 YUMA'S SCANDAL. Affairs at lhe Prison In a Rattled Condition. Process of Reconstruction m augurated by Superin-
 tendent iMeade.

Murrey Mclnernay, ex-superintend- ent of the territorial prison, has been bound over to appear before the grand Jury of Yuma county on charge ot embezzlement. The arrest was made on Friday. The result of the examin-. ation showed a shortage of Sl 900 in cash, which has since been settled. There was strong evidence to show that a large amount of personal prop erty belonging to the prison had been spirited away. The testimony was conclusive enough to hold the accused over under bonds which were fixed at $500. The Gazette says in special from Yuma:
 The property taken consisted of silverware, furniture, bedding and household articles of all kinds. The case now looks black for McInernay and he will have a hard time to over come the evidence already produced. Some of the very men to whom he h as shown the most favors were the first to tu-h against him. His staunch friends will stand by him and he will have no trouble in securing bail By the testimony of L. A. Hicks, secre- tary of the prison under McInernay, so far presented, the prosecution shows the territory to be loser nearly Sl 900, if not more.
 
 A citizen of Yuma writes to friend in this city that the methods carried on there were slack in the extreme. A search made of the prison by Mir. Meade brought 10 light dozens of knives, slung shots, packs oi playing cards and other articles that never should go inside the walls.

TELEGRAMs brought the news to Tom bstone last night that w. K. Meade had been appointed to the office of United States marshal for the territory and Ellinwood as United States attorney for the territory. Mir. Meade's appointment was the cause of great rejoicing in Tombstone, and congratulations were showered upon him by wire. Among all citizens there was feeling of regret that he could not continue as superintendent of the prison, a position that needs a person to occupy it oi MT. Meade's pe- culiar qualifications. As U. s.. mar shal MT. Meade has made a record. His reappeintment after tour years oi private life, was a mark of recognition by the president that few ex-oficlals can command. Those who know him best know that Arizona does not contain a man better qualified to fill this important office.

AT COURT. The First Round in the MCAlliSter- Nichols Bout Declared a Draw. The Question of the Legality of Taxing Advertising Costs to Delinquents
 Raised by Judge
 Reilly.

Court opened at o'clock p, m. to- day. The first business was the call ing of the cslaniaf. When the case of McAllister vs. Nichols was called, Allen English attorney for plaintiff, asked that it be set for day after the mandamus case was heard. Messrs. Herring and Heney objected and ask ed that the suit to decide the title to office be set first. This brought out a general discussion in which attorneys on both sides took an active part. Judge Sloan intimated that the cases could be heard together as the evil dence was the same in both cases. The defendants were satisfied with this and the plaintiffs attorneys, Messrs Stilwell and English acquiesced The two cases were set for Wednesday and will be decided upon the same testimony.
 The judgment against the delin- qaent tax roll was not made owing 10 question being raised by James Reilly in behalf of Alex Chisholm. The latter sent P. O. order to the treasurer for the amount of his taxes less the advertising costs amounting to about S}. These he refused 10 pay and the treasurer refused to send hi m full receipt unless he did so. The question raised by Judge Reilly, was that the costs of advertising the de- linquent list is covered by the l per cent per month penalty. Judge Sloan thought that the question was a grave one and deferred entering judgment against tue delinquents until the mat tor is determined although District Attorney Staehle was willing to give MT. Chisholm, a full receipt for his taxes.
 The mandamus suits of Brayin vs. Ryan, and Bravin ct. al. vs. the City, were called and set for some days hence. The attorney for the city, Mir Reilly, asked that plaintiffs give se- curity for court costs before the case went further, a question that was argued and taken under advfsement.
 In the course of the calling of the calandar it was developed that the case of MaTsien ys. Shiiiianh had been sei- tied.
 A large number oi cases were passed for the present and a large number were also shown not to be at issue or service not completed.
 The case of Hansen vs. Toles was set for Monday next and jury demand od.

AT COURT.
kinnear vs. kinnear Takes Up the Morning, and Man damus the Afternoon
 Session.

Court opened this morning at the usual hour. The grand jury was called and excused until l0:30. At that time the prisoners were brought into court and the jury again called. Of the dozen prisoners all were Mexi- cans with the exception of A. May, who is accused of larceny of a watch. Their names were called and their eases stated through F. Herrera, court interpreter. Attorneys were appoint ed for those who had not the where with to employ one. Chas. Granville Johnson drew the first prize, which was fine looking specimen of native oi Sonora. G. ". Swai fell heir to job lot from the Yaqui river, and c. :. Clark caught Tartar from No Mans Land. Other luckless at> torneys drew approximation prizes of less value and colder comfort than most of those dealt out by Conrads Ice Works. G. w. Swain appeared for the white man of the flock. During the first hour of the morn ing session the attention of the court was taken up by the case of Kinnear vs. Kinnear The facts of the case as stated are these: A divorce suit was instituted in the district court by one of the parties. An equal division of property was agreed upon. MT. Kin near mortgaged his half to P. J. Dele hante; Mrs. kinnear mor,gaged her half to Lou Cooley. The mortgages ran on and before they were foreclosed receiver was appointed. For about fifteen months before he was appoint | ed man named Skinner was hired to | look after the cattle and ranch at compensation of $65 per month. A total amount of $960 was due him at the time the receiver was appointed. The mortgages were foreclosed, the 1 property sold and the money turned | into court, where 1t now is awaiting 6 distribution. Judge Barnes for Skinner claims that the S960 as we'll as the money earned after the receiver was appointed should be paid to him as costs and that each holder oi mort gages should pay one half of the wages of Skinner. Col. Herring for the de- | fense claims that Skinner is too late with his claim for $960 and that he is not entitled to that amount by any action commenced at this time as an iptervenor. After a thorough dis | cussion of the case the demurrer was taken under advisement by the court until Thursday.
 B. $. Coffman was appointed fore- man of the grand jury, and that body retired.
 At the afternoon session the case
 Bravin vs. the City was taken up. This was one of the mandamus cases
 to mpel the city to draw warrants | for the salaries oi the old officers. The | question of requiring plaintiffs to give bonds for costs was argued and brought up the question of whether a man.
 damus was & civil action. The judge l decided that it was in the nature of
 one, and ordered bonds to be given as
 asked for. The motion was then
 made to quash the mandamus. Upon
 this point the argument was exhaust i've and consumei the greater part of the afternoon.
 Default was entered in the follow ing cases: Morgan vs. Morgan, Will, son vs. Wilson, Spencer vs. Spencer. Durkee vs. Durkee and Bacigalupi vs. Bacigalupi. The trial of the case of the territory vs. Curby was set for the 18th.
