not only all the enemies ships. but the forts as well, were apparently center ing their fire on the Brooklyn, and that the next five minutes was the most serious in the combat. He told how jets of water shot up on every side of the Brooklyn. 'The roar of our pro- 5ectiles,'' he said, was such as can only. be heard once. and once heard. can never be forgotten. None of the Spaniards at this point showed injury. and the thought passed through my mind that they might get away. I had no thought at that time of battle ships as effective in a chase. I said to Cook: We will stay with this crew.''
 Graphically describing the coming of the Oregon. the admiral said he never before realized that such rapid fire was possible as was emitted from the two vessels. Both looked to him like sheets of flame. When the first Span iard went ashore the admiral said he told Cook to notify the crew. of what was happening. The captain obeyed. and the message was received with cheers. As the battle proceeded, he said he was anxious about the range. and asked Ellis, who was an expert with the stadimeter, to give the range. Here the witness stopped to pay a tribute to Ellis. His voice was lowered as he spoke gently of the magnificent performance of duty. of the dead yeo- man and the shocking sight of his death. He told how he stopped the of- ficers from throwing the body over board.
 Continuing the story of the battle proper. the admiral described how the Viscaya had turned toward the Brook lyn just before she went ashore As she turned, he distinctly saw the eff feet of shell which entered her bow. whereupon she wheeled back and head ed back for the shore. As she did so he saw her raked fore and aft by big shell. Speaking of the effect of the Spanish fire on the Brooklyn, he said it was so heavy that she lost all her rigging. it being cut away From this point the admiral told of the chase of the Colon. covering in detail all the ground gone over by the other wit nesses, but with more attention to every phase of the subject. After the adjournment the admiral was met out side the building by crowd that gave him a great ovation. and escorted him outside the navy yard. The court ad- journed until Monday.
 When the court of inquiry adjourned. Schley had not completed his testi- mony. He took the stand at 11:30 and continued his statement until the court adjourned at 3:40. The day was a mo- table one in court. The largest crowd yet attending any of the sessions. was present. and deep interest was mani fested throughout in the proceedings. Long before the beginning of the morn ing session all the seats reserved for visitors in the court room were occu- pied and the space in the rear of the seats was covered with men and wom- en standing

BUCKEYE ALL RIGHT
Dam Repairs-Water is Plenty and
 Prospects arc Bright.

J. Ernest Walker and J. C. Wasson have returned from their annual in spection of the Buckeye canal system and the lands lying under it. They find that the canal is now carrying 4,175 inches of water, which is ac- counted ample for 12.OO0 acres of land. and as only 5000 acres are now under cultivation 1t is easy to see that the Buckeye farmers are not uneasy about the water question.
 That region has fully recovered from the little setback 1t received in Sep tember, when a portion of the brush dam was taken out by flood water. making the supply in the canal short for about three weeks. The farmers under the canal are all prosperous and the prospects for pasture and beef were never better.
 Messrs. Walker and Wasson have un- bounded faith in the Buckeye country and intend at once to bring vastly larger acerage of their holdings under cultivtion. Mir Walker but recently put three large gangs of men at work on his individual ranches. He is branch ing out as rapidly as possible In the development of that region The spirit of complaint that existed for time during the rerair of the canal dam has died out. and with the bright pros poets for the future and assured crops for the coming season. the Buckeye residents form one of the most satisfied communities in Arizona

THE PRESIDENTS PLAN
The Document Will Be Shorter Than Its Predecessors, and Will Not Deal With Details of Depart mental Affairs-The Subject of Appointments to Be Shortly Made Was Also Before the Cabinet.

Washington, Oct. 25.-All the cabinet members were present at today's meet ing The rres dent discussed various features of his forthcoming message to congress and also the appointments which will be made in a short time. The consultation between the president and his cabinet was especially full ow- ing to the decision he had reached to write all of his own message to con- gress on original lines.
 Heretofore the secretary of state has written that portion covering foreign relations and the other cabinet officers have each contributed chapter con- cerning his respective department. The president has determined to do away with this detailed statement of the a:- fairs of each department. He will de- vote his message only to such topics as he chooses to lay particularly be fore congress. leaving the cabinet of ficers to acquaint congress with the details of their administration.
 Secretary Hay referred to the case If Miss Stone. In answer to questions he said messages received from the Amer ican officials at Sofia and Constanti- noi-le thre~ nc light on the hil.ng place of the woman.

HE STOLE A BICYCLE
And His Story About It Was as Clear
 as Mud.

