BULLETIN LIBEL CASE
 WHAT COURT WOULD DO
It Intimdtes That the Defendants Are GuiE
 ty as Charged
Though Two of Editor Olders Allegations May Have Been Proved His Prophecy as to the Third Was "a Failure

San Francisco, March 3.-Judge NJ T. Dooling. of San Benito county, sitting for Superior Judge Frank H. Dunne at the trial of R. A. Brothers and Fremont Older of the Bulletin, charged with criminal libel of W. s. Tevis, president of the Bay Cities Water company, dur ing ruling this afternoon said in as many words that he would instruct the jury to bring in verdict of guilty.
 The alleged libel consists of three parts said the court. First. the all legged conspiracy to foist upon the city an inadequate water supply; second, that Abraham Ruef was to receive S1.O00.000 from Tevis; third, that Ruefs testimony before the grand jury was the foundation of,an indictment by the grand jury against Tevis. Should the defense prove the truth of two of these charges it would form no justification in law. if the third was untrue: it would leave t Q libel and I would so instruct the jury. But the jury being the judge of both law and the facts, it is not bound by my instruction"
 This statement by the court was made just before the adjournment was
 
 trict Attorney Cook closed the case with the testimony of Heney. the pros ecutor of the bribery graft cases. by whom he proved that Abraham Ruef did not testify before the grand jury with reference to the Bay Cities water scheme until September 18th. 1907, while the article in the Bulletin was to the effect that Ruef testified before the grand jury that he was to receive $1000,000 from TeVis for putting the water deal through. The testimony. the foundation upon which an indict- ment was returned against Tevis was published Ma. Is.
 Hiram Johnson. counsel for Brothers and Older, then outlined the case of the defense He explained just what constitutes libel and declared that there was no evasion on the part of the two defendants; no attempt to dodge responsibility for the articles He went into the entire history of the water supply question in which he frequently met with vigorous ob- jections of Cook. who argued that the relative merits Of the water companies was not being tried. The court ruled against Cook.
 Johnson said that Tevis met Ruef at the Mutual Savings Bank on Jan 18th and talked with him about the Bay Cities Water Co. scheme. Sev- eral times he went to Ruef's house where the conspiracy between Ruef. owning tine mayor and supervisors. on one hand. and Tevis, the multi-mil- lionaire on the other was matched and agreed to foist upon the city an inadequate and polluted water supply"
 Johnson said the defense would

show that Ruef wrote every resolu- tion and every report to the super visors on the water matter. He would prove that Ruef went to the supervis- ors and said: Boys, there Is more money in this than in any other scheme that has yet come: that in April. immediately after the fire. Ruef introduced Tevis to Supervisor Wilson on Fillmore street and later turning to Wilson said: Hurry up the water scheme; now is the time. There is lots of money in it for all of us
 Johnson declared that Ruef confess ed to w J. Burns 6h May 18th that Burns related the confession to Older and on the following day the Bulletin published the article upon this infor- nation.
 Jennings Phillips. member of tho board of supervisors and chairman of the water committee, was the first witness placed on the stand by the de- fense. His examination by Matthew Sullivan had not progressed far when the assistant district attorney was on his feet protesting strenuously against the line of inquiry. declaring that the defense was starting in at the tail end |, confuse the jury Cook con- tended that the defense must first pro- ceed tO connect Tevis with Ruef and failing to do that he argued that their case fell
 The real sting is in the libel said he, in the allegation that Tevis would be indicted upon the testimony of Ruef. not that Tevis had agreed to pay Ruef s1,000,0O0 or was attempting ito fOist upon the city an inadequate and polluted water supply" Ruef did not testify before the grand jury until four months after the publications Tevis was never indicted and affirma- etive uncontradicted evidence to that effect is before the court.
 Cook argued nearly all afternoon and cited authority upon authority upon the admissibility of evidence in libel cases to prove that the truth of one allega- tiol did not justify the untruth of an- other At one point in the argument Cook exclaimed, God knows that the Oliver grand jury would have indicted Tevis if fthere was any evidence"
 The court ruled against the prose cution as to the admissibility of evi- dence, at the same time making the statement already given. The assist ant district attorney then stated that the water question was fully to be gone into, according to the courts r7ul- ing. He asked for an adjournment until tomorrow morning as he was not well enough posted to cross examine the witnesses in the matter and de- sired to get the help of the Bay Cities Water company's attorneys. This was granted.

HARTMAN IN CONTROL
 OF ILLINOIS GENERAL
Fish No Longer Has a Place in the Directorate of the Company.

