WHAT IS NEEDED.
Recommendations Made by
 the Grand Jury.
Everything Relating to the Ma
 chlnery of the County Re- ceiVeS Attention.

The grand jury yesterday submitted it's final report and was discharged by Judge Baker, who took occasion to highly compliment the body by saying that in point of intelligence, prompti tude in business it surpassed any grand jury ever impaneled in Maricopa county.
 The general report showed that twen- tv cases had been investigated. fifteen indictments returned and thirteen charges ignored.
 The rest of the report WAS made up of the reports of the special committees appointed to investigate the various branches of county affairs.
 The committee on the jail regards the new structure as an excellent one both in plan and con struction. The prisoners had made to the committee favorable report of the jail officials, but they had a grievance against the Chinaman who supplies them with food. The meat and coffee were indifferent in quality and insufficient in quantity. The jail also seemed to be short on bedclothing.
 The office of the board of supervisors was found to be well kept, but the com mittee recommends the construction of i fre-proof vault for the records. 1 The committee appointed to invasti- gate the treasury had not had sufficient time to perform it's duties with thor oughness and could be accom- plished only by special committee. This. however, expressly states that it does ] not recommend this.
 The district attorneys report in- cluded list of the criminal cases which had been tried in the several justices courts. Eighty complaints had been issued by him before the two justices of this precinct since May "A.
 The committee appointed on the court house recommended that on the completion of fthe neE jail that one or two of ths present cages be sent to Gila Bend for the confinement of prison, CTS committed for misdemeanors. It was stated that during the past twenty months the expense fos mileage in the transportation of prisoners of this class amounted to $500. This committee also finds that all the offices are inadequate as to room and recommends that in the encouragement of offices the treasurer's be placed next to the sheriff's. The report states that the court house is in general need of repair. The offices of the recorder. sheriff and assessor were found to be in good order.
 The present excellent condition of the probate judges office and the improve ments introduced by Judge Jordan were described. The committee ur- gently recommends the construction of vault for the valuable records of this office.
 The committee on county thorough fares reported that all the roadmasters were very efficient and careful and that with two exceptions the roads were in good condition. One of these is a sec ton of the Yuma road and the other is a stretch of the Tempe road between Tempe and the Crosscut.
 The manner in which the county hos pital is kept was strongly commended and concerning the method of furnish ing relief to the indigent sick it was recommended that whenever possible to be done they should be removed to the hospital.

The Chief Trouble Is His Expensive
 Tastes.
 MT. s. D. Lount has yourg, spirited and valuable horse which should be owned by a buggy manufacturer of means. Yesterday morning Mrg. Lount, who had been driving him, drove up in front of the house and got out of the buggy. Tbe horse was rest i've, but under control. 4 stranger came along and offered to hold the horse which probably would have stood. The stranger took hold of the reins and the disturbance commenced. The accommodating stranger 1as dragged ignominiously down the street and finally succeeded in letting go. The horse subsequently, came up against dray and emerged from the collision with buggy without wheels.
 Later Billy Lount hitched him to another buggy. This was overturned in front of Irvine's book store, badly damaged and the driver painfully bruised.

VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 20. - The steamer, E npress Of China, arrived today bringing Yokohama adyices to November 9. Some excitement has been created in Yokohama by the de- tention of the Oriental and Occidental steamer Gaelic, on her outward voyage to Hong Kong, in order that search for contrabsnd goods might be made by the Japanese authorities.
 On the evening of November 4, two torpedo boats took positions on either side of the Gaelic and were presently followed by guardship containing a detachment of marines. A group of custom house officers went aboard and asked permission to examine the cargo, explaining that they had received in- formation that contra band wares had been shipped from San Francisco. Capt. Hearne protested against the search, but otherwise offered no oppo- sition. The proceedings were con ducted with perfect courtesy on both sides. After partial inspection the business was postponed for the night, but was resumed the next day, when the ship was allowed to go on her way. l According to a general report two of the passengers were known to be naval experts and possessed of some secret engine of destruction which was be- lieved to be hidden Tn their baggage. Nothing liable to seizure was found, | however.
 l While the examination at Yokohama was drawing to close intelligence was l received that the suspected travellers had transferred themselves or their belongings to the French mail steamer, Sidney, and were on their way to Shanghai by way of Kobe. Permission l to search the ship was obtained from the French consul and 8 discovery was made that passenger calling himself John Brown and claiming to be an American was bound for China under contract with the authorities of the empire to destroy the Japanese navy within eight weeks from the time of his arrival. He professes to have discov- cred an explosive of tremendous power which he declared he had first offered to the Japanese but as his proposal had been contemptuously refused he turned to the other belligerent and sought em- ployment from the Chinese legation at Washington. The arrested men are under close guardianship in Kobe. Brown and a companion named Howie are under arrest at Kobe.
 It is understood that the French minister in Tokio protests earnest. ly against the action of the Japan ese in this case and that he has telegraphed home for spe. cial instructions. There is a question that the parties arrested were in the service of China. They bore letters to Ii Hung Chang from the envoy at Washington and also a formal contract promising to pay $l,000,000 for the de. struction of the Japanese navy and a specified sum for every merchant shir destroyed.
 The Japanese officials emphatically assert that the seizure WAS made in ac cordance with methods laid down fol such contingencies by the highest in. ternational authorities, the process having been executed with due caution
