' Startling things are expected to be
brought out in the -coming trial. The
government Intimates that not only the
defendants named, but Senator Vulton
as well, will be shoved into the lime
light once the guns of the prosecution
are turned loose )t Mr. Heney. The
. derense on the other hand contends
that the government has no case upon
' which It can find a Jury to hold the sc
- cused men and they are confident that
the trial will result In' an acquittal
- It: is understood that the defense will
make an effort to have the present
jury venire aiscaraea or uie- court and
a new list drawn because of the fact
that all the men were selected from the
vallov counties. The -defense contends
that this is prejudicial to its case and
that the Jurymen ahould come from all
parts of the atate.
This question is not taken as a
serious one by Mr. Heney. as the same
contention was raised by the . defense
while Judge De Haven was on Oe
nencn ana at mat time the court held
that the Jury was regularly and cor
rectly drawn. ,
It is believed by Mrmenev that the"
trial of the Hall case will fill out the
greater- part of two weeks, v Mr. Heney

George C. Brownell was to be given im

San Francisco, Jan. , 11.- From his
cell in' the county Jail, Abo Riief today
began his campaign to wring an abso
lute immunity contract, signed and at
tested by a Judge of the superior court,
from the .forces of the grsft prosecu
tion, .V-.1. ,v , ;.' -',. ,
After a day. spent In seeing his at
torneys and other persons interesting
themselves in his behalf, Ruef pro
fessed to bs very pleased with his pros
pects tonight.
He was very cautious in referring to
his plans, however, and continued to
wear the same mantle of hauteur which
he has been draping himself with since
the appellate court' has decreed that a
rnaa whto extorts coin of the realm
from his brother breaks no law.
It has become known, however, that
Ruef Intends to follow the same plan as
Eugene Schmits and make formal ap
plication to the courts to. have his bail
reduced to some comfortable sum on the
inside of $1,000,000.
. If the courts refuse to entertain tills
application Ruef will try to secure his
reieass through Habeas corpus procoeu
ings. '
Ruef reduces the entire graft prosecu
tion to an equation very much like this:
xne prosecution declares mat me pri
mary object of Its labor Is to convict
the corporation captains who gavs
bribes, rather than .to convict the men
who accepted the bribes. The prosecu
tion,' by its own admissions. Is pledged
to adhere to this policy, and if it falls
to obtain convictions of the men higher
up it will be forced to admit that It has
failed in Its purpose. Will it allow
an immunity contract, to Ruef to stand
In 'its way of doing what It has set
ont to do? Ruefs anawer to th ques
tion ts In the negative, and he believes
the history of the graft prosecution Is
replete with incidonte to prove the cor
rectness of his analysis of It since the
Daniels of the appellate court have
come to his assistance.
- The coming trial of Patrick CalhoUn
In February, will Drove Just how accur
ately Ruefs graft gyromancy will turn
out.
The graft prosecutors profess to be
lieve that they can secure the promised
convictions without the testimony of
Ruef. They say that there is additional
evidence, in their possession in connec
tion with the overhead trolley franchise
that was not used In the recent trial of
Tirey L. Ford for bribery, and that
Ruefs refusal to testify will not event
ually disconcert them. -
