SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. io. The
question Of how Haas, Heney's
would-be assassin obtained Or con
eeaIed the derringer with which de
committed suicide in his cell in the

principal aspect Of the inquiry today
at the coroner's inquest. The dis
sension and bitter feeling between

flected in the testimony given. The

received the weapon after Haas had
been imprisoned while the police are
most positive that Detective Burns
and Captain Duke, the only police
man who sides with the prosecution,
overlooked the derringer in their
search in the courtroom. While adj
hitting he did not search Haas
shoes, Cptain Duke said on the stand
that he thoroughly examined Haas
clothing and felt around his ankles.
He asserted with great positiveness
that II the weapon had been ii eth

Detective Burns testified to having
made thorough search of Haas. He
admitted, however. that he did not
search Haas shoes. believing it would
be done later when the prisoner ar
rived at jail. Burns told Of an at
tempt Of Policemen Attridge and
