Ruef Stricken WitH Illness
and Visitors Are Barred
ABE RUEF, who contracted/a cold several days ago, \
became so ill yesterday that Elisorßiggy sent in a hur-*
ried call for a physician. When Dr. A. S. Adler arrived
he found Ruef in a high fever and complaining of intestinal
pains. Dr. Adler told Biggy that no visitors should, be ad
mitted to Ruef, as his condition required absolute rest and*
freedom from worry. Biggy said late last night, that Ruef; was*
not resting quietly and that he felt concerned over his illness..
Another physician probably will be called into consultation
with Dr. Adler this morning. Dr. Adler believes. that Ruef is
suffering from a neglected cold. Ruefs symptoms also sug
gest appendicitis, the physician says, but he can not be sure
of his diagnosis until the patient has been under further
observation.

CO-OPERATION* OF GOVERNMENT
• The fact that "William J. Burns has
"been able to secure to the minutest
details the nature of the transactions
of the United Railroads at the mint
reveals the co-operation of the federal
government with the local graft prose
cution. While choosing what they
thought the safest place for their op
; the United Railroad* chose the
tnotrt dangerous.
Superintendent Frank Leach wai the
first witness sworn.
"Have you any knowledge of money
jarriving from the east and placed at
the disposal of the United Railroads or
its officials?" asked Heney. C^
A. — Yes. The sum of $520,000 was
placed to the credit of Patrick Calhoun
on April 28, l»06.
Q. — How w^s this money withdrawn?
A.— ln varying amounts. I remember
that the first withdrawal was $5,000.
Q. — Who secured this?
* A.— Mr. Mullally.
q. — Was any" one with him at the
time?
A-r-Mr- Ruef was with him. They
• came to the mint together and after
Mr. Mullally got the money he handed
it to Ruef.
. Q. — Was there any consideration?
\u25a0 • A. — There was.
MONEY FOR ABE RUEF
Q. — Wl>at was it? *:',-.;"\u25a0
A.— Mr. Mullally said to me: "I want
to give some of this to Mr. Ruef."
q. — what did^he the£ do?
" . A. — He gave the money to Mr. Ruef.
Q. — You saw him do that? • >"^ !
A. — Yes, sir. I did.
Q. — What did they do then?
. A. — They left the building together.
Q. — How was the rest of this money
withdrawn?
A— As I remember.it, 4t was with
drawn in six payments.
Q. — Of what denominations?
A. — The first was. $75,000, the next
• $25,000, the next $50,000, then another
$50,000, then $100,000 and a final with
drawal of $25,000.
Q. — Who withdrew this money? ,
A. Most of it was withdrawn by Mr.
Tirey Ford and Mr. Mullally.
Q. During what periods did these
withdrawals take place? S@B
A. From early In May until July.
• Q. How waj^the money paid. In coin
or. currency?
A. We paid out In gold. I remember
Mr. Mullally asked for currency, but
- we cotld not accommodate him, so he
tock gold.
CHANGED INTO CURRENCY
/ That Mullally and Ford did convert
the first withdrawal of $75,000 into
paper money was brought out in the
testimony of Nat Selig, who is now a
clerk at the mint, but who at that time
was acting In the mint tor the relief
corporation. The relief committee was
In daily receipt of heavy contributions
from the outside and had a largo
tmount of currency on' hand.
Sellg 'testified that he had changed*
the $75,000 of gold coin Into currency
for Mullally. The greater part of this
rurrency was of small denominations,
Kald Stllg. In their confessions the
supervisors said that the first payment j
of the United , Railroads boodle money :
was in t>e form of currency of small :
denominations. Sellg recalled that the j
bills had made a large package and ';
that he had wrapped them up for Mul- .
tally an 3, they had\ Jested as to the
eize of the package.
The testimony of Cashier- Thomas
Burns ctf the subtreasury centered
about the withdrawal, of $25,000 by
Ford and Mullally shortly after the
$75,000. .Burns said he recalled .the
ftjatter perfectly and was able to supply
, the grand Jury with all the necessary
ftetails. \ \u25a0 \
As to. the subsequent withdrawals
superintendent Leach of the mint was
able to testify. \ <
FOR, RUEF AND SCHSIITZ
Of this money the graft prosecutors
have amassed evidence showing that at
leapt $200,000 was invested In United
Railroads bonds, which were given' to
Ruef and Schmitz. The United Rail
roads did not propose to take . any
chinees of being mulcted more than
on te by Ruef and Schmitz for the
overhead trolley franchise. The ex
eevtive officers of the corporation who
enrlnecred the deal reasoned that Ruef
andSchmlti could be much more surely
reUlned In Its Interest If given bonds
paying desirable interest. It was
thoight the Interest would .ieep their
attention alive to. the welfare of the
roat, and they would not be so j likely
to ) be reaching out their prehensile
ha»ds for further bribes. ' . f „
Ihe case of the prosecution against
the\ corporation has been further '
treised . by evidence which shows - that
the! bonds were handed over to- Ruef
•.ndlSchmiti at" the home of. Mullally.
