WAR IS DECLARED
HoStlitieS Between Governor
and Legislature Broke
Rather Suddenly.
MANY MOVES FIRST DAY
Adjournment Saturday Agreed Upon
Will Leave Administrators
Bills on Shelf.

Springfield. May Illinois general
assembly's declaration of war on the
governor yesterday came so suddenly
that its political possibilities were not
generally appreciated until at night.
That the warfare thus opened means
fierce opposition to Deneen's renOmin-
alton from now on was generally adj
mitted. There is to be no quarter UNI
less the governor surTenderS.
Developments of Day.
Here are the days developments in
the legislators war on the governor:
Deneen's protest against the heavy
cut in the appropriations for the state
charitable institutions was derided by
the senate, where the governor was
able to muster only three supporters
against the passage of the omnibus
bill.
The governors state board of cnar-
tiles was scored with a vigor that is
expected to result in the resignation of
DR.. Frank Billings, Emil G. Hirsch, and
Mrs. Lathrop
Insult was added to injury by the
failure of Chairman Henson TO appear
at meeting of the senate committee
on labor for highly important hearing
on the hazardous machinery bill. which
is backed by Governor Deneen, State
Factory Inspector Davies, and organ
lied labor, and opposed by the Illinois
Manufacturers association. Conse
quently this meeting could not be held
and the last hope for legislative actor
went glimmering.
Loses Control of Commission.
Governor Deneen's control over the
commission that will select and pur
chase the 100000 site for the new 10
! liet penitentiary was stripped from
him in the house committee on appro

"Who Are Not Prejudced

SAN FRANCISCO, April "A legal
battle that promises to last for weeks
and Is expected to be in a measure
pivotal on all the criminal proceedings
growing out of the grand jury's bribery
graft investigation, was begun in
earnest today when Abraham Ruef, San
Francisco's indicted political boss, was
placed on trial in Judge Dunne's de-
partment of the superior court on the
charge of extorting large sums of
money from local French restaura-
teurs under threat that unless paid he
and Mayor Schmitz would prevent the
of their liquor licenses by the
police commission.
Only very brief session of court was
held in the morning, adjournment be-
ing taken until o'clock owing to the
absence of a talesman for whom a
bench warrant was issued. When court
adjourned at the conclusion of the aft
ernoon session one taleSman had been
examined and passed without challenge
by both sides and a second was under
examination by the defense. The first
is j. r. Bradstreet, a weather strip
manufacturer of 1859 Eddy street; the
second, Angelo r. Duperu, real estate
man living at 2152 Pine street.
Hiram w. Johnson, as special coun-
sci for the prosecution, and Henry Ach
of counsel for Ruef, conducted the ex-
animation of taleSmen, and the ques-
tions put by them indicated to a de-
gree how searching is to be the scru-
tiny that must be withstood by each
of the twelve men who will weigh the
guilt or innocence of Ruef.
Aside from the stereotyped queries
commonly put to Jurors to determine
their qualification, these are some of
the more indicative questions which the
defense demanded direct answers:

FOR COTTON
WRECK
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
COTTON, April 1--WE, the coroner's
jury, find that e. F. Walthers came to
his death from crushing injuries re-
ceived in the train wreck on the South
ern Pacific road March 2S, at Cotton.
1--WE, the coroner's jury, further find
that L. r. Afford and J. G. Gruss-
meyer are equally guilty of criminal
negligence of their duties and are large
ly to blame for the wreck that occurred
in the Southern Pacific yards at Col
ton March 2S, 1907.
1--WE further exonerate w. Wharm,
engineer. and w. j. Morrison, fireman
and w. K. Davis of the switching
crew in the Southern Pacific wreck that
occurred in Cotton March 2S. 1907.
I'VE further find Clarence Warming
ton is guilty of negligence in running
train No. at too great a speed in the
side yard limits at Cotton March 2S,
1907.
1--WE exonerate V. Clapp fireman of
No. 9, of all blame in the wreck at
Cotton March 49, 1907
we censure the Southern Pacific
Railroad company for hauling passen-
gers in old, frail and weakly construct
ed cars, as said cars in wreck seem
to be.
1--WE also recommend the painting of
all danger signals and the same to be
kept in good condition for the purpose
OF helping railroad employees to see the
signals"
Several Are Blamed
This verdict, reached this afternoon
by the coroner's jury at San Bernar-
dino, places the blame for the wreck
which occurred in the yards at Cotton
last Thursday.
L. r. Afford and j. G. Grussmeyer
Will have to answer for the lives of
the men who met death in the wreck,
and it is believed that warrants will
be issued at the county seat tonight for
their arrest.
The interstate commerce Commission
is interested in the case and it is be-
lieVed that the commission will in
vestigate the system prevailing in the
Cotton yards with a view to determin-
ing whether it is as lax as 1t appears.
The jury convened at o'clock yes
terday morning and, except for a re-
cess at noon, the session continued
throughout the day. The depositions
of Engineer Warrington and Fireman
Clapp, taken in Los Angeles by Cor
oner Van Vie, were read and the ses-
sion was delayed until the arrival of
the general yardmaster from Los An
geles. He interpreted to the jury the
meaning of the rules governing the
speed of trains within the yard limits
the use of switches and the culpability
of a dispatcher issuing orders report
ing trains running less number Of
hours behind than they actually are.
Did Not See Signals
In their depositions both Warming
ton and Clapp state that they did not
see the stop signal of Switch Foreman
Afford until within ten car lengths of
the point at which the train left the
rails. The engineer says his train was
going thirty-five miles an hour, which
would have given him but seven sec
onds TO attempt to check his train be-
fore the accident occurred.
One point touched upon i'm the trial
was the right which a dispatcher had
to give out an erroneous impression as
TO the actual arriving time of train,
