able to go to court.
Three Japanese servants in the apart
ment house in West S0th street where
Stokes was shot, are held as witnesses.
Terence j. McManus. Mr.. Stokes at

girls apartment, on receiving message
from Miss Conrad, to obtain some let

written any such letters, and when he
reached the apartment, his counsei says.

volver. and. pointing to a pad on desk

Mr.. McManus says that Stokes refused
and that .thereupon Miss Graham fired
two shots at him. Stokes got the re-
volver away from Miss Graham, who
then, according to Mr.. McManus. called
upon Miss Conrad to fire. Miss Conrad,
Stokes lawyer states. also fired. and as
the millionaire backed into the hallway

Miss Graham. in a statement, says that
Stokes came to her apartment and de-
manded letters which he admitted writ
ing. When told that she had no letters
Miss Graham alleges that Stokes turned
on me in a perfect fury and caught me
by the throat and began to choke me"
Miss Graham then alleges that, fearing
violence at his hands. she shot at him:
whereupon, she says, Stokes wrenched
the pistol from her and shot at her.
Miss Graham says nothing about the
charge made by Stokes counsel that
Miss Conrad fired a shot.
Stokes says he met Miss Graham and
her sister. Mrs. John Singleton Of Los
Angeles. some time ago. He only
knew Miss Conrad slightly, he states.

MILLER TRIAL HALTED
BY ABSENCE Of JUROR
John TickeI| Fails to Appear
and Court Officers Can
not Locate Him.

While Justice Wright and his eleven fell
low jurors waited patiently for more than
two hours in Criminal Court No. 1 today.
John Tickell. a member Of the jury now
trying j. Barton Miller, former secretary
treasurer of the First Cooperative Build
ing Association of Georgetown, was the
subject of a manhunt conducted by De-
tectives Helan and Grant Of the office
of the United States attorney.
After waiting until the recess hour
Justice Wright excused the remaining
jurors until a quarter past one O'Clock.
When no tidings OF the missing juror had
been received at that hour court was
adjourned until tomorrow morning.
In dsmissing the jury Justice Wright
said: "You may go until tomorrow morn
ing, and unless you forget to come, as
Mr.. Tickell appears to have done, we will
have a session of court He, at least.
will be here tomorrow.
When the jury was called into the box
this morning by Clerk Hawken to re-
of embezzling the funds of the associa-
tion Mr.. Tickell did not respond.
AS the juror has been very prompt in
his attendance the court waited quite q
while before setting the machinery OF
law in motion to locate him.
Tickell could not be reached by tele
phone and the detectives set out to find
him.
Inc juror Is engaged rs q OlStrlOuteE

detectives reached his house they found

left the house. she said. to fill several or
ders which he had received. The detec-
tives visited each of the places where the
orders were to be executed, but, failing
to find the missing man, returned to
court.
An attachment was issued by direc-
tion of the court, under which Mr..
Tickell will be in court tomorrow
morning.
The general impression about the city
hall. and which. from the remark of
the court. is probably shared by Justice
Wright. is that Mr.. Tickell mistook to-
day for Friday and thought there was
no session of the court.

Reason Given for Denial.

Despite the fact that Col. Roosevelt
Yesterday denied the story that he would
support President Taft in 1912. there are
those in Washington who say that the
former chief executive issued the denial
because he is averse to having announce
ment of his plans made at this time.
Rumors have reached Washington since
the meeting in Baltimore Tuesday be-
tween the President and his predecessor
that the pledge of support made by Col
Roosevelt was made in confidence. That
the story of this pledge should have be-
come public just now is said to have
emba rrassed Col Roosevelt.
Friends of the President and Col.
Roosevelt point out that both men will
meet again within a few days. when the
latter will come to the White House to
participate in the festivities arranged
for the anniversary of the silver we'd
ding of Mr. and Mrs. Taft June 10.
Mutual friends of the two statesmen
also assert that Col Roosevelt desires to
aid President Taft in the next campaign.
but that he desires to work quietly.

POSSIBILITIES FOR
 AGRICULTURE SHOWN
Bulletin of University Gives interesting and Valuable
 Information

Bulletin No. @. by Director R. II
 Forbes, Of the University of Arizona agricultural experiment station, has just been issued and Is now avail able to those desiring information on the important subject of irriga
 tion and agricultural practice in Ari- zona This publication deals in somewhat exact and exhaustive man ner with the water resources of Arizona. All sources of information with reference to the water supply carried by our rivers and avaliable from artesian wells and underflow
 have been carefully digested with the result that the possible water supply for irrigation in Arizona IS found to be between four and five million acre-feet Of iTrigating water per annum. This is sufficient, un- der southwestern conditions, for about one million acres of inten
 sively cultivated land. This is aD- proximately four times the area Of land now successfully cultivated in the territory, which means that in time to come, four times our present area of intensiVely cultivated land will probably give Arizona an agri- cultural income approaching ten times that which she now receives.
 Especially interesting are the facts relating to the runoff, stor- age possibilities and irrigable areas pertaining to the Colorado river. The average present conditions is shown Go be about nine million Gcrefect annually. which, theoreti- caliy, could be taken care of by approximately ton million acre-feel of storage capaeity on thc upper Colorado. This would supply the water requirements of irrigablc
 ecfes in Arizona, California and Mexico amounting, SO far as meas tired, to about l,400.p acres of land. This situation indicates that while the colorado river is aIi in terstate and international stream, there should be no fear that thlg

THE JOYS SUPPLANT

Boston ReioiceS Over Fourteen Cent Price and Smiles

(Boston News Bureau)

Copper at l2 cents and copper al If cents spells the difference--in Bos ton at Ieast--between the hopeless despair on the one hand and buoyant confidence on the other. But a few days ago the market place for Bos tons copper shares was literally a deserted village: cobwebs were gath ering on the tickers and the "glooms were in i'ull control The big men
 some big men at least--were howl ing calamity and phophesied 11-cent copper. Such an event of course could be but the forerunners of div idends passed, mining operations com. pletely suspended and a complete prostration of the industry.
 Today the joys" are dancing in high gIee. The prophets of disaster have either Tepudiated their direful predictions or haze confessed that their diagnosis oi conditions was tals- ly based.
 An advance of just ? cents in the price of copper has been the instru mentality which has worked out the transformation in sentiment and during the past q hours there has been demonstration of public in teYest in copper investments such as has not been witnessed for fully two years
 The bugaboO of a big surplus stock of copper has long haunted the hold CTS of copper shares who lived in daily fear of an avalanche of the met al which threatened destruction.
 Sanity, however has reasserted it. elf. It is realized that there is in this country in the hands of the refineries @ stock equal to but four weeks pro duction, to be eXact-111 100000 pounds. This total is dangerously small. not dangerously large!
 True to tradition the American usanuf ctuners lave again been out by the foreign buyers. Europe will always take a chance on cheap copper, The Yankee prefers to buy on an advancing market and adjust his selling prices to cores pond, rather than buy at low prices when the manufacturing demand is not in sight.
 The big manufacturers in this coun- try are now running to cover They are trying to contract for March re- and 14 cents per pound is the price named them! What this means to the copper investor is pie tured in the advancing prices on the Boston Stock Exchange.
 The year I9G1 has not dealt kind ly with Boston brokers, but it may go out in a blaze of glory after all.