Marshal Kinney arrested Mexican yesterday for stealing bicycle ard turned him over to the county officials for trial
 Early in the morning the Mexican appeared at Bente's bicycle shop and tired fo sell the wheel. M-- E"nie told him to call later. when the bank was open. Then he sent for the officer he knew it was stolen wheel. one Lamar Walker had been looking for for three weeks and the number If which was available. MT. Kinney laid low till the Mexican appeared when he placed him under arrest. His story was that he had been working on d ranch near Alhambra for month and that the proprietor had given hira the wheel and five dollars in money for his services. He also said he lived in town and went out to the ranch every day, but for some reason he could not re- member the name of the rancher O. tbe Io--.tiOn of the house where h. vrs m the habit of spending his nights. He finally admitted that there was scn.e- thing wrong with his head.
 The marshal also arrested three drunks that will be tried today.

duty has been admirably discharged. Everything is ready for the gathering of the delegates at 10 o'clock this morn ing.
 The Indian school band will be In town early and play several pieces on the streets previous to the opening of the convention and furnish music dur ing its sessions.
 Quite a number of delegates arrived here yesterday but the greater part os them are expected on this mornings trains. The Pima county delegation expected to be brought through from Maricopa on a special but it was learned last night that the west bound may be possible the delegates will not get to Maricopa in time to make d special train feasible.
 It is expected that every delegate appointed in this county will be pres ent and the most of them from the other parts of the territory. A list of delegates is printed in another column, but it is not complete for the reason that little time has elapsed since the appointment of some of them and their names have not been reported yet. But they will doubtless come binging their credentials with them.
 The theater will no doubt be taxed to it's utmost seating capacity as all who can attend will want to do SO whether they be delegates or not.
 The occasion bids fair to be the most remarkable gathering in the history of Arizona as it will mark the beginning of an organized effort of Ill parties. factions and sections. working harmon iously to secure that which all are most desirous of obtaining.

IA PHILADELPHIA FIRE
One of the Most Disastrous
 of the Year
Nineteen Persons Killed, Some of Them in Horrible Ways The Property Loss Estimated at Half 8 Million.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 25.-Eighteen persons killed and property valued at a half million destroyed, are the re- suits of fire which occurred today in the business section of the city. The number injured is not definitely known. but score of victims have been To- cated in the hospitals. A search is be- ing made in the ruins for corpses, as it is feared that others besides those known to be dead. have lost their lives.
 The fire originated in the basement of Hunt Wilson Company's building, where fluids used in finishing furni- ture, are stored. and which it is sup posed in some way exploded. Escape was cut off for hundreds of employees. except through the windows and fire escapes. The scene was terrible. Two men and one woman were roasted to death on a fire escape in plain view of the street. Another woman leaped from a window. landing astride of wires, which rent her body almost in twain. and where it hung for some time be- fore being removed.
 Most of the killed were at work on the fourth floor. where women were engaged in sewing. When the alarm came they became panic-stricken and confused. Many instances are related of heroism. The foreman of the up holstcrers on the seventh floor savr1 :weHI: persons by his cooln ..;s ;..:l presence of mind.
 Most of the fatalities occurred in the rear of the building. As if by a com mon impulse a majority of the em- ployes attempted to reach places o1 safety by means of fire escapes. Many were rendered practically insane with fright and took fatal leaps- Others were rendered unconscious by the heat and smoke and fell to the pavement When the firemen arrived on the scene Commerce street was filled with these unfortunate victims. Late tonight [ body was taken from the ruins. making the total~dead, so far as now known nineteen

THE GRAHD JURY
Engaged in Looking into . City Hat
 ter.

The grand jury had a very busy day yesterday, but did not reach a report. The great.r part of the day was spent upon the. alleged conduct of the city council in allowing its appointees to be assessed $5 month for the benefit of the young mems democratic club It was not given out by any grand juror or anybody else in authority that that matter was the subject of investiga- tion, but good guess could easily be based upon the personnel of the wit nesses.
 There were in attendance nearly all the paid members of the fire depart ment and police force. Henry Bloom horst. a former engine driver who 1t has been stated was discharged be- cause he had refused to continue the payment of the assessment and Regi- nald Price, another former paid mem ber. A couple of the councilmen wers, also summoned It is believed that the investigation was not concluded. There is a general impression on the street that the grand jury will not take a serious view of the case.
 The Birchell shooting case was also taken up but was not finished, as some of the witnesses in this case from Tenn pc said they had been ordered to re- turn on Monday.
 It Is believed that the deliberations of the jury will not be concluded be- fore the latter part of next week.
 The only case tried was that of L. Espinosa, charged with stealing a horse from A. J. Hansen of Kyrene last sumner. The defense was that Es- pinosa returned the animal though in the meantime an ofIlcer was hunting for him with a warrant
 There Is a misdemeanor charge against him of stealing . bicycle.
