Probes Insurance.

When the legislative inquiry into the
New York insurance Irregularities was
ordered the committee decided upon
legal counsel, and again difficulty was
encountered in securing it. The man
who had so satisfactorily served the
gas committee was travelling in Eu,
rope, and at the moment could not be
reached with an offer. The offer went
begging for a few days, until at last
a Brooklyn lawyer accepted. Upon his
suggestion, however, the man abroad,
who was really desired, was cabled on
the subject and Engaged to assist in
the work. After the work began this
assistant virtually became the lead
ing counsel. and conducted the inves-
tigation, which was of national inter-
est, in a way to merit and receive
national applause. He has become one
of the most conspicuous figures of to-
day.

the plans of this committee which had
been carefully considered, and chose the
Panama route, though generally adj

Effect of the Yates Campaign.

ST.. Louis Republic: If the plans an
nounced for ex-Gov. Yates campaign
against federal interference in Illinois
politics are fully carried out, the state
will have. this year. the first popular
contest for the United States senator
ship that il has known since the dem
ocrats of Illinois sent John NJ. Palmer
10 the senate Is years ago.
The issue between Gov. Yates and
Senator Cullom is that of boss rule and
machine politics. which has stirred
other parts of the country so deeply
during the past year. If Senator Cul-
lom could be induced to- return TO the
state and defend his political methods
in joint debates with Mr.. Yates. or
lotherwise, this contest for the senate
might become almost as memorable as
that fought out between Lincoln and
DougIes in 1858.
That Senator Cullom's methods need
defending is attested by the rising out
cry in Illinois against the federal Of
fice-holding machine which he and his
allies have in operation in every part
of the state. and against the local fed
eral crowds which sway undue influ-
ence in Chicago. in East St. Louis and
in every congressional district.
But Senator Cullom has gone 10 Flor
ida and will make no campaign in re-
ply TO Mr.. Yates assaults upon the bad
system on which Mr.. Cullom depends
for reelection. He stands pat upon his
record and his machine. and having
placed himself closely in line with the
president on all important measures
of the session he will doubtless re-
ceive whatever additional aid the ad-
ministration can give him. The hot
test of the fighting will be in Cook
county. TO which Gov Yates will de-
vote as much time as TO all the rest of
the state. where Senator Cullom' 8
federal crowd is strongest and most
numerous. and where no little opposi-
ton to it has been shown by the pO-
litical friends and appointees of Gov.
Deneen.
The time remaining is rather short
for the great contest upon which Gov.
Yates will enter on the last day of
January. He would not have had more
than enough time if illness in his fam
lily had not postponed the beginning of
his tour from December.
He may not defeat the willy veteran
against whom he sets his lance. But
by thorough exposure of. and well-Gi-
rected assault upon. the political boss
ism and machine system which are
Senator Cullom's principal political as
sets. Mr.. Yates can at least make for
himself a record that Will be of great
value hereafter.
The people of Illinois are thorough
ly tired of patronage-bought political
power and of boss rule in politics.
They will listen with hearty good will
TO Mr.. Yates in his crusade 10 check
federal interference in Illinois politics.

LOVES HIM STILL
 BUT WANTS DIVORCE Airs. Case Has Husband Ar. rested and Will Sue
 For Divorce

