LOS ANGELES. Oct. 14.-Los An geles authorities have dropped out of the investigation into the death of CtN x. Dernier, clubman of Phoenix. Ariz. Chicago and Los Angeles. whose body was found in an irrigation canal near the Arizona capital September F.
 We do not understand the action Of the Phoenix officers in asking us l. watch a certain man and then warning us not to arrest him. said sheriff W. L. Traescr of Los An icles. In view of that action we are taking no further steps in the case.
 But we shall he more than glad to cooperate with the Arizona su- thorities in any definite scheme"
 Phoenix officers have been in Los Angeles several oays in an effort to  obtain evidence uncoyerinc the cause O the mysterious slayiug of Dernier.
 Theories that woman w;s imrli- ca;ed in the death of the ahoenix Clubman have been used as basis for their work. but so far they nave been unable to lind anything that would justify an arrest in th" ,ase
 The sher.fs office in Phoen.V ds. cared that the arrest of a prom.uen; cluhman of that city and los An. geles was expected within the nes, few hours in connection with the Der nier murder but so far such an ae. toa has failed to materialize.
