RuEF'S ATTORNEYS
PLAY TRUMP GARD
AS A LAST RESORT
By Associated Press.

oy f-TeSS,
SAN FRANCISCO, March 6.-That
counsel for Abraham Ruef have not
exhausted their resources but still have
hopes of saving their client from imme-
date trial was made known this even
ing when one of their number went be-
fore the district court of appeals with
an application in behalf of Ruef for a
writ of prohibition restraining Superior
Judge Dunno from proceeding with the
hearing of the felony charges brought
against Ruef by the grand jury.
The application is based on the fact
of the issuance of the temporary writ
of error by Superior Judge Hebbard.
which enabled Ruef to apply to the SUI
preme court of the United States for a
permanent writ of error. Ruefs law
yers contend that by virtue of the lat
ter proceedings their client has gained
sixty days stay of all procedure in
the superior courts and on this showing
they ask that Judge Dunno be re-
strained.
The application to the court of ap-
peals was not signed by Ruef, but by
his counsel. Ruef's signature to the ap-
plication would have been an admission
OF his presence within the Jurisdiction
OF Judge DUNES court--a fact which
the prosecutor asserts and the defense
declares ignorance OF.
The failure OF Ruef to attach his sig
nature to the application, however, has
raised the question whether Ruef has
any standing before the court of ap-
peals. Justices Cooper Hall and Kerri-
gan, composing that tribunal, will rem
der their decision tomorrow upon the
application.

SACRAMENTO, March 6.-Senator
Sanford's bill prohibiting corporations
from directly or indirectly contributing
money for political purposes was
passed in the senate today. The meas
ure is practically the same as the law
now in effect in New York and which
was passed in that state as result
of the insurance Investigations.
The bill not only prohibits the con-
Itributing by corporation or joint
stock association to campaign funds,
but makes it unlawful for them to as
sist by the use of money or other prop
erty any person in securing a nomi-
nation or a candidate for office.
The law applies equally to the giver
and receiver and makes it punishable
by a fine of $500 or Imprisonment for
one year.
The senate this afternoon killed
Caminettfs anti-caucus bill, which
sought to make secret caucuses sun-
lawful. Caminetti got but two votes
for the measure besides his own, that
of Bell and Cartwright.
Mild Form of Treason
Caminetti termed caucus rule a mild
form of treason and declared that the
people were rebelling against 1t and
machine government. Wolfe said the
bill was nonsensical.
After causing an exceedingly bitter
and -drawn-out fight, which COM
menced with the convening of the leg
islature, the Fresno-Kings county di-
vision controversy was so quietly set
tied today that hardly any attention

LIFE NOW IN

Instructions Are Not

Judge Richardson Takes Exceptions
to Courts Remarks to Twelve
Men Who viii Decide the
Prisoners Fate
BY Associated Press.

~ G9opNidNtu EItSSs
WALLACE, Idaho, March 6.-Judge
Woods today completed his instructions
and the jury retired to decide whether
Steve Adams Is guilty or innocent Of
the murder of Fred Tyler.
At the close of the instructions Judge
Richardson for the defense took excep-
tion to the judges charge to the jury.
1t is claimed that in framing his in
structions the judge accepted few of
those offered by the defense, but in
corporated large proportion of those
offered by the state.
NO reference to the Western Fedora
t1on of Miners appeared in the instruc-
tions of the court.
In his charge to the jury Judge Woods
said in part:
You are to decide whether Fred Ty-
Ter is dead, whether his death is the
result of felony and whether that
felony was committed by the defendant.
If you have a reasonable doubt on any
of these points the defendant is entitled
to the benefit
Confession Not Enough
Guilt cannot be proved by confess
sion alone without corroborative evil
dence, showing the commission of the
crime, unless such confession is made in
open court.
"If the jury believes the defendants
confession was given freely and vol
UNFAIRLY it should have weight. If it
is found that coercion was brought to
bear on the defendant to secure his
confession in regard to the murder of
Former Governor Steunenburg but that
his confession of the murder of Fred
Tyler was made apart from this CO.
ercion it is your duty to give his con-
fession weight.
Anything in relation to the murder
of Steunenburg or Boule is entirely out
side of this case. The troubles between
the settlers in the st. Joe country have
nothing to do with this case except as
to their results in the killing of Fred
Tyler. The law permits no man to take
the law in his own hands,"

MISSIONS IN CHINA
GROWTH OF GOSPEL WORK DUR.
 ING A HUNDRED YEARS.
Centenary of the Establishment Of the First Station in the Celestial Kingdom to Be Celebrated
 in April.

It is just 100 years ago that the first missionary began work in China, and that event is to be celebrated in April by missionary conference. Robert Morrison was the first man to feel the call and to gain access to the seques. tered kingdom. For six years he la. bored alone, when in 1913 Milne, who died nine years later, joined him. The place left vacant was taken by Med. hurst, and together these two men labored for years without any visible results, but full of faith that God was with them and that eventually the Gospel would win it's triumphs. And this confidence was not misplaced as may be easily appreciated by a con. sideratioin of the growth of missions in China since 1S42. when the country was first really opened to missionary work.
 A perusal of the statistics of these missionary efforts is both interesting and instructive, and illustrative of how the little mustard seed of beginnings has grown steadily through the years until 1t has become a great spreading tree of missionary activity. Some tables condensed from the Church Missionary Intelligencer tell the story.
