THE HAMMOND RODGERS
 HELD 10 GRAND JURY
Hernandez is About Ready to Con-
 fess His Guilt.

Following the taking of considerable Vs. Jesus Hernandez alias Francisco Santa Cruz and Anastacio Rodriguez. in their preliminary examination on a charge Ot burglary of the residence of w. D. Hammond, Judge Johnstone yes terday bound both of the defendants over to await the action of the grand jury. The bond in each case was placed at $600. which neither was able to furnish and they were sent to jail. Throughout the examination Herman dez bore an air of utter indifference as to the outcome of the affair, and sev- eral times laughed outright Rodri- guez showed a tendency to take the matter more seriously, and whenever occasion offered itself spoke in contra diction to the testimony offered He maintains he was in no way connect ed with the affair and swears directly against some of the strong circumstan- tial evidence.
 There was a fair sized crowd in at tendance at the time of the examina- tiOn. which was held late yesterday af- ternoOn. The crowd was largely made up of Mexicans who were acquainted with the accused men, or who were ac- quainted with the ranchers near Tempe with whom the jewelry had been left
 Most of the testimony had to be taken by the aid of an interpreter, which caused the hearing to drag. Mrs. Ham mond was the first witness placed on the stand. Sse told the story of the robbery in detail. She left her home at the corner of Madison and Fifth street for about two hours on the night of Monday, the 16th On her return | dressing tables in her bedroom had been rifed and her trunk had been broken open. Fourteen rings and three pistols were missing, besides a large quantity of wearing apparel. The
 trunk she thought had been opened with a pair of shears. It was from the trunk the jewelry had been taken. She 1 identified the two pistols and the nine rings, bracelet and watch recovered by the police, as a part of her missing l jewelry.
 1 Following Mrs. Hammond, the ter ritory called two witnesses who had been in the Columbus saloon on the
 night of the robbery. They were Fran
 cisco Durand And Cassamillo Salcido Both lived in Phoenix all of their lives. | They were in the saloon between the | hours of nine and ten o'clock on the night of the robbery. Both of them 1 testified that they had seen the accused | men enter the saloon premises at the
 rear of the lot each carrying bundles of black goods. At the gate they were met by Cruz York, one of the propri- etors of the Columbus saloon. They ! had come to the yard from the direc-
 ton of the Hammond house.
 Officer A. J. Moore of the city police
 was the next witness to testify. He i told the story of the case as recited ir the Republican several days ago. Nich- oIas York he said, had returned the jewelry to him after being sent for il by Jesus Hernandez. who was in th' county iail He told of the confession
Arizona republican., 1906-07-24

to have been with him on the evening of the robbery. He wanted the court to explain why he had been arrested. when there was no one to offer testi mony that he was in any way Impli- cated with the taking of the jewelry from the Hammond house. The court explained at this time there were but two things to be decided. First. that a robbery had been committed, and, second, that the parties accused were in any way implicated in the affair. Of this the court was satisfied and the two prisoners were remanded back to the custody of the sheriff until such time as they would be discharged by a higher court or furnish the bond re- quired.
 Hernandez after being taken to his cell in the county jail, practically ad- mitted that he would make q plea of guilty when his case was called in the district court and ask the mercy of the court in passing sentence. He feels

made by Hernandez of his cOmDlicity in the affair and of how he maintained he did not enter the house, but found the articles he carried from the house to the saloon on the outside of the house where they had been thrown by a second party Hernandez claimed not to know. and who ran away from the place the instant following the throw ing of the goods into the yard. He also went over in detail the trip he forced York to take to Tempe in the recov- cry of the jewelry.
 Nicholas York, who was next exam ined. was a surly witness. He acted like a man who was sore on the world. His answers came as snarls, and he an- tcipated nearly every question and had an answer ready before it was fully asked him. He testified that he had seen neither of the defendants on the night of the robbery. He visited Her nandez in the county jail the day of his arrest and received from him note addressed to Justo Caranio, the con- tents of which note he did not know, neither did he care. It was from one friend who was in thouble and in jail, to a friend at liberty, and his mission was to deliver the note. This he did, was given the jewelry and later return ed with the OfncerS to the pldCe WuSIe he had delivered the note and showed the officer te whom he had delivered it. He knew no more about the af- fair and did not want to know any more.
 Jesus Morales, to whom Hernandez had written the note which was deliv- cred by York, was the next witness eX- amined. He works on a ranch near Tempe and was there when York ar rived with the message. Following his instructions he gave the message to Romero. who dug up the plunder and
 gave it to York Ramon Romero was
 called and testified to the manner in
 which he came in possession of the in formation as to where the jewelry had
 been buried He was taking some food
 to Hernandez who was in the jail at
 Tempe. when he was given the infor- nation He kept it a secret until Her nandez directed him to give the jewelry to the officers, sending the same by York.
 The territory then rested and the de- fendants were given an opportunity to make a statement. Hernandez did not care to talk, but Rodriguez made statement under oath. He declared that on the night of the robbery he re- tired at S:3O o'clock and did not again see Hernandez that day. He denied every part of the signed statement of
 Hernandez where the latter claimed

