Another fatal accident occurred at Jerome on Wednesday night, the vic tim being John Markey. an employee at the shelter. Markey was employed at one of the cOnverters. and an i'm mense pot of hot copper was being hOisted. when the bale broke, spilling the molten metal all over the un- fortunate man. In an instant he was covered with tine metal and his cloth ing was mass of flames. The cloth ing was all burned from his body be fore aid could get to him. He was re- moved at once to the hospital where he died in the most terrible agony a few hours later. Two other men were slightly burned by the splatter- ing of the hot copper.

PRESCOTT WILL ENTER THE
 RACE.

Ii has been decided 10 pick a team from the Prescott fire department to enter the hose race at Jerome on July 4. and accordingly one of the hose carts was shipped to that place today.

D. B. HILL FOR PRESIDENT
BOOM STARTED FOR THE SAGE OF
"wOLFERT's ROOST.v
James II. Mcclure Goes to Chicago
and Proposes "I am Demo-
cratv as n Candidate.

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.-The Chronicle will
say tomorrow: David Bennett Hill, ex-
Governor of New York and former United
States senator, is to be prominent can
didate for the presidency the Demo-
cratic ticket i'm 1904. A declaration that Is
equivalent to a personal announcement by
the New York man was made last night by
James K. Mcclure, Mr.. Hills political
lieutenant. mayor of Syracuse and chair
man of the executive committee of the
New York State organization. Mr.. Nc
Guire arrived in Chicago yesterday after
noon from the East He came on private
business exclusively and insisted that his
visit was absolutely devoid of any political
significance whatsoever. He is registered
at the Palmer House, where he was visited
by a number of the local party leaders but
whether the New Yorker mentioned the
Hill boom or not is unknown.
"Ts the Republican foreign policies, 20
far as the Philippines, Porto Rico and Cuba
are concerned, shall fail absolutely or in
part within the next four years. said Mr.
Mcclure, and the Democrats of the coln-
try want a man, able, safe, conservative
and eminently fitted for the task to solve
doubtedly be David Bennett Hill.
Ex-senator Hill is very much like
Grover Cleveland was politically said Mr..
Mcclure. Mr.. Hill is less strong than he
might be i'm the State organization, but
he is wonderfully strong in the Nation.
He is looked upon as a man absolutely
SAFE and is regarded as one or the ablest
statesmen in the Nation. Should the Re-
publican policy OF colonization prove a
failure. and the Nation four years hence
require a conservative, clear-headed, able
man whose Democracy never has been ques-
toned, then the choice of the next Demo-
cratic national convention will be Mr.. HILL
II the radical element OF the party develops
strength enough to again get into the sad
die, then the nominee will be William
Jennings Bryan, or some other man, but
not Mr.. Hill. This present talk of reor-
ganization is idle at the present time. The
moment has not arrived to talk of reor-
ganization. Reorganization OF the party
il it is necessary in 1904. depends entirely
upon contingencies. and the trend or events
between now and the next national con-
vention will point out what is necessary" Z"

MUST SERVE HIS TERM
CAPT. O. VI. CARTER REMANDED TO
THE FEDERAL PENITENTIARY.
Ruling Of the Trial Court and Presi-
dent MckinIey's Action Upheld
by Two Federal Judges.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 10.-In decision handed
down by Judge Hook, of the Federal Dis
trict Court of Kansas, and concurred in by
United States Circuit Judge Amos Thayer.
this afternoon, Oberlin NJ. Carter, former
captain L. S. A, under sentence of five
years Imprisonment for misappropriation
OF government funds while in charge of the
harbor work OF Savannah, is remanded to
the custody of the warden OF the Federal
Penitentiary at Leavenworth, where Carter
has been confined, the court overruling
the petitioner demurrer on the habeas
corpus writ, issued some time ago, and sus-
tanning the ruling of the trial courts, to-
gether with the subsequent action of Presi-
dent Mckinley. who set aside twelve of the
charges under which he was convicted, but
made no change of the sentence imposed
by the court-martial. In addition TO the
prison sentence Carter was fined $1,000,
which was paid, and he was dismissed from
the army. Judges Thayer and Hook find
these proceedings were entirely regular.
One of the chief contentious urged in
Carter's behalf was that the President. in
reducing the number OF specifications pre-
ferred. thereby made void the punishment
inflicted On this point Judge Thayer says:
THE punishment prescribed by the Articles
of War is attached TO the charge and not
the specifications made Hereunder, the lat
ter being merely by way of exempIification
and detailed statement OF the principal
charge to which they respectively relate,
but even IL this were not so, the rule is
well established that where sentence in
gross Is pronounced on 4 conviction under
indictment containing several counts
and on appeal or review some OF them are
held bad and the others are sustained, the
sentence will not be disturbed, provided
il is such as could lawfully have been i'm
posed under the counts which were up
held"
Captain Carter entered prison in April
last. With one year off for good behavior
he still has little more than three years
10 serve. His application for a writ of
habeas corpus was filed at Leavenworth.
Oct. Il and was heard there on Nov. g.
Judges Thayer and Hook both sitting on
the case. Frank p Blair. OF Chicago. and
Congressman Grosvenor, of Ohio. appeared
for Carter. Carter was permitted TO an
pear in court in citizens clothes and IL was
the first time he had left the prison walls
since his incarceration.

