Going for cleveland.

WASHINGTON, Feb. I7.-About twenty republican senators met in caucus this morning. Senator Edmunds sub. mtted a resolution from the Judiciary committee, embodying the views of the republican members, respecting the rights of the senate to obtain information from heads of executive departments. The resolution was approved and it was decided that it be offered in open session of the senate. The resolutions are three in number. The first declares that the action of the attorneys general in refusing to furnish information, when called for by the senate, no matter what the motive may he was reprehensible. The second declares that the senate has the right and may call upon heads of departments for information regarding removals, and if the information is not furnished, as re- quested, the senate will not confirm the appointees. The third condemns the dis regard of the law, which requires, Tn se- lectons for office, precedence to be given to honorably discharged union soldiers and sailors. It is understood that the re- solutions will be formally laid before the Judiciary committee at their next meet ing with a view to leaving them reported to the senate immediately thereafter.

The battle scene in the county court was closed yesterday. Ginn was dis. charged and an end to this seemingly endless suit, will evidently be reached. Whatever side succeeds in obtaining a verdict in this case, will have the pleas- ure of remembering that it was the mos, fercely contested suit ever brought into the courts of Arizona. Every inch of ground has been hotly contested; every proposition ably combatted. It is, in fact, a contest of legal giants. Every attorney in the case is whole law. library within himself The EPITAPH has witnessed with pleasure the many peculiar and bewildering phases of this case; the vigorous, but good natured tilts between the attorneys employed; the perfect good feeling and harmony which have characterized the proceedings
 throughout the entire suit reflect credit alike upon the court and the afable at torneys in the case.

place. To this Mir. Huntington replied! "New York is a great port, but it is mistake to suppose that it is the whole country. True, have important in- terests centering here, but those interests are closely identified with the Trunk railway system that stretches across the continent, and when this is nearly fully developed, as it soon will be, expect the bulk of the foreign grain trade of the west will find it's natural deep-water out let through the terminus at Newport News. The port charges there, com pared thone of New York, are mere bagatelle, and our storeage facilities at all seasons of the yea, arc, or will be enough, to accommodate the commerce of the continent. Steamships of the heaviest draught can come right up to our wharves and elevators and take on cargoes at all stages of the tide, and with such ready access to the sea that they can come in and go out without the as sistance of pilots, which are very impor- tant considerations when the question is one of cost"

Few phases of our modern civilization are more remarkable, than the certainty and celerity with which fugltives from iustlce are now arrested. A few weeks ago a farmer and his wife were most brutally murdered in Sonoma county, California, by a Chinese servant. The clue to the murderer was very slight the chances of recognizing the criminal slim, as, to any but the celestial vision, one Chinamen looks as much like
 another as two peas in pod, while their names are a complicated mystery to Caucasians. Yet, notwithstanding all these obstacles, the brutal murderer Of the Wickershams was this week arrested
 on the other side of the Pacific ocean, in
 Yokohama and will at once be brought over, to stand his trial for his life. Elec- .tricity and extradition treaties have made this world of ours too small for criminals.

The grand jury has indicted Na-dis- ough, the Indian squaw, who was found in possession of stolen horse, There seems to be little doubt that this girl is as great sufferer from the Indian outbreak as any of the whites-that her relations had been murdered by the hostiles, and that she herself, having been held in UT willing captivity, was making her way back 10 white settlement when capturei. We believe the general sentiment among the people of Tombstone is that she should be set free. It looks rather small for d nation of fifty millions, alter waging war for nearly year on one hundred and fifty renegades, without cap. turing single warrior, to make an exam. pie of this girl. The grand jury say they were unable to take any other course on the evidence before them. It is to be hoped that the case may be dismissed when it comes before the court.

A Rival to New York,

NEW YORK, Feb. I7.-Monday or Tuesday next numerous deputations of merchants, representing the Chamber of Commerce and the Maritime association, will again proceed to Washington, to argue before the shipping committees of both houses of congress in favor of the six'y-cents per mile subsidy scheme. Another thing that troubles them is the steady increase of western grain ship ments at Newport News, by the Chesa- peake and Ohio road. Some of them intimated to C. P. Huntington that they did not see how the great capitalist, who has so many financial interests identified with New York City, can justify this di- version of commerce from the latter

Especial to the ,EPiTAPH.l
 TUCSON, Feb. I7.-No information of satisfactory character has yet been re- ceived concerning the failure, announced in mercantile circles here on Monday, of Ellis & Co.,, at Phenix. Thus far noth- ing has been learned here or can be ob- tained at Phenix, beyond the fact that the finn had assigned to M. Heller & Co.,, of San Francisco. Absolutely nothing is known of the true state of affairs as the members of the firm are all now in San Francisco, and the persons in charge of the business say they are unable to make any statement, owing to the mixed condi. tion of affairs, bet express confidence that Ellis & CO. will be able to arrange with their creditors so as to continue in busi- ness

Crafty Cannon.

SALT LAKE, Feb. I7.-The train with George o. Cannon on board arrived here at a. m. The prisoner was prom ptly taken before Judge Zane, and his bail
 fixed at $45,ooo. Two military officers and twenty-seven men escorted the special train, it being determined to pre- vent another escape. When Cannon jumped from the train, he fell on his face and shoulder, breaking his nose and bruising himself terribly. When founds he had two loaves of bread and bottle of water in his pocket. It is believed that he had confederates and missed them by jumping off at the wrong place.
 Marshal Ireland confirms the report that Cannon offered the Nevada sheriff, who arrested him, SI.ooo, to permit him to escape.

Eastward the Star of Chinese Empire takes it's course. There, in the home of the sycophantic prating Chinese humanitarian, their social status will be superior to that of the honest laborlng man. Let Massachusetts, Tn the good ness of her old heart, take them to her bosom. There was day in the history of the old commonwealth, when they executed individuals for being in league with the devil, or rather witchcraft. There will be another day in her history, in the near future, when the Mongolians will have to flee for their lives. Let the good worK go on.

correspondent writes to us

A correspondent writes to us from Denver: "I will take this occasion to in form you that the postal service in Arizona and New Mexico is most damn able, as far as the forwarding of news paper matter is concerned. Only about 90 per cent. of the paper mail forwarded to us succeeds in reaching us and nearly all of it is delayed from one to four days en route." What our correspondent says is very true. It is high time that the postoffice department investigated postal affairs in this territory.

The movement to exclude low priced laborers. does pot seem to be confined to the Pacific coast, nor.to the Chinese. A New York paper mentions that the workingmentd New Rochelle are taking steps to drive Chinamen and Italians from that village. It is hard to say where this movement will end. Possibly, it may originate new "know-nothing" or "American" party.
