THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, 8UNDAY MORNINO. OCTC IBM SAFETYCOWMITTEE FORJRISCO Abe Ruef Stack Man Meeting i With Followers Who Loudly Cheer for Him. 4088 DRIVEN TO BAY ABLY DEFENDS HIMSELF Political Supporter! Pack Hall, Forc ing Business Man and Citizens to Hold Meeting Out-of-Doors, Where They Roundly Abuse Boss. (Special Dup.ich bj Less Wire to Tb Joornsl) 1 San Francisco, Oct It. Aba Reuf. boas of San Francisco, driven to bay by the wave of Indignation walch followed in the wain of tit numerous atrocities that have mad property and even life unsafe la this city during the past two Months, rendered uneasy by the storm fir protest against Inefficiency in pub lic office, appeared this afternoon at the mass meeting called to organise a committee of on hundred and there vigorously and skillfully defended hlm aelf and the administration for which He la universally held responsible. He came, be said, not aa one Interested lr. the movement but aa a cltlsen. and with him east a large number of hla personal and political supporters. In structed to cheer for him and make pub lic sentiment in his favor. Aa la usual with demonstrations planned by Boas Ruef. hla program went through with out a hitch, and for almost aa hour the astute manipulator stood bareheaded on the steps of the promotion committee's building In Union Square and mad hla defense. Ruef a following far outnumbered the members of the various organizations Who have been called on to appoint the 'posed committee. The latter planned to hold the gathering Indoors, but before the hour set for the convention, so many Ruef men occupied seats in the small hall that no room was left for those who planned and organised the movement. So all adjourned to the Hark. There several hundred persons, among whom were many prominent in the buslnoaj and professional life of the city, wet gathered; and there the res olutions framed by a committee ap pointed last Thursday were adopted. The meeting waa then immediately adjourned, but the crowd remained to hear the defense of the Schmlts admin istration. The boss and his followers were com .felted to listen to some bitter denun ciations of their methods. A. B. Tru man, amid considerable cheering, vehe mently and reepstedly branded Ruef as i a man that profits by the shame of flfomen, as a grafter, and as the on 5WSOO responsible for the orgy of crime mt Is terrorising this city. In addl on to this excoriation, resolutions Were read and loudly cheered In which tjbe declaration was made that: "Notice Is aerved on the whole ad ' ministration of San Franclaco and the criminal element that the law-abiding citizens of this city intend to compel the enforcement of the law against crime and graft In all their forms, and tb that end will take a hand theamelves as may appear necessary for the pro tection of the people against political conditions; that they will meat lawless ness with Justice, and do not Intend to submit to the delays and failures of the present method of administering the law, but fully Intend to see to It that law and order Of a substantial type are made the order of the day and that forthwith." When the meeting waa oalled to order the resolutions framed Thursday even ing were read. They declared that united effort Is necessary to rehabilitate the city, and to overcome the difficul ties now confronting the oltlzena, that moral courage and determined action are necessary to secure and preserve the best Interests of Baa Frsnclaco, and that It was the sans of the meeting that ft citizens' committee of 100 be sppolnted to further all things that may be for the best interests of the city and state and to advocate and do auch things aa will ' moat speedily re store and enhance In prosperity of San Francisco. The resolutions declared that the com mittee shall be composed of two repre sentatives from each of th local civic and otner organ Isat long and enough other citizens appointed at large by the chair to make up th required 100. BIG STICK NOT SWUNG (Continued from Page One.) the Standard Oil Is that It would be ad visable for the government forces to see what the outcome of th prosecu tions in Ohio will be. Yet the bureau of corporations has been at thla investi gation for about II months, and every now and then the statement la given out that th bureau will soon have fin ished its report. As is well known, the report must go to the president first, and he takes up th matter with the attorney-general. Oreat Deal of There was a vast deal of rumor and report about the department of Justice today to th effect that th attorney general was surely to resign about Jan uary 1, and there were promises that the whole Standard Oil business will be wall under way by that time. That meana that there will scarcely be time to give the public sny Idea aa to wheth er the Standard Oil will be brought into court before election. On of the flimsiest of th state ments yet made Is that the ad minis t ra tios la so modest that If It did an nounce a program against the Standard Oil company new It will be "accused of doing it for political effect." The total responsibility, it may be said, rests with th White House. That Is true for the reaaon that when th bureau of corporations and other government agencies began to work up th oasa against ths Standard Oil company it was stipulated tnat the matter should be eubml tted to the White House, and it Is well known that Mr. Garfield baa been a frequent visitor at the White House, sometimes reporting on the Standard Oil case and at other times playing tennis. Th president must therefore, have been aware of the status of the Standard Oil Investigation an aiong and rr it were deemed advis able to avoid th Imputation of pro ceedings against ths Standard Oil luat before election the president could have ordered the work done long ago. Beady as Frooeed. Today the departments are savins that th fact of the foreign complica tion wun me standard Oil Is not of great Importance, because the combina tions can be broken up under the laws of the United' States. Attorneys Kel logg and Morrison of Chicago are cred ited witn oeing the agents of the aov- ernment who have charge of thla par ticular orancn or me case which has got th administration into a very deep hole. it will possibly be shown before that th department of justice was al ways ail ready to proceed and that by some accident or design that denart- ment did not have before It all the mat ter wnicn should be furnished bv the bureau of corporations. It waa announced some time azh with a flourish of trumpets that the bureau Of corporations -had good esses ready for th St. Louis district and for the district of Southern California, but these have not yet materialised.
