The legal status of the foundlings recently cast upon the tender mercies of the people of Clifton still remains the leading subject of discussion in this city. When it was known that Governor Brodie had arrived in town last evening, the rumor soon spread that he had come with instructions from the president to at once secure the children and ship them back to the foundling institution in New York. Notwithstanding the utter ridiculOuSneSS of such statement. there were many who believed it. It is part of the Governor business here at the present time to investi- gate the matter carefully and report the facts. as he finds them to be. to the president. The governor will meet the ladies who have charge of the children at the Clifton Hotel this afternoon at two o'clock, after which he will visit the homes of the people where the children were originally left. After thorough investigation of the matter the governor will wire report to the president as requested An effort was made before Probate Judge Little at Solomonville yester- day to secure guardianship papers for the children by the people who now have them in charge. Lawyer Ben nett of Phoenix. who had been em- ployed by the institution. succeeded in having the cases postponed tempo rarily. J. R. Hampton appeared for the present claimants of the children.

 Governor Alexander o. Brodie, who it is generally conceded has given
 more general sh htisfaction than any other chief eXe5utive ever appointed to Arizona, will address the people of Clifton and vicinity at Library Hall tonight at s o'clock. The Gov ernor does nOtS consider himself a spell-binder or A campaign speaker.
 but he is nevertheless q fluent and interesting talk@r, and what is even of more importance. the high regard
 in which he is held by the people is d guarantee of his fhOnesty of purpose in coming here t4 address the people. 1t is needless tOsky that the Governor is a republican, ld that he is also in close touch withy leading politicians of the United StaItes. as well as with President ROOsevdlt. hence his utter ances in regard t@ statehood may be regarded as official. He is recently
 from Washington hence he is well informed concerning the attitude of the republican party on statehood.

As Norris X Rowe's circus was pull ing out of the Clifton yards one night last week. Officer Foster heard
 several shots fired and rushed to the train. He was met by man run ming rapidly down the track, attired only in his undergarmentS. The off cer threw his pistol down on the flee ing man and commanded him to halt, which he did. As the train was then moving out of the yards the officer could not ascertain the cause of the difficulty. The man was bleeding from wounds received in the head. but was not seriously hurt. He was taken to the tunnel and locked up, and his wounds dressed the next day. He refused to make any state ment in regard to the trouble, or to give his name, but he was recognized as the man who did the lion fighting act. As no charges could be made against him he was given his liberty.

The polling place is located in the sec.
ond story of the Fisher building, in East

with enthusiasm by an immense crowd:
He sprang briskly from the carriage and
ran UP stairs, entering the polling place,
and shook hands with the election judges.
He was given his ballot and retired i'm
mediateIy to one of the booths, remaining
in it scarcely more than half a minute.
AS he came out and handed his ballot to
the presiding Judge photograph was
taken AS he turned away from the ball
lot box he was cordially greeted by many
other friends and acquaintance who had
gathered to see him.. Descending the
stairs he entered the carriage with Mrs
]. West Roosevelt and went for drive

Roosevelt and Fairbanks, but many
WagerS have been made at shorter odds.
The interest of betterS centers on New
York and large sums have been wager
ed on the result in other states.
Odds of to / have been offered that
Roosevelt would carry his home state
and they have been accepted eagerly by
Democrats. Many bets have been re-
corded on the result also in Maryland
and West Virginia, but Republican
money is as scarce on the former state
as Democrat money is on the latter. A
final personal word from Republican
and Democratic leaders has been sought
by many people in Washington. AS a
result National Chairman Cortelyou,
National Chairman Taggart, William
F. Sheehan, Charles F. Murphy and
senators and representatives in congress
from both parties are being quoted
wherever discussion may be in pro-
gress. A Characteristic letter was re-
ceived here from Captain Seth Bullock
of Deadwood, S. D., a personal friend of
the president. He writes:
THE political outlook in the west
could not be better. The president will
carry Colorado, Montana and Nevada,
the three states which we thought were
doubtful. There is no question about
Wisconsin,, the majority in South Da-
kota will be between 81, ZOO and 10000"
