AT A STANDSTILL.
The Walker Case Cannot be
Tried Next Month.
Chief Justice Baker Issues a Writ
of Prohibition Restraining
Judge Rouse.

An important step was taken yester-
day in the famous Walker case, by the
filing of suit in the supreme court by
Juana Walker, the reputed daughter of
John D. Walker, against Judge Rouse
of the second judicial district. 1t was
an application for an alternative writ OF
prohibition. The writ was issued by
Chief Justice Baker and the matter will
come up for hearing at the January
term OF supreme court.
The case of Juana Walker against the
brothers of John D. Walker was tried
in The probate court of Pinal county last
July and verdict was found for the
plaintiff. This verdict affected only
the relation of the plaintiff to the es-
tate and not that of the widow of Walk
er whose case is now pending in the
supreme court. A. J. Doran, who had
been administrator of the estate, was
removed and was succeeded by P. R.
Brady. The defense moved for a new
trial which was denied and an appeal
was sought to be taken and bond was
filed.
Until this time the plaintiff had been
represented by Messrs. McCabe and
Bethune of Tempe, Judge Woodward Of
this city and Judge Henley of San
Francisco. At this point Messrs. Fitch
& Campbell entered the case and mo-
ton was filed to dismiss the appeal on
the ground of the >insufficiency of the
bond. 1t was alleged that it was insult
fcient both In substance and amount
and that while the court could permit
a remedy of the latter defect it was
powerless to permit it to be corrected
as to the former, the time in which a
new bond could be filed having already
expired.
Judge Rouse, to whom the appeal
had been taken, however, refused to
dismiss the appeal and the case was set
for trial on December IS OF this year.
The purpose of the applicants for the
writ was to prevent the trial of the case
at that time, and now that the writ has
been issued no action can be taken till
the January term of supreme court
when Judge Rouse will be required to
show cause why he should not be for.
ever prohibited from tryingit. Should
the supreme court decide to make the
prohibition perpetual, the celebrated
case will have come to an end in the
probate court of Pinal county.
The writ is said to be the first one
issued in this territory. 1t is re
garded as an unusual and extreme
legal remedy resorted to only when an
inferior court is alleged to have threat
ened to exceed its jurisdiction.

INVESTORS COMING.

Indications That the Financial Cur
rent Is Turning Toward Phoenix.
A. E. Pierce, secretary of the Denver
Phoenix Land and Improvement COM
pany, who is we'll remembered by the
citizens of Phoenix as the man who last
winter purchased several valuable
properties here, among which was the
Wormser property opposite the Lemon
hotel on Washington street, sends the
following interesting letter to Hon. j.
A. Fleming, territorial treasurer:
"DENvER Colo, Nov. 20, 1898.
"Mr. Jas. A. Fleming, Phoenix, Ariz.
"FRIEND FLEMlNG-Y ours of the 18th
at hand. Am glad to learn that the
outlook is improving at Phoenix and
that there is proba bility of pushing
work on the north and south road
Hope things will liven up this winter.
Ali the talk here is of Phoenix and the
gold fields of Arizona. Orr Legee with
a party of seven expects to start any
day for the mines between Phoenix and
Prescott. They intended to 60 to Pres
colt to outfit but | have persuaded them
that Phoenix is better point and they
will 60 there.
sc. W. Drake and Bob Colder, who
have been waiting to go with me, will
start today for California and return by
Phoenix, meeting me there. They will
spend some time at Phoenix and look
the whole country over with view of
locating. E. G. Kinney will 60 with
me and expects to remain indefinitely.
A. B. Moulton expects to 90 when l do.
Fred Nance has gone on ahead but ex-
poets to stop several places before
reaching there. l have been delayed
by business matters bat hope to get off
not later than next Saturday or Sunday.
Probably the delay is just as we'll since
there is not much doing in real estate
as yet.
ut seems to me that Phoenix is not
doing the amount of advertising now
that she should. There is a restless
feeling all over the country, east and
west, and no other place is attracting
the attention that the Salt River valley
is. 1t seems to me that if lively cam
paign was opened up right away good
deal of capital and large immigration
could be attracted to the valley this
winter. Every man that comes in, IN
less he is tramp, brings some money
with him and every dollar put into Cir
culation helps the entire community.
You cannot benefit one without in some
measure benef 5ting all. For my part l
have great and abiding faith in the
future of Phoenix, the valley and of the
whole territory. Fortunes will be built
up there as they have IN Colorado, and
only wish that l were about 10 or 20
years younger and could profit by past
experience. Phoenix must have new
blood, few more men OF enterprise
like you, for instance, and then progress
will rapidly be made"
Yours Truly,
A. E. PIERCE.

tested in attempts to play with her tail,
all of which the hen tries to appreciate
