CERF KICKS UP A MUSS Companion of Curly Boss llefuses to Anvrr Questioiislnvite-i Heney lo Fist-Fight in Street Kuef Kept Under Close Guard. ' SAN KRANOISCO. March 9. (Spe cial. The prand jury may soon be f-flllfd upon to investigate all the clr- . p.mistances loading up the derision rondrred by Judge Hebbard in which h granted Abe Ruef a writ of error. The charge has been made before the "Bar Association of the city that Sam- ue! Shortridse, Henry Arb and -C. H. Katrall, attorneys for Ruef, are as culpable as Judge Hebbard. A scandal bigger than any the state bar has yet known is threatened. The Qrand Jury this afternoon began nn Investigation into the circumstances intending the disappearance of Ruef. Foreman Oliver of the Grand Jury, in calling to the stand MyrtLle Cerf, Ruefs companion in hiding, said it was the in tention to lay the basis of possible in diitments for perjury ajranst Ruef's at torneys, who took the witness stand be fore Judge Dunne and under oath dared they bad no knowledge of de the whereabouts of the boss. Cerf clashed repeatedly with the jury. At the outset, he attempted to leave the . juryroom, and when stopped by Percival Dolman, the doorkeeper, a fight ensued. Letter Cerf clashed with Foreman Oliver and Invited Assistant District Attorney Heney to the street to settle the matter in a more ahrupt way. Foreman Oliver Intervened and restored order. Cerf re peatedly refused to tell with whom he and Ruef bad communii-ated from their i-hldlng-place. He was taken before Judge -l Coffey, who ordered hi in to answer the lusttons propounded. Upon returning to the Grand Jury room Cerf refused to answer on the grounds that he mlKht Incriminate himself. The matter was put ' nver for the present and will ie taken up , later. Abe Ruef was a prisoner today In a " ruom at tiie St. - Francis Hotel. He was watched over by William J. Higgey, the - .special elisor, and four detectives. But a few feet from the spot where he Is now held captive, Ruef addressed a large mass meeting six months ago and boasted of hts power. The city government was his then from top to bottom. Although Ruef is held a prisoner, he is shown every courtesy. He is allowed to receive his friends and to carry on his business, always howvver under the watchful eye of detectives. He lias been . provided 'with all of the current ten-cent literature. He takes his meals at . the 'St. Francis grill, and is allowed to exer- else for a few minutes in the afternoon accompanied by a guard. Higgey has Instructions to take Ruef into court Monday. An effort is being made to have Heney agree to his release tomorrow on bail. Heney was in confer ence with Rtsgey for an hour at the St. Francis Hotel tonight. He did not visit Ruef and refused to discuss the purpose of his tiiiK with Riggey. Ru'f Is crushed in spirit, but assumes an air of light-heartedness. At infer v.ite he scores Judge Dunne and then jokes with his captors. It is now believed that the purpose of .Ruef's flight wae" to await t'he passage of a bill which his .friends have- intro duced into the State Legislature allowing an accused person by affidavit to charge prejudice against a Judge and thus dis qualify him from presiding at his trial. The bill, which It was thought Ruefs friends, -with corporation aid, would be able to put through, was voted down yes terday. . PL.NKI TKIl.MPHAXT KXTKY Hums and the Haiti I'pset Neat Little Selieme of Abe ltuef's. SAN FRANCISCO. March 9. Abraham Ruef. who was taken into custody last nlKht by the court elisor. W. J. u'iggey, assisted by Detective Burns, of the Dis ' trict Attorney's office, and who Is being held under arrest at the St. Francis Ho tel, will not be . brought info Superior Judge Dunne's court for trial until Mon day morning. I'ntil that hour, Bigpey will he responsible to the court for his safe keeping. Abraham Ruef has issued a statement, In which he says: "When the case was ended in Judge . Hebbard's court last Monday and by the writ of error put into the Supreme Court of the United States, knowing that Judge Dunne had no further Jurisdiction of the proceedings, I thought I would take a rest for three or four days. '"It never was my intention to evade any process of the court, or to escape from the jurisdiction of the court or leave