LOWER FREIGHT
 COAST TO BISBEE
IT WAS PUT INTO EFFECT BY THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC
rse New Schedule Aboiishes the Ben con Rate-Tueson Rates for All Points in coehise County
 in cochise County

The reduction of the freight rates to Hsbee has been put into effect The Review hret learned last week thak the Southern Pacific vas to re duce their rate to Bisbee, Naco and Fairbank, sufficient to absorb the rate which has been charged by the Fl Paso and Southwestern from Benson to these points. The reduction to Bisbee win amount to 37 cente on many articles. The rate remains un- changed on such articles as have here tofore had a special rate. Potatoes and onions, for instance, remains the came. The reduction on sugar in car load lots is only 12 cents per hun dred.
 Ever since the El Paso & South western began to receive freight at Deming and deliver it at Bisbee and Naco al the same rate the Southern Pacific charged to Benson there has been a great effort made by the mer- chants in California and at Tucson to induce the Southern Pacific to con- cede a reduction in order to meet the advantage given to El Paso and other eastern points by the rate from Dem ing to the Bisbee country. The Dem ing rate gave to Bisbee a big advan- tage over Tucson and Phoenix. The new rate will give Bisbee even a greater advantage over these points.
 This new rate is going to help our wholesalers" said Bisbee merchant yesterday. We will have a big ad- vantage in freights. In fact the Bis bee rate is to be no higher than the Tucson rate. if the Citizen is correct in its statement of last Saturday"
 The statement referred to ip the Citizen is as follows:
 The new schedule aboiishes the Benson rate and establishes practj- eally the Tucson rate for all points covered in Cochise by the road. The new schedule runs as follows: First class, $2.1o; second class, q 80; third class, 31.60; feurth class, $1.45 and fifth class. $I.1S. Bisbee paid 37 cents more on each of the first four classes previous to the 24th instant. On the other sixth class there has been little change"
 Ii is claimed that the impression | prevailing in Tucson that the Deming 1, rate put into effect to Bisbee was the | work of the Santa Fe is incorrect. | The Santa Fe made no reduction in it's l Deming rate Whatever benefit Bis ! bee. Naco and Fairbank have Teceiy- | ed from the Deming rate must be credited solely to the coming Of the { Fl Paso & Southwestern.
 Bisbee wholesale merchants will no ! doubt be enabled to increase their trade in the territory tributary to this ! city by this cheaper freight rate.

LOCAL ACCOUNT OF CONDUCT
OF GOV. DAVIS
At Evening Shade Given by tho Her.
aid, Which Is Printed at That
Place.

The Sharp County Herald, which is
printed at Evening Shade, gives the
following account of the conduct o.
Gov. Davis on the occasion Of the gov
ernor's recent speech there:
At the beginning the governor in
suited the newspaper men, naming
and pointing at the editors he recog
nized and charging them with lying
about him. None Of the editors re-
piled, and the governor became more
vehement. He concentrated his at
tacks upon the Herald editor, who
finally arose and said:
Gov. Davis, the Herald has never
attacked you personally, or your pub
lie record"
But the govel nor refused to be mol
lifted.
Read your paper! Read your
paper!." he shouted.
"You very we'll know. governor,
responded the Herald man, that my
paper always supported you until you
attacked Jones. And since then the
paper has criticised you for that and
for nothing else.
The governor would not quiet down,
but, after making few other re-
marks, he again trained his lungs
upon the Herald man. calling him by
name and asserting that he would not
tell the truth for dollar a line. He
stood squarely in front of where the
Herald man was taking notes: he OF
fensively threw greenback on the
table, saying: II will give you $40 fol
the use of one column Of your paper
until the primary"
"You seem to think columns arr
cheap."
II will give you $780," cried the gov

Notwithstanding the fact that the

the opposition forces have not yet
throw up the sponge.
It can be stated authoratively that
Mr. J. L. Langston, Mr.. Furth'S most
active opponent for the position. has
wired the senate committee at Wash

confirmation of Mr.. Furth's appoint
ment by the senate.

PANDEMONIUM
BROKE LOOSE IN THE CITY FOR
A WHILE
Blaze at Sandhouse Of Cotton Belt
Shops Turned Loose Nearly
Every Whistle in Town.

A disastrous conflagration was mar
rowly averted at the Cotton Belt shops
Saturday night About II o'clock the
sand house located Near the cluster
of main buildings composing the Cot
ton Belt shops, was discovered on fire.
The discovery was the signal for a
pandemonium caused by the whistling
of every available engine in the yards
To the din was added the whistling OF
the oil mills and other industries in
the eastern part of the city. Great ex
citement was caused up town by the
shrieking of the whistles. Some
thought that another New Years nigh,
was here. and others concluded that
they we're delirious.
When the fire alarm was turned in
and the waterworks whistle announc
ed that a fire was in progress. al
doubts were removed, and many wen'
to the scene of the fire. A blaze
at the shops is always attended Will
much excitement and anxiety.
The fire department made a hasty
run to the shops where the round
house was found on fire. The re
sources Of the shops for fire ightint
had been brought to bear on the blaze
and before the city fire department
reached the scene the fire was we'll un
der control and it was unneccessar!
for the department to run the hose.
A disaster was narrowly averte>
by the prompt action Of employees O
the shops.

Robinson's Indebtedness to Brock

property to the value of $500 which
property was lease on the feed barn

of the hotel next door to the barn. \
