ecuting the case, while Attorneys Ben
Goodrich, James McLachlan and w. H.
Savage, the we'll known San Pedro at
torney, and uncle of the defendant, are
defending the case.
A large portion of the morning yester-
day was given up to argument on and
objection to the introduction of Roche's
dying statement, wherein he specifically
charged the defendant with having fired
at him. Two questions of some import
ance developed: First, whether Roche,
when he made the statement, knew that
he was dying; and second, whether the
statement was read over to him. Dr.
Weldon. it appeared, questioned Roche,
and both questions and answers were
taken down in writing by Justice Pat
terson. The doctor claimed that the
statement was read over to the dying
man by the justice, and at the prelim-
mary examination the justice was
equally certain that the statement was
read over by the doctor.
In the afternoon probably the most
interesting witness examined was T.
Maxwell, a Scotchman, with all the
proverbial cautiousness of that race. He
testified to having accompanied the de-
PENDANT on the day of the trouble, in a
search for Roche. After going around
for an hour or two and failing in the eff
fort to meet young Roche, the two re-
turned to MaXwell's room.
What was Savage's physical condi-
tion?" inquired Mr.. Williams.
well, he just acted curious" was the
-committal answer.
"Was he drunk or sober 2"
1--WE had only one drink all the day."
was the response, the witness again re-
fusing to be entrapped into a definite
answer.
Yes" sharply queried the prosecuting
attorney, "but what was his condition Z?
Couldn't you tell if he was intoxicated p"
II couldn't just say. I told him to lie
down and have a sleep and he'd be all
right"
Passing from that phase of the case,
the witness was Intercepted regarding
the remarks pde by the defendant both
before and after the killing. After Roche
was shot and the defendant had sur
rendered himself, he made the remark
that he was underneath and he had to
shoot. The natural inference would be
that there had been a scuffie, and when
Savage got the worst of it he shot in self
defense. But, as it appeared by the tes-
timony yesterday, the defendant never
asserted that there had been any fight
between Roche and himself. Being
asked what conversation had taken place
between himself and the defendant re-
garding the money Savage claimed had
been stolen from him on the previous
night, the witness. Maxwell, replied:
Il esked him who he thought had taxi
en- it.
And what did he say?"

THE WRONG HOUSE
An Emissary of the Water Company
Cut Off the Water by Mistake

The suit of T. P. Dyer against the Los
Angeles City Water company was tried
before Judge Allen and jury in Depart
ment six yesterday. The case was on
appeal from the Justices court.
1t developed from the testimony that
last May the Dyers purchased home OH
the Adams Street tract, which they en-
bellished with lawns and flowers. When
the place began to present an idealstic
homelike appearance the happiness Of
the folks was rudely disturbed by an
emissary of the water company. With
pick and shovel he proceeded to locate
the position of the cock connecting the
house with the water main. In vain the
household pleaded that there were no ar
rears of water rent; that it had been paid
regularly and that there was nothing
due. The company's man was obdurate
and cut off the water.
Then the tender plants shriveled and
the lawn turned yellow for lack of liquid
nourishment. The domestic economy
of the household was also disturbed,
for there was no water for cooking pur-
poses. All of this was not conducive to
good temper. and suit was brought and
won by the Dyers against the company
in the Justices court for 1920 damages
The company appealed and the case
was tried yesterday. The one particular
fact in the case of interest was that the
water man made mistake in the house
and denied the Dyers a privilege that
ought to have been denied to some one
else.
The jury retired at o'clock, but at 5: 80,
not having agreed, Judge Allen ordered
that they return a sealed verdict. The
jury again retired to deliberate and
shortly before o'clock returned sealed
verdict, which will be opened when court
convenes this morning.

HE just laughed and said he knew
more than people thought he did"
What did he say about the persons
that had robbed him. and about fixing
them?"
HE said he had been robebd before
and he was going to put stop to it. He
said he knew who had done it. and he
was going to fix them"
Did he say anything about plugging
him?"
''He said he'd plug him. He spoke SO
irrationally that spoke to him in a
coaxing way"
Didn't he say he didn't care for him
self?"
"He said: I don't care for myself; it's
for my friend, Golden"
At this point the pistol fled in evidence
was submitted to witness for identifi-
cation as being the weapon with which
the defendant had shot Roche. But the
witness again was excessively cautious
and refused to handle the weapon to
himself by positively Identifying
1t.
The further hearing Of the case win
be continued today

Young says she made visit to the Office
of Mr.. Gould when he reproached heI
for taking such action. He wanted tc
know where she would be II he Q} were
to consent by stipulation to waive find
ings in her (your) case?" He also told
her that he knew when $500 belonging
to her deceased husbands estate was
placed which she would never see. Be
fore leaving the Office Mr.. Gould ex-
planned to Mrs. Young that he had no
intention of taking any such action, as
he had indicated. however, for 1t would
be so detrimental to her.
Notwithstanding such promise, Mrs.
Young sets out that on December 18th a
stipulation was actually drawn between
Messrs. Pierce and Gould on the one
hand, and Messrs Marble and Phibbs
on the other, by which findings were
waived and decree prepared. This Sc
cret arrangement provided for a divorce
being entered for the deceased husband
of Mrs. Young, and that $500 be awarded
Messrs. Pierce and Gould as fees for
acting as defendants attorneys. Mrs.
Young alleges that Judge Van Dyke did
not wish to sign the paper until assured
by General Pierce that they had been
prepared with the consent of himself
and his confrere as attorneys for the
widow. -
These facts are substantiated by sew
eral other affidavits, and these are Off
set by a batch of other affidavits filed
in court by Will D. Gould, General Pierce
and several other persons, in which
every allegation of Mrs. Young is de-
MED. These gentlemen claim that Mrs.
Young has engaged other counsel for the
specific purpose of defrauding. them out
of the money that might accrue to them.
That when the will of her husband was
made public, and she found that her
daughter, her mother and herself had
been remembered, she lost interest in
the divorce proceedings, and 1t was with
her consent that the stipulation for find
ings was prepared.
So this very pretty tangle stands at
present. 1t seems reasonably certain
that some of the af1idavit-makers can
lay valid claim to being lineal descend
ents of Mr.. Ananias, but who they
are it remains for the court to find out.
Meantime Mrs. Young will get what sat
isfaction she can under the laws of the
state of California, and under the laws
Of Missouri will claim her dover interest
