THE COBRE GRAND
A Contest in This City for Suprem-
sCy Today.

Two meetings, or rather two meet
ings in one. of the stockholders of the
Cobre Grande company will be held in
this city today. There will be the end
OF a bitter contest for supremacy
which has been going on here for sew
eral days, President Costello and Sec
rotary Wood of the company on one
side, and W. c. Greene. George Mitch
ell and Scott White, secretary of the
company by virtue of the Bisbee meet
ing, are all on the ground. Both sides
have been busily engaged in trying TO
secure the stock ahoat in this city for
tOday's voting. The Greene Mitchell
people offer as an inducement TO eX-
change stock in the new organization
the Cananea company for it at the
rate of two for one. The Costello peo-
pie have no special inducement to offer
but they adjure the stockholders to
stay with the old company and things
will turn out all right.
Most of the stockholders are puzzled
by the present contest. They are I'M
able to understand why the Greene
people want to control the Cobre
Grande and what good the control of
it viii do the Costello faction, since a
new company formed by the Greene
folks are in possession of the property
under a Mexican Incorporation.

ROUGH RIDER RHODES
Will Be on Hand at the Carnival
Contests.

Sergeant Rhodes, who served with
Troop a in the Rough Rider regiment
under Captain O'Nein during the
Spanish war, is in the city and will
remain till after the carnival.
Sergeant Rhodes is a sure enough
Rough Rider, having for years
busted" bronchos and punched cattle
on the Arizona ranges, and his COM
rades in arms give him a good war
record, asserting that he was one Of
the best men in the troop. He is over
six feet high. weighs about 100 pounds
and not an ounce of it is surplus flesh.
He is now engaged in stock raising in
Tonic Basin and brought down a herd
Of 800 head of cattle to market. The
drive was a remarkable one, as he
crossed the river in the upper country
and brought his cattle to the valley
over the famous Ash Greek trail in the
Superstition mountains which, at one
place, crosses d rocky cliff LOCO feet
high and as nearly perpendicular as a
trail could be. He lost several head of
cattle in the rocks, an occurrence not
entirely unexpected.
Sergeant Rhodes is considered by the
cattlemen to be an expert with the
rope and though he still suffers from
expects to be able to take part in the
roping contests during carnival week,
and perhaps carry off prize or two.

kETCHUNf CAN'T CONE
Governor OierO VIII Not Surrender
lie Suspected ffurderer.

Deputy Sheriff 4 A Johns of Yav-
apai county came in from the north
yesterday on a freight TO assist in es-
corting a quartette Of convicts TO
Yuma who had been brought in the
night before. Mr.. Johns said that
Sheriff Munds had returned the night
before from Santa Fe, whittier he took
a requisition for the return of Tom
Ketchum. the supposed Camp Verdi
murderer. Governor Otero surprised
him by refusing to honor it. Word had
been received from the authorities OF
the county in which Ketchum was
awaiting trial for train robbery. that
they were willing TO give him up to
the Arizona authorities for the rea-
son that it seemed impossible TO get 4
jury at Santa Fe, willing to infiict \
proper punishment on criminals On
this information application was made
to Governor Murphy last Wednesday
for a requisition, which was granted.
1t tTanspires that Governor Otero
was not taken into account in this ne
gotiation. His objection to giving up
Ketchum was doubtless based on the
fact that it would be an admission of
the weakness Of the territorial system
OF justice.

a COne.ON FOR INDIANS
Mr. jenkins was Worked by Unsu-
tOTed SavageS.

