cts. failed to notice the fact"
Immediately after the wreck occurred
people began to come In from all direc-
lions, and within an hour after the acct
dent occurred thousands could be seen
grouped around the pile OF debris. No
wrecking train was available. but every
body turned to and In a short time had
rescued the injured and taken out the
dead. Doctors from surrou nding towns
hurried to the scene and rendered what
assistance they could to the suffering,
who were transported to places OF
safety.
All the medical resources OF Bt. Louis
were placed at the disposal OF the Frisco
road, as soon as the news OF the acct
dent reached the city dispensary.
At 3:4O o'clock this afternoon the relief
train bearing the survivors of the wreck
reached the Union station. and was i'm
mediately besieged by a crowd OF friends
and relatives anxious to see II their dear
ones had escaped injury. Some OF the
wounded were carried to their homes by
their friends, while others were taken tc
various hospitals. Among the latter were
three whose injuries will probably prove
fatal.
J. d. Dishman, the station agent al
Spring Park stated to a reporter tha
had the excursion train stopped at Spring
Park for orders, as It should have done
the accident would have been averted
He said that he got message from Val
ley Park when the accommodation trail
left that point, and he added that ha'
the excursion train stopped he woul'
have had it pull into the switch unit
the accommodation passed. Dishmal
said that he was in his office when tn
excursion train passed at a high rat
of speed. He said that he knew the tw
trains would come together but he wa
powerless to avert the accident.

COMING TO PHOENIX.
Booming the Coming National Irriga-
 tion Congress.

By letters received yesterday by Executive Committeeman McClintock, 1t is learned that E. R. Moses of Great Bend, Kansas, and c. M. Heintz, of Los Angeles, respectively chairman and secretary of the National Irriga- tion congress executive committee, and J. s. Emery, the National lecturer of the congress, will all be in Phoenix February to attend the organization session of the local committee on ad- ministraltion.
 Messrs. Moses and Heintz both write most hopefully of the prospects for the coming session, and state that next December from east and west will come the heaviest outside attendance ever known in the history of the con- gress. Chairman Moses has but late ly made a tour of Illinois and Mis- souri talking irrigation and The com ing irrigation congress and during the present week will take in several agri- cultural associations in Oklahoma. He especially desires to impress upon the people of Phoenix the necessity for energetic advertisement of the coming session.
 All courtesy is due to these repre- sentatives of the National committee and to them it is believed Phoenix will give taste of her boundless hospi- tality.

MOORE GETS THE REWARD.
The Kid Thompson Contest Decided
 in His Favor.

After many months of waiting Billy Moore, the Tonto Basin cattleman, will gel his reward for the capture oe Kid Thompson, the Roscoe train rob Der.
 The case, briefly stated, was: In February, 1894, a Southern Pacific ex- press train was wrecked at Roscoe sta tion near Los Angeles. The deed was done by unknown persons, for the ap- prehension of each of whom Wells, Fargo & Co.,, and the railroad con- pany offered reward of $1 1,60O.
 Through the information of an as- sociaEe, one Etzler, the crime was fastened upon Ava Johnson, farmer, living near Roscoe, and Kid Thomp- son. The latter fled to Arizona and after battle in the rocks on the slopes of Mount Reno that lasted all night, was finally, with a young sa.el- lite, captured by Moore and party of cowboys. The prisoners were taken to Los Angeles, where Thompson was convicted.
 Then followed a struggle for the re- ward money, in which Moore's claim was contested by Lawsons detective agency, which claims to have secured the evidence that led to the capture
 Judge Van Dyke rendered the de- cision.

RUN DOWN IN ARIZONA.
A Texas Murderer at
 Yuma.
The Inmate Of Two State Peni-
 tentiarieS.
John Clay of MarIcopa County, Proves to Be w. A. Clark
 of Texas.

