NO TONTO MAIL ROUTE
New Board of Trade Pamphlets a
 Credit to All Concerned.

The board of trade yesterday received information from the second assistant postmaster general. that the petitions made by the board and citizens of the valley, as well as citizens of the Tonto Basin country for the establish ment of mail route between Mesa and Tonto. had been denied. The reason given was that the road was impassa- ble. This is the result that was natu- rally expected. when. no move was made to repair the road. The board of trade offered to raise a fund by sub
 scription to spend on the Gila county side of Reno mountain. providing the board of supervisors would fix up the road on this side. The supervisors took no action, and consequently the board of trade did not. But when the petition for the mail route was cir culated it was supposed that the road would be in good shape by the time

THE STRUGGLE TODAY
Probabilities of the Result in
 Greater New York
Republicans are Confident Though Croker Predicts the Election of the Whole Tammany Ticket As to San Francisco.

New York, Nov. At midnight, six hours before the polls open, both sides in the municipal contest are claiming the victory. The most strenuous talk came from the fusion leaders, who were more in evidence at their headquarters than were the democratis at theirs. Later. after a distribution of campaign funds in the afternoon, they hurried to their several election precincts to give the last orders to their followers. John A. Mason of Shepard's headquarters says he is confident of the result anG placed the democratic candidates ma jority at 10000. During the late after noon Seth Low. the fusion candidate. said: "I think things could not look better
 Robert Morris, chairman of the re- publican campaign committee. sticks to his estimate of 70.0O0 for Low. La-e tonight wagers were made at 10 to on Low and the rest of the city ticket. Predictions are made that all the can didates on the democratic county ticket in New York county will be elected with the possible exception of Robert Van Wyck, justice of the supreme court, and the candidate for district attorney.
 Richard Croker and John Carroll late tonight were positive of the election of the entire democratic ticket.

g THE YELLOW" CONTEMPT
The Answer to the Bill in the Chi
 cago American Case.

Chicago. Nov. A continuance in the contempt proceedings against the editors of Hearst's Chicago American was ordered by Judge Hanecy this af- ternoon. the case being set for tomor- row. Counsel for the defense filed an answer to the bill charging contempt. A change of venue and a trial by jury was asked for. The answer asserted that the matter published in the paper was in no way intended to embarrass the court or intimidate the court, as it Was charged.
 William R. Hearst, it was asserted. was not responsible for what appears in the paper. being merely a majority stockholder. It also stated that if the newspaper has printed matter placing those in authority in contempt of court Andrew Lawrence, the managing edi- tor, should alone be held. as he is re- sponsible for all that goes in the Daner

Story of the Killing of De-
 Vanne'S Murderer
FLIGHT FROM YUMA
The Pursuit and the Overtaking of the Fugitive-The Desperate Be- fore the Flight Occurred Begged His Mexican Companion to Kill Him-It Was However Very Sat- isfactorily Done Anyhow.

Yuma Ariz., Nov. A. Thomas Hart, the murder of Under Sheriff Devanne, who escaped in the jail break on Sunday night, was overtaken and killed within three miles of Fortuna at dusk last evening. Leivas was with him. but he surrendered and was re- turned here to jail today. It appears that at noon yesterday when Deputy Sheriff Wm- Neahr was alone in the jail, little girl brought a watermelon to the jail for Leivas. Neahr opened the jail door sufficiently wide to hand in the melon.
 As he did so Hart caught him by the hand and pulled him in. Hart was armed with a knife and compelled Neahr to give up the keys. He did so and was locked in the jail. Hart and Leivas then armed themselves with guns found in the sheriff's office. Then then went to a locomotive that was standing on switch with steam up. They ordered the fireman off. and Lei vas took charge. while Hart opened the switch to the main track. The fireman ran to the house of Section Boss Gal lagher. who lived some distance down the track. As the engine passed his house he used both a rifle and a shot gun He missed with the rifle but the shot struck Leivas in the face. but the
 
