MULLAN's LAUNDRY
BUSINESS VENTURE BY
WASHINGTON BELLIES.
Their Father Constructed for the
Government the Old Military Road
From Fort wana walla to Fort
Benton-The Family is Much Re
duced i'm Circumstances, and the
Daughters VIII Give Their Father
n Home.

Almost every one in the Inland
Empire has heard of the "Mullan
road which started at Fort Walla
Walla and extended through the
Occur d'Alene and Rocky mountains
to Fort Benton. on the Missouri river,
says, the walla walla Union.
1t was a military road constructed
by the government under the direc-
tion of Captain John Mullan. U. S. A.
1t was finished at the outbreak of the
Rebellion. For some years the mails
were carried over it. and it was used
by immigrants. The son of an old
army surgeon graduated with distlnc-
tion at West Point and. doubtless,
would have attained high rank dur
ing the Civil war, had he remained in
the army.
But his wife. a fiery native of Bal
timore, was "secesh to the core" and
being the dominant one of the pair,
forced him to resign and they took
up their residence on a farm south of
Walla walla, where they remained
until the close of the war. when they
went east. eventually settling in
Washington City. where he became
land buyer. A long story could be
written about Captain Mullan and his
numerous brothers. two of whom
We're widely known naval officers.
A press telegram from Washington
City tells of the most recent exploits
of Captain Mullan and family. 1t
reads:
Start n Laundry.
washington society is staggered
by the announcement that two OF its
members are about to open laundry.
They are young women whose names
for several seasons past have figured
on the most exclusive dinner lists,
and who have been bellies of many
dances given in the most elegant ball
rooms in the city. The young women
are daughters of Captain John Null
Ian. They own a handsome residence
on Connecticut avenue, within four
doors of the British embassy, and
there they made their formal bow to
Washington society eight or 10 years
ago.
1.-The Misses Mullan will rent their
house furnished. They are entering
the laundry business in order to have
assured means of livelihood. They
already have a large amount of work
promised. The mother of the Mullan
girls was Rebecca Williamson. a belle

tobacco or narcotic drugs. The
entire estate goes into the hands
of the executor, who shall man
age it and divide yearly the pro-
ceeds among only such children
as do not use tobacco, liquor or
narcotic drugs in any form or any
quantity. Any member OF the
family who uses any OF these
things may become a beneficiary

and on July F Governor Brodie tele- graphed the department on the sub ject calling attention to the letter of MT. Wood.
 The order puts the matter in the hands of Superintendent s. F. Breen of those two reserves. The meaning of it is that the rule closing the reserves will be suspended until the drouth is broken. As a matter of fact the drouth in that region has probably been brok- en by this time but it will be some time before the grass will spring up on the ranges adjacent to the re- serves sufficient for the needs of the stock. The supervisor will be the judge of that sufficiency. He win also be the judge of the number of cattle and sheep which may be admitted to the reserves under the order.
 This order will affect all the stock men in the northern and central parts of the territory. The San Francisco reserve lies wholly within Coconino county, but the Black Mesa stretches along the water sheds of the Salt and Gila and lies within the counties of Co., conino. Yavapai, Navajo. Apache Gila and Graham.

MAY BE A CRIPPLE FOR LIFE
The Manner and Extent of Hrs. W. H.
 Barnes Injuries.

The friends in Phoenix of Mrs. w. H. Barnes had learned that some time ago she was severely injured on the world $ fair grounds. Judge Street, who re- turned yesterday morning from Tue. son, brought an account of the manner and extent of her injuries.
 Mrs. Barnes and her daughter, Mrs J. A. Martin, and the two children of the latter were about the fair grounds Mrs. Barnes complained of weariness and entered a jinrikisha. It was be- ing drawn by a Japanese along the edge of a steep declivity at the bottom of which there was a stone walk. IT. some way the Japanese lost control of the vehicle and was pushed down the hill, he and the vehicle and Mrs. Barnes falling upon the sidewalI. in a heap.
 It was found that Mrs. Barnes had had the right ankle broken and that the hip was crushed about the socket. She was removed to the Jefferson ho- tel. where Judge Barnes and his fam fly were stopping. She lies there help less yet and it is the opinion of the surgeons in charge that she cannot be moved before some time in September. It is doubtful whether she will ever re- cover from the injury to the hip.
 On the night before this accident her nephew, Will Daley, was thrown from a buggy in Tucson and also received a broken ankle. His shoulder. too. was crushed by the fall and he is lying at the residence of Judge Barnes without prospect of an early recovery.

an error. He knew that MT. McNeil had been called away by the sudden illness of his father, who lives at Sioux City, Ia.
 He said that on account of the haste in obeying the summons to go to the bedside of his father, his departure might easily not have been known gen. erally. The friend also denied on the part of Mir. McNeil that he had any in- tention of becoming a candidate for the nomination on the democratic ticket for district attorney of Cochise county.
 He further said that of all men in that county there is no one who night less be expected to commit a crime. He has not been a resident of the county very long, but he has been there long enough to establish a good and grow ing law practice. He is already one of the foremost members of his party and took a prominent part in the dem ocratic territorial convention at Tue son.
 IL will be remembered in this connec- tiOn that last week C. c. McNeil. for merly superintendent of the M & P railroad, was arrested at Tombstone for forgery; that he was charged with having taken from the post office a let ter addressed to Attorney McNeil. and that he had written the name of the attorney on a check for S25 which he found in the letter and obtained money on it.

RESERVES THROWN OPEN
Stock May Be Admitted to San Fran
 cisco and Black Mesa.

A communication from Assistant Secretary Ryan of the interior depart ment Was received at the office of the governor yesterday, saying that an or der had been made by the department for the temporary throwing open of the closed portions of the San Francis co and Black Mesa forest reserves for stock. The order was made on July 15.
 The movement for securing this re- lief for the stOclmen of the northern part of the territory was begun about three weeks ago. A petition was made by the representatives of the stockmen to the department. It was shown that the stock industry of the whole terri tory was in a bad way and that if conditions continued the damage would be irreparable. A letter on the subject was forwarded to the department by Hon. John x. Wood of Navajo county

INDIGNANT FARhERS
A Meeting to See if All Water Coming
 Cannot Be Obtained.

There was a meeting of the farmers and others interested in the flow of water in all of the north side canals, to inquire why, of all the 23O, GOO inches of water reported from the dam last week, so little of it had reached the patched lands of the valley. The ob- Ject of the meeting was not only to inquire why this was so but to take steps which would prevent a repetition of that disastrous failure
 There was a strong disposition to censure the canal company for not be- ing prepared to handle the water and measures were discussed for keeping the waterways in repair. There was an expression of a great deal of feeling. not only al the meeting but by the far mers on the streets after and before the meeting. No definite decision was reached, but it was announced that an- other meeting would be held for a fur ther consideration of the subject.
 The temper of the farmers was not improved by an exciting incident which occurred in the morning before the meeting. Supervisor John P. Orme and others went to the office of the Arizona Canal Co. to talk over this and other matters with General Mana ger Cleary. The conversation quickly became heated and action succeeded to the use of vigorous words The gen eral manager was inside the counter of the office and Orme was standing just outside. In reply 10 a statement by MT. Orme, Mir. Cleary thrust his fist through an opening in the grill work and landed upon the face of Mir. Orne. The blow was not heavy one and was not intended to do any bodily dam- age. but it did no moral good.
 It aroused great deal of inflammation and was the p1in- cipal topic of conversation on the street during the fore noon. Later in the day a party of water users again visited the canal of fee and the subject was further talked over. Mir. Cleary expressed regret at the occurrence and offered to apolo-
