.HULAHAN. TH|RD0 Of MEN WHO ARE
IMPLICATED IN MURDER, IS HERE

the sheriff's office finally discovered
him in Fort Worth and deputy from
the office left on Friday night for Tex
as. While there seems no doubt but
that Hulahan disposed of the hay it
seems almost certain that he had no
connection with the crime. His testi
mony will be the most important next
to that of Anderson and it is on his
evidence that the state hopes to secure
the conviction of Croft.
The arraignment of Croft set for
last Monday was continued indefinitely
and it is believed that the reason was
that the officers awaited the arrival
Of Hulahan before the court proceed
ings. afS
IN the office of the clerk of the su-
periOr court yesterday the appraisers
of the Stephen Hughes estate, Michael
z. Curry, James H. Woods and David
Wallace appraised the estate at $10,
393.61. A paragraph was written in the
document to the effect that hay had
been stolen and unlawfully sold from
the Hughes ranch and perhaps other
personal property the amount and
value of which was not given.
The amount due the estate on, checks
alleged to have been forged by Croft
is given as s731.25 while the sum for
hay "unlawfully disposed Of is given
at $1,677.70.

HIS OBJECTION
IS OvERRULED

E. ]. Woodson objected to being told
by Policeman Bob Anderson that he
would have to move his hire car from
the sidewalk near the Southern Pacific
depot He said it wasn't any of the po-
liceman's business and that he had bet
ter run along. But the officer didn't
run along. But instead he laid the heavy
hand of law on Woodson's shoulder
and Informed him he was under arrest.
Just when it appeared that Anderson
would have to employ more than gen
tlenesS in the handling of his prisoner,
Policeman Ellis stepped into the focus
of the camera and laid another heavy
hand on Woodson's other shoulder AS
Woodson has but two shoulders, no
other officers appeared and none were
needed.
All this happened early yesterday
afternoon. Later in the afternoon
WOodson tried to tell Police Magistrate
Thomas that the police were not treat
ing him fairly, intimated that he knew
other chauffeurs were paying to be al
lowed to do as they pleased and finally
paid a fire of twenty dollars which the
judge said he thought would be enough
to teach WOodson that officers must
be respected when they are perform
ing their duty.
According to Anderson and Ellis,
Woodson left the city hall in anything
but pleasant frame Ur mind and VOW
ing that he would get the men" who
had Inundated him.

The remainder of the day was spent

Declaring that newspaper accounts
which implicated him in the murder of
Stephen Hughes the Tempe rancher,
prompted him to hide from the officers,
Carlisle Hulahan yesterday frankly
discussed the case with the county at
torney and representative of the sher-
ifs office who were responsible for
his arrest and return from Fort Worth.
Hulahans only connection with the
case it is alleged is that he disposed
of the hay owned by Hughes, at the
bidding of Croft and Anderson. He is
being held on the charge of larceny
and will appear as material witness
for the state in the murder case which
has aroused such bitter feeling both
in Phoenix and the southside. Hulahan
is in the city Jail in order that he
might not communicate with Croft
or Anderson, who are being held by
the county authorities.
Ever since Croft and Anderson were
arrested in FL Paso on January 29 for
the murder of Stephen Hughes the Of
ficers have been searching for Hulahan.
Anderson, who confessed he killed
Hughes with an axe in accordance with
the plan outlined by Croft, connected
Hulahan with the crime Shortly after
the alleged murderers left Tempe,
Hulahan. who was employed by W. j..

parts unknown. BY never ceaSing in

The story has many thrills and the
love interest is, of course, particularly

"The Iibertine"

Julius Stieger's daring motion pic
ture production, 1.-THE Llbertine," COM
ing TO the Empress theater Saturday
and Sunday featuring John Mason and
Alma Hanlon, is story of modern
life as it exists. A sermon delivered
with sledge hammer blows. it depicts
the life of the libeTtine, who closes the
eye Of understanding while shrewdly
working on the feminine emotion. He
is shown striking at the innocent girls
in the offices, shops and factories, and
with his suave manner leads them to
ruin
It is story plainly showing that the
greatest instrument of vice is the fatal
lure of wealth and luxury, vain as it
is to the young girls of big city,
This plea too often makes innocence
the easy prey of "The Libertinc.'
It is a picture that has startled the
public in every city where it has been
shown. 1t is the first time that a pic
ture of this kind has ever been shown
on the screen. John Mason enacts the
role of the male vampire" and Alma
Hanlon is seen as one of his victims
There are a number of intense dra-
matte situations, superb settings and
exceedingly strong supporting casts.
Special music is arranged for the pic
ture.
