COURT FREES scHMITz.
Trial Court Reversed by Court Of
Appeals.


San Francisco.-"The Judgment and
order are reversed and the trial court
is directed to sustain the demurrer f.,
the indictment and discharge the dc
PENDANT as to such Indictment"
This was the decision handed down
by the district court of appeals Re
yersing the judgment of the trial court
in the case of former Mayor Eugene
h. Schmitz, sentenced to five years in
san Quentin on the charge of holding
up French restaurants in the matte r
OF liquor licenses, and setting aside
the indictment on which his conviction
was had The trial was made notable
by the appearance OF Abraham Ruef.
the political dictator, who controlled
the municipal administration and prac
tically placed SchmItz in office. as q
witness against the mayor, testifying
that he had paid to him as his share
$500 of the $4,000 received by Ruef
from the French restaurants in order
that Schmitz would permit the board
OF police commissioners to issue liquor
licenses to them. Ruef had, previous
to THIS, dramatically pleaded guilty to
the same charge, at the same time
making the enigmatical statement that
he was innocent.
On the ground that the indictment
did not show that a public offense was
committed because it did nos allege
any threat to injure property, the
court holding that liquor license was
not property, but mere permission;
that a threat to prevent the obtaining
| OF liquor license by one who had no
authority in the premises did not con
sutute threat against property; and
| because of numerous errors in the rul-
ing OF the trial judge-Superior Judge
| Frank II, Dunne-the appellate court
! held that the indictment was invalid
and the conviction null and void. In
effect, the court held that Schmitz was
not given a fair and impartial trial.
| Added interest was given the Ruef
case by the report that the breach be-
tween Ach and Ruef was again healed
and that Ach will take charge OF
Ruef's legal matters again.
! Attorney Drew for eX-Mayor
Schmitz, has made an appeal for bail
for Schmitz. Drew also asked District
Attorney Cook to have Schmitz's bail
reduced from $355,OOO to all even
100000
Ruef, it is said will have to stand
trial on all his indictments. He re-
fused to testify for the prosecution
unless the prosecution granted him
full immunity. This was refused.
Without Ruef the prosecution will
have difficulty in connecting up many
Of the defendants with the alleged
! crimes.

CAN THEY

Word was received yesterday by
Christopher Diehl, secretary of the
Masonic grand lodge of Utah, that
Matthew McB. Thompson, who has
been comforting spurious Masonic de-
gIecs upon the foreigners of several
of the coal camps throughout the
state upon payment of $50, has ar
rived in Salt Lake.
Thompson was at one time mem
ber of the King Solomon lodge No.
IL, of Montpelier, Ida, but disap-
pearcd for a number of years. Some
time ago he appeared at Saratoga,
Wyo., declaring that he had just re-
turned from trip abroad and that
he was fully authorized to confer any
Masonic degree up to the 32nd.
Since that time he has Travelled
through the coal camps of Utah and
Colorado, where he has made victims
of the ignorant foreigners who de-
sired to become affiliated with the Ma
sonic order.
An effort will be made by the grand
lodges of Utah, Wyoming and Colora-
do to secure the passage of laws
which will make il felony for any
one to use or display the emblem of
any order for purposes of misrepre-
sentation. Saturdays Salt Lake

Almost three score and ten years

apostle of song did not lay down his
pen until the day of his death. When
his voice wavered from age and
weakness, his mind, strong in the
truth, inspired new gospel hymns
that make his name immortal. The
symphony of his earthly career is
ended, but its influence will increase
with every passing year. AS the peb-
BILE dropped into the brook forms the

the songs of praise of Ira d. Sankey
have encompassed all Christendom in
their benign influence. From Green