Witnesses to prove thU fact will be
callld before the' grand Jury at a sub-
Eeqihnt-time. i
Artlstant United States Treasurer
ffacols corroborated much of the testl
tnoni of the other federal witnesses
called before the Jury. He knew of
the -sflthdrawals of the money, testified
to byi Cashier Burns * of ' the , mint" and
was Intimate : 'with a great many . de
tails lof the account* while \u0084i t; was
credit*! to Calhoun at the mint. V
Attorney William Abbott, vwlio is as
sociates with Tirey X Ford in directing
the ' leral department ; of * " the . United
Railroids, refused .to be .sworn ; or? to
testifyrhen called before the Jury-: He
took thfe stand that he.waa an, of fleer
of a corporation ; under ' Investigation
and -co tid not be made to .relate "any
thing tlat might tend, to incrlmlnata
any perion cor.ected with It Miss Cel^a
WLcE>erm>tt and George Francis, stenogr ,
tsphersl for Abbot and Ford, ' also
wJ jit d ttn e&ma contention . when callfcd
to the stand." So did O. B. Willcutt, sec
retary of the corporation.
Heney notified all the recalcitrant
witnesses that they would be sum
moned before Judge Coffer either-.to
morrow or Tuesday and given an op
portunity to receive Judicial advice on
their rights. . '\u25a0'•/
• "If witnesses could take "-: advantage
of this* subterfuge the prosecution jof
corporation bribe givers would .be ab
solutely, impossible." said Heney. "The
contention raised today has absolutely
no status under the lawi 4 No court' will
sustain it/
A subpena for Tirey L. Ford request
ing his appearance before the grand
jury as a witness was sent for service
on him at Los Angeles yesterday.
EVERY CE.VT IS TRACED
Sensational .as. was the - evidence
given before the grand Jury yesterday
In regard to the United Railroads'
boodle fund, evidence even more sensa
tional will be presented before the case
has been completed. As the case now
Etands the grand Jury has the confes
sions of the supervisors that they re
ceived the money for their votes from
Gallagher. Gallagher has , told the
grand Jury that he secured it from
Ruef, with instructions to pay the su
pervisors, and Frank Lynch has stated
that he saw Mullally pay it to Ruef.
In the evidence to be laid before the
grand Jury to round , out the case will
be descriptions of confidential conver
sations between Calhoun and Ruef and.
a story of an evening at the home of
the mayor, when Schmitz had as his
guests Calhoun, Ford, Mullally and
Ruef. This will be supplemented by
the recital of occurrences at- the home
of Mullally, when the same persons
were present and the .subject under
discussion* was bonds, and United Rail
roads bonds in particular.
Before the case has been completed
every cent of tire immense boodle fund
will have been traced step lay step from
the east to the mint, to Ruef and
Schmitz and the supervisors.
GLASS ARGUMENTS ENDED
Judge Lawlor Win' Rule on Demurrer
to Charges on Friday *
The arguments upon the demurrer to
the nine grand jury" indictments against
Louis Glass, manager Vof the Pacific
States telephone company, for the brib
ery of supervisors were concluded yes
terday in Judge Lawlor's department,
and the judge announced that/ his de
cision would be rendered next Friday
morning.. If he sustains, the demurrer
on any of its ..many points 'ar question
will arise as to , what order »shall be
made in the disposition of Glass' case
— whether he shall be released, re-ln
dlcted by the present grand jury or
bound over for action by another grand
Jury. . Attorney T. C. . Coogan, counsel
for Glass, told the court that he de
sired to be heard on these points if the
demurrer were sustained. .
The arguments yesterday by Coogan
and Special Prosecutor C. W. Cobb re
duced the ; demurrer to two pertinent
points: One regarding the need for the
Indictment to allege that the accused
had knowledge that the man who got
the money was a supervisor; the other
as to whether or" not the indictment
should have specified : the '' particular
