NO TRACE
 OF BOLD ROBBER
DOUGLAS OFFICERS HAVE NOT
CAUGHT LONE HIGHWAYMAN
Is Thought to Have Made His Way
 Into Mexico with Prospectors- Evidently Understood Business

The officers at Douglas have been unable thus far to find any trace of the lone hghwayman, who entered the Abbey saloon Sunday night, and rob bed the gambling tables of s495.
 Search for this clever thief is being made in Sonora, it being thought that he made his way to the gold fields at Fl Tigre with number of prospectors who left Douglas early Monday morn ing.
 The proprietor of the Abbey saloon stated last night over the telephone that nothing is known of the thief af- ter he left the rear door of the saloon. No one can be found who saw him either enter or leave the place.
 At first it was thought that the bold robber had some assistance from the outside, where a buggy was wait ing to carry him away. This theory has now been abandoned for the req son that no fresh tracks were found there shortly after the robbery. The people of Douglas are very much excited over the affair, and have barred all their windows and fitted the doors with stronger locks. They fear that the city is being visited by an organized gang of crooks and hold up men, who will not leave without more swag.
 The best description that can be given of the highwayman is that he is above the average in height, and is sandy complexioned. He was fairly we'll proportioned, and carried himself with an easy grace, bespeaking life of idleness.
 Officers now believe that the thiei was no ordinary tramp, and that he is skilled in the profession of robbery He had entered the saloon and com manded those inside to lift their hands ] before they realized what was happen ing.

Branch from Cochise to Naco-
 Arrangement Will Soon be Known
 Within the next thirty days We will hear of a traffic arrangement between the Southern Pacific and El Paso and Southwestern that will be important to this section" said a merchant yes terday.
 The merchant went on to say that these two roads will not for some time to come appear on terms of an- tagonism. The arrangement they are about to make will last for some per iod
 T was told by high official of the ! Southern Pacific in Los Angeles that the understanding between the two roads will be so thorough that bills of lading for freight will be honored by both roads," he continued
 i This will be carried into the pas 1 senger department. Passengers com ing west or going east on the Southern Pacific will be granted the privilege of riding over the Fl Paso and South western from Fl Paso to Benson.
 'I have no doubt that a truce has been declared between the two roads, and that they will in future work on amicable terms. This agreement has been formed for reasons that are known best to the companies. One al ready has immense interests in this section, and the other has been Threatening tO come in ["
 One of the effects of this arrange ment will be to prevent the building of the Southern Pacific branch from Cochise to Naco. With the Southern Pacific at liberty to reach all the points over the Fl Paso and South western that they would reach by building the branch, there is no need of their going to the big expense of building for themselves.
 It was only short time ago that the agents of the Fl Paso and South western were instructed by the com pany to bill all freight over the South ern Pacific wherever possible. This only confirms the reported traffic and freight arrangement.
 Under this condition of affairs freight to Bisbee will be consigned over the Southern Pacific to either Benson or El Paso, and brought here as if it was running over but one line.

 One of the quickest insurance set dement's on record was made in Doug las last week. The Hotel Roy caught fire from a furnace of one of the tin ners at work and started bad fire The fire was put out, loss appraised and settled in the short space of forty-five minutes. E. R. Pirtle was the insur- ance agent who looked after the busi- ness for Captain Nicoli, owner of the Roy hotel
 The employees of the Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad at Douglas and Bisbee to show their high esteem of their former superintendent. R. C. Morgan, have sent him a beautiful dia mond ring. The stone which was purchased of Tiffany & Co. of New York, at cost of s325. It is one oI the prettiest stones ever seen in this section of the country. George liar diker forwarded the ring Saturday and MT. Morgan will be justly proud of the | token when he gets it.
 A large amount of real estate chang ! hands in Douglas last week, anC there are several large sales on the { tapis at this time Brick building i: hindered at the present time on ac count of the several dealers not being able to supply the demand for brick ] for building purposes.
