An Interestins Case.

The suit of Thomas Davis ys. the Florence Canal Company, tried last week in the district cOur; at Florence, involves questions of interest wher- ever irrigation is the mode of cultiya- tIon. and the decision and decree are far wider in their bearing than the laeal interests involved in Pinal Co.
 On February ', 1892. the dam at the Florence Canal Co.'S reservoir broke, flooding land belonging to Mr. Davis, damaging it to the extent Of s30l7.0O. NIT. Davis entered suit, coltending that had the canal company patrolled It's dam properly the danger of break ing would have been observed and the disaster ayerted; also if the dam had been properly constructed by rip-rap- ping it would have stood.
 In defence the company set up that the dam had been built on venture. aud that it also lost great amC mt of money. Also that Mir. Davis, who is supposed to be a practical man, should have seen that the dam was con- structei in an imperfect and improper manner, was in q dangerous condition prior to the break, and he should have been prepared.
 In presenting the case Judge Her ring Of Phoenix and Mir. k. J Heney of Tucson represented the prosecution, and Judge W. II. Basnes of Ticson conducted the defence.
 The courts instructions to the jury were to the elect that iC Dayls' prop erty had been effected by the breaking Of the cam on account of defective construction, to render verdict In favor of the plaintiff, but if the break were proven beyond the power of con trol, to find for the defendant.
 After deliberating an hour and twenty minutes the jury returned . verdict of s25O0 for the plaintiff.
 The defence moved for new trial
 Counsel for defendant were Judge J. II. K.bbey, W. R. Stone, and Judge W. H. Barnes: for plaintiff, Frank J. Heney, Judges Herring and Sommers.

SILVER STILL GOING UP.
STEADY RISE OF THE WHITE
METAL IN LONDON.
The Advance Accounted for BY tho Fact
that Russia Contemplates the
Substitution of silver
for Paper Money.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Treasury ad-
vices say the price of silver continues
to advance in London. The price today
is 80 9-l6 pence, en- advance of 3-16 Of a
penny since yesterday.
The opinion is expressed here that
the cause for the continued rise in silver
in London during the past few days is
due in part to the belief that the gov
sernment of Russia is contemplating the
step Of adopting silver as part OF her
monetary syetem. 1t ID said in.imations
bauss sbsensreeeived here by government
officials that Russia will replace her
uncovered paper money with silver, to
be used as subsidiary coin. At present
the amount of silver in use in Russia as
money is not 53 cents per capita. Rus
sia has $500, 600 900 uncovered paper.
or about $442 per capita. 1t is stated
here that Russia can easily absorb
$3.50 ,00O.O silver, and is desir,us OF
doing 80 for the purpose of pushing her
commerce in the east with Persia, India
and China, which use silver almost ex-
clusively as money.

WASHINGTON, Nov. z. = Secretary
Gresham this morning received dis
patch from United States Minister Ba-
ker, who was on board the steamer Costa
Rica at Amapala when fred on by the
Honduras authorities because the cap
tain OF the vessel refused to surrender q
passenger. The dispatch fully confirms
the press reports ofsfring on the United
States flag.
While the ship was in the port of
Amspala the authorities demanded the
surrender OF Polecaro .Bonilla. who wae
recently concerned in the revolutionary
movement against the Honduras gov
ernment. The captain declined. After
the chip received her clearance papers,
and while che was leaving port. ak or
seven ehots were fred to bring her to.
Minister Baker was on board at the
time. Whether the shots were fred di-
rectly at her or in front is not stated.
The matter was discussed at the cabi-
net meeting this afternoon. Captain
Dow, who is in command of the Costa
Rica, is the same captain who harbored
Barrundia, who was killed on his chip
several years ago by the Gustemalan au-
thoritiee.
1t has been established thata political
refugee who is passenger. as Bonilla
was, cannot be taken from ship on
which he is. The chance pre .ence OF the
United States minister on the vessel in
this case is not considered to make any
4 ference in the diplomatic aspects Of
the case.
Nothing could be learned of what
reply was sent to Minister Baker or
what steps it ia proposed to taxa in the
matter. The q. 4. S. Alliance called
yesterday from San Jose to Acajulta in
Salvador. Whether this movement was
occasioned by the incident is not stated

