The ex-senator had been admiring SuIIi-

Railway Monday, is proving very trouble
some to the railroad company. Yester-
day District Attorney Jones proceeded
with the train TO Fort Sullivan and con-
vinced the garrison that the law was
being violated, and when the train ar
rived, despite Suliivan's protests, the
shanty was moved Off the track by the
company's employees. 1t was thought
that this would end the difficulty, but this
morning Sullivan appeared before Justice
Parks here to answer to charge of pIac-
ing distractions on the railroad track-a
grave otfense under Arizona statutes.
Sullivan pleaded for and obtained a con-
tinuance until Friday. When the train
arrived at Sullivan's ranch this morning
another house had been erected on the
track and some fifteen or twenty men
were at work on it, Sullivan was there,
and forbade any one to touch it. Sulli-
vans wife upholds her husband.
