The cause that led to the shutting down of the cSncentrators at the Tevls mining district YVES the moist state Of the weather. It Is absolutely neceeSsaIy in dry concentrating to have the pulver- iZed mass free iroiI moisture. IL Is con- templates to plac. T dryer At the works which will bs inexpensive, and at the same time obviate any further trouble on account of the humidity of the at mosphere.
 The Reymert mine is to be shut down in February. This property in Pinal county has been in charge for two years past of Wallace Gorbatt, formerly of the Contention mine If this place, and a large amount of money expended upon it. The cause of the suspension of oper- ations is due to the lack of water and stamping machinery.
 The mines owned and worked by pr. Patzke, O'Connor and Brooks in the MonteZuma canyon, Hauchuca mount aims. have been sold to eastern parties prices not stated; but 1t is understood that concentrating works will be placed on the properties. The value of this can be understood when the fact is published that the former owners hauled it to Bis bee and sold it to the Queen company, at a good profit,

THE CAPITOL Speaker Reea's Fitness for
 His PtsitiOn OPENLY ACKNOWLEDGED By Such Democratic Leaders as
 flower.
OPENLY ACKNOWLEDGED
The Election of D. B. Hill Causes None but Unfavorab1e Comment in the Senatorial Circle at
 Washington
WASHINGTON, D. O., Jan. 30, 1861.


 Speaker Reads eminent fitness for the position he holds, and hOnors by hold Ing, was meyer more plainly demonstrat- cd than during the present week, when the democratic members have been lit tie better than mob of hoodlmus, in both in theirmanners and tbeirlanguage. It has been openly acknowledged by such demOcrotIc leaders as Representa- tive Flower that 1t was their intention to delay the necessary business in the House, such as the regular annual ap- propriatiOn bills, ill order to make 1t impossible for the House to act on the amendments to the Federal election bill after that measure passes the Senate. before the session expires by limitation. This is the first time that the leaders of a political party have had the audacity to publicly state that they were endeav- bring to force an extra session of Con gress upon the country, and the fact is not likely to be forgotten when the peo- pie again get chance, throug.. honest ballot boxes, at the democratic party.
 When Speaker Reed in the exercise of his legal authority under the rules of the House moved Tn opposition to the democratic programme of senseless ob struction, it produced a scene that would have disgraced ward meeting held in the toughest ward of the tough est city of Amerlca. Representative Mills who, from the fact that he is the lead, ing Southern democratic candidate for Speaker of the next House should have some idea of the respect due to the pre- siding officer of the House, showed hlm- self to be both bully and blackguard by acting like a man crazed from drink; he rushed down the center aisle of the House shaking his fists and shouting oaths and .blasphemy that would have caused his arrest, if indulged in upon the street. He personally abused and blackgUarded the Speaker in language that ou ghL to bring blush of shame to the cheeks of any gentleman. Amid 1t all MT. Reed was calm and dignited. The next day MT. Reed said: "The chair desires to say ty the House that one req son why he expects in due time that his services to this country will be appre- ciated is because of the viriunt attacks that have been made upon him, the per sonal nature and character of which this house can understand The chair has endeaYored at all times to admInis ter the rules of this House as he under stood them; and as the House has sus- tained his decisions. the chair will con- tinue so to do as long as he occupies the exalted position to which he has been elected by the House of Representatives. This little speech furnished as striking an illustration of unruffied dignity as was ever exhibited under like provoca- tion. The democrats have resumed their toct;oc of laavinu the HOusa in a bOdy to break quorum.
 The election of Governor Hill te sue ceed Mir. Evarts in the Senate has excit- ed very little comment here,and that lit tie IS not favorable to the Senator-elect.

There are not less than ten diff ferent veins of coal cropping out on the lands owned by Camou Bros, ranging from Is inches to feet in thicness. The most extensive working on the property is but l1O feet under cover. This valua ble property will be rendered available to consumers by the constructions of the Sonora, Sinaloa < Chihuhua rail road.

MONTEZUMA,s BADGE.
Now Lying Among the Curiosities in
 a Vienna Museum,

Among the many articles of interest in the new Natura. History Museum at Vienna, perhaps nothing has been more discussed than an old Mexican relic which is preserved with great care in glass. This relic, which Is known as the field badge of Kng Montezuma, has laid for three hundred years in the Embrase collection, wRere it was frs [ cataiogued as II Moorish hat of long heavy ,giistening green ard.gold feathers,
 One investigator held that 1t was an an IDdion hat, another an Indian apron; but in 1920 it was at last known ty be Mexican badge of high rank, and through Ferdinand Hochstetter it was proved to be the genuine field dec- oration of King Montezuma, captured by Cortez in 1920 after the battle of Drum ba.
 This battle was followed by the wild flight of the Mexicans, and Cortes sent the standard hnd wardrobe of the King with much gold to the Emperor Char les V of Spain. The latter gave the standard to Pope Clement VII who sent it to grand duke Ferdinand of Tyrol for the Embrase collection.
 It is shaped like an egg, and is made from the tail feathers of the bird of paradise, which have glitter like gold over their red, green and blue c7lOrs. The moth had partly destroyed it, but of the 800 original feathers only forty one were very much injured. and those have been replaced by new ones and the former beauty is fully restored.

