the incident of the mutiny closed, this
request was not forwarded. The !nfor-

RUFF WILL BE Held
ON BRIBERY CHARGE
Police Court Case Submitted on
Sixty-eighth Day of
Hearing
Newburgh's Closing Argument
Is Vilifiation of the
Prosecution


The preliminary police court hearing
of the charge against Abe Ruef of
bribing former Supervisor j. j. Furey
to vote in favor of the Parkside fran
chise was finally concluded in Judge
Cabaniss' court yesterday in the sixty
eighth day of its progress 1t will be
many day before a record of dalliance
and delay will be made -equaling that
set in the proceedings by Ruefs attor-
ney.
At 2 o'clock this afternoon Judge
Cabaniss will hold Ruef to the superior
court for trial. Under the evidence
brought out, the magistrate could do
little else than hold him, for the wit
nesses, not only of the prosecution, but
for the defense. have corroborated, step
by step, the general story told by
James l.. Gallagher. connecting Ruef
beyond all doubt with the bribing of
Supervisor Furey.
Lawyer Newburgh was charged with
the lie direct by District Attorney Louis
Ward, when the former waxed warm
in denunciation of the entire prosecu
tion. Speaking of his inability to pro-
duce former Supervisor James Kelly.
who is in Nevada, Newburgh asked
the court for an order compelling the
district attorney to get the witness
undoubtedly, said New wburgh, ..the
Niioei ~ dbtolHSy rOIHce ana It's gum
shoe brigade knows all about Kelly
and is keeping him away for a pur-
pose
That's falsehood," said Ward.
Sharply Newburgh appeared to think
so himself, for he didn't try to show
otherwise. The court raped both law
yers to order
Newburgh in an extended argument
contended with Judge Cabaniss that the
Whole case against his client narrowed
down to one point-"Did Ruef tell Cal
iagher in October, 1905, or thereabouts
that he wanted him to see the super
vlsors and offer them $1,000 each for
tneir votes on Parkside?''
NeWburgh contended that outside of
Galiagher's own testimony, no evidence
had been given showing this to have
been the case, The main part of his
argument, however, was taken UP with
vllifications of the district attorneys
office and motives.
Ward, in answer, showed clearly
that, as each witness had gone on the
stand, there was confederation of those
preceding. 1T must be borne in mind
also, said he, that the theory of the
defense in this case, that the super
yisors banded together to get money
from Ruef. is practically an admission
that Ruef did pay money through CAL
lagher to Furey.
Judge Cabaniss took his decision un
der advisement until 2 o'clock this aft
ernoon.

ingalls, is spending a vacation at Hot

and, really, that is not the way that
one great railroadman should speak
of another railroadman."
Il don't think it at all kind of In
gals to say that Hartman was trying
to be funny" remarked another eau
tiously. He need not try. ANY one
would be only too happy to laugh at
a Hartman joke, even though he were
a Scotchman."
1t appears that ingalls,, who is chair
man of the directorate of the Cleve-
land, Cincinnati, Chicago and st. Louis,
was asked by reporter what he
thought of Harriman's interview re-
garding the general situation and es-
pecially with regard to Harriman's
statement that as he was growing older
he was growing mellower.
ingalls, is reported as having re-
piled:
Il don't see much in that. 1t looks
to me as though Hartman was trying
to be funny to avoid being interviewed.
He is not a funny man He is a.
shrewd grasping little man, who tells
a good story badly.
Il think he was attempting humor
to avoid saying anything important
OF course. we all know that Hartman
did not buy the Erie or the Wheeling
with the idea of making a profit di-
rectly.
Il don't. know anything about this
deal for the Gould road. Their con-
troll ought to be big help to him, If
it didn't cost him anything. He has
great plans for his Union Pacific, but
he has grim competitor to the north.''
1t can be well imagined what conster-
nation this interview created.

new job observed a well known rail-
roadman. cor else he had better find a
new kind of hot springs. Hot Springs.
Ark, will be unhealthy for him if he
does not change residence"
Harrimans opinion of ingalls, is
wanting.
He will be a brave man. indeed, who
will ask the wizard of Wall street what
he thinks of the chairman of the di-
rectorate of the Big Four.
Perhaps Hartman will return the
same answer as he did to some one
who asked him question he did not
like.
Young man. he said, you have
been reading the yellow journals
