AT CRYPT
OGRAMS
Says , Jrick of Calhoun
fense and Not a Smart
Trick - Either.
De
Modesto. Cal.. Keb. 25. "It is merely
noilier Job put up by the defonse to
be sprung at tbeir leisure, for the pur
pose of embarrassing the prosecution.
Heaven only knows what their next
coup will be."
This was the comment of former Dis
trict Attorney Lngdon today when
axked for a statement regarding the
cryptogram bearing on the graft
prosecution, which have atlrrcd up a
new sensation In San Francisco.
"They were submitted to me about
the time of Heney"s candidacy." snlil
ltnglon. "presumably with the Idea
that I would aslt that they be with
held from publication until we oouij
investigate them.
"I did nothing of the kind, however,
and. 1 told the reporter who presented
the matter to me that we were alo
lutcly Indifferent aa to what was done
resuectinK its publication.
"I told him that I knew nothing
whatever about if and I referred him
to lHtectlve Burns. He did submit
the story to Burne and I know that
Bums looked the matter up.
"In fact Burn ald as soon as he
saw the cryptograms that they were
the work of the defense and that tney
were arranged for the purpose of ex
ploding the matter later,
.."I remember that Burns pointed out
at the time that H was such a trick
aa some of the detectives and others
employed by the defense would try to
spring.
. "That the prosecution could have had
notning to-do with it is apparent from
the fact that all the .members-of the
prosecution were n San Francisco and
in almost dally communication ' wltb
each other. There could have been no rea
son why they should communicate with
each other through a newspaper. That
phase of the story, of course. Is ab
surd, but It Is no more so' than the
frequent charges made that the prose
cutlon dynamited -' Gallagher's house,
killed Chief of Police Blggy, and other
ridiculous and absurd charges. .
"I think it. is apparent that Burns'
diagnosis of the matter is correct"
