cORBETT DEFEATED sUL,LIyAN
The Frisco Fight Was One Sided Affair After
the First Four Rounds.

& San Francisco, March Young
Corbett won easily from Sullivan last
evening. The first fottf rounds were
fairly even, but Corbett secured a big
lead after that and Sullivan never had a
chaisee. Sullivan demonstrated that he
was dead game and could stand lot
of punishment. He made good inn
preston here and will probably be
matched against some less terrific hit
ter than Corbett. In the eleventh
round Referee Graney stopped the
battle and awarded the mill to Corbett.

Santa Cruz Jury
 Observes Secrecy
IS PROBABLE THAT R. ALLYN LEWIS AND JOHN DYSART
 ARE INDICTED.
Several Bills Returned Into NosaIes Court on Saturday But No Names Are Mentioned.

At the Nogales court on Saturday several indictments were found by the grand jury. and were turned into court at the same time. but no information could be had as to the names of the persons indicted. From the fact that secrecy was observed it may fairly be inferred that indictments found are, with one exception against persons who are out of the jurisdiction of the territory. A little more of the process of deduction would indicate that Johu Dessart. l.. F. Swain and R. Allyn Lewis are all indicted. The reason for secrecy apparently lies in the ab- sence of the defendants the theory be ing that their arrest could be accom- plished more easily if publicity is not given to the action of the grand jury.
 Gen. Lewis has repeatedly asserted that he would come to Nogales at any time if his presence is required. and his counsel confirms this declaration. He is in St. Louis at present.
 l.. F. Swain was in Oakland Coli. fornia, about a fortnight ago. but no one here has recently heard from him. The beIef is gaining ground that swain will not return to Nogales,
 John Dessart is confined in the Ter rltorial asylum at Phoenix. His men, tai condition will preclude his trial. certainly for the present.

Graham Co. Bandits
 Capture a Boy
CARRY HIM AWAY WITH THEM
 INTO THE MOUNTAINS.
Posse Formed and Went Into Pursuit Running Fight Occurs and Boy is
 Dropped on the Trail.

According to the Tuscon Citizen a visitor from Stafford, Graham county, says that a cowboy who comes to Saf. ford once a week for mail for the Black Rock ranch, in the Gila noun tains, brought news a day or two ago of the Kidnapping of Thomas Wardell, a F year old boy on the Black Rock ranch, and his subsequent recovery after fight with the bandits.
 The foreman of the ranch and his cowboys were out on the round up with the exception of John Earl, left in charge of the ranch and the Wardell boy, a son of one Of the men. Shortly after night-fall on Wednesday, three men, whom Earl did not recognize. rode into the corral around the house and dismounting, raised their rifles and ordered Earl's hands up. He succeeded in slipping inside the door and barricaded it. The outlaws pour ed such a hot fire after Earl that in a few minutes the door was no more than sieve, and after making feeble effort to return the fire. the ranch house capitulated and the outlaws took possession. Earl was tied hand and foot and the place searched but noth- ing valuable was discovered One of the outlaws then suggested carrying off the frightened child, to be held for ransom.
 Some time after they had departed Earl succeeded in freeing himself Of the letters which bound him and rid ing madly to the roundup camp told his story. Drue Wilson headed a posse of six men. who followed the trail of the outlaws to the Blue river, where they were overtaken. In the flight that followed bhe posse was handicapped by fear of killing the boy, but the outlaws, outBumbered and hampered by their captive. finally abandoned the child, dropping him on the trail as they fled.
 The posse camped on the scene of the fight, expecting to take up the trail the next morning, but a heavy rain fell in the night, completely obliterating all traces of the outlaws.

Birmingham, N Y. Aug. 31.-FoT- n1er Senator David B. Hill opened the Democratic campaign in Broome coun- ty today in a speech at the agricul- tural fair at Deposit In the course of his address Senator Hill touched up- on the tariff question, sayiLg he be- lieved in an honest revision of the tariff laws, so that vast corporate in terests should not be subserved to the detriment of the people Refer ring to the financial interests of the country, the Senator said:
 The gold standard has been irrevo- cably established. so that there is no necessity of a change; the Democratic party, which established the present currency system. can safely be trust ed whenever the necessity shall arise, to make such changes for the best in terests of the people"
 Speaking of the essential differences between the Republican and Demo cratic parties, the speaker said the diff ference is that the Republican party stands for private purposes and the Democratic party for public purposes.
 Theodore Roosevelt is the Republi- can candidate for the presidency" declared MT. Hill. lis fraud At the time he took his oath of office in Buff falo after the assassination of Presi- dent Mckinley, he declared in public he would simply fulfil MT. McKinley's s plans; that he would not look for re- nomination Later on the same train with McKinley's dead body he gave out a statment to the press that he thought he had misunderstood by the public, which meant practically that he was cadnidate for the nomination. The Republicans had him on their hands and could do nothing but re- nominate him"

Fl Paso, Sept. 1-Inquiry into the history of J. s. Knowles. the man who fell dead last week when he was ar rested for swindling the Lowden Ma tional bank, brings out the fact that Knowles was a professional rascal. Though a married man he was eE- gagged to a very respectable young lady in this city, to whom he repre- sented himself as a single man.
 It was reported around town that Knowles and that he signed his onw Knowels and that he signed his own name, U. S. Knowles" to the check given the Lowden bank, and that it was not his intention to mislead the bank people relative to his identity But yesterday a Times reporter saw the check given by Knowles to the Shelton-Payne company and the sig nature was U. H. Knowles" Cashier Wingo of the LOwden National bank, speaking about the matter, said:
 Two of the bank force heard him state twice ulainly at the window while I was waiting on him that he was J. H. Knowles, manager of the Chiricahua Development Co The draft on New York, which is now in the mails, but which may be seen by any one who cares on it's return, with in five days, was signed J. H.
