Francisco District Court.
IN Assoclnted Pressl

SAN FANCISCO. CAL. March o
That former Mayor Eugene +.
schmitz was unlawfully convicted OF
extortion and sentenced TO 1--WE years
in prison, was reaffirmed today when
the state Supreme Couit unanimously
refused TO grant rehearing OF the
case before the district Court of Ap-
peals, which several weeks ago re-
sersed the Judgment and ordered the
discharge OF the defendent on the
ground that under the law no onense
mad been committed.
The Court of Appeals held in brief
mat even though Schmitz had ac-
cepted money from French restau-
ran,turs. he had not obtained II by
threats. and was therefore not guilty
OF extortion under the statutes.
Schmit2 hhs been held in jail ever
since his conviction as there are sew
crat other indictments standing
against MIN Abraham Reuh, who
was Jointly INFLICTED with schmitz.
pleaded guilty and his sentence is
now pending.
Today's decision OF The Supreme
Court also applies to him.
1t is believed that Schmitz will i'm
mediatcly apply for release from the
county jail on bail and Reuf may do
Likewise. The prosecution proposes
al once to bring TO trial some of the
many other charges preferred against
them.

GOOD FOR THE RICH.
BUT NOT FOR ALE
Declaring Aldrich Bill Wrong and
Vicious, Senator Clay Argues
Against It.

WASHINGTON. February 1.-THE
Senate to-day gave attention to
speech on the Aldrich currency bill
by Senator Clay. of Georgia. Mr.. Clay'.;;
declarations in favor of the issuance
of paper money by the government
provoked controversy between him
and Republican Senator'S. Senator's
Lodge and Teller both gave their views
briefly on the policy OF issuing paper
money by the government. f
Senator Clay reviewed the banking
system of the country, and carefully
analysed the plan under consideration
for the issuing of emergency cur
rency.
He declared the Aldrich bill was
wrong and vicious, and would give ITO
relief to the South and West. He con-
tended that 1t simply enlarged tho
powers OF the national banks, and that
Congress was relinquishing the sover-,
eign right to issue and circulate money.
which 1t ought never to do. The plan
Of the minority in the Senate for the
government to issue $500.000.0uo OF
paying the expenses OF the govern.
ment that they might find their way
into all the channels of trade was
advocated by him.
Mr.. Clay said there are now In CIR
culation s350,O00,000 of Treasury notes,
not costing the government anything
and performing all the functions OF
money, and that this amount could be
easily increased $50o.000.000 without In
any way disturbing our finances.
