Wiii investigate.

Colonel John $. Lockwood, who for twenty-five years had been connected with the Indian Industrial league in an official position, has left Boston on a two months tour among the reser- vations in the Indian territory, the Navajos in New Mexico, the Pimas in Arizona and the Mission Indians in California, representing the Industrial league and the Cambridge Indian association.
 So many complaints have beenmade of late of conditions on the various reservations that the associations have decided upon making a thorough investigation of existing affairs. Col onel Lockwood will make an exhaus- tive report upon conditions. Little outside of bald statistics can be secur- ed from government reports and those interested are awaiting with much in- terest the result ofColonel Lockwood's investigation.

A unique case was decided in Co- chise county this week, says the Tue son Post. The county has brought suit against Sheriff A. V. Lewis who it was claimed should pay for the board of United States prisoners, a considerable item. It seems that the government allows the county and sheriff each certain amount for the care of prisoners. Judge Doan decid- ed that the county should pay the board of prisoners out of the moneys it received and that the money the sheriff receives is for personal ser vices.

Closing quotations:
THE METAL MARKET.

The copper, morket is quiet and un. changed. Lake and electrolytic are held by the leading producers at 12 1-2 cents. and that price has very recently been paid by consumers. Two or three producers are said to have sold some copper for future delivery at a shade lower prices. The greatest de mand at present is for spot or immedi ate deliveries; and there is a scarcity of spot copper on the market.
 During the past week there has been a slight slackening of the for eign buying demand and quotations for standard copper in London have de clined. Exports so far this month have been very heavy. giving promise Of exceeding the July total. The outlook for the metal continues very favorable both in this country and abroad, however, and there is good prospect that prices will be a cent per pound higher before they are a half cent lower
Bisbee daily review., 1904-08-18
THE COPPER SHARE MARKET

The activity of the copper share market is once more increasing. and the prospect that prices will gradually work up to a reasonable level is be- coming brighter every day. Floor brokers and traders all express satis- faction al the readiness with which all copper stocks may be sold. This fact Is reassuring to the banks and to the commission houses. and is caus- ing growth of confidence all around. The market had rest for a week or two. and during that time there was very few new selling orders. Even the most skeptical are being brought to a realization of the fact that the situation is legitimately stronger. There is good reason for the belief that the upward movement will con- tinue unail fall. and that many stocks will double in price.-Boston Con- mercial.

Epes Randolph Says
 Parker Is An Even Bet
FOR WINNING IN NOVEMBER CANDIDACY MEETS WIDE
 APPROVAL.
Democrats Throughout Country Are Going Into Campaign With Enthus- iasr - Considers Arizona large'y Demooratic-Risht-of-Way War.

The Los Angeles Herald of Sunday prints an excellent picture of Colonel Epes Randolph, of this city, accom- panied by the following interview:
 'To say the least, it is an even be; that Judge Parker will be elected President of the United States"
 This is the way Colonel Epes Ran dolph, of Tucson, AriZ., who was for merly manager of the Pacific Railway of this city, sizes up the political situ ation.
 Colonel Randolph arrived in Los An geles Friday from San Francisco. where he has been on business con nected with the Southern Pacific com pany. He will spend several days in this city before returning to his post Of putty in the Territory.
 "Of course" he continued, q have not been East since Parker's nomina ton, and am only relying on the re ports that come to us in giving my opinion on the political outlook. It would appear that Parker's candidacy IS meeting with the approval of the Democracy throughout the country,
 Ao'C Ho cOuot tudl ne VIII Te- ceive many thousands of Republican votes. He is a good, clean, conserva. tive man, and is very able. On the other hand, Roosevelt is cratic. and as a whole his administration has not been satisfactory.
 While Arizona will have no voice in the Presidential election. believe the Democrats are largely in the ma jority. They regard Parker as one of the ablest men in the country and are anxious that he should be elected"
 Colonel Randolph says that there is no change in the right of way war in the Territory which has been waged between the Southern Pacific and the santa Fe. The maps are being care fully examined by the Washington au- thorities, and pending their decision no further action will be taken by either side.
 We are confident We will win out in the long run," said Colonel Ran dolph, speaking for the Southern Pa cific- "The right of way properly be- longs to us, but I suppose the Santa Fe vii test to the last ditch before the question is finally settled"

SHANNON A GOOD PURCHASE.

shannon stock has continued to be sold by holders who believe its con- tinued decline indicates that the mine is a big disappointment There are insiders who declare that the bad break in the stock has been wholly due to public knowledge that two other insiders are selling and to ex- ceedingly skillful manipulation. Those in best position to speak with full knowledge are very decided in their assertions that the property is in every way all right. We do not be- iieve there is anything about the prop erty to warrant a price of less than s per share for the stock shannon looks like an excellent purchase.-Bos- ton Commercial.

Bitter Against Americans.

Berlin, July 15.-The report that
an electric company OF New York
has made O bid for the construction
OF the new electric railroad between
Berlin and Hamburg and have guar
anteed speed of 125 miles an hour,
is denied here. A high official OF the
German Electric company, which is
building the electric road between
Berlin and Sossen, said to-day
"We know absolutely nothing here
about any bid by the American COM
pany. 1t is impossible that foreign
company should be given the con-
tract to construct this new road, as
this would arouse great public indig-
nation, even II the foreign company
offered to build considerably cheaper.
The kaiser would be strongly op-
posed to the work being done by
any except a German company.
There is much feeling in Berlin
against the American invasion at
pre- sent"

Wealthy Farmer Murdered.

st. Joseph, Mo, July 13.-PhilliE
Beremond, 60 years old, a wealthy
farmer, was murdered at his home
four miles east OF Clarksdale, Andrew
count, Mo-, some time last night
He lived alone and was credited with
being a very rich bachelor. The body
was found by relatives, who went to
his farm to cut some wheat. Bere.
mond was lying on the ground a
hundreds yards from his residence
with his head beaten almost into a
pulp. There were evidences OF a des-
perate fight between the old man and
his sssailants. His house was ran
sacked and II he had any money there
Of which his relatives know nothing,
Il was secured by the murders. It is
not believed, however, that any con-
derable sum was kept there.
