SUES UNDER ARREST.
An Officer Leaves for San Per- ardiLo
 to Bring Him Back.

B. Sues, accused by the coroner's jury of the murder of P F. Lynch at the College Place lodging house last Monday morning, was arrested yes- terday at San Bernardino. Deputy Sheriff Boyd left last night for San Bernardino to bring him back. The first message from the authorities here was sent on Thursday night di- recting the arrest of B. Sues. The address, 561 Third street, publi he1 in The Republican yesterday morning, was given in the telegram. A reply came yesterday saying that no such person lived there. There was, though, an L. Sues, an upholsterer. A tele- gram was received later saying ttat B. sSues had since been found and was ulHder arrest.
 /More evidence regarding the move merits of Sues after leaving Phoenix was discovered by a Republican re- porter last. night. It either corrobo- rates Sues letter published in The Republican yesterday morning written from San Bernardino on December IA orS1se proves the unreliabiity Of cir ~su etantal evide2ce when even re- caa dates are concerned.

This agrees in every detail except enc with the description of him given by Frank Black as he saw him when he bade h III goodbye as he set out on his journey The exception was the hat MT Compton said the stranger wore a S fl black hat. MT Black was uncertain but thought he was wearing ether g

black derby or soft dark brown hat. When the stranger stepped at the Tempe depot he asked where he could get a drink of water. Mr. Compton saw Agent Hill of the railroad comirg and told the stranger the depot would then be unlocked and he could gJt a drink. The stranger got the water, talked a short time with Messrs. Hill and Compton, made inquiries about the probability of being able to get water along his route and then rode off in the direction of Mariccpa. Within the time that Sues separated from MT. Black to the time the stranger stopped at the Tempe depot. an average rider could have covered the distance.
 On the other hand Billy B Banken- ship says he saw and talked with Sues on Monday morning soon after 8 o'clock. Firedericks saw him on Sun day and Proprietor Ward of the Col 1ege Place said that Sues did not get out of bed on Sunday until il o'clock in the morning. All of which proves that somebody is in erTcr as to the day of the week
 If Messrs. Compton and Hill idont' fly Sues as the man they saw on Sunday morning, their testimony will be of even greater value to him than the letter received by Mr. Black, for that letter might have been forwarded to San Bernardino to be mailed back to Phoenix. The authorities reasoned regarding the letter that it would have been possible for Sues to leave Phoe- nix on Monday, catch the westbound train at Maricopa or Gila Bend, fer it passes the latter station about o'clock in the morning on Tuesday and arrive at San Bernardino the same day at 5:3O in the afternoon; SD he could haysf cen there in time on December A to mail that letter. But the lette: was pcs : marked at 2:30 in the afternoon, three hours earlier than 1t would have been possible for Sues to jget there.

Wrlliams, Ariz., Dec. 16.-QSpecisl Correspondence of The Republican, J. Nc town in the territory has had more hard knocks than Williams. Once the divis'iom point was transferred and for years the people have been on the ragged edge over a probability, which maaerialized in October las, for in that month division headqusr- ters were removed to Seligman, the Harvey house going also. Two and half years ago the people of Williams fought "a great fight over the night of Flagstaff to have new court house and for years t1t has been nip and tuck as Ito which town should be the ter minus of the Grand canyon railway, a line that has been built on paper these ten years. To all appearances Flagstaff has the inside track, but the other fellows say ''nlt." But don't forget one thing, Williams has the Saginaw Lumber companys saw mill and big box factory with enough timber to keep them going many years, even though the fire fend shows his hand occasionally. The matter of the Grand canyon railway is left to the rival papers to discuss, pro and con. IA few things the town needs to brighten it up are electric lights, cleaner streets and better side walks. Nobody disputes this. Other wise Williams is all right. She has the best water supply in Arizona, saw mill plant up to date with others on the side, a big reservoir, and cen ditions above enumerated corrected, a good site for summer resort Ia November, not the best month in the year, the railway office receipts were $10,500. Put that in your p.pe and smoke it, ye who claim supremacy over Williams, say the loyal inhabi- tantS.
 IA turn through the west end devel- oped the fact that the electric plant at the Saginaw company's saw mill is in fine working order and the mill running full and yards crowded w tn commercial stock MT Cutting is still foreman i'm this department. In less than two months after the total destruction eff the box factory by fire a new structure was completed and outftted with new and improved machinery, the plant having a capac-

