c. E. Mills, general superintendent of the Detroit Copper ' company, at Morenci, has been in Prescott since Wednesday, on mining business, and incidentally is seeking to engage good mill carpenters. He finds this class of mechanics rather scarce just now, the supply being far short of the de- mand.
 MT. Mills said that he is very well satisfied with conditions at Morenci, and that the mining outlook is good and will be better. The Detroit Cop per Company's eoncentrator will be increased from a 700-ton daily capa- city to ], 200 ton capacity. It is be- ing worked up to the limit at the present time, this increase in capacity being merely in the natural order of events.

 Putnam eorroborated the preceding witness, and added that defendant Courtright and Pailez were on each side and to the front of Blevins, and intimidating him. Howery was sneaking around at the time to get in the rear of witness. He did not see Dan Eaton in the crowd.
 For the defense Eaton was briefly examined, and as there had been no evidence to implicate him in the of fense, Judge Sloan ordered his dis missal.
 w. R. HOwery testified that he was only a spectator, and made himself scarce when the gun play started. He was in the saloon, heard the abusive language, but did not mingle with the crowd when it emerged into the
 street and collected around the com plaining witnesses.
 Royal Courtright, the next witness, and one of the accused, was dancing a jig when the two non-union men en- tered the saloon. He was asked by Hoskins with others to have a drink. and, of course, according to the bar room etiquette of Vivian, he promptly accepted. While at the bar, Hoskins inquired who the two men at the end of the bar were, referring to Blevins and witness replied, "They Ire a cOu- pie of scab boys.' Then Hoskins broke loose, and commenced his tirade of abuse against the two men. Court right claimed that he was not in the crowd, viewing the scene from the porch of a saloon, but that he saw Moore following Putnam.
 Defendant Pailez testified substanti ally the same, and added that after the saloon had been cleared that Howery, oourtright and himself separated from the crowd, and went away. Witness was closely eatechized by the court, taking witness to task on several points of his testimony.
 This closed the testimony, and At torney Fred W. Morrison, who appear ed for the German-American Mining Company, which had secured the writ of injunction against the strikers, as serted that it seemed to have been clearly proven that the three defend

Charles Morgan Is Cleared by a Jury

Charles Morgan, accused of shoot ing Deputy Sheriff Hartsfeld at Me Cabe, was acquitted yesterday evening in the district court.
 At 6 o'clock the jury signifed it's readiness to bring in a verdict, and Judge Sloan was summoned. When the court was convened at 6.3O o'clock the jury filed in, and presented the verdict.
 The course of the trial was marked by an entire absence of anything sen sational. The direct and cross-exam- ination of all witnesses being very short
 Mark Boston was the most damag ing witness to the defense, testifying that he held Morgan to prevent him from firing the third shot. It seems that Morgan fired two shots at Harts- field, the first shot taking effect, the second shot going wide. Hartsfeld, in return, fired one shot at Morgan, miss ing his assailant Morgan was then disarmed, and hostilities ceased.
 The attorneys for the defendant en- tered a plea of self-defense, and he was acquitted on these grounds.
 The prosecution rested its case with out argument, which proposition was agreed to by the defense, the ease going into the hands of the jury i'm mediately after direct and eross-ex- animation. However, the jury requir- ed three hours to reach an agreement.

 ''The weakness of your case is that these defendants should tolerate such an act. They were cowardly trying to influence Hoskins to do that which they had not the courage to do them selves. When a crowd gathers around man and lends support by its pre- aence, that is what intimidates and terrorizes.'
 In these words Judge Sloan address cd himself to Attorney O'Sullivan at the conclusion of the evidence yester- day ;n the contempt case growing out sf an alleged violation of an injune- tion issued by Judge Sloan at King nan last April, by four strikers.
 The defendants in question were: sAas. Eaton, J. E. Pailez, Royal Court right, and ". R. Howery. The princi- pal witnesses against them were two Hon-union men. D. N. Blevins and D. G. Putnam, who alleged that the strikers assaulted them on May 3.
 On the evening of that day Blevins and Putnam went into Rays saloon at Vivian to take drink, and Blevins testified that Lee Hoskins a few min ntes later came to where he was stand ing and called him "seab," coupled with some vile names. Hoskins rub bed up against him again and renewed the abuse. Mrs. Ray, wife of the saloon owner, ordered them not to make any trouble on the place, and HOskins invited witness to come out and fight. Witness said he was a peaceful man, and was not looking for any trouble Hoskins was so loud and abusive that Proprietor Frank Ray ordered the entire crowd out of the saloon. All of the defendants, with the exception of Eaton, were in the place at the time of the disturb ance, and were leaders of the crowd that later formed a semi-circle around witness and his companion in the middle of the road Defendant Pailez struck him and Putnam then drew a gun.

STRIKERS ACCUSED OF
 CONTEMPT OF COURT
Four Men in Prescott Jail For Violating the Courts
 Injunction

Under-Sheriff Joe P. Gideon, and Deputy Sheriff Asa Harris, of Mohave county, brought four men from King man last night, who, it is alleged, are guilty of violating the strike injunc- tion issued by Judge Sloan on April 3, sitting in the district court at King man.
 The names of these men are W. L. Howrey, Royal Cartwright, L. E. Parliz, and Chas. Eaton, and the charge against them is contempt of court on a writ returnable before Judge Sloan this morning.
 The injunction in question was is sued upon the petition of the German American Mining Company, against which company a strike existed, the strikers being enjoined from all man ners of disorder, posting pickets, plae- ards, riOting, and interfering with any men employed by this company.
 These four men, it is alleged, com mitted an assault upon the person of two of the men employed by the Ger man-American Mining Company, strik- ing and beating one of them, upon which his companion pulled a gun, and warned them to desist.
 The arrest of six men was called for. but two managed to get away before the officers of the law could locate them.
 Attorney F. W. Morrison, counsel for the German American Mining Com pany, accompanied the party in the in- terests of his clients, also having three witnesses with him, prepared to go on with the case, but as the alleged of lenders have no witnesses, it will ne- cessarily have to be postponed.
 The four men were taken to the county jail, searched, and stored away with plenty of blankets behind the bars.
 The German American Company op- crates in Mohave county, near Needles, and after the injunction was issued by District Judge Sloan, still experienc- ed trouble. Non-union men who were being brought in by the German-Ameri- can company, were met on the tram by strikers on the California side, and were induced to return, in most cases the men beinp maid their fare hv the strikers. As the injunction does not have application to California, the strikers had full swing and they have given the company considerable trou- ble. An assault upon the non-union men at Kingman was therefore in vio- lation of the injunction, and conse- quently the offenders placed them selves in contempt of court.
