Tigers, driven from their mountain
lairs in the territory of Topic by the
scarcity Of food, continue to rayare
the haciendas of the valleys, says the
Mexican Herald. They are becoming
such a general danger that the munici-
pal authorities have offered a reward
of $40 for every tigers skin.
For several months great numbers
of the animals have swarmed through

consists of the county correspondents.
There are 1900 of these, each Of whom
has three assistants, making a total
force of county correspondents of
1880. The department has a list of
over 100000 other farmers, who are
called upon twice Il year for specific
facts which enter into the general fore
cast of crops just prior to harvesting
time.
The paid force, those who receive
some portion of the $4,000 set aside
by the government for the purpose of
maintaining the bureau, is small, but
capable 1t embraces the State agents
and the field men. The State statisti-
cal agents, one for every State, accord
ing to the plan, are paid from $500 to
$500 a year for about weeks work in
each month. They are kept posted by
the county correspondents, but they
are not dependent entirely on their re-
ports. They are allowed the greatest
possible latitude in the exercise of
their own judgment and are men of
standing and character in their various
communities. The field men receive 81
day and expenses. Literally con-
strued, their duties consist in moving
about in their own districts during the
growing season and gathering infor-
nation from any source accessible TO
them. They interview not only farm
ers and planters, but get information
from implement dealers, merchants,
bankers, stock growers, etc. They are
given the fullest possible op. srtunity
to form their judgment from the COM
ments of men on both sides OF the crop
question.

MAY LEAVE THE CITY.
Probable That Rev. |. w. Wheatley Will Be Transferred at Yuma
 Conference.

s. J. Rogers, Superintendent of Ari- zona Methodist Missions, with rank of presiding elder, arrived in the city last evening from his headquarters at Tucson. He is the guest of Rev. L. W. Wheatley. Mir. Rogers came to the city principally for the purpose of attending the last quarterly meeting of the local church for the year. This meeting was held last night. Its inn portance was principally in the report on finances and general physical con dition of the affairs of the church.
 Mir. Wheatley will leave the city next month to attend the annual coll- ference of his church, which will be held this year at Yuma on the 4th Of October. Inasmuch as Mir. Wheatley has been located in Bisbee for two years it is considered improbable that he will be returned to the city by the conference. Should this prove to be the case it will be matter of sincere regret to members of his congregation as well as to many friends throughout he city. NIT. Wheatley has made a reputation for himself here as a force ful pulpit speaker and as the posses sor of sterling qualities which have won for him general respect.

NATIONAL GUARD OF ARIZONA

Arizona marksmen will be repre- scented at the next annual competitive shoot at the famous Sea Girt, N. J.. tournament.
 For many years the shoot at Sea Girt has been the one great marks manship event in this country, and the determination of the Territory to have the advantage of the advertising and the possible laurel which is hung ID is 9 step forward which will un- loubtedly result in much benefit, say hose in the know.
 All members of the guard who de sire are in line for the competition, snd have about ten months in which 70 practice. At the end of that time. which will be few weeks before the tournament, those who have asked to ;ompete will be gathered at the gov s-nnent range near Prescott, where, aUder the supervision of the inspector oi rifle practice the fifteen men mak- ing the best score will be appointed to represent the Territory.

SNEAK THIEF STOLE WATCH.
Sale of Article Lead to Detection and
 Arrest.

Harvey Nash was arrested yester- day by Officer Jack White, and is now in jail charged with theft of a watch from the room of Andrew Johnson, a lodger in rooms over the Rehwald store on Brewery.
 Shortly after Johnson reported the theft of the watch. Officer White learned that a man had sold a watch at a five-cent saloon in Brewery. The purchase price was S4, and the amount so small in comparison with the evi- dent value of the watch that it imme- diately excited suspicion. Nash was shortly thereafter pointed out as the man who had sold the watch, and his arrest made. Later Johnson identi- fed the watch Nash will probably be arraigned for hearing today.

GOVERNOR KI6BEY AL RIGHT.

