STILL ARGUING TO QUASH.

Defense in Case of Ruef and Schmitz
Resume Closing Arguments.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13-After
some delay the trial Of Schmitz and
Reuf, proceeded in Judge Dunne's court
this morning.
Attorney Shortridge resumed the
closing argument for the defense on a
motion to quash the indictments and
read federal decisions in support of the
contention that indictments were IL
legally brought.
Schmitz and Reuf greeted each
other cordially. There appears to be
no foundation for the rumor that a
break between the mayor and Reuf
is imminent.
Schmitz and Reuf were plainly dis
appointed at the result of the prelim-
mary skirmish with the counsel for
the state. Schmitz displayed no emo
tion but Immediately left the court.
The judge ordered all the witnesses
to be present Monday at 10 o'clock
when the trial will be resumed. Now
it is thought the trial will proceed
without a hitch as the defense merely
wished to establish a long list of ex-
ceptions which will be made the basis
Of an argument when the case comes

WALLA WALLA HAS CHANCE.
To Organize MiiItia Company in Pre-
ference to Other Cities.

Although four other cities are
clamoring for an opportunity to or
ganize militia companies Walla Wal
la will be given the opportunity to get
together the company which will fill
the only vacant place in the Second
regiment Of Washington, if that city
desires to take advantage of the
chance.
This much was apparent from a
statement made by Adjutant General
Ortis Hamilton who was recently here
on his return to the state capitol. He
said that he was highly pleased at the
purospects for an excellent company.
'Walla Walla has not had a COM
pany of the National Guard for several
years." said the general. TT had a
strong organization in the days of the
old First Washington, and maintained
a company when the Second was or
ganized, but it was mustered out a
year after it's organization"

Mr.. Lorton feels aggrieved that The
Statesman should imply that he
lodged a meeting with DR.. Suttner, or
his attorney; now the editorial in The

occurs this statement: "a telephone

Suttner's attorney, this afternoon was
to the effect that the lying skunk on

PRIESTS ARE BEING GR|LLED|
Officials Subject 69 Arrested
Churchmen to Rigid
Examination

PARIS, Dec. 13-The masses We're
said this morning in all the Roman
Catholic churches. Nothing except the
unusual crowds indicated a crisis. Po-
lice in citizens clothes attended to
preserve order, and to take the names
of priests officiating without the gov
ernment licenses.
Later 50 clergymen were summoned
charged with holding services without
legal authority.
Laymen are making the necessary
applications for churches which thus
become entitled to be used for religious
purposes. The pope is likely to disa
vow the acts of layment but they go on
without regard to the vatican as the
foreign power" and pay no attention
to its edicts.
the arrested priests were examined
singly. Each answered that as a free
citizen he had the right to say pray
ers wherever he pleased, if the others
present in the churches did not regard
them.
The officials then asked them to sign
declarations for their future action if
such a course was decided upon. They
were permitted to go with the warn
ing that there were likely to be fresh
proceedings.
