THEY DID THE TRICK
Phoenix Baseball Team Got What It
 Went After in Tucson.

Tucson. Ariz, July 1.-The Phoe- nix baseball team got what it came after in the old pueblo today, namely the scalps of the valiant Grays, the score being 12 to ' in favor of the vis- itors.
 It was a good natured bunch that stepped from the cars this morning and the boys were met by an equally good natured gathering of local fans and were treated royalty by the Tue sonians generally.
 The game was a good one and at its finish the Tucson players said the Phoenix team was the only one that bad ever be1ten them on the square. The grand stand was fair and cheered vocsferously all good work done by either side. The crowd though was intensely patriotic and true to its home team. The rivalry between the towns made the game the more inter- esting and the Tucsonians generally said they would rather be beaten by any other team in the territory than by Phoenix, but they were free to acknowledge the honors had been fair ly won.
 The Tucson battery was Armstrong In the box and Drachman behind the bat. Armstrong for some reason found the batter easier than. the home plate and hit six men with the ball sending them to bases. For Phoenix Wimp did the tossing and Loman was behind the bat. The score indicates that both of them were on hand when needed. There were numerous errors but they were about evenly divided.
 Avery, of course, knocked the ball over the fence. He always does tha. else it wouldn't be Avery. Tucson was fairly warned but refused to move the fence back. The Phoenix team leaves for home tonight in good corftion and elated with it's victory.

MIR. DONNELLY TALKS.
There Was No Concession From the
 Unions.

St. Louis, Mo-, July 17.-There is no change noticeable In the strike situa- tion of the St. Louis and East St. Louis packing plants today. Engineers and firemen were the only men employ ed in the packing houses today.
 Michael Donnelly, international pres ident. arrived from Chicago and spent most of the day in conference in East St. L5uis with the strike leaders He addressed mass meeting of strikers. Several thousand men were unable to gain admission. President Donnelly re- ceived an ovation. He slid:
 We shall never again entertain arr or child who has been discharged or iG out on strike is returned to thelr former positions without prejudice. Cattle buyers and other men who have been with the packing houses for years have given up their positions rather than fill the jobs of the strik- CTS and We would be ingrates if we ac- cepted any plan or acquiesced In any movement which would not result in
 the immediate unemployment Of these men who have been faithful to us.
 "The meat strike affects every work lngman. It enters into the personal life of every home, for meat is an ab-
 solute necessity. No riot shall take place in Chicago or any other center, and the union officials and the men
 must see to this even if they have to c r1 ne ItS fO riots. as reported In Chicago and South | St. Paul. merely brawls between our own men.
 We have had representatives of the trades unions who are employed at tSe hacking houses say to us, we a e at your ccmmand.' Whenever we say that they shall come out, they will
 march out to a man. This strike will never be forgotten. It will prove enc
 of the best educators in the history of the country. It will illustrate the pres crt standing of the brotherhood of
 man.
 At the conclusion of the meeting, President Donnelly in an interview stated that according to informatic n that had been received from John Joyce, international secretary of the
 union, that the packers killed be- | tween 500 and 1000 cattle during the last week. as compared with 96,OOO to I 120,OO0 head during the same period one | year ago.
 Tn three months time" said Presi- i dent Donnelly, eff the strike should i happen to last that long. the packers | cannot get the skilled men sufficient : to kill over five per cent of the regu- | lar run of cattle. Should a sympathet-
 ic strike be called it will include the union men in every division of employ ment in the packing houses. This will ! include firemen, engineers, electrical 1 workers, carpenters, plumbers paint i CTS, coopers, team-fitters. drivers and 1 railroad men. The latter will refuse to l handle goods consigned to and from ! the packing houses. This call will not , he made until it is deemed absolutely necessary, but when it is made it has
 been assured that they will come out.

AREA, POPULATION AND PRO-
 DUCTION.

The land area of the Louisiana pur- chase exceeds that of the original thirteen states, being S75.O25 square miles, against a land area of S2O.944 square miles in the original thirteen states. The states and territories which have been created in whole or in part from its area number four teen, and their population in 1900 was 14,70S.616, against a population of less than 100000 in the territory at the time of it's purchase Their total area is nearly one third that of the entire union. and their population about one fifth that of the entire United States. They produced in 1890. 164.OOO.0e9 bushels of wheat, and in 1903. 374.- OO0, ,OOO bushels. at a value in 1903 Of s352, ,OOO, their total corn crop forming 40 per cent in 1890 and m 1903 over 43 per cent of the total corn crop of the United States. Of oats they produced in 1903. 331. .OO0.0O bushels. or 42 per cent of the ;otal product of the country, with valug- ton of 5000. .OOO. Their produ-jiou of barley in 1903 was VIlued at over 25,O0O,000, and of rye at eyer S3.000. l 600; while their production Os Irish | potatoes in 1903 was over S54.OOO.0O0. of hay. S117,O0O. .000, and Of cotton | QS99), S50.OoO.0oO. The co.al value of the agricultural products or the states formed from the Louisiana pur- chase including in that category sim ply wheat, corn, oats, barley. rye. hIy and potatoes, was in 1890 given as S626, ,0O0 GOO, and in 1903 it had in- creased to sS66, ,3S9, ,O00. The wool product of the state amounted to !n 1891 tc e1S71,357 pounds, and in 1903 ] to S9S5S,50O pounds, or more than the cost of the entire area. The value or the farm animals in these states in 1 1899 was S759, ,596. 900. and on January 1, 1904. the value was $1.119, ,512. 0O0. Add to these easily measured farm pro o- ducts the estimated value of the wool the sugar the dairy and poultry pro- ducts, and the proportion of the live stock annually turned into provisions. and it may be safely estimated tha; tEe agricultural pToducts of sinSle yeIr amounted to one hundred times the original cost of the area; or. in other words, that its cost is repaid by

