FUSION.
Democrats and Populists Will
Combine.
The Division of the Ticket is Not Yet
Decided Upon, Between the
Parties.

The present indications are that
the Democrats and Populists will
combine on county ticket again this
year. The Populisus will hold their
county convention Sept. 3rd. and the
Democrats will hold theirs Sept. 14th
Fusion is in the air, but it has not yet
been decided what the Populists are
to leave the Democrats. There are
Democratic aspirants for nearly all
of the county officers, and it may be
that the Democrats will ask the
Populists to content themselves with
the legislative ticket, and the Demo-
Gratis would probably be willing for
the Populists to run up against it if
they want to.
Attorney A. E. Clark. who is re-
cognized leader Of the Populists at
tended the Belshazzar feast given in
honor of Chairman Jones, of the
Democratic National committee, at
St.Paul Wednesday night, and
imbibed so deeply of the enthusiasm
created by the Arkansas politician
that he actually had the tsmerity to
declare today that he believed that
John Lind has chance to win. Mr..
Clark has signified his willingness to
take the stump next fall in the state.
Mr.. Clark has been talked of a good
deal of late as likely candidate for
state senator, but states he will posi-
lively decline nomination. He is
not out for anything this year.

CHAIRMAN Baker of the Michigan
Bologna party refused to accept
$500 silver dollars for debt of that
amount, alleging that such dollars
were frauds, having less than fifty
cents worth of bullion value each.
And yet, for every possible purpose
for which money can be used, except,
perhaps, to pay Fred Bakers claim
against Stephen Baldwin, those dol
lars were just as valuable as the
same number of dollars of gold. But
Mr.. Baker is clamorous for the gov
ernment to coin the surplus silver
of the world into just such dol
lars, alleging that then they would
be as valuable as gold dollars. He
admits, however, that this result
would be brought about by the
cheapenlng of the gold dollar rather
than by enhancing the value of the
silver dollar. According to Mr..
Bakers politico- financial gospel, it
is fraud to pay debts in silver dollars
as good as gold unless the value OF a
a gold dollar is first cut in half. This
may look all right from free silver
demopop standpoint, but TO other
people it cannot but appear slightly
inconsistent, and seems to partake OF
a robust degree of demagoguery.

The prompt action of the admin
istration in dealing with the De-
LONE matter is very satisfactory in
deed to the American people. He
has been arrogant in his demands for
the observance of neutrality OF the
part of the United States, and his
downfall will cause no sorrow in this
country. A diplomat can slap Uncle
Sam in the face if he wants to-but
the effect on the diplomat will be
much more disastrous than on the
old gentleman whom he assaults.

LONG ARR.AIGNED.
The Bond Of inc EX-COElcCfOT
 Fixed ct $ZOOO.
# Was Not Executed YeSferday, But r!T. Long Will likely be Releases Today.

Ex-City Collector A. A. Long was arraigned before Justice Johnstone yesterday morning charged with a transportation of the city funds. His bond was fixed at s2,OO0 and his preliminary examination was set for next Tuesday. The bond was lighter than it was expected that it would be, inasmuch as the amiunt is considerably less than the sum which the collector is charged with having misappro- priated. Still it is regarded as sui fcient for the purpose intended.
 MT. Long did not furnish his bond as was expected yesterday. His attor- ney, H. NJ. Willis, and other friends, took the matter up yesterday morning and by noon had secured three bonds men, Charles Goldman, Louis Melczer and A. A. Staley. At first only the verbal consent of these gentlemen was secured. The form of the bond was made out and the instrument was signed by Messrs. Staley and MelcZer. When it was afterward presented to MT. Goldman he was of different mind and declined to sign it. The bond as it was was strong enough, but MT Willis not knowing to what extent Messrs. Staley and Melczer were in- fuenced by the belief that MT. Gold man was going on the bond and being unable to communicate with them, d.d not present the bond for approval. He said last night that the bond would be filed this morning and Mr Long would be released

MILITARY MATTERS.
Recruiting Of Gov. MCCOrd'S
 Regiment in Progress.
Sixfy-fivs Candidates for Admission paSSet-The Work Will be Fin iShed by Saturday Night.

