Mr. Campbells peroration was as
follows: Years before the frosts of
many winters and suns of numerous
summers had passed over my head 1t
was my experience to see one of the
most awful things that ever happened
in court of Justice. In an adjacent
town in the San Joaquin valley a man
was being tried for his life. 1t was
night when the jury came in. The
lights were dim and the jury was SOL
emn and grim.
1.-THE judge upon the bench looked
down upon the jury and the defendant
stood by the side of his counsel. The
judge asked the foreman if they had
agreed upon verdict and he said they
had. They stood up and pronounced a
verdict of murder in the first degree.
The jury was polled and the tenth man
on that jury, when he was polled, got
up and said:
If your honor please If that YER
dict means death, that is not my ver-
dict. 1 have made a mistake-I have
made a mistake But the polling went
on and the sentence of death was pro-
nOunced against that man. The case
went to the supreme court of this state
and was finally affirmed, and that
man was hung. have recited to you
the case of Uzza F. French, whose
life was taken away from him through
the mistake of a jury.
while life is dear, while life is pre-
cious, liberty and reputation are just
as dear, just as precious to us. Don't,
1 abjure you, in the name of the liv-
ing God, make a mistake which will
cast the odium of a felon upon this
defendant; which will send his wife
and little children out in the world
with the brand of Cain on them so
long as God lets them live-not only
that long, but it. will be handed down
to their children and to their chill
dren's children.
"In the name of justice, gentlemen

This last sentence was taken as an
announcement that Ruef was not to
receive complete immunity.
"Ruef and Schmitz were Siamese
twins and what one did the other
one did. What one thought the other
one thought. Ruef guaranteed pro-
lection to the French restaurants for
two years for $1,000 a year, payable
in advance. He guaranteed that two

French restaurants"
Hepey referred to Ruef's contract
with the French Restaurant associa-
ton as a burglars mask. Ruef drew
up this agreement so that he could
show that the money he extorted from
the French restaurants was paid him
as a fee. 1t was a mask to conceal
a crime.

glared at each other, but Metson kept
quiet and Heney went on with his
argument.
"That was some more Irish," he
said, referring to the spat.

JUDGE DUMMIES CHARGE
TO JURY is CONSIDERED
IMPARTIAL BY BOTH SIDES
Ry Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.-The
reading by Judge Dunno off his
charge to the jury occupied the best
part of an hour.
1t was the sentiment equally ex-
pressed at both ends of the long table
where the opposing lawyers sit that
Judge Dunne's charge was as fair
and as nicely balanced in the scales
of judicial Indifference as a judges
charge may be. He gave his seat
upon the bench to Judge Lennon Of
San Rafael, who had sat with him all
afternoon as guest, and took a chair
at the edge of the altar floor In front
of a small table so that the jury
could the better hear him when he
read. Absolute silence was kept in
the synagogue throughout the deliv-
cry of the somewhat lengthy charge.
Judge Dunno in defining to the jury
what the law means by threat in
connection with extortion, said it
must be such threat as would
naturally cause man of reasonably
firm mind to give up his property in
fear. He cautioned that threat in
extortion need not be verbal or direct.
1t may be unspoken and merely inn
piled, and come fully within the
meaning of the law He charged that
even if Schmitz received part of the
money paid to Ruef by the French
restaurant men, but did not know at
the time of receiving it that it
had been paid under threat, the de-
fendant must be acquitted.
He charged that the mayor had the
right to request Police Commissioner
Reagan to hold up the licenses of the
French restaurant men for any reason
except that of extorting money from
them, and if the jury found that he
was actuated by any motive other
than that 1t must acquit. Another
charge was this: I'm order to con-
vict on circumstantial evidence, it is
not sufficient that all the circum-
stances coincide with each other and
with the guilt of the defendant, but
they must be such as in their en-
tirety to preclude any hypothesis
other than guilt"

Gentlemen, if they think the law
empowers them to grant immunity to
one man for swearing away the life
of another they are grievously mis-
taken, for the law does no such thing.

