 Once Unplaced.

LONDON, Sept. 22.-At the first days racing of the Manchester September meeting to-day in the race for the Peel Park plate, the Lorillard-Beresford sta ble's Manate, ridden by Tod Sloan, ran third in a field of five. The race was won by H. McCalmot's two-year-old Naughty.
 Sloan also rode the Lorillard-Beresford cap for 800 sovereigns, but did not suc- ceed in getting a place. G. H. Plum mer's Carnation won the race. Sloan's third mount of the day was more for tunate, for, with him in the saddle, the three-year-old brown colt Ban II won the Thursday selling plate of 200 sovereigns, the winner to be sold at auction for 100 sovereigns. There were eight horses in this race

TOUGH ON THE TELEPHONE.
Arrest of a Phoenix Man Charged
 With Vigorous English.

The Phoenix business man whose name in this chronicling of the affair shall be known as A, was arrested yesterday on a warrant from Justice Kincaid's court, issued on the com plaint of B, a man in the same line of business. B charges A with over loading the telephone wires with pro- fanity and scurrilous expressions. The conversation was not extended, but it was hot. A merely told B what he thought he was. and his opinion was backed by swear words. There would have been difficulty in proving that any such conversation took place at all but for one circumstance, though A, who is man of integrity, would not likely have denied it.
 The condemning circumstance was that after this telephone conference was over, A felt that he owed the central girl reparation. As theory, of course, was that the girl had been listening to his remarks. He accord ingly went to- the central office to apologize to her and inquire what damage in the way of burnt wires and misplaced switches had been done. The girl said that she had not over heard the conversation, that she never listened when people were talking and that if she had the inclination to be an eavesdropper she lacked the time
 She examined the machinery about the office, and the system was appar- ently intact. She said that on several occasions the system had been struck by lightning which followed a wire into the office, creating some little commotion, but there were 50 many wires at the central that the electric current was quickly subdivided and carried off harmlessly in detail. This, she thought, was probably what hap pened to As talk. A subsequent ex- animation of the system showed the wires to As and B's offices were fused in places.
 This is probably the first instance of the arrest of a man for swearing over a telephone. AS matter of fact it is no more of an offense to swear over telephone wire than it is . to swear over clothesline or a grape vine. But the biblical injunction Swear not at all," has been incor- porated into the statute books of nearly every state and territory of the TTpinp

TRAIN WRECK.
Beer, Cigars and Coal MiXed-Fas-

At about TAO o'clock yesterday morning the M. & P train from Mari copa furnished an additional record for the history book of railroad wrecEs of tbis territory. The train consist ing, as usual, of freight cars, combi- nation baggage and smoker, one pas senger and a Pullman left Tempe at 7:30 o'clock. and had reached a cul- vert bridge crossing the Salt River canal, about three and one-half miles east of this city, when a freight, two coal cars and the combination car left the track, the first three so disposing Of themselves as to preclude the idea of repairs, and the latter being unin- jured further than a wrecked front platform.
 The first car was loaded with keg beer mostly, with some cigars in crates and a number of gilded semi-oval signs announcing the fact that "An- heuser-Busch Beer" was "For Sale Here" all consigned to MT. L. Melczer. Most of the signs presented the ap-

HE KNEW HIS BIZ.

A wheel expert looked at our wheels yesterday, and then looked all over the city. He was picking out good wheel for friend, and generally such a buyer will look closer than he would if buying one for himself He came back and bought one of our $35 ARGUS wheels, saying that it was a better wheel, in his opinion, than anything else shown in town, outside of our store. He appreciated the fact that we had better wheels than the Argus, and said his friend would pay as high as $50, but as it was a better wheel than he expected to get for $50, he would take it. A great many are buying the ADMIRAL at $45 and the Argus at $35. Why don't you?

