A WOMAN IN THE CASE.
Young Orr Finds His Way Into
 Jail at Last.
Arrested Yesterday Morning on An other Charge of Issuing a
 Fraudulent Check.

L. II. Orr. the gay son of milton air bank president and oil operator of Ohio, succeeded in worming his way into the county jail yesterday morning. Another warrant was issued for his arrest by Justice Kincaid for the same kind of an offense for which he was arrested the day before. The complainant was Selim Michaelson, manager of the Palace cigar store, who charges that on January 19 he cashed for Orr worthless check on the Phoenix National bank. The young pIupger must have been in 1 urgent need of money on that particular day, for that was the date of the $200 check cashed by c. w. Greenleaf. Orr was taken before the justice and waived all proceedings preliminary to his examination. which was set for next Wednesday,. His bond was placed at $500. He sent a case, a gentleman of wealth who had been induced to offer bail on account of his acquaintance with and friendship for the young mans father. The gen. tleman, however, recognized a mo- notony in the demands upon his gen erosity and declined 10 act any further. Orr was brought before Justice John- stone in the Greenleaf case, but he hearing was continued also to next Wednesday, the date of examination before Justice Kincaid in the Michael son matter.
 The bond of the day before also ex- pired yesterday morning, the date of hearing, and it was not renewed. Orr | therefore went to jail in default of $750 bail.
 There is woman in the case though it does not appear that she IS in any way responsible for his crimes though she does stand in the way of any im- i mediate assistance from the elder Orr. Her name ie Cora Wilkinson. Her home is at Colum bus, o. She arrived here bout two weeks after Orr came. l She and Orr had been close friends in the east, to the dissatisfaction of the millionaire. She did not accompany | the young man in his conquerinR tour 1 of the gambling towns of Colorado, but when he reached Phoenix. he found something about 1t he liked. The cltv approached his ideas of what town should be and he decided to qualify as voter. He accordingly imported Miss Wilkinson and installed her at the Louvre where they have both been re- siding.
 There is nothing legally wrong about that though. for week ago the char acter of their residence was lifted, by
 process of law and evidence, far above
 reproach.
 In letter to person here concern ing the movements of his son, his finan
 cial needs, his tendency to irregularity
 in the matter of bank checks and con
 spquent and impending disaster, Mill
 ionaire Orr writes that he is indisposed to come to the front until this youns woman is per nanently retired. She il
 said to be petite and handsome gir of 22.
