Wolfe, who is a writer for a So cialist paper, was caHed-to the-witness stand at the conclusion of the exam ination of Job Harrlman, late yester day. Questions he waa asked referred directly to the basis of the testimony of Franklin, who had sworn that Dar row delivered to him .money for Jury bribing on tha morning of November 28, 1911. Wolfe testified that on the morning In question he rode to a down town point with Darrow and accompanied him to their offices, where Datrow remained until he received a telephone call, after which he announced that he had been requested to visit the headquarters of Job Harrlman, then Socialist candidate for mayor of Los Angeles. Franklin, Wolfe testified, did not appear at Dar row's office.

He is at the St. Vincent s hospital. Although the bullet pierced the dlaphraam an.1 the right lung and lodged near the spine, it is said that he has a good chance for recovery. One incident of the shooting which was brought out yesterday was that after Emery had been shot by Pence and while still helpless on the floor, ho scrawled a short note or will on the back Qf Ms photograph. In the will he gave all of his property to Ms wife and charged his stepson, Ferris, 17 years old, to care for her. The will was writ ton when Emery thought h was mor tally wounded. The will follows: "Portland, July 9. I leave all my property to my wife, Viola A. Emery, and charge my son Perrls to take gooj care of his mother from my Insurance left by me. In fear, "HERMAN P.
