Trial on Other Indict-

Once--SceneS at COnvic-
ton Sentence Today

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 11.--Abra-
ham Ruef. who was convicted on the
charge of bribery after trial last
ing three and half months, will be
arraigned for sentence tomorrow be-
fore Judge Lawler.
Whether or not sentence will be
pronounced at this session OF the
court will not be determined until
the defense has announced its inten-
tions. The case will certainly be APP
pealed and 1t will require some time
to prepare the bill of exceptions.
The prosecution has announced
that Ruef will be tried again within
"a short time ON one of the scores of
indictments still pending against
him. The next trial will be conduct
ed by Mr.. Heney.
Ten minutes before the verdict was
rendered by the jury in the present
case. Mr.. Heney had been driven
away from Carpenters hall in an au-
tomobile Notwithstanding the pres.
ence of score of officers, who did
all they could to restrain the demon

court room, men and women rose

and detectives interfered

when the verdict was returned. HE
had spent the greater part of the
day in conversation with his aged
parent, and though his face paled
and his eyes remained fixed for 2
long time upon the men who had pro
nounced his fate, almost his first
thought was for the elder Mr.. Ruef
He whispered few words of encour
agement TO the old man, and sent
him out of the room. with directions
to break the news to the defendant's
mother and sisters
The warnings of Judge Vim. p

lice checked all attempted demon

the court room was SO intense that