The executive chambers were thronged again yesterday by people on military business. The Cnly changes made by the governor was the substi- tuition of Emanuel Drachman for K. l.. Hart as second lieutenant of the southern company. MT. Drachnlan had been originally designated as one of the officers Of that company. He has been a member of the national guard for eight years and rose from the rank to the captaincy Of one of the Tucson companies.
 The governor appointed Otto Ebei- hardt chief musician of the regiment, and George Rittm ayer and Ludwig Bloesch as musicians.
 Regarding the enlistment and mus tsr1ng in. which began yesterday morning at the Hotel Adams, Captain J. A. Baldwin, who is in charge, says that recruiting is going on enthusi- asticafiy and that the men are eager and anxious to enlist in the governor s regiment, knowing that they have faith in him as ar able, broad minded and capable commander. Yesterday more than one hundred presented themselves for enlistment, and pr. Wylie worked like a Trojan and exam ined sixty-five men. He is as thor ough in his examinations as an army surgeon. Captain Baldwin says the men are ar exceptionally fine body Of men, and of splendid physical develop ment. The percentage of the men re- jected for physical causes is less than that in many eastern states. Captain Baldwin says that present indications are that the enlistments will be conl- p1eted by Saturday night and Phoenix will turn out @ company of 106, that will make a record of which the people will be as proud as they are of the grand and heroic deeds of the Rough Riders" who proved their mettle on a Cuban field

ANOTHER KILLING.
The Han Who Made inc Gun Play
 Dropped First.

Frank Johnston, the we'll known cowboy of the Erie Cattle company, ac- companied by his brother, rode into town this afternoon and gave himself up to the authorities, stating that he had killed Andy Darnell at the 7UP ranch in Swishelm mountains about twelve miles north of Mud Springs. To an Orb reporter MT. Johnston gave the following facts concerning the homicide:
 Yesterday afternoon as he was hitching up team of brOnchos, Dar- nell came up to him and commenced to abuse him, calling him all sorts of names, at the same time fiourishing his siX-shooter, threatening to kill Johnston. Frank being unarmed could not help himself. This morning about o'clock DarneH hunted Johnston up they were both working at the ranch and started to pull his gun from his belt, saying he would kill Johnston. Frank being about five steps away. immediately pulled his gun and began to shoot, Darnell falling at the first shot. Johnston immediately saddicd his horse and came to town, as stated above. He was released on his own recognition, until the coriner's jury renders its verdict.
 Coroner Williams and an officer lief about 4 o'clock for the scene of the shooting and will return tomorrow.
 Darnel1 was quite we'll known in this city, having raised considerable dis turbance last Fourth of July by shoot ing at c. A. Overlook at the last steer tying contest, and afterward shooting up the town and defying the officers to arrest him.
 Frank Johnston Is we'll and favor ably known and has always borne 8 good reputation. He was recently mar ried in this city to Miss Josie Morgan The Orb joins with his many friends in hoping that he will soon be cleared from the affair-Bisbee Orb.
 On Wednesday the coroner's jury in the case of the killing of J. A. Darnell brought in verdict of justifiable bom- icide. Frank Johnston was released from custody and has returned to his duties in the valley

Word was sent to the marshal's office that crazy woman was at large. Within a few minutes Marshal Hooker arrived there and Dr. Dameron was sent for. He found her pulse very weak and her temperature was 110. Death came in few minutes. Justice Kincaid was notified and he summoned a jury. On the testimony of Dr. Damsron verdict was returned that the woman had died Of sunstroke. When she was found a mans hat lay near her head. There were two small bottles, enc of which contained what was believed to be q solution of cocaine It was therefore suspected that she had committed sui eide. The doctor said, however, that no poison would have produced the ex- treme temperature which imme ediately preceded death
 Less than a half dozen deaths by sunstroke have been recorded in Phoenix and in every case the victim was found to have been in a debauch or just recovering from one.
 Nothing is known of Pearl St. Claire's history. It is probable that that was not her right name. She had lived in Phoenix several years. When she first came here she was a strik- ingly beautiful woman. She is said to have been highly educated. and was an accomplished musician. For several years sha had been addicted to the use of morphine and cocaine and had grown to be mental and physical wreck. She was about thirty

He was given certificate of enlistment which he showed about town with pardon able pride. When the first surprise that MT. Sargent had determined to enter upon a military career has passed away, interest began to be taken in the successor to his railroad position. All day compliments were showered upon MT. Sargent for his disinterested patriotism and he al

These compliments began to pail on the new recruit before night and he was forced to admit that he was not going to war.

SANTIAGO. August l8.-Gen. Wood
issued an order today directing that
the burning of dead Spanish soldiers
and pauper Cubans no longer
be conducted publicly This
order is the result of horrible
spectacle which was Witnessed at the
cemetery yesterday, when seventy
bodies were placed in the kiln for Gre
nation.
The fire was started but q rainstorm
came up suddenly and put it out before
the work was half done, and q partly
cooked mass of flesh was left over
night because no oil could be procured
to rekindle the fire after the storm
abated. The job was completed this
morning. General Wood dismissed
all cemetery employees this morning
and employed new ones, increasing the
pay of the men in order to insure the
efficiency of the service.
The burning of bodies y ill continue
as it is the best and safest mepas from
a asauitary point OF view of disposing of
