CANADIAN PACIFIC \
 WANTED TO GAIN TIME
It Led the Strikers Into Hope of a
 Settlement.

Vancouver, B. C., March 9.-Al- though it seemed probable on Sunday that a settlement was about to be effected between the striking employts and the Canadian Pacific railway, all negotiations were broken off today The strikers say it will be battle to a finish. The U. B. of R. employees say that the apparent willingness of the company to arbitrate for a settlement was a ruse to gain sufficient time III which to recruit substitutes for their striking men. All the members of thelc organization along the line were today called cut, Calgary, Winnipeg and Fort Williams being included.
 The company received another car load O; eastern men and now has l25 substitutes with whose assistance they will endeavor to carry on the general business. The following notice ad- dressed to shippers and all others con- cerned is published: This company is now prepared to accept all goods offer ing for shipment. The same can be delivered either at cur local sheds or our wharf warehouse"
 The strikers are receiving funds from unions throughout British Columbia and from Portland, Seattle and other places.
 From the head office of the company at Montreal is coming William White. assistant to the president who will try to settle the strike.

A CONVICT KILLED
Concerted Plan for a General Prison
 Break Averted.

News comes from Yuma that two prisoners broke from the line while the convicts were being marched from their midday meal to work upon the peni- tentiary wall at the territorial prison Friday. Guards Doheny and Johnson opened fire with their Winchesters be- fore the men, who were running at :, slow trot. had gone many rods, killing one. a life man rom Santa Cruz county, and wounding the other. who is a two years and a half man, so that he will probably die, it having been necessary to amputate his leg so closely to his body as to make his chances of re- covery very doubtful.
 The convict killed outright was shot through the head. Both men killed were Mexicans. It is thought that there was a plan among the convicts for ;l concerted break for liberty and only the proraptness O.: the guards averted more serious trouble. The other con- victs were thoroughly cowed and shrank close to the wall to escape the bullets of the guards.
 While the prison authorities are somewhat reticent as to details and to the expression of opinion as to proba ble results, it is the general opinion both lon the hill' and in the village of Yuma that the promptness of the guards in the affair will be most salutary in it's effects.

 !. Mines and Minerals ef Arizona
TO TAMBIEN MINE
A Gila County Property Passing Be
 yond the Prospect Stage.

Mention was made q few days ago of Mir. Arthur K. w. Kas!se Of this city leaving here for visit to the 10 Tam bien mine on Pinto creek. q few miles this side CT Globe, expecting to meet in Globe a party of stockholders in the Pinto Creek Mining and Smelling com pany that owns the property. MT Kaske has returned having had very pleasant and satisfactory trip ana brought with him some nice ere sam pies which he has placed on exhibition in the board of trade room.
 Mir Kaske was formerly secretary of the Pinto Creek company which is an organization of Missouri capitalists but resigned On account of i'll health and came to Phoenix last December. He still retains his stock i'll the company, however, and expects eventually to make some money out of the enter prise. In the meantime he is getting the health he came after and at present

source. The work oi pushing this tun- nel into the hill will be hurried by the use of power drills.
 In the vicinity of the 300 foot level the shaft is met and crossed by another tunnel frcin the surface on the hillside. This tunnel is hundreds of feet long and has developed vast amount of stoping ground on each side of the shaft, ore which is even now available fer milling. though it has been thought wiser to develop the lower levels before building reduction plant. A gasoline hc:st is placed in the shaft near it's intersection with this tunnel. for the pur- pose of raising the water and rock to the tunnel level. Work is also con- tinued in the tunnel beyond the shaft developing the big ore body in the up- per levels of the hills interior.
 The party that MT. Kaske met at Globe consisted Of Thomas q. Cockre1 of Platte City, Mo, president of the company; J. W. Castle. treasurer: Grant s. Watkins, secretary and at torrey, and Dr. Spencer Pitts of Platte City and Joseph Jenkin and son of Sa vannah, Mo, all officers or stockholders or both. Most of them had visited the property beiCre and were veV much pleased with the progress made in de- velopmert Those who visited the mine for the first time were surprised at the fine appearance of things and pleased as well with the beauties of Arizona in the winter time. The company has plenty of money for future operations and in q very short time a reduction plant will not only be desira ble but the one step between the stockholders and the dividends.
 The development of this property is another illustration of what railroads will oo for country. The Phoenix & Eastern survey passes within a few miles of the Yo Tambien and another survey made by the G. V. G. & N, crosses the group. Whether the latter railroad extension will be undertaken or not is not settled but the Phoenix & Eastern will be on hand presumab bly, before the Pinto company is ready for it's plant. It's rapid development has been done mostly since tie building oi this road was determined upon so cheap rates would be guaranteed for future operations.

