Detective Burns is preparing to examine AKridge, the special jailor, who was detailed to watch Haas and who failed to prevent hts suicide. More than anything else; IiurnB will endeavor to find out why he was not permitted to see Haas just prior to his suicide. Burns intimates that the outcome of his Investigation will be charges against Chief of Police Biggy, who will be asked why he gave out the statement declaring that the attempt to assassinate Heney was not the result of a conspiracy. Burns be lieves that the derringer with which Haas killed himself was passed to him by his wife, who visited him at the jail a few hours before. Uiggy Insists, however, that Haas carried the gun concealed in his elastic hose supporters when he entered the cell and that Capt. Duke failed to search him closely enough to find It. Duke says thiB Is untrue, Haas Suicide. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15. Mor ris Haas, who yesterday attempted to assassinate F. J. Heney, last night committed suicide by shooting him self through the middle of his fore head with a pistol he had concealed about his person. Haas went to bed at 8 o'clock at the county jail and covered up his face with a blanket. At 8:40 a shot was heard from his cell, and when the guards entered, it was found that he had rolled out of bed and was lying dead on the door with a bullet hole in his forehead. A 41-callbre single-shot derringer was grasped in his hand. His left trouser leg was pulled up and examination showed a mark on his leg where the weapon had rested while concealed in his left shoe. Haas wore gaiters with elastic sides, which rifht fool by Halt SchaAbe it Mart WE'VE BEEN TREATING PE6PLE SAUARE GOODS ESTABLISHMENT made this possible. After he had Bbot Mr. Heney yes terday, Haas was searched by Police Captain Duke. Detective Burns and a police officer. After he had been taken to the county jail he was again searched, but at neither time were his shoes examined. Haas went to bed laBt night with his shoes on and again tonight, and when he was asked why he did this said that he would rather Bleep with them on. His wife called on hi in today, but two officers were present during the interview, and they say she could not possibly have slipped the weapon to him. It is reported tonight by District Attorney Langdon that Haas made a confession today and named the peo ple who hired him to shoot Mr. Heney, but Mr. Langdon declares he will not divulge the names.
