HObOs Arrested.

On his return from Ash Fork last evening District Attorney Clark re- ceiyed a telegram calling him back there on official business and he re- turned on today's train. Two hobos suspected of being connected with the death of Conductor Foster were under arrest and will be given a preliminary hearing either at Ash Fork or Selig- man. The suspects claim to be inno- cent of the shooting. but admit hay ing been on the train from which Con ductor Foster fell to his death under the wheels, or was shot to death. They say that they were riding on tn front end of the car, on the rear of which Foster was, and that they heard two shots fired but did not know who fired them.
 There is some doubt whether the conductor was shot in the head as stated, or whether be was shot at all, enc theory being that when the shots were fired at him he missed his foot ing, fell under the wheels and death resulted from his hsIne run over. is remains were scattered for 8 long dis tanee along the track.

Was Tired of Living.

St. Louis, March 1.-Sick and des. pondent, Am5s B. Ayres, for. nearly thirty years we'll known in the whole sale dry goods business of St. Louis, ended his life by swallowing carbolic acid. At the time of his death Mr. Ayres held the position of manager of the travelling salesmen of the Fergu- son-McKinney dry goods company His wife is prostrated, and said by physicians to be in a critical condi- tion.
 A year ago Mir. Ayres fell on a slippery sidewalk and broke one of his arms. s me weeks ago he fell again and broke his other arm. Two weeks ago he suffered severe attack of grip. According to his wife, these misfortunes preyed upon his mind until he became temporarily de- ranged.
 It is evident that he carefully planned to kill himself. How the car bolic acid with which he ended his life came to be in the house, none of the family can say. Mir. Ayres went down town for a short time and it is thought be bought the poison then, c needing it until a good opportunity for using it presented itself.

BRYAN ON CLEVELANDlSM.

In the last issue of the Commoner, in an editorial under the heading
 Reorganization Means Cleveland ism," W. J. BFyan says he is con vinced the plan of the democratic re- organizers is to nominate Grover Cleveland for the presidency if they are successful, and adds:
 'The democrats of the country are under obligation to MT. Cleveland's s friends for the frank avowal of their purpose to make Mir. Cleveland the nominee in case their organizers gain control. "
 MT. Bryan then quotes an interview with the president of the Memphis Commercial Appeal company in the Brooklyn Eagle, in which the party is advised to nominate Mir. Cleveland without his consent, saying, under the conditions, he will not refuse to run, and concludes his editorial as follows:
 AS an evidence, the reOrganlZers will give no quarter, it is asserted that, while the delegates may differ as to the most available reorganiZer to nominate, no man favorable to the Kansas City platform will attend the next convention as a delegate.
 ''This is an example of the har- mony, which is so much talked about. and suggests what may be expected when S 'reorganized' administration begins to deal with those who were faithful, to the ticket. The old Cleve- landism was bad enough, but it would be a hundredfold worse if to the sor- didness that characterized it before there is added to it the spirit of ven geance which animates it now.

RUSSIAN BEAR IS GRUMPY.

The following from the Los Angeles Express in reference to Russia is to the point:
 ''From the tone of Russian neWspa- pers there is evidence of strong feel ing in that country against the United States on account f'the apparent at titude of the American people and press sin leaning toward the side of Japan in the contest for supremacy in the far east.
 '..ln replying to the Russian iudict ment of ingratitude it will be neces- sary to take advantage of the legal practice of offsetting. It is true the United States is under obligations to Russia for the stand that nation took during the American civil war. with out questioning the motive. It also is true that this country still retains an admiration for the ezar for his in itiative in connection with The Hague peace tribunal.
 "But, on the other hand, there are several reasons why the American cannot hold Russia in high esteem. There can be no real fraternity be- tween autocracy and democracy. Am ericans may be misinformed, but they have read a great deal about the hor- TOTS of Siberian exile, massacre of Jews, etc., which is not to their lik- ing. All this may have been colored, still the pen picture of conditions in the czar's empire, as given bS the highest literary authorities of that country has not efaced the unfavor- able impression.
 Furthermore, there is a feeling in this country that Russia has been far from frank in her treatment of the "open door" question in China, and as the United States has been the fore most advocate of that policy it is not surprising that a coolness exists be- tween the two countries, especially in view of the tact that Japan has given approval of the plan to save Manchuria fur China and keep the door of trade open. While the admi- ration for Japan may be more or less artificial the popular attitude in this country is obviously guided by the wisdom of choosing the lesser of two evils. !"

Fire in Rochester, \. Y.

Rochester, \. 'Y., Feb. 26.-A great fire started in the heart of the busi- ness district of this city early this morning and is still raging iercely
 The weather is ideal for fighting fire, as there is scarcely any wind blowing.
 Had there been even moderately high wind the fremen could not have prevented a repetition of the Balti- more fire.
 The firemen are, however, battling under great difficulties, as many of the water mains are frozen up.
 At seven o'clock telegrams were sent to Buffalo and Syracuse for as sistance. Ten Syracuse fire fighters have arrived, but were somewhat de- layed by the severe cold.
 The fire started in the basement of the Rochester Dry Goods company, and was caused by an electric fuse blowing out.
 Dynamite is being used to check the spread of the flames.
 Commissioner of Public Safety Gil man, estimates the loss at nine o'clock at between five and six million dol lars.
 Chief of the Fire Department Little at,S:45 said he believed the fire could be kept within the main street block extending from St. Paul street to North street unless it crossed to the south side of Main street. In this event large portion of the residence section of the city will surely have to go.
 The contlagration is the worst in the history of this city.
 The loss chiefly falls on Sibley Lindsay, Curr & Company, Beadle Sherburn company, Rochester Dry Goods company and the Walkover Shoe Co.
 The only accident so far reported | is the injury of Assistant Chief Frank | Jaynes, who was struck on the head by | a flying nozzle.
 The fire area is being guarded by a large detail of policemen.
