Magnates' Cases
TO Be Taken
Up Next
Heney Spends Day
Preparing for
Bribe Trial
Interest in Mayors
Conviction Worldwide

There will be no letup in the cam
paign of the graft prosecution. This
was announced yesterday at the red
mouse in Franklin street, where the
plan of battle has been mapped out.
The mayor is to be allowed a short
respite. He and Ruef, the arch con-
-spirators. are prisoners. Heney will
now. turn his attention to the mag
mates who are accused of bribery.
After these cases have been set in
motion Sehmitz will be put on trial to
answer to the charge of bribery.
For the present the grand jury will
be allowed to rest. Heney's attention
will be taken up entirely with court
matters and the members. of the in
quisitorial body will seek the shades OF
the summer resorts untH called back to
duty by Foreman Oliver.
Heney received a number of mes
sages yesterday from friends congrat-
ulating him upon the outcome of the
Schmitz trial.. The leader of the prose-
cution put in as busy a day though as
if on the eve of another closing argu-
ment. He was visfbly pleased at the
public's approval of the jury's ver-
dict.
The conviction of Schmitz was dis

classes of citizens. One heard it in
the streetcars, in clubs, in hotel lob
bies and in the street. Only here and
there was there an expression of dis
satisfaction and such sentiment came
only from the close personal friends of
the mayor. Surprise was general that
the jury had been able to find a verdict
in such quick time. The impression
had prevailed that ii would require
several hours of argument among the
jurors themselves to bring them to an
agreement
Not only was intense interest shown
here. but in the large eastern cities, ac-
cording to DISPATCHES received last
night the downfall of the mayor was
widely discussed. The news of the
mayors conviction was given wide
publicity by the press associations. To
eastern cities a story of 5000 words in
length, or more than six columns of
matter. was telegraphed. The news
was then cabIed to London and from
there dispatched to Paris. Berlin and
other large centers in Europe.

Aims to Disbar
the Indicted
Lawyers
Bar Association Is
to Make InveS-
tigation
Young Attorneys Stir
Organization TO Action

The members Of the bar association
who are under Indictment for grating
and boodling may be disbarred by the
supreme court before their cases even
come to trial At the regular meeting
of the association yesterday afternoon
resolution was passed after much
discussion empowering the grievance
committee to investigate the truth OF
the charges made against the indicted
lawyers.
The resolution was presented by
William Denman and seconded by John
NJ. Burnett It reads as follows:
Resolved. that the grievance COM
n1ittee be Instructed TO investigate the
conduct OF the members of the bar as
sociation of California now under In
dictment in the city and county of San

capacity. and to report to the associ-
alton It's findings. together with it's
Recommendations, IL any"
Although no names were mentioned
those against whom the resolution is
directed are Tirey l.. Ford. William NJ
Abbott, Abraham Ruef. William I. Bro
beck and James L. Gallagher. 1t was
rather surprising to the members to
find Judge Cope present and presiding.
although it was known to most In ad-
vance what would be the principal ac-
tion taken at the meeting. Judge Cope,
besides being a partner of Brobeck.
was himself mentioned in connection
with the graft scandal, but was not
indicted.
The point brought forward in the
discussion was the difference between a
crime and an offense against the court.
In two cases the supreme court of CAL
ifornia has disbarred attorneys from
practice although they had not then
been convicted
The present activity on the part of
the bar association has been brought
about by the younger men in the pro-
fAssiOn.

Attorneys for Mayor Hoped
Until Last for Hung Jury
Appeal Will Be Prepared at
Once for Schmitz

1t was learned yesterday that UP to
the last the attorneys defending Mayor
Schmitz had expected a disagreement
They were greatly surprised when the
jury returned in such quick time with
its verdict. While Attorney Barrett of
the defense was inclined to be violent
in his abuse of the judge and jury, his
associates on the defense were disposed
TO view the matter in a calmer manner.
A conference of the mayors attorneys
was held yesterday at which Schmitz
was present and a plan of action was
adopted An appeal will be prepared as
soon as possible. and in the meantime
every effort will be made. to keep
Schmitz in the mayors office. While no
member of Schmitzs legal staff. cared
to go on record as saying that he would
oppose the plan of the prosecution to
put an acting mayor at the helm, it
was stated that no stone would be left
unturned.
It was suggested TO the mayors at
torneys, that the entire situation would
be cleared were Schmitz 10 resign.

Barrett was not nonpiused at the
question; he was only amused and had
his answer ready quickly. He said:

The court record is full of errors.
There was never anything like it. The
higher court can't help but throw it

court has the power to review the case

Railroad Detective Makes
Charge Against w. J.Bmns
Latter Says That Accuser
Tried to NEEDLE in Case

TOLEDO, O., June 14.-It is common
opinion here that the San Francisco
authorities are not making any great
effort to capture A. K Detwiler, the
Toledo capitalist indicted bys the San
Francisco grand jury on a~charge of
bribery. John Mclaughlin, head of
the detective department of the Penn
sylyania railroad, who has been in the
employ of Attorney Raymond Burns
and who has had charge of the San
Francisco end of the case, has quit in
disgust and says that Burns is four
fusher and Is not half trying to locate
Detwiler who, according to McLaugh-
lin, could easily be found in short order
II proper search were made.
A prominent Toledo banker said to-
day that Detwiler would never be
captured. There is too much at stake
in this city to allow the capture, he
said Detwiler interested Toledo men
In the telephone deal and should he be
taken and convicted 1t might mean
the loss of the franchise and the money
invested and also the bankruptcy Of
several Toledo capitalists. 1t also
might cause a run on the bank in
terested with Detwiler.
In discussing Mclaughlin last night
Detective Burns said:
Mclaughlin has been trying for sew
eral weeks to intrude himself into the
Detwiler affair, and went so far as to
write me two or three letters in which
he offered his services to us in any plan
we might have for experimenting the
fugitive millionaire. We did not take
kindly to his Ineddling with our affairs
and as much as told him so in a re-
cent letter which I sent him. If he is
preparing to make any sensational
charges would suggest that he In
corporate in them the contents OF the
letter ] sent him a few days ago. II
will show him to the public in the light
in which have regarded him and
clearly explain why we are not de-
sirpus of having his proffered assist

