 IN FRISCO Attorneys In Calhoun Trial Are Becoming IPrItated TALK ABOUT GUN FIGHTERS
Charge That Heney Is Capi- talizing the Attempt On His Life--Judge Lawlor Suggests Jail Restraints For Counsel.

San Francisco, Cal, Feb. 19-Reviv-
 Ing his attempted assassination last
 November, Francis J. Heney today
 charged that Henrs- Ach, attorney for
 Abraham Ruef, knew of the intention
 of Morris Haas to shoot the prosecutor | The accusation was flung at the at
 torneys for the defense during the
 course of one of the most heated eX- changes that has occurred during the trial of Patrick Calhoun, and before
 the session assumed it's usual calm complexion Judge Lawlor threatened two belligerent attorneys with impris- onment in the county jail. There were references to ammed gun men, to the use of dynamite, and to the prospects of Imprisonment before the court suc- ceeded in inducing both sides to lay aside the immediate basis of disagree ment and cease their objectionable ref erences. AdOlphu s. Hubbard, an elderly talesman, whose time is occu- pied by his fraternal association duties. was under examination when the stormiest outbreak of the trial oc- cured

 'I don't know it. and I don't believe it." said the -talesman

 ffXNa don't Iika fhat fnrv, nf nation, and we must object" inter- posed Assistant District Attorney He ney
 A. A. Moore took immediate objec- tion to Heney's tone. saying: "A few days ago Heney. in the course of the examination Of Sam Leake, turned to the attorneys at this table and said that he has established a line over which no man dared to pass in the future. Are we to understand that his retainers with sword and pistol will endeavor to maintain that line? He ney. in my estimation, has ben in the habit of bulldOzing jurors and per sisted in accusing us of engaging in that practice. He is in such a posi- tion that it ought 0 be said of him: Thou sayest such undisputed things in such a solemn way"
 Heney at this point arose to remon- strate. Addressing the court, he said: If the defense will produce any wit ness who will take the stand and tes- tify to matters derogatory to my char acter I will promise not to interrupt, nor will I make any objection during any argument where my name is men, tioned. But Heney is not on trial here, and he does not propose to be tried during the trial of Patrick Calhoun. I have taken more insults during the past six months than l will ever take again For all that time I stood for the aubse of Henry Ach, and I am satisfied Henry Ach had personal beforehand that Morris Maas intended to kill me Hereafter I do not intend that any reflections shall be cast upon me. My character is not at issue here, nor do I conceive that Burns or Langdon have been put on trial. Now, I think that this is an occasion where we may understand one and for my part, I'll promise not to indulge in any side remarks"
 A. A. Moore. of the defense. made reply to Heney's address, saying: "Heney makes the mistake of creating men of straw, and blowing them over. He says in a bellicose way, he won't permit this, and he won't permit that, but I doubt if we are obliged to regard his prohibitions If we should attempt to show that Hene- entered into i'm protant relations involved in the grant of immunity we might be accused of to villify, and if he is going to be the judge of villification, is he to be allowed to turn loose his gun fighters on us'
 Heney raised his voice to say: "No one has been d-namited or shot on your side of the case up to this time, and you mag be sure we don't hire people for that purpose"
 Judge I.awlor directed more to re- sume his seat, and when the attorney asked, (Which seat?" the court, with ,ascerbity, said: If you at tempt to act flippantly toward this court, you will occupy a seat in the county iail."
 Judge Lawlor informed the attorneys that he had given them more than the usual measure of liberty during the trial, and while he did not wish to ap- pear in the capacity of a pedagogue a school of boys, he would not tolerate any further breaches of decorum. Almost before the court fin ished, Mir Moore charged that Heney was attempting to exploit his shoot ing. Heney sprang to his feet and be- h a directed him to resume his seat.
 There are times when Heney does