Several days ago \. r. Jenkins, a
farmer living not far from Phoenix
bought six cattle from a couple of In
dams. 1t was not a wise thing to do.
for the reason that the Indians had 10
written authority from the Sacaton
agent to sell the cattle. Perhaps Mr.
Jenkins did not know that such for
mality was necessary and perhaps ne
kenw about it but dazzled by the bar
gain, forgot. Two or three days later
another contingent of Indians came
along and claimed four of the cattle.
They had witnesses, other Indians, 10
prove that the cattle belonged to them.
Mr.. Jenkins saw he was in for it, gave
up the four cattle and was thankful
that the Indians had not claimed the
other two. He couldn't help suspect
ing though. that he had been made a
come-on by a gang of uncultured saw
ages. His suspicious were strength
ened by old settlers who told him that
was an ancient Pima and Maricopa
trick.
Now he knows he was jobbed. He
came to town yesterday and consulted
that he had been engaged in d transac-
ton lately and came out of it dis
figured. She told him the rest. She
said he was the victim of Indian con-
spiracy; that he had bought six cate
Of a couple of Indians and that other
Indians claimed them on the ground
that they had been stolen. She sad
that they were not stolen but belonged
10 all the Indians engaged in the plot.
She said that one Of the Indians Of
diminutive size was hiding in u place
where there were many little hills
All this is as Mr.. Jenkins thought, but
he did not know to a dead certainty
until the fortune teller told him. He
can go now and put his hand on the
little Indian who is in his wickiup
on the lower reservation. All this in
formation is very satisfying to Mr..

BRACE or BURGLARS
They Were Caught Leaving House
Last Night.

Two burglars We're caught in the
act last night. On Saturday night the
residence OF c. a. Cole near the water
works was broken into. The family
was absent and all the household goods
We're boxed ready to move. What the
burglars got is not known, but the next
morning two men were canvassing the
block trying to sell jewelry. Yesterday
evening two men were seen suspicious
ly hanging around the Cole house. \
telephone message was sent from the
water works to the sheriffs Office.
Sheriff Murray and Deputy Charles
Standard went out. BY the time they
arrived the men were in the house.
The officers approached from different
sides and when they got near the door
the burglars broke out. The deputy
sheriff grabbed one of them but the
other eluded the sheriff and was about
to make his escape when he was
brought to a standstill by a revolver
shot. When they We're locked up one
gave the name of John Bowen and the
other Joseph Clark. Bowen said he
was an honest man and served fifteen
years in the army.
Yes, in the Salvation Army" said
Clark with sarcasm. Both had small
bundles containing regular hobo kits.
In a general way they answer a de-
scription of the men who were trying
to unload jewelry in the block.
They had entered the Cole house by
unlocking the rear door. Though they
had not had a long time to work all
the boxes We're broken open and their
contents We're scattered about the
floor.

Jenkins. seeing it confirms his suspic-
ion but he is unable to see how ne can
turn it to profitable account The
courts would not likely accept the for
tune teller's story as proof OF the con-
spiracy.
Mr. Jenkins is of the opinion that
much of the cussedness of Indians is
not acquired by their association with
whites, and that the gold brick swindle
is not a product of civilization but is
spontaneous in the human race, with
out regard to age or color.

a DISTRESSING RUMOR
Report of the Killing of Richard
Bonneh at Prescott

a distressing rumor, which is rather
more than a rumor, reached here last
night, that Richard Bennett had been
shot and killed at Prescott by an un-
known man. A telegram from ]. H.
Robinson conveying this information
was sent to United States Attorney
Morrison at Prescott, presumably with
the purpose of catching him on the
train. The message was telephoned to
Mr.. Morrison at the Hotel Adams. but
did not reach him until after midnight
1t was then too late to communicate
with Prescott. Richard Bennett is a
son of Mr.. Guy Bennett and a younger
brother of Assistant United States At
torney Thomas D. Bennett He has for
some time been living upon and super
intending a ranch of his fathers about
forty miles from Prescott.
Notwithstanding the rumor is so
well connected, though received in Il
roundabout way, there is a hope that
it may be disproved this morning.
This hope is reasonably based on the
circumstance that Mr.. Benefits rela-
tives here would have been first in
formed of the tragedy if it had oc-
CURED.