are finding no opposition now except in two sections of the valley and those who are operating outside of those sec tions are obtaining the signature of every farmer they meet. There was what was believed to be some apathy at first but it turns out that the farm CTS wanted to lock into the matter a little before taking what seemed to be most important step and most of them have satisfied themselves re- garding what the water storage con ference committee men had satisfied themselves in the course of their long study of the subject.
 The committees believe that shortly all opposition will melt away. What opposition there is could not prove fa- tai even if it should be persisted in. When the time comes if there should rot be sufficient area of the cultivat- ed lands signed arrangements would be made to apply the flood waters to the desert lands until such an area as is required should be secured. That is course the gentlemen at the head of the movement would not like to take but that is. what will be done if it should become necessary.

GLOOMY OUTLOOK
 ON LOWER RIVER
A Higher Stage Than Ever Predicted
 on the Mississippi River.

Memphis. Tenn, March 9.-The river and is rising. The weather bureau bulletin issued tonight states that the river at Cairo and Helena will continue to rise at an increased rate, and a stage of 35 feet may be expected within twenty-four hours and q feet by March 14.-It further states that the present rise will continue until stage of 2S feet or more is reached at Mem phis.
 Weather conditions arc similar over much of the vast area drained by the Mississippi and it's tributaries from the headquarters of the former to the gulf and reports from all points indi- cate heavy rains and swollen streams that the levees built since the flood of 1897 have very ma terially narrowed the territory over which the river can spread, that the statement of d proba- ble stage oi 3S feet is based.
 The greate stage ever recorded at Memphis is 37.3 feet, and it is thought that a greater stage must do much damage in the lowlanda. What would occur from such stage cannot be foretold. The levees both on the east and west sides of the Mississippi are being strengthened at all weak points and such places as will be subjected to the greatest pressure when the flood is at its height.
 Government boats are patrolling the river and men on foot are patrolling the embankmentS watching for suS- picious cI threatening developments of any character. There is little antici- patton of serious trouble until the wat CT approaches 37 feet.
 Reports from points further down the river show that much damage is being caused by the flood in the south. Discouraging reports also have been received from Vicksburg and Natcbez.

CUTICURA
 OINTMENT Purest of Emo||ients and Greatest of Skin Cures. The Most Wonderful Curative
 of All Time Eor Torf,,r;nn Disfiourinn
For Torturing, Disiguring
 Humours.

Cuticura Ointment is beyond question the most successful curative for tortur- ing, disfiguring humours of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair. ever com pounded, in proof of which a single amounting with it, preceded by hot bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed in the severer cases by dose of Cuti- cura Resolvent Pills, is often sufficient to afford immediate relief in the most distressing forms of itching, burning and scaly humours, permits rest and sleep, and points to q speedy cure when all other remedies fail. It is especially so in the treatment of infants and chil- dren, cleansing, soothing and healing the most distressing of infantile hu- mours, and preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp and hair.
 Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the same time, the charm of, satisfying the simple wants of the toilet, in caring for the skin, scalp, hair and hanos from in- fancy to age, far more effectually, agreeably and economically than the most expensive of toilet emollients. rts "Instant relief for skin-tortured babies, or" Sanative, antiseptic cleans ing" or "One-night treatment of the hands," or "Single treatment of the hair," or" Use after athletics" cycling, golf, tennis, riding, sparring, or any sport, each in connection with the use of Cuticura Soap, is sufficient evidence of this.
 Millions now rely on Cuticura Soap, assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre- serving, purifying and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening and soothing red, rough and sore hands, for baby rashes, itchings and chafings, as well as for all purposes of the toilet, bath and nursery.

By that time the reactionary tendency had been al rested and recovery gathered force for the rest of the day.

THE OHIO FALLING.
But a Dangerous Rise at Louisville Is
 Feared.

Louisville, Ky. March 9-Although the Ohio river is falling here tonight, the danger of the water reaching con- siderable proportions is not averted, and it is probable that stage of thirty feet or two feet above the danger line will be reached before the rise runs it's cougse.
 The rise began shortly before noon, but the rate of recession was only one tenth of an inch an hour. It Is proba ble that this fall will continue tomorrow and by Wednesday or Thursday morn ing rise will reach here which will bring the river up to the highest point of the season.
