A BLACKSMITH AND A GUN
j. ]. Burke, the Lawyers Terror,
Arrested Yesterday
Business Growing Slack He Gets AWAY With
Certain Buggies. as He Himself Com
fesses-Grent at Gun Plays

j. J. Burke was arrested yesterday by
him with grand larceny. From all &C
counts it would seem that Burke is quite
a bad man and most ferocious at times.
The particular offenss alleged to have
been committed by Burke is in stealing
two buggies that were under attachment
and hiding them in some willow trees.
Burke is a blacksmith at West Glendale,
and what he lacks in Drawn he makes up
in ginger.
Some time ago Constable Yonkin lev
led an attachment on two bugsies belong
ing to him and took them to a man liv-
ing about mile from the place of the
olacksmith.
Business grew slack and the smith had
but little opportunity to exercise the
muscles of his brawny arms by making
sparks fly from his door like chaff from a
threshing machine, and besides there was
no spreading chestnut tree about, so he
looked around for other means to get his
name in the papers. The buggies sug
gested themselves and forthwith he
actsu. One night, the early part of this
week, be hied himself to the stronghold
Constable Yonkin went after him, but
the bird had flown tn this city. Yesterday
the officer located his man in Lloyd SEQ
vel Hardware company's store on Los
Angeles street and then followed a game
of Eide and seeS. AT last Burke was
chased up to the top story of the build
ing, where he took refuge in the closet
until dislodged by his pursuer. At the
county Jail Burke confessed having taken
the buggies and said they we're hidden in
some willows on Archie Peverly's place.
Burke does not bear very excellent rep
utation as a peaceable and la w-abidIng
citizen. Recently Mr.. Jones, the lawyer,
went out to his place to talk with Burke
about the foreclosure. Burke apparently
did not favor quiet settlement OF the
difficulty and walked into the house. got
his revolver and chased his visitor out of
the neigh borhood. In fact, so fast is
the disciple of Blackstone said to have run
that he carried away several yards of barb
wire fence in his clothes. Burke would
probably have sent in his bill for dam
ages had not the lawyer left new plug
hat behind, which Burke proudly carried
in triumph into tine shop.
So ferocious had Burke become that
when the constable went there some days
ago about the attachment. he started
for the LAWYERS terror with tho intention
of teaching Mr.. 1onkin to run. The off,
Ger drew his gun, though. and soon
brought the irate blacksmft5r-ko terms.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.-Governor
Hughes, of Arizona, has made his an
nual report to the secretary of the
interior 1t is devoted to a review of
the conditions of the territory. AS to
the political situation and statehood
the governor says:
Il believe that the territory is safely
Democratic when the two standard
parties are in the field. The Demo-
cratic candidate to Congress in 1892
received $40 votes. the Republican
5000. AT the last election there were
three parties in the field. The Demo-
cratic candidate received ATS votes.
the Republican 5,64S and the Populist
3,006 1t is claimed three-quarters Of
the Populist vote was Democratic and
this is borne out by a comparison of
the votes cast.
1.-THE people of the territory are a
unit for statehood. and of all others
this is the most important issue with
US. We have earned this right by the
conquest and civilization of this re-
giOn; we have every condition neces-
sary for lf-government-pop
wealth, resources, commercial. indus
trial, educational. moral. social and
religious institutions are all we'll es-
tabhshed. The progress of the last
year and the present conditions all
confirm Arizona's qualifications for
assuming the responsibilities Of a SOW
ereign state

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Hon. S. W.
Lamoreaux, commissioner of the gen.
eral land office, has made his annual
report to the secretary of the interior.
Compared with 1894 there has been a
decrease in land entries Of 1905, and
of 6,O16,6S5 acres entered upon; de-
crease of final entries to the number
of 1854, and S56,O59 acres entered upon,
and a decrease of cash receipts of $734,-
$40.
Discussing the act of the last con-
gress, granting lands to states for IT,
rigation purposes, Commissioner Lam
ereauX says he believes that the ne
cessity will arise in the near future
for the creation of a national commits
sion, whose function it shall be to reg
ulate the distribution of these waters
which have their source in a superadja-
cent state and which have heretofore
been used in common by the people of
that and the subadjacent state.
The commissioner closes his report
with the following recommendations:
"a law to compel the attendance of
witnesses at land offices in contest
cases; an appropriation of $4,000 an
nually for making examinations ne
cessary for the establishment of for
est reservoirs and for the protection of
reservations already existing; an ap-
preparation for six attorneys to super
wise and direct the proceedings of spe-
cial agents operating in as many differ
ent districts to be designated; legisla-
ton for the protection and disposal of
public timber; placing the surveying
of public land surveys under the geo.
logical survey; legislation creating the
Office of surveyor general of Alaska
an appropriation for eighty copyists tc
transcribe the press copy records OF
the land office into permanent records
the establishment of a district land
office for Alaska with a register and
receiver, having the same duties as

Great Northern Answers.