pearance of the after-effect of a well planned and deliberately deyeloned wrestle with their fellow companions the beer, but the latter was uniniured and as the wreckers rolled it from nn' derneath the wreck down the plank plane toward a special car sent for it's transfer it looked inst as smiline and full Of breathing liquid good fel7 lowship as when it shook hands for the first round
 The other two wrecked cars, a flat and cattle, were partly laden with coal for the company and beyond the cost of loading the coal and the wood value of the cars there Is not much to chronicle.
 It was reported that a woman, the wife of one Of the section men of the investigation discloses that the injury was nothing greater than an arm slightly skin abrased.
 The mail and some of the passengers were brought to town on the engine and Superintendent Porter sent out all of the carriages, hacks and car riages necessary to transport the bal ance to their different destinations.
 Peculiar results generally occur in every wreck, and this one presents a strange feature. In some unexplain- able manner one Of the long steel rails curled upwards and plunged through the freight car high up and about the center of the front end, pushing it's entire length through, making exit on the left side of the car about six feet from the front. and well up toward the top.
 The rails and road bed are torn up for a distance of about 300 feet, the ties being ground into splinters too small for use even as toothpicks.
 The cause of the wreck is difficult Of ory presented is by Superintendent Porter, to the effect that 8 brake beam on one of the forward cars dropped a bolt CT shoe, and this bolt or shoe lying edgewise of the rail, a front wheel of the freight car caught it and mounted the rail, sliding off from the track and the rail spreading caused the other cars to follow. The train was running at the rate of about fifteen miles an hour, having slowed up as the culvert was approached, and as the read all along that section was kNONE lO U0 Ill uISI CidSS CouulIiOH, J, there does not seem to be a reason fer atta ching blame for the accid 2nt to any person.
 The scene at the wreck. formed by the torn road bed, the car wreckage, bright alfalfa fields on either side of the flowing canal, large and shady cot tonwood trees, and off little to the left in a grove, the typical Arizona adobe and tent adjunct, was sufficient to attract the attention of the kodak fends Of which there were several on the train, and the probabilities are strong that the Bungtown Bug!e of Indiana, the Blear-Eyed Speerer O: Coo-Zoo, Kan, and the Squashtowu Sentinel of Quohofromgogogue, N. H will soon have their columns embel- lished with picture of the "Terribls 1 Wreck in Arizona, from which your correspondent barely escaped with his precious life"
 The regular train went out las night, arrangements having been com pleted during the day for transfer a

ON WITH THE DANCE!
The People of Williams Not Worried
 Over the Matter.

Williams, April S.-(Special cores pondence of The Republican, .)-The war excitement is dividing interest with Easter bonnets in Williams today. Willie Lent is not very vigorously ob- served here those who do live up to the doctrines of their faith are antici- pating the period of relaxation with more or less eagerness. For, be 1t known, there is no town in the terri tory of Arizona more devoted to so- cial pleasures than the little city that sits so picturesquely under the shadow of Bill Williams mountain.
 The particular form of diversion Is dancing. Perhaps you have heard of the superiority of the Williams girl in that line. She is right up to date in all the Terpsichorean novelties and can two-step with quite the grace and ease of the New York society girl. She turns up her retrousse nose at com mon, old fashioned dances like quad rifles, and the dude that can't waltz, two-step or schottische he is placed on the wall-f1ower list and finally con- Pelled to engage private tutor. When he becomes fairly proficient he is elig- ible in society, and is in the swim, so to speak. At least one dance each week is given at the opera house, and sometimes two or thre extras are sand wiched in
 Dancing is not the only form of amusement and recreation, however. There is considerable literary and mu- sical inclination fn Williams Though still in it's youth, the AGelphi is a very fourishing organization which devotes Wednesday evening of each week to T 0f fo r(~If a 1rJfh hC- The usual programme of readings recitations and discussions is inter- spersed with music and an occasional debate on some subject Of current in- Terest. Topics of political nature are drowned upon. At a public m 3eting to be held April 20 at the M. B. church the always interesting and timely sub- Ject, "Is marriage Failure?" vii give the debators an opportunity to display their forensic powers. Two young single men will assume the af- .irmative side of the question and twG married women of mature age will oD- pose them. Henry F. Ashurst, vel remembered in Phoenix as the young est member of the Nineteenth legis ture, is president of the Adelphi Ht turned lawyer after graduating iron the legislature.
 The patriotic spirit is not bubblins over in Williams. It could be sup pressed with a hand grenade. There may be latent anxiety to volunteer bu there has been no pronounced demon stration of it. Perhaps it is modest! that keeps several able-bodied young men who haven't even a job to worry about, from coming forward and evinc ing a desire to go to the front ani light for Cuban independence ant American honor. Company I, N G A., of Flagstaff is on the other hand fairly boiling with patriotic fervor and the boys are showing a commend able interest in affairs of soldiery an( state.

The report Of the board OF inquiry
into the Maine disaster has been made

The report Of the board of inquiry
into the Maine disaster has been made
to the president and by him sent to con-
gress. The report makes no new de-
velopment beyond what has already
been published, except in the minor
details. This report will be read with
deep interest, and it is probable that
some OF the parties making the inquiry
will now feel at liberty to express them
selves more freely as to the cause OF the
accident. The report finds that the
Maine was blown up from the outside,
but does not indicate by what means, nor
who were the guilty parties. The presi-
dent has notified the Spanish govern
ment OF the result Of the findings of the
court, without demand for indemnity
or explanation, and so the matter rests.
The probability OF war between the two
countries seems TO be remote and efforts
will be made to settle the matter up
amicably. But day may bring forth
an entire change OF the program.
