During the past week two resi- dences on Hills flat have been en- tered late at night by someone who was no doubt bent on burglary. The first occurred at the Hill residence Sunday night while George Trues- dale, who is caring for MT. Hill dur ing his illness, was absent to secure d doctor. The would-be burglar en- tered through the front door and pro- ceeded to the dining room. MT. Hill heard him in the rear rooms, and get ting up out of bed, secured his gun and then called to know who was there. The thief immediately ran through the hall, and by the time MT. Hill reached the door he had made his escape into the street. On Mon day night a residence on the fiat which is now occupied by two men who work at night, was entered and ransac acked for valuables. During the past three weeks a number of burg laries and attempted burglaries have occurred here and at MOrenci. The burglar seems to be very bold, and is also quite successful in his undertak- ingS.

WALKER $ WEEKLY LETTER OI
 AUGUST 4TH.

| AUGUST 4TH.
 There is danger of a runaway copper market. Lake and cleo trolytic are selling for 15l to 15s cents per pound, and there are more buyers than sellers. Most producers have sold their product as far ahead as October, and are out of the mar ket except for later dates. There is strong demand for spot deliveries, and it is this that is forcing prices higher. The efforts of the leading producing and selling interests to prevent this advance in prices have been in vain. They felt that 15 cents per pound was high enough, and as consumers seemed well satisfied with steady market at that level, it was thought best to discourage specula- tion and to deliver all their copper as rapidly as it could be produced and refined. By this means the market was held down to 15 cents for several months, though it was a period of steadily gaining consumption.
 Exports of copper during July, so far reported, were 17,2l3 long tons. It is expected that Pacific port ship ments, when all in, will swell this to above 1S,000 tons. It is understood that the falling off in July was due to some arrangement between some do- mestiC producers and foreign con sumers by which certain shipments were delayed until this month. The foreign demand continues very strong, with the exception that there has been d slight temporary letup in the Chinese buying. Europe is talk ing very large amount of our copper.
 Those who can see nothing but ,1-,,, I who pretend to doubt the legitimacy of the present demand for copper, will do well to study the instrument statement for June, put out this week by the American Telephone com pany. It gives the net output of telephones for the month as 68, 12S, compared with 39, 16S in June of the previous year, something like a 40 per cent. increase. The total in crease in the Company'S outstanding telephones in the twelve months was 970,631, or nearly p per cent. When it is realized that each of these 97O,- 63l new instruments installed, as well as the scores of thousands of others that were put out by independent companies, required circuit of cop per wire, besides coils, switches, switchboards, etc, it becomes plain that the telephone business alone must consume the product of at least one very large copper mine. This growth in the use of the telephone constitutes a reflection of industrial progress and expansion that cannot possibly be misleading.
 While it is to be hoped that there will be no stampede, it cannot be de- nied that the price of copper is likely to be forced up to 16 or IS cents per pound. If aggressive buy ing for Chinese account should be re- go to 20 cents. As all the copper that the mines and reduction works of the world can put out is now com ing to market, there would be no supplies of metal to take care of a further sudden expansion of demand.

George Samuels, the well known theatrical manager of New York, has completed a~circuit of towns in the southwest, with headquarters at Las Vegas, and will bring -uut-a big company of especially engaged play
 CTS from New York, to present a series of standard productions.
 Elaborate scenery and novel electri- cal devices have been constructed and for the first time local theatre goers will have chance to see a
 play mounted with as close attention to accuracy and detail, as when it was originally produced. Each set has been built to conform to the size of local stages, and everything is new and complete. The company will make the tour every seven weeks, presenting two plays of wide ly different characters at each visit, and taking a complete new scenic equipment each trip. Mr. Samuels believes that the returns will justify the great expenditure, and that Southwestern theatre-goers will ap- preCiate his efforts to please. The first productions will be '"The De- searted Bride" and "The Man From MeXiCO.n

Ph. Freudenthal, manager of the Commercial Company at Solomon vile, spent a couple of days in Cliff ton last week. He is quite enthusi- astic over the prospects of the early building of the Santa Fe railroad up the valley for connection with the main line at or near Silver City. This, he thinks, will forever settle the county seat and county division ques- tion. However, he says that if it comes to a question of division, the people of Solomonville prefer to be in the east end of the county rather than in the west end. As Solomon vile is so near the center no doubt the line could be run few miles to the west of the town and thus secure that rich section for the eastern half, or the new county.

E. U. Beauchamp, of the Barrett Beauchamp company, returned this week from an extended hunting and fishing trip in the Mogollon moun- tains. Owing to the fact that two of Mir. Beauchamp's valuable horses were stolen, the trip was extended considerably longer than was the in- tention when the party left Clifton, but barring this incident the trip was greatly enjoyed. MT. Beau champ says that the country is in better shape than it has been in many years. Fish and game are plentiful, and there is an abundance of feed everywhere. MT. Beauchamp has always been quite enthusiastic over the Adams diggings, and spent some time in searching for them, but with the usual results. He has no doubt, that the famed diggings will soon be found, as Duffey Morrow, one of the most energetic pros pectors in the country, is now on a hot trail, and will be in soon with oodles of gold. Duffey, who heretofore has been one of the doubting Thomases, now has the story straight, and has a lead pipe cinch on them. Duffey will no doubt soon blossom out as the Walter Scott of the Mogollons, though he is not in- clined toward breaking railroad records.

A KILLING ON THE BLUE.
J. R. Snyder Shot and Killed by His BrOther-in-Law, George
 ThOmnSOn

| IuOnpSUus
 On Tuesday of last week J. R. Sny- der, a prominent ranchman of the Blue River country, was shot and killed by his brother-in-law, George Thompson.
 On Monday last Deputy Sheriff Toll Cosper arrived in Clifton with Thompson, who was anxious for a preliminary hearing. As there were no witnesses present at the killing, District attorney McAlister post poned the hearing until Monday next, in order to give the territory time to bring out all the facts in the case. Thompson's bond for appear ance was fixed at 5000, which he was unable to give, and he will remain under the care of Deputy Sheriff Cosper until time set for his trial.
 MT. Cosper states that trouble had existed between the two men for some time past over water rights, which eliminated in the shooting when the two men met on the road Thursday last. Snyder was armed with a pistol and a club, both of which he had in his hands when he was shot. The pistol was not cooked, but was fully loaded, and from the fact that it was in his hand when he was killed leaves no doubt that he intended to use it. He was shot in the forehead, instead of the back of the head, as had been previously re- ported. Snyder leaves d wife, who is a sister to George Thompson, and seven sons, ranging in age from five or six to twenty years of age.
 After the trouble Thompson made no attempt to get out of the country, but remained at home waiting the arrival of an officer to take him in custody. He claims that the act was done in self-defense. MT. Cosper stated that the sentiment of the com munity generally is with Thompson, though the entire community where the two families reside greatly de- plores the tragedy.
 Frank B. Laine left this morning via Albuquerque for Portland. He will return via his old home, San Jose, California, and will be accom- panied home by Mrs. Laine, who is spending the summer there.
 Col. Epes Randolph, of railroad fame, is now to the fore with the big gest gold mine on earth. It is located in the Alter district, Sonora, and from newspaper accounts its hummer. It is claimed that there is now something like 5,OOO,OOO, in in sight in the property, and that no doubt at least $1O0,OOO,OOO will be taken from the property. A milling plant will at once be erected.
