Arizona is noted as being one of the
BEST cattle breeding sections of Uncle
SANS vast domain. Navajo. county
can now lay claim to having the most
prolific, consequently the most valua-
BILE COW, in Arizona, or for that matter
in the entire world. There is a man in
this county who; according to the as
Sessment OF 1896, owned one cow. He
returned to the assessor in 1897, seven
ty-five head of stock cattle, and has
made one or two shipments of beef
cattle, and so far as known has bought
no cattle. Fifty COWS like this one
would soon oVefstock the range and
make their owner millionaire.

According to the corrected duplicate
assessment list of Graham county for
the year 1897, the assessabls property
amounts Eto $2,O08, ,419.88 which will
bring revenue of $76,32O12. This lifts
Che county from a fourth to third
class county. In this change, however,
the increase of expenses only amounts
to about $500. and the revenue from the
edditidngl PROPERTY over what it has
heretofore been will much more than
cover this amount. With the rate at
what it new is in siz months more tho
county viii probably be on cash basis,
which is very encouraging.-G

NOTABLE MURDER TRIAL
MOSELY CONVICTED OF A MYS.
TERiOUS CRIME.
A Big Array Of Counsel, Embracing
Some of the First Lawyers in the
State Were Retained in the Case.

Elkin, n. c., March 25.-(SpeciaD-
The case of State vs.. r. L. Moseley, for
the murder of w. n. Guyer which has
been on trial at Surry Court since last
Thursday, was brought to an end yester-
day evening by the jury findping the de-
fendant guilty of manslaughter. Judge
Greene sentenced him to fifteen years in
the penitentiary. An appeal to the Su-
preme Court was taken. The speeches
of the counsel were all of high order.
but that Of Solicitor Mott on Monday
night was a mastery effort. In fact.
am told by many that it was the speech
or his life. The crime for which Moseley
was convicted was mysterious one, and
he was convicted mainly on his own tes-
timony. Tie claimed that he was awak-
ened one night by light at his bedroom
window. He got his pistol, ran out, call
ed, received no answer and fired at a
dark object on the ground three times,
each ball taking effect. He then went
back INTO the house, got his shotgun,
came back, called again, still no answer;
saw the form standing upright with his
hands over his head, fired his gun; man
iah ulOuhu tut MUST anu INTO the DuDIc
road, where he was found the next day.
The State showed that man shot
through the back, the ball touching the
spinal cord, through the leg, through
the heel, and in the breast, four shot
penetrating the heart, could not move
after being shot. AS the deceased was
shot in this manner and his body was
found sixty feet away from where Nose
ley says he shot him, the jury evidently
did not believe his story. 1t is true oil
was found on the corner of the house,
but defendant did not know it was there
when he was doing the shooting. Bail
was fixed at $4,000 pending the decision
of the Supreme Court. Messrs. Clement
Manley, II. A. Doughton, J. r. Lewellyn,
w. T. Carter and J. f. Hendren appear
cd for the defendant, while Solicitor
Mott, j. w. McNeill, w. T.. Reese and
II. w. Folger represented the State

GREAT BRITAIN WITHDRAWS.
Will not Participate, But Will Only
"Acquiesce" in the Blockade.

COnstantinople, March 25.-The change
in the policy OF Great Britain, fore
shadOwed in these dispatches yesterday,
has assumed definite shape. The recent
massacre of Armenians at Tokat, the
danger of further outbreaks in Anatolia.
and the action of the Pope in semi-of-
fcially pointing out to the Turkish press
and provincial officials that the blockade
of the island of Crete by the fleets OF
the powers, and the support given to the
Turkish forces by the foreign fleets, was
a triumph for the policy of the Sultan,
have had their effect in showing that the
Christians in Arcmnia are in danger of
determination. Consequently, it is semi
officially stated here that the British
Admiral in Cretan waters, has been no
tilted not to send any warships Of Great
Britain to take part in the proposed
blockade of the ports Of Greece. At the
same time, however, in order, apparently,
to avoid an open rupture with the pow
ers, Great Britain will "acquesce" in the
blockade of the Greek ports. According
to reports in diplomatic circles here, the
Powers have already been notified to
this effect, and the withdrawal of Great
Britain from the blockade is one subject
discussed to-day in Court and other
circles The Sultan's advisers are max
ing the best of the situation by pointing
to the fact that Great Britain does not
constitute the whole OF Europe and that
so long as the Sultan has the support of
Russia, France. Germany and Austria,
he has nothing to fear from Great
Britain
1t is stated that Great Britain has
intimated to the powers that If Greece
is blOckaded steps should also be taken
to blockade the principal Turkish ports.
This latest move Of Great Britain in
the Eastern game has undoubtedly call
ed halt for the present in the coercive
measures and may, it is said, bring about
their abandonment

so that a speedy determination of the

so that speedy determination of the
questions involved may be had.
The officials of the Department of JUS
tive had assumed that in view Of the late
decision Of the Supreme court the Joint
Traffic Association would dissolve, as
it is understood the Western Associa-
tions are doing, but information has
reached them that the Joint Traffic AS
sociation intends to still further contest
the questions involved, and hence the ap-
peal. There is no question at the De-
partment of Justice that last Mondays
decision covers every material point in
VOWED in the Joint Traffic Association
case, and so far as the officials are able
to see, there can be only one issue to the
contest, and that is the association must
dissolve 1t also is their opinion that the
Passenger Associations come as clearly
within the prohibitions of the law as do
the Freight Association. 1t is believed
that the appeal will be argued and decid-
ed before the summer recess of the court.

1T IS STILL A DEADLOCK
THE KENTUCKY LEGISLATURE
FAILS AGAIN TOELECr.
Rumors of Boilers Being Bought by
Hunter, But His Vote Stood
Same as Yesterday.

Louisville. KY, March pa special
to the Evening Post from Frankfort,
says: The third ballot for United States
Senator to succeed J. c. s. Blackburn,
was taken to-day by the Kentucky Leg
islature. Before the two houses met in
joint session it was stated that Governor
Bradley would receive 45 Democratic
and "a Republican votes. Rumors of
bribery have been afloat all day, and it
was said at eleven O'clock that the Hun
ter forces had brought back two of the
Republican boilers into line, and that
Hunter, the nominee, would certainly
win. 1t was also said that the sound
money Democrats would vote with the
Hunter forces to make continuous ses-
sion to-day, and vote till sundown or till
some candidate was elected.
The Republican State Central commit
tee is in session here to-day awaiting
news from the Senatorial fight. The
committee is strongly for Hunter.
During the voting, Representive Nance
(bolting Republican,, arose and hotly de-
MED that he had been bought, bribed or
"monkeyed' with. He concluded by
voting for the Republican nominee, DR..
W. G. Hunter, who. however, could not
VIII, Receiving only OF votes, % Delng De- -
cessary to choice. Blackburn, (silver,
Democrat, received 40, while Davie,
(soundmoney DemocraD, received 13,
an increase of two over yesterday. There
was one scattering vote.
Hunter also received the votes OF
Stout, Baird and Norman, free silver
Democrats.
No attempt was made to make the ses-
sion continuous, and without further re-
marks, the joint session adjourned.
1t is understood that the State Central
Committee will take a hand in the fight,
and will endeavor to whip the Bradley
boilers into line, but this seems improba-
BILE now, and the premction is freely
made that if a Senator is elected to sue
ceed Blackburn, he will be Governor w.
o. Bradley and not w. G. Hunter.
