were you on the night of the 16th of Nay" What do you want to know for?" answered the wounded man.
 Several questions of like nature were put to the wounded man, to all of which he gave eyasive replies. He also claimed to be 6 stranger in Doug las, but when he was shot he claims to have exclaimed, For Gods sake. Date, don't murder me" This shows that he at least knew Officer Graham.
 Mir. LeRoy. a business man. also gave positive evidence. stating that he fully identified the man, saying that the dead man wore the same suit of clothes and the same hat that he wore on the night that Vaughn was killed and Graham wounded.

The Copper Glance.

The work of installing the new ma chinery at the Copper Glance Is being pushed rapidly, and the vicinity of the mine Is the scene of bustling activity. The officials of this company have re- gretted the delay in receiving their ma chinery. but this delay has been nn- avoidable, and now that the big pumps and other equipment have been re- ceived. no time will be lost in clearing the mine of water and recommending sinking operations. which were neces- sarily discontinued some time in Feb ruary last. During the past few months trading in Copper Glance shares have been inactive, but the re- sumption of development work will probably cause this stock to once more attract the attention of the traders.

VAUGHN'S MURDERER
CIRCUMSTANCES ALL POINT TO SMITH, WHO WAS KILLED
 BY DATE GRAHAM.
Charles Overlook, of Douglas, Gives Some Additional information Bear ing on the Identity of the Dead Man.

This morning at 10 o'clock the pre- liminary examination of Date Graham will take place at Douglas. At this examination the man Richardson will be examined; also Frank Ramsey. It will also be learned whether the man killed was working in Wilcox at the time of the Vaughn murder
 A reporter of The Review inter- viewed Mir. Charles Overlook and Mir. Tom White. of Douglas. last evening, to ascertain from them how the feeling of the people of Douglas was. and whether there was any feeling that a mistake had been made in the killing of Smith.
 Mir. Overlook WAS emphatic in the statement that no mistake had been made. He said "The coroner's jury was composed of the best citizens of Douglas, and they listened attentively to the evidence and carefully consid- cred it before rendering verdict; and when they did so, they were positive from the evidence given, that Dayton Graham had shot the right man"
 MT Overlook stated further that Frank Ramsey. a milkman who resides about four miles from Douglas, had identified the dead man as a man who had gone to work for him a few days after the killing Of Vaughn. Ramsey stated that several times he had asked Smith to go to Douglas upon an erraDd. but that he had always declined, say ing that he was afraid to go to Doug las. and giving as his reason, that he had broken out of the Cananea jail a short time before. and was afraid that if he went to Douglas he would be de- coyed across the line and taken back to jail.
 During the time the deceased was in the hospital, he was asked several questions by Dr. Hickman. as follows Did you kill Vaughn?" To this Smith would make no answer Where

 For two or three weeks A L. Morris has been around Bisbee, soliciting stock in a company which it was pro Eposed should own and publish a week. ly mining journal in this city He sought subscriptions for stock on a cash payment of 10 per cent, the bal ance to be subject to call.
 He soon found persons who were willing to take a chance, and quite a few dollars came into his hands. These he soon parted with in exchange for booze and billiards.
 To give his enterprise tone he had letter heads and cards printed bearing the names of the officers of the com pany. as follows: E. J. Flannigar, editor; W. R. Humphries. general manager. and A. L. Morris, managing editor. To those who had subscribed, Mir Morris stated that there was some s5 200 in the bank, and that W. c. Greene had subscribed for s2,tJ0 worth of stock. He also stated that it was his intention to leave yesterday morning for San Francisco, to buy a s5 900 plant Some of those who have subscribed felt little uneasy, so they called upon Messrs. Flannigan, Mor- row and Humphries. to see how mat ters stood. These gentlemen dis avowed any connection with the pro- posed paper. but Messrs. Morrow and HumphTies thought it best to investi- gate affairs. 50 they sent for Mir. Nor ris yesterday and demanded to know who his stockholders were, and he fur nished the following list
 W. l.. Hargrove, w L. Morrow. Pete Mccoy. J. E. Prenty. J G. Cowan. F. E. Johnson. Herman 6 Hewitt J. B Broaddus. Dr. Hart. c. NJ. Henkel. William William Hughes. ]. o. Bigelow. A. s. Barker.

B Dunham ". A. Bateman. F. J. Flannigan and NJ J. Brophr.
 According to his statement these people had subscribed altogether for 1.S50 shares of stock, and about s120 had been collected on the stock This amount, Morris said. was in the bank but when Messrs. HumUhrfes and Nor row called al the bank they found that the sum Of Morris deposits amounted to one doi'a- It was also lear7ed bv these gentlemen that in two ipsta7ceg where he had received s19 sN srS s12.00 as part payment of stook he had entered the sums as 8 No and s2-50.
