SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16. The
bullet embedded in Francis J. llen
ey's jaw, about an Inch in front
of the ear, wbb removed this morn
ing, and the patient's condition Is
greatly improving. The operation was
performed by Dr. Wallace Terry,
chief of the emergency service, and
its success caused a general feeling
of relief. Mrs. Honey has not left
the hospital cince her husband was
taken there.
Heney was able to hold a long con
ference with District Attorney Lang
don today.
Ask Change of Venue.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16. Al
leging that their client's life is not
safe in San Francisco and that "the
ller'C and burning prejudice that ex
ists makes it impossible to secure a
fair trial in this city," Ruef's attor
neys asked for a change of venue
when the trial was resumed this
morning under heavy cuard. In
Heney 's place as assistant to District
Attorney Langdon were Attorneys
Matt I. Sullivan and Hiram W. John
son. The attorneys for the defense
asked for the discharge of the jury,
wblcn required ti weens 10 secure.
The prosecution asked fw time in
which to file affidavits in opposition
to a change of venue. This was

granted until tomorrow morning, af
ter which adjournment waB taken.
In their affidavit, the attorneys for
the defense say that Borne of the
jurors heard the shot fired at Heney
by Haas, and by reason of this could
not give Ruef a fair trial. They also
declared that he bad been threatened
over the telephone with lynching.
As expected, the courtroom was
overcrowded with spectators, who
were raiJed off by a stout fence. When
adjournment was declared, Ruef was
returned to jail, guarded by nine"
detectives.
Hums Gets Busy.
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

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.
