THE CHARGE AT SAN JUAN.
Onward Draper Tells of That Historic
 Incident

D. D. Draper, one of the few Rough Riders" who have returned to Arizona, yesterday related the charge on San Juan hill at Santiago de Cuba ''Roose- velt," he said, gave Us the order to advance, but who issued the general order none Of us knew. The first thing we knew of anything coming our way was the cheering and yelling all along the line. Then we all charged up the hill as fast as we could go, firing as we ran. until we got to the top Of the hill, and the Spaniards went down as fast on the other side, with us pumping all the lead we could into them
 MT Draper described San Juan hill as being a gradual slope to the top, the summit being somewhat lower than the butte at Tempe. He thought II was something over twice as high as the Monihon building.
 Did you see any of the generals while at Santiago?" he was asked. NI believe I saw Shafter once. He kept in the rear pretty much. But Joe Wheeler was everywhere. It was hard to tell where he wasn't Just then an, old acquaintance came along and calculated: "Why, Draper, I'm glad to see you"
 We'll replied that gentleman, you're no gladder to see me back than I am to get back"

ROUGH RIDERS AT WHITE HOUSE
They Let Loose a ''Wah-Wahoo' Cheer
 When Talking to the President

Washington, Sept 2e--Eleven nlem- bars of Roosevelt's Rough Riders aweke the White House from it's digni- lied quiet Saturday. They were Ser Seant Frank Hill, Sergeant Thomas O'Neill, Corporal Frank Briggs, Quar- termaster Sergeant J. S. Mohler. and Privates William Woods. Ben Slaugh- ter, J. s. Moore and Elvin c. Ash of troop G, and Sergeant F. G. Devore, Wagoner c. s. Ryan and Private C. E. Marshall of troop K. Some Of them have been at the hospital for convales- cents established at Washington bar racks, and others are on their way home from Montauk and stopped over in Washington to see the sights. They reached the White House after the regular visiting hours, but the door keepers were lenient and permitted them to enter. But the Rough Riders wanted to see President Mckinley, and because they were from Roosevelt s regiment one of the White House em- ployes took their request to the presi- dent. It is unusual for Mir. Mckinley to receive unofficial visitors outside of the regular reception hours, except by special arrangement, but he responded
 
 down into the East room to see the pie turesque group. He shook hands with all of them, made inquiries about their health, and put the eleven men very much at their ease. Then he asked them if they would enlist again if their services were needed. The answer came in a manner unexpected by the president.
 Will we?" yelled the Rough Riders 1 in chorus. Well, wah wahoo.''
 It was the "wah-wahoo'' which start led the echoes in the old mansion. Mr. Mckinley looked surprised, then pleased, and laughed as the last notes of the vociferous response died away. Then he shook hands all round again and went back to his desk.
 One of the Rough Riders had his arm | in a sling. He is Sergeant Devore, who was wounded at Las Guasimas on June A, when Allyn Capron, the cap tain of his troop, and Hamilton Fisn, fellow sergeant, went down before ] the Spanish bullets.

thing to see four laborers carrying a grand piano at speed of four miles an hour.
 Prices of nearly all commodities are very low They are nominally about the same as in this country, but the reckoning is in Mexican money. A curious circumstance observed by Major Evans was that there was not anywhere in the city a merchant of the Jewish race, which is represented in town in the civilized world.
 Another surprising thing upon which travellers have not commented is the prevalence of Indian blood in the cap ital, where one would naturally look president himself is an Indian of pure blood.
 California, Major Evans said, is i'll much worse shape than the rest of the world has been informed and even in much worse condition than a majority Of the persons most interested under stand. The drouth, damaging as it is in the southern part Of the state. is even more damaging in the middle part This is the second year of the scourge and no assurance can be given that there will not be a third one. A prominent San Francisco banker told Majcr Evans that the outlook was gloomy and at the best uncertain. Un- jess the ranchmen and country mer- chants in the stricken districts are carried over the year by banks and wholesale houses there will be wide spread disaster.
 Of the immediate future of Phoenix Major Evans said he was never so hopeful. He believes that the valley is on the edge of the most prosperous period in it's history.

sMoKLEss POWDER FACTORY
Work to be Begun on a Plant for tht
 Navy Near Washington.

Washington, Sept 26.-Work has been begun o1 the first large govern ment powder manufactory for the navy, about two miles from the naval proving station at Indian Head and within twenty-three miles of Washington. The new factory is being built under an ap- propriation of S97 eco secured last ses- sion, and when in operation will have greater capacity for smokeless pow der than any private concern in the country. With that at Newport, which delivers about 1000 pounds of powder day, the navy department should have within less than six months two factories capable of supplying practi- cally all the smokeless powder that il may require on peace basis.
 The construction work will be in charge of Lieutenant Bernadou, an ex- pert On the development of smokeless powder. He commanded the Winslow in her fight off Cardenas, where he was severely injured at the time Ensign Bagley was killed. Lieutenant Berna- dou will begin his work soon after the expiration of his sick leave this month and intends pushing the project so that it may be completed early next year. The plans call for 8 plant ca pablo of producing between three ard five thousand pounds of smOkeless powder a day, or about double the amounts now being furnished the navy by the Duponts and the California Powder works.

TIMES IN THE EAST.
Return of Mr. Sam Korrick From a1
 Extended Business Trip.

