eStlng eXnlDltS Wnlcn VIII De lOuHu at the Worlds Fair at St. Louis is being prepared for shipment by Superintendent Alexander of the Indian School at Sacaton. M. M. Murphy will take active charge of the affair at the exposition. Ten Indians, Pimas and Maricopas, are to be sent to the fair together with their winter and summer huts. They will compose part of the Indian village and will weave baskets, make pottery, do bead work and bake their "pinoles" and "tortilla" as they do in their native haunts. Two carloads of material will go forward to St. Louis next week and the Indians will be sent there about the 10th of May. The Indians will be selected for their skill in basket making and cook ing. An old Pima chief and his squaw and a papoose will go with the party.
 Enterprise: Late yesterday alter noon an indictment was returned against w. k. Murphy. late chief clerk of the office of the Surveyor General of the Territory. This is only renewal of one of the indict- ments found at the last term in which the defendant was charged with bribery. This was the case in which it was alleged that he had received from Mrs. Emma Miller of Tucson, $460 for the greater ex- pedition of work upon certain mineral claims which had been sent to the office and which in con sequence of the receipt of the money paid by Mrs. Miller were advanced out of their order in the business of the office. A demurrer from this indictment was being argued before Judge Kent at the time of going to press this after noon. At 3 o'clock today the Grand Jury made findings in the case of A. A. Pratt of Wickenburg. He was indicted for embezzlement. The case of A. A. Pratt, charges him with stealing money from the postollice at Wickenburg. At the time he was assistant postmaster under Postmaster Sanders. His particular method of obtaining money was to raise money orders from $1 to $100. In this manner he obtained between $500 and $500.
 Citizen: Colonel Epes Randolph has personal supervision of opera tions on the Gila river in the inter est of the Southern Pacific, with 1000 men and 250 teams to direct in the establishment of a grade and laying tracks. R. R. Coleman, the the railroad contractor, and k. A. Mcfarland, chief engineer of the Cananea, Yaqui River and Pacific railway, are busy lieutenants of Colonel Randolph, both of whom have large experience in railroad building The Randolph forces began work under the name of the Arizona Eastern, who filed maps at the Tucson land office of the survey, two hours and twenty minutes ahead of the Phoenix and Eastern company, which company, it is claimed by the opposition, jumped onto an eighieen mile stretch of the Arizona Eastern sur vey on the north side of the Gila river. The Phoenix and Eastern is an adjunct of the Santa Fe road and like the Southern Pacific is desiring of making the cutoff. The
