THE MORALES GRANT,
Decision of the Court of Land Claims
 Sustained

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Chief Justice Fuller handed down a decision in the supreme court today in the No gales land grant case from southern Arizona. He did not go into the gen. eral merits of the case, but affirmed the decision of the court of private land claims on the ground that the court had no jurisdiction as the grant had not been located at the time of the Gadsden treaty.
 Justice Brewer rendered a decision in the case of Samuel Marks vs. the United States and Bannock Indians, involving a calm for Indian depreda- tions. The decision involved the con- struction of the part of the statute of 1891 concerning depredations commit te d by Indians fin amity" with the United States The case was appealed from the decision of The court of claims which held the words, "in amity," to mean state of actual peace and when no hostilities are in progress. The su- preme court affirmed the decision of the court below.

LOS ANGELES CRUDE OIL.
It Has Largely Supplanted Coal for
 Steam Producing.

San Francisco Chronicle: The con- tract to supply locomotives with crude oil fuel which the Los Angeles Oil ex- change has made with an Arizona rail- road is the second deal of the kind which has followed the discovery of petroleum wells in the southern me tropolis. For months past the Santa Fe lines in California have used crude oil in their locomotive furnaces and the results have been to save 25 per cent of the former cost of coal.
 Indeed, the use of oil in the produc- tion Of motive power has so generally increased in the south that the visits of coal-laden vessels there, which lately cut a great figure in the business of San Diego and San Pedro, have be- come few and far between It is not usual to see one such ship now where there were formerly five.

THE SPANIARDS OBJECT GrieVed at the Action of
 Congress. Mob Violence Tried at Bar
 CelOna.
United States Government Pre-
 pairing for Possible Trouble Over Cuba.

WASHINGTON, March 2. The Spanish-American situation growing out of the riots at Barcelona and other cities in Spain was regarded so seri- ous by the president that special meeting of the cabinet was held last night, though the call was issued under the guise of dinner by Secretary o. ney. Secretary Olney read lette from Minister DeLome including a ca ble message he had received from his government that Spain was exerting all her power in protecting the United States legation and consuls, and he could give assurances that they would be protected from any harm. Also the Americans visiting and residing in Spain would be safe from the attacks of mObs and other riotous assemblies.
 Another communication created pro- found surprise. It was a message from the Spanish minister of foreign affairs at Madrid insisting that the United States government disavow the action of the senate as a condition prece- dent to continued friendly relations between the two governments The president and cabinet ministers pres ent were inclined to excuse the mes sage to some extent upon the basis of his ignorance of the United States and its form of government.
 The only result of the conference was the practical agreement that the secretary of state should promptly re- spond in kindly terms to the communi- cation of Minister DeLome and thank his government for it's readiness to protect Americans and American inter ests in Spain.
 The demand for a disclaimer of the senate's resolution will be ignored.
 The secretary of the navy purely as a measure of precaution, will bring an efficient fleet of war vessels near enough together to send them prompt ly to any point that may be threatened.

SHAKESPEARE IN PHOENIX.
-Keene's Presentation of Richard III
 Scores Decided Success.

Last night for the first time there came to Phoenix a worthy company to present ''the legitimate" in dramatic art. It had been said that the city would not take well to Shakespeare, but we'll was this contradicted, for the opera house was filed as it rarely has been filed before. The bill was 'fRichard IT," Thomas Keene in the title role. The presentation was su- perb. MT. Keene played as only a great actor can and his support quite out of the ordinary, was strong Shakespeare was introduced under most favorable circumstances and well were his noble lines appreciated in presentation. Tonight the bill will be Louis XI," in which the great tra- gedian will be seen at his best.

Secretary Olney yesterday evening. It was as follows:
 "The minister of state has just called to express his deep regret that a mob had insulted the Barcelona consulate, breaking the windows, and offered complete reparation."
 The excitement in Spain over the action of the United States senate leading up to the insult to the United States consulate at Barcelona fails to find a corresponding reflex in Wash ington, at least in official circles. Al. most everywhere the feeling is that the affair is not one which of necessity must lead to hostilities.

Deming Headlight: The thousands of persons who feel an interest in Francis Schlatter, the healer, need ex- perience no anxiety because of the sensational attempts of some of our contemporaries to make it appear that he may be lost in the storm among the Mogollon mountains.
 MT. Schlatter crossed those mount aims in safety and is now progressing down the Gila river in Arizona. The Mogollon mountains are in New Mex ico close to the Arizona line.

There are some men in this town
with black skins who are mighty

Rev. Mark B. Taylor, pastor of the

Mr.. A. l.. Taylor. Mr.. Taylor is an
old soldier and is so highly esteemed
by his Massachusetts comrades that
they are making an active canvass
for his election to the post of Chaplain
in-chief of the Grand Army of the
Republic. Mr.. Taylor served for one
year as Second Sergeant of the 93rd
Illinois Infantry. He was then ap-
pointed Commissary Sergeant of the
Regiment, and although this appoint
ment took him out of the ranks of the
combatants, yet the record shows
that whenever his regiment got into
a fight Mr.. Taylor managed some way
to get hold of musket and find a
place with the boys. One of the re-
suits Of this habit is partially dis
abled right arm on account of a bullet
in the shoulder at the famous "Hold
the Fort" battle at Allatoona. 1t is
no wonder that the old soldiers find a
warm place in their hearts for that
kind of mon .combatant." We are
glad to announce that Mr.. Taylor
will preach at the Presbyterian
church next Sunday morning.

THEIAw

When the township trustees held
their regular meeting few weeks
ago to agree upon a basis of assess
ment, there was considerable senti-
ment in favor of carrying out the law
as it stands on the statute books, and
assessing property at its full cash
value. The proposition to do this Oc-
cssioned a pretty warm debate, which
was participated in by all present,
among others by the Populist assessor
of Salem township who was very
earnest in opposing any change from
the old system. At the close of his
speech OH the subject some one quietly
remarked: "Well if you should do
things the way you say you certainly
could not make the returns to the
county clerks office in the way that
is required by the law" so, damn
the ld,U ," was the immediate and
emphatic response.
1t was only little thing, cOmpar-
atively speaking, and yet it illustrates
the whole spirit and tendency of the
teachings of Populism. Calumny
against those high in office, for no
other reason than that they are high
in office; abuse OF the legislatures that
frame the laws and of the courts that
interpret and enforce them; attack
upon the laws of the State and Nation
as deliberately designed to rob and
enslave the people that is the bur-
den If every Populist speech that has
been heard in Kansas for five years
past. No wonder that a follower of
Populism, q young man who has
heard these speeches and believes
them, when shown that the law stood
in the way of doing what he wanted
to do, should exclaim with pr9fane
contempt: damn the law" He has
simply learned the lesson that the
leaders of the party to which he be-
longs have been so assiduously incul-
eating.