TEN CASTAWAY'S SAVED.
A PARTY OF RUSSIAN EXILES'
SUFFERINGS.
They Escaped from . Penal settlement
and Were Ten Days at Sea in
an Open Bost-Rescued
by Whalers.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 7.-Three whal-
ing barks, the Reindeer. the Hunter and
the Charles w. Morgan, arrived in port
late this evening from Fox island. The
captain OF the Morgan reports that on
September Sd, in the Okhotsk sea, 20
miles southwest of Cape Sirotoka, she
picked up an open boat containing 10
Siberian refugees, who had put to sea to
escape Siberian guards. The men had
been TO sea 10 days, and were three days
without food or water. They were in q
pitiable condition. September 25th the
| Morgan s5oke the Hhaler Cape Horn
Pigeon, and transferred five OF the Siber-
ians to that vessel. The Cape Horn
Pigeon is now en- route for San Fran
cisco. None of the Russians speak
English, and the Morgsn's crew could
get but little information from them.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 8.-A reporter
visited the bark Morgan early this
"wednesday morning in company with
a Russian sailor, who acted as inter
prefer. He learned that when daylight
comes the refugees will have been
landed and be beyond the reach of the
Russian authorities at this port. The
exiles carried papers which were sent
ashore to residents here who will shell
ter them.
The story of the hazardous escape OF
the convicts was told through the inter-
prefer. The 10 men were working
under guard as woodsmen in penal
settlement on an island named Saghal-
len. Their escape was we'll planned
and long studied. Weeks previous to
the final break the men stole an old iron
kettle and tin pan and hid them in the
woods. They had resolved to escape to
sea in an open boat moored rear the
camp of the guards. The guards,
however, kept the oars under lock,
and the men were compelled to secretly
hew oars out OF rough timber. During
weeks of preparation each man daily
stole pocket full of rice from the sup
plies and carried it to hiding place in
the timber; also small keg which was
filed with water. e
How they captured the boat and made
heir final escape from the guards. the
men will not say. One significantly
remarked, however, that he would not
be surprised to hear that couple OF
guards have turned up missing.
The sufferings of the escaped men at
sea were terrible to endure after they
had been 10 days at sea and three days
after all their food and water had been
exhausted. The men were 80 deter
mined not to fall into the hands of the
Russians that they rQRed from the
whalers when the latter first sighted
them, believing the whalers TO be pur-
suing Russians. Then the Morgan ran
up the stars and stripes. when the reiu-
CESS gave a feeble cheer and changed
their course rowed and towards the
Americans.
The Morgan's crew were very much
interested in the cause OF the refugees
and would not do or say anything to
jeopardize their freedom 80 near at
hand.

CHICAGO. Nov. IA special from
Washington says the next steamer from
Hawaii for San Francisco, will probably
bring news of the action of Minister
Willis under his instructions from the
state department TO the provisional gov
ernment. 1t declares he was instructed
to inform the provisional government
that the United States regards the de-
thrcnement OF the queen as due entirely
to Minister Stevens and the landing of
troops from the United States steamer
Boston; that but for them the queen
would not have been dethroned !;
that the United States government
does not approve of the &C.
tion of Stevens, therefore does not
consider that there has been o revolu-
tion. But the United States does con.
slider that the queen, having been un-
justly deprived OF her throne by the
wrongful action OF the United States
minister and troops, is entitled TO be re-
stored to power. and restored she must
be. This position which the adminis-
tration has taken is likely to give rise
to much severe criticism on the ground
that it ill-befits this republic to assist
in the restoration OF deposed monarch.
This criticism is expected. The admin
istration's only explanation is that it
matters not whether the depoeed au-
thority was queen or president; the
authority was unlawfully overthrow
by representatives Of the United States,
and as a mere matter of abstract JUS
tice the wrong should be righted.

They Will Make Fine Exhibit at the

SAN Francisco, Nov. 7.-Some Of the
honey-raisers in the southern part of
the state are very desirous to retrieve
the failure made at the Columbian ex-
position; not that the exhibit of the
California bee-keepers was unsatisfac-
tory in itself at Chicago. but that, by
comparison with the honey exhibits
made from other parts of the country,
it was almost Insignificant. 1t is now
proposed to impress visitors to the mid
winter fair with the fact that in this
'land Of sunshine, fruit and flowers"
there is better field for making honey
than in any part of the world. To this
end these bee-keepers are arranging to
occupy large space in which honey
will be exhibited in glass cases, and bee
products in every style and shape. All
the honey districts will be represented, !,
showing honey in the comb in little
wooden sections, extracted honey in
glass and granulated state, beeswax,
foundation made OF wax and stamped
with hexagonal pattern, to induce
bees to commence operations, and an
endless variety of appliances used by
bee-keepers, including several colonies
of busy little workers.

said today: "The bill will do US lot Of
harm and will not benefit the growers Of
fruit in California. because foreign fruit
does not begin to come into this market
until the California stocks are cleaned
up. 1t is preposterous to put duty on
oranges, because the domestic crop is
more than sufficient to supply the con-
sumption in the country. The bill, as
it stands, will deprive the importing
classes OF oranges and lemons"
A meeting of importers and dealers in
foreign fruits will be held soon to protest

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. Theodore H.
Liebe, president of the Oregon German
Banking company, was shot today and
seriously wounded by Christian Hess,
who after shooting Liebe, shot and
killed himself. Liebe's wound is not
regarded as fatal. The bullet entered
the back OF the head, followed the skull
around and came out near the right eye.
Hess shot himself through the heart,
death ensuing instantly.
The shooting occurred at the interHec-
tion of East Park and @ streets, Liebe
being on his way home. People were
attracted to the Hcene of the crime
by the reports Of the pistol,
which was discharged only twice.
Liebe wac taken to his home, where q
physician was summoned and the body
Hess was conveyed to the Inorgue.
From what can be learned it ie sup
posed the trouble was brought about
by the arrest OF Hess some time ago on
the charge OF embezzlement, preferred
by Liehe. Hess, who was the husband
OF niece OF Liebe's, was formerly in
the employ OF Liebe as clerk in the
bank, and while thus employed he was
accused by Liebe OF abstracting money
from the till. He was arrested and
placed in Jail, where he remained until
few days ago, when he succeeded in
furnishing bonds pending his trial.
