A libelous Article Answered,

Mr.. EDIroR:-My attention was
called to an article ia the Arizona
Arrow Of September 18th, but | paid
no attention to it, supposing, of
course, that the paper was irres possible.
However, have since been told that
the editor is man of great deal of
Importance, hence this reply. We
"outsiders" saw fit to come to King
man and look at prospects. We spent
week or more locking over the field
and went away satisfied; that was our
own business. We returned with dol
lar or two, and there is dollar or two
more where those came from. Paiu our
bills AS we went along and continued
to prospect our claims. That was our
own business.
We had some of the biggest mining
men in the country as visitors; on
what terms was also our own business.
As Mr.. Blakely wants some of the sin
side facts" | will say that each one of
those gentlemen urged US to allow him
to come; and, let me add, that ''fakes
and swindlers" are not showing their
property to men of this stamp.
As result of eheir presence here
the excitement started, which was not
our business, as we had nothing to do
with it. But even so, doubt if the
merchants or others of Kingman are
any the poorer for 1t.
Since we have been prospecting here,
the field has been filled with represen-
tatives of strong capital, including the
Guggenheims and others; and, to my
certain knowledge, there have been a
number OF properties sold. and there
mated, which would not have occurred
under conditions existing before we
arrived. Is this what Mr.. Blakely calls
giving Legitimate mining sharp set
back in mining circles?
Our stock, which is not for sale, is
owned by seven people. The par value
was placed at 1905, to emphasize the
fact, together with other reasons, that
II Is not stock jobbing proposition,
and, il Mr.. Blakely will produce ain-
gle share outside the original seven
holders, will present him with a
round trip and expenses to Boston and
introduce him to my brother fakes
aud swindlers," who will prove TO him
that it is unwise To jump at conclu-
sions.
1t may help the editor of the Arrow
tn sleep better nights if he knows that
the men who have put in their money,
are putting in their money aud will
continue 10 put Ia their money, are
perfectly happy.
There are lot of inside details of
the private business of our company.
Mr.. Editor, that | haven't time to go
into now; but daily bulletin will be
posted on the door Of the postotiice,
giving all these private points, so that
our brosdminded critics will be better
qualified To run our business for us.
In Boston, tSe Arrows uncalled for
attack would be considered libel. Out
here don't know what you call il, for
am tendertoot and not supposed to
know. However, defy the Arrow, or
any one else, tn show where we "out- !
side fakes and swiudlers" have Injured
a single person, property or commu
nifty. As a spacewriter, Mr. Blakely is
great; but be should get new string
TO his bow, bic arrow doesn't shoot
straight. CoURTESAY BAYLOR.

Harvard Graduate, Not Murderer.

graduate once accused Of numbering two
Boston women as the result of a mania,
Las at last secured complete viudieation.
In a deathbed confession, given to the
public by Sheriff Eairburn, George T.. o.
Perry. a mulatto, makes full confession
TO the murder Of the two women. Yes,
killed Clara Morton and Agnes Me-
Phee." declared Perry as he lay dying.
Thus. through the mulatto's final impulse
toward justice, Alan Mason is forever
cleared of suspicion of connection with
the dreadful crimes that stirred Boston
and all the country side last summer and
fall. Had the negro died with sealed lips
ii is probable that Mason would have
been suspected by thousands OF having
been the slayer Of the two young WON

charged with being the perpetrator of in
attacks upon women near
Boston and Cambridge, one attack having
resulted in the death Of Agnes McPhee

slavery and poygamy. annexed with
lot OF other things when we, retired
from Spain from her Pacific colonies il
1870, are now to be wiped out in the
Asiatic United States as they have been
in the United States Of North America.
That is the real purpose of the assign
ment of Gen. Leonard Wood 70 dirty in
the Philippines. In all the official refer
ences TO his new duties the impression
has been conveyed that he was to 20 into
the Moro country to ''clean il up" and
put things into a more wholeso ne civic
and hygienie condition, as he did in San
tiago after the close Of the Cuban war,
and 1t is further known that his ultimate
destiny is the supreme command in the
Philippines, which his friends hope he
will be able to make the stepping stone
TO the head of the army at home. But
Gen. Wood will not go TO the Philippines
by the most direct route. He will PASS
slowly through Europe and make OH. or
two stops by the way, even after he
reaches Asiatic waters. This is with a
view to picking up some information
and suggestions from European governors
of experience in such matters as to the
management Of polygamous ami slave
holding native people.

vorce suit brought by BGrdick against
his wife, was Killed Tuesday night by
dashing over steep precipiee in an au-
tomobile. His wife, who accompanied
him, was fatally injured and died the
following day.
In police and other circles interested
in the Burdick case It is believed that
Pencil deliberately committed suicide
and intended to Kill both his wife and
himself because he had been suspected
Of knowing who murdered Burdick.
Penneil and his wife At about 6 o'clock
were speeding in the automobile along
kensington avenue when they neared an
Old stone quarry that is close TO the
atreet. The quarry is about thirty feet
deep and has bottom Of loose, jagged
stone.
The machine was running at remarka-
hly fast speed and when near the quarry
suddenly swerved from the road and
dashed over the precipice, hurting PEN
pell TO instant cath on the rocks below
and inhicting mortal wounds on Mrs.
Pencil.
Mr. Pennell CT 'ried. 100000 insur-
ance on his life. ali of which, it is said
was made over to his wife, who clung
to him through all his troubles, forgave
him time and again for his alleged inds-
cretions with Mrs. Burdick and other
women, and had promised even after his
name had been dragged through the scan
dalous mire of the Burdicll investigation.
to stick to him.