don promptly interposed the states OBJ
lection, and the court advised Camp
bell that he would listen to argument
on a formal motion if the prisoner
chose to present such a motion. He
further advised the counsel for the
prisoner that If any variation from

the court it would be only on an un-
usual showing.

will resist the motion for admission

Campbell told the court that if he
decided to again appear in that court
he would present and argue his formal
motion this morning After securing
the postponement of two pending cases
against Schmitz for two weeks. Camp
bell Reft the court with his client, fol-
lowed at a respectful distance by
DOMINIC. Beban. legislator and deputy
sheriff, charged with the surveillance
of the Convicted mayor.
Schmtz came into court with Camp
bell. He was accompanied by Beban,
who had mounteds constructive guard
over the mayor imprisoned in his own
mansion. The attitude sof the deputy
and the distance between himself and
his prisoner that he maintained led a
majority of those in court to believe
that Schmitz was not even in con-
structive sense in custody.
1t was a different Schmitz who came
to the bar of justice yesterday morn
ing. He came to plead for an unusual
concession to convict, where but a
few hours before he had denied his
guilt and -defied his accusers.
His prison had been his own home
the home of his affluent days. He had
not felt the cold steel of manacles nor
heard the clang of iron doors. But the
night had told on him. His eyes were
tired and worn. There was no defiance
on his face. His step had lost its
spring. The sneer was gone and his
attempts to smile at the faithful few
henchmen near the rail were not con-
vincing.
School Director Thomas Boyle was
there with Sheriff O'Neil Boyle crossed
the room to express his condolences.
O'Neil contented himself with expan-
sive smiles. There the demonstration
for or against the mayor began and
ended.

Convicted Mayor
Goes to Rest
In aCell
Spends First Night
Behind Bars of
County Jail
Travels Out San Jose
Road i'm Automobile

Mayor Schmitz spent last night in
Jail. Behind the bars, beyond the bolts
of branch county jail No.s2, he was de-
tanned. The convicted official was not
herded into a cell with less notorious
felons. He was given cot in sepa-
rate room, but he was in the quar-
ters" of criminals-the Incarceration
was complete. The guards who pa
trolled the grounds with loaded rifles
were there to keep Schmitz in dtgance
as certainly to ward against the es-
cape Of the most brutal murderer or
craven sneak thief confined within the
walls.
At $50 D. m. Schmitz and his warder,
Deputy Sheriff Dominic Beban, ar
rived at the steel grated building in
the San Jose road near Inglesfde. They
came in the red automobile Which the
city had bought for Mayor Schnlitz.
The trip had been made directly from
the mayors house at Green and Pierce
streets
At the outer gates Beban had to stop
and explain his errand, and then there
was the turn of great key in a strong
lock and the heavy oaken door swung
back TO allow the prisoner to enter.
The prisoners were being put to bed
at the time the mayor arrived. From
distant corridors he could hear the
CidDR Oh steer QOOFS anu lDt ildTSU OI
ders of guards and jailers. The despair
of confinement permeated to the outer
Office of the Jail, and though Superin-
tendent Kerwin and the guards greet
ed the mayor with some warmth il was
apparent that the big, dark bearded
man was the prisoner and they were
the jailers.
Thursday night Schnitz remained at
his own home. Sheriff O'Neil was
lenient, and the prisoner, with the
words, Guilty as charged in the in
dictment," seething in his memory, was
but nominally in the custody of Deputy
Sheriff Beban- Yesterday morning at
10 o'clock he appeared at the Bush
street temple to be brought before the
court. After his attorneys had secured
a delay until today to present their ar
guments on motion for admission to
bail Schmitz went with them and a
long consultation was held between the
prisoner and ]. c. Campbell, William H.
Metson and Frank II. Drew in the
firms law Offices at Laguna and Turk
streets.
After the conference Schmitz went to
his office for a short time and then went
home to luncheon and to prepare some
of his personal effects. In the after
noon he returned to his office, and at
dinner time went with Beban to his
home again. When on the street Beban
kept an unobtrusive distance from the
convicted man.
Shortly before O'clock Schmitz left
his comfortable home for the barred
prison. The arrived there at $3.50 O'Clock
and at 10 o'clock went to bed.

YOUNG BRIDE DESERTS
HER AGED HUSBAND

TOLEDO, o., June 14,-Benjamin
Schwab a prominent Toledo druggist,
today secured divorce from his pretty
young bride of 10 years. who six weeks
ago eloped to San Francisco with
George Corner. private secretary to
Eugene Zimmerman, railroad magnate
and president of the Detroit. Toledo
and Ironton railroad.
Schwab, who is 64 years of age and
paralyzed on one side, made a most
pathetic figure in court when relating
the story of how his young bride pre-
ferred to be "a young mans slave than
an old mans darling"
Schwab was married In 1904. Imme-
diately upon their marriage the couple
took an extensive tour In Europe
Schwab states he spent $3.50 per month
on his wife, for she was the idol of his
eye.