the city. I never left the city, nor will 1 do so. My reason for taking the case to the Supreme Court of the United States was t.hat 1 had been advised that Judge Dunne had practically contracted to pack a jury in the case which was to be heard before him. "1 am willing to be tried upon this in famous charge, of whft-h 1 am not guilty, but 1 want a fair Judge and a fair jury. 1 do not propose, if It is possible to avoid It. to go up against a stuck jury and a prejudiced Judge. "Mr. Uiggey and Mr. Burns and the ra in. a 1 tog t her, forestalled me." said Ruef to an Associated Press represen tative this morning "We had it framed up ye.vterday to charter a launch at the Cliff House, walk two miles across the sand dunes from Tiocadero, go aboard, hoist a flag and sail up to the city in j1" state just to announce to the public Jthat I was not in hiding despite the general supposition. But it rained so hard we had to give that programme up, and I am sorry. "I have not at any time been seek ing to avoid a fair trial. Even though Judge Dunne has seen tit to disregard my habeas corpus application now pending before the Supreme Court of the L lifted States, which we claim acts as a stay to all proceedings in the .lower court, I would have been and I '.am now ready and -willing to go to trial before Judge Dtunie without fur ther delay, if there were any assur a noe of a fair trial. But I don't pro--po.t lo be jobbed." "During your stay at Trocadero and since you were declared by Judge Dunne a fugitive, were you in com munication with your attorneys?' Ruef wns asked. - . Well, not directly." he replied. At Los Angeles. 1XIS A Ni; Kf S. ' Cal. March 9. The feature ol" tmiay's races at Ascot was tho Eanta Alomca stakes, valued at $i;xw.

'Thc wide prevalence of coughs, colds, grip and pneumonia mark an ex perience, of severe and protracted Win ter weatJier the like of which we have not seen for many a year. The stub born persistence of catarrhal troub les is also a marked feature of tne depressing influences which follow a long siege of rapidly changing low and raw temperatures. The man is fortunate indeed who has not been at some time since Christmas confined to his bed with a 'cold' of some sort that he cannot succeed in curing. This con dition of affairs has existed for months, and the end is not ye!. In fact, it be hooves all careful people to be on their -ruard against alt catarrhal troubles more than ever. "Mareh is a typical pneumonia month and gives a high rate of mortality for the disease. One reason for this is that :ifter our long and hard Winters the system loses its natural resistance to cold. Only the hardy ones are like ly to withstand the strain, and even these are by no means safe when grip is increasing almost to epidemic man ifestation. "The ordinary Void. the grip and pneumonia belong to the same family of Winter diseases. Although thev may be excited by different infectious in fluences, their ultimate effects arc the same when the attacks are sufficient ly severe. "An acute catarrh is always the re sult of undue exposure to low temper atures. The rapid cooling of the sur face, when not balanced by proper re action, produces congestion and in flammation of the nasal and bronchial membranes. Obviously such an ail ment is not communicable, in the or dinary sense, from one individual to another. As the slightest Void' pre disposes the individual to attacks of the most severe and dangerous catarrh al affections, the necessity tor its quick cure need not be enforced.' All. these facts emphasize the neces sity of extraordinary precautionary measures against the ordinary cold. Everyone cannot change his climate at will, but many make the most of what be has at home, viz., take Chamber lain's Cough Remedy as soon as the first indication of the cold appears. It not only cures a cold quickly, but counteracts any tendency of the cold to result in pneumonia. "This fact has been fully prbven -during the epidemic of colds and grip of the past few years. No case of either of these diseases having resulted in pneumonia when this remedy was used has ever been reported to the manufacturers, which shows conclusively that it is not only the best ami quickest cure for colds, but a certain preventive of that dnn ffcrnua disease.

