A LEGAL PUZZLE
Presented in the Late Motion to Set
 Aside Indictments.

The district court is confronted by Q very interesting legal problem for which there is at present no satisfac- tory solution. It is a motion of whi clr mention was made by The Republican yesterday to set aside the indictment for murder in the case of George Me Donald OF the ground that it was found by only eleven grand jurors, while the law requires that there must motions in the cases of other indict- ments based on the same ground. The information on which the attorneys for lne defendants made these motions is saiu to have been obtained from indi- vidual jurors who in giving out such information technically. at least. vio lated the instructions given them con corning preservation of secrecy regard ing the happenings of the grand jury room. Other members have since de- nied that any indictments have been found without the vote of at least twelve members.
 But the thing that puzzles the court and lawyers is now to bring the mat ter within the consideration of the court at all. The court plainly cannot ask the jury what happened. The only inquiry permitted to be made is: Have as many of your number as twelve con cured in the finding of these indict- ments?" That inquiry is always made at the time of the submission of the re- ports and it was made in the cases of the indictments which the court is now asked to set aside. The foreman re- piled in the affirmative and there was no dissenting reply.
 It has been suggested that the only way in which the case can be further investigated is for a member of the jury in open court to request the re- turn of the indictments for further consideration or for the correction of errors. Some lawyers say that that can not be done though there is a record of a case showing that procedure to be possible.
 In that case an indictment which the jury had refuse to find had by mis- take been returned to the court with a lot of other indictments and appear ed to be a true bill. The jury on rnak ing a discovery of the mistake request ed the return of the bill and it was d. lowed.

THE M'KINLEY ARCH
The Association Makes a Call to the
 Country.

Washington, Oct. 2T.-The William Mckinley national memorial arch as sociation today issued a statement to the public after detailing its objects. The statement continues: "Contribu- tors to it's fund will be made mem bers of the William Mckinley national memorial association. The treasurer, Hon. Lyman J. Gage, secretary of the treasury of the United States. Wash ington, will receive all contributions and forward certificates of membership to all contributors. Contributions of money may be handed to postmaster.;. managers of telegraph, telephone. or express offices or deposited in banks or other financial institutions and newspapers
 They are hereby authorized and re quested to receive and transmit con- tributions to the treasurer. The asso- citation heartily invites and confident ly expects the cooperation of gover- nors of states and territories, maxors of cities and all other public officials and of the press of the country, churches. colleges, schools and of all organized cities. He requests that they take immediate action to promote the objects of the association by making and securing subscriptions

scene of operations and went away. In a couple of hours Mark returned to the county treasurer and received half dollar.
 Did you do a good job, Mark ?'' asked MT. Walker. Did you get 'em all cut off about even, sos they won't look ragged?"
 They are as near even as I could make en- replied Mark. You can sight along the top of 'em and won't discover no rough or uneven places. I couldn't "a cut 'em any more even without spirit-level.' When MT. Walker went home that night he dis covered as thorough a job of rose bush cutting as a kind and beneficent Prov idence has ever permitted a man to look upon. The tops were, as Mark had said. as near even as it was pos sible to make them, and were about an inch below the surface of the ground. MT. Walker found the place in the neighborhood where Mark had borrowed the axe with which he had done the cutting off. MT. Walker said he wouldn't have had the thing hap pen for $500 if he had been consulted. In his opinion Mark Twain is more profitable to society as a harmless par asite than as an active participant in it's struggles and endeavors to build itself up.

LIVING OR DEAD ALIKE
The Authorities are Planning Him Out of Any Notoriety-It is Pro posed to Burn His Clothing and Everything That Belongs to Him That There May be Nothing Left for the Relic Hunters.

Auburn, Oct. 27.-The time that CZol- qosz the assassin of President McKIn- ley. has to live is reckoned by hours. but there has been no relaxing of tho stringent rule by which the prison,r has been secluded since his arrest. The prison was closed today to any who sought the assassin and so it will TO- main until the prisoner has paid the penalty the law eXacts.
 In fact the plan to deprive Czolgosz living of any notoriety has been ex- tended to deprive Czolgosz dead of any notoriety. Immediately after the exc cution the clothing of the murderer with the vast accumulation of mail that came to him will be burned if the possible request of the parents of the dead man for the remains can be evaded.
 It is feared that the removal of the body to Cleveland may lead to scenes of an unfortunate nature. The prison officials are very anxious to avoid any thing of the kind. The plan of burning the clothing and letters of the murder CT is to prevent their exhibition as rel les by those who pander to the nor bid. The hour of : o'clock Tuesday morning is the time set by Warden Meade for the execution.

 Morning.

