HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS
Maxim Will Build
Machines That Fly

London, Dec. 5.-Sir Hiram Maxim
Of the firm of Vickers Sons & Maxim
will sail soon for the United States,
where he intends to remain for about
two years, primarily to try by breath.
ing his native air the is a native of
Maine) to cure a troublesome throat
complaint. the result of an attack Of
bronchitis and laryngitis sin months
ago.
The secondary object OF his visit is
to prosecute experiments with the
view to building flying machine. He
contemplates making an experiment.
ing ground in Connecticut or on Long
Island.
Sir Hiram believes that the era of
successful flying machines, with
which he has tried many experiments
is very near. although much work will
be necessary before free high flight is
practicable. He adheres to his often
expressed view that the solution OF
the problem will not be found in light
er-than-air machines. He says that a
majority of the present experimenters
numbering about a hundred, are work
ing on the balloon theory. but he is
convinced that inventors have come to
the end of their tether In that direc
tion. He does not think that any one
will do better than Santos-D Dumont
who Is entitled to every credit. He
has done much better than the
French Government experts under Col
Renard and his brother, Major Re
nard.
A successful machine, Sir Hiram
maintains. must travel fast-at speed
indeed. which would tear any balloon
to pieces. The minimum speed OF q
true flying machine will have to be
forty-two miles an hour and the max
imum 100 miles. The average speed
probably will have TO be that of an ex
press train. Sir Hiram adds that If he
does not build a machine himself he
may become consulting engineer or
the subject at the st. Louis exhibition
although II he competes for the prizes
offered by the exhibition management
II is obvious that he will not accept an
Official position.

CHEAPER IRON PRICES.

Pittsburg, PA cheapening in iron
and steel products seems inevitable.
Consumers and contractors all agree
that prices are too high. While many
mills boast OF having their order books
filled six months ahead, which is true
In isolated cases, there are no new or.
ders coming In. and mill managers are
becoming worried.
Orders on books means nothing ac.
cording to past history. There is no
method known whereby a buyer can
be compelled to accept and pay for ma.
terial II he wishes to countermand an
order. This is frequently done by con.
sumers who note that prices are de.
clining.
When the Carnegie Steel Co. was the
giant of the steel industry u method
of conclliation was adopted by the offi.
cials to keep customers from cancel.
ling orders. A sliding scale of prices
was used so that the customer who
had ordered while prices were high
could always secure the product at the
prevailing price at the time of deliv,
cry, which kept him from cancelling
the order. This only held good where
prices declined. as the customer in
varlably kept the firm to an agree,
ment If the prices went up in the inter,
im between the placing of the order
and delivery.

Report Was Untrue.

A telegram was received here to-
day from E. R. Jefferds Of Progreso,
stating that there was no truth in
the report of the death Of Mrs JET
ferd+, as published Saturday, she
being alive and well at her home
there. 1t is difficult to understand
how such an alarming report
could be circulated, without any
foundation whatever. However, The
HERALD rejoiees most heartily with
the many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jefferds in learning that she is still
in the midst of her loved ones alive
and we'll, and sincerely hopes that
she NAV so continue until she at
tains far more than the allotted
three score and ten. The mistake is
very sincerely regretted, but The
HERALD accepted it from the most
reliable persons, who were them
selves without doubt misinformed,
and it is hoped it may be pardoned.

and admitted his guilt. He is in poor physical health, which impressed the jury to some extent. The most of his answers were evasive and not satis- factory to the court or jury. Had he teen more to the point in his answers lighter sentence would probably have been imposed.
 DeaverauX asked permission to speak and in a trembling and broken voice repeated substantially what he stated in his interview previously pub lished.
 He said that it had been arranged for some one else to do the work, but that he weakened at the last moment and that he (Hailey) was then induc- ed to undertake the job He was tempted by the large amount the safe was said to contain, which. according tO reports, was $2,20o. He was to have half. .4s,s He was very i'll at the time and , scarcely able to be about, but he was sadly in need of money and this tempt ed him.
 He claimed that he was the victim of plot. However, he implicated no one and in reply to pressing questions ssve vague and evasive answers, and said he did not know the men by name but only by sight. He stated that he wanted the money to pay his expenses home, as he had just heard that his father had died
 He denied the diamond robbery at Bisbee, and said that he was the vic tim of circumstances. He also denied that he had been implicated in other burglaries, but cannot explain his knowledge of burglars tools.

DEAvERAUXISSENTENCED

The courts at Fl Paso have accom- plished what the courts in this county failed to do, though two attempts were made. William Deaveraux has been sentenced to serve three years in the penitentiary in Texas.
 Deayeraux, who was sentenced un- der the name of Hailey, was caught in the act of blowing open @ safe in Fl Paso a short time ago. When arrest ed he was boring a hole in the safe for the purpose of putting in a charge of dynamite.
 This criminal gained notoriety here something over a year ago by being arrested for stealing several thou sand dollars worth of diamonds from Blewett's store. where they had been left by Ben Crawford He was arrest ed and tried twice for the crime, though not convicted.
 Deaveraux had a partner, who was sentenced to serve a term of years in the penitentiary for complicity. He is now at Yuma serving the time. The diamonds stolen are supposed to be cached at some point near El Paso. The officers there have made diligent searches, but have never been able to locate the missing stones.
 It took the Fl Paso jury in the de- fendant's case several hours to make up its mind how many years he should serve, though he entered a plea of guilty when charged with the attempt ed burglary. Some of the jurors thought that two years were enough and others wanted to give him twelve. Finally a compromise was made on three years.
 Deaveraux was placed on the stand

ALLEGES THAT
 CLAIM IS HIS
c. s. CROCKETT BRINGS ACTION
 IN DISTRICT COURT
Claims to Own Gold Standard, One of the Claims Recently Bonded to
 Mitchell Development Company

the Claims Hecehtly Bohoed 10
 Mitchell Development Company
 G. S. Crockett, the mining broker from Naco. has brought suit against several parties, which may result in hanging up big mining deal recently made near Solomon Springs. He al- leges that a claim bonded to the Nit chell Development company is his.
 The defendants to the suit live in Arizona and Michigan, and are as fol- lows: J. c. Pritchard, F. c. Broadbeck, E. c. Bush, B. T. Shepard and ". A. Bateman.
 | Tn the papers filed at Tombstone the plaintiff alleges that he is the rightfui owner of the Gold Standard claim, which is included in the group of claims bonded to the Mitchell com pany. He says that previous to the the time it was claimed by the defend ants he posted location notices.
 Crockett was in the city few days ago, and at that time mentioned that the suit was to be filed. Speaking about the matter he said:
 | T located this claim in good faith before the deal with the Mitchell com pany was made. I posted proper mo- tices, but in spite of this the men, who bonded the claims to the com pany took it along with the rest" | MT. Crockett stated that the claim was worth nearly s10.0O0 to him and that he will not give it up without a hard legal fight. He stated positively that his location papers are all cor rect, and that there is little or no ex- cuse for the action of the defendants. The Mitchell company now has force of men at work doing work on the claims. Reports from the proper ty indicate that it will soon be & rich producer. Some of the ore displayed while the purchase was being made was taken from the Gold Standard claim, which Crockett claims to own.
 h his complaint the plaintiff asks for judgment for cost of suit and req sonable attorney fees. The case will probably be called at the usual June term. The summons to be served in the case were furnished to the sherin's office this afternoon and will be serv- ed within few days.
