 City Engineer Davidson yesterday made complaint before the recorder of the commission of an oHense against the tree line' ordinance. The person complained against is a lady of the greatest prominence in the val ley and one of the foremost workers in the First M B. church. The mat ter came up in the following manner: The lady was experimenting the set ting out of some trees about the church. MT. Davidson was engaged in surveying the street near by. He was asked about the street line, where upon he explained the tree line, laid out the line and marked it by stakes. He then went away, after which the lady in charge of the tree planting, disregarding the engineers work, caused the trees to be set out in an other line which formed an acute angle with the tree line. When MT. Davidson heard of it he swore out a warrant.
 Judge A. c. Baker and Assistant District Attorney Bullard returned yesterday morning from Gila Bend, where they went to attend the prelim- mary examination of the Andersons and James Kerrick, the former appear ing for the defense and the latter for the territory. As mentioned in The Republican yesterday, the examina- tion was continued on account of the illness of Justice Kaltenbach. The Andersons and Kerrick are in jail and Tom Davenport is under arrest on complaint of the younger Anderson, who says that he fired the first shot. the one that wounded him in the hand and wrist. Feeling in the com munity is intense and it is said that the enemies of the Andersons are ap- preaching them in jail and offering them inducements to leave the coun- try.

There is appre- hension of an early tragedy in the vii cinity of the Bend, growing out of the present state of affairs.
