Government Attorneys Rec.
Ommend Action be Brought
to Annul Contracts.
MANY VIOLATIONS OF
ANTITRUST LAW REVEALED
Western Roads Are Using Profits
to Buy Control of East
ern Lines.

New York, May ia portion of
the recommendation of Attorneys
Frank b. Kellogg and Charles Sever
ance, of the Interstate commerce
commission, concerning the Harri-
man railroad Investigation has been
published here.
1t reviews the testimony and holds
that railroad competition has been
suppressed in an area equal to one
third of the United States; that con-
tracts between the Union Pacific and
Rock Island for the control of the AL
ton railway, as we'll. as contracts be-
tween the Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific on the control of the Illinois
Central and San Pedro roads, are all
violations Of the Sherman antitrust
act.
1t recommends that the attorney
general institute proceedings to annul
these agreements, and also recon-
mends that there should be new and
effective laws to prevent imitation OF
securities, and declares that the
profits of the great railroads of the
far west are being used to buy stocks
and control systems in the east in.
stead of building more roads for the
development of the west, as they
should be.

PROSECUTIONS STAR WIT

Chief Detective Mcfarland Is
Afraid For His
Life.

Boise, Idaho, May 15.-With ten
men in the box who have been pass
ed for cause by both the prosecution
and defense, the trial of Haywood
was resumed this morning.
1t is probable that not more than
two or three of the jurors now in the
box will be allowed to remain after
examination, with the privilege of a
peremptory challenge, is completed.
This means that it will yet be some
time before the trial jury is COM
pleted.
The examination of talesmen in the
selection of a jury to try Haywood to-
day developed the existence OF
prejudice against Harry Orchard
Under the examination by the de-
fense, Samuel Wingate who was
passed by the state, frankly said he
was prejudiced against the unoffered
testimony of Harry Orchard. Win
gate said he would absolutely refuse
to accept Orchards story.
Judge Wood sustained the state''
challenge. The defense took excep'
| ton.
Later another talesman said he
| too would be unable to give the tes-
| timony of Orchard the same credence
| that he would give the testimony Of
other witnesses.
The indication of this feeling lee

Political Boss Says That He
Took Money From French
Restaurant.
MAYOR SCHM|Tz IS
SAID TO HAVE SQUEALED
GrafterS OF San Francisco Are
Thrown Into Confusion by
Abe's Confession.

San Francisco, May 15--When the
trial opened today Attorney Ach re-
newed his motion for change OF
venue.
Judge Dunno denied the motion.
but granted a recess until o'clock
in order that the attorneys might
confer with Ruef ION a matter Of
considerable importance"
When the court reconvened Ruef
entered plea of guilty.
Ruef's plea of guilty was to the
charge of extortion on which the
about to begin.
The specific charge In the indict-
ment concerned the payment to Ruef
of $1,175 by the proprietors of the
Delmonico French restaurant to Sc
cure for the place permission to sell
liquor in private rooms.
This change on the part Of the de-
| fense from denial to confession is
| said to be the result of an UNDER
standing reached between the prose-
cution and Schmitz.
The report that Schmitz had reach
ed an understanding with the prose-
cution gained circulation yesterday
and caused great excitement In graft
| circles. CONSERVATION reigned among
the heads of the various departments
of the city government. and there
was much speculation as to impend-
| ing changes among the officials who
are personal appointees of the
mayor. 1t is expected that the fall of
the mayor will bring a host of other
| seekers after immunity to the office
of the district attorney with offers
to confess and reform. But the sup
ply of immunity is growing short
land there may be many who viii be
bitterly disappointed.
The report of the confession Of
lSchmitz did not disturb the equanim-
ity of Patrick Calhoun, president OF
the United Railroads. He had heard
liz early In The day, and wii!ie be ed
not credit It. he declased that II was
a matter OF complete iudinerene ,
him what Schmitz might tell the
graft prosecution.
Calhoun Claims Indifference.
"It is quite immaterial to me what
Mayor Schmitz tells the graft prose-
cutors because he cannot 1rut2fuIlsy uIls =
tell them anything which can sup
port any of the charges made against
the United Railroads"
Further than this statement, Cal
houn said he did not care to discuss
the matter.
Mayor Schmitz was i'm the city yes
terday and spent the afternoon In his
automobile. visiting Golden Gate park
and the beach. He adhered to his
rule, refusing to discuss any matters
bearing upon the graft situation.
There were a number of anxious call
ers at his residence during the after
noon, among whom were many Of
fcials prominent i'm the city govern
ment. who came to secure confirma-
ton of the report that he had Joined
the ranks of the reformers. He did
not see any of these callers. and re-
fused to answer any telephone In
quiries.
Abe Ruef was another who was
much interested in the report of the
confession of the mayor, but. except
to say that he did not believe II. he
refused to comment upon the mat
ter.
His subsequent plea of guilty Is
evidence that Ruef did believe the
confession story

114STREET CARS
RUNNING IN
FRISCO
Seven Lines In Operation
Company Threatens to Re.
Arm Strike Breakers.

