Former Political Dictator Will Ask
That His Trial Be Transferred

County
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-Some-
thing in the nature of a new sensa-
ton will be sprung in the Ruef-Park-
side bribery trial tomorrow morning
when Attorney Ach, for Ruef, will
make a motion for a change of venue
and in support of the motion will pre-
sent voluminous testimony to prove,
if possible. that Ruef cannot secure
a fair and impartial trial in San Fran
cisco.
Ruef's counsel will ask that the
present proceedings be discontinued,
and that the case be transferred to
the superior court of some adjacent
county. where an unprejudiced judge
and jury may be found. He Will offer
a mass of evidence in his attempt to
prove to Judge Dooling that the news
papers, the members of the graft prose-
cution, the judge trying the case, and
even the preachers in the pulpits of
San Francisco, are prejudiced against
Ruef, and that there has been created
great public sentiment against him.
The new jurors were passed tempo
rarily today and one more is under
examination. making ten now in the
jury box, and one to go in tomorrow
morning, unless the motion for a
change of venue should be granted.
The new jurymen are L. A. Blan-
chard, a saloonkeeper, and Thomas
Connell, an engineer. The juror under
examination is P. Garland, con-

PRAIRIE STATE DEMOCRATS

JOHNSON CONTINGENT HAS LIT

Predicted Contest Originating in Cook
County Is Considered in
the Light of
Joke
By Associated Press.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April pa
probable noise in favor of Johnson anC
certain vote for Bryan instructions
are the developments looked for in to-
morrow's Democratic state convention
1t is generally believed that wher
JohnSon's name Is mentioned there will
he demonstration of approval, but il
is not expected that any practical use
will be made of the enthusiasm, no
matter how great or small 1t may
prove to be.
From present indications the conven-
ton will certainly instruct for Bryan
and the party leaders are a unit in de-
claring this action will be taken. Roger
G. Sullivan of Chicago, who will practi-
cally dictate the work of the conven-
ton, arrived today and declared that
there is no possibility of any anti
Bryan Instructions
The predicted contest from Cook
county to be headed by Robert e.
Burke and Carter H. Harrison is gen.
orally regarded as a joke. None of the
contesting delegates has so far put in
an appearance and although Burke is
said to have arrived in Springfield early
today, he failed to appear this morning
hotel, and as far as could be learned
he was the only member of the contest
ing delegation from Chicago who had
arrived. Harrison is not expected.
Much opposition has developed to the
adoption oS a platform at the present
convention. This is due to the wording
of the planks which the unied societies
or liquor interests are urging for adopt
ion. One Cf these censures the church
for interfering with political matters
and demands in effect that clergymen
be respectfully advised to attend strictly
to the laws relating to things spiritual
and to leave alone the statutes dealing
with things spirituous. 1t is too early
as yet to confidently predict the fate of
this resolution, but there is a strong
feeling among such of the delegates as
have arrived that resolutions of this
character are better left out of the
platform and many of them believe that
no declaration of principles should be
made at this time.

PRESIDENT GETS
WARSHIPS FUND
ROOSEVELT'S THREAT BRINGS
CONGRESS TO TERMS
READY TO VETO BILL UNLESS
MONEY WAS PROVIDED
Announcement from White House Is
Followed by Hale's Statement
of Proposed Amend
ment
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON April 22.-President
Roosevelt will veto the naval appro-
priation bill should the senate, as did
the house, fail to make any appropria-
ton for the two battleships which are
authorized in the measure.
The prompt announcement of this
fact to senate leaders today is regarded
as responsible for the announcement
by Mr.. Hale that he would propose an
amendment appropriating $7000,000
toward the construction of those ships.
The president stated his position on
this point with unusual emphasis and
suddenness today upon learning that
the bill as passed by the house was
simply paper" provision nor naval
increase. Authorization of the ships
was made, but no money carried to
make the provision effective.
On estimates supplied by the navy
department Senator Hale, chairman of
the senate committee on naval affairs,
has prepared and will introduce an
amendment to the naval appropriation
bill appropriating about $5,000,000 for
the immediate commencement of work
on the two battleships, the torpedo
boats and other vessels provided for in
the bill.
The appropriation for next years
work on these vessels was omitted by
the house on the theory that some time
would be required for the preparation
of rlans for the new vessels, and the
senate committee on naval affairs ac-
cepted the bill as it came from the
house.
Now, however the department has
decided to construct the new vessels on
the plans of those recently built, and
an appropriation to be Immediately
available will be asked.
When consideration of the navy ap-
preparation bill was resumed in the
senate today Mr.. Hale. referring to a
publication in New York paper
which, he said, announced war outside
and inside the senate. explained why
an appropriation for the two new bat
tleships and submarines had not been
placed in the bill either in the house
or the senate.
The house, he said, voted the appro-
priation down on the ground that it
ber, and the senate committee had
none put in the bill because no esti-
mate of the amount that could be ex-
pended had been received from the de-
partment. Since the bill was report
ed, he said, the estimates, amounting
to 1000, 900, had been received, and he
would add that amount as an amend
ment to the bill, thus increasing to
that extent the already heavy appro-
priations for the navy.
