Tue Hon Gus. Williams. a mem Der
Of the assembly from this county, was
recently interviewed in Yuma in re-
gard TO his Investigation OF fees re-
cciyed by secretary StOddard through
the Incorporation Of companies in the
territory, and estimated the secretary's
income from that source at from $40.
900 TO $50 600 per year. MIR. Williams
was appointed a committee 10 investi-
gate the matter, the secretary claim
ing that the net returns had dropped
of during the past year 10 about SD
900. But notwithstanding Mr.. Viii
liams' statement, the committee 20
which the bill turning these fees
over to the territory was refer
red, made an adverse report. This
change was promised the people
ia the democratic platform, and
was also strongly urged by Governor
Brodic in his address to the
legislature. It j. decidedly the
most important bill now pending in
the legislature, but it has been killed
deader than mackarel by men
previously pledged to its support.
Even Colonel Wilson, who drafted the
platform, and upon it was elected to
congress, has spent much time in
Phoenix using his personal endeavOrs
to defeat the bill. Such conduct on
his part is simply inexplicable. He
has heretofore posed as Il great reform
era friend of the people-but in this
instance. at least, he is working for
the enrichment Of friend from fees
which should 90 into the territorial
treasury.

London, January 1o.-Each day seems to increase

English investors, who lost heavily yesterday by the
momentary panic in South African shares, do not
feel happier to find the canard about Mr.. Chamber

correspondent in New York says proves TO be due to
the failure OF the kasers plan conceived as far back
1898 to ALLEVIATE England and the United States
The Times correspondent says that Ambassador FIo

was pleasing TO the kaiser and led the kaiser and
the German government into acts which weakened
instead of strengthened German and American cor

statue which was Codly received and misstatements
regarding English action during the Spanish.Amer-
