A Valuable Collection of
Mexican OpaIs.
A Part of Them Goodman Saws
He Held on Consignment.
A Repeating Law Which Had Been
SingularIy Overlooked or
Forgotten.

The .Daggs- Goodman case came up
in district court yesterday in the action
of R. E. Daggs vs.. s. Goodman and his
wife Cora Goodman, an attach ment suit
to recover the proceeds OF a consign-
ment of wool sold through Goodman's
commission house to Philadelphia
firm. The defendants moved to dis
solve the attachment on the ground of
the insuficiency of the plaintiffs bond.
The defendants were proceeding npon
statute which had been repealed by the
Seventeenth legislature leaving the law
in such shape that to inyaiidate a
bond it was necessary to show that the
sureties had become insolvent or INSULT
clent since the execution of the
original bond. II it hsd been con-
sidered valid at the time of its accept
ance only change in fortune OF the
sureties for the worse since could rem
der it invalid The motion was there
fore denied.
The commission house safe was
opened yesterday. The Daggs Bros.
were determined to see the inside of it.
They had an expert employed two days
trying to master the new combination
put on by Mr.. Goodman. He seemed
to be making no headway and his en-
ployers were preparing to buy the safe
and blow it open with dynamite to sat
isfy their curiosity.
Yesterday, however. they were re-
lieysd Of the necessity of proceeding to
tiia extreme, heroic aud expensive
measure. At the request of the de-
fendant Sheriff Orme permitted him to.
open it and while 1t was being done the.
plaintiffs in the attachment suit hap
pened in.
They had really attached its contents
and were only curious 10 know what
they were. Al! of value in satisfying
costs or Judgment was an assortment OF
opals-white opals, fire opals and
crystal opals-something more than 100
valued ct from 81 to 50 apiece. The
crystal opals. by the way the more VAL
ua BILE, worth from $5 to SIS each. Mr..
Goodman said did Lot belong to him,
but had been consigntd to him for sale
by Mexican living II Sonora. The
plaintiffs declined to accept M. Good
mans statement, or even his affidavit
as to this circumstance but insisted on
an affidavit from the third party, the
alleged owner of the opals.
None oI the hooks or other docu-
ments for which inquiry had been made
in the proceedings which have so far
been had. could be toand.
The Kloss attachment suit against
Goodman will come up in Justice john
stones court today.

"THE MOUNTAIN CHIEF'
Changed Hands Yesterday for $780,
900.

A heavy mining deal which has been
hanging fire for long time was con-
summated in Phoenix yesterday.
Through the Phoenix Real Estate and
Mining company, T. P. Carson, repre-
senting the Reymert Mining company
OF Reymert, Pinal county, purchased
the Mountain Chief mine in the Hum
bug district in Yayapai county.
The former owners Of the mine were
G. E. Champie, I. J. Hill, F. W. Hill
and A. P. Walbridge. the considera-
ton is $4,000.
The Mountain Chief is valuable
property and has been worked spas
medically with good results. The alb
sence OF facilities in the vicinity for
treating the ore has hindered its de-
velopment. The Reymert company,
however, will supply these facilities
and work the mine for all it is worth,
as they have done the other properties
in which they have been interested.
The deal is said by mining men to
mean a reformation in the Hum bug
district, which is regarded as one of the
most promising in the territory.

crossing from Sturgeon bay, being
twelve hours in running from Hills
Point, a distance of eighteen miles,
owing to the ice showing so as to close

THE PRICE OF PASTURAGE.
A Discussion of the Subject Leads
to Race Trouble.

