SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. l2,--The
wheels OF the graft prosecution will
grind in nearly every department Of
justice today. The Supreme Court will
listen to arguments on the applications
OF the various indicted ones, praying for
writs of prohibition restraining the Su-
perior court from trying their cases.
In Judge Lawlars department of the
Superior court the new trial of Louis
Glass and Vice president and General
manager Of the Pacific States Transport
Company will begin. The men indicted
in the Parkside deal will be called upon
to make their pleas before Superior
Judge Dunno.
The grand jury will listen to further
evidence of bribery and act upon the ac.
cusation filed with the district attorneys
office by Michael Casey, chairman on the
committee of election frauds, charging
that the Schmitz- Benham. Berger crowd
of the labor party is engaged in "crimi
nal colonizing," In addition to listen
ing to argument on the appropriations
for writs of prohibition.
The Supreme Court will probably hear
argument on the mayoralty question.

SEATTLE CONSERVATIVE.
Operators Will Take No Action Until
Advised By President Small.

SEATTLE Aug. l2.-Seattle Local of
the Commercial Telegraphers Union of
America took a conservative course at
its meeting yesterday on the strike stu
alton, deciding not to strike until it
shall have orders to do So from Presi-
dent Small of the Central body.
This action was taken at the labor
temple after the local had voted to re-
fuse to handle all unfair messages COM
ing to Seattle which would include tele-
grams originating in offices in which
members of the union have gone on
strike. This vote was reconsidered
and it was decided to await instructions
from the International president and his
message was sent to President Small:
Local No. 40 at special meeting vo-
ted to submit themselves to your leader
ship and abide by your instructions abb
solutely. Please instruct us what ac-
tion you desire taken by us"

NEW YORK, Aug. l2-Kissak Jela-

Armenian rug merchant, on July 22, is
about to be made. Jelalian, so the Ar

whom Bedros Khachadorian, Tavshan-
jams slayer, lodged while in this city
awaiting a favorable opportunity to
fire the fatal shot, Jelalian is also al
legged by the police to be the man who
guided the assassin to union square, re-
hearsed him in his act and pointed out
to him the man marked for a victim.
Jelalian's arrest, it is expected, will
be followed by several more in this city,
and Boston. Detectives have the sus-

VICTORY FOR DEFENSE.
Superior Courts Ruling In Connection
With Graft Trial-Question the
Legality Of jury.

SAN FRANCISCO, August l2.-The
supreme court shortly before 5 o'clock
tonight issued orders deciding Superior
Judges Lawler, Cook and Dunno to show
cause before the higher court en- banc at
10 O'Clock a. m. Monday. August 10,
why they should not issue permanent
writs OF prohibition restraining them
from proceeding with the trial Of Eugene
Sehmitz. indicted for participation in
streetcar violence, Assistant Councilman
William NJ Abbott of the United Rail.
roads indicted on a charge OF bribing
Supervisors Theo. V. Halsey and Louis
Glass Of Pacific Telegraph & Telephone
Company and w. A. Brobeck of the Park
Side Transit Company similarly in
licted.
Issuance Of these orders following
long consultation Of the Chief Justice
and Associated Justices in chambers
during the afternoon Is esteemed q great
victory for the joint defense in the
bribery graft prosecution as it means
that the supreme court sees in the var
ious grounds on the validity of the
Oliver Grand Jury indictments is attack
ed enough merit to call for arguments
from the contending sides before the
higher courts.
The chief grounds on which the writ
of prohibition were prayed for were
that the Oliver Grand Jury is an illegal
body, having ceased to exist when the
new grand jury list for the present year
was drawn and certified by the county
clerk. Hence the indictments by it are
null and void, and cannot be tried in
any court. 1t is the response of the
prosecution that grand jury continues
in power until formally discharged by
judge of the superior court who called it
into being
Answering question Chief Justice
Beatty made the following explanatory
statement to the Associated Press:
"The issuance of these orders to snow
cause does not stay proceedings in the
superior court. Orders to show cause
were issued instead Of alternative writs
to avoid interference with proceedings in
the lower court in the interim"

SAN FRANCISCO, August 1.-THE
telegraph operators in the employ of the
Associated Press throughout the entire
country went on strike this evening be.
cause General Manager Stone was un-
able to comply Immediately with their
demand for a radical increase in wages.
Mr. Stone sent message to the oper-
ators explaining that compliance with
their demand would mean an increase
of over 100000 annually in the A. P.
He stated that it was mutual organi-
zation conducted without profit and that
there was no fund to meet such an ex-
traordinary expenditure. The only way
that an increase such as was demanded
could be granted was BY an increase in
the assessment of the members. 1t was
manifestly impossible to do this within
the "a hours allotted by the telegraph
ers' organization. |,
A meeting of the board Of directors
would have to be called, and as the
board is composed of Is men living in
all parts of the country it is impossible
10 get them together. Mr.. Stone offered
to meet committee of Associated Press
employees and make such recommended
tion as might be agreed upon. This was
not satisfactory to the operators and
then Mr.. Stone agreed to call tele-
graphic meeting of the directors and the
associated operators and wait till Tues
day night. This request was refused and
the operators by small majority de-
cided to strike Immediately and at $3.50
the men left their keys and the entire