Governor Otero of New Mexico and his party consisting of Col. J. Francis co Chavez, Adjutant General White man. Surgeon General Tipton. Col T. :. Hubbell and Hon. C. J. Gavin left this morning for the north. They were ac- companied as far as Prescott by Gov ernor Murphy who will spend day or two there.
 The visitors yesterday confirmed the pleasant impression formed by them . f Phoenix the day before. They went through the city and made short drives into the country. Col. Chavez. speak ing again yesterday of his visit to the Salt River valley and the present To- cation of Phoenix in 1858. to which he made reference in his speech at the statehood convention on Saturday. said he could conceive of no more complete transformation than had been made here within the time between his two visits. He was the more surprised the more he saw of the city.
 All the gentlemen said they were overwhelmed with the kindness shown them and before leaving expressed q wish that they might be put into a po- sition to return.

VICTORY FOR TEMPE
Crimson Rims Give Mansfelds the
 Horse Laugh.

Yesterdays base ball game at Phoe- park was d good one and resulted in a victory for the Crimson Rims by d score of IA to F. The Mansfields did good work, however, and the game was a very close one till bad error was made by member of the Mansfield team resulting in three tallies for the visitors.
 The attendance was unusually goo1 the grand stand being filled and every Dencn warmer seemed to be a fan. There was great enthusiasm and both sides had their spielers who knew what lungs were made for and used them accordingly.
 Valenzuela who plays second base for the Crimson Rims. made a double play that brought him special notice and a round of applause. Mays of the home team made two home runs and every home run made in the game was on work, but that might be said of nearly all those in the game for it was so evenly matched that no one could fore tell the result. It was a game from be- ginning to end and not a farcical per- formance.
 Red Phillips umpired the game and his decisions were not questioned by either side. He is making a remarkable record as an umpire. Most umpires would be lynched if they stayed so long in one place and umpired games so frequently. He has proved that a base ball umpire may be fair if he wants to.

 last message from the father of Leon
 Czolgsz. the condemned assassin. who
 pays the penalty for his terrible deed
 at Auburn prison on Tuesday morning.
 In an interview this afternoon the elder
 Czolgosz was asked what he had to say finally to his unfortunate son. The old mans eyes filled with tears but he re- piled deliberately: Tell Leon I hope he may rest peacefully: that he may become reconciled to God and that he will meet his end bravely. Tell him that much as l and all the family ra- gret his most unhappy plight. we can |do nothing to interfere. He alone is responsible for his unfortunate sin. He must meet his punishment as consA- Guence"

FEAR CIVIL WAR IN TURKEY.
Why France Is Not Pressing the Lo-
 rando Claim-Powers to Act?

Paris, Oct 27.-It is asserted that France is refraining from coercing Turkey in the matter Of the claim Of M Lorando. because of the fear that silch action on her part would start civil war in the Ottoman Empire. It is said that the feeling of unrest in Macedonia and Armenia is so serious as constantly to threaten the preser- walton of peace.
 It is also stated that the powers, iE response to the initiative of Russia and Trance. are discussing the question of joint action to bring pressure on the Forte to execute reforms. If this should fail the powers wil jointly take such action as will compel the sultain to in stitute the necessary reforms.
 The opportunity will also be used to settle the Cretan question. It is fur the= stated that Russia has now de- cided to allow Prince George of Greece, the high commissioner in Crete. q free hand in that country. In that case Crete would doubtless be annexed to Greace.

A TEMPER PUNISHED
Hon. J. E. Walker Induced Man
 to Break a Resolution

For d good many years man lived in several Arizona towns and mining camps solely on tine contributions of those whom he knew long time ago He is called Mark Twain. on account of certain facial resemble nee to DOT traits of the famous humorist pub lished fifteen or twenty years ago. It is ten years since Mark announced that he would never again perform any act of labor. If all New Year resolutions were as religiously kept as this one has been. there would not be distil- lery or brewery in this fair land There would be no wives made pallid by the rum power; there would be no children ragged and hungry because their fa- ther's weekly wages had gone over the bar. The jails would be cmptied the churches filled and happiness would reign everywhere. if all the good re- solves were as stern and unyielding as Mark Twain's declaration against labor. He is known to have never given way but once; that time he fell before allurinE temptation spread in his way by County Treasurer J. F.. Walker. The punishment of the temp
 ter was properly swift and terrible.
 Mir Walker has been for some years a more or less regular contributor to the fund for the maintenance of Mark in likeness Every day Mark makes levy on the list of subscribers. seldom collecting from anyone less than ten cents. About two months ago when Mir. Walker was making preparations for the return of his family from Iron Springs. Mark made his daily call one day. He received his assessment and was about to leave, when Mir. Walker said to him: Say. Mark, do you think you could do any kind of work ?' Mark replied that he could if it wasn't too hard. Its q soft job.' said Mr- Walker; 'I am expecting my family down from Iron Springs and want to get the place fixed up little; there's q lot of rose bushes that have got pretty rank this summer. and want them cut down. Do you think you know how to do it?'' Sure" said Mark; that's easy MT. Walker conducted him to the

CIVILIZATION BY FORCE.
Says Fine Theories Do Not Make for
 Nations Happiness.

