lice. When Follceman Klaber ap
proached the station Deckard fled to
his house near by, and barricaded
himself. When Klaber went to the
house Deckard shot and instantly

San Francisco, Nov. 19. Francis
J. Honey, who has gained national
fame as the prosecutor of the graft
eases in this city, and who has been
mentioned for Attorney Crucial l:i
Taft's Cabinet, was shot in the head
by Morris Haas, a saloonkeeper, In
Judge Lowlor's courtroom In a rceeis
in the third trial of Abraham ilm f
on a chargo of bribery. Haas press "d
a revolver against Honey's right
cheek, and the bullet lodged under
the left car. It missed the carotid
artery by a quarter of an Inch. The
brain was not touched, and it Is be
lieved Heney will recover.
John O'Gara, the nEststnnt prose
cutor, got down on his knees and
bent over the wounded num. Heney
had his hands on his face. He look.'d
at O'Gara and said :
"I want to make a dylns state

I was sitting at my table when I tv'.t
what I thought was u blow. I do
not know who shot me. 1 was doing
nothing to any one." At thlH point
Heney caught for breath. Ho seem
ed to gather strength for a moment
and he added, "No, I'm not dying.
I'm going to live."
"I will live to prosecute Haas and
Ruef."
The shooting created tremendous
excitement throughout the city. It
took a dozen policemen to save Haas
from lynching in the courtroom.
Judge Lawlor from the bench shout
ed lnvnln for order. Immediately
after the shot was fired Haas was
thrown on bis back Into the vacant
Jury box, and he was being kicked
there when the policemen came to
tLe rescue. At first it was thought
Heney had been killed. He slipped
from a chair to the floor, and was
unconscious for half an hour. Haas
was filled wtlh vengeful hatred be
cause Heney had exposed him as a
convict. At the second trial of Ruef
on a charge of bribery Haas was a
Juror. The trial had been In progress
for several days when Heney drama
tically produced a photograph of
Haas as a convict In San Quentln
penitentiary, In convict garb, with a
cropped head and with his number
across his breast. He was immedi
ately discharged from the Jury, and
he left the courtroom vowing ven
geance upon the prosecutor.
Immediately after the shoot Ins
Judge Lawlor, against the protests of
Ruef's attorneys, ordered Ruef into
custody regardless of the fact that
he has been at liberty under the rec
ord breaking bail of $1,500,000.
Ruef was hurried from the court
room to the county Jail and there Is
a double guard around the building.
With the temper of the city at its
