NO POISON FOUND
|. |NTHESTOMACH
OF ROBERTS
Officially Determined
That He Died From
Natural Causes.

According to the official investiga-
ton made by the State Chemist at
Tucson, of the contents of the
stomach Of Curtis Roberts, the lat
ter's death a few weeks ago at the
Alto mines in Skull Valley, was
occasioned from natural causes,
there being discerned in the analy-
sis made not the slightest trace OF
poison as having entered that por-
ton of the body.
Accordingly the verdict of the
coroner's jury of the manner OF the
death of Roberts, will be officially de-
signated as due to valvular heart
trouble, and the theory that he sui
cided will be disproved from pro-
fessional sources. Owing to the
absence OF the State chemist on the
coast fo- the past two weeks, the
official report was deferred until his
return home few days ago.

STATE ENGINEER
LAMAR COBB is HERE
{irom Sundays Dsiiy.)

State Engineer Lamar Cobb. who
is in the city TO remain for several
days on duties pertaining to future
road building, gives the important
information that the Linney bond
measure. which was defeated recent
" by the legislature, will be carried
out under the initiative principle, and
OF the issue being endorsed by the
State al large, there IS but little
doubt.
The amount to be made available
will insure the carrying out OF a
large line of good road building
throughout Arizona and of particu-
lar consideration in this movement
will be the continuation of the high
way on the route practically laid out
by his predecessor, ]. B. Grand
which cuts through the Bradshaw
mountains and brings Prescott and
Phoenix within ninety-six miles Of
each other, as against l35 miles by
the established line of communica
| ton.
Mr.. Cobb was a visito, yesterday
40 the completed stretch out Of I'M:
city distant about sixteen mile:
ard which terminates on Senate;
mountain. He reiterates his former
impressions that this route possess
es attractions that are fascinating
| and alluring beyong any question
and from a maintenance standpoint
and scenic observation, i will be al
avenue of travel for the future with
out a counterpart in the south
west.
Mr.. Cobb was joined in the city
by his division engineer, F. R. Good
man, who arrived during the da!
from Mohave county, where he i
engaged in laying out a road from
Yucca to the Needles, 'on the pro
| jected transcontinental line. Con
struction begins during the coming
week and it is to be opened insid,
of sixty days. Engineer Goodman
will probably be retained in tina
field, and work toward the Yavapa
county line from Kingman. He wa

DISPOSITION OF
ROAD FUNDS IS
CONS|DESED
Supervisors and State
Engineer Cobb Hold
A Conference.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Associated with the visit to Pres
colt at the present time of State
Engineer Lamar Cobb, are impor-
tant matters to be considered in the
disposition of state funds for future
wagon road building in the north,
and in connection Herewith it may
be said the decision to be arrived at
will vitality affect this section.
At a conference last night of
the supervisors Mr.. Cobb participant
ed. and with a feeling of earnestness
as we'll as willingness. 10 cooperate
with any movement that was prac-
ticable to make the combined move
ment a harmonious one in extending
the state road north and south.
1t was decided that the supervis-
ors and the state engineer proceed
to Flagstaff tomorrow to confer
with the Supervisors of Coconino
county. After the meeting termin-
ates a plan of future road building
will be arrived at. So far as this
county is to be considered, there is
available from state funds the sum
of $17, GOO, with which to construct
a distinctly state highway. If the
Coconino officials desire to build
from Flagstaff south over the Mog-
ollon mountains in their territory,
the allotment to this county will be
applied to the end north of Camp
Verde to close the gap to the COM
pleted twelve mile strip built under
the former administration, and which
runs up Beaver Creek close to the
Coconino county line. If on the
other hand, an adverse disposition is
manifested toward that end of the
route by the Coconino supervisors,
the state moneys available for this
county will be applied between
Prescott and Camp Verde via either
the Cherry Creek or the Copper
Canyon routes.
Under these consideration moth
ing definite can be forcasted at the
present time. and until the matter IS
amicably and finally adjusted at the
meeting to be held will the outcome
be known. The survey outfit OF the
State has been brought to Dewey
from Mohave county. and IS ready
for field service as soon as decis-
ion has been reached between Co
conino and YaVapai counties. Di
vision Engineer Frank Goodman
will be in charge and is now in the
city awaiting orders from State En-
, gineer Cobb.