MAKES STATEMENT PUBLIC Phraseology of School Law Altered in Few Places, but Essentials Remain Same Exclusion secured in Addition. SAX FRAXCISCO. March 9. Mayor SHimitz today issued a statement ad dressed to the people of San Francisco, in which, after stating that "as a mat ter of course." he has not expected fair treatment by the newspapers, he re lates at length the conference on the Japanese question held at Washington between the President, the School Board of this city and himself. The Mayor asserts that, without surrendering any of the rights of the people, he and the School Board succeeded in opening the way for the immediate exclusion of Japanese laborers, as well as for a stronger treaty and an absolute exclu sion law at the next session of Con gress. In his statement Mayor Sehmitz says in part: "During our various conferences with the President we set out at great length the views of the people of this state upon Japanese exclusion and sub mitted the many reasons why, from the standpoint of organized labor, the enactment of a law positively exclud ing Japanese laborers was most desir able. "We were informed that although the President was willing to aid in ob taining the desired results, it was too late in the session to pass an exclusion law, and that he was stopped from obtaining exclusion by treaty for diplo matic reasons, chief among which was the very earnest objection by Japan to the phrase Jlogy of the resolution of the Board of Education, whereby Japa nese pupils had been segregated. It was urgently suggested that under the conditions persented it would be the part of wisdom to alter the language of the resolution of the Board of Kd ucation, to the end that, by the removal of terms to which the objection had been made, though without in any manner surrendering any of our rights in the premises, the way would be the more easily opened for immediate ex clusion under such a law as might be enacted before the adjournment of Congress and for a stronger treaty and an absolute exclusion law at the next session of Congress. Objection of the .Japanese. "The resolution of the Board of Edu cation, under date of October 11, 1906, to which objection was made by Japan, pro vided in express terms that Japanese pu pils should be segregated with Chinese and other children of Oriental schools. Now, the ofTentiiveness of this resolution to Japan was not so much in the segre gation itself as in the placing of the Japanese on the same level with the Chi nese and the Koreans.' It became appar ent, after a very complete discussion of the subject, that if the intent of the resolution was couched in different lan guage all possibility of objection would be removed by the elimination of objec tionable terms. Such change, while not altering the policy of the Board of Edu cation of regulating by resolution the ad mittance of Japanese children into the public schools, would also insure the im mediate passage of a law placing in the bandsr of President Roosevelt the power to exclude Japanese laborers, skilled and unskilled. We had received the personal assurance of the President that he would exercise the power of the' Administration in the interests of the Pacific Coast, and in the particular interest of worklngmen. "Under these conditions and with this distinct understanding, and wjth the help of the Representatives and Senators of California and the other Pacific Coast states, an amendment to the immigration bill S. B. No. 4403) was drawn, sub mitted to a conference committee of the House and Senate and passed by Con gress. "This amendment empowers the Presi dent fo deny admittance to the United States of Japanese laborers, skilled or unskilled, seeking entrance by way of Mexico. Canada, Honolulu, the Philip pines, the Canal Zone or any other part of the world. It should also be borne in mind in this .connection that while obtaining the pres ent law extending the powers of the ex ecutive to the exclusion of the Japanese, we have also obtained the President's personal assurance that his powers will be exerted in this matter in the interests of the people of California, and moreover that he will assist in the enactment ot an exclusion law at the next session of Congress. Xo Rights Surrendered. "To achieve the great results brought about, no rights were surrendered either by the Board of Education or myself. The October resolution of segregation was based on the law of the state. That law, we upheld; the rights of the Board of Education arising from it we main tained: that the action of the Board of Education was in violation of . any treaty rights of Japan we denied, and do still deny. At Washington we insisted that California had the right to regulate the affairs of her state schools to suit her self. In our statement issued at Wash ington which was read and approved by the President and by the entire California delegation of Senators and Representa tives we expressly insisted upon these points, and they were conceded by the President. "in return for a present exclusion law. and for a solemn promise of the great aid of the President for a more exten sive exclusion law at the next session of Congress, we have simply agreed to change the wording of the October resolution, without changing its effect. The resolution will -now apply to the chil dren of all alien races; it will regulate the admittance of children deficient in the English language and it will prevent youths and adults of Oriental races sitting in classes with our young cmi dren. "Those Japanese who are barred by age or by the other limitations in the new resolution from the primary grades will be required to attend separate schools provided in such manner as may seem best to the . Board of Education. The effect of the new resolution, there fore, hi practically the same as was the effect of the October resolution. The only difference is that, while the latter referred in terms to Japanese, the former includes Japanese . among other alien races." Knds Basketball Season.

