A DEAD SQUAW.
CHASTITY Discovery on the Sewer
Farm Yesterday.
The Mystery of "Black Jack S" Death
to Be Investigated by Coroner's
Jury this Morning.

The purified body of an Indian
woman was found Yesterday afternoon
on the tract of ground known as the
"Sewer Farm" just this side OF the
river. The discovery was made by a
Mexican, who hurried back to town and
notified the authorities.
Justice Kincaid impanelled jury
and went to the place where the body
had been found. It lay less than
twenty feet from the road, but so Sc
curely concealed by bushes that its dis
covery would have been accidental but
for the dreadful odor which poisoned
the air and intensified the disagreeable-
ness of that malodorous locality, into
which the refuse OF the cityi is conducted
by the sewers.
The body lay on its back, one leg
doubled under it. 1t was in such
stage OF decomposition that a close
examination could not be made. The
face was already covered with vermin,
which had Gated the skin and flesh
away and so destroyed any possible
outward marks of violence, As thor
ough an investigation as possible was
made by DR.. Cameron who will report
at the inquest at Justice Kincaid's
Office at 9 O'Clock this morning. The
skull had the appearance of having
been slightly fractured.
The deal wagon from Randall & Davis
undertaking establishment had been
taken along to bring the body back, but
the coroner decided on account of it's
state of decay to bury it where it lay.
The body was identified by the cloth
ing as that OF BLACK jack" Pima
woman seen on the streets of Phoenix
almost daily during the last six years.
She was in town on Saturday and is
also said to have been seen here late on
Sunday afternoon. From the appearance
o. the body death must have occurred
about thirty six hours before discovery.
Suspicious of foul play are very
vague and are based on the appearance
OF the slight fracture of the skull and
the rumor of quarrel between a va
qul and his wife on Monday. 1t is said
that the woman accused her husband
of having been with "Black Jack" the
night before. The husband is said to
have Indignantly and excitedly denied
the charge. The story is being in
vestigated.
One of the dead woman's shoes Law a
short distance from the body but in the
absence of other evidences of struggle
this signifies nothing.

a BCHRiN0 SEA TAN0LC
Which Representatives Of America and England
Will Try 10 Straiqhten.


WASHINGTON, Feb. l5.-The sober sec.
ond Judgment Of both parties to the
Behring sea arbitration discloses the fact
that the agreement reached by the arbi-
traitors Is not entirely satisfactory to
sither the United States or Great Britain.
II appears, however, that the dissatisfaa;s
ton Is based rather upon matters of de-
tail than upon any objection 70 the broad
principles upon which the arbitration
was based.
These matters are now the cause of
toncern to the two nations, and for
months past there has been much corre-
tpondence between Secretary Gresham
and Ambassadors Bayard and Paunce-
fote, with view to their adjustment. One
Of the flaws which Secretary Gresham
Is said to have found, is failure to pro-
vide penalties for infraction OF provi-
sions, and as 1t would be Of little avail
to capture pelagic sealing vessels, only to
have them turned loose again upon the
seal herds AZ soon as the cases could be
brought before the courts, the secretary
is trying TO have this defect cured.
The United States 10 able to punish
sealsrs brought before its courts, but the
Canadian law is defective and thus an
international agreement is desirable.
The Canadians also have q cause Of
complaint. They appear to have dis
covered, at this late date. that q rigid en-
forcement of the articles Of agreement
would destroy their seal fishing industry.
They have brought great pressure to
bear upon the British foreign office. with
the result that Mr.. Pauncsfote u now
laboring strenuously to mitigate the mis-
fortunes Of the Canadians by securing a
considerable restriction of the limits oi
the closed zone around the seal islands
within which seals may not be taken by
vessels, and q shortening of the closed
season, which now extends from May !
until the last of August.

Battle With Outlaws.

DURANGO, MEX, March 10.-The
stock ranch of Pedro Sanchez, about
fifty miles from here, was the scene of
desperate ARRAY between q band of
brigands, who made an attack upon
the place. and a force of employees of
the ranch, led by Mr.. Sanchez, who
made telling resistance. The out
laws were expected, as they were
known to be in the neighborhood, and
when they rode up to the main resi-
dence OF the ranch and demanded
money, the strong guard of laborers
opened FIRE on them,
The robbers were taken completely
by surprise and two of them killed,
but the remainder rallied very quickly
and returned the fire, killing one oil
the ranch hands and wounding three
The fight was kept up for three hours
and finally resulted in the bandits be-
ing driven from their position and
they sought refuge in the mountains
leaving four killed and five wounded
Mr.. Sanchez was slightly wounded.
