Territorial Fair.

The business men of Phoenix held a meeting Tuesday night for the purpose of taking steps to secure the territorial fair, providing for which a bill was passed by the late legislature. The bill provides for the appointment by the governor of three commissioners, whose duty it should be to take charge of and hold territorial fair annually at some proper place in the territory. The legislature appropriated sl5, 5,OOO for the erection of the necessary build ings and improvements, and further amount of 7,5O0 to be added to the gate receipts for use in the giving of prizes, purses, etc. Phoenix business men thought Phoenix the proper place, and at the meeting Tuesday night raised s23, 100 by subscription, which was increased the next day to SPA, 45O. Those in charge are confident of in- creasing the amount to at leastNS30, 900 within a few days.

DEPUTY SHERIFF ARRESTED.
Charged With Murder of Captain of tng-
 fish Identified by Sailor.

A squad of rangers in charge of Sergeant Sparks of Globe, arrested Deputy Sheriff Lee Hobbs, of Graham county, at Clifton, Friday night of last week The prisoner was immedi- ately taken to Phoenix where he is confined in the county jail. He will probably be taken to London, Eng land, for trial.
 The crime for which Hobbs was ar rested happened on the English freight steamer Lancaster Castle, enroute from San Francisco to the Orient, about three years ago. It issaid Hobbs melted the crew to mutiny and himself shot the captain of the vessel, afterwards with some companions escaping from the vessel in small boat. The rangers were accompanied by a sailor of the vessel, who identified Hobbs as soon as he saw him.
 Hobbs claims to be innocent and says that he can prove that he was in the territory and acting as deputy sheriff at that time, and that he had never been on sea going vessel in his life.
 The warrant was issued on com plaint of Courtenay Walter Bennett, British consul general at San Fran cisco and was signed by Judge Kent.
