus, and of the
charges that there had been a swap
ping Of accounts in these bureaus.
Elliott and Morehouse were charged
with the technical offense Of borrow
ing funds'' to tide over the drainage
bureau from one fiscal year to another.
II was shown that the irrigation ap-
propriations had been exhausted.
Elliott and Morehouse claimed that
this was done with the knowledge of
DIR. A. c. True, director of the expert
ment station and that their actions
were not criminal and were for the
good of the service.

Many correspondents testified that
dogs were il the habit of making
presents to one another as we'll as
to people. Doctor Boucher, French
surgeon on service in Africa, said:
II had dog OF the Moorish breed
known as tho 'sloughi,'. and a fine
Arab mare. These two animals de.
veloped a remarkable affection for
one another. The horse, with her
large bulk, furnished the dog with
warm place and shelter against
the wind and weather. In return
he used to bring the horse pieces of
sugar, vegetables and other delica,

a dog would fail to recognize his
owner when 1t was dangerous for
the latter to be identified. Here is
the conclusion of her story:

he had seen his dog Medor commit

"Medor had been cyuelly wounded
