Probably False Report.

The report which was current
during the week to the effect
that Rodd Manning son of Mr..
and Mrs. Tim Manning Of this
city was killed up in Northern
Minnesota some time ago seems
to be an unfounded rumor. J.
D. Manning has spent several
days making an Investigation of
the affair, visiting great many
towns on the Range and has
been unable to find any record
of any such a man being killed.
While he was unable to locate
his brother it is expected that
the parents will soon hear from
him and that he is alive and we'll.

thus causing a serious damage TO the
company's property. hoping thereby to
bring eensure upon the ca-mens
union. There Vas also associated with
Mcdonald in this enterprise one J. c.
Brown, who was also connected with
Luther Browns office and his dastardIy
schemes. j. C. Brown is the man who
attempted to kidnap ex-Supervisor
Lonergan, and was aided by a man
named Doriand of Chicago. I'm
mediateIy after that fiasco J. c. Brown
and Dorland left the city. E T. New
some was taken before the grand jury
in the matter after he had made a full
disclosure of the entire scheme TO Mr.
Heney at my suggestion. 1t is also
known that Luther Brown went to Jim
McDonald's house, at Newman, Cal.
and paid him a large sum OF money
I think $4,000. We fully believed that
Ruef was cognizant of this conspiracy,
and our suspicious were confirmed dur
ing an interview with Ruef at the Of
fee OF District Attorney Langdon in
January. 1908, when / charged Ruef
with knowledge of 1t. He denied it.
but stated that "all 1 know about the
kidnapping scheme is that some time
during the fall of 1907 1 received
letter from a young lady sympathizing
with me In my predicament and asking
that she could. Subsequently she did
call, and also sent me flowers. She
called a number OF times. and then I
had her followed, and learned that she
went TO the Majestic Annex. where
Kidnaper Dorland, the fake magazine
writer, was then stopping" thus ad-
mittting a knowledge of this matter
and yet failed to communicate same to
us.
One of the reasons that Mr.. Heney
refused to deal with Henry Ach in re-
lation to immunity when Ruef first
suggested his name was. as I under
stood ii. because had told Heney that
had learned that Henry Ach, subse-
quent TO the fire. approached a police
commissioner and made the PROPOSE
tion that If the police commissioner
would deny a license TO Carl Leon
hardt, proprietor OF the Casino. Twen-
ty-fourth and Fulton streets. that he
had a friend who would purchase the
place and they would run all kinds Of
gambling. and that he weuld declare
the commissioner in for a quarter in
terest, and that the commissioners de-
clined the proposition.
On one occasion, at 2s3s Fillmore
street. just after Ruef had pleaded
guilty in the extortion case. Ach stat
ed to me that he could have won the
extortion case. and that it was his pur-
pose TO pursue the tactics he had al
ready CONNIE enced, and carry on a sys-
tenn Of delay; and that they had their
minds made up to in every way possi-
BILE irritate and anger Judge Dunno. in
the hope and belief that thereby the
judge would commit errors. Affiant
further AYERS that after Ruefs plea of
guilty he heard Henry Ach state, in
substance, as follows: 'sRuef Is the
