ABE RUFF MAY GO
TO ORDINARY JAIL
Boss Special Guardian Now Chief of
Police; May End His Luxurious
Confinement.

San Francisco, Sept 15.-It is be-
lieved that Abraham Ruef will soon be
transferred to the city prison as a re-
suit of the appointment of Elisor
l3iggy as chief of police.
Judge Dunno decided yesterday that
the newly appointed chief should re-
main as ellsor In charge Of Ruef. de-
spite the added responsibilities of his
new position and, though neither
Judge Dunno or Chief Biggy would
state positively that any change would
be made concerning the disposition of
the one-time boss, the order made by
the court was equivalent to such IA
statement. #
Not only is II known that Judge
Dunno favors doing away with the
Fillmore street establishment at once
in order to effect a financial saving to
the city and at the same time put
Ruef on the plane of other prisoners,
but the demands on Biggy's time as
head of the police department posi-
lively will necessitate such step If
he is to maintain any sort of per-
sonal supervision over Ruef.

STATEHOOD
SPECIAL MEETING OF
TERRITORIAL COMMITTEE
Chairman Jones Desires Back
ing in His Stand Against
Proposed Constitutional Con
vention. n


Especial Dispatch to the Morning JOuFnaL1
Santa Fe, N. NJ Sept 15.---It Is
announced today that Chairman A. A.
Jones of the territorial democratic
committee will call meeting of that
committee to be held in Santa Fe
in the near future when the question
of the proposed constitutional con
vention will be taken up and a de-
cision reached as to the policy to be
followed out by the democratic party.
Mr.. Jones has already declared him
self as personally opposed to the call
ing of such a convention prior to any
action by congress and II is understood
that he expects a majority of the
committee to agree with his position
as expressing the attitude of the
party. In the meantime the statehood
convention is not moving very swiftly
to any understanding and 1t can be
said with certainty that Governor
Curry will no take action of any kind
either toward calling the delegates
elected last fall or to name new dele
gates until after his conference with
the president in st. Louis, early in
October The statehood matter may,
therefore, be expected to rest for a
week or two at any rate.

ANDREWS PROGNoSTICATION
DID NOT MAKE A HIT

For several days Santa Fe has been
full of prominent republican poiiti-
clans and numerous conferences have
taken place, some of which have been
of Importance and others Of not
such great significance. II can be
said with authority that the impress
sion created among prominent repub-
licans by the recent outbreak of en-
thusiasm on the part of Delegate w.
II. Andrews, has not won any great
favor. II is felt and freely expressed
that Andrews, If he felt such keen en-
thusiasm about The third term for Mr..
Roosevelt, should have been able TO
restrain his enthusiasm at least until
such a time as the president had ex-
pressed desire for the nomination.
should such time come afu that In
the meantime the delegates pronun-
ciamentO was either little bit previ-
Gus or very decidedly late. Mr.. An
drews' position among the leaders OF
the republican party may be just as
strong as II was prior to the last elec-
tion, but 1t does not seem so. In fact,i
there Is reason to believe that In the
minds of many of the quiet, far-see-
ing men. who make little noise and do
much work, there Is a feeling of shak-
mess about the late Andrews majority
and haunting fear that that maiori-
ty would rise up to haunt the party
should the gentleman from Pennsyl-
vania continue to bear the standard.
This feeling has not yet found express
sion but its presence Is apparent.
Decision In PcndletOn Case.
II Is understood that decision will
be rendered from the interior depart
ment within the next few days In the
case against Granville Pendleton Of
San Juan county, who was made to
stand disbarment proceedings. The
understanding here is that this decl-
sion is unfavOrable to Pendieton al
though no official announcement has
been made.
