STRONG WORDS
Denounces Actions of Prim-
airy Election Officers as
Fraud of the Worst Kind
REBSTOCK TRIAL LIVELY
Long Argument Of Counsel
as to Admissibility Of
Evidence to Show Intent

The trial of Joseph Rebstock, indict-
ed for violation of the election law by
an officer of a primary election pre-
cinct, was resumed before a jury in
Judge Lawlors court yesterday. The
plea of the defense that Rebstock can
not be further prosecuted, as he had
been compelled to testify before the
Grand Jury was admitted on the gem
eral plea of not guilty. but District At
torney Byington says he will be able
to overcome that plea by evidence that
Rebstock, although summoned to testi-
fy, did not in fact do so. Members of
the Grand Jury willy be called before
the close of the trial to give their tes-
timony on that point.
A strong fight was made by the de-
Tense to prevent witnesses from testi-
flying that Rebstock had refused to adj
minister the oath to other voters be-
sides Owen W. Franklin at the Aims
house booth, with the object of show
ing the condition of the defendants
mind A long argument ensued, DUR
ing which the jury was excused, and
although the Judge reserved his deci-
sion till this morning. he clearly indi-
Gated that he would rule against the
defense.
During the argument Byington said:
-
by this defendant secured ia votes in
that precinct and the opposing faction
only two votes clearly shows that there
was fraud of the worst kind Every
act of the defendant that day should
go before the jury to show the charac-
ter of the man. He used filthy Ian
guage to citizens who came to vote
and all the circumstances stamp the
doings of the defendant as fraudulent

election ever perpetrated in this city,"
The witnesses Examined yesterday
were George P. Adams. registrar, who
identified certain affidavits and other
documents, and William H. Hazel
Much time was saved by stipulation
that the primary election was held.
Hazel testified to having challenged
F'rankum's vote and Rebstock's refus-
al to administer the oath to Franklin.
Hazel wanted to ask the voters: rs it
your intention to support the Repub-
lican ticket, headed by Roosevelt and
Fairbanks?" but he was laughed and
jeered at and the only question put to
the voters was, Are you Republi-
CAM" Rebstock had told linn he did
not care If he was sent to the States
prison, but he would not administer
the oath to- Franklin. Rebstock had
used filthy exDresSions in speaking of
voters and assumed a beligerent attf-
tude all through the day. 1t was a
question asked by Byington as to Reb-
stocks refusal to administer the oath
to other voters that precipitated the ar
gument which occupied nearly two
hours. Hazel will be put on the stand
this morning. when the same question
will be asked and the Judge will give
his decision on the objection raised by
the defense.

into the place and disarmed and ar
rested the man behind the pistol.
When he was arraigned before Judge
Fritz on the charge of carrying con-
cealed wear ons Mr.. Brady claimed
exemption from the penalty provided
by law for that offense, inasmuch as
the ordinance excludes travellers from
its exactions and he was a tourist from
Chicago. While en- route from Los An
geles to Seattle, he averred, his at
tention was attracted by preliminary
announcement of the butchers picnic,
which was held last Wednesday at
Shell Mound Park, and hisYocation be-
ing that of swine slaughterer he de-
cided to embrace the opportunity af-
forded him to fraternize with so many
merrymaking representatives of San
Francisco's meat industry. So to Shell
Mound he went and there he formed
so many acquaintanceS and consumed
so many drinks that when he recrossed
the bay his senses were hazy. How he
arrived in the wet goods shop he "shot
up" he could not for the life of him
remember, and what inspired him to
perform the shooting up he was at "a
loss to understand, as he had never
done such a thing before and certainly
had no desire to do it again.
The Judge pronounced the plea of
exemption well taken, but fined Mr..
Brady So for disturbing the peace, and
the fine was paid from a bundle of
currency of sufficient bulk, as Bailiff
Conlon remarked, ito choke a cow"

laws of Court de France. it was ex-
planned to Judge Mogan, provide that
when any members unpaid fines exceed

that the Police Court could not inter-

George D. Collins yesterday demanded
OF District Attorney Byington and the
acting foreman Of the Grand Jury, E. ].
Bowes, that police surveillance be with
drawn from the house on Sacramento
street, where he has domiciled his wife
and nother-in-law. Ever since the indict-
ment Of Collins, Detective Tom Gibson,
who has been assigned to assist the
Grand Jury in the case. has had patrol
men IN plain clothes constantly on watch
at the residence.
Yesterday Jacob Meyer, Collins lieu
tenant, demanded OF Byington that the
watch be removed. He appeared before
Judge Lawlor to know If It was-by the
direction OF the court that the police were
watching the residence. When informed
that Il was not, he again protested TO By
ington and Bowes. They refused to ac-
cede TO the request and Meyer departed
TO report TO Collins.
Gibson was instructed by Byington and
Bowes to continue the surveillance and he
Immediately left the Hall of Justice to
see that vigilance was redoubled- An ap-
peal by Collins later in the day to Chief

attorney that Gibson had charge of the
