ROMANCE IN COLORS
Recalled by the Death of Prospector
 Mack Last Week.

In the story in The Republican the other day of the inquest concerning the death of I. D. Mack. the old pros pector whose body found near Peoria it was mentioned that his identity was discovered by letter which had been addressed by him to Mrs. Fanny Pogue of Tucson, in which he described visit to one of her mining properties in the neighbor hood of Walnut Grove. He also sug- gested in the letter that she contribute to prospecting enterprise on which he was about to set out, and accom- pany him.
 It was also mentioned in the story that Mrs. Pogue was a colored woman who had been successfully engaged in mining in different parts of the terri tory for several years. Not long ago she sold a property in the southern part of the territory for $30,000. but that was only one of many sales of prospects she has made within the last dozen years.
 How she got the name of Pogue is an interesting story. About seven years ago there was a young man in Tucson by the name of Dave Pogue. He was of good family had hand
 
 been engaged in mining in 8 small way and was thrown in contact with the colOred woman. lie lived with her in her various mining camps and became so much enamored O; her that when they Were in Tucson he openly lived with her. utterly negleoting his family.
 At last he was arrested for a viola tiCn of the Edmunds act. His citations with the colored woman were SO open and notorious that there seemed to be no way tO avoid conviction. But in order to save himself and tC pave the way for a marriage to the colored woman he resorted to an extraordinary defense.
 Pogues' mother was q Mexican wom- an. He swore though that she was a Maya Indian. thus endeavoring to show that he was not of pure Caucas- ian blood and that his marriage with his white wife was therefore void. That testimony reused the anger of Pogue's father to the highest pitch and he went to pains to prove that it was lie. One of the witnesses | subpoenaed to disprove it was an uncle of Pogue's, having married a sister or his mother. and one of the most prominent residents of the terri | tory in business and a political way. His wife had been dead a great many years and he had married and was anxious that the fact of his first mar | riaSe should be forgotten. He was | brought into court sweating blood and 1 begged that he might not be put on | the stand. It was finally agreed that | if sufficient testimony to impeach Pogue could be produced without his, | he would be shielded. It was not hard to prove that the mother of Pogue was not a Maya and he was convicted.
 But before sentence was passed upon 1 him he was arrested at the instance 1 of his father on charge of perjury, was convicted and was sentenced to Yuma for three years. On his release from the penitentiary he and the coolred woman went to Mexico and | were married.

By c. W. Lee 6 Go.
 New Orleans, June 17.-First prices re- corded in the English market this morn- ing were a surprise to both those bulish- ly and bearishly inclined. Instead of a decline, which was only reasonable to expect, in sympathy with the downward course of values on this side yesterday an advance of 10 to 12 points was estab- lished on the summer positions. while late options showed a comparative weak ness and were lowered some to points spots off points. Early cables reported that operations were mainly for Alexan- dria, the principal business being ex- changing near months for distant, sell ing September October and buying Oeto- ber-November. The first improvement scored in the local market was to the ex- tent to to points. Prices receded im- mediately after the opening on more fa- vorable weather prospect in the belt which tended to encourage further realiz- ing by the long interest Under this pressure prices were lowered some 13 points under yNterday's closing figures. After the extreme decline here prices ral- lied some points during the afternoon session, but on the slight change of front there was renewed selling to secure profits and probably to go short
 The southern spot markets continue very steady In face of the decline of con- tracts, which took the form of a de- pressed tendency today. The marking down of spots in the foreign markets was a feature of the day.

vious backwardness. 1t seems to be req sonable to suppose that the crop stands a poor show of turning out large, no matter how favorable the weather may be for the remainder of the season.
 Higher temperatures prevailed in the south today and the rainfall was of little consequence.
 Shorts continue to display nervousness and good many who sold yesterday on the theory that the rise had eliminated were buying back in haste this morning
 Receipts are on a small scale and the movement indicates that the present crop will scarcely reach 1t,ono,00O bales even bears conoeding this fact. August showed a good deal of strength after the opening but the new crop months weakened to last nights figures and the trading as- sumed small proportions Cables were firm at 1s points higher for the old crop and lower for the new crop.
