Abe Ruef Though Is Trying to Avoid
Trial BY the Discovery Of Defects
In the Indictments.

San Francisco. Dec. 21.-Superior
Judge Dunno this morning refused
TO allow the ATTORNEYS for Abraham
Ruef TO question witnesses as to the
testimony they gave before the grand
jury. As no record OF the grand jury
proceedings was kept the attorneys for
Ruef resolved to bring the French res
taurant keepers and others into the
proceedings to set aside the indict-
ments and wrest the desired infOrma
tiOn from them on the stand. The at
tempt failed.
In the afternoon Mayor Schmiiz
through attorney Campbell requested
the permission of the court to with
draw his motion TO set aside the in
dictments. offered to waive demurrer
and asked to be allowed TO plead not
guilty. Judge Dunno refused to grant
the request that the mayor be allowed
to plead but said he would take the
matter under adviselnent.
Ruefs attorneys continued their eff
forts to have the indictments against
him set aside. The court adjourned
until next Wednesday when Ruers at

He Casts Doubt Upon Their Paternity and Leaves
His Estate to the Children of His Two Known For
mer Wives

Salt Lake, Dec. 21.-Had the late
ex-senator Arthur Brown foreseen
death at the hands Of Mrs. Bradley he
could have devised no more ingenious
retaliation than the POSE mortem re-
venge contained in his will. The docu-
ment. which was written on August
"a, 1906. four months before he was
shot down. in Washington. was filed
today for probate.
Il do not will anything to any of the
children of Mrs. Anna Bradley" is an
instruction of the will. Il do not think
either child born to Mrs Bradley is
mine, but whether such child or chill
dren are or are not, expressly provide
that none of them shall receive any
thing of my estate.
Il have never married Anna NJ.
Bradley and never intend to. If she
should pretend that any such RELATIONS
ever existed between US to justify such
interference / direct my executor to
contest any claims of any kind she
may present and l direct that she re-
ceive nothing from my estate" The
testator bequeaths all his property
valued at about $4,000. to his two
children by his first and second wife,
Alice Brown and Max Brown. The
children so specified as disinherited are

THE TAMtST FIGHT
SEEN IN LOS ANGELES
Kaufman Won Over Gardner In a
Match Which Proved That Neither
Man Was Fighter.

Los Angeles. Cal. Dec. 21-The
fight between Al Kaufman Of San
Francisco and Geo. Gardner OF Lowell.
Mass. which ended in the fourteenth
round with victory for Kaufman was
the slowest and most amateurish
heavyweight contest that has been seen
in Los Angeles for a long time. Meth
er man showed any class. Kaufman
had Gardner all but out in the second
and again in the eleventh round but
the latter's ability to cover up and hold
on saved him from a knockout. Gard
ner appeared very awkward in the r,ng
and his blows were slow and without
effect when landed. He showed sOme
ability to box and landed numerous
blows on Kaufman in several Of the
rounds but they were not OF sufficient
strength TO stagger his opponent in
the early rounds he seemed to lack
confidence and while he showed some
aggressiveness I'm the later rounds he
was evidently very wary of the San
Francisco man. Kaufman had a strong
punch but fought with very little vigor
and the crowd hooted his efforts
throughout the fight Kaufman was
warned several times during the bout
by Referee Burns for unfair fighting
