scented his salary claim for the

Controller Colgan refused to issue war

office was killed in its passage through the
House.

murrer was overruled on the ground that

ALMOST MADE CAPTIVE.
Bravery Exhibited by President
Doran of the Territorial
Council.
GRAPPLED WITH THE BANDIT.
The Outlaw Forced to Beat a Re-
treat to Avoid Being Taken
Prisoner.

PHOENIX, ARR, Oct. 4.-The stage
from Florence was held up by lone Mexi-
can horseman at the crossing OF Dry Lake,
eight miles west of Casa Grande station,
on the southern Pacific Railroad, yester-
day afternoon. Through the bravery of
A. ]. Doran, president of the Territorial
Legislative Council, the highwayman was
all but captured, and forced to make
hasty fight without stopping to secure his
booty.
The bandit, who used no disguise,
stopped the stage in a lonely locality.
The only passenger was Mr.. Doran, who
passed over some silver while looking into
the muzzle of revolver. He was then
commanded by the road agent to cut open
the mail sacks.
The robber, who spoke good English,
grew careless as he cursed his luck and was
kicking around the mail matter when
Doran jumped upon him, grasping the pis-
toll barrel just as the weapon was dis
charged. The stage-driver started to
Doran's assistance, but the robber tore
loose from Doran and mounting horse
rode rapidly away.
A Sheriff. posse is on the trail. -Four
hold-ups have occurred at the same place.

tried, granted the decree. allowing her the
sum of 5000, the custody of their minor
child, $125 month alimony and all real
and personal property.

Salt to Be Brought against Foreman La

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Oct. 4.-Chair-
man Morrison of the Board of Supervisors
has given instructions to his attorneys to
commence a suit for damages against Hugh
NJ. La Rue, foreman of the Grand Jury,
and also declares it as his intention to
bring individual suit against every men,
Der of the body.
In speaking on the subject Mr.. Morrison
said:
"Now that all these indictments and
accusations have been thrown out of court
l will state that when l was summoned to
appear before the Grand Jury l informed it
that | never voted to pay any claims Tor
extra deputies nor had | been instrumental
in procuring their appointment.
"On the contrary, [ advised the mem
berS of the board to refer the matter to the
State Board of Equalization and let it de-
eide as to the necessity OF appointing
extra deputies. These facts were plainly
stated by me before the Grand Jury, and
could have been easily proved by referring
to the records of the Board of Supervisors.
"Yet, despite the fact that it could
easily be proven that | was entirely inno-
cent, and that there was not the slightest
grounds upon which to base any accusa-
ton against me, the members of the
Grand Jury saw fit to blacken my charac-
ter and / propose to ascertain if there is
any redress for being vilitied and perse-
cuted in this way without giving just

SIOUX INDIANS COMPLAIN.
Many of Their Grteuamccs VIII Soon BE
IItUestf0afed.

Investigated.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. A con-
ference held yesterday between Assistant
Indian Commissioner Smith and Buffalo
Bills 0gallalah Sioux Indians showed that
the Indians have many grievances against
the Government concerning the affairs at
the reservation. Many questions were
propounded by Rocky Bear which afforded
additional proof Of the willy characteristics
OF the Sioux. AS a result of the confer
ence an inve stigation will be made as to
the right of Bartlett Richards, beef con-
tractor, to Craze 1000 or more head of cat
tie on the Sioux reservation, and prom
Use was secured that no more of the old In
dians of their tribe would be arrested I'M
der the Edmunds anti-polygamy act, such
arrests being source of revenue to United
States officers; but it was decided that
the Indian agent in charge should endeavor
to prevent the younger Indians from tax
ing unto themselves more than one wife.
Rocky Bears assertion that further arrests
under this act would be made in the Black
Hills exacted the promise that the matter
would be looked into.
Other complaints regarding the reduc-
'tion in freight rates and rations were ex-
planned satisfactorily. Throughout the
conference the Indians expressed the
highest regard for Colonel Cody and Ma
ior Burke, and declared the treatment re-
ceived from them exceeded their expecta-

A GREATER Los ANGELES.
a Majority of Highland Park
Voters Decides in Favor
of Annexation.
the Refusal to Hold Union
Election.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 4.-Highland
Park is now part of Los Angeles City,
the voters have decided for annexation
to-day by majority of 10 in the annexed
district and 1876 in the city.
When the petition for the annexation of
University, Vernon, Rosedale and Pico
Heights was completed Chairman of the
Highland Park Executive Committee H.
Park endeavored to have Highland Park
come in on the same election, offering to
pay all the expense of reprinting the petit
tions and such other incidental expense as
the change would entail.
This offer was refused by J. T. Neville,
chairman of the university committee,
who considered that Highland Park being
less desirable than University, which is a
handsome residence place, could not carry
the election and would interfere with his
district coming in. Consequently two
elections were ordered.
Had Chairman Neville acqriesced all of
the districts would have been annexed, as
the majority of to-day would have offset