they richly deserved the enthusiastic curtain call they received at the end of the first act. Mr. Henderson proved himself to be an actor of ability il leading roles. and as Harry Spread- brow he played himself into The favo- of the house Too much praise cannur be given MaUde Lita as Jennie North cutt. and her singing Of Tosti's Cool Bye in the second act was a revelation. She has a sweet sympathetic yoic-. and uses it to the best advantage
 Mir Henderson proved his versitality in the second bill Miss McMUllcu dII one of her odd speciaIties in the sec ond bill and it was as usual well re- ceived. The motion pictures We're re- ally very good.

One of the brightest little comedies and some of the most delightful act ing sen here for a long time was witnessed by a fair sized and very ap- preciative audience at Eastlake Park last night.

TROLLEY AFTER
CREEK BRIDGE.
Public Service Said TO Want
Control Of the Structure In
stall Electric Motor.

Because Of the great difficulty in
turning the Woodbridge creek bridge,
and the fact that il becomes fast oc-
casionally, when half open, the Off
cials of the Public Service corpora
tion will. it is said, shortly petition
the Board of Freeholders for a per-
nit 10 PUT an electric motor on the
bridge, also TO give over to them the
charge OF the structure. In this way
they expect to save great deal of
money and time.
1t is said that the company desires
10 take over the management of the
bridge. because of the great trolley
traffic they expect will go over the
bridge this coming summer and from
the fact that every time a car arrives
at the bridge it is necessary for the
conductor TO get of, throw his light,
ana if the track is clear go ahead
again TO the other side of the bridge.
where he must throw another light.
This work could be done by the
bridge tender as also the attending
of other things and they think it
would pay, il is said in the long run.

Special TO the EVENING NE WS 4:

Special 10 the EVENING NEWS:
TRENTON, Mar 21.--A strenuous
fight by Assemblyman William r.
Drake, of MiddleseX county, against
the proposition to sidetrack Perth
Amboy on the question OF the new
assembly districts, has been won COM
plctely and it is settled that the bill
will be amended SO as to give the
metropolis of the county the recogni-
tion is deserves.
Mr.. brakes victory means the fol-
lowing changes in the proposed as
sembly lines in MiddleseX: The first
district will contain Perth Amboy,
population 25,S95 and Woodbridge
township, population 1O,22l; total
poulation, 36,116. All the rest of
The municipalities that the present
bill places in the first district will go
into the second district with New
Brunswick. This will make the sec
ond district stand thus:
New Brunswick Takes Others.
New Brunswick, population 23,-
1873; Metuchen, population 1907;
Highland Park, population ia;
Dunellen, population 1,517; Raritan
township, population, 2,612; Piscata-
way township, population, 2,767; to-
tai population, $3.50. The third dis
trict will remain the same as fixed
by the bill originally, with a popula-
ton of 2S,270. 1t will be seen that
Mr.. Drake has secured the most
equitable division that could be
made. The story of the victory is an
interesting one.
Assemblyman Drake first took the
matter up with Governor Stokes and
laid the whole situation before him.
He pointed out to the governor the
manifest unfairness of the proposed
measure. Governor Stokes was fair
and said he would consider the ques-
ton. That was hopeful. Then Mr..
Drake went to see State Treasurer
Frank O. Briggs, chairman of the
Republican state committee, and got
him to see how matters stood. Both
to the governor and to the state
chairman Mr. Drake stated how the
people of Perth Amboy felt about
the proposition, and contended that
it was very unfair treatment.
Conference With Governor.
This led TO conference, at which
