San Francisco, March 19.-Astound-
ing revelations are said to have been
made before Mondays session of the
grand jury, which did not adjourn un-
til almost / o'clock this morning,
created a most profound sensation.
Few of the supervisors who are al
legged to have confessed or who are
under suspicion. slept last night, all
scurrying away to avoid the jam which
Heney is trying to sweep down upon
them.
1t Is freely predicted this morning
that some would attempt to get away
but w. ]. Burns and his corps Of
sleuths are maintaining relentless
shadowing and IL any of the men
against whom indictments are expect
ed, attempt to escape they will be
arrested.
Although the specific amount Of
money said to have been given the
supervisors and others reaches the
stupendous total of approximately
$4,000 the district attorneys Of
flee is confident that he will be able
TO show that bribes to the amount
OF more than s1,000,000 have been
passed.
Several attempts were made by su-
pervisor Crow to communicate with
Ruef after the grand jury adjourned,
but Elisor and Bigger would permit
no one to talk with the prisoner and
Ruef was practically in solitary con-
finement all night and the same re-
strictions were imposed by Elisor this
morning.
Hency Is Elated.
The grand jury decided not to hold
a session this morning, the foreman
ordering a postponemcnt until p.
m. when a great batch of indictments
was filed. The fact that indictments
would be returned this afternoon was
officially announced but the indict-
ments were against Ruef for agree
ing to accept a bribe.
Prosecutor Heney was at his iesk
early and while showing the effects
of the great strain he has been under
for months, he was plainly elated ever
the turn of events. He declined to
discuss the occurrences of Monday
and announced that from now on he
must decline to discuss his future
plans.
Fifteen Have Confessed.
Absolute confirmation of reports
in the morning parers were secured
this morning. 1t is asserted positive
" that 15 supervisors have confessed
and that among the indictments to be
returned this afternoon will be sew
eral against the officials of the Home
Telephone company.
while I.angdon would not affirm or
deny the statements that the super
yisors have confessed, he admitted
the undercurrent of truth in the re-
norts. Another who 1t Is said will fall
under ban of the grand jury Is I. "
Ualsey. of the Pacific States compa-
ny. from whom Supervisor Lonergan
is alleged to have confessed that ne
received $4,000 for vote.
Ruef spent night of horrors In his
sumptuous quarters at the ST. Fran
els. Cut off from his friends, he paced
the small room in an agony or douo'
and terror and for the first time since
his indictment and arrest he realized
the Seriousness of his predicament
Time and again he threw himself or
the bed in an effort to sleep. but after
n few moments of repose he woulo
lump from the bed and again begir
his ceaseless tramp. Elisor remained
in the room with him all night, fear