san Francisco, May 15.-One hun
dred and fourteen cars of the United
Railroads are being operated on seven
lines in the city today, the routes be-
of the Haight street line, which has
been extended from Nineteenth ave-
nue. to the Cliff House.
United Railroad officials make no
secret OF their intention to re-arm
their operatives if the lives Of any OF
them are sacrificed.
on Sutter street the cars were fair
ly well patroniZed. On the Turk and
Eddy system the patronage was very
meager, great many of the cars not
carrying as many passengers as there
were strike-b breakers in attendance.
Some of these cars passed along with
out a single passenger. All the cars
were in the barns before o'clock at
night, though there was seemingly no
reason why they should not have been
run until nightfall, at least.
No throwing of bricks or stones was
reported. At Pierce and Scott streets
some people threw eggs at some of
the cars and escaped arrest. There
was a good deal Of jeering and cries
of "Scab!" as the strike-breakers
passed along.
AS a general thing the police kept
the people moving. There was nothing

For a Second Time Oil Mag
nate Will Have to Submit to
Texas SheriffS Attentions.
CASE WILL Be CARRIED
TO HIGHER COURT
judge Adams Thinks That Sl0.-
600 Will Keep Defendant
From Running Away.

st. Louis. Mo, May 15.-H. Clay
Pierce. chairman of the board of di-
rectors of the Waters-Pierce Oil COM
pany, was today remanded to the Gus
tody of Sheriff Mathews, of Texas, to
answer to the indictment which
charges him with perjury, by de-
cision rendered this morning by
Judge Adams. in the United States
circuit court here.
Judge Adams denied the applica-
tion of Pierce for a writ OF habeas
corpus.
Pierce is wanted in Texas TO
answer an indictment charging per-
jury in an affidavit made by him in
May, 1900, to the effect that the
Waters-Pierce Oil company was not
party to pool, trust, confedera-
ton or commission in restraint OF
trade.
After Judge Adams read his de-
cision, Priest, attorney for Pierce
Immediately asked that in delay In
the execution of the courts order be
granted until o'clock this afternoon
to enable him to decide whether to
make an appeal to the United States
court of appeals or directly to the
state supreme court. The judge
granted the request.
Attorney Barclay representing the
state of Texas asked that the cour
increase the bond of $4,000 under
-Thich Pierce was released from Gus
tody, when he surrendered May 8
but the judge stated that the bone
would remain at that amount until
o'clock.
Pierce had nothing to say as h,
left the court room with his attor
uey.
When the court reconvened at
o'clock Attorney Priest gave motto
formally that two appeals would b'
taken from the decision of Judg
Adams one to the United States cir
cult court of appeals and one to th
United States supreme court
The court theen admitted Pierce t

and $500 in stock. At Cripple Creek
he married a widow, Mrs. Tony.
shortly before the Independence dy-
namiting. He deserted her. Further
facts of his record are under lock
and key guarded by those now prose-
cutting the miners.
Attorney Miller, who will defend
the miners at Boise, says 1T is the
same old story. The mine owners
are bending every energy and spend
Ing unlimited money in their effort
to convict the federation officials for
murder for which an individual
alone is responsible. The same tao
ties have been used in every dynamit-
ing trouble in the history of the Bit
ter war of the mine owners on or
ganized labor. During the Colorado
trouble the state spent $S5O,0OO try
ing to break up the federation. At
Cripple Creek they caused 500 ar
rests and secured no conviction. At
Couer d'Alene they threw $50 min
ers into the bull pen and were able
to convict only one"
Detective MCFARLAND says: Il am
absolutely sure Of conviction. l was
not sure when we went into court
with the Molly Maguires, but we have
corroboration Of Orchards chief con-
fession, which leaves no loophOle for
escape"

ORCHARD CHARGED WITH
BEING A DEFECTIVE

Boise, Idaho, May 15.-Harry Or
chard, who, the miners charge, is but
hired detective of the operators
was born in New York state in 1862.
Orphaned at an early age, he was
raised by Mrs. Annie Hogan, a friend
of the family, and took the name of
Hogan. He graduated in the School
of Mines as a mineraloglst and went
to work in the mines at Butte. He
was a gambler for several years and
used the aliases Williams and Demp-
sey. Getting hard up, he staked his
last quarter on a roulette wheel, won
$4O0 and visited Couer d'Alene, Grip
pie Creek and Denver, finally return
ing to Couer d'Alene. In 1899 he
owned a fourth interest in the Her

ARIZONA IS THE SCENE
Of A RANGE
WAR

Special to The Evening Citizen.
Phoenix, Ariz., May 15.-The old
time feud between the cattlemen and
the sheep herders threatens to be re-
called to life in the Kirkland neigh
borhood. a. 7. Meadows died sud-
denly recently as result of wounds
in the groin inflicted by a Mexican
herder, whom he killed in a duel over
the Mexican allowing some of his
sheep to become mixed with the goat
herd of Meadows.
Hot words were exchanged between
the two and four eyewitnesses say the
Mexican fired four shots with an au-
tomatic pistol before Meadows Sc
cured his rife and his unerring aim
ended the life of his assailant.
The coroner's verdict was that both
met their death at the hands of the
other. Meadows leaves a wife and
six children in poor circumstances.
The incident has stirred up the
Walnut grove and Kirkland commun-
tiles and the cattlemen and farmers
say that unless the sheep herders
cease their encroachments on their
rights that the old time war will be
renewed.
