suggested by William j. Bryan, was de-
feated. receiving but 254 out of the

ROOSEVELT CALLS
HUGHES TO CONfAB
Former President Denies He
Will Oppose Governors
Direct Primary Policy

NEW YORK, June a2.-Theodore
Roosevelt has. asked Governor Hughes

near future for conference. The
news came out this afternoon in a
brief supplementary statement which

a printed report that he is to oppose
the governors policy of direct prima-
ries.

ceived the governors acceptance and
refused to give any intimation of what
subjects would be discussed. Clifford
Pinchot will be a guest at Sycamore
hill tomorrow night.
Colonel Roosevelt tonight was the
guest of RoBert Collier at a private
dinner at Sherrys. He will remain in

DETWILER TO HEAR
FATE ON July 9.
Arguments Over Validity of Is
Indictments Come to
an End
Absence of Three Names From
True Bills Forms Basis
of Attack

The validity of the Is indictments
charging A. K. Detwiler with bribing
the Doodle supervisors to vote for the
was again debated in Judge Lawlor's
court yesterday. Walter w. Kaufman,
attorney for the defendant, making his
final argument on the motion to set
aside the indictments.
Replying to Assistant District Attor-
ney Berrys argument that the failure
to indorse upon the indictments the
names of Fred Butterfield, ]. j. Furey
and Hugo A. Asher did not invalidate
the bills, for the reason that the testf-
mony of those witnesses before the
grand jury had not been shown to be
material, Kaufman contended that the
court must concede the materiality Of
this evidence.
'F'urey testified that he had been
bribed to vote for the franchise of the
Home telephone company and Butter
fields testimony related to conversa-
tions he had with Ruef in which he
asked for fair consideration for other
applications for franchises" said Kauf-
man. TT is idle and futile to say this
testimony is not material to the issues
in this case, and as matter of fact it
would be admitted on the trial of the
case.
AS to the assistant district at
torney's argument that the testimony
of the three witnesses was not given
upon the particular matter of the
charges against Detweiler, it is suf-
ficient answer to point out that when
Detweiler asked for a transcript Of
the testimony upon which the indict-
ments rest he was furnished with this
testimony
Kaufman argued further that the
California; statute was mandatory that
the names of the grand jury witnesses
must be indorsed on indictments. and
said there was separate statute pro-
viding that the penalty for failure to
do this was the dismissal of the indict-
ments
Berry replied to the arguments of
Kaufman, after which Judge Lawlor
took the matter under submission, an
nouncing that he would render his de-
ciSion July 8.

BRIDE Won in
10 DAYS WOOING
II. S. Renwick Carries Marriage
License With Miss Snyder's
Name On II

Brevity is seldom the soul of ro-
sionally makes new decision in an
old matter. A remarkably brief but
none the less romantic wooing was
that of Miss Florence Snyder, who will
be the bride of Harold S. Renwick.
president of the San Joaquin Valley
railroad.
The acquaintance. according to the
friends of the couple, has been only a
succession of days numbering not more
than seven or ten at most The bride
elect, however, says that the romance
began. or at least admits, that she met
Renwick almost three months ago.
However, the wooing has been swift
and unconventional enough to suit
their friends with a taste for romance.
The engagement has not been an
nouneed in a formal fashion nor after
the conventional program of the every
day affair of the sort. Neither has the
wedding day been announced, nor, ac-
cording to the statement of the bride
elect has the eventful date been set
Renwick secured the marriage license
yesterday, however, and is impatiently
waiting.
II do not know what day the we'd
ding will take place. said Miss Sny-
der yesterday. but it will be soon,
probably next Friday or Saturday"
Since Friday is the day of supersti-
tion that is seldom selected by brides,
the event will doubtless be celebrated
Saturday. The wedding will be at
tended only by the relatives and few
close friends of the couple. An Informal
reception will be held at the home of
the brides mother, Mrs. j. d. Snyder,
in Pine street. The usual accompani-
ments of the home wedding In the
way of elaborate gowns and decora-
tions will be dispensed with on this
occasion The wedding will be as in
formal as the wooing.
The bride is charming girl who has
been educated in this city and has a
host of friends here. Renwick is one
of the prominent railroadmen of the
state and will be overwhelmed with
congratulations upon the news of his
wedding The couple are going away
for a wedding journey, but have not
disclosed the secret of their destina-
ton, if. indeed, they have decided that
part of the wedding program. They
will make their home in Stockton.

vandalism. although they agreed that
some one had suggested that there was
money in the church which they might
obtain They said that they had joined
forces TO push over the organ. which
was so heavy that their combined
strength was barely SUFFICIENT to over

Wantonness they had climbed into the

troller A. B. Nye has instructed Attor-
ney General Webb to take proceedings
against the Nevada and California
power company, situated in Inyo county,
