opened.
COURT ORDERS SILENCE
Now that will do sharply ordered
the court.

less your honor will do something more
than warn them it won't do at all.
warning does not do any good There
has been six months of it and still these
things continue. No one of them dares
to use such language to me outside of
court"
A A. Moore took a hand in matters
with suggestion that Heney should
be reprimanded for his last remark.
Nobody paid any attention to him, how
ever, and after finally quelling the
disturbance Judge Lawlor gave one
last warning and ordered that the case
proceed.
Il have tried to discourage this he
said in answer to Heney's complaint.
-and l don't believe it will occur again.

There was no other open clash during
the day. but the bad blood existing be-
tween Heney and Rogers found an OUT
let in a number of angry glances and
just before adjournment there was a
final passage at arms between them
that did not find its way into the record
and that was only overheard by those
sitting close to them at the counsel
tables Rogers was objecting to a ques-
ton asked by Heney of the witness
Coleman. arguing that certain matters
which Heney referred to had already
been covered by the testimony
challenge YOU to prove your as
sertion," answered Heney. 'I have
reason to know that this matter was
not contained in the record"
Judge Lawlor started to rule upon
the point in controversy. and as he
began TO speak Rogers stepped CLOSE
to Heney's side, leaned over to him. and
referring to Heney's last statement.
muttered:
Don't you talk to me in that man

HENEY Is READY
'rll meet you any time you say" re-
torted Heney promptly.
"Ail right Mr.. Heney," snapped
Rogers. but after our public duties
and our duties to our clients have been
completed"
The incident was not lost upon those
near the attorneys. but all that had
passed had been said in an undertone
and was heard by only one or two.
Judge Lawlor had noticed the action
which accompanied the challenge and
counter challenge and stopped in his
own remarks.
What was that exchange?" he asked
There was no answer to. his ques-
tions and after waiting a moment in
silence he passed the matter over. So
ended the last chapter in a day of
quarrels.
was devoted to a lengthy argument
over the objection made by the de-
fense to the admission of testimony
concerning the relations existing be-
tween Ruef and Gallagher prior to
the time the members elect of the
Schmitz- -Ruef board of supervisors ac-
tually took office. The argument
hinged on the effort of the defense to
keep out of the record testimony to
disprove the claim that Calhoun was
held up, and the outcome was a victory
for the prosecution. The questions
propounded by Heney were allowed,
and il was shown that Gallagher and
Ruef discussed matters relating to the
possible payment of bribes before the
other members of the board ever heard
of them.
The recrosseXamination OF Gallagher
by A A. Moore was very brief, and at
4 o'clock the witness was finally ex-
cused from the stand Daniel G. Cole
man was the next witness called, and
his direct examination, covering the
same general ground as that of Gala
CHER, was concluded by O'Gara in less
than half an hour. Heney also asked
several questions of the witness and
then turned him over to Rogers, who
began the crossexamination. This will
be continued this morning.
