A DAsTARpLY OUTRAGE.
E. M. AtherIy Captured, Marched Gu,
 of Town and Fired Upon.

E. NJ. Atherly. machinist in the employ of the Old Dominion Copper company alleges that criminal out rage was perpetrated aginst him at an early hour this morning His story, in brief is that he was called from bed at a quarter to o'clock, a. m., by man whose face he did not see, who told him that the big pump at the mine was out of order and that the old man" (meaning the master mcdaniel wanted him to go down and fix it. It was not unusual for him to be called in the night and he com piled with the request without quest ioning its correctness.
 He had reached the point where the creek crosses the county road below Ferguson's when two men, masked with handkerchiefs, appeared sudden ly and with revolvers leveled ordered him to halt, which he did. They then got behind him and ordered him to travel.
 He was marched down the road three miles, to a point in the canyon about mile below Stead's ranch, where a halt was made and Atherly's captors, taking a position in the shad- ow of a tree. ordered him to advance ten paces. He stepped the ten paces and then broke into a run, and as he did so the two men opened fire on him, firing about eight shots, one of which cut hole in his shirt under the left arm.
 After running a short distance and waiting until he thought 1t safe to venture back into the road, Atherly returned to the vicinity of Stead's ranch, where he camped with man who was on his way to Safford, and this morning rode with him to town.
 The only reason that MT. Atherly can assign for the dastardly act is that he had refused to joint the min eTs' union.
 The affair has excited a great deal of indignation in town.

This is due to the thougktfulness of the managa- ment. that the many sick throughout the town and in the hospital might not have their rest disturbed.

KiIIiCk.
(Ry the Associated Press.)

Washington, Aug. 8.-The United States

pany has appealed to the State and Navy
Departments here to prevent the cutting

prevent the cutting of the cable.

KNOX ON HIS MUSCLE

of Ladies.
(By the Associated Press.)

Oyster Bay, August S.-Attorney Gen.
eral Knox and Mrs Knox arrived here
today to be the guests of President and
Mrs. Roosevelt. -
To a representative of the Associated
Press Mr.. Knox confirmed the report
that he had had a personal difficulty
with party of men in Atlantic City last
Wednesday night.

unseemly and boisterous. They talked
loudly and their comments upon men,

sulting, to put it very mildly.

I was by the ladies, l could not resent

"Then 1 returned" continued Mr.
Knox, with a smile, "to see if the men
really were looking for me. 1 think
they were, for scarcely had 1 approach

Bright prospects in agricultural sec

in the future is mistaken, dealers every
where preparing for heavy fall trade,
while contracts for distant deliveries run
further into next year than is usual as
this date. Activity has been noteworthy

new records. Railway earnings are fully
sustained.
THE latest returns show an average
advance of 3.9 per cent over the CORE
spending time last year, and 21.S per cent
over 1900.
aside from the fuel scarcity and some
congestion of traffic the iron and steel
situation continues propitous. Conditions
are indicated by the number of orders
going out of the country which domestic
producers can not undertake. Thus far
the imports have had little influence on
domestic prices, except as to billets,
which are freely offered below the home
market level.
DRY goods buyers are coming into this
market to considerable extent, yet
without placing orders of any size. Cot
