RUSSIANS SINK BRITIsH BOATS.
An Outrage connIt's{ Which May Lead
 to Declaration of War.

Dispatches state that shortly after midnight Friday. tn e Russian squad ron fell in with the Hull fishing fleet in the North sea- The first portion of the fishing fleet passed safely. Then the Russian slips turned their searchlights on the British vessels for some time and little later opened fire. The steam trawler Crane was sunk and the decapitated bodies of her skipper and mate have been recovered. The boatswain and other members of the crew, who are understood to be seriously wounded, are on board the Mission ship. Only the slightly injured members ot the crew have arrived at port.
 1 The steam trawlers Moulmeln ana ! Mino bave arrived at Hull seriously damaged by shots. the latter having l l6 holes in her hull It is feared that other damage was done to the trawlers and that at least one more was lost with all hands.
 ! The only survivor of the Crane who 1 has vet reached shore is J. A. Smith. son of the deceased skipper, and who, with the captains of the Moulmein and Mino is in London to consult with 1 the authorities. Young Smith was asleep in ff-ssrs&. ,Yhen the firing aroused him. Just as he was getting up shot struck the starboard and penetrated to the forecastle, smash ing d lamp near which he was stand ing. He rushed on deck. where the searchlights revealed the horrible sight of his father and Leggott lying headless and the deck strewn with injured. It was soon found that the vessel was sinking and signals for assistance were sent up.
 Smith and others concur in the details of the firing that have al ready been given.
 The first report of the affair re ccived in London was regarded as al most incredible. When. however, cumulative evidence no longer left a doubt of the general accuracy of the reports. the astoniShment became be wilderment as to what possible mo- tive could have led the Russian officers into such an extraordinary and inexplicable course of action which, unless satisfactory explana- tion is immediately forthcoming could only be regarded as an act of war. This is the view taken edi torially by all the morning papers The worst feature of the story is the heartlessness displayed by the Rus sian fleet in steaming away without taking the trouble to ascertain ever whether their fire had inflicted any damage and without any effort t rescue the victims,

HANWELL ON IRRIGATION

The Hon. George II. Maxwell de livcred most interesting speech on irrigation and incidentally in sup port of Hon. E. A. Fowler at Library hall Saturday night. The hall was we'll filed with people, among whom were many ladies. The speech was delivered under the auspices of the Fowler club. Mr. Maxwell was intro duccd by NiCc-I'rc>idcnt Love. Mir. Fowler iS the chairman of the cXcCu- tive committee of the National Irri- @dtiOu Association, which k not sup ported from the national treasury. dN many have been lead to believe. Mir. Fowler k really the father of the association which has already done oo much for the arid west, and through which it k expected that the entire arid belt will eventually he brought under irrigation. Mir. Maxwell explained that while prac- tiCiug law in California. and being interested in many water cases. his attention was particularly called to the great need of national aid for irrigation. With that idea in view he gave up the practice of law and devoted his energy to the Organiza- tiou of the National Irrigation a>so- citation. and after several wears of hard work he succeeded in securing aid from railroad companies and manufacturing institutions amount in" to about S6O. .OoO annually. and with these funds he and his Co-labor- CTS inauguratCd d campaign of edu- cation throughout the east. and fin ally got suitable laws passed which now bring in large sums of money, which k heiu" expended in the building of immense reservoirs in various sections of the country.
 One of the first fruits of the labor of this association. secured for Arizona. was the establishing of the dam and electrical plant at Tonto basin. which is now we'll under way. and for which an appropriation of S6.Ooo.ooo has already been provided. This dam will be 500 feet in length and more than 2oo feet high. with q storage capacity sufficient to irrieate practically all of the Salt River val ley, besides supplying electrical energy for surrounding towns and manufacturing institutions. This, as Mir. Maxwell explained, iS mere
 
 what it will eventually get by proper energy. In Egypt the British gov crumcnt has spent S25.0O0. 600 on one dam, and in India the British gov Crnment has expended S+0O. .0Oa, GOO on irrigating enterprises. Why, then, should not America spend d sufficient amount of money in irrigating en- terprises to reclaim all the desert lands of the west? This Mir. Max well assured the people would be done provided the people themselves took d sufficient interest in the matter.
 Incidentally he mentioned the fact that q dam on the Gila river between Clifton and Solomonville would settle for all time the vexatious tailings question which has been the cause of
The copper era., 1904-10-27

