ARMED MEN GUARD
ARCH BOODLER RUFF
Police Garry Rifles and Reyolv-
ers to Prevent Raid on
County Jail
Prison Officials, Alarmed by
Excitement in City, Prepare
to Withstand Attack

While Norris Haas, the cowardly tool
of those who wanted the life of Francis
}. Heney, and who ended his miserable
existence last night by shooting him
self through the head, cringed in his
cell in the county Jail at IngIeside,
under the same roof with Abe Ruef, the
arch CRATER, a large force of police and
deputies from the sheriffs Office pa
troled the Jail grounds Yesterday to
prevent any crowd that might be
moved to dealing out summary justice.
All approaches to the Jail were care
fully guarded. Only recognized officers
of the law and newspapermen were al
lowed to enter the enclosure.
The intense excitement that prevailed
in all parts of the city caused the
guards grave concern. Fear was enter
tanned that the hatred and indignation
would culminate in the storming of the
Jail. No trouble, however, was expert
enced, and the prison officials expressed
the opinion that they were ready and
would be able to withstand any attack.
Chief of Police Biggy and Captain of
detectives Kelly arrived at the Jail late
in the afternoon. They talked with
many of the men stationed in the yard.
They refused to make public the result
of their interviews
Throughout the day Ruef was con-
hned in cell No. 161. in the east wing
OF the main building. No one was al
lowed to see Ruef during the day, even
MS attorneys being denied admission.
Late in the afternoon Ash and Dozier
were finally allowed a short conversa-
tlon over the telephone with their
client
Last evening a rumor was current in
the city that when Ruef goes into court
Monday morning he will plead guilty.
a note was sent to him in Jail asking
II those were his intentions He re-
Iused TO make any answer. Later he
| denied the story through his attorney,
Henry Ach.
Corporal Coulter. with force of
heavily armed men. patroled the
grounds of the Jail during the day.
rms force was relieved at o'clock in
the afternoon by a detachment of 25
picked men under the command of Ser
Seant Clay of the Mission police sta
ton. All the policemen were armed
with the latest model Colts rifles as
well as pistols. Besides the policemen
every guard at the jail was kept on
duty 10 hours, and they were all COM
peIled to remain inside the grounds
when their watches were completed. AT
midnight the force was relieved by an
other detachment. These precautions
against any violence will be continued
until next week.
There was great excitement at the
jail last night when report reached
there that Heney had succumbed to his
wounds and that various crowds were
gathering in the city

Poor Tools And
A Good Worker
That Is What Makes Indigestion, Dys
pepsia, Sour Taste, Foul Breath
and Catarrh

The stomach is a good strong vital
organ, which is constantly protecting
body
1t is the most abused. neglected and
scorned member OF man also. Most r1en
abuse their stomach with under-cOOked
food. high living, alcohol, tobacco,
pastries and scores Of other unhealthy
practices.
When the stomach at las. sickens OF
all this abuse and can not do its full
duty, most men are not warned but
keep up their assaults on the stomach
until at last it rebels and begins to
strike back and cry for help. Man by
his own abuse has taken away from
the stomach the tools 10 work with.
These tools are tho gastric juices
which go to make up the digestive
agents. From TO 80 lbs. OF gastric
juice are turned into the stomach every
day.
When poor. poisonous food consumes
this juice. dilutes it. rObs it OF its
strength and throws 1t. a fermented
mass, from the system, of course there
is just that much OF the gastric fluid
which can not be readily supplied by
the blood.
When food comes into a stomach
filled with depleted fluids lacking OF
power to do their part. the good strong
stomach is using poor tools and. OF
course, can not succeed in its work
A condition which often prevails IS
that which takes place when the
gastric juice contains too much alkali-
would not only devOUr and digest the
food. but would eat and digest the
stomach itself Such gastric fluid does
the digestion no good and attacks the
walls of the stomach making them
raw and sore anS setting I'D infiam-
nation and irritation.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will
strengthen a stolHach filed with poor
gastric juice. They will remove any
abnormal alkaline condition. allay irri-
tation. sweeten the breath. remove
catarrhal conditions and digest food no
matter how the stomach has acted
before.
These little tablets contain an IN
gredient. one grain Of which will digest
perfectly 5000 grains Of food. They
will digest an entire meal placed in a
jar without the aid Of any other force