THE LEGISLATURE.
Hon. Thos. Driscou Talks of the
 Body's Workings.

The Tucson contingent of the present legislature came in an masse on Satur- day afternoon from Phenix, councilmen house members, clerks and "log rollers, the body having adjourned Saturday morning out of respect to the lamented Secretary WindOm.
 They are all full of their work, and talk freely and commendingly of the doings at the hyuses of legislature assembled at PhenlX,
 Hon. Inoa Driscoll, of Pima's repuD- licans, who carried one of the largest majorilies at the late election, was seen and talked to by q CITIZEN reporter on
 SaturGay night and expresses himself as Wei pleased with the Sixteenth legisla- ture.
 The work being done at the session is progressive. and no time is lost in dilly- dallying, the business being put through as speedily as is consistent with the at tention it needs. Mr. Dsiscol mention ed among other important measures to be passed upon the wholesale county making now atteIn pLing.
 "I think" said C, ''thi.t only Ui.e new county vii De plade iiJ this Sesst"n; that Is CocUnlno, and Is made Dy dividing 1avapal. Tins measure Is q good one nd ShOalj lHd almost surely Gili pass There Is IO OpLosltloh to the division oi the pfeseut lav&paI COGaLy by It's ln- bablJant tS, ali FrSn there desiring thaf the change Lv made"
 A different aspect greeLs tine new county of Miles. his, Mr Driscoll re- ports, Is merely ;i repetition of the at tempt to Cred 5e sierra Bonita county at the iasL scsslUE. |; Is to be made from Cochise and Graham inn .biIants, both of W mich are fighting the measure The proposed county will take off 60 of the yO m les of railroad in Cochise, some SG0J,UC0 worth of property from Graham and S200.0J0 of Cochlse. Wilcox is to be the co Gnty seat. The measure is gener- ally uufavorably regarded by the legisla- ture, l. being looked ubon as merely measure to create new set of off ces and office holders. One of the strongest lighters Tn the lobby for the county Of Miles IS Hon. Dan Ming, who is strong in declarations that people he is repre- sentlng must have it." The Hon. Dan acknowledges that he has hankering to be the first sheriff of county Miles. In opposition to the project Judge J. T. Fitzgerald of Graham, Mir. Ming's old partner, is maSing weighty battle. MT. Driscol! opiE- 5 that the measure will not pass.
 The repu plican members next to not putting III from their own party to the speakers of the houses are generally pleased with the present incumbents. Especially are they rejolceG that Mir. Zulick anu nr Parish failed of their ambitions Uo oc ;upy chief positions in the lawmakers assembled as the Six teenth legislature Mir. Driscoll states that neither are chairman of any inn Dortant committees, and particularly are they entirely left out on the Yuma prison inspection committee.
 Gov. Irwin Is thoroughly well liked. Democrats speak in his praises as strong ly as do his own party. He will, our informant thinks, give Arizona strong and effici mt executive.
 The work of the present session will r1bably be completed within the limit ed 60 days without any trouble, though not much will be left to spare.

DONE UP.
A Tucson CattIeman Roped in by a
 Smooth Stranger.
(El Paso Times).

Although the Times only yesterday morning warned the people that the ibunco steerer" was abroad again, we are already placed in position to report a ease of "being taken in." Yesterday morning cattleman, who came in from Tucson on his way to Denver, having a few leisure hours on his hands decided to cross the Rio Grande and pay visit to our sister city. He went, he is sorry, he is out of $50.
 On the street car he made the acquain- tance of a glib and smooth-tongued stranger, who was also going to visit Juarez for the first time. He said that he had come from Fort Worth, and while on the way out here had seen a very clever trick practiced with cards The two left the car together, when ar rived otro lado and took stroll through the streets of the town. While on thls sightseeing expedition they met anoth- CT stranger. and the Fort Worth man was So enthusiastic over his card trick that he desired to initiate the new conner also. It was the old game of drawing a marked card. The Arizonan had the first draw and of course, pulled out the marked card. Then number three said it could not be done again, and he was wiling to bet ten dollars. The money Was pat up, the cattlepan acting as stake holder, and the marked card was again drawn out. Number three, anx ious to retrieve his loss, offered to bet Fort Worth $50 that it could not be done again, Fort Worth was a little short of money, but he knew that his friend, the cattleman, would oblige him by temporarily loaning him the amount, which he of course did at once. He was asked to draw the marked card, but alas instead of the marked queen he drew ter.
 The last seen of the man from Tucson WAS on this side, when he was endeavor- ing to get some one to cash draft for him, so that he could continue on his way to Denver. He took the train yes terday afternoon the saddest, maddest, and most disgusted man in this part of tie country. Merchants in Juarez are entertaining grave fears as to the safety of their stocks of goods, it beng claimed tl.at this is the same crowd that disap- paared at the time Boisselier was killed a hls store near the Brewery.
