Beasly Is Fined for
Threatening Ruef.

DIR. Shadwick o. Beasly, an instructor
IN the Cooper Medical College and a
veteran of the Spanish war, whose in
dignation against Ruef during the i'm
paneling of the Grand Jury before
Judge Graham on Friday led him to
denounce the curly boss and shake his
fist in his face was found guilty by
Police Judge Shortau yesterday OF dis
turbing the paece and fined IS. The
defendant himself took the stand and
admitted it was his enthusiasm for law
and order that led him to denounce
Ruef and shake his fist in the face of
the arch CRATER in a threatening laan-
ner. Judge lShortall said that, accord
ing to the testimony. there was but
one thing to do, and that was to find
the defendant guilty. A nominal fine
of s5 was imposed.
The troubles of the enthusiastic med
ical man did not cease after he had paid
his fine. He went to the property
clerks office to secure the return of the
property which was taken from him at
the time of his arrest. The police be-
came apprised of the fact that DR..
Beasly had permit to carry Il re-
volver. While he was getting his prop
erty a clerk from the Board of Police
Commissioners asked him to wait a
minute, as he desired to serve a sub
pena upon him directing him to appe ar
before the board next Thursday night
to show cause why his permit TO carry
firearms should not be revoked. DIR.
BeasIy said he would not wait, and that
he furthermore would not appear be-
fore the board.
while I was granted a permit, I
have not yet received it," said DR..
Beasly, "and 1 have not carried a re-

lives have played the sycophant in or
der to taste the crumbs which fall from
the political table-have told him with
blanched faces that the danger is grow
ing. That Ruef himself shares this fear
was eyinced yesterday when he made
arrangements for a bodyguard. He
does not feel secure in any company.
Deep down he feels that his career as
head of a bandit crew is near its end.
His overwhelming fear is of indfct-
ment.
Why" said he, they might get
some man in a foreign country or some
one thousands of miles away to make
an afidavit accusing me of some out
rageous crime. Heney could go before
the Grand Jury and make one of those
fire eating talks and force an indict-
ment. won't lay myself open to such
an attack"
Then Ruef turned his wrath upon
Heney. He bitterly assailed the man
who has stepped in to check official
piracy. In his desperation he is pre-
pared to use any means to ward off
the impending DOOM
Those men are actuated only by
malice he repeated.
It was the old song. but anything IN
the way of self-given cheer sounds
good these days to the ears of the
Ruehings.

STRANGE JUNK IN
SLU|CE BOXES.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

O---~@'
SEATTLE. Oct. 22.-The Bonanza
Dredging Company of Dawson has just
had the most marvellous cleanup ever
heard of in mining history. A stranger
or more varied assortment of junk and
odds and ends than was taken from the
long sluice boxes it would be hard to
imagine. Dawsonites are still wonder
ing where the stuff all came from, and
how it managed to get in the bed of
the slough where the machine had
been dredging.
Several of the articles caught in the
rifles were not known to have ever
had an existence in the Yukon, unless
they were part Of the outfits of pre-
historic miners. Probably the oldest
of the strange lot were two bronze
ikons which Russian explorers must
have carried in many years before the
Klondike was heard of. There were
also recovered 100 pounds of unexplod-
ed cartridges, gallons of bullets, many
of which had a coating of amalgam
which necessitated their treatment for
the adhering gold.

Wheeler Opposed
to Violence.

OAKLAND, Oct. 27-President Ben
jamin, Ide Wheeler of the University
of California tonight declared that the
statement credited to him in an even
ing paper regarding the present polit-
ical situation in San Francisco has
never been made by MIN.
President Wheeler said that, instead
of resorting to violence in an attempt
to better conditions, the citizens should
above all else avoid precipitate action
and employ only lawful means in deal
ing with present conditions. The presi-
dent of the University OF California
tonight dictated the following state
ment for publication:
The situation in San Francisco is
undoubtedly calculated to give every
true citizen cause for serious appre-
hension, but have never recommended
illegal procedure in dealing with it"

More Beer-LeSS
Strong Drink
Temperance Workers See Signs of Pro-
rress in Increased Sales Of Beer.


