SION SIMMONS DEAD
4 Popular Young Man Answers the
 Final Summons.

Sion Simmons, better known locally as Jack Simmons. died yesterday morning at I2 90 o'clock at his ranch home north east of the city. Mir. Simmons was well
 known in Phoenix and was universally popular among his acquaintances. He came here first about six years ago. be-
 ing then afflicted with an affection of the lungs. For long time he was em- ployed by Hoadley, Turnbull & Co. and was very competent office man. He has not been actively engaged in busi
 ness. however, for some time, owing to failing health and the necessity Of living an outdoor life. For a long time he made his home with the family of Mir and Mrs. H. C. Yaeger of this city.
 Some time ago he went back to his home in Memphis. returning here again last fall. His mother for some years has visited Phoenix in the winter time and was at his bedside when he passed away. He was but @ years of age, and was born in Memphis, where his re-
 mains will be inferred. His mother left
 for that city on this mornings train | escorting the body. He also leaves brother and q sister in Memphis to mourn his untimely death. He was ever bright. cheerful and companionable person. even in his illness. and there are many beside his intimates who re
 gret the final summons to one whose capabilities and disposition were so
 suggestive Of a bright and prosperous future.

and the priest of the parish in which she resides sent to Ireland and pre- cured copies of the baptismal records frcm the church in that country which left no doubt as to the date of her birth.
 Mrs. McCarty is very deaf and it is almost impossible to have any conver- sation with her. She says she does not know why her life has been spared so long. as she is of no use to anyone. yet she apparently enjoys life and those with whom she lives try in every way to make her life pleasant. She enjoys her pipe and tobacco very much. To ali appearances she is likely to live num- Der O. years more. although. as she ex- presses it. she is willing to go when the good Lord calls.''

COL. McCORDs NOMINATION.
He Will Stay in Washington Until 1t
 Has Been Confirmed.

A telegram was received from Col onel McCord last night saying that he would not leave Washington for Phoe- nix until after the confirmation of his nomination for United States marshal. He had previously sent word that he would start home on Saturday, or as soon as possible after his name had been sent to the senate, as he appre- hended no obstacle to his confirma- ton. His change of plan was made on the advice of friends in this city. who appraised him yesterday that charges were to be lodged in the sen ate against him.
 The nature of the charges have not been made known. but 1t is understood that he is accused, among other things, ot having spoken disrespectfully of President Roosevelt after the nomina- ton of F. F. Daniels. The wires were kept warm yesterday by the friends as well as the enemies of Colonel Me Cord.
 Some doubt was expressed yesterday morning as to whether his name had been actually transmitted to the sen ate, notwithstanding the special and Associated Press teiegrams received by The Republican on Thursday night. IL was known that the senate had been in session only seventeen minutes by the clock on Thursday. ana tHat an or that time had been occupied in dis cussion of the Tillman McLaurin case It was, therefore. argued that the sem ate could not have had t7,r,e 10 receive the nomination.
 There could be no doubt that the nominations of both Colonel McCord and Major McClintock for postmaster were transmitted and received. The receiving was done by the clerk, who was not handicapped by participation in the Tillman- McLaurin controversy It is also the custom of the senate when it is in session to receive any message from the White House. how ever busy it may be. In seventeen min utes the senate could have very easily received not only two nominations. but in the same length of tI1Ise could have received q dray-load of nominations.
 In his telegram last night Colonel McCord directed the discontinuance Of that wing of the Arizona Gazette which has been issued at his earlier direction since the Arizona Gazette which he left when he went away was made a part of the merger.

CONDITION OF BUSINESS
Dun Takes Bright View of the Trade
Conditions.

New York. June 27-R. G. Dun & Co s
review of trade tomorrow win say:
Foreign markets were badly disarranged
by the sudden illness of the king and
there was much liquidation prior TO the
closing of the British exchanges from
Wednesday afternoon TO Monday. Domes-
tic financial conditions are exceptionally
satisfactory and trade is well maintained.
although low temperatures interfere with
the distribution OF midsummer special
ties, Mining operations have increased in
activity. especially in the iron and steel
industry and textile production, while the
constructive work on new buildings and
bridges is very heavy. Labor difficulties
have not improved In the anthracite re-
gion. but numerous settlements have been
effected elsewhere. Railway earnings thus
far reported for June exhibit an average
increase of &c per cent over last year and
III per cent over 1900.
Most of the blast furnaces that were
stopped by the scarcity OF anthracite coal
have resumed with coke of which the
ovens have established new records of
output, and shipments have been still
larger, owing 10 the stocks accumulated
during the car shortage. Eastern manu-
facturers of footwear report a larger vol
urne of contracts, mainly for delivery in
August and September.
Leather has accumulated and sou.e tan
neries are closed, but betting butts con
tinue in demand at full prices. More ac-
tivity occurred in cotton goods, although
at some concessions in prices. Wooden
goods have been taken more freely. es-
peciaIly the better qualities. and clothing
manufacturers are preparing for a large
fall trade Raw wool is in better request
at eastern markets. but the new clip is
held at premium that limits trade.
Agricultural prospects are far above the
average and rapid progress is made with
winter wheat harvesting. Delays have
been encountered from heavy rain. while
injury has occurred in the southwest
from drouth. but these adverse influences
are less extensive than usual. Vide diff
ferences between cash prices and next
crop options indicate the views of traders
The week brought little alteration in spot
quotations. light supplies holding al GER
calls fairly steady. Injury IN Texas has
partially offset the splendid outlook in
other cotton states, while the strong sta
tistical position together with liberal con-
sumption and covering of short contracts
at Liverpool combined to cause sharp
rise in opention prices and moderate
stiffening Of spot cotton, but the advance
was not maintained.
