Tra1edy at Naco.

A tragedy was enacted in front of the express office in Naco on Wednes- day, when Henry Bonhauser, agent of Wells Fargo & Co.,, shot and killed Otto Moore, after the latter had lodged four bullets in Bonnhauser's body with an effect that may prove fatal. The two men had been enemies for long time, though there is no knowledge here of the cause of their ill feeling. Moore met Bonnhauser near the lat ter's office and began firing. Bonn hauser ran inside to arm himself, but before he could secure weapon Moore had shot four times, each bull let finding the mark. Though weak from loss of blood Bonnhauser aimed deliberately and his single shot pierced his adversary's heart. Bonn hauser was shot once in the neck, once in the shoulder, and twice in the side, and has but little chance of re- covery. Bonnhauser was vindicated by the coroner's jury. Moore is an old timer, we'll known in southern Arizona, and when killed was in the employ of William Liggett.

It Is Up to the Doctor.

A lady wrote us from Winchester, Va, that she had been under the doc tors care for four years for dyspepsia, the pain appeared to center under the left shoulder blade, was so severe at times that she could neither eat nor sleep. She had lost faith in her home doctor, and ask us to send her sample of Dr. Gunn's Improved Liver Pills, which had been recommended to her. We sent her two pills, in a few days she sent for box. Now she writes that the pain under her shoulder has left her entirely, she enjoys her meals and never sleeps less than eight hours every night, and this has all come about in two weeks, and cost her 30 cts. for two boxes of pills. Says the doc tor charged her 5000, and that she told him he had better take the $50. % and invest it all in Dr. Gunn's Im- proved Liver Pills and build up his practice. Sold by druggists for 25c per box. Anyone having dyspepsia, bilious spells or sich-headache can get speedy cure by the use of these pills. For sale by the Cover Drug Co.

GOV. ERODE SUGGESTS,
Regarding the Reclamation of Arizona In.
 vestIsation of Water Resources.

The Honorable Alexander A. Bro die, Governor of Arizona, is in heart, sympathy with the aims and purpose of the reclamation service As chic of commonwealth that embraces large tracts of arid land, he appre ciates the benefits that will follow ; system of scientific irrigation. In re sponse to an invitation from the di rector of the United States Geologica Survey, he has recently made some pertinent suggestions in regard to tn, work of measuring streams and inves. tigating the water resources of tn, territory for irrigation purposes.
 Next to the Salt River dam, whict is now in process of construction Governor Brodie thinks that the Col orado river project is the most i'm portant. There is no greater area o irrigable land in the southwest, he de clares, than that along the Colorado river from above Needles to the Mex, ican border. The available land con. tinues in vast stretches after the rlveI has departed at Yuma for the sea. This river frequently overhows it's banks and damages crops in the culti- vated section about Yuma. It would, therefore, seem advisable to provide means for storing its flood waters. Governor Brodie also advocates the construction of levee from the town of Yuma to the Mexican line to pre- vent the overflow of the river.
 He suggests that the water supply of the Santa Cruz valley be investi- gated, that proper attention be given to the artesian belt in San Pedro val ley, and that the numerous small res ervoir sites in different parts of the territory be exploited. He thinks it would be advisable to extend the sur veys already begun to the upper stretches of the Salt and Gila rivers, for the purpose of locating available reservoir sites on those streams and their tributaries. The same might also be said of the Little Colorado river, which takes it's rise in the vicin- ity of the White mountains, in the eastern part of Arizona. It is prob able that on all these streams and their tributaries reservoir sites may be found where flood waters could be stored for use on lands in the valleys below. Subsidiary dams might be constructed in the upper tributaries of streams, and assistance thus ren- dered to those farmers who are strug- gling with uncertain water supplies.
 Governor Brodie also thinks it ad- visable that surveys for the location of underground water supplies should be extended. These will be useful in furthering irrigation enterprises de- pendent on power pumping plants.
 In connection with Governor Brodie's suggestions it is interesting to note the announcement of Mir. N. H. Darton, chief of the surveys west cru division of hydrography, that pro- vision will soon be made for a study of the waters in the Santa Cruz and San Pedro valleys.

Within twelve hours of the time when
he committed the awful crime, Philip
Naone was behind the bars charged
with the murder of his wife. He was
captured about z O'Clock yesterday
morning at the home of his uncle On
Pauoa road by Mounted Patrolman e.
S. Holt. Naone made no attempt to
resist arrest and admitted the truth of
the story as published in the Advertiser
yesterday. From his statement yester-
day it is thought that insanity will be
the plea of the defense.

Saturday night the entire police was
ON the alert. Officers were detailed to

Mr.. Atkinson says if we pay fair
price we can get all the citizen labor
we want. We do not expect to pay any
less than the Government is paying for

of fact we are paying a little more.
We are paying from dollar to dollar

For the past two weeks we have

interview as follows:
, Contractors are making a bluff at
advertising for labor. but they can get
all the citizen labor they want if they
will pay fair price. Perhaps it may
cost them more than it would for Jap

with the question. Why, in one valley

REMARK WITHDRAWN.
No Desire to Convict machen by Slip of
 the Tongue.

