Boodling Supervisors Resign and New Board Is Installed

NAMED BY
SCHMITZ

; * Appointees of

Announcement Made by
Mayor at Ml
_-
At the same time that the board
of supervisors was being reconstructed
.last night by Mayor Taylor at the
hall of justice in Eddy street former
, Mayor Schmitz appointed a board of
his own at the county jail. . It was
admitted on behalf of Schmitz that
.he had named 16 men to take the
•places of the boodlers, but he refused
to make public the list It was added
•that the names probably would be
• given out today. As soon as Schmitz
].had made up his list he communicated
with Chief of Police Dinan and in
formed him of the action taken. It
• was then arranged that the Schmitz
.board should take possession of the
quarters in the hall of justice as soon
: as possible, and Dinan promised to
give full police protection to the
t Schmitz representatives. San Fran
cisco, therefore, will find itself with an
extra government on" Its " hands.* "VAs
DJnan has refused to recognize Mayor
Taylor's authority and will take orders
from Echmitz it may require a court
order to force him to desist In his at
tempts to block the regular city gov
ernment. This may force the issue
sooner than the projected suit to com
, pel Auditor Horton and Treasurer Ban
te\ to recognize Taylor's authority.
It is not likely that the Taylor gov
ernment will indulge In a rous'i and
tumble contest with the Schmitz ap
pointees for possession of the quarters
In the hall of Justice, It will be easier
to adjourn to some other building and
• carry on the city's affairs.
XO WORD FROM SCHMITZ
District Attorney Langdon said last
night that lie had received no word
from Schmitz and had' taken no precau
tions to protect' the new board of-su
pervisors. Mayor Taylor did riot care
to discuss the subject.
The first note of the approaching dis-;
cord was sounded' by Supervisors
Tveitmoe and O'Neil : last night when
they Intimated that trouble from a
double set of officials was In store.
; Tveitmoe caid that Mayor Taylor
should have deferred: the appointment
of the new supervisors until the courts
had determined his status "in order to
avoid a bigger tangle than the. one we
are tow. in." Supervisor O'Neil spo&e
in a similar vein.. \u25a0-•- \u25a0 •
* A few.minutes later a telephone mes-
BE.ge from the county jail the
information that Schmitz had received
word that the supervisors had resigned
and that he was making up a list of
yrhis own. It 4s said that he has not yet
been able, to Inform all of his . ap
pointees, but that he will reach all of
them today and have them called to
gether IfalEO is^ald that Schmitz has
requested a number of men affiliated
with labor union's to become members
of his new , board. Much" secrecy is
being maintained as to the personnel of
the Schmitz 'board.
WILY. APPOINT. FIKTEE.Y 318.V
When Dr. Charles Boxton resigned
from the * board Schmitz was "quick jto
fill the vacancy .'with one of his ap
pointees. In fact,' Schmitz was, too
quick, for. he Samuel. Sawyer
before .Boston's : resignation had been
accepted. Schmitz will : make 15 more
appointments. • -.'.,- -\u25a0 "\u25a0." \u25a0.
The. deadlock will; come .when both
boards order money paid out of the
treasury. ;If the; situation does ; noth
ing, else It will press* the? lssue to'; a
epeetfy, determination. ..

The ignominy" heaped upon him was
