behind him en- the car sat a skilled

A BISBEE KILLING.
Joseph Deiro Shoots jose Garcia With
Fatal Effect.

At Bisbee yesterday Joseph Garcia
was shot and killed almost instantly
about 3 o'clock by Joseph Deiro. The
shooting took place almost in front of
the Orb office on o K street.
The Orb says that Deiro is keeping a
saloon en- o K street and is his own
bartender, his wife assisting him when
necessary. His wife, with two CHI
dren, aged respectively five and three
years, were in the saloon with him
during the evening and until he con-
Guided to close up, then unusually late
for him to close his place of business.
Upon attempting to lock the front door
he found that the key was missing
and could not be found. He lives near
'tISs opera house and concluded to c.ose
thed door of the saloon and see his wife
and children safely on the way home,
then return and spend the balance of
the night in his saloon. This cOnclu-
sion he acted upon and accompanied
his family to Brewery gulch and i'll
sight of home. He then returned to
the saloon, and just as he opened the
saloon door a man rushed out of the
place and passed him, running north
UP K street. Deiro carried a Al cal
ibre six-shooter which he drew and
called upon the fleeing man to stop.
The man kept running and Deir0 fired
ar him almost at once. He fired three
shots before the man had gotten thirty
yards distant After the third shot the
man ran a few steps and fell. Deiro
then closed his saloon door and start
ed 1omeward, meeting Ed A Wittig
and A. Champagne on the way. To
them he stated that ne had shot a man.

How Archbishop Irelandis Friends

A good story is told on several prom

Archbishop Ireland OF Minnesota. The
archbishop, when abroad, IVES accom-

OGo-man of South Dakota. When
they were about to return the urch-
bishop went to Ireland for a shoI.

passage on the Majestic, but through
some inadvertence he sailed under the
name of Archbishop IreI3nd, and it
was cabled to this country that the
archbishop waS returning on the. Ma

c. KerenS member Of the republican
national committee from Missouri, and
a number of other prominent New
York men who are warm friends OF
Archbishop Iceland. These gentlemen
chartered a little steamer, went down
the bay to meet the Majestic, and as
they ranged alongside clamored VigOr-
Cusly fer Archbishop Ireland, demand

aboard. They were very much cha

Mr.. Hoar.. Excitement Continues.

Mr., Hoar regards the McEnery resolution
as Infamous" That view simply shows
how excited Mr. HOar is capable of becom-
ing on the subject of the Philippine Islands.
The resolution declares that the Islands are
not to become an integral part of the Amer
lean Union. Nobody had proposed anything
TO the contrary or seriously had feared
such a thing. The second declaration Is
that the United States shall establish good
government for the islands. That follows
as the result of American control. The
third declaration is that when good govern
rnent shall have been established further
steps shall be in accordance with the in
terests Of the United States and those of
the people of the islands. How can any
American reasonably object to that?
The McEnery resolution fits the case well
enough IL anything at all should be said.
But why make any declaration at all at
this time? The country's policy respecting
new possessions is clearly enough defined.
Arizona and New Mexico after fifty years
are not yet states. Great pressure has re-
peatedly been brought to have them admit
ted to the Union, but so strict are the re-
quirements that both are still without the
pale Alaska. after thirty years, is not
STATE. II will probably never be made
state. Why all Of this pother, then, on the
subject Of the danger to be apprehended on
this score from the Philippine Islands?
II AIR. Hoar would be entirely logical and
frank he should Introduce a resolution pro-
posing the immediate recall of Dewey and
Otis and the abandonment by the United
States Of all rights of whatever description
III the Philippines. Make present of the
twenty million dollars to Aguinaldo and his
followers. turn over Spaln's cession to
them. and with a parting salute bid them
godspeed- Let him try the temper of Con-
gress on something like that. Less than
that will not express his real attitude. If
We are to take hold at all it will be for
good purpose, and once we do take hold we
shall not be able to let go. except upon
terms of honor and creGit to the country.
The McEnery resolution seems open to
the objection of being superfiuous. and, in
times of so much difficulty. liable to mis-
construction abroad, but it takes a heated
temperament to pronounce it Infamous"