Indications Are That Today's Game Can Be Played With Local Xinc McCredie Cheerful. SALINAS, Cal., March 9. (Special.) A heavy downpour of rain has been the order in this section all day. Mc Crcdie had his men out a short time and made an attempt at practice, but could do nothing, as the ground was too sloppy. This evening the weather is clearing and hopes are entertained that the opening practice game of the season will be played between the Beavers and the. Salinas team. If the game should be played, as Salinas is not used to exercise in rainy weather, Portland will have an easy victory. None of the absentees .have reported as yet, and as all railroad travel con tinues to be demoralized on account of the weather, it is impossible to learn when they will be here. McCredie is not at all uneasy over their nonappearance, and says they will turn up all right as soon as the weather moderates sufficiently to al low the trains to arrive regularly. The citizens of Salinas are anxious to see the team all here, so that they can witness first-class ballplaying. They are as enthusiastic over the practice and proposed practice games of the Beavers, as the visitors are over Salinas and its facilities. EXHILARATING RIDE IX HILLS Members of Hunt Club Enjoy One of Best Chases of Season. One of the most beautiful and delight ful rides held so far this season by the members of the Portland Hunt Club took place yesterday afternoon, when the riders followed the trail that had been selected by Mrs. T. H. BIythe and Frank Wilder. The ride was one of the regular closed paper chases, but on account of the trail, which was laid through the hills and canyons on Willamette Heights, there was no run-in at the finish. Over the course, however, were a number of clever jumps' and this, together with the scenic beauty of the ride and the bright sun shine of the afternoon, more than made up for the excitement of the brush at the finish. The start was made from Lovejoy street and the Cornell road. From that point the trail was laid through the Willamette hills and those who rode through got a.chance at some risky hill side riding and difficult trail following. The ride covered a distance of ten miles and was thoroughly enjoyed. Those who rode through were Mrs. F. O. Downing. Mrs. A. M. Cronln. Mrs. F. G. Buffum, Mrs. Clarence Nichols, Mrs.S. C. Spencer, Mrs. Edmunds, Miss Spencer, Mrs. W. L. Wood, Miss Shogren, Miss Mabel Lawrence and Miss Cronin; K. M. Lazarus, William Gollmann, Dr. E. Drake. Dr. W. L. Wood, B. B. Ster ling, Arthur Gay, T.

At a meeting of the executive committee of the Western Bowling Congress, now holding its sec ond annual tournament here, a strong feeling developed aginst the entries in the present tournament of Eastern, men, whose sympathies are said to lie entirely with the American Bowling Congress. It was claimed by several Western dele gates, notably M. J. Sheehan, of Butte, second vice-president of the Western, that w; V. Thompson, of Chicago, who is here with a two-man team of which he Is a member. Is at heart unfriendly to the Western. It was pointed out by Den ver members of the committee that Thompson came to Denver last Fall, and did his best to force the Western Bowl ing Congress to change its name to the Western Bowling Association in order, so it is claimed, that the Americaru Bowling Congress would be injured. It was also asserted by committeemen that the fact that he Is sending several four-men teams to the St. Louis meeting of the Amefican. while bringing but a two-man team here, is an indication that he is working for the American After a lengthy and exciting discussion it was finally decided to permit Thompson to bowl in the Denver tourney, but a resolu tion was adopted urging the Congress to appoint a committee to confer with like committees from the American and Na tional Congress, with a view to dividing up the territory for the purpose of mem bership. The Western lays claim to all the terri tory west of the Missouri River, although American officials, it Is claimed, have been busy in Omaha, Kansas City, Chi cago and St. Louis in attempting to hold its clubs in line. The sentiment prevails among the ad herenfs of the Western Bowling Congress that to strengthen itself in its chosen ter ritory, the Western should hold its next tournament either -in Omaha or Kansas City, for by so doing it would draw teams from all the Missouri River towns.
