to an act that was no offense against

According to the appellate judges
the compelling OF French restaurants
to pay fees" to Abe Ruef was not a
crime, even though Ruef divided the
fees with the Mayor.
After discussing the point the court
reversed the Judgment against Schmita
on the ground that no acts constitut-
Ing crime had been proved against
him. Abe Ruef who pleaded guilty
to eStorting money from the French
restaurants. is therefore equally guilt.

IMPORTANT PuLlNG
ON BASEBALL LAW

Some weeks ago in this city. in
q ball game between the Portland
and Los Angeles teams. there were
runners on first and third base, and
two men were out. The man on first
base started TO steal to second. and
was finally run down and touched
out, but not before the man at third
base had scored The run was rung
up by the sCOrekeeper. but the on
posing players yelled out their deri-
sion, and the score boy refused to
count the run on the scoreboard.
The winning team, which made
the extra" run. did not need IL,
but II was legal one just the same.
For the information of the players
and fans alike, the rule covering the
point is as follows
Rule j9-One run shall be scored
every time base runner, after hav-
ing legally touched the first three
bases. shall legally touch the home
haga before three men arc nut ont (:
provided, however. that IL he reach
home on or during play IN which
the third man be forced out or be
nut out before reaching first base,
Il run shall not count. \ force-out
can he made only when base runner
legally loses the right to the base he
occupies and is thereby Obliged to
advance as the result Of n fair hit
ball not caught on the ly.'
Thus 1t will be seen that II n run
ner scores from third base before a
man Is touched out. who Is being run
down between the bases. for the third
out, the run counts. The run. OF
course. would not count where the
third out Ii made In u double play