ever. supplied the missing pictures,
and in very pointed way explained
the reason for their nOnappearance In

pie. What are you going to do about
it?-San Francisco News Bureau.
The shooting OF Assistant District
Attorney Francis ]. Heney yesterday Is
the most serious event that has as yet
occurred in connection with the prose-
cution of the gang of criminals COM
monty known as the grafters. One
serious phase Of the affair is that Mr..
Heney is a county official. and was act
ing in his official capacity for the peO-
pie at the time he was shot. Another
matter of great Importance is the i'm
probability of purely personal motives
in the attempted murder 1t is we'll
known that the grafteTs are in des-
perate state. They are beginning TO
realize that the prosecution has been
steadily gaining ground lately. and
that the tide OF public sentiment has
again swung round against them. The
previous record of the grafters is such
that the public has a right 10 suspect
them, and it will require very strong
evidence to dislOdge this idea from the
minds of most people. The matter of
the punishment Of the would be mur-
derer is of secondary Importance. He
viii no doubt be speedily placed be-
hind the bars of San Quentin. The
motive for his act must be discovered
and this can only be done by the
united support of all good citizens to
the graft prOsecution.-San Francisco.

.HFN[Y WARNED BY
MYSTERIOUS FRIEND

The strongest possible confirmation
of the theory that the shooting down
of Heney was the elimination of q
devilish plot came to light in a star
Ting manner yesterday through the
opening Of an anonymous letter writ
ten to the prosecutor on Monday OF
last week, and that lay on his desk
unopened till yesterday.
BE on your guard and watch fol
startling developments" said the writer
of the letter. Unfortunately the well
meant advice never reached the man
for whom it was intended. The letter
was as follows:
Mr.. Francis j. Heney, City
Dear Sir; Have Detective Burns
look carefully and continually after
A. Ruef. BE on your guard during
the trial and watch for startling
developments. i know whereof
speak. Pardon me for not signing
my name, but will let you know
Inter on.
A FRIEND OF THE PROSECUTION.
The letter was opened by Charles
Cobb, Heney's law partner. 1t had been
on Heney's desk along with other mail
he had not found time to attend to
since Tuesday or Wednesday.
District Attorney Langdon desires to
urge the writer of the letter to come
forward and divulge upon what ~in-
formation he based his remarkably apt
warning to Heney. Langdon says he
would not be surprised if highly i'm
portant revelations resulted. Many hun
dreds OF anonymous letters have been
received by the members of the graft
prosecution in the last IS months, the
district attorney says, and investiga-
tions have shown that in nine cases out
of ten the writers of the letters knew
what they were speaking about. A
letter to Langdon from an unknown
even SO late as yesterday. though not
bearing on the shooting of Heney. may
lead to important disclosures In con-
nection with the graft situation.
Langdon made public yesterday the
fact that after the first Gallagher dyna-
hitting outrage, but before the second.
an anonymous letter was addressed to
himself, Spreckels, Heney and Burns,
which, read in the light of later events,
pointed strongly to the Claudianes
brothers. In the letter warning was
given that certain men were concerned
in an attempt to put important wit
nesses out of the way, and also to de-
stroy the chief prosecutors. Langdon
was advised to go to certain places and
see certain people. He did so and Sc
cured information which, although not
sufficient to trace the real offenders at
that time, was of value to him. The
letter Informed Langdon that two
Greeks were engaged in the dastardly
word All the statements in the letters
were afterward found to be essentially
correct
every way with the district attorney.
That's the way you co operate, is it?'
demanded Langdon. You allow a con-
dition to exist, or order 1t to exist.

The little animal catne back for the third time before one of the boys in camp succeeded in killing It. The hydrophobia skunk combines the vllliany of the rattlesnake, the disgusting appearance of the tarantula, and the vicious biting powers of the Gila Monster, and is as friendless as a coyote. MT.
