tion conference on the uses and abuses
OF trusts and combinations with repre-
sentative men from nearly every state

tonight and tomorrow, having found it
impossible to attend the opening ses-

DEspERADoEs AT LARGE.
Sheep Camp Looted Within Few Miles of
the City and No Effort Made TO Cap
ture the Looters.

Last Saturday three men on horse
back visited the sheep camp Of Serapio
Romero near Pagosa, few miles east
of the city. and meeting the major
domo. or man IN charge, asked for
something to eat. They were accorded
the customary hospitality of the plains
by the majordomo who directed them
to the sheep camp, not far away.
On reaching the sheep camp they
helped themselves to not only their
breakfast but carried off all the
provisions in the camp except
a package Of coffee and also
a. riff, aud ammunition and left.
From the description OF the men, one
Is supposed to be Por6rio Trujillo: an
other is supposed to be an American
and the other Mexican.
A few days prior to this, three men,
doubtless the same gang, called at the
store of Richard Gomez at Trementina
and knocked at the door. When Gomez
went TO the door a gun was pointed at
his head and he and his companion
were compelled at the point of gun to
quietly allow the trio to help them.
selves to the contents of the store.
THE OPTIC hasn't heard of any effort
having been made by the county officers
to run them down or even out of the
country, Notwithstanding that the trio
are supposed to be operating in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the city.

Using Too Much Water.

To tell the truth the Man With the
Calculating Eye has become rather un-
duly elated on the score of his easily
gained victories over both the Doubling
Thomas and the Cheerful Liar, and it
was in the natural order of things that
he should have some of the coDceit
taken out of him. The Good Old Book
truly says that pride goeth before q
fall" So it was with the Man With a
Calculating Eye and the Cheerful idiot
was the cause of it ALL
The Cheerful idiot looks to be a very
respectable person. intelligent and with
a beaming, innocent smile. He ran
across the Man, etc., on the street cor
ner last night and was full of the sub
ject.
SAY said he, as he took a cigarette
from his mouth and blew the smoke in
the others face, "what are you making
such jolly row about parks, street
sprinkling. and so on, for?"
"Why shouldn't make a row about
them p said the Man With Calculat-
ingEye. Amt they needed bad enough ?
Now, answer me that" .
"Well, / don't know said Che Cheer
full Idiot. ut seems to me that people
are just going crazy. l say, let every
man sprinkle his own door yard. 1
remember the time when my father
bought lot of garden hose and set me
to work damIening the road in front of
our house. That's what say let tt 9
people of Las Vegas do. That's my
platform. If there isn't enough press
ure to squirt the water, why they can
take sprinkling can and do a good job
that way. Then there's the parks.

anyhow, 1 tell you right now the peo-

it, and II they didn't waste so much for

The Man With Calculating Eye was
completely knocked out lie had only
strength enough to move further on up
the street and lean against fence for

PARIS, Sept. 13.-Madame Dreyfus
fears her husbands health may soon
break down completely. Dreyfus
nerved himself up during the Rennes
trial but the reaction is such that his
physicians consider his case hopeless

The shooting affair that occurred at
Nsco late Saturdy afternoon resulted in
the death of one American cowboy and
a Mexican guard, the wounding Of sew
eral Others aud ultimately in delivering
over to the Mexican authorities four
American citizens, who will be tried
for murder.
Several months aLO James Heron
was arrested 10y the Mexican line riders.
charged with smuggling horses, and
Was being taken to N0gales for hearing.
While at Naco, Bob Clayton, friend
of Herron's, s,asked permission to accom-
Iany him to NogsIes. The Mexican
officers consented, but at the zane time
notified Clayton that he would have TO
disaTm himself, and giving him thirty
minutes to do so.
When the time was up the guards
started toward Clayton, who pulled his
guns and commenced shooting, at the
same time backing toward this side of
the line. The guards, seven in number,
returned the fire, while two other cow
boys, Franco, and another, name un-
known, went to Clayton's rescue. Clay
ton escaped to this side, but not with
out bullet through his body, from the
effects of which he died at Bisbee Sun
day niPht.
Captain Molina of the Mexican guards
was shot twice, once through the right
thigh and through the arm, neither of
which is serious. Franco was arrested
by the guards and placed In Jail while
the rest of the cowboys escaped.
An hour and half later three guards
who started with Heron to NOgales.
were overtaken by party Of four
American cowboys, friends of Her
ron's, who were bent on rescuing him.
A lively fight ensued, resulting in the
killing of a guard named Pedrogan.
Manuel Rivera was wounded to such
an extent that death Is expected hourly.
The third guard escaped to the custom
house, secured aid and drove the cow
boys across to this side of the line.
Heron refused to come back with his
rescuers, but continued on to Nogales,
where he gave himself up, choosing
rather to face the charge of smuggling
than to risk being taken by officers at
Bisbee who hold warrant for him, he
having escaped from the penitentiary
in Oklahoma, after beng sentenced to
twenty-five years for murder.

THE TARTAR HELD.
Gets AS Far AS Hong Hong With
the Kansas Regiment.

HONG KONG, September 13.-The
United States transport Tartar, which
expected to sail today, has been de-
tanned by the harbor authorities under
the British merchant shipping act
whereby her capacity is limited to 750
passengers, although the Tartar has
been licensed to a capacity OF 1,340.
Consul Wildman, representing the
United States government, TOOK the
matter at once before the local govern
ment authorities, maintaining that the
Tartar is an American troop ship, al
though she is flying the British dag,and
is not subject to the merch mt shipping
act. 1t is probable that 450 soldiers on
board will be left behind when she is
finally permitted to sail for San Fran
cisco. Several discharged soldiers on
board the Tartar filed complaints of
her unsanitary condition, which started
the proceedings to detain the vessel.
Washington, Sept. 13.-Secretary
Root has decided to take up the mat
ter of the Tartar with the state de-
partment with view of having the
ship cleared at Hong Kong. The de-
partment made public the following
dispatch: Hong Kong, Sept. 13.-
The British authorities refuse to clear
the Tartar because she is overcrowd-
ed; they authorize S24. (Signed)
Metcalf, Colonel Twentieth Kansas.
The Tartar is owned by the Cana
dian Pacific Steamship company. She
sails under the British flag. 1t is
said under these conditions she is
subject to the British navigation
laws. The Twentieth Kansas volun-
teers with General Funston are
aboard but it is believed the volun-
teers made no complaint and are anx-
ious to have a clearance granted the
ship in order that they may proceed
homeward A private cablegram
says the complaint of overcrowding
was made by discharged regulars.
The Tartar was carrying 1,201 SOL
diers.

for their support and are in a position to
keep up the fight indefinitely.