The building for the smell ter will be up and ready to receive the machinery upon it's arrival The smel- ter will be built at the south part of the building and additional furnaces will be put in to the north.
 Ut is the intention of the company to pat up plant capable of smel,ing 5oO tons of ore per day. In the future that will also be increased as the ore supply demands.
 At present the company is buying ore and piling it on the ground and in bins ready for smelling when the machinery is installed. The insure nee has been adjusted and all prelimiEaries arranged for the starting of work inn mediately upon the building. Plans are being drafted for the structure.
 "The Val Verde water supply is one of the best in the county, and fur nishes7 ample water for all smelling and reduction purposes the year around. It is the intention of the com pany to make a unique dam, one nev- CT before made. in Arizona that we have ever keard of IL will be made Of sIag, dumped into the bed Of the stream just as the slag comes from the smelteT By making a slag dam the water can be raised almost ninety feet, and a lake made nearly half mile long and from forty to eighty feet deep all that distance.

Biennial Election Am endment
Carries.

Up to Wednesday noon official returns
on the biennial election amendment
voted on at the last election had been
received from SO counties in the state
giving a majority of 17,O66 for the
amendment, and unofficial returns from
eight other counties add 5,232 to this
majority, making 22,29S for the 81 coun-
ties, the two missing counties being
Fremont and Plymouth, so that it is
certain that the amendment has carried
by at least 10000.
On the Temple amendment the vote is
much lighter and returns from N coun-
ties give it a majority Of only 1896, and
the chances are that the returns from
the other % counties will wipe this ma
jority out and the amendment will be
lost.
1t is sure thing therefore that no
election will be held in Iowa next year,
and the officers whose terms would ex-
pire January 1, 1906 will have their
terms of Office extended one year. In
Decatur county the county officers who
will be benefited by the new law are
all democrats and representative San
key, treasurer Young, sheriff Wallace,
superintendent Hutchinson and coroner
Bowman will each get an extra year.

IA SUCCESSFUL SALE
Dispersion Sale of Pryor & SigIer and
A. w. Davis Well Attended and
Stock Brings Fair Prices.

The dispersion sale of Short-H Horn cat
tie from the herds of Pryor & Sigler and
A. W. Davis, held at G. M. Axes new
sale pavilion in this city last Saturday,
was we'll attended and considering that
most of the stock was young the prices
realized were fairly good, averaging a
trifle over $50 per head for the So head
sold, including the calves which were
sold separately. The cattle were right
off of grass and had not been stall fed,
and this made them sell for less than
they would otherwise.
1t was the first sale held in Axes new
sale pavilion and demonstrated that
there is no finer place in the state for
big sales. The carriages had all been
removed and portable seats erected
around the sale ring SO that everybody
had comfortable seat and could see
the animals as they were brought into
the ring.
The sale was cried by Col. Geo. P.
Bellows, of Maryville, Mo-, assisted by
Coils. D. A. McMains and j. G. Johnson,
of Derby. Col. Bellows said that the
cattle sold were some of the best bred
stuff he has sold for long time, and
the fortunate buyers all secured good
bargains.

Broke jail at Bethany.

of this city and a fellow from Eagleville
naAed Marion Sweden were arrested
al slythedale on the charge of stealing
several turkeys near GAINESVILLE and
were placed in the county Jail at Beth

night about eight o'clock they sawed
their way out of the Bethany Jail and
made their escape. The boys say they
walked to Leon that night, distance Of
43 miles, as they were seen east Of town
early Sunday morning. The Bethany
officials had sent word to Sheriff Wal
lace of their escape, and he soon had
them located, and was just going out
after them when Searcy's father volun-
teered that he would have them come in
and give themselves up, and he made
his word good, the fellows surrendering
Sunday evening. Sheriff Wallace re-
turned them to Bethany Monday. At

Saturday to interview the prisoners,
having been employed to defend them,

escape, and on the face of it appear
ances were rather against Cal, but he
took an active part in finding them and
saw that they were safely returned to
