there will be sufficient demand to stiffen
exchange rates next week with further
gold shipments as a consequence The sup

very eager and any extra demand has to
be met by gold shipments. The volume OF

 ENTERTAINMENT! Charged Against Fred. G. Hughes, of TuesOn.-A Warrant issued
 For His Arrest.

 Found.

TUCSoN, Ariz., Oct. l4.--A warrant of arrest was issued this morning on complaint of the board of directors of the Arizona Historical Society, charging Fred. G. Hughes with for gery and embezzlement of three thousand dollars, the sum appro pr;ated by the last legislature on behalf of the Historical Society. It IS claimed that the warrants for the appropriation were secured by Hughes forging the names of the directors of the society and he after wards sold the warrants and appTo- priated the money. Hughes has been clerk of the board of supervisors. He was informed on Tuesday that if he failed to make good the warrants of the Historical Society he would be removed as clerk of the board of supervisors. That night an attempt was made to burn the court house by making fire in the cellar under the board of supervisors room, which vas discovered in time to prevent the destruction of the build ing. Yesterday, the investigation looked bad for Hughes. He soon disappeared from the city. His whereabouts cannot be ascertained. Hughes was president of tho last Arizona legislative council. one of the leaders of the ATizonatdemoc racy and president of the Arizona Pioneer and Historical Society and chairman and leading spirit of the legislative committee created to in veStigate the Arizona board of con- trol. He was an inveterate gambler He leaves a wife and twelve children entirely destitute.

The following synopsis of Gov, ernor McCord's report has been telegraphed from Washington:
 The annual report for the last fiscal year of Myron H. McCord governor of Arizona, made public today, makes an immense volume, and besides ordinary matters, con- tsins many photographs, statistical tables and historical sketches. An elaborate plea is also made for immi- grants.
 The population of the territory is estimated at S7.5O0. an increase of several thousand within year. The people of the teTrItory are a unit on the subject in favor of admission, and statehood is asked as n right denied to Arizona, when, with even less reason, it has been granted to other commonwealths.
 The year has been prosperous one with stockmen. with improving natural conditions and with higher prices for their product. The same favorable conditions apply 10 the sheep raising industry of the terri tory. In mining the territory is experiencing a period of high pros petity. 4 number of new discoveries of wonderful richness have been worked. The main product is gold, from such mines as the Pearce, the Fortuna, the Congress anal the United Verde. Copper follows a close second in svalue The silver product has steadily declined for years, it now being about S500,000 per annum.
 The prime necessity for Arizona is water storage, and the governor urges national aid for the reclama- ton of the vast areas of rich plane land now arid and unutilized all over the southeastern expanse of the territory. The money thus expended could readily be returned to the national treasury through the safe of the lands reclaimed.
 The Indians of Arizona are now entirely peaceable. Their total num- Der is estimated as 37 723. Of these the several Apache tribes are set down at 5,l09; Naysjoes, 2O.5O0; Moquis, 20O0; Pima and plain tribes, 7,20O; Mojavss, Haulpais and Chim. ehuivis, 2,SS5.
 The total enrolment in the com mon schools is 1336l. with 32i teach- CTS. The territorial debt is S965,- 5S0.l2, less cash on hand of S79.S20. or the debt, $2l96l5 is floating in the shape of interest bearing war rants. The county and municipal debt of the territory is set at Sl,- 375,027. or the total amount, the Territorial Loan Commission has funded Sl,7S2, ,O00in territorial five per cents.
 The assessment as fixed by the Territorial Board of Equalization for 1897 is S30,6l3,7O2, a gain of about Sl,0O0,OO0 over the previous assessment.
 The national guard of the terri tory consists of ten companies, with 4Si enlisted men and officers.
