 The bill introduced by Councilman Ashurst providing for S10 fee to be paid into the territorial treasury by every corporation formed in Arizona is being criticised as a measure ip- spired by Secretary Stcddard and ir- tended to protect that gentleman against the threatened loss of the fat fees coming to him through the fo.I:,- ing of new corporations in the terri tory The're is no objection to the 0ill and it ought to pass, but it should not be accepted as a substitute for Mir Cowan's bill to transfer the big corporation fees from Secretary Stod dards private procket to the territor- ial treasury till. The democratic platform promised a law which would trim down the fees of the secretary of the territory, place that officer OF salary and the fat corporation fees in the treasury. Both are meritorious measures.

SKATER KILLS A MEXICAN

Jesus Lopez, an unruiy Mexican, who has served time in the city jail, was killed yesterday morning at about g o'clock at Glance Siding by William Staffer, who is section foreman on the Fl Paso and Southwestern at that point.
 Justice Brown and Constable Ca sad were notified by Douglas officers of the killing, and went to Glance in a buggy. A coroner's jury was sum- moned which found from the evidence that Staffer was justified in killing the Mexican.
 Lopez was killed after a night spent in dissipation with men employed on the section gang. He came toward Staffer as if to do him injury, and the latter shot and killed him instantly with a Winchester rife. The bullet entered the left eye of the Mexican and came out the back of his head. He never moved from his tracks
 Last night the details of the tragedy were learned from those who went to the scene of the shooting. It appears that Staffer was forced to shoot in self-deense. as the Mexican was com ing toward him with his hands in a pants pocket. This led Staffer to be- lieve that the hand held either a knife or a gun.
 Lopex was not employed on the section, but came there Thursday night from the silica quarry to spend the night in dissipation with Mexi- can friends. His reputation is gen. erally bad. and local officers state
Bisbee daily review., 1903-02-28

that he has several times given trou- be here.
 During Thursday night Staffer told Lopez to leave the place, and went so far as to fire two shots over his head for the purpose of soaring him away. It did not have the desired effect, and when Staffer went to the section house to call his men, he found Lopez there very much under the influence of liquor.
 Stsffer told the Mexican to leave, and this he refused to do. declar. ing that he was not afraid of the fore man. Staffer then knocked him down and told him that he had better leave i the place. Lopez ran away mutter ] ing that he would return armed, and prepared to put up fight. The Mexican ran down the railroad track about a quarter of a mile and Staffer thought that he would have no more trouble with him. Lopez instead of continuing on down the 1 track turned and came back to where Staffer was standing It was then that Staffer fired the fatal bullet.
 The section foreman went to Doug. las, and while on the train was plac- ed under arrest by Ranger Lieuten- ant John Foster. He was taken to Douglas, and later brought back to Glance. where he was placed under arrest by Constable Casad.
 Justice Brown secured the coro- ner's jury at the Copper Glance mine. The inquest brought out nothing more than as already stated. and there was nothing 10 show that Statfer was not justified ir the extreme step he took.

 Their visit to the City of Mexico caused a report there that the plague had reached that city. they say. and for a time there was great excitement in certain quarters It all happened in this way:

Special to Review.)

Especial to ReYleW.)
 Phoenix, Feb. 27.-The legislative hopper continues to ill up. New bills are being piled into it every day, but unless the legislators make a material change in their manner of doing busi- ness, many proposed measures will never get through. The house has passed many measures and stacked them up in front of the council. Some of the more important measures were sent to the council from the house early in the session, since which time they have received no further atten- tion than that Of being referred t0 some council The eight-hour law is still held back, though its friends claim it will be passed in due time.
 Two bills were passed in the house yesterday. One is a bill amending the divorce laws and the other amend ing the law providing for the pay ment of bounties for the killing of wild animals. In the course of the discussion of this measure both MT. St Charles and Mir. Marian int-pel- lated the house on the subject of lobo wolves, for the scalps of which a bounty of s15 is to be paid. The bill removes coyotes from the list of ani. mals which may hereafter be killed with profit Both Messrs. Marian and St. Charles wanted to know the differ ence between a lobo and a coyote They were told that the difference was in the size Then how, they asked, could a small lobo be detected from a large coyote. and they ex pressed an opinion that the passage of the bill into law would result ir the bringing of the skins of smaller class of lobos before boards of super visors for redemption.

It was believed the house would refuse to accept the amend ments and send it back to the council in something like it's original form at which juncture there would be s good opportunity of passing it in the upper house. The bill with the council amendments, was precipitated in the house, however, and passed like a whirlwind before the senatorial ma chinery was fairly set in motion.
 The laboring men who have been here for the past ten days working for the bill, express themselves well satisfied tonight. Although they did not receive all they asked for. they argue that the laboring men of this territory have been recognized some thing for which they have long con tended.

 goes or through it's brief sessions in launching other new bills, of which
 seven were precipitated yesterday as i follows: By MT. Collins. to create a i legal standard of weights and meas
 ures; by Mr. Cowan, 10 correct the errors of the code; by Mir. Bernard, to amend the law with respect to the administration of estates; by MT. O'Connell, to extend the provisions of paragraph 3250 re, ating to the records MT. Page, for the relief of the Arizona
 Gazette, making an appropriation for

 guardians who are unfit to have
 charge of them; by MT. Rowe, provid- ing for a franchise tax of s10 to be
 paid for a franchise tax of s10 to be paid into the territorial treasury by corporations hereafter to be formed in this territory. This is copy of the ! bill introduced into the council the day before by Mr- Ashurst.
 There was little tilt in the coun- i cil. In the course of business the bill ! to regulate the practice of medicine
 was called up. Mir Ashurst moved
 that it be considered engrossed and go to a third reading. Mir Corbett
 moved that the further consideration
 of it be postponed until today on ;:c- count of tie absence of MT. Packard ! by reason of illness. Here was a | chance for an exhibition of senatorial courtesy. Mr. Ashurst, however
 pressed his motion for immediate con sideration in spite of the assurance by Judgr kibbey that he had word from Mr. Packard stating that he was unable to be present. The motior was lost by a vote of to 5. So fal
 as the medical bill was concerned tho vote was not significant, but it wal

 After this the council adjourned un til 3 o'clock when it was expected
 that something would break loose Nobody knew quite what it would be

 Topeka, kas., Feb. 27.-There will be no further negotiations between the Santa Fe and it's conductors and trainmen's representatives regarding an increase of wages. According to a member of the trainmen's committee a final conference was held today.
 All that remains for the road to do is to either accept or reject the propo- sition made by it's employees. It is un- derstood that no compromise was agreed upon, and that the matter now stands practically the same as when the conferences commenced. The em ployes demanded 20 per cent in crease and certain other concessions.
