PASSED, THREATENS
 TRAGEDY

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May s. - Francis !. IIeney, counsel for the prose cu,ion, and Henry Ach, for the de. fcnsc. clashed in the Rucf Parkside bribery trial today, the occasion being tne cross examination by Ach of James l.. Gallagher, chairman of the finance committee of the SchmitZ Board of Supervisors. The latter had told how he had acted as a go between for Ruef with the other members of the board, when the Parksidc franchise was be ing sought. This was in tne direct ea. animation.
 Acb worked upon the witness until Gallagher began to get confused. Then it was that Hcney remonstrated it was about time Ach desisted from putting into Gallagher's mouth words he had not uttered Ach replied it was Heney who was doing that. The lie passed from iIeney at this.
 "Put him in iail,' shouted Murpny,
  one of the attorneys for the defense. Words were flung back and forth, Mur. phy insisting that if Iieney would take his gun out of his pocket, he, Murphy would call lIeney liar. Hcney drop. ped his hands to his side menacingly and was pulled down into his seat by Detective Burns.
 Later trouble broke out again when Ach accused him, and Heney acknowl' edged he nad a gun in his pocket. He said an attempt had been made to as- sassinate another person connected with the proceedings by thugs, several of whom were then in the court room Ach, addressing the court, said he de sired to object to IIeney's statement before the jury. He declared Ruef had no one in his employ in the court ex eept his attorneys and office boy. IIcney declared ae had been receiv ing letters threatening his life, and handed one up to the court to be read He also stated that in coming into ans leaving the court room daily, he had been called vile names by persons n the corridors and sidewalks m front of the building.
 The court again admonished the at torneys, and Gallagher's cross exam ination was resumed. Later Heney ap |
 ologized to the court, but when he anc Acb met outside it looked as if tb' row might be resumed. Heney ssid Ach had accused him of hsilng witnes ses. The latter pail no attention t' the assistant district attorney.
