favorable to Wilson. The northern counties, with Yavapai, will be solid for Wilson, with the exception perhaps of Coconino. Pinal county, which was supposed to lean to Smith, has chosen Wilson delegation, and it is not re. garded as probable that any of the southern counties will send delegations to the convention instructed for Smith. The hardest fight is in Maricopa coun- ty, and letter received from Phoenix this morning states that Wilson's chances of carrying the county are good In this county sentiment is strongly in favor of Col. Wilson, as the democratic voters generally recognize that he has worked faithfully and in- telligently for Arizona, and IS entitled to the endorsement of his party.

The movement to place so- called independent labor ticket in the field Tn this county has fallen flat, and the attempt has been abandoned result that was forseen from the first. There was never any occasion for it, except in the minds of few discontented men wanting office, and who attempted to use the Miners Union to attain their own selfish ends The union is con trolled by sensible and conservative men who will not permit it to be swerved from the legitimate purposes for which it was organized. There is no evidence of desire, in this county, to deny to labor recognition in politi- cal affairs, and the democratic party stands ready to accord to the miners such representation as they are entitled to. and as the party has always done heretofore.

oMDURMAN AND THE KHALIFA.
How the Monarch Died Fighting at
the Head of His Emirs.

Our infantry fixed bayonets and opened
with volleys at 400 yards. The twelve
Founders and Maxims were hard at II;
but in spite of this continuous Are, on
came the khalifa at the head OF Ms men.
Though firing necessarily their aim was
fortunately high, and the bullets whistled
for the most part harmlessly over our
heads. Nothing could live within the zone
of our concentrated fire, yet some among
them actually charged to within $50 yaros
OF us. and died facing their enemies.
In this charge the khalifa and most Of
the emrs met their DEATH while at the
same time the Ninth Soudanese. together
with two Maxims and dsmounted party
of the camel corps, were repeiling an at
tack on our left flank which had develop
ed some strength. Discipline and steady
volleys had decided the fate OF the day.
and lighting came to an end at a. m.
II had been hot while It lasted, but our
casualty list was a trifng one, owing
chiefly to our good position well in rear
of tho crest of open rising ground.
Adult a couple OF hundred dervishes lay
dead around us, and their wounded must
have numbered over 500 Meanwhile the
remainder. having heard of the khalifa's
death, gave up the fight and retired to
their women In the camp.
Seeing that no further resistance was
being offered. but not yet aware of the
fall OF the khalifa, we advanced with
every precaution. We we're met by a
deputation of the enemy. who, throwing
down their rifles, asked for quarter for
the whole force, and this was of course
readily granted. From them we heard
of the khalifas death. and his body was
soon identified and placed under a guard
One of the wounded emirs lying by his
side told me that early in the engage
ment the khalifa was grazed by a bullet
in the hand, but so determined was he to
carry out the attack that he concealed
his wound by drawing his sleeve over it
to prevent his followers being discourag ed
He went forward into the thick of tho
fight where he fell, struck by the spMnt-
er of shrapnel in the mouth and by a
rife bullet In the head.--National Review

Consolidated Railway Company's
Large Disbursements.
NEW EQUIPMENT ORDERED.
on Their Way Here From the
East-work soon to BE started on
100000 Central station on Post
street-Power Capacity of system
II Being Materially Increased.

Expenditures on account OF labor and for
materials used in the reconstruction OF the
various lines embraced in the consolidated
street railway system are being made by
the Seattle Electric company at the rate
of upward of $4,000 per month According
to statements made yesterday by officials
of the company, this Is but the beginning
OF operations which will result in the dis
bursement Of approximately 100000 in
Seattle during the next two years.
Work on several OF the lines which are
to be rebuilt is now well under way. and
by March / II is expected that ground win
be broken for the new steam heat and
power station which viii be located on
Post street, where the present power plant
is situated
Slowly plans for the radical improve
ment of the entire railway system are be-
ing matured. II has been decided to re-
build the Third Avenue & Suburban road
and TO equip that line. as well as the Bal
lard and the Traction Company divisions,
with large double-trucked open cars for
use during the summer. Eight OF these
have already been purchased by the COM
pany and have been shipped from the East
to Seattle. They VIII be here in ample
time for use during the coming summer
Mention of these contemplated improve
ments has been made from time to time in
the observation-disclosures. A recent order
placed with large car manufacturing con-
Germs IN the East indicates that the new
management of the roads has determined
on policy which has been made possible
. by the reorganization and consolidation of
the six lines. and which will result in
greatly increased summer traffic to SUBJ
urban points. beginning with the coming
season.
Preparing for Heavy Tramc.
Officials of the Seattle Electric Com
pany, which is now operating four of the
tpAa tt,rrA
believe that there will be demand for
greater equipment for Sunday travel to
the suburbs of Seattle during the next
summer than ever before in the city's his
tory. 1t seems to be the policy of the
company. judging by recent events, to
provide ample means for this business.
and to encourage its growth. Heretofore
the bulk of the travel on Sundays has
been confined to the Madison street road,
the Grant street line and the Third ave-
nue. system. The Madison street road has
however. handled the biggest share of the
Sunday traffic.
1t 10 now proposed TO equip the Traction
Company's Green Lake line. the Third
street road and the Ballard line with
heavy double-trucked cars. with wide ves-
tibules and comfortable seats for the sub
urban and Sunday travel. These cars will
be equal to the best ever made in the
country, II is said. They will be modern
in every particular. and will be equipped
with electric motors with a combined ca
pactty per car OF 100 horse power
In addition fourteen new cars have been
