IRISH SAY il
RULE OR NOTHING
Record Convention Held in
Dublin Turns Down Liberal
Government's Offer.
MEASURE RESENTED AS
INSULT TO IRELAND
Action Kills All Hope of Home
Rule Legislation this Session
of Parliament Cheer Cro
ker for Donation. ' .
By Associated Press.
DUBLIN, May 21. Tho largest, most
representative and harmonious conven
tion ovor assomblod in Ireland today
repudiated tho plan for n limited Irish
council, which is all tho liberul govern
ment had tu offor in fulfillment of its
campaign promises. This action killed
tho hopo of any home rule legislation
by tho present parliament and created a
sorious -split in tho government's forces
which may havo fnrroafching rosults.
Tho tompornment of tho convention
was piain from the beginning. No one
had a word to offor in behalf of the
bill. Homo rule or nothing was the
unanimous sontiir.ont of tho resolution
rejecting tho mcaauro proposed by John
. Redmond and it commanded every
vote. Irish parlinmontnrinus have been
deluged with resolutions from town
councils and all torts of official and
u nodi rial bodies since they arrived in
Dublin, all donouncing tho bill. The
country spoke in unmistnkablo voice
and tho Irish mombors of parliament
cheerfully acquiesced in itn will.
Tlirco Thousand Delegates
Throe- thousand delegates camo to the
convention and soon after tho doors of
Mansion House woro opened it was im
possible to got into the building.
Tho gathoring was quieter than most
Irish political meetings. It lacked tho
spirit of tho old homo rulo gatherings
when Davitt, Dillon, Hcaly and other
fiery orators had tho contor of the
stage. Speeches wore temperate and
thcro was littio denunciation of tho
government.
The keynote of the speeches and rcso--httions
was that tho bill was an insult
to Ireland. Richard Croker was cheered
at the ovoning session when tho chair
man announced that ho contributed
$500 to tho Irish parliamentary funds.
Subsequently resolutions wero adopt
ed calling on the government to fulfill
the pledges of legislation for tho roliof
of evicted tenants as well as for univer
sity and primary education.

HSNT WANT TO
CONTROL 'FRISCO
Rudolph Spreckels Denies the
Story that He Desires to Run
Municipal Affairs.
CORPORATIONS NAMED
COMMITTEE OF SEVEN
Keeping Grafters on Board to
Prevent Schmitz from Nam
ing New Ones Sheriff to
Summon Schmitz Jurors.
By Associated Press. r
SAN FJUNCISCO, Cal., May 21.
Rudolph Spreckels, who occupies a
prominent place in tho prosecution of
municipal corruption in this city, has
defined his position in tho "graft" in
vestigation nnd tho reasons which con
fctiained tho prosecution from co-operating
with the lato "committco of
seven," when asked by tho Associated
Press whether the editorial statements
published locally to tho effect that tho
committee of seveu was endeavoring by
its interference in municipal affairs to
"snatch tho fruits of victory from
Spreckels," represented his sentiments.
Ho replied:
"I do not need nnybody to blow my
horn, nor do I thank anyone for trying
to do it. These editorial utterances,
dospito opinion to tho contiary, wero
mado without my knowledge and con
sequently must have been without my
consent.
"As far as tho committee of seven is
concerned, I havo this to say:
Aro All Eight, But
"Tho committee is or was com
posed of men of fino standing in the
community. No one will impugn their
motives, but it is perfectly apparent
that they, even though without their
knowledge, wero elected by the cor
porate interests; and wero appointed by
Mayor Schmitz. Now I and my assist
ants have our hands full in prosecuting
tho bribers and graftcra. That is
enough for any set of men to under
take. We aro not concerned at present
with tho udties which tho committee
of seven felt itself called upon to exe
cute. Wo did not ask a committee to
confer with us. But when the commit
tco called upon llcncy and I, I toid
them frankly that I did not see why
they, representing a body of men who
mado no effort to hold up my hands in
the initial or later stages of the brib-
cry-graft investigation, should at this
time butt in with tho demand that we
permit tho supervisors to resign.
Mayor Still Has Plans
"The resignation of tho supervisors,
sixteen self-confessed bribe takers,
would mean tho appointment by Mayor
Schmitz of a new board which would be,
of course, in accord with any plans he
might desire to carry out. I need not
suggest what their plans might bo.
