order that he be held to answer for the
same, and that he be committed to the
sheriff of Los Angeles county, with bail
fixed in the sum of 81 500.
Shortly after the conclusion OF the
case Chadwick and his attorney ap-
peared in Judge McKinley's court and
filed petition for writ OF habeas
corpus on the ground that Chadwick
was held illegally, the evidence being
insufficient to warrant the courts
action. AS the testimony in the case
had not been transcribed, Judge McKin-
ley set the case for hearing on the 3lst
inst, and released the petitioner mean
while upon bonds in the sum OF 81 800,
which were furnished by Mrs. Emma
Hunter and j. Chas. Duncan.
Ex-Police Patrol Driver J. M. Pond
appeared before Justice Lockwood yes
terday afternoon for examination on the
charge of forgery preferred against him
by H. Siegel, and was held to answer
under bonds in the sum of 81 900, in de-
fault of which he was remanded to Jail.
He was subsequently arraigned upon a
similar charge preferred by J. w. Hodge,
who accused him of having forged the
name of P. A. Havelick to a check on
the Farmers and Merchants Bank for
$40 on June 10th last, and was ordered
to appear for examination on August
18th, bail being required meanwhile in
the sum of 81 900.
Jas. M. Napper appeared before JUS
tlce Austin yesterday morning, and after
arraignment upon the charge of forgery,
demanded an immediate examination.
The court being engaged in another
case, Napier was ordered to appear at 2
o'clock in the afternoon; but at that
hour the district attorney filed an affi-
davit in support of a motion for con-
tinuance, on the ground of the absence
OF material witness, and the court re-
set the case for examination on Monday
next, the defendant being committed to
Jail meanwhile in default of bail in the
sum of 81 1000.
Assemblyman James M. Damron has
been away from the city since Saturday
night, and now there is offered for his
arrest reward of $4,000 by the sheriff
and one of $500 by his bondsmen. Night
before last several officers spent much
time and some effort in following clue
which ended in nothingness. The ab-
sent legislator is described on the
sheriff's circular as follows
"James M. Damron, aged about 40
years; feet 10 inches to feet; weight
100 pounds; rather long, and bends for
ward while walking owing to long
strides; weak eyes, and wears eye
glasses in reading or writing and
unless avoiding identification will have
these on all the time; wore medium
dark moustache; may shave; no
whiskers; dark hair and fair complex
ion; usually wore black soft hat, dark
clothes, frock coat rather long; walks
quickly with long stride; talks rapidly
and very often appears wandering from
source of conversation. He chews to-
bacco and spits necessarily and his lips
generally show it. Thick lower lip,
looks as though it was split some time.
Is lawyer. Plays cards and visits fast
houses"
The last sentence tells the assembly
mans story very succinctly.

FORGERY CASES.
A Number of Them in Court-The
Reward for Damron.

Reward for Damron.
At II O'Clock yesterday the examina-
tion of the case against j. S. Chadwick
and j. M. Damron, charged with forgery,
was renewed in Justice Austin's court.
There being no additional evidence, the
case was briefly argued and submitted to
the justice, who rendered his decision as
follows
SIN view of the fact that it has been
proved to the satisfaction of the court
that a forgery has been committed, and
that one j. M. Damron, co-defendant
with the defendant Chadwick, who is
now beyond the jurisdiction of this court,
is alleged from the evidence to have
committed forgery, yet the testimony
shows that the defendant Chadwick is
so closely connected with such forgery
that it is clearly the duty of this court
to hold the defendant Chadwick to
answer to the superior court and have
the charge determined by jury. 1t
therefore appearing to me that the
offense in the within dispositions men
toned, to wit, forgery, has been COM
mitted, and that there is reasonable and
just cause to believe that the within
named j. S. Chadwick is guilty thereof,

AN ENORMOUS BURDEN,

The total length of the road in this county WAS 147 miles, and "A miles 10 Prescott had been con >tructed. The Secretary of the
 Territory states that the debt oi Yavapai county is s763,ooo ano the assessment "between S6, 900 and S7,ooo, ooo." There are seventy-three miles of road yet to be built, from its present terminus, Prescott, to the south line of the coqnty, for which YAvapAi county must make further issue of bond, amounting to S29a.ooo, making d county debt of sS55,eoe oF about B per cent. upon It's taxable as sessment {taking that at s6, 800, ooo) and a per capita county deb; Of nearly SSs. taking the popula tion, at about Io,6uo as stated in sthe report of tlps senate com mittee.

Full Tezt of President HarrIsOn's Veto Of Hae Maricopa County Rail-
 road Subsidy Bill.

The following is the Presidents message yetoing the bill to author ize the Board of Supervisors of Supervisors of Maricopa County, Arizona, to issue bonds at the rate of S4,000 per mile in aid of the construction of certain railroad:
 He says: This bill seems to have passed the House under g misappre- hension of its true scope and effect. h the report of the Committees on Territories it is said, "By the terms # the bill the county receives bonds in payment of the money proposed to be advanced" In fact the bill lid not provide for a loan to be secured by bonds, but for a sub scripsiop of stock, How far this mistake may have effected the pas sage of the bill, of course, cannot be known.

A PECULIAR ELECTION.


 The bill does not submit the question of granting aid to a vote pf the people of the county or to confer direct authority upon the Supervisors to issue bonds. It is said, however, that in April, 1889, an election was held to obtaln the views of the people upon the ques ion It does not appear from any oapsr submitted 10 ne, who were the managers Of tke SO called elec> tion; what notice, if any, was given; what qualification on the part of the voters wasEinsisted up- on, if any, or in what form the question was presented.
 There was no law providing for such an election, it being wholly voluntary. The election was, of course, under the management of those who favored the subsidy and was conducted without any legal restraints as to voting or certifica- ton. 1 have asked for a state ment of the vote by precipcts and have been given what purports to be the vote at IF points. The toial affirmative vote given was I795 and the negative 134, but of the affirmative yQle I543 were at Phoenix and lS8 at a town very near Phoenlx.
 SUFFICIENT GROUND FOR A VETO
 If there were no other objections 10 the bill, 1 should deem this one sufficient, that no provision Is made for submitting to 2 vote of tke people at an election after due notice and under the sanction oi law the question whether this sub> scription shall be made.
 But again the bill proposes to suspend for this case the proyis- ions of the act of July goth, 1866, forbidding municipal corporations to subscribe to the stock, or loan. ing credit to the other corpora, tions; also forbiddIng corporations from creating a debt in excess of 4 per cent of their taxable proper ty at the last assessment. The law was intended 70 give the people of the Territories that protection against municipal debts, which were secured to the people ot most of the states by constitutional lim- itatlons.

The Sanitary Commission.

Capt. Isaac N. Town, of Calabasas, came in Saturday from Phenix, and remained in the city yesterday, leav- ing for home on the afternoon train. He had been attending a meeting of the Territorial Live Stock Sanitary Commissioners at the capital city, of which he is a member from Pima county. MT. Town says the Board has a perplexing problem on hand now. There is a serious prevalence of gland CTS among horses in the vicinity of Tempe and other portions of the Salt River valley, for which the Board is at loss for an effective remedy. The law does not authorize the Board to have the diseased horses killed, as they are native stock. If diseased stock is brought into the Territory the Board is authorized to kill it, but for an epi- demic among native animals there is no such drastic remedy provided.
 With this exception the stock in all parts of the Territory are reported to be in most excellent condition, and Mir. Town is of the belief that there is brighter future near at hand for Ari- zona stockmen.-Tucson Citizen.
