violation of the building ordinances.
At the same time they were questioned
as to conditions generally in the Board
of Works and its various departments.
The building graft will be given fur
ther attention as soon as the Belve-
dere case has been finished. Enough
evidence was supplied yesterday to
convince the Grand Jury that it has
invaded a fruitful field. 1t was brought
out through O'Brien that the build
ing laws were disregarded in the
reconstruction of the Belvedere and
that 1t was allowed to run new
ertheless. 1t was further shown
that this condition of affairs was not
due to negligence on the part OF the
City Architect or the Building Inspect
ors, both of whom reported that the
Belvedere did not conform to the or
dinances. The failure to enforce the
ordinance, it is claimed. can be traced
directly to Mayor Schmitz and Ruef
That the case of the Belvedere build
ing was typical of the conditions pre-
vailing will be proved by a great amount
OF evidence to be introduced

Ruef Takes Refuge in
Sealing His Lips

Abe Ruef refuses to answer on the
advice Of counsel. His lips from now
on will be sealed when reference is
made to the Indictments pending
against him.
Il have decided not to discuss the
case further" said Ruef last night. MY
Mr.. Ach and Mr.. Shortridge,
have requested me to stop talking and
am going to respect their wishes"
Ruef feels that the press has been
unduly severe on him and he believes
that no good can come to him from a
discussion of the points at issue.
1t required an effort on the part of
the boss to live up to the course he had
set for himself. Several times during
a conversation with a reporter he was
about to discuss certain features of the
case but would then break off abruptly
with We'll. must not talk about that.
I'll talk about the weather but not
about the case"
1t has been the habit of Ruef to dis
cuss freely with the reporters every
turn of the case. He had evidently been
fully informed as to the Grand Jury
proceedings during the day, for he was
not surprised to hear that Eddie Graney
had placed him in a grave situation.
I've heard about it, Ruef said, but
can't discuss it,

Mayors Name Read
From Calendar
Eugene E. schmitzpr


For the first time in San Francisco.s
history the name of the city's chief
executive was yesterday read by a
Judge of criminal court from a calen-
dar on which that name appeared writ
ten In between those of murderer and
a petty thief, as defendant to a GRIM
inal charge, conviction on which is
punishable by Imprisonment in the
State penitentiary
AS Judge Frank H Dunno of the SUI
perior Court called the Mayors name
the sudden silence that greeted his
words was tense to the point of op-
pressiveness. For several seconds
there was not a movement in the room
and then Attorney Henry Ach suddenly
stepped toward the Judges desk He
was there in behalf of the Mayor. and
also as counsel for Abe Ruef. to ask
that the arraignment of these two men
on the charges of extortion made
against them in the FIVE indictments
returned by the Grand Jury be post
poned until after the return of Mayor
Schmitz from his European trip.
Despite Ruef's repeated assertion
that he would do everything in his
power to secure a speedy trial on the
graft charges. he did not appear in
the courtroom but instead of urging
through his attorneys that the trial
be commenced without delay, asked
that he be given more time. District
Attorney Langdon acquiesced to Ach's
request, and the case was set over
