Witness Before the Grand Jury Involves
Boss in Graft on Theaters

Market streets. This place of arnuse-
ment, II gossip along the Rialto is to be
believed. will furnish a fruitful Held
of investigation for the graft prosecu-
tors. 1t was originally a tent and the
Board of Public Works Is. said to have
taken it's clew when a roof was being
built over the Enclosure. This work
was stopped several times. but prompt
ing from some source finally resulted
in all objection to the place being with
drawn. Heney is confident that he can
prove what led to the change in the
role adopted by the Board of Public
Works.
Max Dill has already testified on this
subject, but Heney has been holding
back additional information in his pos
session concerning 1t. This is expected
to be produced on Tuesday, and the
nature of the revelations will be OF q
most positive character.
The inquiry into the entire theater
graft will probably be concluded on
Tuesday or Wednesday,, as Heney is
anxious to sift it to the bottom before
proceeding to other matters.

FEW FIRMS FAVORED
Graft in City Supplies VIII Soon Be
Investigated

The Grand Jury will take up new
line this week, when 1t begins an in
vestigation into the sales of supplies to
the city. 1t is claimed that a few ia
vored individuals have secured almost
all of the contracts. The men who
were thus enabled to fatten at the pub
lie trough will be summoned as wit
nesses The extent to which this form
of graft has been carried on has come
as d surprise to even those who were
acquainted with the intricate schemes
Of the administration.
Although the charter provides that
bids shall be invited for all contracts
in excess of $500. this was avoided by
cutting the larger contracts into sec
lions. When an order for $1,000 worth of
goods was placed with a favored firm the
bill would be presented in three parts.
none of them in excess of $780, In this
way the deal had the outward appear
ance of legality and the favored Arm
pocketed handsome profit.
Accountants who have been at work
on the books of the Auditors Office
have learned that the city is paying
$4,000 a month in rentals. OF this
amount $3.50 month goes for the use
of three rooms in the Levy home, at
Post and Franklin streets, where the
Mayor has his office. Levy owns the
lot on O'FarreIl street on which the
Belvedere stood The accountants who
are At work on the books of the city
officials will report to the Grand Jury
at the end of the week. These reports
will be the basis for further investiga-
lions.
While the array of counsel which
has appeared in open court for Mayor
Schmitz and Abe Ruef is a formidable
one, it by no means represents the en-
tire legal force which has been brought
into the case on behalf of the indicted
pair. 1t is stated that Garrett McEner-
ney has been retained for Schnitz and
that W. F. Herrin is lending assfstt

bflfty Of enligrants before they are
permitted to embark for America are
among the recommendations made by
Victor H Metcalf, Secretary of Com
merce and Labor. in his annual report.
transmitted to Congress yesterday.
The Secretary's report deals with the
Chinese exclusion laws and their en-
forcement comprehensively, and fur
nishes some interesting statistics COW
ering the fiscal year ending June 80.
1906. Increased efficiency in the Blu
reau OF immigration has resulted in a
marked decrease in the number of vio-
lations of the law and the treaties.
Especially is this true in the matter of
persons attempting to enter the United
States by impersonating members of
the exempt classes.
The whole number of exempt Chinese
seeking admission for the first time
was 32S, of whom 135 were officials.
OF this number nineteen were deported
for fraud or because they were AFFLICTED
with contagious disease. The whole
number of returning laborers was $50,
of whom all but eighteen were admit
ted. and 811 Chinese were admitted on
the claim of American citizenship by
birth. The whole number OF Chinese
of all classes admitted was 2752, de-
barred 205.
On the subject of European immigra-
ton Secretary Metcalf says that the
appointment of resident physicians at
European ports would save much hard
ship experienced by deported persons,
who have expended all their funds get
ting to America and who may be sepa-
rated from their families after reach
ing this country. He also recommends
that a strict limit be placed upon the
number of immigrants each vessel en-
gagged in the trade may carry.
Special praise is given the depart
ment's special agents who have been
engaged in studying trade conditions
abroad and whose reports have been
highly beneficial TO American manu-
facturers and jobbers The whole num-
Der of persons regularly employed in
the department is $500. and the total
expenditures for the year were s1e,-

the theater owners of san Francisco by
Abe Ruef.

graft are in possession of agents of
Special Prosecutor Francis ]. Heney,
and Will comprise the chief evidence
on which indictments are expected to
be returned by the Grand Jury when it
reconvenes on Tuesday.
Yesterdays developments in the the
alter graft threw more light the in
vestigation being made into it by
agents OF Heney
Sam Loverich, who is partner in
the Novelty Theater with Tony Lubel-
ski, is among the witnesses secured by
the prosecution to testify to Ruefs
share in the graft.
When he left the jury room after
testifying on Friday Loverich would
not admit that his testimony had in
volved Ruef, but it was definitely eS-
tablished yesterday that he was one of
the star witnesses produced by Heney.
Loverich. it appears, made every eff
fort TO shield Ruef, but the array of
evidence in possession of Heney
amazed him and .le was finally COM
PEELED to make admissions that went
to make up the strongest proof of the
extortion practiced by Ruef that has
yet been secured by the prosecution.
WILL BE RECALLED
Loverich is to be recalled to the
will be supplemented by that of three
other theater owners.
All of these witnesses have already
testified before the Grand Jury, and the
nature of their evidence is of a most
conclusive character. Heney himself
has been making every effort to keep
this fact a secret. From past expert
ences with witnesses who have been
examined on other phases of graft he
is aware that systematic intimidation
is being carried out by agents of the
gang being investigated, and he is ex-
ercising every precaution to combat II.
II developed yesterday that the tes-
timony already given before the Grand
Jury in connection with the theater
graft is but small part of the case
prepared against Ruef by Heney, who
is reserving his main battery OF facts
for presentation the coming week. he
is certain that these facts will result
in indictments and add another chapter

Ruef will have to stand. trial.

MASKED ROBBERS
HOLD UP SALOON

LOS ANG ELES, Dec. S.-Three masked
men last night entered a saloon near
the Salt Lake depot and secured nearly
$500 from the cash register, the bar
tender and nine patrons of the place.
The robbers entered with drawn re-
volvers and searched their victims after
robbing the register. The trio left the
place threatening to kill any one who
would venture to follow. Shortly aft
erward three brakemen were held up
and robbed by the same men.