Every newspaper in Arizona should stand back of Governor Kibbey in the movement for equitable taxes because St is the first step of any Arizona ex- ecutive in this direction which had anything more than talk back of it. He should be backed up and not hin dored in carrying it out."-Phoenix Gazette.
 That's right. Governor Kibbey has taken the right course and the Terri SOrial Board of Equalization has fol mUed his advice. The rich mining companies of the sister Territory that pay remarkably high dividends are called upon this year for the first time to pay a fair share of taxes for the support of the Territorial, county and city governments of Arizona If not, why not? Governor Kibbey is cer- tE5nly entitled to the gratitude of the

THE COPPER SITUATION.


 In commercial circles there is ap- parealy an opinion that one of the effects of the termination of the war between Russia and Japan will be a decline in the price of copper There has been Q large demand for this metal for military purposes, which has stimulated all the American mines. Canadian and Mexican, as well as those of the United States, into unus- ual activity Yet with a greatly en- Iarged output consumption in Europe has been declining, as is shown by the falling off of its importations from this country and from Australia and Japan. During the first seven months Of this year Europe took from the United States 1S,SO3 tons less than during the corresponding months of 1993, and 25,OO0 tons less from Japan, while the figures for August, it is ex- pected, will show an even greater de cline. Within this same period of time China imported from this country 34,362 tons, as against 104 in 1904, ard 25,000 tons from Australia and Japan. Only a small portion of this total, it Is said, has gone into actual copsump. ton, and this demand is exPacted to cone to an end almost entirely Wit. tn. cessation of hostilitie- Ia the far east
 For some little time past the flow of Australian copper to China has been diminishing, and it is turning toward Euyope again, where it is being of Tered at a price less than that of the American electrolytic, although form erly it commanded a slight premium. With the war ended, it is thought that work al the Japanese mines will be fully resumed before many months have rassed. Their annual output is uGu..1y ebcut 3S,00O tons, .5i wLc!3 24, 600 are sent abroad, mostly to Europe, and sold below the price of American copper. Thus it will be seen that in the European markets no small amount of the American product will be displaced by importations from Osher countries. Yet in the face of this condition of things prices are strongly held ard efforts are na}ung to fo-ce them higher
 High prices for copper under ordi nary conditions cause in the end a de crease in the consumption, while stim uIafing production. This usually re suits in a break in prices, which then faH to an abnormally low point, caus ing great disturbance to the trade Ii is small wonder, therefore, that the present situation is described as one that is causing some excitement and nervousness in the London market, anC the developments of the next week ol tE0 will be awaited with much inter est Those engaged in pulling tho price of copper are believed to have ; very strong financial backing, bu combinations for such a purpose hav' been known to meet with reverses ii the past and may do so again.

Troubles Of Austria=Hungary

London, Sept. 27.-The correspon-
dent OF the Morning Post at Budapest
says:
The situation here grows worse
daily. The radical element threaten
to swamp the Moderate party into, ir-
reparable action. Public references
to the dynasty are made in a tone
which II is impossible to reproduce.
The principal newspapers urge the
formation Of one great party under
Francis Kossuth. This is supported
by Kossuth. Count Apponyl and Baron
Banffy. Z
Other special dispatches represent
the situation as serious, but say 1t is
evident that the conservative elements
hesitate to countenance the driving Of
matters to point where compromise
would be impossible.
The Daily Telegraph's Budapest cor
respondent says that extreme excite
ment prevails, accompanied by de-
termination to keep up the struggle
to the bitter end. The correspondent
continues:
1.-THE independent party is believed
to have secured 100000 new adherents,
while the other Liberal party has
broken up. The partisans OF Kossuth
have also obtained the upper hand in
quarters which formerly were dominat-
ed by the Socialists"

the coalition leaders are doing every
thing to keep popular excitement from

SHAW'S SON WORKED.

Seattle, September 17.-William p.
Shaw, son OF Secretary Of the Treasury
Shaw. arrived in Seattle today after
spending the summer working In a
salmon cannery in Alaska. Young
Shaw was sent north by his family,
who had formed the idea that It would
do the young man lot Of good to get
out in the world, see something Of life
and incidentally hustle bit for him
self. The boy, who had fully deter
mined to go to Alaska. finally secured
employment as a waiter on one OF the
Alaska boats, and In that manner
worked his way up the coast to Alaska.
Once there he left his ship and pro-
ceeded to seek employment. This he
finally found in a cannery, and worked
there industriously all summer long.
AS soon as he returned to Seattle and
civilization he hunted up a number Of
old-time friends and proceeded to hold
merry reyel with them.