BRIDGE OBSERVES
ANNIVERSARY VERY QUIETLY

NEW YOAK, June With no
more ceremony than the flying OF
two flags from its towers, Brooklyn
Bridge, the first to span the East
River. is quietly celebrating its thir-
tieth birthday this month. This first
of New York's mighty bridges took
thirteen years to complete. The
work on it began in 1870 and 1t was
not until May, 1888, that it was op-
ened to traffic. The cost to date
is placed at $22,400,0O0. At various
times, notably some six or eight
years ago, it has been said that the
bridge was on its last legs and
that it was only a matter of luck
whether or not il would collapse in
to the East River in some rush
hour, carrying a hundred thousand
or so of human beings with IT. In
spite OF all this the bridge is still in
commission and in first class shape
| Originally there were accommodation
for only teams and foo; passengers
with tracks for bridge cars. In 1897
arrangements were made for the
| Brooklyn elevated trains and trolles
cars to use the bridge and trolley
! tracks were laid on the old road
ways There have been numerous
! minor accidents on the bridge II
/ the thirty years. The single serious
accident occurred on May 80, 1888
There was a throng on the prone
made leading from the Manhattan en-
trance up to the tower on the Man
haitian side OF the rise Near the
anchorage for cables was a flight
of steps which was done away with
years ago. A woman coming tow
ard the Manhattan side stumbled and
screame as she reached the steps
The crowd pressed forward and ii
the panic that ensued twelve per.
sons were trampled to death, sever
were fatally injured and twenty
eight others were hurt. The bridge
has earned $23,224OO0 in its thirty
years, or about $4,000 more thar
its estimated cost TO date.

REALTY VALUES THE
HIGHEST IN THE WORLD

NEW YORK, June I'm spite OF
the recent shrinkages in the market
values OF the securities in which
Wall Street deals. its real estate val
ues have established their title to
being the highest in the world. ac-
cording to an investigation which
has just been completed here Never
in history and nowhere in the world
has a square foot of land been worth
as much as it is today in the heart
of the financial district. Search OF
the leading foreign cities OF the
world shows that outside OF New
York the highest value placed on
a parcel Of real estate large enough
TO hold a full-sized building is about
$3.50 4 square foot. New York has
a dozen or more plots which even
in such a dull market as is the pres
ent one would command that Inquire
and more In fact a sale was made
not many months ago in which the.
property figured at just a few cents
more than $500 d square foot. The
corner of Broadway and Wall St.
brought S55865 a square foot when
il was sold about ten years ago. In
the big cities of the old world the
highest values seems to belong to
property in Rome. Here is where
value of $3.50 is to be found, and
strange to relate the plot is not used
for an immense income producing
building, but includes the property
of the German Embassy, which
holds the Embassy building and its
expensive gardens Berlin has a
property which sold recently for
$3.50 a square foot and thereby es-
tablished a new high value for real
estate in that city. In Paris the
most valuable land is placed at $3.50
square foot Altogether Wall
Streets real estate values seem to
be in no danger of losing their little

AUTO is WRECKED
AS RESULT OF A PRANK
(From SUNDAYS Daily.)

Some OF the High School boys in
the early hours of yesterday morn
ing INDUCED in a prank which might
have had serious consequences in
two ways They took the machine
of o. F. Orthel and started out on
Joy ride which ended rather
abruptly when a series of obstruc-
tions were encountered on Mt. Yer
non Avenue and the gasoline wagon
executed a number OF stunts that a
circus tumbler might well envy. The
result was that the ride and the
machine, badly wrecked, were aban-
doned
However it should be stated in be-
half of the lads that they acted in
an honorable manner concerning the
affair, sending an emissary to Mr.
Orthel yesterday offering to pay the
repair bill and in the event the ma
chine could not be placed in as good
shape as before the disaster, to buy
it outright and thus fully compen-
safe its owner.
1t is evident that the young meT
did not realize the seriousness o.
their offense, which is a crime, anC
it is safe to say that after this one
lesson they will no more touch al
automobile which they do not owl
than fondle a rattlesnake.

MOTION FOR A
NEW TRIAL
Attorney Claims it Not
Shown 0risaga Not
Owner of Car.
(From Tuesdays Daily

Although the information filed
against a Mexican named { isaga
specified that the accused was ar
rested while in a box car OF the
Santa Fe Pacific Railway Company
at Seligman, and he was convicted
accordingly Of the crime OF grand
larceny. in a jury trial last week
his attorney yesterday entered the
unique plea on a motion Tor new
trial that it was not proven that
Orisaga was not the owner OF that
vehicle of transportation.
The court took the matter under
advisement until today, when 1t was
stated Orisaga would receive his
sentence to the pen.
The convicted man according to
the evidence had the goods on his
person when taken into custody.
but the great and momentous ques-
ton has arisen that it may have
been possible that he was the sole
owner of that utility.
Orisaga pleaded not guilty to
robbing the car, but did not estab-
lish the vital fact that he owned
that piece of railway property. When
he goes to Florence, Orisaga will
have the sweet consolation, prob
ably, of knowing that the executive
of Arizona, may take the attorneys
view of the matter, and release him
on parole after he has had few
months time to think over the real
ownership of the property affected.
