SIR HENRY WAS WISE
When He Gave the Admiral a Box and Notified the Populace of His Munificence e- In Consequence 50 Great a Crowd Assembled That Many Had to be Turned Away.

Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 26.-Rear Ad- miral Schley who, with Mrs. Schley, arrived here today to remain until to- morrow as guests of Colonel A. K Mo Cure, was the center of an enthus- iastic demonstration at the Broad Street station of the Pennsylvania rail- road when the Washington express rolled into the train shed. More than thousand persons congregated in the station to see the admiral when he stepped from the train. The crowd set up a wild cheer. The people massed around him and it was with much diff ficulty that the police opened a passage way for him to leave the station.
 Tonight the admiral, Mrs. Schley and party occupied a box at the Chestnut Street Opero house .as guests of Sir Henry Irving. to see the English actor in "The Merchant of Venice The crowd at the opera house was one of the greatest ever present in that place, hundreds of persons being turned away long before the curtain rose. it having been known that the admiral would attend the play. He was enthusias- tically greeted.
 After the performance the party was entertained at luncheon at Hotel Belle vue. The admiral and Mrs. Schley will leave for New York tomorrow morning to spend Thanksgiving day with their daughter. Mrs. Wortley.

A VERY CLOSE CALL
J. B. Kohl Fell Under a Street Car
 Narrowly Escaping Death

Mr J. B. Kohl who resides at the corner ot Third and Fillmore streets mad a very narrow escape from death through the agency of a street ca. shortly after dark last night, at the junction of the Indian school and Brill's addition lines on North First street. He was pretty badly bruised up, one of his ears somewhat torn and altogether so severely knocked out that he could walk only with great difficulty after ward, though it is not believed the ef feet will be serious.
 MT. Kohl and his little boy were rid ing on the front of the car coming toward the city, Officer Russell being on the other end of the seat. The little boy was on the seat and MT. Kohl was in a half sitting position with one foot on the running board on the right side of the car. The cars ordinarily go round the curve pretty fast consider ing that it is an exceptionally sharp one, though it is said the car last night did not have an unusual rate of speed. As the car turned the curve MT. Kohl was thrown outwardly but caught the handle at the end of the dashboard with both hands thinking to save him self from a fall. But he lost his balance and swung round in front of the car, hanging on as long as he could, put nnally losing ms hold and falling across the rails. The wheels approached him and it is said pushed him along the rails for several feet, q: most fortunate circumstance. for had he not been showed he would have been killed. The motorman, assisted by MT. Russell applied the brake reversed the current and stopped the car as quickly as possible, but when it stopped the wheel was up against the back of Mir. Kohl s neck and shoulder and he was pretty badly bruised. His little boy screamed so loudly it aroused several of the residents nearby and a number of ladies who started out when they heard the child screaming thought an- other tragedy mad been enacted and retreated into their homes.
 Mir. Kohl was placed on the car which returned with him to his home where he was made as comfortable as possi- b1e and a physician summoned. MT. Kohl said that he had no complaint to make as he was probably somewhat careless in not being more firmly in his seat when the curve was reached.

BUSINESS IN PHOENIX
The Annual Complaint of Falling
 Off Being Heard.

The annual complaint about the con dition of business in Phoenix is now
 in progress. It is again said that times
 were never so dull at this season of the
 year as they are now. Some attribute
 the condition to the repatriation of the
 saloon singer and furnish incidents in
 proof. Others say that the abolition of
 the block was bad commercial move.
 Again others attribute the annual des-
 aster to the annual shortened water
 supply and the yearly dispute between
 the farmers and the water company.
 A business man and a prominent
 hotel man said yesterday that this year
 is no worse i'll the liIies or general busi-
 ness than any of its predecessors, but
 that on the contrary 1t is rather bet
 ter. There is no doubt that the saloon
 business has suffered somewhat from
 the absence of the singer and that the
 suffering has been extended in a slight
 measure to the merchants who have
 lost the generous trade of those inn
 provident song birds who regularly in
 vested their salaries in fine feathers.
 It was admitted that perhaps there
 were some mining men and cattle men
 who had transferred their trade to
 some other town because the voice of the saloon singer was no longer heard in this land.
 But these circumstances did not in- terfere with the fact when it is care fully observed, that in a general way business is better in Phoenix now than 1t ever was before in the latter days of November. There are more people here than is usual at this early season of the year. They arc not of the veal thy class who always prefer to spend their holidays at home but they con- sist for the most part of people in moderate circumstances who have been driven here by i'll health and expect
 to make more or less permanent homes
 in Phoenix. They have already occu- pied nearly all the new houses built in Phoenix during the last summer to the l number of several hundred, houses of from four to seven rooms. A very large
 number of those who are already here have come for the first time. They are buying things that they have to have but they are not engaged in the reck- less spend ng of money; neither do they add to the liveliness O; the streets | at late hour of the night for as has been remarked they are here for their ho-ltn. They are neither poor nor rich
 bu. most of them are good substantial citizens and the grocery and the dry goods and boot and shoe stores have | been made aware of their presence Another thing to be taken account | of, said the bushes man, '.is this: ! The number of merchants in Phoenix l is constantly increasing much faster
 than a reasonable annual increase Of
 the winter population. The trade is | becoming more and more divided so that those who do not stop to think
 are apt to suppose that the general vol. | ume of it is falling off,
 There is another fact; the business of he iG far for hoy
 was at this season of the year. That | is a circumstance that could be occa- l stoned only by a greater population. | After Thanksgiving a larger influx
 may be expected and a stil larger one
 after the Christmas holidays.

