EXAMINATION OF ECKEL |
Same Damaging Facts Were Brought
 Out Against Him.

The preliminary examination of Will liam Eckel. charged with the enticing away of the fifteen-year-old daughter of his brother. was begun in Justice Burnett's court yesterday morning. At the close of the proceedings for the day there was still one witness to be heard Tor the territory, the porter of the Pullman on which Eckel and the girl travelled from Maricopa to California The case was continued until o'clock this morning. Attorney C. B. Morris of San Bernardino. for the defendant offered to admit the matter to which IL was expected by the prosecution that the porter would swear to. The at torney was very anxious to get back to San Bernardino, where he has d murder case pending. District Attor- ney Baker refused to accept the ad- mission, saying that he wanted the tes- timony of the porter on the record.
 There was no testimony on the part of the defendant nor was the line of defense disclosed in the course of the cross examination of the witnesses for the territory, though they were closely questioned by MT. Morris, who objected to all evidence which did not bear upon the charge of child stealing. Il was indicated by the questions of the prosecution that a more serious charge than that of child stealing will be lodged against Eckel
 The general story of the taking away of the girl was retold by the members of the Eckel family who displayed a great deal of bitterness toward the de- fendant. The girl herself shielded him as much as possible. saying that she had intended to run away from home with somebody. and that her uncle fur nished her the first opportunity. She objected to going into details of her re- lations with her uncle after they left Phoenix, though she finally admitted that they occupied the same berth of the Pullman and that they occupied the same room at the hotel at San Bernardino.
 The father, mother, brother and sis ter of the girl described the conduct of her uncle toward her while he was living at their house; that indicated a more than natural affection between an uncle and his niece The conduct of the defendant. they said, was such that he had been remonstrated' with and finally was ordered away from the house.
 AiC tSS'iiiOiS OA bhS ldlHeI OI lue girl was delivered with a great deal of feeling and with so much preciseness that it was almost wearisome. Once when the attorney for the defense made a somewhat heated objection to the admission of some of his testimony. Eckel turned to him and said: II hope the attorney for the defendant, will never have to go through as a father what I have gone through in the last few weeks. God help me"
 One damaging circumstance was brought out. It was shown by the tes- timony of Jack Harris and others that the defendant had been at Maricopa a

 A good deal of the testimony was of such a character that the younger boys who were thronging the courtroom were driven out. The girl is small of her age and not as well developed as girls of that age usually are.
 One Of the witnesses for the territory was Cnductor Strahl of the Maricopa and Phoenix. on whose train Eckel and the girl left town. He said that Eckel had paid the fare of himself and the girl in cash and that among the money Eckel had given him was a pc culiar dollar. It was in appearance an ordinary silver dollar. but upon press ing one face near the edge it opened. disclosing a photograph. Only one such dollar had ever been heard of in this part of the country and that was owned for years until about two weeks ago by Sheriff Roberts of Yavapci county. He lost it on the train some . where between Yuma and this city. The one now marked Exhibit A in the Eckel case is no doubt the dollar Of the sheriff.

 It is sincerely believed that this step will have the effect of bringing in prac- tically all the remaining lands on this side the river. What the Tempe canal landowners will do is still an uncertain quantity. One of them signed for 16O acres yesterday and announced that he felt sure four of five of his neighbors would come in. A similar story came straight from another Tempe land owner. He said himself and neighbors were coming in regardless of any ac- ton the south sf1e leaders might take. IL is therefore d reasonable hope that this conclusion may be reached by the Tempe farmers generally Mir Heard's office was rather a busy place yester- day. Several of the larger landown- CTS under the Tempe were in consulta- tion with him. It is matter of rumor. though not verified, that so recent as yesterday afternoon they were still de- termined to stay out of the associa- tion; were still impressed with the practicability of their pumping enter prise, and to that end some of them filed with the county recorder an amended location of water for power purposes.
 But if the leaders to remain outside there is still strong indication that their following among the smaller farmers will not be great Messrs. Heard, Hayden. Jones. Woolf and others are possibly able to erect their own pumping plants, but they cannot construct so perfect a system as the association offers at lesser expense. In the event of their doing so they will necessarily have more obstacles to overcome than will the associatio Their organization will be human as is the other. and at best it can be no more perfect, and what the small farm CT will most seriously consider is that his rights under the south side organi- zation cannot have the protecting in- fiuence of the government which is guaranteed to stockholders in theWater Users association.
