Gone ou, into the Cleaning /.

A>report WAS current on the streets
yesterday that Arthur Maxwell, who
formerly kept the Drover House In
this city and who more recently was
engaged 10 he hotel business at For
syth. had disposed OF his business there
and gone east, taking with him some
personal property in the shape Of fast
horses, etc. Maxwell Was under in
dictment for an assault committed in
July last on reporter for the YELL
LowsToNE JOURNAL and was to appear
before the district court at the ensuing
term for trial. Al the preliminary
examination he was put under bonds
Of Sl.c0O to appear before the grand
Jury, but II seems that when he ives
indicted no further bond was required
OF him. sgd Paget and Johu Zook
were sureties on the fist bond.
Neither Of the parties are now in
town, but IL Is claimed by their
friends that they are not holden, as
the conditions of their engagement
were fulfilled when Maxwell appeared
before the grand jury. There appears
10 be screw loose somewhere II the
facts are rs stated.

When it appears that more than two

mony Of counting the votes, nr That
the Judges repaired to a private room

at Precinct 81 was not that ii was al
most unanimously democratic but
that there was false and fraudulent
return made under circumstances that
brand II as an act of fraud. Probably
the same circumstances that made
precinct "a so strongly de .nocratic,
operated to make Bonner precinct
nearly as strongly republican, bur the
two democrats who voted at Bonner
had their votes counted, while there
were five or six republicans who voted
at precinct "a who were ignored. This
is one point Of difference between

Problem from Arizona.

.h Washington, D. C., dispatch of Scpl. 10th says, Hon. John Weir, of Tucson. Arizona, is Tn tbe citY 10 urge a settlement of q difficulty that is just now puzzling Gov. Woihey. The Democratic local officials who are still drawing salaries insist that their sue eessors can not be appointed by the Governor until the Territorial Legis- lature meets 10 confirm them. Hence they propose to remain in office, Gov. Nofiey wants to know if there is not sufficient Federal authority which may be exercised to cause the immediate retirement of hls Democratic subor- diBates. Mir Weir submitted the mat ter o Secretary Noble and Attorney General Miller to-day. and together they called upon the President. Since Arizona is still a Territory of the Uni ted States the Attorney-G General de- eldes that the Governor may summa- rily remove his subordinates and ap- point their successors at once, and that their conIirmations may await the as. sembling of the Territorial Legisla- ture. Mir. Weir also urged that the Administration stand firm for tue ex. clusion of Mexican lead ores and the protection of American miners in Montana as well as Arizona.

Electricity.
 
 "Tho great development in electri- city will be, 1 am firmly convinced, sad Mr, Edison to an interviewer Tn Paris, lin discovering more ecsno- mical process of producing 1t, At present we only get from coal con 5umed about i or , per cent. of is latent electricity. The rest s wasted in heating water, expanding steam, pushing pis;ons, turning wh -els, and finally causing dynamo-machine to operate. A process will ultimately be fonnd for extracting 90 to 95 per cent. of the latent electricity directly from the coal Then steam engines will be abolished, and that day is not far of now. Already we can get electricity direct from coal to the amount of 90 per cent, but only for experimental purposes. When l was on shipboard coming over l used to sit on deck by the hour and watch the' waves. It made me positively savage to think of all that power going to waste. But we'll chain if up one of these days, along with Niagara Falls and tba winds. That will be the electric mil lennirm."
