DELBERT ROPER FACES A JURY
 FOR SHOOTING
Georgia Stanton, Woman in the Case, First Witness
 for the Government.

Without any narrowing details and minus sensational features, tes- timcny is being taken today in the United States District Court before Judge Robert w. Jennings in the case of Delbert Roper, who last Jan uary shot and wounded Mrs. Georgia Stanton. The complaint, and indict ment of the recent grand jury, charges Roper with malicious at tempt to kill.
 Mrs Georgia Stanton was the first witness placed on the stand this morning by the government, repre- sented by United States District At torney James A. Smiser. She testi fled that Roper had befriende1 her and her little boy, had permitted her to eat at his table and furnished her with wood to burn. She further tes- tified that he had secured apart ments next to his in house on the tide flats, as the rent was cheaper, and as she was up against it for a time had assisted her in keep ing the wolf from the door.
 Leading up to the climax resulting in the shooting, Mrs. Stanton testi- fled that she was in Roper's apart ments with a man by the name of Davis, After Davis had left the Roper apartment, Roper remonstrat- ed with her, according to the testi- mony, regarding having men callers. Both being hot-headed. she said the arguments grew warmer and finally Rorer said he would shoot her. He stepped into his bedroom, grabbed a gun from off the wall and shot the woman, the bullet passing through her body on the right side She then left the cabin and went to a neigh bor's house. Later Roper attempted to take his own life.
 Dr. L. O. Sloane testified as tc 1nding the Stanton woman and giv ing her an injection to ease her pain until she was taken to the hos pital Dr. H. c. DeVighne testified as to the nature of the wound

FIRST SALMON TO BE PACKED
 NEXT FRIDAY
Libby, McNeill & Libby Taku Harbor Plant will Can
 Taku River Kings.

What is expected to be the first salmon canned in Alaska this season will be packed next Friday at the Libby, McNeil & Libby cannery al Taku Harbor, according to Capt. A. C. Ahues, superintendent of the plant, who was in Juneau today.
 Yesterday, being a warm day, good catches of king salmon were made at the mouth of the Taku River by the gill netters and several thousand pounds of the fish are now on hand with more to come before the pack ing operations start.
 Cold weather, according to Capt Ahues, has delayed the run at the river for a number of days beyond the usual time.
 Capt. Ahues said he expected to dispatch the tender President, that lowed the disabled Bonito to Taku Harborfi, from this port within a few days. The boat will go to her destination at the Libby, McNeil X Libby cannery in Bristol Bay. Wires have been sent for repair parts for the Bonito and the boat will also leave for Bristol Bay when the parts arrive and have been installed

COAL BIN CASE
 CONCLUDED IN
 DISTRICT COURT
Judge Rebukes Parties for Taking the Law Into
 Their Own Hands.

Testimony !ii the case of w. D. Gross against E. A. Billodeau and wife, resulting from the destruction of coal bin at the Coliseum theatre, under the direction of the latter, was completed at 6:30 o'clock last night before Judge Robert W. Jennings in the United States District Court.
 There were several incidents of importance attached to the closing testimony. LeRoy Vestal, late yes terday afternoon, asked to be placed on the witness stand and Judge Jennings granted the request.
 During the afternoon testimony had been submitted that a certain fence was almost directly against the east side of the Coliseum theatre thereby prohibiting egress from the theatre building through a rear door unless persons jumped over the fence. Vestal testified that seven years ago he had occasion to use the door several times on one night, during theatrical performance, and the fence at that time was fully five feet away from the theatre building,
 yIdge Jennings also gave a re- buke to Billodeau and his wife for the action they took in taking the law into their own hands and de- stroying the coal bin when suit should have been started in a court if they wanted to secure property they claimed belonged to them.
 The case has been on for five days including a night session held last Friday. The cause of the trouble was a coal bin on the east side of the Coliseum theatre building which the Billodeaus claimed was on their tide land property. Early one morn ing. several men were employed under direction of the Billodeaus to- chop out stringers under the coal bin which destroyed the bin and al lowed the coal to drop to the tide flats below.
 MT. Gross brought action for a permanent injunction restraining the Billodeaus from further damaging his property.
 A deposition will be taken from Henry Shattuck, then the case will be submitted to Judge Jennings. Be- ing an equity case it was tried with out a jury and Judge Jennings will render his decision following the re- ceipt of the Shattuck deposition.