MT. Sam Korrick, proprietor of the New York store, returned on Sunday night from an extensive purchasing tour of the east, embracing St. Louis, Chicago, New York and the factory cities of New Jersey. He bought tha largest volume and assortment of merchandise he has ever imported into Phoenix. Business conditions in the east, MT. korrick says, are not such as he expected or wished to see. Times are not so good in mercantile circles as they were a year ago. Prices are somewhat higher, notwithstanding the demand is not so active. This un- usual relation between the sup ply and demand is the effect of the short production in almost all lines of manufacture, the result of a combine to hold down the production. Buyers are naturally waiting for turn in the course of events.
 During his stay in New York MT. korr;ck was pleased to meet many of the Rough Riders who seemed to have been given a mortgage on the town. Many were making good use of their privileges, while a few were not.
 When he went away Mir. KCrrick was not in good health. The trip and change of climate have done him good and he returns improved in appearance.

 is thoroughly American. Board the
 little bCb-tailed street car near the de-
 pot and a fiftsen minutes ride will
 bring you to the Old Town, where the majority of the Mexican population lives. Here is where Franz Tuning, 3 millionaire flour man, has his palatial homestead. The date 1873 is engraved on his big mill. Orchestrion hall, which contains a big machine orches- tra, is the principal attraction of Old Town. The street car company gives free concerts and dances every Satur- day night, and the Orchestrion is sim

 has stage and scenery, and is the only
 available place for theatrical attrac- l tions since the opera house burned down. Next week it will be used for fair exhibits
 New Mexico's annual fair is Albu- qCerQue's great event. The exhibits
 are usually very creditable, though the chief interest centers in the athletic contests, horse races, etc. Only two teams will contest in the base ball ] tournament this year-the Albuquer- que Browns and the Leadville Blues. They will play a series of five games.
 The players will scarcely be represel-
 tatives of the two towns when they
 line up, as several men from the i leagues have been specially engaged. That is the reason the neignboring towns of New Mexico and Arizona re- fused to longer participate in the tour naments. It got to be too much of a
 professional affair-and Albuquerque i always won.

NE WIS OF ALBUQUERQUE.
The Republicans Correspondent Writes of inc New Mexico Tour.

Albuquerque. Sept. 17.-(Special cor respondence of The Republican )-Al- buQuerGue, one ofthe largest and most
 importalt cities in the southwest,
 lies prettily environed in a fer
 tile and we'll watered section of the
 Rio Grande valley. Its tongue-twist- ing name was bequeathed to it by the duke of Albuquerque, who lived long time ago and was a pretty good sort of fellow. He left nothing else of value except political tendency, which has been industriously pursued by his de- scendants.
 Albuquerque has had it's boom days, has recovered and still has a fair chance of becoming one of the big cities of the extreme southwest. The pres
 ent population is anywhere from 5000 to 12,OO0, according to the veracity of your informant and the style of liter ature you get your figures from Any
 way, 1t is quite smart little city, con- i'taining handsome public buildings. business blocks and residences, betok- e1ing considerable wealth and wise in yestment in the earlier days. It is an important railroad center, and the nlagnates have their eyes continually on the place. This is evidenced by the
 friendly interest which D. B. Robin son, president of the St. Louis 6 San
 Francisco road, takes in the city His periodical cash contributions to the annual territorial fair and other en-
 terprises show desire to cultivate the
 good will of the people. The car shops i cover vast acreage and employ a
 great number of men. The removal of the heads of departments of the Santa Fe Pacific from here to Los An- geles did not lessen the towns impor- , tance in the railroad line, and the en- plOye is obliged to nurse his job just ,1as carefully as before. A position on the Santa Fe Pacific is not a sinecure
 nowadays. Last pay day many luck less heads dropped into the decapita-
 tion basket all along the line. for al
 legged misconduct. Men who were be- lieved by outsiders to be almost indis-
 pensable to the company, have been suddenly and unceremoniously re- lieved from service. An old engineer with an established reputation fer so-
 briety, walked into saloon and pur- chased a cigar. He had mo more job

 company is playing no favorites, and

ESTERHAZY'S INFAMIES.
He Vacillates Between Suicide and
 Making a Clean Breast of It.

London, Sept 26.-Public curiosity in England and France, which was greatly piqued by the promised revela- tions of Major Esterhazy in the Drey- fus case, is still unsatisfed. The Paris papers announced yesterday that Els terhazy had returned to Paris and had declared that he did not intend to make "a statement. This is false. A corre- spondent had long conversation with Esterhazy in England today.
 Scoundrel though the eX-offcer is, he retains some ideas Of honor. He is now vacillating between committing suicide and making a clean breast of his infamies. He has already made a full verbal confession to three responsible persons. but persistently delays putting it into writing and refuses to permit it's publication at present. The principal reason for this seems to be that his confession will not have sufficient po- lieical effect unless it is held until the chamber of deputies meets.
 Esterhazy's justification for all that ne has done in the Dreyfus case is in teTesting to moralists. It is embraced in his maxim: "A soldier should place his conscience as well as his sword at the disposal of his superior officers
 The Berlin cores pondent of the Pail Mall Gazette is assured by member of the secret intelligence department Of the German war office that neither he nor any Of his colleagues ever directly or indirectly communicated with Drey- fus or even heard of his name until his trial by court martial. The general belief of the Berlin military authorities, the correspondent says, is that Dreyfu9 succumbed to an anti-Seniiic conspir- acy, pure and simple.

The price of bar gold

South America The price of bar gold in London is 73s.
 These large engagements have again revived the talk of big gold move ment. but conservative bankers were unwilling to believe that the present purchase had any undue significance, although the opinion is general that gold will come in large volume before long.
 There were some pretty heavy bank balances on Saturday, but it couldn't be learned that they indicated anything unusual. It may be stated that no gold has been taken from the clearing house for the past three days. As the sub-treasury is making heavy disburse- ments at present it will undoubtedly be a large debtor at the clearing house for some days to come.
