 MURDER.

 Special to Review)

Douglas, July 2S.-A case which may require the representatives of two nations in its progress. and which may have to be adjusted in Washing ton, was brought up in Justice John sons court Sunday evening.
 Some three years ago Mexican woman was murdered in Clifton, Ari- Zamora. supposed to be her husband. A warrant has been out since the kill ing, and officers have been on the look out for the murderer ever since.
 Several weeks ago Al Kerr had a picture taken of a man named Za- mora who was working in Agua Prieta The picture was sent tp Clifton and a little girl claimed she thought the picture looked like the man who did the killing, but could not tell. She described the mur- derer as a big man, heavy set and Uf light complexion.
 Francisco Zamora came over to Douglas Saturday evening to make some purchases for his family. and was arrested by Date Graham. He was detained twenty-four hours await ing the arrival of an ofhcer fror Cliff ton. The officers did not arrive. and attorneys for Zamora, assisted by the Mexican consul and a number of prominent citizens of Mexico. protest ed against the man. who was Mexi- can citizen. being held in the United States longer than tho time required by law. and were also ready 10 prove that the man arrested )n suspicion was never in Clifton. The court dis missed the first warrant. but issued another in order to gain time for the arrival of the officer from Clifton.
 Deputy Sheriff John Parks arrived on the train late Sunday evening and went immediately to the jail. He was shown the prisoner. but could not identify him as the ran wanted, and stated that he though. the man wanted was of larger build and differ ent appearance.
 The attorneys for the defendant de- manded hearing. and Judge Johnson set the case for 10 o'clock Monday On Monday morning Judge Johnson. after hearing the arguments for the prisoner, committed him to Deputy Parks. and both left on the train for Clifton.
 The man arrested on suspicion and taken to Clifton is named Francisco Zamora. but does not answer the de scription furnished by the sherifis office in Solomonville, and the identi- hcation by the little girl of a small photograph which only gave the upper part of the man was not sufficient 70 hold him on the charge. The Mexi- can citizens who know Zamora say that he was never in the United States until few weeks ago, when he first came over from Agua Prieta. He has been employed in Agua Priera by the Camous in building adobe buildings, being a brick mason by trade. Previous to his coming to Agua Prieta he worked for the Cana nea Copper company, coming from Hermosillo and Santa Rosalia. The prisoner is man of some means. having something over s5.0OO of his own money in the Bank of Sonora The Camous and others offered to Judge Johnson any bond he might ask for, and the comisario of Agua Prieta gave his word that he would he personally responsible for Zamora and would deliver him whenever wanted, on presentation of the proper papers.
 In speaking of the case Senor Jose Sang. the Mexican stamp agent, said to Review reporter: q do not see how the American officers can be pos itive in this being the man wanted. and he had never been in the United States before a week or so ago, when he came over from Agua Prieta to buy some mason's tools and supplies for his home. I knew the man in Hermosillo several years ago, and never knew of him ever living or be. ing in Morenci or Clifton. We are satisfied that the officers in Clifton, where the murder was committed, will see at once they have arrested the wrong man, and will turn him loose. He is a hard-working man and has plenty of means in Hermo. sillo. He now has large contracts with the Camous and others to build several buildings in Agua Prieta, and wants to get back to his work"
 Attorneys Beumler and McNeil have been retained by the Mexican citizens to defend Zar,ora and vii handle the case. It is understood that if Zamora is found to be innocent claim for damages will be lojge1
 with the Mexican minister at Wash inp1on
