JOsSEY'S DEATH.

The Tucson Citizen of the 27th con tains an account of the death of Mr. Jossey. From the account, which is somewhat lengthy, it seems that Mir. Jo7scy, in the early hours of the morn- ing, took his shot gun and went out to the chicken cook to kill pole cat which had been bothering the chicken coop for some nights. In some unac- cOuntablc manner the gun was ac- cidentally discharged, and Mr. Jossey was struck in the left breast with the contents of one barrel. The cOrOner's jury brought in verdict of accident al shooting. Mr. Jossey leaves wife and daughter eighteen years of age, who have the sympathy of Mr. ,Iossey's many friends in this section.

MORALES CUSTOM
 HOUSE SCANDAL.
Collector Hoey and Chinese Inspector
 Jossey Implicated.

Dispatches from Washington of the 2lth instant, conveyed the intelligence that B. F. Jossey, Chinese inspector, Of Tucson, and Collector Wm. HOey, Of Nogales, had been placed under arrest, charged with q conspiracy to smuggle Chinese into this country from Old Mexico. Jossey is well known here, having been appointed to office under the Cleveland administration. He has been q frequent visitor to Clifton, and for several months past has been in- terested in the development of some copper claims in the Greenlee district. The arrests under the charges as al- legged, created no surprise here as it has been an open secret for more than q year that crooked work was go- ing on. The Chinamen themselves have talked about the matter openly with their American friends and employers. Tho dispatch states that the usual price of admission for each smuggled Chinaman was 32jO, and it is alleged that large numbers were admitted at that price. The dispatch also states that a prom inent resident Chinaman Of Clifton Is connected with the gang, but up to the present time no Chinaman has been arrested here.
 It is also alleged in Clifton that the operations covered broader field than merely smuggling in Chinamen. It has been freque ntly stated that China men who had no papers were turned loose after being arrested without an examination before q Y. 5. com missioner.

Frank Lusk, formerly of the firm of Streeter X Lusk, railroad contractors who built the Morenci Southern, came in this week to interview the editors on "those nine new railroads" " which the ERA brought into Clifton last week. Mr. Lusk said that the editorial was telegraphed to Chicago, and appeared in all the papers there Friday last, and he packed his grip and left at once for Clifton hoping to arrive in time 10 get con tracts on some of the roads. He is now doing some figuring" and will soon have his bids ready Mir. Lusk says that he admires the ERA on ac- count of its enterprise. Most papers, he says, are satisfied to build one rail- road a week, but when the ERA goes into the railroad business, it builds enough to last for at least six months.

C. NJ. Shannon, member of the Cliff ton school board, called on the ERA with grievance. Some weeks since the ERA suggested that the school board employ at least four teachers for the Clifton schools. Mir. Shannon states that the old school building has but two rooms, hence the board could not employ more than two teachers. The building is not well located, and the board has decided not to open school until it can do so in d different location, and in a new building. or buildings. An election has been or dered by the board for the purpose of voting bonds to the amount of S12, 900, which will be used for the purpose of building one or more school houses. Mir. Shannon favors building two school houses, one in the south and one in the north end of town. The election is ordered for the 9th day of Septem Der. Only tax payers can vote. Clifton must have good school facilities. Re member the date.

A game of base ball for the cham pionship of the territory was played in Clifton Sunday last between the crack teams of Bisbcc and MOrenCi, which re- suited in q victory for Morcnci by q score Of 10 to 2 The Morenci team had five earned runs and the Bisbee none. Morenci made : errors and Bis bee <. Gray got I5 strike-Outs and Armstrong I Four hits were made off Gray and II off Armstrong. It was q snappy, spirited game. The Bisbee team was clearly outclassed, but gave Morenci the best battle of the season. Gray's pitching was wonder, and his balls were well handled by Hale.