A lot OF Indians from the south side Of
the river were in town yesterday with a
grievance. One OF them also had
hole in his side which looked as if it
had been made by a violent thrust with
cane or small stick. He said it had
been done with club in the hands OF a
white man whose name he did not
know, living this side of Tempe.
The Indians said that three ponies
strsyed from the reservation on Thurs
day night. The next day they were
tracked by the Indians to a ranch this
side of Tempe. On reaching the ranch
nobody was in sight but woman who
demanded a dollar a piece for the
horses for the short time they we're in
pasture. The Indians said they were
not national bank with a paid up
capital and surplus. They were will
ing to pay for the pasture OF the horses
at the prevailing rate of 81 a month,
abrut3 3 cents day for each horse.
There was accordingly wide difference
of ideas op the subject and while the
discussion was going on the woman's
husband suddenly appeared and in
jecteo himself and club into it. The
Indians were beaten eff in pain and
ignominy.
They applied TO Justice Kincsid for
warrant for the arrest Of their assailant.
The case was SO indefinite that the JUS
tice refused to issue it.

will not longer be possible to give
China five per cent rate"
Mr.. Kurino said that in the absence
of definite word from his government
as to the terms of the peace under.
standing, he did not wish to speculate
on the terms. He regarded it as set
tied, however, that the island of Form
osa would be permanently ceded to Ja-
pan. That much had already proceeded
beyond the stage of contention. He
also considered the independence of
Corea as settled. This would leave the
question OF indemnity, of Port Arthur
occupation and of future treaty arrange
ments as subjects on which the Japan
ese. plenipotentiaries may have granted
some concessions. These concessions
may apply to one or the other of the
terms or to all of them.
The minister is hardly prepared to
believe that there will be no occupation
of Port Arthur. 1t is possibl that q
term of years may be conceded instead
of permanent occupation or else that
the extent of territory surrounding it
may be more restricted than was at
first conte N plated. Mr.. Kurino takes
conservative view of the conclusion oi
peace. He shares the feeling of his
country that Japan had won the price
of peace. The minister communicated
the information from Japan to the state
department during the day. 1t was
after the cabinet meeting however and
Secretary Gresham d1d not communi
cate the news to his cabinet colleagues

was informed.

ton, and erstwhile member of the great
dry goods firm of Hilton, Hughes & Co.,

The action is the result of young Hill

Hilton's infatuation for Sylvia Gerrish,

from Hilton, Hughes & Co., and the
mortgage of the A. 7. Stewart building

father, are matters OF local history, and

PEACE IN SIGHT.
Though There May Be a
Slight Hitch
The Japan-China Armis-
tice Will Be Extended.
So the Last Battle of the War
Has Probably Been Fought.
Official Intelligence at Washington
Concerning the Progress of
the Conference.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 12.-Oficial ad.
vices received at the Japanese legation
today indicate that an understanding
has been reached between the Japa-
nese and Chinese plen1potentiaries.
News of definite conclusion of peace
may be expected at any time. Brief as
the foregoing official message is it
marks the close of the Japan-China
war, barring hitch at the last mo.
ment.
Minister Kurino, of Japan, said con-
cerning the Japan-Chlna peace under
standing announced to him by official
cable from Toxic today: "The cable
gram is quite brief and does not reclte
the terms nor does it say that peace as
yet has actually been agreed upon, but
an understanding has been reached
between the envoys by which peace is
assured. 1 have no doubt from this
that we will have a treaty of peace
within few days. 1t undou btedly
will be concluded within the next seven
days, as the armistice is at an end at
that time.
"Should it not be arranged by that
time there would probably be no diff,
fcuity in continuing truce now that q
peace understanding has been reached.
There may be some delay in arranging
the articles OF the new Japan-China
treaty, as it will cover all the CONNER
cial interests Of the two countries.
One of the most essential items will be
that of the tariff. Heretofore the jap
ese duty was five per cent on Chinese
goods, and under the favored nation
clause all other countries were entitled
to the same rate but with Japan's new
treaties with the United States, Great
Britain and all other companies which
contained the favored nation clause, it

publican primaries for the selec-

places in the first, second, third and

Gardiner block, on Center street, next
the Wharton building, on Wall street
and on Second street, next Hartwell's
photograph gallery. Considering the
fact that Repu blicans are sanguine of
success there has been singularly little
interest taken so far in the prediction.
The main idea seems to be to choose
delegates who will exercise their judg-