Chicago, March 3.-The long strug- gle for the control of the Illinois Cen tral railroad ended. at least tempo rarily. today when the officially ad- journed annual meeting of the stock holders was held and four directors were elected.
 With only formal protests recorded by the interests headed by Stuyvesant Fish. E. H. Hartman and John Jacob Astor were reelected to the board A. q. Hackstaff, serving as director since the death of John c. Yelling was chosen to fill his unexpired term, and Joseph Titus.J assistant to Presi- dent Harahan. was elected to succeed Stuyvesant Fish upon the directorate. Titus. however, is to serve only a few weeks. President Harahan announcing that stOckholder, J. ogden Armour of Chicago. will be chosen on the board as soon as the stock owned by Armour can he transferred to his ac- count on the books, thus making him a stockholder Of record.
 Fish was not present and only a few of his allies were there to watch his interests. The comparatively small representation at the stockholders meeting had one effect disappointing to the administration. With less than two-thirds of the outstanding stock voting, it was found impossible to rat fly legally the action of the board of directors agreeing to purchase two small branch lines, the Kensington x Eastern and the Memphis & State Line railroads.
 Fish said tonight: T refrained from taking any part in the meeting be- cause l deemed it best for those stock holders whose proxies I hold that neither they nor I be in any manner bound by anything done at the meet ing. Those who left their proxies in my hands vested me with the discre- tion to act for them as to their shares, as I might act for myself"

His Appeal is FavOrably Received by Democrats of Tucson.

Tucson. March 3.-(Special)-A po- litical furore was created today by the receipt by prominent democrats of letters from Jesse R. Grant of New York and San Diego, asking for the support of Arizonians in the demo- cratic national convention for the nomination for the presidency. In the letters MT. Grant acknowledges the strong lead of w. J. Bryan, but he is of the opinion that Mir. Bryan will not secure the nomination on the first ballot and in that event in a cOnven- tion requiring a twOtbirds vote to nominate, not at all
 He writes that he has received strong encouragement from democrats in all parts of the country. Allusion is made to the writers long >residence in the west and his familiarity with western conditions and interests.
 The letters were printed in sub stance this evening by the Tucson Citizen, democratic paper. and the Citizen also printed an editorial not unfavorable to MT. Grant. There was a general discussion of the aspirations of MT. Grant by democrats this after noon and evening and all were agreed that he would be a strong candidate. There is a pronounced Bryan senti- ment here as there has always been. but from the expression today the To- cal democrats are about equally divid- ed between hiyn and Grant.
 Mir. Grant k the third son of Gen eral Ulysses s. Grant and for a num- Der of years resided in San Diego, where he has extensive property in- terests. He was for several years a frequent visitor to Arizona. being in terested in mines in the southern part of the territory and northern Sonora.

USUAL RIOT ATTENDS
 A NEW YORK WEDDING
The Marriage of Miss Hartman to Mir. Gerry Stopped Traffic in Broadway.

New York. March 3.-In the pres- eDce of notable assemblage of per sons prominent in social life in New York and many other cities, Miss Cor nelia Hartman, the second daughter of MT. and Mrs. E. H. Hartman, today became the bride of Robert Livingston Gerry, son of Commodore and Mrs. FL bridge T. Gerry of New York
 The ceremony was performed in Grace Episcopal church at Broadway and Tenth streets. one of the busiest sections of the city. There were num- erous automobiles, carriages and guests. So great was the throng of sightseers that traffic on Broadway and adjacent cross streets was prac- tically at a standstill for over half an hour. When the ceremony was over hundreds of women in their eagerness to catch a glimpse of the wedding party they forced their way past the lines of the police and disregarded the menance of the powerful motor cars which slowly made their way along.
 The interior of the beautiful church was superbly decorated with a mass of palms and other greens and cut flowers in profusion. a distinctive fea- ture of the scheme being the number of beautiful floral arches thrown across across the center aisle up which the wedding party passed.

A LOST ART FOUND.

A chemical discovery, or rather re-
discovery of what was an old Roman
secret known to have been used
about 900 years ago, is a liquid prep
aration to prevent iron rust and wall
dampness. When applied to the bot
tom plates of ships it is said to
prevent oxidation, animal or veget-
able marine parasites and growths,
and, besides preserving the life of
the iron plates, will also add to the
speed of liners and warships. When
the inside of a ship is coated over
with this liquid it stops the weep
ing" of the inner skins of the iron
sides, which, as shippers so well
know, is 80 often the cause Of much
damage to ships cargoes.

Then he quotes the report of the

then came back to life and told what

Possibly" says DR.. Moller, "the

then a logical, sensible report may
be received in this vale of tears from
