ask Alderman McGuinness to support

 John s. Davis, who was offered the Presidency of the bank in the event of it's reorganization, and de- clined after an examination of it's affairs, said that after learning about Lucas deficit, which the bank peo- pie said was $6OO,OOO, his attention was attracted by the names of per sons unknown to him as business men who were also credited with being indebted to the bank.

BardSIey Pleads Guilty.

Philadelphia, June 9.-John Bardsley, exCity Treasurer, was ar raigned this moIning on seventeen separate indictments charging him with loaning money as public of ficer, deriving gain from the deposit of public money and converting the public money to his own use. He pleaded guilty on every count.
 Two weeks from to-day was set for hearing the evidence, when court will pronounce sentence ac- cording to its weight,
 While arguing for two weeks delay. counsel for Bardsley said he was preparing a statement for Bardsley and it would take most of that time to get it ready. This caused revival of the rumor that Bardsley intends to make a comics sion of everything.
 Before the subcommittee inves- tigating Bardsley's affairs to-day, Mark Davis, Secretary and Treasur- CT of the Bradford mills, owned by him and Bardsley, testified that from Jan 1889, to May 1891, Bards- ley, sent him S46,000 to be used in the business. He had no reason to suspect that this money did not be- long to Bardsley, as in three years Bardsley had given him $722,000 for the same purpose.
 Charles Lawrence, eX-Assistant Cashier of the Keystone Bank, tes- tlfied that he knew nothing of Bardsley's transactions with the bank or due-bills for $93O,00O given him. Three years ago Lucas, the de- ceased President of the bank, called upon him to make some alterations in the personal ledger to cover an overdraft. From this time on till Lucas death he continued to make these alterations, Lucas drawing checks on the bank when he had no money on deposit.

Beat the County.

Judge Kibbey has decided the suit ot Pinal county against the s. P, and NJ & P roads in favor of the latter. The Phoenix Herald states |:
 Three defects in the statutory proceeding were established. First that no proper affidavit has been made to the delinquent tax list ; second that the board of supervis- ors had failed to designate any newspaper for publication of the list and third that the same had never been legally published, Judge Kibbey held that each of these facts must under the tax laws, be clearly established in order to give the court jurisdiction. As they were not proven, the cases must be dis missed.

The mine owned by Mir. Davis on the topmost pinnacle of Sherum's Peak, deserves more than passing notice. For years past the float from thls ledge has been found by old Mohave county prospectors, but they one and all failed to find the vein from whence it came. MT. Davis was chopping wood on the mountain last winter and accident ally stumbled onto the ledge, but knowing nothing about ore did not realize that he had found bonanza. The ore looked to him like lead but in reality it was solid horn silver. The ore will average about one thousand ounces per ton, and there is now an eight inch streak of this ore in sight. Part of the claim has been bonded to Colorado parties. and the balance is being worked by the lucky owner.-Mohave Miner.

The ApaCheS.

George Oaks and Slime Gallen came up this morning from Oso Negro and bring reports of the do- ings of the Apaches which makes the situation one of more serious a nature than had been at first sup posed.
 The killing of Catchum occurred on Wednesday morning about II o'clock. The scene of the murder was at the foot of a long hill. The two drivers had dropped the trail wagon and gone to the top of a long hill, as was customary with heavy loaded wagons. Catchum not feel ing we'll and at the suggestion of the two companions, went to take a rest. This was the last ssen of him alive. The unfortunate boy went to the side of the road and went to sleep under the shade of large oak tree. When found he had one bullet hole through the head and two through the body. After the killing the Indians went to one ofthe wagons and took all of the bedding and helped themselves to canned goods and other provisions, not forgetting to scatter plenty of provisions around on the ground. The boys at the top of the hill had not heard a shot or seen a sign of Indians,
 After leaving the scene of this murder, the band went to chlori- ders camp about eight miles from Oso Negro where an American and two Mexican and an Italian peddler were camped. They attacked this camp shooting the Italian ir. the hip making a probable fatal wound. There was but one six shooter in the camp and owned by the Amer ican who opened fire on theApaches who were four in number, three on foot and one on horseback. As soon as they found that there were firearms in camp. the reds withdrew. The wounded Italian was taken to Oso Negro and was alive when the stage left there.
 On Saturday morning at Miller's ranch a courier broaght in the news from Bachachi that one of Vicuna's vaqueros had been killed in fight with eight Apaches who jumped a party of them the night previous. The Mexican cavalry went to the l killing of Catchum as soon as' no- tified by Jim Kirk of the murder. l There is no telling how many more unsuspecting victims of the mur- derous wretches have gone the same l way of poor Catchum.-Prospec- tor

ALMOST all the cattlemen in the
 county have made sales this spring,
 which will. in a great measure, re-
 lieye the ranges. The Twenty-four
 and Wabash Cattle Companies have
 expressed their intention of selling
 off this fall all their old COWS. The
 above named companies are of the
 opinion that it is better to have the
 money, even though they have to
 sell cheap, in bank to their credit,
 than in old COWS which are almost
 certain to take their departure be-
 fore next spring to that bourne from
 which no bovine has ever returned.
 The HERALD thinks this a good
 move, as it will still further relieve
 the range and insure more feed for the young stock. But, as has been
 before stated, it is only a partial re- lief, and will result in no perma- neEt benefit, for one or two to sell thelr steers down close and get rid of their old COWS, unless all would do so. We have been informed that certain parties in the southern end of the county, have any number of steers on the range from seven to ten years old. that have become boney and angular, with horns from two and a half to three feet long, which will never get fat again on grass, and which no feeder will care to buy. From actual experiment, it has been demonstrated that there is less money in feeding after cattle have passed four years of age, than there is feeding younger stock. Feeders know this and stock raisers must learn it, and the sooner they learn it the betterit will be for their bank accounts. Steers from two to four make larger gains on less feed and consequently are more sought after. It is another well known fact that after a steer passes four, its value Appreciates with each year. and when 1t reaches the age of eight or ten, it is not worth as much as a two-year-old, and will not sell for more than q yenrling to any feeder who understands his business. It is clear from the above facts, that any one who holds beef cattle af- ter they become four-year-olds, is losing money in two ways. He is out the interest on his money just so long as he holds after that time, and his stock is depreciating in value. But some are too obtuse to get this simple fact through their beclouded brain.
