PRESIDENT MURPHY AND PARTY
Concerning the Phoenix and Eastern
 As to the Subject Of Reservoir

President F. Ii. Murphy of the $. F., P. 6 F., arrived in Phoenix yesterday afternoon with d party of railroad of ficials and friends from Chicago. They will remain in the city until tomorrow morning. Mr. Murphy was seen at the Hotel Adams last night by a Re publican reporter, and it was sug- gested to him that The Republican s adVices are that there is great activity in mining development in the mineral districts of Pinal county in expecta- tion of the early construction of tine Phoenix 6 Eastern railroad, and in view of the great importance of the projected line to the Salt River valley there is a general anxiety locally to know when construction will begin. MT. Murphy replied that the neces- sary preliminary work is being pushed as rapidly as possible. There is d large corps of engineers in the field. making the permanent location of the line, and he thought that by the middle of next month enough work of a substantial nature would be under way to leave no doubt that the enterprise is being han dled with all the earnestncss possible. He added, that at an early day op- portunity would be afforded the people along the proposed road to show
 
 acting in securing a right of way. Mir. Murphy was told that q runloT was in circulation on the streets last evening that he would meet the water storage commission today for the pur- pose of submitting a plan whereby q reservoir could be assured. He replied that the report was not exactly cor rect; that he had been invited to meet the commission today at 10 o'clock, lI d. 1-a d plan" or scheme of his own, and had no interest in any reservoir pro- ject beyond a natural desire to see the community made prosperous. He said he had some well defined ideas, how ever. as to the most practicable means of obtaining a reservoir. and he thought it an exceedingly simple prob lem to work out, if the people were really anxious to have storage.
 Among the members Of the party were: Mir. and Mrs. Murry Nelson of Chicago. the parents of Mrs. Walter Eairbank, wife of the secretary and treasurer of the company. MT and Mrs. Nelson have been visiting their daughter for several weeks. They will spend a few days in Phoenix, and re- turning to Prescott, will go on to the coast. They will perhaps stop in Ari- zona on their way east.
 MT. Nelson is a prominent member of the Chicago Commercial club, and was one of q very large number of the club who visited Phoenix about year ago. as guests of President Ripley of the Santa F-e route. For several yc1rs he has taken a great interest in Ari- zona. and for some time before com ing to Phoenix this time had been interested in the study of irrisa tion. lie has been especially interested in Prescott. and has lent his support to the movement for the rehabilitation OF Fort Whippie.
 The other members of the party were a.r. and Mrs Tairb&nl-. Nessrs. ". 4. Drake and J. Ii. Emmcrt.

 When the war broke out he returned to the service, and. having passed through a siege cf yellow fever. was put in command If the second i'm -nunes. He served in Cuba through the war. and when there was no other urgent military duty for him to perform he returned to the mining business Not long ago Che had not been heard Of in military circles for so long) a re- port was spread abroad that he was in south Africa fighting on the side of the iicers. The report was published in so reliable 9 journal as the New York ssan. But tha; was one of the things seen in tTe Sun that is not so, for all the time -,ir. Hood was in Arizona engaged in the development of the Gladstone.

 You certainly don't mean to tell ms you don't know who the governor or your own state ;s?' replied the aston ished man. Think a moment longer
 I am sorry, sir. but l really don't know answered the boy.

A DAsTARDLY OUTRAGE
E. M. Atherly Marched Out of Globe
 and Shot at.

r.. M. Atherly. q machinist in the em- ploy of the Old Dominion Copper com pany alleges that criminal outrage was perpetrated against him at an early hour Thursday morning His story. as told in the Globe Silver Belt. Is that he was called from bed at c quarter to 2 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 mechanic) wanted him 10 go down and fix it. It was not unusual for him to be called In the night, and he complied with the request without questioning it's cor reCtness.
 He had reached the point where the creek crosses the county road below Ferguson's. when two men. masked with handkerchiefs, appeared suddenly and with revolVers leveled ordered him 10 halt. which he did. They then got behind him and ordered him to travel.
 He was marched down the road three miles, to q point in the canyon about mile below Stead's ranch, where a halt was made. and Atherly's captors, taking position in the shadow of q tree, ordered him to advance ten paces. He stepped the ten paces and then broke into a run, and as he did SO the men opened fire on him, firing about eight shots, one of which cut a hole in his shirt under the left arm.
 After running a short distance, and waiting until he thought it safe to venture back into the road, Atherly re- turned to the vicinity of Stead's ranch, where he camped with man who was on his way to Stafford, and Friday morning rode with hipl into town.
 The only reason that Mir. Atherly can assign for the dastardly act is that he had refused to join the miners union. The affair has created a great deal of indignation in town.

Mines and Minerals ef Arizona
w. c. Greene's Latest Acquisition in
 Sonora.
A $2O,OO0,OOO MINE

About a year ago R. Rocks, who IS engaged in business at Cos. Sonora, was prospecting in the country about thirty five miles northeast of there. He dis covered a ledge three to four feet wide, cropping up nearly three feet high and extending across the country several miles. The ore showed it was rich. ana on having it assayed it gave a result of over S2. GOO to the ton in gold and silver. But the fates had decreed that he should not have this immense wealth Mir. Brooks made inquiries concerning the ownership of the land on wEfch the ledge is situated, and became convinced that it was on a concession owned by Colonel Garcia. Considering it useless to approach Garcia, and not daring to make known his tremendous find, for fear of losing it, he said nothing of it. He determined to try a waiting game in the hope that Garcia would releasa his hold on the concession. when he would locate it. This is where MT. Brooks made the mistake of his life.
 Some other parties wandered into the same country on a prospecting trip. They discovered the same ledge. for it was so large it could not be covered up These parties also saw that the ore was CNCeeuiHSly lICn. l ney diSO Hldue IT. quiries as to the ownership of the ground, and found out that it was claimed by Colonel Garcia. But they did not stop here. They took samples Of the ore. went to Cananea and inter viewed w C. Greene, that modern Midas, at whose touch everything seems to turn to gold. Mir. Greene ad- vanced the money to make inquiries concerning Colonel Garcia's concession. The inquiry disclosed the fact that Garcia had TO valid claims to the ground. His concession had lapsed or had never been recorded. Acting upon this information the last discoverers lost no time in denouncing the ledge. Mir. Greene sent an expert to examine it, and as a result of his examination he makes the remarkable statement that there is 2O,OOO.OOO worth of ore in sight-on top of the ground.
 The men who located the ledge are James Taylor, A. C. Riordan, James Suits and MT. Sturges. Last week MT. Greene purchased the property for $250, 600. making a first payment of S50,- 000, although at last accounts Mir. Riordan had not made up his mind whether he would sell.-Douglas Inter- national.
