Legality of the Grand Jury.

SAN Francisco, Oct. Gin accordance
with his expressed intention, Attorney Hart
to-day filed in the supreme court lengthy
petition for writ of review to test the
validity Of the present grand jury. This ia
in connection with the Chute case. The
court sitting en- banc ruled that the province
of the supreme court was to decide cases
and not answer questions and that per-
son under indictment was only one to a
question of the legality of grand jury.
Such person could apply for
writ of prohibition. Tho attorney
generals application was dismissed. He
thinks this establishes the legality
of the grand jury. Edgar Raymond,
nephew of Creed Raymond, was fined $500
to-day and sentenced to five days impris-
onment by Judge Wallace, for refusing to
answer the grand jury summons on the
ground that it was not a legal body. He
applied for writ of habeas corpus, which
the susreme court granted.

Report and Recommendations OF the
Acting Governor.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-N. O. Murphy, act
ing governor of Arizona territory, in his
annual report to the secretary of the in
terror, expresses the opinion that the popu-
lation of his territory will reach 10000 peo-
ple before the end of the present fiscal year.
There are at least, he says, 10000 Mormons
in the territory engaged in agriculture and
mining. The following shows the kind and
quality of the taxable property of the ter
ritory, and its valuation according to the
report Of the territorial board for the our
rent year: Number OF acres, 3,444, ,6GS; value
of same, $4602, 12l; value OF improvem ents,
S2,3O2,2 ,2l4 value of city and town lots,
$1,972,257; value OF improvements on same,
of same, 81. 1888. 1863. ! here are also owned
in the state l,767 mules, 72O,94O head of
cattle, and 2SS.727 sheep. There are also
1,OS3 miles Of railway, making the total
valuation OF all taxable property OF the
to ritory $2s,270,4GG. This amount, how
ever, the acting governor regards. MS en-
tirely too low. He is OF the opinion that
SIC, 100000 would be much nearer the facts.
The bonded debt OF the territory is given
Mt S606, 900; interest thereon, $i3 800; float
ing debt, $3.50, ,030; interest the, con. $4,000;
making total Indebtedness of $S55, ,2S0.

the cities of Phoenix, Tucson, Prescott and
Tombstone aggregate $1SS,9SS The total
number of acres entered under the public
land laws during the year ia given as 49,
1893. Mining has always been the foremost
wealth producing industry of Ari-
zona, says the report, and during
the last fiscal year it has been
very active. Mineral exports for 1891, IL is
thought, will exceed that of any previous
year. The acting governor estimates the
copper OUTPUT at &c, 0,000, 600 pounds. the gold
output nt Nj, 132, ,965 and silver at I'll ,6s3 6s5.
During the year very valuable deposits OF

tenn Of tho territory il said to be firmly

pare favorably with any in the country.
The acting governor recommends that
Arizona be admitted to the union ns q
state upon the adoption of u proper consti-
tuition by the people; that all public lands
within her borders be coded by the govern
ment to the territory or state; that all pub
lic lands he surveyed; that school landa bt