defendants who fell prey to the per-
Denounces Abe Ruef
1T was their duty before they
closed their case to put Abraham
Ruef on the stand and have him tell
the whole story relating to these
French restaurants and their licenses.
Did they do it? No. They closed
their. case without any pretense Of
bringing Ruef to the stand or of show
ing that this defendant ever received
solitary dollar from Ruef. They
waited until we had called the de-
fendant, and then, finally, in cross
examination, they asked him:
Did you ever receive any money
from Ruef?' and he said, No
"Then it was and not until then
they put Ruef on the stand-for the
one purpose of showing that the de-
fendant had lied. And they did show
that, gentlemen-shoWed 1t by the per-
jured testimony of a man who bought
immunity at the price of his soul.
Abraham Ruef said he paid half of
this restaurant money to Eugene
SchmitZ, and that was false. False
as hell, and you know it. That, gen.

years in the penitentiary hanging
over him. Do you believe him?

JUDGE CAMPBELL
MAKES ELOQUENT PLEA
IN BEHALF OF CLIENT
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.-.Former
Judge ]. G. Campbell began the clos
ing address to the jury on behalf of
the defense in the Schmitz extortion
trial at 1905 o'clock this morning.
In Mr.. Campbel's opening sentences
it was made apparent that he would
ask for acquittal on the plea that the
state had failed to prove the guilt of the
mayor strictly within the phraseology
of the indictment charging that
Schmitz extorted money from the
French restaurants "wilfully unlaw-
fully, corruptly, knowingly and felon-
iously, by the wrongful use of fear,
induced by means of threats to do an
unlawful injury to the property of
the French restaurant men.
Mr.. Campbell cited incident after i'm
cident from the testimony of former
Police Commissioner Reagan to show
that that official was not in any of
his acts controlled by the mayor, that
the holding up of the Frenchmen's
Los Angeles herald., 1907-06-14

licenses was the suggestion of Reagan
to the mayor, not of the mayor tC
Reagan.
Scores Reagan
Reagan he declared, "who the
state tells you was coerced and con-
trolled by this defendant, himself con-
fessed to you when on the stand that
twice after the mayor told him the
French restaurants were bad places
and should be closed up he voted for
the renewal of their lcenses-twice,
gentlemen, twice! And they tell you
he was controlled by the mayor! Why,
Reagan tells you himself he investi-
gated them and found nothing wrong
and so returned and told the mayor.
And when proof positive of i'm
morality was presented to the police
board he promptly and consistently
voted to revoke those licenses; for had
he not by his own admission told the
representatives of the labor union:
You bring me evidence that any re-
sort in San Francisco is sending out
for immoral women and 1 will do all
in my power to take away it's license.
This man controlled by the mayor?"
One of Mr.. Campbell's most strongly
urged arguments was this: "If these
French restaurants were immoral
places they had no right under the law
to exist, and having no right under the
law to exist, there could be no threat
to do them an unlawful injury, and if,
as the impaSsioned prosecution would
have uss believe, Reagan was the agent
of the mayor, there was then no threat
made nor implied which would in any
way, shape, manner or form be a vio-
lation of the law, a violation of this
defendants duty to himself, his city
or you.
Campbell Wakes Eloquent II
Mr.. Campbelrs argument gathered
force, fire and eloquence as it unfold
ed. His arraignment of Ruef and his
of the methods pursued
by the prosecution prior and subse
quent to Ruef's turning states evil
dence were merciless and dramatic
in the extreme. Reviewing that part
of Ruefs testimony in which he said
the prosecution had not specifically
promised him immunity Mr.. Campbell
cried:
1.-The same old story, gentlemen!
Put into the mouth of every reformer
and prosecutor who can win witness
to turn states evidence in every court
in christendom-'they told me If I
would tell the truth they would do
what they could for me'-and who
told him that? William j. Burns.
Who in the name of God Almighty
is William j. Burns to bargain for
evidence and dispense immunity to
the guilty? BY whose authority, L
pray you, does he say to this man,
You go upon the stand and testify
against Eugene e. Schmitz and you
shall go free% BY the authority of
