THE NEWS OF MOHAVE.
A Letter From Kingman and Vicinity
 on General Topics.

Kingman, AriZ. Dec. 2S.-(Special correspondence of The Republican.)- Mohave county is one of the large st and yet the least settled in respect to population in Arizona. The county extends from the Nevada and Utah lines on the norun to Yuma county Cn the south, the Colorado river separ- ates it from California on the west and the counties of Coconino and Va vapai bound it on the east. The length is fully 200 miles and the width is 108, as between the COconinO line and the Colorado river, taking the Santa Fe Pacific road as a guidi n2 line, which runs west by south in it's course through this county. The pop ulation does not exceed 5000, and the registration of 1896 fell short of 700. Its record of shipments shows ores and concentrates, together with sev- eral thousand head of cattle and some sheep. The fruit crop is of the best in quality but light in quantity though it commands first class prices at home and in neighboring localities, Winslow, Prescott and the Needles getting a treat when M5ihave peaches are in season. Tha Sandy, below Kingman sends up melons to the ex- clusien of the California product.

A LINOTYPE ECCENTICITY.
Explanation of an Epithet Applied tc
 MT. Fuller.

Every innovation encounters diff culties, the most obstructive of which is ignorance, and people must be raised by education to the level of new things. Now a great many people cannot read matter set up by the lino- type, which has methods of it's own, and many of its utterances require explanation and interpretation. Not long ago The Republican published tte following clear and concise observa- tion regarding Senator Heitfeld:

AN ENIBEZZLER, CAUGHT.
Thomas III. Stout Who Defrauded q
Firm Some Years Ago.

Thomas III. Stout Who Defrauded q
Firm Some Years Ago.
New York, Feb. 2.-Since the latter
part of 1892 the police of this city
have been on the lookout for one L.
III. Stout, defaulting bookkeeper, for
the brokerage firm of Jones, Kenneth
&Hopkins, who decamped after hav-
ing, it is alleged, defrauded that firm
out of $4,000 on forged checks. On
Friday the Cincinnati chief of police
notified the police here that q man Of
the description of Stout had been ap-
pretended in that city and asked that
some one be sent to that place to
identify the prisoner if possible. Mr..
c.. A. Libaire, of the Holland Trust
company, where Stout is said to have
secured the money he embezzled by
forging the name of his firm to the
checks he presented there, has identi-
fed the prisoner, and it is said the
latter will return to New York with
out requisition papers. Stout's family
is most respectable one, living at
present in this city.

bitration treaty with amendments. All
but two of these amendments are
merely verbal. One Of the two which
are essential strikes out the clause
providing for the selection Of King
Oscar as umpire when one is consid-
cred necessary.
The other Important ament:lnent is
an addition to article i Of the treaty
and reads as follows: ''No question
which affects the foreign or domestic
policy of either OF the contracting
parties or the relations Of either with
any other state or power, by treaty or
otherwise, shall be subject to arbitra-
ton under this treaty, except by spe-
cial agreement" The amendment
eliminating the umpire clause was
agreed to by a vote Of 8 to 1. The
vote in opposition is understood to
have been cast by Senator Gray Of
Delaware. The vote on the motion to
report the treaty favorably as amend
ed was 6 to 4.
An amendment declaring in explicit
terms that the Alaskan boundary
question should not be included in the
agreement for arbitration, was voted
down as being unnecessary. The
chairman was instructed to ask the
senate to give the treaty considera-
ton at as early day as practicable.
1t is expected that when taken up it
will lead to a protracted and animated
debate in executive session.
Washington, Feb. 2.-The Nicaragua
canal bill occupied the attention of the
senate most of the day but no progress
was made toward a final vote. Mr..
Morgan, in charge of the measure,
sought to secure an agreement for a
vote tomorrow or Thursday but the
opponents Of the measure, led by Mr..
agreement. Shortly after the opening
the senate went into executive session.
The arbitration treaty was presented
with amendments and, briefly dis
cussed. The senate ratified the Jap
anese treaty with reference to trade
marks.
When the open session was resumed
a resolution by Mr.. Stewart Pop,
New was agreed to, requesting the
secretary of the interior for informa-
ton as to the progress of the survey in
Alaska. MI. Chandler Rep., N. H.
offered a resolution directing the SEN
ate committee on privileges and cleo
tions to inquire into all the circum-
stances Of the recent Delaware cleo
ton. Another brief executive session
was held and the senate adjourned.
The house had a busy day. An I'M
usually large number Of bills were
passed but few of them were of any
considerable Importance. It was sus.
pension day, and the usual obstructive
tactics were unavailing.. About 4 p.
m. the diplomatic and consular appro.
priation bill was taken up and fair
progress made before the hour of ad.
journment.

THE MAYOR WAS SICK
THEREFORE THE POLICE BOARD
DID NOT MEET
A Large Crowd in Attendance, Princl-

There was no meeting of the police
commissioners on yesterday morning,
whereat there was core disappointment

ner report has been in circulation for
several days past that there were to be
several sensations sprung at yesterdays
meeting, and while no one would cay just
what they were, in fact, would hardly
so much as intimate their character,
there has been much solemn wagging
of heads and the dropping of sage re-
marks as to startling impending devel-
opments. OF course it was known that
officer Kolles case was to come up for
final action, and that Officer Spencer, of
the East Side, had been cited to appear
and show cause why he should not be

common consent, was in come manner

fifteen or twenty of the officers spent
some very uneasy moments walking the
carpet. But it all came to naught.
officer Kolle was promptly on hand to
learn his fate at the earliest possible
moment and Spencer was also much in
evidence 1t may be that Spencer is not
an ideal policeman, as some Of his su-
perion, seem to think, but from all ap-
pearances he is one of the most popular
men or the East Side. AS it was, yes

population gathered at the city hall to
hear testimony in behalf of their fellow

in the meeting room, overflowed into the
corridors and extended in scattering
line almost to the front entrance of the
building, all quietly waiting for the op-
portunity which never came.