THE Herald. the leading demo- cratic paper in the county, makes the following comments on George H. MaXwcll's irrigation speech:
 He spoke of how the government should spend millions in building dams and reservoirs, but said nothing of how it could prevent them from being washed away or filled with mountain sediment and debris. He told of how the government should plant trees, but not how it could water them. He recommended the sinking of artesian wells, saving never q word in relation to artcsian water belts or channels, their exist enCc or otherwise.
 1t iS safe to leave these little de- tails to the government engineers, who are usually competent to handle such matters. The important thing is to get the appropriations. after which the minor difficulties of which the Herald complains. will be sur mounted.

The typhoid fever situation at Mo- renci has not improved during the past few weeks, in fact it appears to he growing even more serious than heretofore. One death occurred at MorenCi last week and number of new cases are reported. For some weeks past the number of cases of typhoid at Morenci would number in the nciGhborhood of fifty. The camp i> practically stricken with the disease. very few families having es- capped. and those who have are living in daily dread. While cases of typhoid have existed in Clifton for the past three years. there were fewer cases on an average during the past summer than heretofore. Re gently. however. the disease seems to be on the increase here. So far this season the disease here has been in d mild form. It would seem to be the duty of the board of health to make an effort to ascertain the cause of all
 
 remedy it. During the spring and summer the county spent consider able money in cleaning up the camps, which had an excellent effect. but the physicians did not arrive at any defi- mite knowledge as to the cause of the disease. The board of supervisors, it is understood. did not care to spend any more money in regulating the sanitary conditions of the camps. hence there seems to be no hope of stamping out the epidemic which now prevails. Should the disease con- tinue during the winter months. when there is more danger of catch ing cold, it is likely that many more deaths will occur.

Base Ball.

The Morenci baseball team journ- eyed to Globe last week and played two games on the Globe diamond. l The games were rather Oneslded and Morenci carried away the honOrS and demonstrated that their team is not slow by any means. The first game was won by q score of 4-1S and the second by d score of 3-lI. In fact Globe was the easiest thing MOrenCi had been up against this season and the boys report that their sympathy for the Globe baseball team is the only reason they did not give them two shut-outs. Woodward pitched the first game and secured 2l strike outs. which is not so bad. This means that only six batters reached first base Cook pitched the second game and secured IS strike-Outs. Globe got two safe hits off Woodward and one off Cook. The Globe people think Morenci can skin everything in the territory since the last two games. but when they were told that Morenci was second to Clifton, they remarked that there would be no dates for Clifton at that place this season. It will be remembered that Clifton gave Globe shut-out early this season.
 There is some talk of baseball tournament in Fl Paso next month in which all the teams of the south west will take part. It is only reasonable to say that Clifton and Morenci con double up and take first money. The local teams can select d team from the eighteen men that cannot be skinned any place among amateur players for both ba ting and fielding. especially batting.
 w. K. Foster arrived home last week from q fruitless search for I. l.. Munroe and Joe Jones, wanted here for stealing horses from Pascoe X Shirley. He trailed them to the salt lake of Socorro county, where the trail was obliterated by cattle and sheep ranging in that section. He secured one of the horses which had been traded to a ranchman. A full description of the men and the horses have been sent to officers in northern Arizona and New Mexico, and it is likely that they will yet be appre- hended. It is said that both men are wanted in other sections for crimes of more serious nature.

The miners of the western states

A Heroine of Lucknow

An interesting figure in English his
tory has passed away in the person Of
Lady Inglis, who died recently at
London after a short Illness
Lady Julia Salina Inglis was the
second daughter of the first Lord
Chelmsford and was born in 1888.
She was the widow OF the famous
defender Of the British residency at
Lucknow, Sir John Eardley Wilmot
Inglis, K C. B.. who died in 1882, and
in memory of whose services in the
Indian Mutiny she had been in receipt
of a pension.
Lady Inglis herself went through
the siege of Lucknow, and in addition
to the terrors of the siege and the
subsequent journey to the coast she
was shipwrecked on the voyage home
to England.
She afterward published the diary
she kept during her eventful life in
the besieged city, where her hus-
band. then Brigadier Inglis, command
ed the garrison throughout the eighty
seven days the place was invested.
She describes the entrance into the
residency. on a day when glad shouts
