SCHMITZ IN A TRAP
IN RUSSIAN PRISON.
Hay» Into Honey'» Hand» by Oponlrg
Way for Ruef.
flan Francieco. Juno 12.—What
looked like • field day tor Mayor
flcbmlta In hla trial for extortion,
waa tranaformed by a sudden coup
of Francis J. Heney Into a distinct
victory for the prosecution.
With
both Schmit« and Ruef on the stand,
the day was replete with sensations,
but capping all waa the neatly laid
trap Into which the defense made a
precipitous fall. The trap was care
fully la'd, even to the point where
the Mayor himself unknowingly
sprung In.
When Mr. Heney announced that
the prosecution had completed Its
case, the defense, thinking that the
danger from Ruef had passed, de
cided to put Schmits on the stand
The Mayor, accordingly, appeared In
his own behalf and. regarding Ruef
as no longer a menace, rushed ahead
with his denials.
He reached the
point on cross-examlntlon where Mr
Heney asked him If he had received
any of the money paid to Ruef by
the French restaurants, and. despite
the warnings from his own attorney,
Schmit« answered In the negative
In so doing he played completely
Into the hands of the prosecution,
not only by laying a basis for the
Introduction of the testimony of
Ruef In rebuttal, but by passing the
entire extortion up to Ruef In such
a manner that the captive boss will
eagerly refute the testimony by de
claring that he paid half the money,
or 82590. to Schmitx.
Both Mr Heney and Mr. Burns
were confident last night, and well
satisfied with the turn of events.
"We look for conviction.” said
Mr. Henev
"We believe we have
proved our case.”

Both mon had been condemned to

hearing the evidence produced, the
court sentenced Smith to prison tor

Both men were defended by Vladi

Smith, a naturalised cltlxen ot the
United States admitted to ball, as he
will carry the caao to the Ruaalan
Senate. Slbbul said to your corres
pondent:
"I beg you to express my most
heartfelt sentiments to the American
people, whose glorious declaration of
Independence will be read uow In the
Huaalan prisons
It has caused me
hard suffering, but I am glad I read
It. I have not been any way a rebel
or a terrorist and know only my
farm work, I am a farmer. Just as
the Americans who wrote and read
this great manifesto of freedom were
farmers.
“Un the anniversary of tho declar
ation of American Independence I
try to express with my fellow-suffer
ers here our reaped for this great
historical day. We will tear up our
shirts and paint the pieces with the
stars and stripes and so make Utile
American flags, which we will wave
out of the prison windows,”
It Is possible that both men will
be exiled to Siberia, although neither

declaration ot Independence la no

statutory crimes.
In spite ot the strongest protests
In the Douma against the cruelties
committed by the Russian prison

prisoners, they are dally torturing
the prisoners In a moat brutal way.
Mr Smith said:
“I have been beaten four times be
cause I refused to eat the nauxviu«

with better food, which was brought
to me from outside the prison."
