Around Attorney Darrow, too, gath- ered a crowd. From him the question- ers wanted to know how it all had happened, and why. Darrow's face was pale.

Detective's Plea for McManigal. “There’s just ome thing I want to ask you,” said McLaren to Frelericks, “and that is you do all you van for McManigal.” Fredericks held up his right hand as he answered: “I promise you Tl do all in my power for him. He may have to take a light sentence, but I'll do the best I can.” McManigal Deeply Affected. ° Later in McManigal's cell, after he had gone into the story of the Llew ellyn iron works explosion last Christ- mas, McLaren. told him privately of what Fredericks had promised. McManigal was greatly affected when he learned that the state had become his friend. His eves filled with tears and he choked so that he could hardl stammer his thanke. Chuckled Over Pleas of Guilty.