In 1890 W. A. Clark was a convict in
 the Texas state penitentiary at Rusk,
 in the eastern part of the state. He was under a long sentence for grand
 larceny. July 14 of that year he made liberty, killing Guard Jesse Goodwin,
 who stood in his way. His description,
 as is usual in such cases, was sent
 broadcast Throughout the country, but for years nothing was heard of the fugitive.
 May "A, 1892, one John Clay
 was sent to the Arizona penitentiary at Yuma, convicted in this county
 of horse stealing. Clay soon demon strated himself one of the most tur- bulent spirits ever known in the prison and has for much of the time of his
 Yuma residence been under prison
 punishment. Twice he has attempted to escape and he is watched as few prisoners need to be.
 Clay'S crime in this county consisted in the appropriation of small herd of horses near Gila Bend, where he was well known. Harry McPhaull, the To- cal constable, found the trail and fol- 1 lowed it across the desert for two days, | killing horse to overtake the fugitive. He surprised the man, had him throw up his hands, secured his weapons. bound him with a chain and brought him to Phoenix. Here he was wild
 spirit in the old brick county jail and
 once headed an outbreak That was only 1 frustrated by the action of Jeff Will son, a negro prisoner. Wilson then
 was under sentence Of death from the 1 United States court, but now is free,
 an employe of ex-Sheriff Montgomery His liberty is possibly owing to his action at the time of Gays break, for
 in the melee he was seriously stabbed
 by the infuriated convict. Clay's sel- tence was for seven years.
 l Possibly it was his devilry that led 1 to the discovery that John Clay in
 prison garb and w. A. Clark of Texas,
 as photographed under similar condi- | tionS were one and the same Clay will soon be on his way l back ito Texas to stand trial for
 his graver offense of 1890. Cap his way back Ito Texas to stand trial
 for his graver offense of 1S9O Cap

 a determined man who well knows 1 Clark's dangerous character, is now on
 the way to Yuma, there to take his | man in charge.
 Extradition papers were received yesterday al: the executive offices,
 signed by Governor Cu,berson and by | s. A. Whalley, superintendent of
 Texas prisons, and all the legal formal ities to deportation have been complied | with.

NOW IS RUSSIA'S VASSAL The Bear Has Taken
 Turkey. A Vail Arises from Great
 Britain.
Madagascar Now Is French-Amer- leans Released from Prison
 at Pretoria.

LONDON, Jan. 29-A dispatch to the Pail Mall Gazette from Consl5anti- nople dated yesterday says an offensive and defensive alliance has been con- cluded between Russia and Turkey. The dispatch adds that the treaty was signed at Cons.antinople and ratifica- tions exchanged at St. Petersburg be- tween Aarej Pasha and the czar. This treaty is declared to be on the lines of the Unkiarshe agreement of 1883 by which Turkey agreed in the event of Russia going to war to close the Dardanelles to war ships of all nations.
 The Pall Mall Gazette's correspond ent says that the treaty nus. soon be abandoned owing to the refusal of the powers to recognize it. He also says the French ambassador, M. Cambona, conferred with the sultan yesterday and it is probable that France will be included in the new alliance.
 Commenting on the dispatch from Constantinople announcing the sign ing of the treaty between Russia and Turkey for offensive and defensive purposes, the Pall Mall Gazette says: 'tWe regard the news as true and the result of the treaty is thai the Dar- danelles is the southern outpost of Russia, and Turkey is Russia's vassal. We presume the British government will protest against the treaty for all it is worth. The information is plainly of the gravest importance This brings Russia into the Mediter- ranean with a vengeance and may ne cessitate the strengthening of our fleet in those waters The political effect will be far greater. The treaty means that Turkey has realized hel own impotence against disorders both from within and without and has de cided to throw herself for safety or Russia. She is now Russia's vassa. and Russia is entitled to dispatch troops to any part of the sultan's do minions.

BUILDING OPERATIONS.
Especially Notable in the Northeast
 ern District.

Building is progressing merrily in the northeastern portion of the city, and it is evident that the attractions of the district tapped by the electric car line are now appreciated most de- cidedly by those who seek eligible spots on which to place their homes.
 One of the largest and handsomest of the structures will be the residence of Mrs. Wm. H. Anderson, on North Seventh street. It will have twelve rooms and be fitted up after the most approved plans of modern architecture.
 In Churchill addition a very swarm of residences are rising. Contractor Amirault is about finishing a home that does credit to his capability as builder, and Charles H. Pierce, the mail carrier, has also near its compile ton a comfortable cottage. Fritz Dressel, manager of the Fort Grant baseball team, was so pleased with the city when he came that he forthwith invested in a Churchill addition lot and within a few weeks he will have complete a renting house, built by him as a safe investment