T loved him once-I love him still, but I must forget him. have gone my limit for him, and I have spent many dollars of my hard-earned money to keep him out of jail, and ill the face of all of this, he has desert ed me and my child, and I have done with him"
 This is the statement made by Mrs Anna Case, wife of w. L. Case. a painter, employed by E. G. Riley, after she had appeared in Justice Murphys court yesterday morning against her husband, whom she charged with using vile and obnoxious language to- wards her, with adultery as a minor charge.
 She stated that she was in a position to send him to the penitentiary for term of five years for an offeDse which he committed a little more than a year ago, but that she refrained from doing so on account of his being the father of her child. This offense, she claims, was committed when they were rooming near the Catholic church over a year ago.
 Another charge which she says she will file against him in a petition for a divorce soon, is that one night with in the past two weeks, while she was sleeping with him he took his razor, whetted it on the strap and laid it on the dresser, stating that night would be the end of both their troubles When he left the room to get drink, she claims she appealed to the land lady. who collared him when he en- tered the hall and ordered that no more trouble be had in that house This pacified him, and the night was passed in peace.
 Mrs. Case charges that she has paid his fines from time to time when he was thrown in jail for being drunk and given up hopes of his reforming, and will have no more to do with him. She has consulted her attorney, J. W. Ross, and petition for a divorce will be filed within the next three weeks.
 Case was arrested a few days ago on a complaint filed by Mrs Case. charging him with using vile language towards her. He gave bond for his appearance, E. G. Riley being his bondsman. When the case was called yesterday morning he failed to appear and forfeited his bond.
 Mrs. Case is to file a petition for divorce in a few days. but in the mean time will ask the court to place him under a peace bond as she fears he will carry out his threats to kill her.

ORFILA TELLS ABOUT
 SQUEEZE OUT GAME

Alleging that he had conspired with capitalists in Oklahoma to get control 'of valuable mining properties near Naco, and that he had failed to keep his word with the company in every respect, stockholders of the Arizona Mining & Development Company have brought an action against MT. Jones of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and others, to regain a controlling interest in the conpany and avoid it's being taken into control by the Oklahoma capitalists.
 Attorney A. Orfila returned yester- day from trip to Fl Paso and Tue son, where be has been in the inter- ests of the Arizona stockholders. In relating the story about the suit, he said:
 From the information I have been able to obtain after being employed by the stockholders of this company, find that ten years ago the Arizona Mining & Deyelopmest Company was organized At this time Mir. Jones of Oklahoma City was interested in these mines, and he promised to erect 2O- stamp mill at the time. He has failed to do this, but just recently he has caused to be erected at the mine To- stamp mill. This is his first breach of contract.
 Tn the second place. a few years ago, Mir. Jones caused the Gold Treas ure and the San Jose to be consoii- dated with the Arizona Mining & De velopment Company. This, ir my opinion, was done because a majority of stock was held by the capitalists in Oklahoma City, and would give them the control of the properties.
 Tn the meantime, Mr. Jones has bonded the company to the amount of S40O,OO0, and bought up these bonds. either himself or through his agents, at 10 cents on the dollar. These bonds are to draw per cent. It is a known fact that the company will be unable to pay the interest. and the bond holder, Mir. Jones. will be called upon
Bisbee daily review., 1906-03-13

for the interest. This he will be able to pay, but it will put him in a posi- ton 10 control the company, thereby squeezing the other stockholders out of the company.
 . T have investigated the matter thor oughly and l believe it is purely an at tempt to get control of the company by the Oklahoma people. We have the facts in the case, I believe, and a compromise will be effected in the near future. possibly the next two or three days, which will leave the Arizona stockholders in control" These properties are located nine miles from Naco. MT. McHenry is su- perintendent of the mines. Dr. Grandson, R. V. Daniels and H. Nj. Whitney are other interested parties. who are fighting to get the control of the properties back into the hands of Arizona stockholders. The properties are of gold, silver and copper ore and are regarded as very valuable For the past few years they have been kept behind in progress in order to squeeze the Arizona stockholders out
 
 few weeks ago from ore taken from the mines ran as high as $500, 900 a ton in gold alone.
 According to information received here MT. Jones, who is back of the Oklahoma capitalists to get control Of the company. is now sued by his wife for a divorce. His attorney has also sued for fees. Several other suits have been filed against him, iL is claimed, and he will be kept busy without the mining deal He has sug. gested a compromise which may be effected in a few days.
 Attorney A. Orfila, the Bisbee law yer who has taken up the fight for the Arizona stockholders, is thoroughly familiar with not only the American mining laws, but the mining laws of Mexico. He is confident the Arizona stockholders will make winning fight.
