FOR EXPORTING
 NEVILLS' COIN
The Fresno Scandal Will Have an Airing in the Police
 Court This Morning.
Myron H. Azhdaerian, Mrs. Elsie Will Hams and Her Sister Locked Up
 in the City Prison.

The Nevills- s-Williams-Az ir,- brogolio has been temporarily transferred from Fresno to this city. and this morn ing in Judge Joachimsens court both sides will have an opportunity of telling their stories to the world.
 Yesterday morning Mrs. Elsie Williams, Mrs Grace Loose, her sister, and Myron H. Azhdaerian were brought from Fresno to the City Prison by Deputy Sheriff Tim mins and booked on charges of felony extortion. The complaining witness is Captain w. A. Nevills, the mining mill lionaire of Jamestown, Tuolumne County.
 The specific charge on which the de- fendants were arrested is for extorting s2000 from the complaining witness on February 25 last while he was sick with grip at the Palace Hotel by threatening to deliver to Nevills' wife certain letters which he had written to Mrs. Williams. showing that illicit relations had existed between them.
 The defendants were arraigned in Judge Joachimsen's court yesterday morning They were represented by. ex-Judge Fer ral and Attorney W. H. Payson. Ferral said that he was ready to proceed, but after consultation with Private Detective Curtin. Prosecuting Attorney Granam asked for a continuance till this morning at Ii o'clock, which was granted
 Ferral then asked that the defendants be released on bonds accepted by the Su-
  declined to accept them. as he. did not know the sureties. Ferral thereupon urged that the bonds of $50O0 should be reduced, as the amount was excessive, but no action was taken and the defen- dants were sent back to prison.
 Azhdaerian constituted himself the spokesman for the trio. He said that Neyflls had been "stringing on" Mrs. Will Hams with the object Of getting a divorce from his wife and marrying her. With re- gard to the charge Azhdaerian said that ii was untrue. Nevills had sent Mrs. Newcomb, a friend, to Fresno, to bring Mrs. Williams to the Palace Hotel to see him. They came to the city, and he ac- cotnpanied them as Nevills wanted to see him about house he was building for him. Mrs Williams got the check from Nevills and cashed it at the Wells-Fargo Bank. The money was paid to Mrs. Will Nevills that he would pay her debts and rnake her comfortable. On the same nromise he gave her later an order for seme securities In Fresno.
 Tn the afternoon Mrs. Williams was taken to the District Attorneys office, where Captain Nevills and his wife were waiting for her. She was kept there for about half an hour, and when she came out 10 go back to the prison she was in tears and became hysterical in her cell in the prison.
