SION FROM MAYOR scHMITz
OF SAN FRANCISCO
SENSATIONAL STORIES OF CORRUPTION
IMPOSSIBLE TO VERIFY FLOOD
OF RuMoRs CIRCULATING IN
COAST METROPOLIS.

San Francisco. March 21.-All kinds
of rumors are in circulation about al
legged confessions by city osIcials or
graft, of moves and counter moves by
the prosecution and defense, but veri-
fication Is In almost every instance
impossible. Among the reports In
circulation are that negotiations have
been opened by the accused men with
D. nj. Delmas, the attorney who Is de-
Tending Harry X. Thaw in New York.
and that Mayor Schmitz has been or
will be confronted with the written
confessions Of the supervisors and
has been promised immunity If he will
add his confession to theirs. This, IT
Is said, will be done by the prosecu-
tion In order to reach the bribe givers.
In spite of the fact that the news
papers publish what purport to be
the alleged confessions of members of
the board of supervisors before the
grand jury Of accepting btibes from
agents of public service corporations
the supervisors who have been inter
viewed without exception persist In
emphatic denials of having disclosed
anything sensational and declare that
there has been no bribery In connec-
ton with the granting Of franchises
to the United Railroads, the Home
Telephone company and the Gas and
Electric company.
Similar denials are made by Henry
T. Scott, president Of the Pacific
States Telephone and Telegraph com
pany; Thornwall Mallaly, assistant TO

United Railroads; j. A. Britton. pres
ident of the Gas company, and Wiltur

REPORT OFFICIALLY DENIED
PRESIDENT zELAYA HAS NOT hU
THoRlzED THE LooTiNG OF
CAPTURED TOWNS.

Washington, March 21.-Great sur
lomatic circles by the announcement
In press dispatches that Nicaraguan
troops had been promised the right to
loot the first Honduran or Salvadorean
city they may capture. Such an
nouncement to soldiers by government
authorities Is In direct violation of
the general trend of the rules Of war
for the last century.
The navy department has received
a dispatch announcing that the gun
boat Marietta has arrived at Puerto
Cortez, Honduras. This Is one of the
points on the north coast of Honduras
which is threatened by Nicaraguap
and Honduran revolutionists.
Mr.. Corea. the Nicaraguan minister,
called on Secretary Root and entered
an emphatic denial Of reports from
Central America to the effect that
President Zelaya Of Nicaragua has Of,
fered his soldiers the privilege OF loot
ing the first Salvadorean or Honduran
town they capture. Mr.. Corea made
this denial on the authority of dis
patch he received from Mr.. Gamez,
the Nicaraguan minister for foreign
affairs The dispatch stated that the
reports Of President Zelaya's proffer
of looting are fabrications which were
made up in Salvador and originally
published In semi-official daily paper
in that country. AS the proof OF the
falsity Of the report Mr.. Gamez says
that Nicaragua has been In control OF
San Marcos, Corpus, Yuscaran, Dauli
and Mariatta and there was no com
plant Of looting in those towns previ
GUS to the report which the minister