LONDON, Dec. 12.-Gen. Lord Kitchener
is attempting to end the in South
Africa, and with that end in view the has
determined to capture or destroy General
De Vets army of Beers. For more than
a week General Knox and three columns Of
British cavalry have been chasing the
Boer leader and endeavoring to corner
him. but up till to-day he is said to have
cluded his pursuers, though closely
pressed at times. In order to cover the
ground more quickly the British cavalry
threw away all baggage and supplies and
depended on foraging off the country
through which the troops passed. Last
week De Wet was so hard pressed he was
forced TO abandon 800 horses and much of
his supply train.
The London Evening Standard, which has
special sources OF information, says this
evening that great battle between the
British forces under General Knox and
the Beers under De Wet is going on. No
details have been received, but it is be-
lieyed that if a battle is going on as re-
ported De Wet is at bay and will resist
capture to the utmost.

Gossip About the Return of His Letter
by Won Waldersee.

BERLIN, Dec. 10.-The German govern
ment has not taken official notice of Gen.
eral Chaffee's letter TO Count Won Walder-
see complaining OF the removal of the
astronomical instruments from the wall of
Peking and the return of the letter to the
American commander ION account of its
tone Only few of the papers print the
incident in their news columns. The Vos-
sische Zeitung remarks: Whatever the
cause, General Chaffee had in no case
a right to use such rough language in a
letter TO the commander-in-chief''
The Berliner Tageblatt observes: 1--WE
must. of course. reserve a definite judg-
ment until reliable German reports have
been received. Whoever knows, however,
of the generally acknowledged diplomatic
tact of Count Won Waldersee will not
doubt that he would not have employed
such brusque procedure without the
strongest kind of provocation."
Captain Dannhauser, who is with Count
Won Waldersee. says in private dispatch
received in Berlin to-day: THE French
have abandoned their operations to remove
astronomical instruments from the walls
of Peking, presumably in order to impress
the Chinese with their comparative Glenn
ency; but the Germans continue removing
instruments under the protection of a COM
p&ny of engineers

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-General Chaffee
acted entirely within his rights in prevent
City apd Peking, through the gate guarded
by American troops. Although this gov
ernmept accepted Count Waldersee as the
commander of the allied forces, 1t was
with the understanding that General Chat
fee was TO remain in supreme command
OF the American troops when in camp, and
maintain his force as a separate organiza-
ton, so it could act independently at any
time and withdraw from the so-called al
lince whenever directed by this govern
ment. In short, General Chaffee was TO
recognize Waldersee the allied COM
mander only when combined operations
were to be taken by the allied forces, and
even then his instructions were that the
American troops were to maintain their in
dependent organization and be under
American command. General Chaffee.
therefore, has perfect right TO issue the
order against looting that is complained
of. and as many similar orders cir
cumstances may demand. He was right
in his protest against the Noting of as
Economical instruments from the Peking
Observatory, at which Waldersee also took
offense. AS he acted within his instruc-
tions. and In accordance with the usages
or civilized warfare, he will be supported
by his government if any complaint be
made from any sources to which IL will be
proper to give attention..

were employed, and a dragnet search OF
the city was promptly started. Everyone
accused Of having had hand in the murder
of the American and English missionaries
was dragged before this court and given
more or less-generally less-thorough trial
Then the convicted ones were taken out
and hurriedly executed.
This was Christian violation OF prom
ise made to the heather. The people OF
Pao-Ting-Fu are cowed by the soldiers, but
there is no word that will adequately ex-
press their bitterness. The Germans. Of
course, are smarting with the desire TO
avenge Won Ketteler. and they are seldom
blamed by the allies for any severity they
use against the Chinese.
But there was one incident connected
with the Pao-Ting-Fu executions that has
aroused the greatest regret. The provincial
treasurer was one of the best friends the
foreigners had. He strove in every way
to protect them. Yet he was tried by the
military court and killed. The Chinese are
asking: IF you kill even your friends. what
is the use of befriending you?"
And so Pao-Ting-Fu, which is one Of the
centers of thought and patriotism in the
empire, will have to be reckoned with If
war against the world breaks out again
this winter, as it is certain TO do. Such
things as have happened at this old-time
capital will mean many regiments more Of
troops for the imperial dragon standard