Paris, Oct. 27.-Speaking at a mili- tary banquet at Marseilles yesterday, General Metzinger. who was General Duchesene's second in command in the conquest of Mada gascar, and who now commands the Fifteenth army corps, referred particularly to the necessity of discipline. He said he did not wish to say that force should oppress right, but civilization without force was mere emptiness.
 Fine theories, he said. do not make for the happiness of nations. It was in the name of fine theories that Cuba was torn from Spain- It is likewise in their name that the Boers would fall were it not for the fact that they are armed with good rifles and are able to utilize them.

FIRED FOR LOYALTY
Sin of Member Of the Reformed
 Presbyterian Church
Had Sworn to Support the Constitu- tion of the United States Believed by His Church to be an Immoral Document.

Boston, Oct. 21.-Because he became citizen of the United States and swore to uphold the constitution of his adopted country, Elder James Jack son, of PIP Broadway, Cambridge has been suspended from membership in the Second Reformed Presbyterian church, of Boston, by the Rev. J. M. Foster, pastor.
 Tae New 4ork presbytery of the church, at it's fall meeting, held in Boston last Tuesday, confirmed the sentence. refusing to sanction the ac- tion of S. G. Shaw, pastor of the First Reformed Presbyterian church of Cam bridge. in admitting MT. Jackson to membership in his congregation after his suspension by MT. Foster.
 MT. Foster decided that MT. Jackson must acknowledge his wrongdoing and repent. or leave the church. The lat ter contended that he had done, TO wrong and refused to confess he had, and was suspended from membership.
 As soon as MT. Foster learned that the First church had admitted Jackson to membership. he drew up a complaint to the presbytery, saying, He refused to acknowledge that he had done wrong, maintaining that the article of our testimony forbidding the members of our church to swear to support an immoral constitution of government was unscriptural, and therefore not binding"
 "The mere statement of the case. as 1t stands. puts it in an altogether wrong light" explained MT. Foster to- night Tt is true that we look upon the constitution of the United States as an immoral document and an insult to the Almighty in that it makes no mention whatever of God and claims for the people that sovereign power which belongs to God alone. We refuse to accept the constitution thus defec- tive and cannot swear allegiance to it. l don't think there is anything in the suggestion that MT. Jackson can go to law and compel us to admit him 70 membership in our church.

MADE A GREAT FIGHT
Stood Of Two Nashville Detectives, Stole Several Horses in His Hur- ried Flight, Killed Two Blood hounds and Left Behind Him Some Proofs in Support of the Suspicion That He is Wanted Man.

Nashville Tenn. Oct. PA desperate man fought his way clear of two city detectives today. and after a terrific chase made good his escape. In his race for liberty he utilized a two horse wagon team, a horse and buggy and a riding morse, all forcibly taken. while two dead bloodhounds mark the first portion of his trail The officers believe the man is one of the gang that held up the Great Northern express near Wagner. Mont. last June. His attempt to get change for a s20 bill of the series secured in that robbery, at tracted the attention of the police to him.
 This morning a raw-boned man about five feet. ten inches, of florid complex ion, offered a bill in payment for small purchase made at a store in the public square. Difficulty in making the change caused the salesman to closely notice the bill, which proved to be on the Montana bank, to which the stolen bills were consinged. The police were quietly notified, the clerk mean while delaying the matter of change.
 Detectives Dwyer and Dickins were soon on hand and approaching the man demanded his name. Ferguson" was the repuy. After another question or two Detective Dwyer informed the man that he was under arrest Quick as flash Ferguson held a revolver in each hand and started for the door. A hand to hand fight ensued, both of the off, cers graphing with the stranger, who proved more than a match for them Using his pistols as clubs, he fought his way to the door and fled down the street. A passing ice wagon caught his attention. and it's three occupants were soon out of his way. At a terrific clip he starfei the wagon across the Cum berland bridge, a fusilade of shots fol lowing. One of the horses fell with a broken leg, but the fugitive was not delayed.
 Running across the street he held up an old negro driving a buggy, and the flight was continued. once the buggy was overturned. but it was quickly righted. Finally the tired horse was abandoned. and diving into Shelby park on foot, the supposed bandit secured another horse. hitched near the park. After a sensational ride. the horse was left and the flight continued on foot The pursuers found two bloodhounds. which were used in the chase. shot to death. After that the trace of the man was lost. When the buggy was aban doned the man threw away or lost a wallet. containing s1,040 in ten and twenty dollar bills of the Montana bank

 tically Completed.

Washington. Oct. 27.-Brigadier Gen eral Frederick c. Ainsworth, the presi- dent of the record and pension office, in his annual report to the secretary of war shows that 1S5,962 cases were received and disposed of during the fiscal year.
