Fraud.-BrOther Of Ignatius Serving Years Sentence In New York

A dispatch from New York of re- cent date announces that Frank D Dudley had been arrested in that city last week, upon his arriv Il from Ari zona, and Is now confined in the Lud- low jail, being held on complaint of the Cochia X Sonora Mining Comp pany which charges, through one of it's off cers, $ H. Wilson, that Dudley agreed to sell that company seve. al mines, for which he received $500 on account and that he then arranged to trans fer the mines to another corporation
 Many people in Nogales remember Dudley, he having visited this place frequently during the past two years. He was always well supplied with
 money which he spent with a lavish hand and as a result he made many friends.
 He was sometime ago working few men on mining properties in Sonora and 1t was understood that Mir. Will son, of New York, was interested in the Dudley properties in Sonora. Sometime ago 1t was reported that there was trouble between Quaiey and Wilson; it has been stated that Will son and others in New York furnished Dudley with the money with which to operate in Sonora on an agreement that the properties down there should be secured for company controlled by Wilson and his New York asso- ciates. The story, as told, was to the effect that Dudley instead of securing the titles in the name of the Wilson company. had the property denounced in his individual name and that when demanded that the property be deeded to the company Dudley refused
 The Dudley brothers. Frank. Igna- tius. John and Charley, have every since their advent in Arizona, ap- parently been very busy keeping out of jail, not always with success, as evidenced by the following from the InternatIonal-Amer of recent date:
 The Qualeys have been mystery to mos5 people in Arizona, who know then- apparently, they always have money, but they are always in troub uble. Isnatius Dudley was convicted in Gra- han county of mutilating the books of the Ar rizona G Boston Mining con- pany, of which he was president and general manager. He was sentenced to serve six months in jail and pay a fine of S2OO. The jail sentence was commuted by Gov. Murphy, and the fine was paid. Ignatius Is now in the New York state prison where he was recently sent for one year for frauds committed in connection with the Horseshoe Mining company Several years ago John Dudley was on trial in New York fo- rascality in connection with a mining enterprise. Charley Dudley, 1t Is said, Is now on some min ing property in the state of Chihua- hua, Mexico

BOerS In Mexico.

 the best of spirits as slowly hut surely
 he Is realizing the mbitIon of his life
 He had the good news that Cen. Vil-
 joen had sailed from Cape Town on Nov with ten Boer families who are expected to arrive at the colony about 1 the 9th Of next month Henning 1 Van Aswegin, who is engaged to GeH.
 Snyman's daughter, is expected to
 arrive at the colony February next
 with ten more families. A brother of
 Gen. Shy man. also in South Africa, is selling out and is to arrive in April
 with still another ten families.
 When these all arrive, the new
 colony can be said to be successfully
 launched. In the mean tune Gen. Snyman and the few Boers who are l now at tine colony, are working hard
 to get things in shape for the coming of their countrymen, all q most valua- dle addition to thIs growing state.
 The Federal government has already
 done much to help these good people, and it will he greatly to the interest of gressive policy of the present govern
 ment will no doubt do much, for no better citizens can be gotten from any
 where than are these thrifty, indus trious Eoers. Besides, they become
 Mexican citizens immediately upon
 their arrival in this country. Gen. Snyman, himself, has already taken
 out his citizenship papers, and thus a thrifty colony of newly made Mexican citizens will soon be established on sound basis.-Chihuahua Enterprise.
