Not Guilty.

Last Monday night the jury in the case of the Territory vs Wm. Young, charged with the murder of John T Hunter in Nogales. Dec. 30, 1899, brought in verdict of not guilty after having been out but twenty minutes.
 A little over year ago Young was a peace officer in the Town of NOgales and upon entering saloon observed Hunter sitting at faro table. A few minutes previous he had been warned that Hunter had threatened to kill him before morning. Hunter had the reputation of being swift in the use of gun and was considered dead shot, and when Young noticed him make move as though to draw a gun, he, thinking hls life to be in danger, drew as rapidly as possible, fired and Hunter fell dead.
 The coroners jury which was hastily summoned on the morning of the killing cleared Young on the ground of self defense. but the grand jury which was sitting at the time, brought in an indictment charging him with murder. His case was set for the July term Of court and he was taken into custody.
 Last July the jury failed to agree and the case was continued over until this term and the case retried.
 Last Friday night new jury was secured and Saturday and a portion of Monday was spent in taking testi- mony The territory was represent ed by H. T. Hereford, of Tucson. as. sisted by w. F. Cooper. The defence was represented by Gen. c. w. Frazier, of Phoenix. A. Orfilo of Tue. son. W.iJ. N. McCurdy and NJ. V. Howard, of Nogales.
 Argument in the case com menced Monday afternoon and was led off by Fl. T. Hereford, counsel fer the prosecution. He was followed by Gen. c. w. Frazier. of Phoenix Gen Frazier is an eloquent and convincing speaker and his argument in behalf of Young was heard with breathless interest and will long be remembered by those present. Attorney Howard next addressed the jury and was fol. lowed by A. Orfila who made a bril- liant plea for his client. District Attorney Cooper, of Pima county, presented the closing argument for the prosecution and the case was

SIR THOMAS
CONFIDENT
OF VICTORY
EXPRESSES THE Belief THAT
SHAMROCK II WILL LIFT
- AMERICAS CUP.
Lipton's Faith Based on Superiority of
Watson Boat Over Old Challenger
-Efusive Expressions Regard
ing Fair play of Americans
Thinks Columbia Will
Defend Cup.

! New York, Aug. IA. = Regarding Sir
Thomas Upton and his movements, the
Tribune's London correspondent cables
that Sir Thomas Upton will start to-
day for New York on the Teutonic, with
Mr.. Watson.
He repeats substantially the same ex-
pressions employed when the first Sham
rock had passed Sandy Hook and with
out doubt his feeling of confidence in
the success of Shamrock II. is genuine.
1t is based on the superiority of Wat
S ms boat over the old challenger.
Sir Thomas Lipton's faith in American
fair play is expressed as effusively now
as it was when he started for the pre-
vious contest. The published lists of the
guests whom he will entertain on the
Erin are not authoritative.
London, Aug. lathe morning papers
publish interviews with Sir Thomas Lip
ton, in the course Of which he express
ed himself as confident of the success
of the Shamrock II. and says he believes
the Columbia will be cosen to defend
the cup.

THE SHAMROCK is A WONDER
Yachting Expert Says Challenger is
Most Perfect Craft Imaginable
: Never Adequately Described.
(By Associated Press.)

(by Associated PreSs.)
, New York, Aug. 14.-John f. Spears,
the Worlds yachting expert, in his COM
ments upon the new Shamrock today
says, among other things:
"The appearance of the new Sham
rock as she rides the water at the Erie
Basin is most disquieting. In nothing
that was written on the other side was
she adequately described and nearly ev-
cry description of her sent to this coun-
try was misleading.
above water Shamrock II. is the most
beautiful thing imaginable. Let it be
fully understood that these adjectives are
applied only to what can be seen above
water. Her lines under water may be
wrong in various respects, though that
is scarcely probable. All that is visible
of the challenger is perfect"

Aged Horse Of Robert Smith Covers
the Distance in 1:41-Hurdie Race
Furnishes Fluke-Only One
Favoritc Wins-Curran Out
wrestles Gannon-Re-
suits OF Bicycle
Races.

