Mavor SchmItz I'm Cnsiodv.

San Francisco, CAL, June IA. Mayor
Schmitz, found guilty of extortion last
night, spent the night at his home in
the custody of the deputies. He is now
Mayor in name only, as by the law he
cannot exercise the duties of Office.
He must remain in sOdy pending an
appeal to the Supreme Court, which will
be fled at once. His counsel will try
TO have him confined in the city prison
instead OF the county Jail. The prscti-
cal elimination of Schmitz from city
affairs leaves the prosecution in COM
plete control, as the supervisors, being
at the mercy of the District Attorney
Office will do the bidding of the sttor-
neys. Should he Supreme Court affirm
the jury's verdict, the supervisors will
have TO elect a new mayor. This will
probably be ex-Mayor Pheland now in
New York. His election would restore
confidence.
Henri says steps will be taken immed-
lately to remove Chief Of Police DinaD,
and bring about other reforms which
we're impossible while Schmitz was at
large to block them. There are still
pending against Schmiiz indictments for
extortion in connection with telephone,
gas and street matters.
Schmitz's attorney appeared before
Judge Dunno today and asked for the
legal period of ten days of proceedings
before sentence is pronounced.
Judge Dunno today refused to re-
lease Schmilz on bal and ordered him
remsnded TO the custody of the Sheriff
until tomorrow when Schmitz says he will
how sufficient reasons why be should be
released on bail.

as an officer and gentleman was above
reproach, and so still remains;
THAT on the latter date I was dis
missed from the police department upon
charges preferred by questionable peo-
pie, and which charges have never been
admitted by your petitioner, and still
aver the same were false.
"Since that time your petitioner has
earnestly and faithfully struggled to
make his living, and has become sue
ceSSful in business, and has obtained q
standing OF influence and respectable
ty, to which many citizens will testify.
'I have been chosen, among other
things, director of the International
Savings and Loan society of this city,
and have obtained place of good
standing in the various fraternal soci-
cites to which + belong. but notwith-
standing such, my public record is a

BILE submissiveness to your wishes and
dictates, would ask for your favorable
consideration in reinstating me as a
n mber OF the police department-not
for the purpose of serving in the future
as such an officer, but for the purpose
of giving re an opportunity to resign
from such public service with a clear
record, so that may during the bal
ance of my life and residence in this
community have no person throw abuse
against my character by virtue of un-
proven charges which have heretofore
hung over me and which have caused
me much mental worry and anguish.
For this purpose your petitioner

The police commissioners decided to
recommend to the civil service that the
request be granted Kristovich in order
to clear his record, as requested.

HUNTS FORCER
WITH RATHER
AUBLE TRIES BRASS BAND
METHOD
Former Chief Shows How to Go Out
on Bank Robberles With Dig
nifty Becoming to His
Rank

Captain Walter H. Auble in the role
Of forger catcher did not shine to
any great advantage yesterday and
as a result many strange tales were
told at the police station.
Early yesterday afternoon a report
was sent to police headquarters that
a forger had been captured at the
Farmers and Merchants National
bank. Captain Auble at once went to
the scene, but when he arrived there
learned that the forger. who had just
cashed a bogus check for 500, had
escaped.
The former chief of police at once
instituted thorough search for the
man, but without success. Upon his
return to the police station every pos
sibe effort was made by him to keep
the story quiet and suppress the news
OF the affair. When pinned down to
a question Captain Auble insisted that
the president of the bank had
been taken III and that he had been
sent for to accompany him to the
hospital.
Captain Is Dsingenious
The clever captains lack of ingen-
iousness is shown in this statement,
as the president of the bank is L. w.
Hellman, who is at present in San
Francisco. Even If the statement had
been true it would probably have been
the first time on record that Auble
was ever called upon to act either in
the capacity of a surgeon or nurse
maid.
The truth Is that the smooth forger
Is thought to be the same one who
has been passing bogus checks on Los
Angeles merchants for some time and
whom the police are said to have been
bending every effort to capture. He
Is thought to be the same one who
recently passed bogus check signed
with the name of A. Anderson on Roy
A. Baker, manager of the Crawford
Shoe company.
Captain Auble's action in going to
the bank in the patrol wagon has
been criticised. 1t is said that by his
doing so the forger was given an open
tip that his action in passing the
check had been learned and was a
good signal for him to get away.
A large crowd gathered as soon as
the wagon drew up i'm front of the
bank and many rumors of safe blow
ing were heard
When the true situation became
known on the street there We're many
laughs at the captains expense.
Hunting burglars with brass band
must be a popular pastime here" was
the remark of an eastern tourist who
was transactlng some business In the
bank at the time of the thrilling in

Bonar was accused Of consorting with

pended FOR thirty days with loss of pay
and notified that charges would be
pressed against him IL he was seen in
such company again.

Bonar was represented by Attorney

personal affairs into the trial served to
attract crowd which filed all the
space in the board room. All morbidly

Bonar Is only 23 years old, has an old
