RUEF'S TRIAL
 NEARLY DONE
The Prosecution Will Close
 Its Case Today
It is Uncertain Whether the Defense Will Offer Evidence.

San Francisco, May 13.-Assistant District Attorney Heney announced in court at the Ruef trial tonight that the prosecution would close its testi- mony tomorrow night. Whether the defense will put on any witnesses is not known.
 Attorneys Ach and Murphy declined tonight to say what determination on the matter they had arrived at.
 Iu is quite probable that the end of taking evidence will come on Friday, however, and an adjournment to Mon day will then be taken, at which time the arguments will be heard.
 Following the testimony of Ex-Su- pervisor Chas. BoXtOn this afternoon, Ex-Supervisor Max Memlock was put on the stand tonight. The prosecution tried by cross examination to connect Ruef directly with the bribery of the former supervisors in the Parkside franchise matter and it also brought up the telephone franchise matter, in an attempt to connect the former boss with the payment of 5000 as bribes.
 Both BOxton and Memlock refused to be drawn into direct admissions in regard to Ruefs connection with the handling of the money, although they recognized Ex-Supervisor Gallagher as Ruef's mouthpiece in those matters.

AMENDING THE RATE LAW.

Washington, May. 13.-As unfinished business of the senate the joint reso- lution suspending the penalty feature of the commodity clause of the pres ent interstate commerce law, was talk en up today and Senator Aiken spoke in favor of adoption.
 FavOring the amendment requiring railroads to charge no more for the short haul than for the long haul over the same line regardless of competi- tive water transportation, Mir. Hey burn of Idaho declared that even if the provision should not be added to the bill under consideration, he would continue to offer it as an amend ment to other measures wherenever the opportunity should be offered to him. 4 motion to lay Mir. Heyburn's amendment on the table was adopted.
 Mir. FOraker discussed at length the general principle of the commodity clause saying that he was in favor of limiting carriers to transportation but he disapproved of the commodity clause of the rate law today, as he did when it was passed.
 A dash of politics was added to the debate by MT. Bailey, who declared that the rate bill was a democratic measure. Mr. Bailey advocated strengthening the interstate commerce commission in it's power to fix rates on railroads. He declared that it

which was read, the president took the position that the appointment oi a court of inquiry was a matter en- tirely within his discretion and he said he neither could, nor would sur render the right of deciding the mat ter as commander chief. of the army. i..s! sl
 Discussing the charge that Stewart was sent to Fort Grant for punish ment, the president said the punish ment was merely incidental and that the removal of Stewart from direct command was the principal purpose in view. He remarked that it might be necessary to have him tried by court martial and he expressed the opinion that if it should be, his trial would result in severe punishment.
 Again remarking upon Stewart s characteristics, the president said he was unfit to command because he had mistreated the men under his command and quarreled with the civ ilians.

Elaborate Program by Republican House
 Leaders for Its Disposition
A Small Majority is Expected tor the Measure Over the Solid Democratic Side and the Few Insurgent Republicans.

Washington, May 13.-At 4:3O to- morrow afternoon the house will vote on the Vreeland currency bill. The best information indicates that the bill will be passed by a small majority.
 When the house meets tomorrow at 11:SO A. M. a resolution or order, will bea areT Orted from the committee on rules, in substance as follows:
 "That the bill be taken up for con- sideration and passage; that amend ments be limited in number to one; that the general debate proceed until 4:3O p. m., the time being evenly di- vided between the two sides of the house; that at 4:30 the bill be voted on."
 This resolution will be adopted un- der a suspension rules by a roll call vote which is not expected to disclose the real strength of the republican in surgency, for, while several insurgents undoubtedly will vote against the rule in order to give consistency to their past attitude, and their subsequent ac- tions, others of them vote for the rule out of party spirit. and a desire to bring the whole controversy to an issue. It Is to be expected that the democrats will vote solidly in the negative.
 The purpose of the regular republi- can leaders in allowing one amend ment to be offered to the bill. is to give the democrats an opportunity to move the substitution of the Williams currency bill for the Vreeland bill, the idea being that some democrats after casting a complimentary vote for the Williams bill, will, on the second de- ciding vote, support the Vreeland bill.
 But Mir. Williams, the minority leader declared today in an interview that he does not propose to walk into any such trap" He said that if the order from rules committee allows only one amendment to be offered and the choice of the amendment giv- en to the democrats, he will offer not the Williams bill. but the Fowler bill.
 The packers of the Vreeland bill. however, are of no mind to let MT. Williams do this. Their attitude is that they have work enough cut out for tomorrow without counting in a fight on the Fowler bill. Hard feel ing has been already caused by ignOr- ing the reported Fowler bill, and the virtual discharging of the banking and currency committee from any further consideration of currency measures-facts with which the in surgents. though only one their num- Der is positively committed to Fowler bill, have not been slow to take ad- vantage of in developing dissensions within the party ranks. In view of all these circumstances, it may be that an order will be brought in to- morrow by the rules committee to designate definitely the Williams bill
Arizona republican., 1908-05-14

as the one amendment which will be entertained.
 Word got abroad today that some of the insurgents are willing to cast their votes for the Vreeland bill If there should be eliminated from it the gov ernment guaranty clause. A tentative compromise was thereupOn ordered to the effect that those in charge of the bill would consent to the insertion of the words 'or other securities approv- ed by the secretary treasury as an alternative of a guaranty basis for an emergency currency. This pro-offer was rejected.
 As the leaders have issued strict causions for all members to be in their seats tomorrow at noon it is ex- pected that the heaviest vote of the session will be cast on the Vreeland bill.

