RUFF Is IN JAIL.
1t Is Now Confidently Believed That
Heney Will Recover.

San Francisco, Cal, Nov. IA
Francis ]. Heney, who was shot down
in the court room yesterday while
conducting the prosecution of Abra
ham Ruef, will recover from the eff
fects of his injury unless the predic-
tions of his physicians fail. AT the
end of an anxious night in the Lane
hospital where his wife, and several
relatives awaited the first news of a
change in his condition it was report
ed that he had displayed symptoms
most favorable; that he had slept
long and we'll and that there had been
no recurrence of the nausea that last
night followed the shock and pain of
his wound.
His intimate associates united in the
belief that the indomitable energy
that has characterized his work as
prosecutor in this city and elsewhere
would contribute toward his recovery
and in this the attending physicians,
while speaking guardedly. appeared
to concur Morris Haas, the excon-
Wet and former liquor dealer, who
fired bullet into Heney's head, spent
a sleepless night in a cell at the
county jail which was guarded
against mob violence by special de-
tachment of thirty police officers
armed with rifles. Three detectives
stood watch at the bars of the cell
watching the prisoner closely through
out the night lest he attempt suicide.
The watchers reported that Haas. af
ter several times composing himself
for sleep, gave up the attempt and
spent the early morning hours
gloomy meditation. In the same
building. though in a different section
of the jail, Abraham Ruef spent the
night, in custody for the first time in
several months.
Ruef was incarcerated by order of
Superior Judge Lawler Immediately
after the shooting. The judge avail
ing himself of a privilege conferred
by statute in case of urgency, explain
ed that he deemed it wisest to remove
the defendant in the pending trial
from the sphere of possible violence.
Although the period of excitement
following the attempt upon Mr.. Hen
ey's life lasted far into the night in
creasing momentarily as the news
spread and the crowds gathered and
although Incorporate speeches were
made and rash counsel was given in
some instances, while tenn Ders were
at white heat, there was reported to
the police not a single attempt at vio-
Ience. That Haas should have escaped
even minor injury in the court rooms
at the hands of the 200 persons in
fiuenced by every slant of prejudice,
belief and opinion. is considered a re-
markable testimonial of the efficiency
of the police department and the adj
mirable self control exercised by the
citizens present.
The day is likely to bring forth
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1908-11-14

This was first apparent in the Repub-
lican national convention, when he
guessed within two votes of Taft's ma
jority in the convention.
Again in the elections just passed
Hitchcock stated in his authentic-way
that Taft would receive 325 electoral
votes. With Missouri safely in the Re
publican columns, he has 319. Mary
land has eight votes and if these are all
Republican he will have 327
The question arises as to whether this
is due to some good fortune or his
grasp on the situation and it is I'M
doubleday the latter.
No man is a closer follower of de-
tails than Hitchcock. He has been
termed the card Index chairman.
This is not literally so, as is generally
thought, but figuratively it is, for he
follows almost each voter in each state
and his predictions are not guesswork,
but the knowledge based on facts.

BLOOD POISON FEARED.
Heney Passed Very Good Night at
the Hospital.

San Francisco. Cal, Nov. 14.-At
4:45 this morning the Lane hospital
authorities said:
MIR. Heney has passed very good
night. He has slept a considerable
portion of the time and is resting as
easy as could be expected.
While a body of 80 policemen arm
ed with rifles, guarded the approaches
to the Jail during the night, the ex-
element of the early evening, when
muttering crowds gathered about the
city prison and the court room where
the would be murderer was being in
terrogated, subsidized, and there was no
attempt at a demonstration reported
from any quarter. An unbroken
streamof inquiries. as to Mr.. Heney's
condition poured into the hospital
during the night, however. At the
newspaper offices men fingered for
hours to read bulletins and await the
coming of the first papers from the
presses.
The news that Heney had been shot
spreadlike wild fire through the city
even before the extra editions of the
papers reached the residence sections
and people in every walk of life hur-
ried to swell the crowds in the down
town district. Few of those in the
street knew what disposition had been
made of Haas, who was spirited out
of rear door of the city prison while
the crowds stood in front, and driven
by circuitous route to the distant
county Jail. Another subterfuge en-
abled the officers to take Ruef out of
the court without attracting attention.
Assassin's Record.
Morris Haas, the man who shot
Heney, is a native of Wurtemburg,
Germany, and has resided here since
1876. He is As years of age and for
nearly 10 years or ever since his re-
lease from the penitentiary when he
served two year sentence for en-
bezzlement of his employers funds,
he has been engaged in the retail
liquor business.
Prior to his committal to San
Quentin prison in 1883, Haas was
given employment as travelling
salesman by Schlesiger & Green,
wholesale cigar merchants of this
city. On his first trip he was given
accounts aggregating $4,000 for col
lection and the testimony showed that
he turned in two fictitious orders The
collection of $275 in San Bernardino,
Cal. for which no accounting was
ever made led to a warrant for his ar
rest on a charge of embezzlement.
Haas had disappeared before the
embezzlement became known and

perfected for the mass meeting to-
night called by the citizens league of

quickened prosecution of the men

Tol<io Believes Him Dead.

Toxic, Nov. I'm this city the
report of the death of the emperor of
China is generally accepted as true.
The news of his passing is. accompan-
led by rumor that the empress dow
ager is also dead and while this is not
given general credence, it is under
stood that she has been seriously i'll
for several weeks.
The Associated Press has excellent
grounds for believing that the situa-
ton in China, in the event of the
dowager's death will not be made the
occasion of any summary move on the
part of Japan, but that the Japanese
government will await an agreement
of all the powers.
1t may be said that it is not Jap
ans intention in the event of disorder
or REORGANIZATION in Chinese territory
to take any step whatsoever until
there has been a consultation of all
the interested nations and until
course satisfactory to all has been de-
termined upon.
Whatever may develop Japan has
determined that there shall be laid at
her door no charge of bellicose or ag-
gressive action. This may be regard
ed as absolute and authoritative In
all circles the situation is eagerly
discussed The Associated Press has
been given to understand that there
is fair possibility of avoiding any
trouble with China if the new en-
peror is accepted and approved by the
nation prior to the death of the dow
ager.
All the newspapers here are pub
fishing extras dealing with the pos
sibilities of the Chinese situation.
