CHAPTER XXI.
An Unaxpected Swim,

FOR time II seemed to me that the
fellows life must have been lost and
that his body had hoated down the
stream with the current, which In
creased steadily In force as It neared
Sthe falls, some two miles below.
] Whence he had come did not
know. for could not conceive that
I . man would be SWIMMING In the river
at this time of year. and. just as was
about to row ashore and report the
affair to those who could institute
proper search for the body. an idea
flashed into my head ana served 70
explain the matter In short order.
The ghosts. or at least the men
who unprecedented them, had always
disappeared from sight at this point
on the river bank, and, doubtless, they
had. dived into the water and found
shelter somewhere under the shore.
II this were the case. man might
easily enough have ventured out from
his hiding place, and, upon seeing me,
returned and waited until the coast
was clear again.
pulled in close to the shore, and,
padding slowly along under the over
hanging hank, I soon discovered =
broad flight OF stone steps lying en-
tirely beneath the surface Of the wa
ter, and leading apparently to some
sort OF tunnel 81, cave.
As / made this discovery / had no
doubt that the mysterious figure I had
seen had emerged from this sunken
tunnel, and, upon encountering me,
had returned to 1t with all possible
haste, certainly had no desire to fol-
low him through the submerged en-
trance to his place Of concealment,
but determined to Gust him with
out delay. and leaving my skin at the
boathouse, / returned for a Anal re-
connoiter before summoning gang
OF men to dig down from above and
lay bare the subterranean vault to
which the submerged stairway doubt
loss led.
Clambe1ns UP ON the knoll that
overlooked this part of the river, I
cast my eye in every direction up and
down the stream, Keeping as close q
watch as possible on the entire land
scape, and, even sooner than ] had
expected, was rewarded by seeing
the fellows head again emerge from
the water about 20 feet of shore.
AS ha shook the drops from his face
and glanced about him apprehensive-
~ crouched low down on the ground,
hack of a brush, and watched him at
tentiyely from this point of vantage.
His countenance was SO distorted
with the cold and the water in his
eyes that could not have recognized
him even II / had seen him hesDrc,
and he seemed to swim with great diff
fieulty, doubtless because Of the icy
chill Of the water; but he went brave
" about it and struck out manfully
for the shore, which he reached in .
few sturdy strokes.
As he got into shallow water and
made his way to the land, could see
that he was fully dressed, even to his
shoes, and that he was shiverng vio-
lently from the effect Of his exertfoh
and the exposure to which he had
been subjected.
/ was almost on the point Of calling
gut to him and offering him s1ch as
sistance as / could render lest he
should collapse before my eyes, when
]. discovered that he, himself, had
made provision for this contingency.
From under a growth of underbrush
he hurriedly extracted heavy ulster
or storm coat and, taking task from

Frisco Mayor Files Sensation
al Charges of Conspiracy
Against Judge
SCHEME TO SEIZE THE CITY
Declares Spreokles and His Associates
Plan to Gain Possession of Fran
ehise, With Courts Aid-Demands
Change Of Venue in His TriaI-Ruef
to Give More Testimony.

San Francisco, May 2U-Mayor
Schmitz, whose trial before Judge
Dunno on the charge of conspiracy is
to begin today, has filed sensational
charges against the judge and Rudolph
Spreckels.
The mayor accuses Judge Dunno of
being Interested in a conspiracy which
has for its object the seizure of the
municipal government and the grab
bing of the street railway and other
franchises worth millions of dollars.
With this charge as q foundation,
Mayor Schmitz demands trial out
side of San Francisco and before an
other Judge.
The mayors charges are contained in
an affidavit filed with the clerk of the
court late Saturday night. Among his
allegations are:
That Rudolph Spreekels and his as
sociates who are with him the financial
guarantorsfof the bribery graft inves-
tigation and prosecution, long since
exhausted the, original fund of $780,
900 pledged by Spreckels, and have ex-
pended nearly 100000 in the munici-
pal publication campaign.
That the expenditure OF this vast
sum of money is by way of an, invest
ment from which actual moneyed re-
turns are expected.
That Spreckels and his associates de-
sire and purpose to overthrow the
present municipal administration in or
der that they themselves may assume
the reins of government and secure
for themselves street railway and Wat-
or franchises which will net them nils
lions of dollars of the public money,
That Judge Dunno is aware of this
intent and purpose and is Herewith IN
accord.
The prosecution plans today to ask
the court to place Mayor Schmitz In
the custody Of an elisor. 1t is proha-
BILE that before the end of this week
seventy indictments will he returned
against the mayor for his participation
In the alleged bribery Of the supervise
ore. Abe Ruef has stated that the
mayor was party to all of the deals
in which money was passed to mem
DGTS iuI lAe tttiiSs aokosAsS
this iniitself constitutes bribery
With all these indictments against
him, the mayor. his opponents claim,
will be unable to secure bail. He will
then be placed in the custody of Will
lam ]. Bissgy and most unusual situa-
ton will result, The mayor of the city
will be captive unable to perform his
duties. H. Schmitz then refuses to re-
sign, deadlock will occur. Should he
resign. it would be incumbent upon
the supervisors TO elect his successor.
The mayors attorneys declare that
Schmitz will be on hand today when
his trial will be called. The mayor
himself verified this and added that he
would be acquitted and then would
make plans to run for mayor again
at the November elections.
During the week Abe Ruef will again
take the stand before the grand jury
and under oath, lit is asserted, will
state that Mayor Schmitz aided in the
bribery OF the supervisors in every
Doodle deal. s
