In effect, the court held that
Schmitz was not given fair and i'm
partial trial The decision will have
the effect of invalidating the other
four indictments charging Schmitz,
as well as Ruef, with extortion, and
renders void the plea of guilty made
by Ruef BY this reversal it is fear
ed that the prosecution has lost it's
hold upon Ruef. and it was predict
ed tonight that the former political
boss would now refuse all overtures
for immunity, wholly or in part, to
testify in the bribery graft cases and
fight every Indictment against him.
Although the court ordered that
Schmitz be discharged from custody
on the extortion indictments, neith-
er Schmitz nor Ruef can take advan-
tage of the reversal for sixty days
Even then, there is little likelihood
that either will be able to get the
enormous bail required for their re-
lease. There are still pending against
Ruef, 1875 indictments, charging
bribery, on which the total bail is
$1,170,00O. Schultz would have to
get bonds for $450,0OO on forty in
dictments that remain against him.

four hours, in the district attorney S

Special Agent William Burns, Dis
trict Attorney Langdon, and several
of his assistants, the announcement
was made that no statement would
be given out, and that the district
attorneys office would adopt a policy
of silence regarding its future plans.
"The prosecution has not been en-
barrassed in the slightest by this de-
cision," said Heney. There are
plenty of other indictments against
both Schmitz and Ruef"
Langdon stated that the prosecu-
tion of the bribery craft cases would
be vigorously renewed and pressed to
a conclusion as rapidly as possible.
Judge Dunno, before whom Schmitz
was convicted and Ruef pleaded gull
ty, said. "It is to be regretted that
the' hearing of this appeal came up
before a court whose members have
relatives and intimate friends
against whom many indictments were
returned by the Grand Jury that re-
turned these true bills. In view cf
this fact, do not believe that the
court was in proper frame of mind
to give this matter impartial con-
sideration and decide it strictly upon
its merits
Schmitz and Ruef, when seen at
the County Jail, refused to make any
statement, or comment upo1 the de-
cision.

From experiments made by NJ. Rous- sel in Paris it appears that only the crust of bread is submitted to suf- ficiently high temperature to kill all the bacteria which the loaf may con- tain. The inside of the loaf may there fore be contaminated by the microbes from consumptive baker or conveyed in the water, as is the case with ty- phoid fever and cholera. Professor Metchnikoff was asked his opinion whether bread could not be source of danger. and his answer was as fol lows: T don't think so. The tempera- ture to which the inside of loaf is submitted generally 40 de- grees r. At this temperature many microbes are killed-those of tubercu- losis, for instance-but there are much hardier germs, such as those of anthrax, the germs of which are only killed at over 224 degrees F. But anthrax is rare, and it is hardly likely that a bak- CT attacked by this terrible malady would continue to work once the dis ease had declared itself" Professor Metchnikoff advises, however, that only bread which Is well baked, and therefore not crumbly, should be eaten.
