LOS ANGELES. May 3K.-The name of
Clarence D Arrow was mentioned by
George N. Lock wood, one of the prosecu
tion's star witnesses, for the first time
today in connection with th trial of the
former chief counsel of the McNamara
brothers for alleged Jury bribing. Lock
wood declared Darrow was walking
toward Bert H. Franklin when the latter
was arrested for bribery a few momenta
after Lockwood had received the first In
atallment of the payment for his prospec
tive vote in the trial of J. B. McNamara.
The day In court was one of excltment ;
from the time of convening until adjourn- j
ment. Clashes between attorneys, the ex-1
change of charges of attempting to in-,
nuence tne jury, an important rut-1
ing lor tne prosecution on tne aa-
mlsstbtllty ot evidence objected to by
the defense, and the reappearance or
Lockwood on the stand for his resump
tion of the story of the alleged trapping
ot Bert Franklin, kept the atmosphere
of the court room at fever heat through
out the three hours' session.
The exciting events of the day also In
cluded a repudiation by District Attorney
Frederick of Detective Robert J. Foster.
and the National Erectors' association,
which employs Foster, ss participants In
the prosecution of the Darrow case. The
repudiation followed the submission by at
torneys for the defense of court affidavits
In support of a petition that Detective
Foster be cited for contempt of court
Story of Alleged Trap.
A morning newspaper printed an Inter
view with Foster today giving what pur
ported to be the facta concerning the
alleged trapping of Darrow In a hotel
room by means of a telephonic device.
Foster was quoted ss ssylng the instru
ment would bring about Darrow's con
viction. The defense contended the inter
view was printed with a view of In
fluencing the Jury and the prosecution
Joined in the request for Foster's citation
tomorrow.
The ruling by Judge Hulton on the Is
sue raised by the defense Saturday was
declared by attorneys for th prosecution
a sweeping victory for them a It will
enable them to Introduce all of the evi
dence in their possession tending to prove
that Darrow had been guilty of attempt
ing to bribe other Juror.
Lockwood smiled when relating Inc'
dents which occurred while he was act
ing under the Instructions of the district
attorney In the decoying of Franklin,
who. he said, had negotiated with him for
hi vote a a McNamara Juror.
An objection was raised by the de
fense to nearly (very question put to
Lockwood by th -district attorney and
but few were sustained.
Continuing from the point at which his
story was Interrupted Saturday, th old
soldier as Id that at his first visit to
Franklin' office. Franklin had told him
to be careful how hi wife apent th
money if th deal went through.
1 told him," said Lockwood. "that my
wife would be the last person I woulJ
want to know about It."
Franklin, he said, visited his home
gain and this time Lockwood ald he
told him that he would have nothing
to do with the transaction. Franklin pro
teased regret sad told him if he changed
hi mind th proposition was still
open." - ''
Tells District Attorney.
The witness testified that he went to
the district attorney's cfflce the next day
end told him what had happened. On
thla day Franklin made another vls't
to Lockwood' farm. Franklin told him
that hi name had been drawn as a
Juror in the McNamara trial, and sail
to him, the witness testified: "George
there Is St.M In It for you and I want
you to have It."
Fearing to accept the proposition,
though, with reluctance Lockwood sell
that he expressed fear that the money
would not be paid him nd Franklin, h
said, declared: "Well. I'll talk the mat
ter over with Clarence Darrow and ha ll
fix It."
Franklin then agreed to come the next
day and talk It over, lockwood said
that at that tint he had no location
of letting himself be bribed.
"Stata whether yon war acting with
the knowledge and advice of the district
attorney T" directed Captain Fredericks.
"I was," said th witness.
Lockwood then told of another confer
ence with the district attorney and .f a
visit to hla house by Captain Fredericks,
Detective 8. L. Browne of the district
attorney's office and several others con
nected with the- prosecutor's staff.
"Big One- Bronaht Ont.
All of them concealed themselves ibout
the premise after Lockwood had called
up Franklin and told him to come out.
Franklin, he said, had asked If h should
bring out the 'big one' and he told him to
do so.
Chief Counsel Roger for the defense
objected to thla form of evidence. kV
nating It as "fourth degree hearsay." and
on the further ground that LocKwjo-l
was shown Xn be not a conspirator, but
an agent of the district attorney. The
objection were overruled. .
Three of the men concealed theiueivei
fn the barn, on on top of a tank tower
and one on top of a house, said th alt
ness. When Franklin came. Lockvood
asked him where Darrow was He re
plied, raid the witness, "Did you '.Ink
that Darrow would come out here?"
"I told him," said Lockwood. "that I
thought he referred to Dims when h
I mentioned th 'big one." He said that he
J had meant Captain White, whom he had
I selected a custodian for th money. '
The witness said he made further ob
jection to White aa "stake holder." but
Franklin Insisted and finally It "wa
agreed that Lockwood should meet While
the next morning at the corner of Third
and Loa Angel streets, where the first
payment of KM would be made. Lock
wood then told of the meeting with White
the next day at the designated place,
when be was given a fM bill by White
and shown 8.S0 more. He said he saw
Frankltn aeros the street at the tine
and that when Franklin approached, be
said he told the McNamara detective that
he feared there was something wrong.
He believed, he said, that someone had
overheard their conversation at hi home
the previous night. Franklin looked back
and ottered an aath. tliea cautioned him
not to look around.
" 'Lets get out of here Franklin told
me," said th witness, "and he and land
White walked toward Main street. Near
the corner a man was coming toward
Franklin., but Brown of the district at-
urn innH&A iKj ii mmm
torney office stepped between them and
waived them back. Then he arrested
Franklin."
"Who was the other man?" asked the
district attorney. "1 have learned since,"
said the wttneaa, "thai It was Clarence
Darrow."
"What did Darrow do?'1
"Really, 1 loat sight of him. I did not
sea him again." said Lockwood.
The witness then told of being taken
with Franklin and White to the district
attorney' offices, where the It. 000 was
turned over to Captain Fredericks.
Hla direct examination was. not ton
