Court Studies Case to De- termine Jurisdiction In Matter of Deciding Con- trol of Estate of Mrs. Ridgely Wilson

Declaring that he had been called professionally by Rev. Ray c. Harker
 to render his services to Mrs. Ridgely
 Wilson, Attorney Robert Fisher made
 the sensational statement that led to
 the action in Judge Lyman's division
 of the superior court yesterday. The
 hearing originally was for Mrs. Will
 sons competency, but it took a new
 turn, for since the filing of the peti-
 tion, Mrs. Wilson has been taken to Colorado and it remains for the court
 to decide whether it has any jurisdic
 tion in the matter
 According to MT. Fisher, before day. light over a week ago he was called
 to see Mrs. Wilson. who claimed she had been doped. She also said she was under hypnotic influerce Mr. Fisher was given to understand that
 Mrs Wilson had several thousand dol
 lars n the bank in the name of Mrs Tiilman OZias. who had both the keys
 He stated that Mrs. Ozias was medi- | um. Whether it was "spooks" or something else, MT Fisher said Mrs. Wilson was not normal in her actions. She was visiting a friend at the time l. and insisted upon sleeping under the bed.
 That she was in danger of losing her property, which not only consisted of
 the several thousands in cash, but also in diamonds, was another thing that
 worried MT. Fisher. He said sine insist
 ed upon giving her money away, and
 even her husband had said that she
 was insane.
 Late one night she telephoned me
 to take her money and jewels. I told her to wait until morning, when she
 came to my office with a friend. We checked up her account and as it was Sunday and the banks were closed, took the parcel to the sheriffs office. Not being able to deposit it there, again checked up with the sheriff and took the amount to the Adams hotel vault and gave the key to Sheriff Jeff Adams.
 When we stood in the sheriff's of flee that night" continued MT Fisher, MT. Wilson came in and threatened us all. He accused us of Kidnapping his wife"
 The next day, MT. Fisher said, Mrs. Wilson's actions were so peculiar he thought it necessary to call in Dr.
 Beauchamp who said she was out Of her mind and advised him to call in
 the county physician. Dr. Nichols be-
 lieved her to be mentally unbalanced,
 and sent her to the Sisters hospital. She was taken from the hospital by her husband. and her attorney was not advised as to her whereab bouts. Her
 daughter, Mrs. Mabel Clemens. arrived | Friday from Denver and took her | mother home with her
 In the meantime the property is in | the Central bank, and it remains for | the court to say who shall be given 1 control.

.SUPT. j. A. HIGGINS
 AGAIN CANDIDATE
Announcement of Wish to Remain at Head of County Educational
 Affairs

County Superintendent of Schools, J. A Higgins will be a candidate for state superintendent of public instruc- tion according to the announcement yesterday. MT. Higgins has been con- nected with the public schools since he became a resident of Arizona in 1902. For the past five years he has been county superintendent and has been responsible for many innovations in the school system.
 MT. Higgins has succeeded in con- solidating small districts and in get ting the large districts to build good, modern, substantial buildings. Instead of several isolated rural schols the county now has a large number of graded schools employing two or more teachers each. This scheme of consol- idation has made possible not only grading the schools but the offering to boys and girls of the rural communi- ties the advantages of manual train ing and domestic science, something that few rural counties in the United States can boast, and these advantages are secured at smaller per capita tax tIdH the ileillCient One-rOOin SCHOOLS of some of the older states. MT. Rig gins has introduced into each district uniform system of keeping the ac- counts so that it is now possible to tell for what every cent of the money is being spent and by carefully analyz- ing the accounts he has been able to prevent many exhorbitant charges, es- pecially from agents of outside supply 1 houses.

Mrs. Ozias Explains Many Actions of Subject, Called Peculiar By Husband and Attorneys; Denies She Is Medium"

Laughing at the charge that she is 9 hypnotist, Mrs Tillman Ozias yes
 terday denied that she had the slight
 est influence over Mrs. Ridgely Will son.
 That she is a medium is equally ab- surd to Mrs. Ozias and her husband, who is a retired orange grower ana has lived in the valley for the past nine years

 "She is in a highly nervous state. bu,
 that it all.'
 i Dr. E. Payne Palmer corroborates
 Mrs. Ozias statement. He said that
 while Mrs. Wilson had made peculiar
 remarks in his presence, she had 1 friends with her at the time who sub- i, tantiated all she said. He laughed al 1 the hypnotic theory.
 | Mrs. OZias not only does not believe Mrs. Wilson is incompetent, but be-
 lieves she is well able to care for her
 own property. "She is not giving any thing away" she said.
 Mrs. Wilson has property in her own l right. She had an idea she did not have long to live and she wanted to leave all to her daughter in. Denver

The Germans east of Verdun who reached the base of the Lorraine hills Sunday appear now to be in position to bring their guns to bear on the Yer dun forts at the most elective dis tance.
 The advanced German line from Champneuville toward Bras shows that the Germans gradually are straight ening out the kink in the line north of Verdun. Between Verdun and Fort De Marre, which forms the north western corner of the Verdun fortifi- cations, lies the Mouse, and on the western shore is broad stretch of flat meadow land which is commanded by fort De Marra and by it's advanced batteries, and hence immediate further progress in this direction is not ex- pected

News of the presidents decision
 came as a distinct surprise at the
 capitol, where the leaders of both
 houses heard of it first through re-
 ports of the letter received by MT.
 Pou. There were some expressions of
 dissatisfaction, particularly among members of the house at the course adopted. Surprise was expressed that the president should appeal to the rules committee to have brought out, debated and voted on proposals which
 have been kept in the foreign rela tions committee solely because it was believed that the administration did not want them discussed or acted upon.
 It is considered probable that ac-
 tion by both houses may be taken
 Thursday An attempt hardly will be
 made to bring a resolution into the house tomorrow, as under the rules it would require two-thirds vote to permit it's consideration on "cal- endar Wednesday,"
 Speaker Clark. Majority Leader
 Kitchin, Representatives Flood and Foster conferred at the capitol tonight and agreed to urge that the rules com mittee take no step pending action by 1 the foreign affairs committee. and that | the foreign affairs committee should
 be called together at once to report a | substitute resolution, probably an af- | firmative expression of confidence in | the president. The rules committee then would be in a position to report out a rule for immediate consideration | of the matter.
 | Speaker Clark and others maintained | a discreet silence tonight awaiting | what President Wilson might have to say at the White House conference | tomorrow morning. There was ap parent, however. a distinct feeling that
 the method adopted by the president to secure action might put the party lead CTS in a false position. | Newspapermen first took word of the letter to Representative Pou to Speak
