After this election there KPmrl no limit to the power and ambition tor tfoss Kuer. The United States senate was nis own personal goal. He plan iu secure me control or tne Ibl lowing year's republican state -con vention, and he grabbed the ma cmnery oi the old parties in San Francisco. The board of. supervisors as now practically his to command The board -of police commissioners and , the . police force were eollec tors of the assessments extorted from the saloons, dive-keepers, et al. A grand jury investigation was com pelled to report that no laws were being violated, and forced to en dorse the Schmitz administration. . nut .Langdon, who was now dis trict attorney, still refused to take orders. He turned down the request that charges of felony pending against certain friends of the admin istration be dismissed. When the ring gave , tne tip that "gambling would be allowed and a lavishly furnished pal ace of chance was opened, Langdon raided the place and" put it out of business. . - ' j The earthquake and ensuing Are that left the finest section of the citv r-.?. rninitr. na nv.er naa m ruins m April, 1906, was the means of showing that Schmitz was really a great man. He took control of the sit uation with a master hand and won the plaudits of army and navy offl cials, diplomats, cabinet officers and the entire country at large by the. wonderful ability he displayed in bringing order out of the chaotic conditions caused by N the disaster. That was the time . that opportunity knocked at his door. If he had chang ed his policies - after the earthquake the people of California would have givcnhim anything he desired. But the greed for riches had him and i :o trr::5act any business with the Ruef had already contrived a plan of r:: or ir it do so through his friend turning the still smoking ashes of the burnings ruins into riches. The United Railroads had long been de sirous of securing the privilege of operating its principal cable roads by the overhead trolley system, the latter method of propulsion being far cheaper. The United Railroads had met con siderable opposition on the part of the papers of the city in its attempt to secure the overhead trolley priv-, ilege and arrangements were about to be made for an underground con duit system, when the earthquake upset all the plans. The confusion following the disas ter was taken advantage of and the overhead trolley privilege was grant ed. ' According to the statements of witnesses-brought out : in. . the . trial of Patrick C.

Reef's poer was now an establish ed fact and fee was recognized as "the throughout the length and l:?adth of California. The science of grafting, indulged 2 so moderately during the first S3, that it was practically un wiiced, began to attract a little at trition. Through the police commis si! saloons and dive-keepers were '?:!-ed. A French restaurant was :;ed up for impropriety, and gen- mished to Ruef for supplying "::.ar places a clean bill of health. "ceii preparations were made for -e campaign of 1905 Schmitz was 5:n rlaced at the head of the union iior ticket, but candidates for the aruing oiSces on the .ticket be- unusually scarce.

They ,next planned to sell a source of water supply in the Sier ras to the city. The supervisors pass ed resolutions announcing that they would close the bargain whereby the city would pay $10,500,00 for proper ties that had been bonded for some thing less than $500,000. - Here Rudolph Spreckle, the sugar millionaire, set about planning to de feat' this new -attempt of the ring to filch the pockets of the city govern ment. The disappointments of hav ing the trolley permit granted when he had pledged himself to defeat the plan was still hurting him and he announced that a fund of $100,000 had been raised to investigate the rharees of corruption that had been made against the administration. Dis trict Attorney Langdon appomtea Francis J. Heney assistant district attorney on October 20, 190b, and the fight began in earnest. Th reauest was made for the sum moninir of a new grand jury. This was followed by a move on the part of Ruef that caused any of the re- mntninir friends among the people to romnletelv against him. "Big Tim" Gallagher was acting mayor in the absence of Schmitz, who was en joying a pleasure trip to Europe. Gallagher was instructed by Ruef to remove Langdon as district attorney and appoint Abe himself to the office. of extorting money from the French restaurants but after serving five months in jail was released on the decision of the appellate courts that he had committed no crime. Louis Glass, of the telephone company, was convicted and later turned loose by the court of appeals. Tirey L. Ford was tried twice. After a disagree ment of the first jury he was ac quitted at the second trial. Ruef was tried on two bribery charges and after one jury disagreed he was con victed by the second. - These events were enlivened by the most dramatic sideplays. The home of Gallagher, the "key witness" of the prosecution, was blown up when he was at the . dinner table with his family, and in spite of the fact that the house was almost com pletely destroyed, , none of the eight occupants were . injured. Two Greeks confessed to the dynamiting and ad mitted that they had been hired by one Padeauvaris, another Greek, who was henchman of Ruef and a former employe of the United Rail roads detective agency. . He escap ed arrest. The two Greeks also con fessed that they were hired to poison Heney, Spreckles and Burns. ' Attorneys were indicted for jury fixing and for kidnapping witnesses, while Others were charged with fel ony for stealing records from the district attorney's office. Cramer, one of the emploj-es of the telephone conipany committed suicide. The shooting of Francis J. Heney, by Morris Haasi was the most sensational- sidelight on the case. Haas had been summon ed for jury duty on the first trial of Ruef for bribery. He. swore-himself onto the jury, con fiding to a friend that he expected to make a neat sum of money for causing a disagreement. The friend notified the district attorney's office and a-picture of Haas was uncovered in the rogue's gallery. Heney showed the picture tohim and asked if he recognized it, whereupon Haas ad mitted that he had once been con victed of embezzlement. Upon the de mand of Heney he was excused from jury service. Six months later, while the second Ruef bribery trial was going on, Haas entered the court and shot Heney through the lower jaw. It was supposed at . first that Hen ey was mortally wounded and a big mass meeting was held denouncing the attempted assassination. The ex citement was increased by the suicide of Haas in the county jail. Charges were freely made that Haas had been inspired to his deed by the same influences that caused the dynamiting- of the Gallagher house and the attempted poisoning ; "' of Heney, Spreckles and Burns. ' . r , Soonafter this Chief of Police nt 0 lJ01l)K. fc YftYII Biggy, who had entered into a con- f troversy with Burns as to manner in which Haas secured the gun to kill himself, -fell off the " police launch into thft bav and was drowned. The ories of suicide and' even murder Special to The Iews. were put forward, but a Verdict ot Raleigh, Feb. 1. It is announced by accidental drownine was rendered.
