Jones, President Taft has been convinced that Prosecutor Francis J. Heney and Detective W iil tam J. Bums stacked the Jury box when Jones, Franklin Pierce Mays and othtrs were convicted of land fraud. Evidence that the Jury was hand picked" has been carefully garn ered bv detectives and lawyers engag ed by Jones, and this resulted In an invMtliration bv the Department of Justice. Every effort was made by Jones to have Taft grant the pardon before the President term expired for tn the event of Roosevelt being elected Jones realUed that 1 case would be hopeless. Since his conviction Jone has bat tled hard to secure a pardon, and pe titions and requests have been laid before Taft repeatedly. Jones friends offered to demonstrate to the Presi dent that Jones had not been given a fair trial, as the Jury was selected with a view to returning a verdict for the Government and everyone who might give Jone and his fellow de fendants a square deal was carefully eliminated. Taft asked for proof, and Jonea has submitted It. So strong was the evidence support ing the contention of Jones that few mnntha ago explanations were de manded of Heney and Burns by the Government and United States Dis- trict Attorney John McCourt was ask- ed for a report on the case from such documents as were still in the office.

Had the President not granted the pardon. Senator Borah, of Idaho, is said to have offered to intro duce a resolution demanding a Con gressional investigation of the meth ods of Heney and Burns in Oregon. The Jonea people did not want such a resolution presented, as it would de lay the pardon for several years. Now that the pardon has been granted, however, and Jones will not be Incon venienced, it is possible that such a resolution will be offered and an in vestigation demanded by people un friendly to Heney.

GOIWSACra IN BRIBE CASE FRANKLIN SAYS DA "ROW RI CEIVED MONEY USED FROM LABOR CHIEF FUND TRACED TO DEPOSIT VAULT Defsn Declar It Ha Won Many Point In Examination Wit ness Dot Wsll Under Cross Fir LOS ANGELES, Cal., June 4. Sam uel Gorapera, head of the American Federation of Labor, sent the money direct to Clarence S. Darrow, which Franklin has testified was to be used in the bribery of George N. Lockwood according to Bert Franklin, under cross-examination today in the trial of Darrow for alleged Jury bribery In connection with the McNamara caaV. Franklin said Mr. Darrow ltid given him this information. Franklin testified at the same time that Darrow had told him he need not worry about Job Harrtnian being lm- i plicated in the case. Harriman, Dar row told toe witness, coum account for his visit to the safe deposit vault the morning he secured the $4000 by the fact that he took out $300 to pay a mortgage, said Franklin. The conversation in which Comp ere' name was mentioned followed a newspaper account purporting to show that the $4000 used In the Lock wood case had been marked money. "I asked Mr. Darrow." said Frank lin. 'If he had seen In the papers that the District Attorney had traced the money from the safe deposit vault In to the hands of Mr. Darrow and from there Into my hands: also that It was marked money. I asked Mr. Darrow If there was any way for the money to be traced. He anid that the money was sent direct to hire by Samuel Gompers." Franklin also testified to another conversation with the defendant in the course of which he said Darrow had asked him for a description of the calls and accomodations at the San Quentln and Folsom prisons. I told him the best I could." con tinued the witness. "I was thinking seriously about that myself." Questioned as to conversations, fol lowing his arrest with Attorney L- compte Davis, Franklin claimed the privilege of declining to answer on the ground that Davis was bis attorney. He declared that he did not intend to draw Davis into the case. Chief Coun sel Rogers, for the defense, claimed that Franklin waived all privileges when he took the stand for the prose cution. Judge Hutton ruled that Franklin was not privileged to withhold any conversations with his attorney. The prosecution offered further objections to the questions asked the witness, which were overruled. - Franklin told of private conversa tions with Davis concerning the iat ter's efforts to procure his release up on payment of a fine. 'Did you ever tell Mr. Davis that Mr. Lockwood had solicited a bribe of you and that you wanted to catch him?" asked Rogers. "Yes, 1 ffiink It was in the office df Mr. Gage," was the reply. "I told Mr. Davis that Lockwood came to my of fice and solicited a bribe." Questioned further. Franklin said he had made this statement to Davis after the latter bad arranged for bis plea of guilty. Continuing the cross-examination Rogers drew from the witness the statement that Davis had told him to say that the money used in bribing Lockwood had been sent to htm from Chicago. Franklin denied that he bad ever told a group oT newspaper men at his preliminary examination hat Darrow had nothing to do with the alleged Jury bribery. He also denied making subsequent statements to newspaper avowing Darrow' Inno cense. A number of such statements were read by Rogers, ind each denied by Franklin. Although the defense has professed itself well pleased with a number of points brought out by Its examina tion of one of the state's chief wit nesses, the essential story told on di rect examination by Frankln has not been materially changed ss a result of attack by the defense.
