English Estimate of Blaine.
LONDON, June 14th.-The Berlin corre-
spondent OF the Times says The Ameri-
cans have undoubtedly emerged from the
Samoan conference with flying colors.
Germany has TO content herself with much
less of political predominance in Samoa
than she claimed at Washington two wears
ago. This result is much more due to the
firm and inexorable attitude of Blaine than
to any political leanings of England toward
the Power which it is her highest aim to
ConCiliate."

NInrnnen Inter,ie,ned.


New YORK, June 14th-Maroney told a
MaU and Express reporter to-day that he
never had photograph of himself. He
and his friends allege that the arrests made
here are simply for the purpose of destroy
ing Alexander Sullivan, il possible, and of
rejecting upon Hon. Patrick Egan. Ma
roney says that Clan-na- Gael men say that
Luke Dillon's object in Chicago is not to
find the murderers of Cronin, but to drag
Sullivan in the mire and make him so
notorious that President Harrison will not
appoint him to public Office. They allege
that Dillon's actions are directed from
New York City, and that John Dewey is en-
gineering the movement which is now
bringing odium on the Irish organizations.
Believes Cronin is Alive.
NEW YORK, June 14th.-James J. Rogers
of Brooklyn emphatically denies that he
was one of the Board which sentenced
Cronin to death. He reiterated the belief
that Cronin was still alive. He expressed
confidence in the innocence of Sullivan,
Maroney and Mcdonald. He said he left
the Fenian Brotherhood of his own will,
and not by dismissal for financial irregu-
larities. Every body knows am honest,
he said.
Arranged by the Clan-na-Gael.
New YORK, June 14th.-Three Chicago
detectives connected with the Pinkerton
Agency began an investigation into the
Clan-na- Gael affairs in Brooklyn yesterday.

are of the opinion that at least one of the
men who murdered DR.. Cronin came di-
rect to Brooklyn from London, and that
the details for Cronin's removal were ar
ranged by the Clan-na- Gael men in that
city.
Another Arrest,
CHICAGO, June 14th.-Thomas Tierney,
an employe of iceman O'Sullivan, is the
latest suspect in the Cronin mystery and
tonight he is occupying a cell at one of the
police stations. The officers claim that his
whereabouts on the night of May 4th has
not been accounted for and that there are a
number of matters connected with the case
in which it has been found that he has not
told the truth. Tierney is member of the
Clan-na Gael.

'nesses in the Cronin case who should be

LONDON, June I4th.-The Tlstes in an
editorial on the Samoan agreements says:
" Perhaps itis as well that Prince Bismarck
has been made to realize that where Amer

Government is very little effected by many
of these considerations which restrain the
action of those European Governments
with which he is more accustomed to deal.
1t is easy to see there might be many reasons
why ii might be expedient for England to
follow the line of policy in regard to
German action in Samoa which it is
natural and necessary for America to pur-
sue. 1t Is not less plain that even Ger
many must think twice OF thrice before
provoking collision with America over
such question. Therefore we rejoice at

MARIC0PAs PROPOSITION TO DROWN
 lis ONT


 The proposed damming of Saltriver in G,la county, which can only benefit Maricopa county, was the subject of discussion on Monday, during lull in the proceedings of the Beard of Supervisors, when everybody was per. mltted to "chip in.' Although the talk at times assumed prismatic col bring, yet the blue very greatly pre- dominated, which may be regarded as anything else than favorable to the proposition of Maricopa to cork the waters of Salt River in our county.
 Not only would such dam sub. merge nearly all the available agricul- turd land in Gila, but the lake formed would divide the Tonto Basin country from the southern portion of the coun- ty almost as completely as an impassa- ble chasm. The only practicable route between Globe, the county seat, and the northern portion of the county IS through upper Salt River and Tonto valleys, and the dam If built would form lake which Surveyor Brecken- ridge, of Phoenix, estimates would be 26 miles long-16 miles on Salt River and 10 on Tonto Creek. and laterally would push its arms up every canyon which de5ouches on thasvatey from the mountains on either side, which would make tue building of a wagon road around the lake an impossibility. Neither would a ierriage of l2 miles or mole be practicable. Another ob- jection is that it would forever cut Globe of from q railroad connection north, where ineSLaustible supplies of timber and coal are to be had at dis- tance of 200 miles and less.
 For the reasons here stated the damming oi Salt River at the box canyon would prove serious detri- ment, if not fatal blow to the eyis- tence of Gila as at present formed. Fortunately the severance of the eonn- ty can not be accomplished until the Government Photographic surveys have been completed, winch will be at least five years yet.
 Surveyor Breckenridge, in his re- port to the Marieopa supervisors, says the pr opposed reservoir would have a capacity o! l03,G5S, ,o40, ,S0o cubic feet, making il the largest reservoir in the United States.
