tXTRADlTION OF
 EMBfZZLtR HAYES
Governor Klbbey Honored the Requi.
 sit on Papers Yesterday.

The requisition papers issued by Governor Higgins of New York, for the return of Richard F. Hayes to New York City, to answer the charge Of embezZlement, were received at the office of Governor Kibbey yesterday and were honored by him. The extra dition warrant was issued and for warded last night to Dominick C.. Riley, the New York detective who came here after Hayes and who is now in Bisbee awaiting it's arrival.
 Hayes is the man who gave himself up to the Bisbee officers a couple of weeks ago, or thereabout, saying he zling a large sum of money, the amounts, mentioned at different times, aggregating more than a hundred thousand dollars. He said he had been successfully evading the minions Of the law for a year or two and had grown tired of being hunted He fur ther intimated that he believed he had influence enough to secure a light sen tence for his crime and preferred to go back and face the issue rather than remain a fugitive.
 Later Hayes changed his mind and Hld1ldSeu lO secure ms release by ha- beas corpus proceedings. being later arrested as fugitive from justice After his apprehension the New York authorities were notified and Hayes was at once indicted. though on a charge of small magnitude. so far as the dollars and cents are concerned. It is understood though that the New York grand jury will be given r1cts Inc 0f return as many indictments as they may want to. The one on which the present action is ba~e1 was only for the purpose of getting him back into the state jurisdiction. He acted in a confidential capacity for manufactur- ing firm and no one at this time seems to have made public just how much money he diverted to his own use.

ALL PREPARATIONS
 ARE NOW COMPLETE
For Fl Paso's Entertainment of the
 Mining Coz sress.

Fl Paso, Texas. Nov. 6.-All plans are well advanced for the meeting in Fl Paso of the American Mining congress, November 14 to IS. business mems committee of 100 has been busy with the arrangements for several months. Including what has been spent already, the city of Fl Paso will have spent s10,000 for the congress by the opening day. It is safe to say that the entertainment provided will be equal to any ever enjoyed by the congress.
 First, and most important, of course, are the sessions of the congress it. self. Care has been taken that the purely entertainment features shall not interfere with the more serious business.
 The directors and officers of the congress itself have planned the pro- gram of the sessions so that there shall be something of value to every body interested, directly or indirectly, in mines and mining. There will be something to interest the mine laborer and the mine owner, promoter and capitalist. merchant and engineer. prospector and investor Assurance
 
 papers will be permitted to take up the time of the sessions, but all such will be read by caption, their sub stance outlined, and the papers them selves placed in the official record of proceedings.
 To entertain and inform the vis- itors there will be lectures illustrated by fine stereopticon views, there will be displays of ores, of machinery, and of photographs. One of the most note worthy features of the congress week will be a visit under escort to the great smelter of the American Smelt- ing & Refining company at Fl Paso, where 1900 men are at work and a ton of ore is reduced every minute of the year.
 One big special feature will be the drilling contests. Miners representing every important mining camp in the great southwest will compete for s2,0O0 in prizes. and it is safe to say that some splendid records will be made. The men who have twice broken the worlds record and twice won the worlds championship will go
