BOUND OVER TO THE GRAND
 JURY.
The Three Mesa Oisy Prisoners Held to Answer Today for the Ktli>
 ing of the Tramp

to Answer Today for the KtII>
 ing of the Tramp
 The case against Riggs, Steele and Daley wss tried:st Mesa Oity today and resulted in the prisoners being held over to the grand jury iu the sum of g 900.
 Dr. Wylie had she body of the dead tramp dieiuterred and made thorou9h examination of she skull, opening the bone and extracting the brain for ex- animation. On shs stand the doctor failed to etate.positively that death was due 60 she wounds on the sbull, though it wss admitted that the wounds might have caused death.
 The case of the prisoners was con ducted by Measrs. Morton < Snowman of Mesa City and F. Flanagan of this oity. The prosecution did not show 8 very strong case and the defense refused to show their hand being content to al low ths prisoners to be bound over Should the grand jury return true bills against the prisoners is is evident that much more testimony will be offered on bosh eides.
 As we go to press the prisoners friends are making an effort to secure bail end it is thought they will bs suo- ceeaful and the prisoners will be re- leased until the grand jury meets.
 MessFs. Eugene Daley, John Riggs and Henry Steel. the three men chsrg- ed with the murder of the tramp Rh Mesa City and who were given pre- liminaFy hearing at Mesa City yester- day aud bound over to await the sction os the grand jnry, were brought to this city last evening, heviDg been unable to give bail end they will remain in jail until the grand jury has disposed of theiF case.
 Mir. Dave Terry who WAS arrested shortly after the crime sEd held ss Q witness in the oese was also brought to Phoenix and this morning a warrant was sworn out before Justice Johnstone charging him with the murder of that bFamp and he will be given a hearing ia this city tomorrow morning.
 A warrant was also sworn ous a couple of deys ago for the arrest of NJ. J. Forster of Mesa City on the same charge and telegram sent to Tucson to arrest him for the crime. Though hs had been as home fof several days after the killing no warrant for his aF- rest Was issued until efler he had ief5 for Tucson. Yesterday afternoon asc- ond telegram was sent to Tucson eff oers not to arrest. Mf Forster as the chsrge against him could not be sub- stantistad and She officers here had as oerteined that the ettemps to implios 6 him had been from motives of revenge and that he was innocent of She crime

Poor and Weak

Catarrh and Bronchial Trouble
 Had no Appetite Now Better in
 Every Way-A Delicate Child.
 ssSome time since I took sudden cold and could net get rid of it. Being subject to catarrh and bronchial trouble coughed terribly. I lost my appetite and grew poor and weak and I did not feel like work. I began taking Hoods Sarsapa- rilla. In a short time the cough disap- peared, slept well, had good appetite and I was better in every way. Last spring was not feeling well, I had no ap- petite and no strength. I resorted to Hoods Sarsaparilla and. soon felt more like work. My little nephew was deli cate child and had humor which trou- bled him so he could not rest at night He has taken a few bottles of Hoods Sar- sapariIIa and now he has a good appetite and is able to sleep" MISS ABBIE J.

ARBITRATION TREATY.
Three Million English Laborers Re
 quest It.

| NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-William Rsn-
 dsll Cseamer, for nearly forty years one
 of the most conspicuous of the English
 public men who have risen from the
 ranks, is on board the steamer St. Paul
 which is due here this evening. He
 bears an address to the United States Senate from the officers of 1000 trades
 unions, representing in the aggregate 3,000,O00 members of organized labor, pseying ehst body to pass 8 sFesty
 of arbitration between the United States and Great Britain. A copy of this address will be presented 50 each
 member of she Senate. This movement grows out of the fact that on previ- ous visit in the interest of inter national arbitration, Dr.Oresmer wss repeatedly
 met with the suggestion that the move ment emsuated from the sristocrscy of Great Britain rather than from the masses. The English delegate was the founder of the Workmep's Peace Asso- cistioa, an immense orgsniz stion of English workiuguen pledged to oppose standing armies and wsFs between nations, has sat in She House of Com mons as labor member for one of the most populous districts of London and notwithstanding the fact that he start ed in life with scarcely any schooling and ss 8 csFpsnteF's apprentice, has gained an international reputstion ss 8 publicisb and humanitarian.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY and the mem
 bers Of his Cabinet would doubtless be
 much amused at the persistence with
 which new war scares aFe launched
 through the columns of the yellow
 journals, if the subiecs were not too
 serious and important to be regarded
 from a ioculsr point of view. Seeing how easy the scared have been foeted
 and with what svidity they have been
 pushed along by the gullible, gang of Walt Street speculators got up one and
 according to the financial reports, they
 succeeded in hsecing thousands of
 easily frightened speoulators out of
 large sums Of money by using their war scare to hammer down prices of specu- swallow sny sort of crazy story that
 interruptions newspapers may choose this sort of thing Of late the Navy Department cannot order 8 vessel to be repaired or the General of the Army cannot discuss the need of additional
 cosss defenses without it being taken in some querteE to mean that war is ex-
 pecsed in 8 few days. The only remedy
 is for sensible people to exercise their sense h the choice of the newspapers
 they read. Ae matter of fact, while the yellow journals of New York and the speculators of Wall Street were ! hysteRiosl over the alleged canRer of
 war, the. President and his Cabinet were quietly attending to the routine duties l of their position, not dresDlDg of such ! an awful thing ss war. It would be SIX pectiDg too much of peFveres human nature to expect that this country would never again engage in war, but it | can bs truly said Shat there is no danger Of the good people of shis con ntry going 1 to elsep scme night in peace and walk 1 ing the next morning 50 find the coun-

Who Is to Blame I?

About three weeks ago IL telegram
Assistent Post Master General at Wash
ington, ID. c., and one also to Superin-
tendent Day at New Orleans, signed by
some of the most prominent business
men OF Opelousas, iii which those Off
clals were informed, or rather were in
tended to be informed, that our mails
had been entirely suspended by quar-
antlnes. and asking for relief. No re-
ply was received from either message.
We were informed this week that the
postal authorities at Washington City
had announced that they had nat been
Informed OF any interruption spf the
mails and were not aware tihf the
mails had been stopped. j
Now, it is evident that some onn is to
blame for the failure of ,elcg1tms to
reach their destination. Who ,can it
heY 1t was sent over the line td,f the
Western Union Telegraph Csnpany
and if it failed 60 reach the Assistant
Postmaster General and SuperiDtena-
ant Day, the fault could be at the Gool
of no one but that of the Company. We
cannot believe these high aud careful
officials have msrepreseutett Tie facts.
The failure of the mail facilities, sup
plies an abundance of g,ist az the mill
of the Western Union Telegraph Com
paDy, whilst it causes incalculabie trou-
BILE and expense to all business men.
We wisl. our readers to understand
that whilst we are in favor of keeping
rigid quarantine against all infectious
matter, we at the same time insist upon
it that, the power should not be sense
lessly abused. There are many timid
souls who would quarantine the sun
beams if some alaim!st would say they
are possibly infected.
We did hear it suggested that the
telegraphic dispatches, should be fumi
gated before being taken oft the wires
to be carried through the town. 1t
may be that some such preventive
has been resorted tn with the dispatch
to Washington City, and that in the
conise Of tim" it may be allowed to
pass on its way to its destination.