The lowering of state record and a
'fiuke" in the hurdle race, at the track
yesterday, furnished the principal fea-
lures of the day. The attendance was
good the betting lively and the track
fast. Only one favorite rewarded his
hackers and the books got a chance to
get back some of the coin they gave out
Monday.
The state record was broken by Pope
Leo, who did mile in the fast time of
1:4l. The performance was a noteworth ny
one for the aged horse and was literally
arplauded. Jockey Mccarthy, who rode
Pope Leo, was rendered an ovation when
he returned to the judges stand after
the race and Robert Smith the owner
OF Pope Leo was the recipient of hearty
congratulations. He did not wager a
dollar on the race, though it is said
he induced some of his friends to get
down on his horse.
The "fuke in the hurdle race was due
to a mistake made by either the Jockeys
or the starter. with considerable inter-
ference from wise guys, who know it
all. Some claim the starter was a fault
while others lay all the blame at the
feet of the jockeys. At all events the
conduct at the post. of some of the
jockeys, was enough to cause any
amount Of trouble.
There We're seven starters and when
they got off, after twenty minutes delay,
the jockeys on Singleton and Granger
pulled up. They claimed the flag did
rot fall but Starter Harvey called it a
go and the rest went on, until the
crowd of wise guys lining the rail,
called to the jockeys that it was no go.
The result was that Old Fox and Joe
Bell were pulled up near the second
jump. The rest continued and the race
went to Rainier. to l, with Sam Green,
10 to l, second and Delgado. to /, third.
The time was 2:22A and the distance,
che mile and quarter, over five hur-
dies.
The other races after this report closed
yesterday afteroon, resulted as follows:

the lead. They went to the eighth at
snails pace. Lawson began to let
out as they rounded the lower turn, with
Taylor on his rear wheel. The Buffalo
boy made a feint at running up on the
bank for the finish and the major tried
to steal through on the inside. Quick

sition OF advantage and was away. The
sudden change of tactics by Lawson con.

CADILLAC FOULS THE INVADER
Deliberate Action Of Skipper of Can
ada's Cup Defender Results in
Disqualifying the Yacht.
(By Associated Press.)


Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 14.-William H.
Thompson. the Cadillac's skipper, pre-
scented the Invader with the third race
of the International yacht match for
the Canada's cup. by fouling the Cana
dian boat at the start, in full view of
the judges and most of the spectators.
Captain A. Jarvis of the Invander de-
clined to fly his protest flag, but the
Judges steamed after the Cadillac and
notified Captain Thompson that they
disqualified his boat, whereupon the
Cadillac left the race. The Invader
sailed over the course.
Judge Warner. speaking officially
gave it out that the unfortunate in-
cident was Captain Thompson's own
fault and that the judges had no
course left open to them but to dis
qualify the defender.

the saucer are not better patrOnized
is a problem difficult to solve. There is
no question about the sport. 1t is
honest, clean, interesting and exciting
and yet it apparently is not appre-
ciated. 1t is without doubt the best
sport Butte has known for years and
yet that fact also fails of appreciation.
If there were better sports or attrac-
tions of any kind going on in COMPETE
ton, it could readily be understood why
Butte did not turn out, to support the
bicycle races, but the city is absolute
ly without any sport that can in any
way compare with that being presented
at the saucer. For some reason that
fact is not realized and the result is
that the very finest kind of sport OBJ
tainable is going begging because of
lack of patronage.
Manager King, of the Butte Athletic
association, deserves unstinted praises
for his efforts in behalf of sport and ali
true sport lovers concede that fact
Mr.. King came to Butte when sport
was in a state of stagnancy and though
confronted by adverse conditions, he
labored assidiously to give the city
what he had reason to think would be
appreciat ted If Mr.. King fails In his
endeavor to get patronage. he can feel
assured that he has at least succeeded
in doing considerable for sport in Butte
and has ingratiated himself in the
hearts of all true sport lovers. to an
extent beyond his fondest expecta-
tons. He has shown that he Is made
UP of push. pluck and energy and that
he has sacrificed much is too apparent
to need mention. If Butte should wake
up some morning and find the saucer
track thing of the past Mr. King
could not be blamed.