 damage.
 When near Blaisdell the men left the engine. opened the throttle and sent her ahead. Then they went in the di- rection of Fortuna, where Leivas has relatives and friends. An engine with a stock car containing a posse and five horses was soon in pursuit. and Dep uty Sheriff Neahr and Julio Martinez were the first to strike the trail of the fugutives. whom they eventually saw on the road ahead of them. Being un- observed they made circuit of the country, and when within about three miles of Fortuna they again struck the road ahead of the fugitives. where they awaited them
 On Hart and Leivas coming up they were ordered to throw up their hands, which Leivas did, but Hart attempted to use a Savage rifle with which he was armed. He was shot five times through the breast and body and killed almost instantly. The coroner at For tuna was notified and an inquest held and verdict was rendered in accord ance with the above facts. The bodS- was then taken to Fortuna and was buried at that place this morning. Hart had worn his Oregon boot for more than a mile after he left the railroad. when it was cut off with tools taken from the engine. Hart was very weak and he begged Leivas to kill him and take care of himself. Much satisfaction is felt hereabo over the successful ending of the business. Hart was with out doubt a desperate criminal

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Lots of Work Done But Mostly of
 Routine Mature.

The regular monthly meeting of the city council was held last night and as usual the most important matters to general public went over to a later date for definite action.
 It was generally expected that the council would act on the petition of citizens for the submission of the new charter to the people, but when that order of business was reached it was late and the. meeting adjourned to Thursday night.
 There were the usual monthly bills which were audited and later warrants ordered for the same. and the quarter iy reports of the various city officers were received and read. Councilman Sanders reported that the city was in a clean condition and a cutting down of expense in that line would follow shortly, as well as the sidetracking of one of the sprirltling carts.
 The report of the committee on public buildings and grounds was called for relative to the purchase of a block in Churchill's addition for the purposes of 2 park. The chairman being absent, the other two members reported that they could not agree and the matter went over. A rather strange petition was then read from several residents who own property in the vicinity of the block in question. They asked the coun- cil to reject the proposition made to buy the block Generally citizens are only too glad to have a park located near them, but these men are different
 Councilman Shott presented plans for band stand to be erected on the city plaza to cost in the neighborhood Of $500. The matter was referred to the committee on buildings and grounds.
 A report was made on the Murphy addition water right and discussion of the question took up q great deal of time- It was finally decided to iee the property owners deed in trust 70 the mayor their pro rata of the water right, then demand from the Murphy estate the delivery of the water share or that portion of it pertaining to the property. Should the estate fail to lo so. the property owners and the city will be in position to take legal ac- tion- The Crittenton home and the water share in question were exempted from the city tax and many other mat ters of minor importance were attend- ed to.

Tobin. dem ocrat, is a young attorney and a mem Der of wealthy family, just finishing 2 term as supervisor. Eugene Schmitz. the candidate of the united labor party, is a musician.

A LONDON FOG
The Worst That Has Been Experi-
 enced in Years.

London. Nov. A fog such as Great Britain has not experienced for years enveloped London and half the United Kingdom today. blockading shipping, deranging railways and throwing busi- ness in London. Birmingham and other provincial cities into confusion 50 oense was it that a walk into the streets was an adventure. The fog de- scended over the metropolis and sub urbs so thick that between and , o'clock in the afternoon the principal avenues of traffic resembled the steam room of Turkish bath.
 Hundreds of thousands of Londoa's suburban population and vicinity en- deavored to grope their way to the rail way stations. The few who succeed ad found the trains all stalled. Around Trafalgar square and the house of par liament scenes unparalleled for years were witnessed. HunGreds of omni- buses, cabs, carts and wagons were formed in an inextricable. unmovable mass. The mounted police, in trying to clear the jam, got lost themselves. and many vehicles were in collision were. stood at the heads of their horses, patiently awaitign the lifting os the premature darkness.
 Lanterns were at premium, news boys transformed their papers into temporary torches and highwaymen pursued their vocation.
 Casualties were frequent, and even hardened Londoners freely expressed their dread of a continuation of such q fog.
 If the fog had not lifted somewhat toward night London would have been so congested as to it's housing resource es, commodious as they are, that it would have been taxed beyond it's lini- it's by the forced accommodation of fog bound suburbanites.
 Several theaters were obliged to close this evening on account of the fog. Many street robberies are re- ported. Two express trains had mar row escapes from collision. Business is at standstill.
