lies and Answer.
WRANGLING AMONG COUNSEL
Before Ruef Could Answer the First
Question the Attorneys Started An
Argument Which Lasted Until Ad-
Adjournment.

SAN FRANCISCO, June ll.--At the
close Of the Mayor Sehmitz extortion
trial for the day, Abe Ruef was On the
stand IN rebuttal. Before he had opened
bis lip to answer the question:
:4Did you pay half Of this extortion
money to Echmitzip
The defense launched an objection
whose determination was still in doubt
doubt when the overnight adjournment
was taken three quarters Of an hour
later. Former Judge Campbell, senior
counsel for the defense called Sehmitz
to testify in his own behalf as the sec
ond witness Of the day. The Mayor
occupied the chair for more than an
hour, during 4 considerable portion Of
which time the opposing counsel were
wrangling over the right Of the prose-
cution to ask the Mayor whether Ruef
divided with him any Of the fees al
legged to have been paid Ruef for the
protection Of the French restaurant
keepers. The Mayor himself exhibited
an eagerness to waive the technicalities
Of the law and answer squarely the
issue. The defense whose day this was.
for the introduction Of evidence, called
in all only four witnesses and the
direct examination of them went to the
establishment Of two points only. First,
to overthrow the testimony Of former
Police Commissioner Reagan, that the
Mayor had attempted to use him as a
holdup tool to force the French restaur-
ant keepers to "Come through with
protection money Second, to prove that
the holding up Of the French restaurant
licenses was the result Of labor union
plot to ruin their business because some
II them refused to yield complete obed-
ence to the mandates Of unionism.