Active temperance workers say the
greatly increased consumption OF beer
an this country is a good sign OF prog
ress toward real temperance. II SHOWS
that beer. a healthful beverage, IS fast
taking the place of strong alcoholic
drinks.
Superintendent Williamson of the
Anti-SalOon League, one OF the pest
known temperance workers, says the
great increase in the consumption OF
beer does not show any Iallng on n
temperance sentiment indeed II -
proof Of more real temperance SSHtt-
fnent than ever before existed IN TINS
country. interviewed by Cleveland
newspaper. Supt Williamson said:
1t is doubtless true that there nave
been 100000 600 more gallons OF peer
consumed during the past year tnan
ever before There is STEADY ue-
crease in the cons umption OF splrltuouS
LIQUORS, such as brandy, whisky ana
wine. and a tendency to drink more
malt liquors. such as beer. Ine oe-
crease is doubtless as marked IL the
one as is the increase in the othef.
Never before has temperance sentiment
had such a strong grip on the peoPsle.
I do not think there is any cause Ior
worry because the beer consumption

view. for statistics prove that when q
community or a state or nation orln rs
more beer IL drinks less liquor This
IS important because beer is bene-
strengthening food drink. The smaIl
rerceDtage of alcohol in beer, only a
little over three per cent in Pabst Blue
Ribbon Beer. aids the digestion and is
stimulating but not intoxicating.
Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is the most
refreshfng temperance drink. It is
brewed from the best ingredients that
money can buy or skill produce
pabst exclusive eight-day malt .choic-
est imported hops, pure water and
hreWe6 in absolute cleanliness. It is
the most wholesome beer because Pabst
exclusive eight-day malt is produced
from the best barley by natural pro
cess Of development instead Of by the
quick cheap process used in many
breweries. and thus retains all the food
value OF the barley In predigested form.
Richest in food strength, best to the
taste. most healthful and always pure
and clean, Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is
also lowest ia perrentage Of alcohol

New Scheme
to Make Law
a Mockery.

The Ruef forces spent an unusually
busy day yesterday. Conferences were
begun at o'clock in the morning, and
continued at intervals until IL o'clock
at night. AS a result of the days
events. Ruef. according to his own
statement. feels as confident as ever OF
final success and 'vindication." Attor-
neys Thomas V. Gator, Samuel NJ
Shortridge and Henry Ach were in at
tendance at the Bush-street Office and
offered words of advice. Ruef himself
pored over law volumes for several
hours to fortify himself for the COM
bat which is to be waged on Monday
before Judge Graham.
Il feel confident that the law will
sustain me-" said Ruef last night "Of
course 1 do not know how Judge
Graham will decide but then, of course,
1t viii all eventually have to go before
the Supreme Court for decision. AS to
the Supreme Court we have no fear
There can be but one decision. The
removal of Langdon was legal in every
way"
Ruef is carrying out his gigantic
bluff as far as it will stretch. Among
lawyers the opinion prevails that the
bluff has about reached the breaking
point. 1t is stated by well-informed
attorneys that before another week has
elapsed the Supreme Court will have
put an end to Ruefs antics with the
District Attorneys Office.
PREPARES FOR CONTINGENCY.
Just what move the city boss would
make in such an eventuality has been
matter Of speculation. While Ruef
refuses to admit of such a contingency,
he has nevertheless prepared for it, In
case Langdon and Heney are upheld in
Office and sustained in their desire to
question the jurors, Ruef will resort
TO hlibustering tactics. He will en-
deavor at every turn to block the
course of the law. He will ask for the
privilege of questioning the jurors and
when the panel has been exhausted he
will claim the right TO interrogate the
veniremen who may be eligible to the
next Grand Jury.
In this way he believes he can ward
of indictment He says he can take
the city directory and begin with the
first letter of the alphabet and go
tains. Ruef believes that he can thus
make a mockery of the law, but his
contentious are laughed at by the men
who have driven him into his cor
ner
Ruef was informed last night that
private messages sent by Heney to his
friends had carried assurance of the
prosecutors power to make good his
promise to convict the grafters.
ITO whom were they sent?" Ruef
asked eagerly, Ito Hitchcock"
He was not enlightened on this
point.
The fact that Ruef Immediately
thought Of Hitchcock, the Secretary of
the Interior, gave rise to the belief
that the Federal Government had taken
a hand in the prosecution. This was
denied by Heney. who stated that in no
way could the Federal Government be
involved in the controversy