Senator FOrdker Believes He Gan Secure Relief for the Negroes at the Next
The President Informs the Senate That the Rayner Resolution In the Stewart Case Will Receive No Attention.

Washington, May 13.-Further con- sideration of the Brownsville affair today was postponed by the senate until December 16 next This decf- sion was reached after an extended exchange of views among the sena- tors. MT Foraker, after urging the appointment of an early day for vot- ing on the bill, moved that it be talk en up next December. After a mo- ton by Mir. Culberson of Texas for a vote on the bill next Sunday it was laid on the table, Mir. Foraker's mo- tion was adopted. Mir. Foraker gave out statement saying that he could not have passed the bill now. he thinks he has insured it's passage by puStpCnement.
 Alr. Rayner's resolution directing the president to appoint a court or inquiry to investigate the case of Col. Wm. F. Stewart of the army. now stationed at Fort Grant, Arizona, was referred to the committee on military affairs, with the understand ing that AIr. Rayner shall appear be- fore the committee tomorrow and make a further statement.
 The senate passed the house bill restoring the motto Tn God We Trust" on the coins of the United States. The proposed repeal of the commodity clause of the rate bill. was considered at some length.

THE HOUSE.

Washington, May 13.-One half of a five-hour session of the house to- day was spent in roll calls on the various propositions presented. When the days work was concluded the agricultural and postoffice appropria- tion bills had been sent to the con- ference and the following bills pass ed: Permitting owners of patents in cases where the government has ap- propriated the inventions, to apply to the court of claims for relief; author izing the entry of tea sweepings when intended to be used in the manufac- ture of caffeine; an omnibus bill

THE FLEETS
 FORMATION
Will Undergo a Shifting
 About Tomorrow
At the Same Time Admi- ral Thomas Will Haul Down His Flag.

San Francisco. May 13.-Extensive changes in the formation of the At lantic fleet will take place on Friday, May IS. when Rear Admiral Thomas hauls down his flag as commander in chief and is succeeded by Rear Ad- miral Sperry. Several ships will be shifted to different divisions and Cap tain Rirchard Wainwright and Captain Deaton Schroeder will assume com mand of divisions. Wainwright will be succeeded in the command of the Louisiana by Captain Kossuth Niles and Schroeder will be succeeded on the Virginia by Captain Alexander Sharp.
 The Minnesota will take the place of the Louisiana in the first division, the latter becoming Rear Admiral Emory's flagship of the third division. The Georgia will continue as the flag ship of the second division with Vain right In command of the division. The Nebraska will take the place of the AlTRlDld m LHt StGOilu ulN 4oiOlAs AiA' latter joining the third. The Wiscon- sin will be Captain Schroeder's flag ship, heading the fourth division The Connecticut will remain the flagship of the fleet. When the contemplated changes are effected, the different di- visions will be made up as follows:
 First division, Connecticut, Alag ship, Kansas, Minnesota, Vermont. Second division. Georgia Cflagship), Nebraska, New Jersey. Rhode Island. Third division. Louisiana (flagship), Virginia, Ohio. Missouri. Fourth di- vsion. Wisconsin (flagship), Illinois, Kearsarge, Kentucky.
 Rear Admiral Emory will be in command of the second squardron and also the second squadron com mand has been eliminated as far as administrative purposes are concerned Wainwright and Schroeder who will assume command of divisions, will not receive the rank of Real Admiral until July 19.
 The actual transfer of the flags will occur at 10:3O Friday morning, and be accompanied by the customary ceremonies. On the same day, an hour or two before Admiral Sperry hoists his flag. the Pacific squadron of armored cruisers commanded by Rear Admiral Dayton will get under way to go to sea, enroute to Santa Barbara.
 This will remove any complications that might arise from the ranking of Sperry by Dayton. The Pacific fleet will leave San Francisco for Puget Sound at 10 o'clock next Monday morning. The reason for the changed formation of the fleet is to assure homeogenity by divisions. Under the new arrangements the ships of the first division will be of one class as will those of the second division. Only ships with inturning screws, the Vir- ginia, and the Louisiana, will thus be in the same division. The vessels re- maining in the two divisions will be as near class as it is possible to place them by divisions.
 Practically every officer from the combined fleets attended tonight the annual spring "jinks' of the Bohemian club. which is famed for its clever en- tertainments. It is one of the few functions the officers attended volun- tarily. The "jinks" portrayed Calif ornia's true Bohemia of long ago and its surviving spirit today.
 The day was replete with entertain ment for officers and men.

THE RESOLUTION MODIFIED.

Washington. May 13.-SenRtOr Ray her today called up his joint resolu- tion directing the president to appoint a court of inquiry in the case of Col. Stewart and said that if he could be assured of a report during the pres ent week he would not object to sending it to the committee on mil itary affairs. He said he was willing tC change the resolution making it merely an expression of opinion by the senate and having it a request instead of a demand of the president tC appoint a court Of inquiry.
 Mir Warren, chairman of the mili- tary committee, said: The resolu- tion is not only a reproof to the president but it Is an attack on the discipline of the army and in a way, of the military also" He objected to the establishing of a precedent by which army orders to officers may be held up by appealing to a senator.
