When Informed that bis assailant, Haas, had taken his life at the coun ty Jail, Mr. Heney said: “It Is too bad he did It before giv ing hla reason toy shooting me." The suicide of Haas wag tho sub ject of much discussion today and tho police were engaged In trying to as certain how he waa able to conceal the pistol with which he took his Ufa. Two theories were advanced. One wus that he had the pistol hidden In his a-ioe from the time he attempted to kll My. Heney and that It waa over looked by the police. The other the ory Is that the pistol was passed to Haas while ho was In conference with his wife and the police guard.

Mr. Herbert F. Haley haf a horse for which there seems to be a faxclnatlc among the porters of h!s establishment. Some time ago a porter took the horse and the buggy out, and the night waa spent driving all over the county. He could be heard from in all directions. They said he was out at Cross Keys, but Just for a moment. Then It came In that he was skinning past Seven Bridges with hla girl. Then tne news was brought In that he wag over In Clinton. Then It waa flashed over tho wire that ho waa headed for Forsyth. Rut at any rate, he made a night ot It with the horse and buggy. The man was Anally caught, con victed and fined, possibly sent to ths gang. At any rata he was put.iahed. Now It turns out that another porter, possibly not knowing the fate that over took the other man. took the same ~ out early yesterday morning and gone all day. Mr. Haley had given out that he would leave the city yesterday, and the porter evidently thought him and of oourf thought he would for the horse and buggy, and ess dav oa yesterday. * The police were notified, and In the ■cly pace, still thinking, that Mr. Haley waa out of town, »na was arrested and locked up. Will told the officers that he merely rode out Into the country to get a regular old-fashioned country breakfast, and of course was coming right back, but he waa Invited to stay for dinner, and as the horae and buggy was not In use on Sunday, he might as well stay, and stay hedid. He will tell the recorder about It this morning, and probably express regrets for having been mistaken about Mr, Ha ley being awny. EASY MARK’S TROUBLE WITH IN HE.
