As stated in yesterdays LEDoER,
Coroner Caldwell held a second inquest
on the body Of Frank Moore yesterday.
Visiting Elmwood cemetery, Doctors
Nuitall and Blount extracted the ball
from the head Of the deceased. IL was
the ordinary conical ball. navy size and
Of cartridge pattern. The witnesses
we're all re.examined at the Office Of Cor
oner Caldwell yesterday afternoon, and
the facts elected were similar TO those
developed at the former inquest held by
Esquire Spelman. At the close Of the
examination tho jury returned a YER
dict that the deceased came TO his
death by pisiol.ball through the
brain, directed by a pistol in the hands
Of one j. X. Hanson, instigated by Mrs.
Moore, the wife Of said Moore. de-
ceased" This verdict was signed by
five Of the jurors. the remaining two
dissenting from the verdict, and so re-
turning in writing Warrants were made
out, aud Mrs. Moore aud j. X. Hanson
we're arrested by Constable Shelby The
parties gave $4,000 bonds each to appear
this morning before Esquire Caldwell
for examination.
THE INQUEST MIDDLE.
No doubt the ends Of justice have
been heretofore. and in the present in
stance we're, defeated by the double in.
quest. The law in relation to holding
inquests is plain and explicit on the
points when a magistrate and when
coroner shall hold inquests.
Section 1894 OF the Code authorizes
4" Justices Of the Peace to hold inquests
il the death is by accident, occurring in
the presence Of some person; and if the
jury fnd the death to have been acci
dental, the body may be buried without
notice to the Coroner"
Section 5297 provides " that should
the jury be of opinion that the person
came to his death by the act of another,
by unlawful means, it is the duty of the
Justice to give notice to the Coroner,
who shall hold an inquest in the ordinary
way"
The inquest by Justice Spelman on
Sunday morning, and the inquest held
by Coroner Caldwell yesterday, were
held with open doors. everybody being
admitted. This is bad policy. Inquests
should be held with closed doors; in sus
pected murder cases none should be
present except the coroner officer OF
court, jurors and reporters; the wit
nesses should be under charge Of an
officer, and should be introduced sepa-
rately. The verdict Of a Coroners jury
often duplicates parties, and on that
verdict the Coroner is authorized to issue
warrants OF arrest. When the public is
permitted TO attend inquests the guilty
party who is under no duress can always
secure information in time to escape
arrest. We throw cut these hints, know
ing them to be valuable in legal sense,
and we'll worthy of the consideration OF
the officers holding inquests. The only
time when Justice has a legal right to
hold an inquest on the body of muir
dered man is when the coroner is absent
and cannot be found.

MINING AND OTHER ITEMS.

iINiii biiN lST.NOtp .Nine,' of the 18th inst. :
 Mining in Yavapai county is
 very active and apparently profit
 able. MT. Smith; below Wick
 enburg, is nearly ready to start
 operations at mill and mine.
 Water is flowing through his
 Hume, from the HasSayampa. and the mill of course, works the rich
 est ore from his claim in the Vulture mine.
 On Martinez creek, near Camp Date creek, men are working placer mines, and making con siderable money. Some eight
 miles from this place, and near Antelope Hill, where nuggets of gold have been picked up in large quantities, many men are work ing we'll in the placers.
 Jackson, ShawS & Co.'S mill and arrastraS, in he Bradshaw district, are at work on ore from the War Eagle lode. The Tiger and other companies are still raising ore
 Saturday last, Col. Cany brought 1 to town a sack fHl of beautiful gold ! and silver ores from his lOdes in the Black Hills, about D miles 1 east from Prescott.
 Near the head of Lynx creek, MT. w. Pointer, has his water wheel and arrastras doing good service on ore from the Pointer lode.
 Scores of placer miners are at work on Lynx, Big Bug, Black Canyon and Hassayampa creeks. Lovejoy & Co.,, of lower Lynx creek, are piping away, in their immense hydraulic claims, which claims contain sufficient gravel to give employment to 100 men for the next fifty years.
 Groom's new discoveries in the Cedar valley and Aubray districts, M0have county, are creating con- siderable excitement. Five tons of Gunshot ore is now on the bank, ready for shipment to San Fran cisco. It goes consigned to Vim. B. Hooper X Co.,, and the owners expect to realize $, 900 to the ton
 A 15-stamp mill is to be erected ! in the Wallapai district.
 Mining i'll Pima county is being vigorously. Within miles of Tucson, work is being vigorously prosecuted on old, abandoned mines, in and around which are to be seen an- cient tools and other evidences of former workings Near the So- nora line, hundreds of men are and prospecting. Fur naces, too, are running out the metal, which "makes the mare ge."
 Messrs. Fish & Bennett have just purchased turbine wheel, which they are going to nave on the San Pedro river, and, by next August, they expect to have twenty furnaces in full blast.
 Col. Bakers furnace, at Cerbat, had made another successful run The epizootic, in this sectlon, has not proven very disastrous.
