Interesting appreciation of the cour- tesies extended teh Essanay company while here filming "Ruggles of Red Gap" is contained in the following let ter to The Phoenix Chamber of Con- merce from Taylor Holmes, star of the organization and ''Ruggles' himself:
 The Essanay company, which has been making 'Ruggles of Red Gap in Phoenix, has not only enjoyed the eli mate of this beautiful city, but the hospitality of the people.
 There is an atmosphere of cordial good fellowship that makes for proper mental attitude of the members of the company. It is unnecessary to men, tion specifically any of the many per- sons who have shown us special atten- tion-it is the way of the west that they do not care for publicity.
 However, we so desire that your honorable body know of our gratitude to it, in it's efforts executed by it's able secretary. and also by the people of Phoenix"

CLEVER PLAY |S
 HIGH $ PROMISE

"The Arrival of Kitty one of the best three-act comedies of the year, Is to be staged in the high school auditorium on January 10 by the EN- precision class of the school.
 The play will be an innovation. in that the members of the cast have studied the structure ard formation of the drama in it's elements before attempting the production of play. Every player, therefore, will be ac. quainted with the dramatic possibili- ties of his part, as well as mastering the details of his acting.
 The play is light comedy of per plexities. misfortunes, double person. alities, wit, and clever action. The plot is amusing and keeps the aud fence constaI.tly in laughter, as the various problems and perpleXities un- fold themselves-the bewilderment of William .Winkler and Benjamin More

INQUEST ALONE
 ID DETERMINE
 CAUSE IF DEATH

That the cause of the death of D. w. Nickels will not be revealed officially until the inquest is held in Coroner Whceler's court at o'clock Wednes- day afternoon, was the statement of Dr. Win Wylie yesterday.
 Dr. Wylie, who with Dr. II. K. Beau champ and pr. w. W. Watkins, con- ducted the autopsy for thesstate. stated that the findings would not he an nounced until the inquest. They re- fused 10 discuss the matter until that iimc.
 Besides the physicians appointed by Coroner Wheeler to conduct the post mortep. Dr. W. o. Sweek, Dr. O. H. Brown and Dr. k. W. Craig, represent ing the family, were present.
 pr. Swcek said that the result of the autopsy did not reveal anything that would lead US to expect anything else than carbon poisoning" He declared that the diagnosis given by him in Coroner Wheelers court was correct and that pneumonia, which developed in Mir. Nickeps case, was a usual com plication of carbon monoxide poison Ing.
 Dr. Brown also believes that death was caused by complications resulting from carbon monoXide poisoning. Dr. Brown, who has been in contant at tendance at Mir. Nickels bedside. did not make his statement as a result of he post mortem but from what he 'ound as the attending physician.
 Coroner Wheeler was indignant last evening at the statement in an after noon paper which ceridited him with saying the immediate cause of the death of Mir. Nickels was pleuro pneu- monia. He denied ever having made such a remark which he said was ludi- crous in view of the fact that he had called for a post mortem examination.
 "If I had kRown the cause of death ] should not have put the state to the expense of an autopsy. Furthermore the purpose of the inquest is to arrive at the conclusion which I could not have reached before hearing the evil dencc. | am as much at sea in this case as l was when first notified of the tragedy on Christmas morning"
 Coroner Wheeler said that he had set the continued inquest over Mrs. Nickels for 10 o'clock Wednesday morning when he expected that the findings of the San Francisco patho- logical laboratory would be checked with the findings of the local laboor- Atory.
 With one exception the jury is the same in both cases. Owing to the ab- sence from the city yesterday of G. H. Quinn, w. F. White will serve in his stead in Mir. Nickels case The re- maining members of the jury are, E. J. Doyle, A. L. Moore, F. w. Huber W. J. Toohey and Lebeus Chapman.
 Neither Mir. NiclSels nor his wife left wills. according to the petition in the office of the clerk of the superior court by Selim J. Nicholson yesterday The petition asked for the appoint ment of Mir. Nicholson, who was a ,lose friend of the couple. as adminis- srator of their estates and the hearing January IA.
 The value of Mir Nickels estate is estimated at s2O,000, sl0.0O0 of which was given as real estate and the other

 The two little children of the couple Thomas age five and Mildred, three years of age, are to remain in Phoenix for the present at least. Miss Maud Tanton, sister of Mrs. Nickels, is leaving tonight with the two bodies for the family home in Peoria. After the funeral she will hold a consulta- tion with eastern relatives who will decide on the proper and best disposi- tion of the orphans.
 Mrs. T. l.. Stoff, a cousin of MT. Nickels and Harmon Hickey. a close friend of the dead man, are here from Los Angeles to do what they can in re- lieving the terrible situation. It is possible that they will stay in Phoe- nix until the return of Miss Tanton from Illinois.
