MOTION MADE TO
WITHDRAW PLEA
Abraham Ruef Has Discovered
That He Is an limo
cent Man.
PROSECUTORS BAD MEN
TRIED TO INDUCE HIM TO TES-
TIFY FALSELY.

San Francisco, March 7.-Attorneys
Henry Ach and Frank J. Murphy.
counsel for Abraham Ruef today filed
with Superior Judge Frank H Dunno
a written motion for the withdrawal
of Ruef's plea of guilty to the charge
of extortion in the French restaurant
cases and asking permission to sub
stitute the plea of mot guilty" The
grounds upon which the application of
the withdrawal of the plea is made are
as follows:
Induced to Plead Guilty.
That the defendant is not guilty of
the offense charged and was never
guilty thereof; that the plea of guilty
was improperly and inadvisedly ten
dered, entered and received by the
court, inasmuch as at the time of en-
tering the plea the defendant stated in
open court that he was not guilty of
the offense charged; that defendant
was induced to plead guilty by virtue
of an agreement with District AttoT-
ney William H. Langdon, his assist
ant, Francis j. Heney; w. j. Burns,
special agent; Rudolph Spreckels, and
the promise and agreement of Judge
Dunno that the plea would be with
drawn and the defendant not sentenced
thereon.
Voluminous Affidavit.
In support of the motion, the attor-
neys for Ruef filed a voluminous affi-
davit, the most remarkable vet made
by Ruef as regards charges he makes
against the prosecution. The affida-
Wits consists of eighty-nine typewrit-
ten pages and goes into the details of
the immunity history. Among other
allegations. Ruef charges that the pros
ecutiOn used its utmost endeavors to
get him to testify falsely against
Schmitz and other defendants

legations have been confined to local
matters, but in this affidavit ne brings

FORMER Inmate Of Prove.

Miss Jesperson was at one time con-
fined In the state mental hospital at
Provo. She was released last August,
and went to live with her mother in
Roosevelt court.
The girl remembers her adventures
at Granite. She says that when she left
home, she walked southwark. At night,
on the first day of her disappearance,
she crept into buggy in shed on the
Beans farm. There she covered her
self with a 1aprobe and slept until
morning. When she crept from the shed,
she took with her the Jap robe, intend
ing to use 1t as a covering the next
night, as she had made up her mind to
spend several nights in the wilds. On
the second day of her ramble, she
begged for food at the farm houses. re-
ceiving some bread and butter from one
place, some apples and some ounce jel-
ly from another. AS she wandered
through the country, she nibbled the
food given her.
That afternoon, she became lonely
and frightened and FASTENED home,
reaching her mothers home about 4
O'Clock.
AT Granite there was general relief
when il became known that the girl was
safe. The members of the searching
parties were the objects of many good
natured jests, although nobody lost
sight of the fact that their exertions
were inspired by a generous desire to
help an unfortunate who was supposed
to be in distress.

DEMEHTED GIRL
SAFE At HOME
Eva JeSperS0n Talks About Her
PurposeleSs Wandering in
Granite District.
RETURNED A WEEK AGO
POLICE NOTIFIED AND FAILED
TO INFORM sHERiFF's OFFICE.

The mystery OF the demented girl for
whom there was a five-day search at
Granite was cleared yesterday when
Mrs. NJ. Jesperson of 1175 Roosevelt
court, in the block between Ninth and
Tenth South and Third and Fourth East
streets, telephoned to the sheriff's Of
fee that il was her daughter, Eva Jes-
person, 20 years old, who had wandered
out TO Granite and that the girl was at
home.
Mrs. Jesperson stated that the girl
disappeared on Friday, Feb. %, and that
she returned home on the next night.
When Miss Jesperson wandered away,
Mrs Jesperson said, the police were no.
titled and when she got back from her
strange ramble the police were at once
informed of the fact.
Had the police given this information
10 the sheriff's office, there would have
been no need of the long search at
Granite. which for fiVe days occupied
the attention of several deputy sheriIfs
and scores of men and boys living in the
vicinity of Granite. 1t was hard work
for the searchers to tramp through the
snow, especially at night, in the rough
country in which the girl was supposed
20 have been lost, and those who par
ticipated i'm the hunt are disposed to
look upon the affair as sorry joke.
Inquiry at police headquarters yes
terday brought out the fact that there
is no record of the disappearance of
the girl If Mrs. Jesperson telephOned
TO the police, the person who received
her message must have paid no atten-
ton to it. It is not believed that the
police withheld the information from
the sheriff's office so as to enjoy the
spectacle of the wild goose chase of the
past week.

church and its priesthood of many of
the young people and furnish excuses
for the perpetuation of the American
party and its unworthy efforts in our
state"
What Mr. Roberts has said on the
point has been said repeatedly by The
Herald. 1t is palpably true and should,
of itself, be enough to convince SEN
ator Smoot himself that his continuance
in the senate can only be accomplished
at sacrifice greater than any man
should ask of his church or his state.
His retirement from the field would
mean the early and permanent dissolu-
ton OF the American" party; his pres
ence is the only substantial hold that
party has on a large proportion of the
men and women who vote its ticket;
and most of them would gladly aban-
don it, with its record. if they could be
assured by his retirement that party
lines could be re-established on basis
of national party convictions and free
from any suggestion of church in
fluence.
X X X
In conclusion, Mr.. Roberts suggests
a rather startling proposition. namely,
that at the present rate another decade
will see Utah a nom mormon state. In
view of this, he says. cit is for those
who are directing the policy of our
church to consider whether they will
a=
Mormon" 1t does not seem to have
occurred to Mr.. Smoot and his friends
that such a contingency might arise as
an anti-Mormon state administration;
nor. possibly, have they cared much for
such a thing because of its remoteness.
To them the fiesh-pots of today have
been so seductive. the rewards of Of
flee so pleasing and the sense of arbi-
trary power unrestrained so satisfac-
tory. that the future is not worth con-
sidering. After then the deluge; but
until the deuge they will enjoy them
selves. no matter what others may SUI
fer or sacrifice.
Mr.. Roberts would draw a definite
line is ecclesiastical office. at which line
civil office holding would end. He
would have the church request the gen.
eral officers of the church, namely, first
presidency, quorum of the twelve,
council of the seventies and presiding
bishopric. to abstain from seeking po-
itical office or becoming prominently
identified in party politics" Surely,
that is not an unreasonable program,
and it would go far toward settling
permanently a question that is of quite
as much import to the church as to the
state.
1t is encouraging and significant that
a churchman of Mr.. Roberts high
standing, one who has been devoted
follower of its teachings and a stanch
defender of it's people, should have the
courage to point the way to peace in
critical period of the states political
history. He does not suggest any po-
IiticaI animus, he has no unkind word
for any party. even in his consideration
of Shoots personality he has not
lacked in courtesy; yet he has spoken
frankly and wisely, and his words
should hear good fruit.
