SAVING BY FIRE SYSTEM
Manson Tells Advantage of Mu-
nicipal Distribution. Plant

"a saving OF between s2,5oo.oo0 and
sS.000,ooO in the installation of dis
tribution system for a municipal gem
eral water supply, such as the Hetch
Hetchy, for example, will be made pos
sible," said City Engineer Manson yes
terday, by the existence of the auxil-
iary fire protection system. The pres
ent Spring Valley system of distribu-
tion aims, however imperfectly, to sup
ply both the general steady flow of
water demanded by industry and popu-
lation and the sudden great demands
occasioned by fire. The latter being
met by the auxiliary system over much
of the city, a municipal distribution
plant in the downtown territory may
be designed without reference to such
peak loads"

RUFF STILL NEEDS
$4,000 BONDS
Judge Murasky Accepts Eight
Sureties for Various Sums,
Making Total of $4,000

After q strenuous day before Superior
Judge Frank Murasky, to whom his
application for q writ OF habeas corpus
was referred by the appellate court,
Abe Ruef last night found himself
$3.50. 600 closer 10 release on bail. Eight
Of his su-eties were examined by the
court and their bonds accepted for a
total OF $4,000.
Two Of these had already been ao-
cepted by Judge Dunno for $4,000.
Judge Dunno also passed two other
bondsmen last Saturday for $4,000,
making g total with those accepted
today OF Sz3O.OO0. Before Ruef can be
released he must still raise an addi-
tional sl.130,000. which his attorney
declared he was confident would be
done today when 10 other sureties will
come up for examination, including
Ruefs father and sister.
The bondsmen qualified by Judge
NTura Slyv Yesterday were:

Then Frank Murphy, Ruef's lawyer,
begged the little Russian to oblige him
by showing the bank books to the
Judge. He refused more vehemently
than ever. NO, no, no!" he repeated to
Murphy's entreaties I WON'T" Judge
Murasky finally accepted Schymansky' s
such Of his property as mad been proved
by the examination.
In this connection an important rul-
ing was made and followed throughout
the rest of the examination in regard
to the use of the assessment rolls in fix
ing the value of real estate sureties.
With the concurrence of District At
torney Langdon, it was agreed that the
assessors valuations should be ac-
cepted for 40 per cent of the worth of
the properties affected. Murphy at
tempted to argue from the appellate
courts ruling that the assessment rolls
should not be considered at all, but was
overruled by the court.
The bonds of Leopold and Joseph
Hirsch, for 100000 each, secured by a
building at Montgomery avenue and
Pacific street worth 100000, were ac-
cepted without objection by Langdon.
So were those of L. B. and David
Hirsch for $4,000 each.
REFUSES NAME of DONOR
When Mrs. Albertine Davis was
brought to the witness stand to qualify
for $4,000 on real estate and "other
property" she said was worth $3.50
however, there was an objection. Mrs.
Davis caused amusement by admitting
that the "other property" consisted of
mining stock. She said she had bought
the real estate with money given her
in gifts, but, asked whether her hus-
band had given her the gifts. she
snapped, Il decline to answer" When
1T was agreed that her husband should
go jointly on her surety she was ac-
cepted for $4,000. Judge Dunno
passed Mrs. Davis for $4,000 on Satur-
day.
Frank Marini. also passed by Judge
Dunno, was accepted for $4,000. Nv
this time 1T was after o'clock and
Judge Murasky stopped the examina-
tions and set 1920 o'clock this mornine
for resuming them. Judge Murasky

cepted to secure Ruefs release on haIl "

Preceding the examination OF the
proffered sureties the question arose
whether the order OF the APPELLATE court
taking Ruefs application for a writ
Of habeas corpus from Judge Dunno
TO Judge Murasky was legally correct
The prosecution argued that unless
Judge Murasky had full legal power to
