RUFF GETS ANOTHER
FORTNIGHT'S LIBERTY
BoodIer's Counsel Raises New
Argument

Abe Ruef is certain TO enjoy his lib
erty at least until Wednesday, July 90.
On the application of Assistant District
Attorney Fred L. Berry the hearing
on the order requiring the convicted
boodler to show cause why he should
not be committed to the county jail
was yesterday postponed to that date.
Berry said he proposed to file another
petition for an order to, show cause
so as 10 put the matter on firmer
foundation.
Judge Lawlor, before granting the
continuance asked for announced that
he had consulted authorities on the
question of jurisdiction, and had de-
cided that even. though Ruef had been
convicted and had perfected his ap
peal, the right to determine whether or
not he was entitled to bail still re-
mained with the superior court.
The Judge said, however, that he
was not yet prepared to rule on the
point raised by Ruefs attorney,
Thomas B. Dozier, that because one
Judge OF the superior court had ad-
mitted the defendant to bail another
judge had no right to interfere with
that order.

with a friend for a jaunt through h
the country. They took with
them a nice lunch, intending to
enjoy it under the trees at An
telope Springs. Upon arriving
at the ranch, however, they met
Mr.. Croft and family, who are in
charge Of the place. These coed
people would not listen to any
such thing, but insisted that they
eat a square meal for a change.
The meal proved a veritable feast,
winding up with ice cream, but
the best part was the hospitality
of the people, which was indeed
appreciated by the News man.
