AT the Coroner's inquest last
night nothing definite was accom-
plished in the inquiry into the death
OF Robert G. Emerson. One juror
was absent and number Of wit
nesses summoned did not appear. All
jurors last night were required to
enter into bond for their appearance
at the Court House next Tuesday
evening, as were also all the wit
nesses who appeared last night, and
the absent ones will be required, as
soon as located, to enter recogni-
zances for their appearance at the
inquest next Tuesday. From numer-
Gus circumstances and indications 1t
Is thought decidedly doubtful that
Mr.. Emerson fell from the Blue
Ridge trestle and was killed, and 1t
is thought much more probable that
he was killed by some party or par
ties and his body placed there Mr..
Emerson is said to have left home
with something like $50 in
his pockets and when his
body was found there was
only about SO. He had, however,
paid his taxes (about $4.S5), and
that is the only evidence of any
money spent by him, except that he
was drinking, and probably left
some of his change with the blind
tiger. He left home with the inten-
ton Of paying his taxes and two
bills, and we are informed that nei-
ther of the bills was paid.
DIR. J. w. Bell is opening up a
full line Of Christmas goods. You can
find presents here for all occasions
and to suit all pocket books.

Flag Wins From Williams.

The Sunday game of base ball be- tween Flagstaff and Williams. the first of the series of three games between Gallup, Williams and Flagstaff was won by Flagstaff by a score of 5 to o.
 Samosa and Bosquette were reg ister and receiver for Flagstaff. with Gonzales and Barcley doing the pass and return for Williams. For four innings it was a game full of assorted hot stuff neither side scoring. The ball was hit some but it never got away far enough to do any harm. Dunstan at third seemed to have selfcock. ing arm with globe sight attach ment and with Flynn as the target on first there wasn't much doing for the base runner Mullen, Glow and Smith guarded the outer garden and kept the flies off the grass with a celerity that would make frog look lazy. 1t was all in the days work with Bosquette, Tommy Smith and Samosa and as usual they never slipped cog.
 The Williams players were up to the work and but for Barclays in- decision in the sixth inning with three men on bases, the result might nave read ? to 0 instead of five. He waited too long allowing the runner on first chance to get back before throwing; the man on third to a chance on reaching home and Martinez at first snapped it home low and the base was lost and a block let in three runs. After this Williams settled down and was naught for naught to the end.
 The score by innings:
 Flagstaff 00 0014 % 0-5 Williams OO0 0000 0 0--0

SWARTz PARTNER FOUND
Stevens, the Missing Partner of Swartz Brought Back From Prescott to Tes- tify Willing to Admit he is Alive.

Deputy Sheriff Tom Pulliam came in last Friday night from Prescott with J. s. Stevens. the man who is said to have been Swartz' partner in the detective business in Williams. He claims he has never been dead since the time he left Williams in August last year, and had no desire to re- turn and prosecute either NeilI or Woods for threatening to dump him into the dam. When he suddenly disappeared from Williams he went to the Tribby mines near Cherry Creek, where he has been ever since. When he first heard of Neil and Woods being accused of his murder he went to Prescott and advised the sheriff that he was alive. He was taken in charge and brought to Flagstaff under arrest being held as a witness against Woods and Neill for having threatened his life. He remarked that he had no desire to prosecute them and would not appear against them unless compelled to. He de- nied being in any way connected with Swartz Tn his detective work while in Williams. In August he claims to have been at work in the stone quarry east of here and later went to Williams where he met Swartz and merely went to room ing with him to save hotel ex- penses; that he did not even at first know that Swartz was engaged in the business.
 Stevens seems thoroughly con- vinced that he was due for long soak in the dam with rock tied to his neck. had not a third party with whom he was not acquainted. inter ceeded for him. After removing the wire which bound his hands he claims to have been advised by Neil to get out of the town and not to come back.

FOUND GUILTY
OF EXTORTION
RlTCHEY BREAKS DOWN AT
JURYS VERDICT
YOUNG MAN BECOMES ALMOST
HYSTERICAL
After fearful Parting from Mother
and Wife, Former stenographer
Crosses Bridge of Signs TO
County jail

Roland r. Ritchey, the stenographer
charged with sending threatening let
ters to William L. Graves, vice pres
ident of the Merchants National bank,
in April for the purpose of extorting
money, was found guilty by a jury in
Judge Willis department of the GRIM
inal court at AIS o'clock yesterday,
and after a fearful parting with his
mother and his young wife was taken
across the bridge of sighs to the coun-
ty Jail. He will again appear in court
at 10 o'clock Wednesday for sentence,
at which time a motion will be made
for new trial.
Ritchey, for the first time since the
beginning of his trial, showed emotion
when the foreman of the jury read the
verdict, tears filling his eyes as he
placed his arm about his wife's neck
and kissed her. He became almost
hysterical as his mother and the
younger woman arose from their seats
to leave the court room, and it was
some time before he could be quieted.
The proceedings yesterday were con-
fined to arguments to the jury by Nor
man B. Sterry, attorney for Ritchey,
and Asa Keyes, deputy district attor-
ney, who closed for the prosecution.
The case was given to the jury about
noon.
Ritchey was accused of attempting
to extort $4,000 from Mr.. Graves by
means of a long series of threatening
letters and printed warnings to the
banker that his death was near. His
defense was that of insanity, a num-
Der of physicians testifying, in their
opinion, he was of unsound mind when
he sent the letters, while several of
his intimate friends and relatives told
of the marked change in his manner
and appearance a month before and
since the trial, leading them to believe
he was suffering mentally.
In returning its verdict the jury rec
commended mercy be shown to Rltchey,
and If he should be sent to the peni-
tentiary it is believed it will be for
shorter term than the five years the
extreme penalty for the crime of which
he has been found guilty. 1t was also
stated yesterday by Ritchey's counsel
that an application for probation may
be made in the hope Of securing for
him the extreme of leniency.

H0VAK HAS GOOD MINE
IN SEARCHLIGHT, NEVADA
Produces Enough Bullion to Pay for
Mine and Operating
Expenses

Mat Hovak, who made success in
the Bullfrog district, Nevada, in the
early history of the big Montgomery
Shoshone mine, Of which he was su-
perintendent, is now developing a gold
property in the Searchlight country,
Nevada, that promises to make a
profit paying mine.
Associated with Hovak are w. 3.
Rulon and B. p. Hutchinson of Phila-
delphia, the three men owning the
Pompeii, which they purchased six
months ago for $25,O0O Since they
took possession Mr.. Hovak, with the
aid of a small amalgamatlng plant
saving 70 per cent of the value of the
ore, has paid for the property and for
the development work.
Hovak sank the shaft from the 26O-
foot level 100 feet and encountered a
flow of water so great that the ten
inch Cornish pump with which the
mine Is equipped, was found made
quate to the requirements. He and
Mr.. Rulon are in Los Angeles to get
larger pump.
The Pompeii company which is a
close corporation, will increase the
capacity of the mill and add cyanide
tanks to bring the extraction up to 80
per cent or higher.