FOR THE GOLFERS
Committee Appointed to Arrange for
 Country Club Ball.

Arrangements are being made for a good time at the golf links of the Coun- try club on Thanksgiving day. The ladies will serve tea, and it is expected there will be large attendance of both members and visitors.
 A meeting was held yesterday, at which MT. C.tF. Ainsworth. president of the club. appointed a committee of ladies and gentlemen to make arrange ments for the grand ball. which will be given some time in December, and which will be a very notable society event The committee will meet this evening in the parlors of Hotel Adams to outline a plan of work and to select sub-committees-
 The names of the members of the general committee of arrangements are: Mesdames N. O. Murphy. Harry Jones, H. L. Bixby, Leo Goldman, B. Heyman, s. Oberfelder, s. M. Me Cowan, w. C.

A FOREGoNE CONCLUSION
The Acquittal of Another Headgate
 Breaking Defendant.

The trial of Henry E. Slosser, charg- ed with breaking a headgate of the Arizona Water company, took place yesterday in Justice Burnett's court and verdict of acquittal was rendered in less than five minutes. This case was slightly different from any Of the oth- CTS that have been tried. The defend ant was engaged in the litigation ou1 of which all the present trouble has grown. He secured an injunction in what is known as the Sloan decision restraining the water company from shutting off his water supply.
 From this decision the company ap. pealed and the case is now on it's way- to the supreme court of the United States. So the defendant having won his case in the district court in thu. territorial supreme court and in the court of Justice Burnett which has been designated a superior court, MT. Slosser must feel himself well equip ped for entrance into the highest court of the land.
 The members of the jury yesterday were F. Clark, H. A. Davidson, Charles Higgins. Dolph Glines. A. M. Pauff. I. R. Graham, O. W. Peters, l.. Ruben- stein. F. Thompkins, w. A. Beller. Leo Goldman and Charles DeMund The witnesses for the territory were J. M. Grier and w. L. Osborn, who testified that they had seen the defendant break the headgate, a fact which was not controverted, but which was all but admitted. In this case as in the pre- vious ones a plea of justification was raised to which objection was made by Acting District Attorney Kibbey. The jury was retired while the objec- ttol was being argued. Justice Bur nett decided to admit it. He said that the cage was not purely criminal one but rather quasi-criminal and that while, if the matter rested wholly with the court the plea might not be con sidered it was proper that it should be presented to the jury and be given such weight as it deserved.
 The most of the trial was made up of arguments which consumed the greater part of the afternoon. The use lessness of trying any of the rest of these cases is apparent and though there are several of them on the docket in both the justice courts it is probable that they will be dismissed.
 Notices were served on the farmers yesterday of the injunction proceedings begun against them by the company the day before. The farmers were equally busy sending out notices to all | the farmers under the Salt Maricopa and Grand canals whatever their status with respect to the water company to attend the meeting in this city on Sat urday morning.

AN ATHLETIC EVENT
A Holiday I Tournament,in Which Only
 Artists Will Appear.

The most stirring event of the clos ing year will be an athletic tournament, to-wit: A steer tying contest between that distinguished vaquero from Chica- go. L. R. Krueger and that eminent ca ballero and matador from Tennessee, William B. Cunningham. The records of both these articles have been made. MT. krueger is known at nome as "The Cowboy of the Water Front" His fame securely rests on the circum- stance that within sight of a crowd of many thousands on the Fourth day of July in 1896 he roped and tied the old est. most experienced and the most ir- ritable COW imported especially from La Sale county in the state of Illin- ois expressly for that purpose. in the

WANTS A YEAR MORE
To Try the Effect of the Anii-
 Canteen Law
The Reports of Army Officers are Sol idly Against It, but Secretary Root Believes It Has Not Had a Full Trial.

Washington. Nov. 26.-Secretary Of War Elihu Root today submitted his annual report to the president. On the canteen question the secretary says: The provisions of section 3S of the act of February, 1901, prohibiting the sale of or dealing in beer. wine or any in- toxicating liquors by any person in any post exchange or canteen or army transport or upon premises used for military purposes by the United States has been carried into full effect. When the orders were issued for the enforce ment of this section of the law, the commanding officers of the various posts and military organizations were directed to report upon it's effects The great body of the reports received in dicate that the effect of the law has been unfortunate. I think, however. a sufficient time has not elapsed to give the law a fair trial and observations and reports on its workings should be continued during the ensuing year.
 The reports show that food and cloth ing furnished have been satisfactory; that the health of our troops has been good. that the death rate has been low. The death rate per thousand troops in the United States during the past year was 1O.14 in Cuba 9.72, in Porto Rico 7.90 and among the troops serving in the Philippines and China was reduced from 19.31 during the previous year to 1876. during the past year.

AGAINST THE SECURITIES
Toole Will Fight the Railways if He
 is Shown How.

Helena, Mont, Nov. Ex-Governor Toole today replied to the request of Governor Van Sant of Minnesota as to the combination of the Northern Pa cific, the Great Nortbern and the Bur lington railways by the Northern Sc curities company. Governor Toole, says according to the interpretation by Gov ernor Van Sant of the objects of the Securities company the absorption is a plain violation of the constitution and laws of Montana.
 He says he does not know what lega; means can be taken to defeat the ob- jects of the consolidation. but what ever they are. will be brought into op- eration.
