Attorney Rogers asked Browns If Darrow did not know that Browne was the man who had uncovered the evidence which Tesulted In the Indict ment of Bryce. Caplln and Schmidt for the blowing up of the Times building, and that he was the chief In the Mo Nimira Investigation. Browne said Darrow knew.- Browne also testified that he had heard Darrow say nothing to Franklin when Browne arrested Franklin.

The witness testlfled thst he and Lock wood had agreed that the latter light a match if Franklin passed the money to him. ASHES THIRTYFEET DEEP Continued From rimt rs.) habitable because of ths tine silt which drifted through eterjr crevice, making useless ths stores of food and cloth ing. Tha wharf at Kadlak, at which the Manning haa been lying, was kept rea sonably clear of ash by constant play Jng of tha cutter's fire hose. Only a amall place was cleared and tha roads are virtually Impassable. rl Problem Serlos. The problem of feeding the destitute people la a aerioua one. E (Torts are bslng made to reach the Government expsrlmental farm near Kadlak, which was stocked with a large herd of Im ported cattle and sheep, which, if found In fit condition, will be used for food. " The only water the people at Kadlak are nslng Is that distilled from sea water by the Manning, all other sup plies being useless because of pollu tion. At the fishing stations of Karluk Chlgnlk and, Nakaek, no loss of life oc curred but great damage was done by the fall of ashes. Preparations were mafle at the Ashing stations to take all on board the cannery tenders and seek safety at sea, but the people have decided to stay near their properties as long aa conditions are endurable. I riahiasr rw Mar e Fallaiiw. It la feared .that-the fishing season at all stations affected by the ash will be a complete failure because of the polluted water, large quantities of pure water being necessary to prepare the salmon for canning. Total darkness covered the entire section about the canneries, which are on the shore of Fheltkof strait, for 40 hours. Their proximity to the volcano caused the people In the cannery towns to reallss that they stood almost at the cannon's mouth ss the thunderous blasts from the volcano shook tbe ground beneath them. The white men had much difficulty restraining the natives who were panic-stricken. No game has been seen on Kadlak Islsnd since the eruption begsn and it Is probable that much animal life was destroyed. Manatee Aldlag AIL The revenue cutter Manning Is still feeding the destitute at Kadlak. Small relief boats sent to Afognak Island, Just north of Kadlak and to Cold Bay, Kaimal and the settlements on the main land have not returned and the conditions there are not known. Most of the white refugees at Kodlak believe the worst la over as far as danger from Katmal volcano is con cerned, but the natives are less con fident and believe an evil spirit has been sent to destroy them. They say the present tortures are but forerun ners of ultimate death which Is to overtake them and the rest of the world. Tbey refuse to leave the Immediate vicinity ot the Manning trying to per suade Captain Perry to take them away from tha Island.
