Judge Dunno Will Impanel Jury
to Try Abe Ruef.
WILL BEGIN WORK TODAY
Only One Event Can Now Delay Trial,
Says Heney--Rusf 10 Refused Bail
Prosecution Will press Defsnse's
Appeal.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 12.-If the
expectation of the assistant District
Attorney Heney Is realized, the i'm
panelling Of the jury to try Abe Ruef
for extortion will be begun In Judge
Dunne's court tomorrow. Ruefs ap-
pllcation for bail was today refused
by Judge Dunno and his counsel then
applied for relief to the state Su-
preme Court. The Chief Justice how
ever told a representative Of the As
sociated Press, that It Is not likely
action will be taken in the matter be-
fore Thursday
Heney said tonight he knew Of on
ly one event that could further delay
the trial and that would be In case
Judge Dunno should declare himself
to be an unfair Judge to try Ruef.
An important move was made today
by the prosecution. Ruef has not yet
perfected an appeal to the federal
supreme court for permanent writ
of error prohibiting Judge Dunno from
further hearing Of the Ruef case, as
he has sixty days In which to do 1t.
The prosecution therefore perfected
Ruefs appeal and today notified
the supreme court at Washington that
on March 25 attorney McKenney of
that city will move the court to docket
and dismiss the appeal on the ground
that the supreme court has no juris.
diction, there being no federal ques-
tion involved.