"It was tho intention of tho commit
tee of seven ns announced to us, to se
cure tho consent of the prosecution to
tho removal of tho board of public
works, tho police commission and the
board of supervisors, whether by resig
nation or otherwise. I made it vcrv
plain to tho committee thnt it was our
belief that the committee was created
through the mayor by tho United Rail
roads and Mr. Hcrrin, and that wo could
lavo no dealings with it.
"It 13 certainly true that the situ
ation in San Francisco demands relief
tluough a chnngo of municipal officers.
But I myself am concerned only with
carrying out tho investigation and the
prosecution of graft and bribery. Tile
charge that I seek to control the politics
of the city or to administer municipal
affaire is absolutely falso.
Only Wants a Clean-out
"My solo endeavor and wholo pur
poso is to clean out tho corruption that
has Jnfcsted nil forms of municipal lifo
and thereafter to formulato and put in
to effect a system of municipal espion
nge and control which shall mako at
least improbablo tho resumption of
thoso vices which we arc now trying to
stamp out.
"It is truo that wo aro keeping tho
board of supervisors, n majority of
them solf-confessed bribe takers, in of
fice, but wo are doing this not by way
of political control, but for tho purposo
of preventing tho mayor from naming
a new bonrd which would carry out his
orders and nullify to a great extent our
efforts for pormanont reform.
"Tho charge by President Cajhoun
of tho United Railroads that tho district
attorney has taken stops for tho seizure
of the Geary strcot road in order to
cripplo tho United Railroads in its fight
against tho car men's union is a very
natural and ordinary charge. Calhoun
is on tho defensive Ho must do tho
best ho can,"
No Elisor for Schmitz
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., May 21.
Unless tho present intentions of the
prosecution have changed, tho elisor
will not havo a part in tho selection of
tho jury to try Schmitz on fivo charges
of extorting money from French res
taurants. This determination was, ex
pressed in a ruling by Judge Dunne to
dny whon ho discharged from service
all tnlesmon remaining from tho late
Rucf veniros and gavo into the handsof
Sheriff O'Neill tho summoning of a new
venire of fifty, returnable tomorrow.
Wbothor it is tho intention of tho
nrosocution to ask tho court to orders
Schmitz into custody pending the trial
l not known. Hcnoy stated to tho
court that them is no proient intention,
but it may bo dono later.
Dcnno Denies Ttfotioa
Judgo Dunne today denied a motion
of the dcfcnBQ for a substitution of
tho trial judge, which motion was sup
ported by nflidavits charging that Judge
Dunne is biased and prejudiced against
Schmitz nnd that Rudolph Spreckels
ind thoso associated with him a3 finan
cial guarantors of tho bribery-graft in
vestigation aro carrying out a conspir
acy to dethrone the present municipal
administration in order themselves to
assumo tho government and secure val
uable railway and water franchises. In
contravention of tho charges, the pros
ecution filed counter affidavits denying
ulterior motives. It i3 expected 'that
impaneling of tho jury will begin tomorrow.

BOISE, Idaho, May 21. It is pre
dicted today that the first witness tes
tofying in the Stcunenbcrg murder case
will take the stand one week hence.
There aro still eight unexpended per
emptory challenges and tho additional
vacancy created by tho excuse for ill
ncs3 of Juror Cole and under the ruling
of Judge Wood the entire jury is still
open to further examination. The ses
sion scheduled for Thursday will be
sLortcned by the time necessary to hear
tho excuses of special veniremen and
directly they aro assembled no doubt
ib expresesd about the completion of tho
jury by adjournment Saturday after
noon. Thoso who reduce the proposi
tion to a mathematical calculation
based on the experience of the trial to
date predict that the jury will be finally
sworn in Monday next and that tho
opening statement will bo made cither
Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning
and that the first real testimony will be
taken Tuesday.
Two Hundred Witnesses
It has not been decided whether
James II. Hawloy or Senator Borah will
make the opening statement for the
prosecution. They said today that they
had not considered the question, but
would take it up later in the week.
Tho prosecution continues to file names
of all witnesses to be used in the four
cases pending and they now number
nearly two hundred. Less than one
third of them will be called in the Hay
wood case.
Harry Orchard, the principal witness
for the state, will probably be on the
stand for a full week. His examination
in
chief is expected to occupy from
hreo to four days and his cross exam
ination nearly as long. -It is -balieved-that
ho will bo called about one week
from Thursday, assuming that tha jury
