SCHM|TZ IS GUILTY
First Formal Conviction in Anti
Graft Campaign
WAGED IN SAN FRANCISCO
Ruef Pleaded Guilty to Charge of
Grating.
sCHMITZ MAYOR IN NAME ONLY
Statement From Attorney Heney.
Higher Court Not Likely to Pass
on Case for Some Time.
sCHMITz MAYOR IN NAME ONLY

SAN FRANCISCO June 14-Mayor Eu-
gene E. Schnitz was last night found guilty
of extorting money from keepers of French
restaurants in this city.
This is the first formal conviction in the
anti-graft campaign inaugurated several
months ago. ABE" Ruef, who was indicted
for similar offenses, pleaded guilty to the
charges and appeared as a witness against
Mayor Schmitz
When the verdict was announced Schmitz
sat unmoved with his left hand to his chin.
He apparently did not understand, and
asked Barrett:
What is it?
Guilty" said Barrett.
Schmitzs hand dropped to the table, but
he showed no other signs of emotion.
Former Judge Campbell began the closing
address to the jury on behalf of the de-
Tense. He asked for acquittal on the plea
that the state had failed to prove the guilt
of the mayor strictly within the phrase
illogical limits of the indictment.
Judge Lawlor postponed indefinitely the
trial of Louis Glass, vice president of the
Pacific Telephone Company indicted for
bribery, which was set for next Monday.
He announced that all preliminary matters
in the gas and trolley cases would be de-
cided before beginning the Glass other
trials, the Questions involved in all three
being identical.
SchmitZ spent last night at his home in
charge of a deputy sheriff. Today the dis
trict attorneys office will ask that he be
confined in the city prison in accordance
with the statutes.
Statement From Attorney Heney.
According to a statement made today by
Acting District Attorney Heney, Eugene E.
Schmitz, being convicted, becomes mayor in
name only. Though unable to perform the
duties of his office, under the law of Cali
fOrna Schmitz, it is said, still retains the
office
A state law provides that a convicted per-
son cannot be ousted from office until such
conviction has been upheld by a higher
court. AS cases move slowly on appeal, it
is considered likely that the higher court
will not pass upon this matter until after
the mayors term of office has expired.
Under the charter, however, SchmitZ should
he be sent to prison would be unable to
perform the duties of his office.
The supervisors under these circumstances
have no power to GUST him, but must select
one of their number to act mayor during
Schmitz's disability. Chairman Gallagher
of the finance committee of the board
would become acting mayor, leaving the
government practically in the hands of the
prosecutors, who; while they may be en-
powered to install new officials, may sue
coed in effecting extensive reforms in the
civil government.
