SAN FRANCISCO. June 14. Attorn
eys in the trial of Patrick Calhoun,
President of the United Railroads,
charged with the bribery of former
supervisor Fred Nlcholsr In connec
tion with the granting of an overhead
trolley franchise, began the closing
arguments today. Calhoun was ln
licted .March 26, last year. The oN
'clal transcript of the trial contains
1,475,000 words. Assistant District
Ittorney John O'Gara, Heney's right
land man, opened for the prosecution
Mid made an impassioned appeal to
die jury to safeguard the honor o
'heir homes, and the. integrity of
.heir institutions.
He said: "If you are satlsiied that
be $200,000 received by Calhoun at
lie L'. S. mint was paid to supervis

O'Gara' continued:". .'"There Is noth

crime which this record shows. It
shows that Calhoun wanted a fran
chise for the operation of an over
head trolley. It shows- that the day
of the earthquake was a propitious
time; that he made a contract with
Abe Ruef; that Ruef gave orders to
his puppets, the suar visors, and that
without any consideration for the
'rights' bftrie"people Calhoun pocketed
tha franchise," went to his eastern
home, and the supervisors got the
money. The case resolves itself Into
two questions: First was a bribe of
ferr ' j Nichols? Second was the
defendant legally responsible for of
fering a bribe? The law does not re
quire us to show that Calhoun went