EFFECT ON NICARAGUA.
One Phase of the Arbitration Treaty
Discussed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The senate
committee on foreign relations today
had the arbitration treaty under dis
cussion, but the talk was almost Who'll
ly upon it's bearing on the Nicaragua
canal. The committee had read the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, also all treaties
and agreements between the United
States and Nicaragua and Costa Rica
relating to the canal The letter OF
Minister Rodriguez presented to the
senate on Friday, in which the Nicara-
qua government protested against the
CO nal bill before the senate, formed
basis Of discussion. This lead to
talk of what the real situation was in
regard to the concession and the tech
nical rights Of the Maritime Canal
company, as well as the rights of the
United States. Several senators
seemed to think that the Nicaragua
canal might be seriously affected by
the treaty and the determination of
the committee was to go to the bottom
of the question before taking up other
portions of the treaty. Senator Nor
gan took an active part in the discus
sion, being chairman Of the Nicaragua
canal committee and in charge Of the
bill before the senate. His views were
presented at some length, and with
much earneStneSs. The Alabama SEN
ator insisted that the canal situation
must be settled before the treaty could
be ratified

all satisfactory. The same report was

there was a fight on the favorable re-
port of the committee on the bill to

to return to their posts of duty and
cease to take a part in the senatorial

dear Sir: / am gratifed to see the report
tnat you DO not favor the retirement of the
greenbacks. l am in favor of the govern
ment using one hundred millions now retired
ana neld that they may be reissued according
10 government receipts and deficiencies and
paid out when needed and retired when re-
ce1pts OF revenues are sufficient. One dol
lar per barrel on beer would increase the
revenue and thus save the government from
issuing more bonds. Your obedient servant
Joseph F. Larkin
. r. 81 would amend the national banking
laws so as to allow new banks, authorized by
the deposit Of silver bullion, at say so per
cent OF It's gold value, deposited with the
mint, and the certificates therefor pledged to
secure circulation and allow the old banks to
retire their bonds and put in bullion on same
rate ana terms and make the circulation notes
lree from taxes, state or municipal. Then
our nation will soon become the money
iehdlng nation of the world, whereas now we

money for, and the borrowers pay the taxes.

you well know.

note OF the 10th is received. l agree

suffering. In many instances the
proclamation was forestalled, and
heavy contributions kept coming in

GRAND FORKS, Jan. 25.-The re-
submission talk that is being indulged
in in many parts Of the state is not
looked on with favor among the men,
bers Of the legislature from this part Of
the state. 1t is generally believed and
Is undoubtedly true that should the
proposition of prohibition come before
the people Of the state again it would
carry the same as it did before. The
members, whom man has interviewed
regarding the matter, state that moth
ing whatever has been even talked in
Bismarck. There is a growing senti-
ment in favor of repeating the penalty
clause of the prohibitory law, and in
that way to put the matter of license in
the hands of the councils Of the diff
ferent towns. This would not bring the
matter UP for a vote of the people
and there are many who think that it
would be good plan. Each town could
thus control it's own liquor business.
One of the causes of the prohibition
matter being talked at his time Is the
statement just sent in by State Treas
urer Nichols, showing the woeful con-
dition Of the state financially. Some
thing has got to be done and that
shortly to raise funds for state pur-
poses. The people are now taxed to the
utmost and the present indications are
that a spendthrift legislature will make
1t necessary to cut the appropriations
to the schools of the state down to d
sum that will result in their being
closed. According to that report the
state will have for the maintenance
Of state institutions for the next two
years the sum of $171, 900. The peniten-
tiary alone will require $150,000 The
university wants $106,000 and the agri-
cultural college wants $59, 600. The sum
available and that needed Is widely at
variance and the question Of what Is
to be done is coming home to every
voter in the state. The present legis-
lature, in the matter Of clerks, have
been very profigate with the states
money, and at the present time there
are enough clerk pages and other en-
ployes about the capitol to do the work
for a legislature OF twice the size OF
the one Of North Dakota To a great
extent license would relieve the
stringency, and the friends of such
measure as mentioned will take advan-
tage Of the hard-up condition Of the
state to push the matter to an issue.