ST. PAUL, Oct. 4.-The Great North
ern railway filed its answer to the suit
recently brought in the district court
by Attorney General Childs for an in
junction against the proposed deal
with the Northern Pacific. The appli-
cation for an injunction was on the
ground that the proposed deal was
contrary to the constitution Of the
state which prohibits the consolidation
of parallel railroads. The answer is
very voluminous and goes over the
same ground as the road took in its
recent case in the United States court
covering the same matter. 1t is main
tanned that the vested rights Of the
Great Northern and its adjuncts are
such that the stated provisions OF the
constitution does not bear on the case
and anyway the proposed deal is en-
tirely within the bounds of the law.

OLNEY IS QUIET.
Refuses to Say Anything Touching
the Correspondence.

Refuses to Say Anything Touching
the Correspondence.
WASHINGTON Oct. 4.-Secretary
olney positively refused to say any
thing touching any correspondence he
has had or intends to have relative to
the settlement Of the Venezuelan boun-
dairy dispute so it cannot be positively
ascertained whether he has taken any
steps recently to induce Great Britain
70 submit the matter to arbitration. 1t
can be stated, however, that since Sec
rotary Gresham's death and UP to a
very recent date, the department had
not made a single move in that direc-
ton. But inasmuch as congress. by
resolution, has directed the executive
[ use its best efforts to bring the dis
pute to arbitration, it is very proba-
BILE that, having in mind the near ap-
preach of the assembling of congress,
Secretary Olney has been giving the
subject the attention IL demands, and
Is formulating his views to be COM
inundated to Ambassador Bayard up
on the return of the latter from his va
cation in Scotland. Moreover, as the
preceding letters of the late Secretary
Gresham on this subject appear to
aave failed to secure action by the
BRUSH government, whose only re-
Spouse was a reiteration of their will
ingness to arbitrate the title to the
lands, included within supplementary
claims found outside Of the vast tract
which the Venezuelans have seized
from them, Secretary Oiney may feel
that the time has come to make a
more forcible presentation than the
mere statement that the United States
would welcome a submission Of the
question to arbitration.
As diplomacy has many steps be-
tween the initiation of an incident and
q declaration of war, it is possible,
following ordinary usage. to set out
such a view in terms while in style
forci'ble shall ,9e entirely courteous and
N no degree approaching an ultimatum
and such undoubtedly will be the ma
ture of Secretary Olney's letter. This
must be done in order that some proper
return may be made 10 congress in
December next, but further than that
the secretary is not likely to proceed,
for as an ultimatum is really a step
toward war, to deliver such might be
regarded as an infringement of the
constitutional right OF congress.

PITCHFORK AND PISTOL.
A Lively Time on San Francisco
Race Track.


Race Track.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 4-Nick Hall,
the well-known horseman, stabbed J.
c. McWilliams three times with a
pitchfork near the Bay District race
track late last night, and the latter
shot at Hall three times without effect.
Both men are horse owners and train
ers.
McWilliams' horse Jefferson ran in
race on Wednesday and failed to get
place 1t appears that Hall, who had
backed the horse, was disgruntled over
his loss and charged McWilliams with
influencing the jockey against winning
the race McWilliams retaliated. and
the men separated with bad feelings on
both sides. This was early in the even
ing. Later they met in front of the
barber shop on Fifth avenue and the
quarrel was resumed.
Finally Hall went to his stable and,
arming himself with a pitchfork, re-
turned to the scene of hostilities
Without the slightest warning of his
murderous intentions he beat his an
tagonist over the head with the han
die of the pitchfork and jabbed at him
with the prongs. McWilliams was
felIed to the ground, and while in this
position he drew his pistol and fired
the mark.
NIcWilliams says he was dazed and
stupef1ed at the time he fired.
Hall, standing over his victim, con-
tinued to jab the prongs of the fork at
| the body of the PROSTATE man. He
made several digs into the scalp and
tore the skin off the brow of the right
eve. He punctured the right arm in
two places and made eight abrasions
on the shoulders and sides.
McWilliams' arm was almost help
less from the repeated blows that were
| showered on him. He managed to save
himself considerably by grabbing the
pitchfork with his hands. But Hall is
a powerful man, and had it not been
for the fact that a horseman named
Madison and others came to the res
! cue. McWilliams would have been en-
tirely at the mercy of his Infatuated as
! sailant.
McWilliams was taken to the receiv-
! ing hospital, where his wounds were
dressed. The police are searching for