Washington, Jan. 22.--In the postal trial to-day several witnesses were led through tedious line of questioning by the assistant district attorney, most of which was for the purpose of showing the personal interest of Machen in in- troducing the Croft fastener. Treasury and postoffice department officials ex- plained the various channels through which bills for fasteners passed before the drafts in payment were drawn.
 After counsel for the defense briefly had touched on the statement that Machen on salary of $3,500 a year had managed to make $20,000 a year MT. Conrad explained and secured permis- sion to withdraw his remark, saying that he would not convict the defend- ants on any statement that fell un- guardedly from his lips. The disputed transcript of Machen's account with the Union National bank tonight was ad- mitted on the express understanding that only such items as were shown to relate to Machen in the transactions be- tween him and the other defendants should be considered.

 New York, Jan. 22.-An agreement on terms for the reorganization of the United States Shipbuilding company and the abandonment of the Sheldon re- organization plan, it is understood on good authority, has been substantially reached this week between Receiver Smith of the company and Charles M. Schwab and members os the Sheldon syndicate, but this plan is said to be ac- ceptable neither to the bondholders' protective committee nor to the Con- monwealth Trust company, and the lit- igation is practically bound to continue unless the Schwab interests make still further concessions.
 The plan as outlined tentatively pro- vided for the retention Of control of MT. schwab, giving him s9.OOo.OOO pre- ferred and $6.OOO.O 900 common stock out Of a total of approximately $30 LOGO, ,O0O stock of the re-organized company. the remaining s6.OOO.OOO preferred and $6,- 900 ,000 common going to the other inter- ests. Under it Mr. Schwab abandoned his contention that his mortgage on the Bethlehem plant should be given prior ity over the first mortgage bonds on the entire shipbuiiding company proper ty, this being one of the features of the Sheldon plan.

4 UNION WITH HARVARD
THE MASSACHUSETTS, INSTITUTE
 OF TECHNOLOGY
Likely to Become Part of the Univer- si.y Before the Year is over-carnsg,e Says He Cannot Devote Any Money to sc,ensifao Work in Boston Until There isa Union.


 Is a Union.
 Boston. Jan. 22.-The Advertiser to- morrow will say. The legal union of the Massachusetts Institute of Technol- ogy with Harvard university is the probable outcome Of the present year. It is hoped that by June some official an- nouncement of definite plan of union can be given to the public. The propo- sition was made to Andrew Carnegie to devote certain sum of money to scien- tific work in this city, MT. Carnegie's reply was as follows:
 T do not expect to give out one cent to the Institute of Technology nor to Harvard independently in the same working together. As a business man I cannot see any decent excuse for try ing to run the Institute of Technology and the Lawrence Scientific school of Harvard independently in the same field. It is foolish and is a waste of money
 The above statement was repeated to a member of the Technology corpora tion, who said emphatically: MT Carnegie has the right idea, but he is mistaken in assuming that there is no chance for a union. Before the summer has begun I hope that the union will have been arranged. The following statement can be made on the authority of most prominent member of the Harvard corporation: Harvard has decided on no plan for the expenditure of the Mckay legacy of s5,OO0,000. No plan will be adopted until we learn what decision will be reached on the matter of a union be- tween the Institute of Technology and the Lawrence Scientific school" There is no idea of wiping out the in- dividuaIity of the Massachusetts Insti- ute of Technology. In fact, the Har- yard men want the union to retain the Institute of Technology's corporate title, and practically the Lawrence Sci- entific school will be made an annex of the Institute of Technology.

 Mir Morrell was struck a heavy blow on the head from behind with some in- strument. He fell to the ground and cried loudly for assistance. These cries frightened away his assailant who, it is believed, was bent on highway robbery. An examination of MT. Morrells wound showed that while an ugly scalp wound had been inflicted the skull had not been fractured. The police are search ing for the supposed highwayman, but their description of the man is meagle, and there is little prospect of his cap- ture.

DEPRECIATION OF st7O,OOO
CLEVELAND BANK FORCED TO
 CLOSE ITS DOORS.

The Produce Exchange Robbed by an oaiciai-voluntaryc Confession Said to |. Have Been Made-Had Been speou- lating tn Chicago Grain-Branchcs of the Institutiou iu Three Smaller Places Closed.
 Cleveland, Jan. 22-The Produce Ex- change bank, corner of Broadway and Central avenue, closed it's doors to-day. The insolvency court has appointed the Cleveland Trust company receiver. The assets and liabilities of the bank are each placed at $1,50O,0OO.
 Attorney Andrew Squire. on behalf of the bank, made the following statement this afternoon:
 There is a dedication of $170,O00, which is more than the paid-in capital and surplus combined. The original capital was $2O0,O0O, but only $50 per share was paid in. The depositors will be protected fully. The stockholders will have to pay in s1O0OO0 more on their capital stock and $2OO,0O0 in stock holders liability.
 sThe directors worked all day trying tomake up the deficiency, but the bur den was too heavy and they decided to close the bank.
 'The defaulting official has been speculating in Chicago grain. He cov- cred his peculations by manipulating the banks loan accounts. He volun- tarily confessed yesterday. He will be taken into custody this afternoon. The directors know where he ls.''
 It is announced that branches of the Produce Exchange bank at Defiance, Hudson and Bedford, Ohio, will be closed at once as a result of the fail- ure.
 The last filed statement made by the bank October gave it's total resources as $1,759,6 ,6S9, and total liabilities the same amount.
 An official of the bank is now under guard at his home. He will, according to the statements of other bank off, cials tonight, plead guilty to the charge of embezzlement. An indict- ment will be brought against him and the case hurried to trial. There is @ great deal of uneasiness among the de- positors, many of whom were small creditors
 The irregularity has been going on for eight years, it is said tonight.
