POLICE BODY-GUARD
On Wedding Eve Precautions
Are Taken and None Are
Allowed Near Home.
REPORTERS TO BE BARRED
Letters Said to Have Conveyed
Threats to Heiress Moving
Picture Men to Take Films
of Elaborate Ceremonj-.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 15. (Special.)
While there Is no corroboration of
the report that Miss Jennie Crocker,
the millionaire heiress who is to be
married tomorrow, has received threat
ening letters. It Is a fact that she is at
tended by a body-guard of detectives
and that elaborate precautions have
been taken to protect guests.
The grounds of Uplands. Miss Crock
er's country place at Hlllsboro, are
guarded and not even tradesmen are
allowed to approach the house. Every
one Is halted at the gates and unless a
pass Is forthcoming no one secures en
trance. Miss Crocker refuses to talk about
these precautions, but the gossip of
the millionaire colony of Hlllsboro is
that she has received several threat
ening letters from cranks and is not
taking any chances.
Her father. Colonel Fred Crocker, had
much antagonism because of his "pub-lic-be-damned'"
attitude and his great
wealth, derived from the Southern
Pacific Company.
Miss Crocker has Issued only 300
Invitations for her wedding and strict
orders have been given to permit no
one to enter the grounds without an
invitation. It is even said that no re
porters will be admitted. This is in
striking contrast to the fact that a
moving picture company has been al
lowed to take views of the wedding at
the church and of the reception and
dinner dance on the grounds which will
follow. Whether these views will be
exhibited, like Paul Kalney's hunting
pictures, remains to be seen.
Besides the exquisite color scheme of
pink lavender orchids in the church
decorations that will be recorded by
the machine, the other details shown
will be the wonderful wedding gown
of the bride, which her aunt, Mrs.
Charles F. Alexander, brought with her
from Paris last week, and which is
said to be as costly and beautiful as
the one worn by Vivien Gould when
she became the bride of Lord Decles.
She will be given away by her brother,
Templeton Crocker, and her bridal at
tendants will be Mrs. Walter Martin,
who will be matron of honor, and Har
riet and Janetta Alexander, of New
Tork: Julia Langhorne and Marjorle
Josselyn, who will act as bridesmaids.
Harold Fitsgerald. of New York, will
be best man for Malcolm Whitman.

changes It is announced that no fur
ther work will be done In the way of

CALIFORNIA HEIRESS, WHO IS
ON EVE OF
MISS JENNIE
BOAST IS ALLEGED
Franklin Talked of Offenses,
Say Witnesses.
DETAILS ARE GIVEN OUT
One Impeachment Witness for De
fense In Darrow Trial Relates
How He Was Told Some
One Else Would Suffer.
LOS ANGELES. July 15. Bert H.
Franklin, confessed bribe giver, talked
very freely about his offenses, ac
cording to a half-dozen witnesses who
took the stand for the defense in
the bribery trial of Clarence S. Darrow
today.
In all his numerous quotations he
was emphatic In his avowals of D ar
row's innocence, according to the same
witnesses, all of whom were called to
attack the veracity of Franklin, who,
while on the stand, had denied mak
ing such an assertion.
Mr. Darrow took a leading part in
conducting his case and on several
occasions he engaged in verbal clashes
with the state forces. Twice he ac
cused the District Attorney of trying
to win through trickery.
Pirotte Closely Examined.
P. J. Pirotte. a postmaster at the
suburb of Venice, was the most im
portant witness of the day and he
was subjected to a searching cross-
examination by Assistant District At
torney Ford, which had not been con
cluded at adjournment time.
Pirotte testified to having held sev
eral conversations with Franklin in
which the latter had said Darrow nev
er had given him the money with
which to bribe Juror Lockwood.
The witness said he was told by
Franklin that money was being used
that the attorneys for the McNamara
defense knew nothing about. Frank
lin, according to the witness, also said
that he had not sent any message 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. It was De
tective Browne of the District At
torney's office.
Pirotte testified that Franklin naa
told him at another meeting that he
was not worried about the outcome
of the charges against him.
"They don t want me; they are alter
Darrow," he told the witness.
'He said that he had pleaded guilty
to the charge of bribing Juror Bain,"
said Pirotte. "It had not cost him
anything, as the state had paid his
fine, but they were holding the i.oca
wood case over him so that he would
testify against Darrow.
"Franklin told me that r-reaencas
was under great political obligations to
him." said the witness, "because once
when political enemies were trying to
get some documents connected with
some trouble Fredericks was in some
years ago. Franklin, who was in the
United States Marshal's office, had se
creted them."
Adam Dixon Warner, a former at
torney and lecturer, testified that
Franklin had said to him In the prog
ress of the McNamara case: "I am go
ing to win this lawsuit myself, mere
is an angle to this that Darrow nor
anyone else knows anything about."
He was not cross-examined.
Alleged Boast Related.
Josenh Muserove. another impeach
ment witness, said Franklin had told
him: "I will get out of this all right.
I am playing the cards and before
I go to the penitentiary I will put it
on someone else."
Other witnesses who testified today,
were Tom L. Johnson, an attorney
who acted as intermediary between
Franklin and the District Attorney's
office, and Carl F. White, a news
paperman, both of whom testified that
Franklin in conversations with them
had absolved the defendant of any
complicity In the alleged Jury brib

EMERGENCY CLAUSE GOES
Salem Passes Act Granting Southern
Pacific-AVelch Franchise.
SALEM. Or., July 15. (Special.)
With Councilman Jones casting the
only dissenting vote, the franchise for
the Welch lines here, now owned by
the Southern Pacific, went through
with an emergency clause attached.
A fight was put on on the emergency
clause by outsiders. R. A. Harris, state
printing expert, being one oi tne lead
ers. It is now the plan of Harris and
his associates to call a mass meeting
at the earliest possible moment and
aeitate the question o fcirculating re
ran netitlons asainst all of the mem
bers of the City Council who voted for
the bill.
It is possible that Mayor Lachmund
will veto the franchise for other rea
sons, but just what the Mayor's atti
tude in that regard will be is not
known definitely. Harris is convinced
that the members of the Council who
voted for the franchise should be made
the sublect of recall petitions. He de
clares fiat he is not opposed to the
franchise and is not arguing on the
merits of that document, but his entire
fiarht Is on the emergency clause. He
says no emergency exists and that
when the Couacilmen voted that an
emergency did exist, they cast their
votes for a move to deprice the people
of their referendum privilege and con
seauently. he assumes the stand that
they should not continue to hold their
public office.
