Wilson to Be Worked

The following political excerpts
are taken from the Prescott Courier,
the above heading being ours:
"The Arizona Gazette is doing
some very sly, and at the same time,
some very hard work TO have Mark
Smith nominated for delegate to
succeed Col. Wilson. If any Yava-
pal democrat allows the Gazette to
pull the wool over his eyes, the
Courier Is badly fooled"

Interest Awakened About Arizona

a Washington telegram SAYS that
there is a decided impression there
that Arizona's chances o! secur
ng statehood are improving. Gov
erner Murphy during bis stay
created much favorable sentiment,
and other Arizonans have done a
great deal to convince congressman
that the territory is entitled to ad-
mission. The governors report, is
sued there a few days ago, is COM
mented upon in the most favorable
terms by men who ordinarily do not
take the trouble to examine such
publications. The illustrations are
regarded as far above the ordinary,
and much surprise is expressed at
the character of the buildings
shown, and the beauty OF the pas
toral scenes. The recent visit to
Arizona of Senators Shoup and
Clark, Binger Hermann and General
Ainsworth has helped the statehood
movement. These prominent men
have not ceased talking of their
pleasant experiences in the territory
and their statements carry great
weight in circles where Arizona
must look for aid.

from Gibraltar. Some time ago q con-
sumptive German gentleman arrived

entail people in England. The COVER
nor and other officials received him
hospitality and every consideration
possible was shown him on account OF
his health. but, of course, he could not
be granted permission. as he request
ed, to go to the top OF the rock for
the sake of the purer air, as there is
a regulation that foreigners" are on
no account to be permitted to walk
about the top OF the rock Further
acquaintance. however, with the Ger
man gentleman, through the medium
of dinners and other social functions,
resulted in a relaxation of the strict
rule, and he was granted a pass. The
result of the visit is. now TO be seen
at the German war office, which Is In
possession Of the most perfect plans

fenses Of Gibraltar.-Saturday Review.

TO SOMEONE'S NEGLIGENCE.
ENGINEER SAID To HAVE DISREA
GARDED DANGER SIGNAL.

Philadelphia. Sept. At seems TO be
the generally accepted conclusion thar
the wreck Sunday on the Philadelphia
q Reading railroad, twenty seven miles
from this city, AT Hatfield, which re-
suited in the loss of thirteen lives and
more or less seriously injuring many
passengers. wasd ue TO negligence or
disregard of signals. While the Reah-
ing Company will not be prepared 10
make any formal statement until To-
morrow, the principal line of investiga-
ton is being drawn about w. ;. Groves
the train dispatcher at Philadelphia;
ID. B. Beidler, the operator at Soude-
ron. two and half miles from Hatheld,
and John Davis, engineer of the col
lding excursion train. who is dying In
a hospital at Bethlehem.
According to James Benner, fagman
at Souderton station the milk train
passed that station on time and foi-
lowed the rule OF the company, which
requires any train coming after an
other within five minutes to be stop
ped. he placed II red flag between the
tracks In three minutes the train
came laundering along with Davis at
the throttle and the train making forty
miles an hour Davis made no effort 10
stop and waved Benner To one side
The latter had only time 10 secure his
flag and spring out of danger as the
train swept by Looking upward he
saw that Beidler had clear signal set
Beidler when questioned said he had
received no orders Ia stop the train.
This would seem 90 conflict with a
statement made by General Supt- Swei-
CERT that all agents must stop train,
orders or no orders. if there is tive min
utes' time or less between them.
Mr.. Sweigert also indicated that
Train Dispatcher Groves made some
effort TO bold the train up before it

Reports from Bethlehem and Allen

although several are not expected 10
live. The railroad company had a force
of men at the scene of the wreck early
yesterday, clearing away the debris.
The wrecked cars were burned and all
evidence of the accident was destroyed
as far as possible.

said the excursion train was scheduled
TO arrive at Hatfield nj $50 a m, and
that the milk train arrived ut 6:.l5. The
excursion train, he says, WAS a minute
ahead of time 1t was very fogGy and
he was stamping tickets when he heard
the excursion train coming. He first
saw IL when. ii was about 100 yards
