 Both suits have been hotly contest ed. 1t being the policy of Senator Ives to secure continuance of the libel suit from term to term on various pre- texts, while the defendant Darlington fought as determinedly to bring the case to trial. In this feature Senator Ives was eminently successful. ss we have never even been able to get aim into court on that libel issue

GAMBLING HOUSE
 HELD UP WITH SAND

A prominent attorney of Baltimore told the following story to one Of his colleagues recently of the time when he was in the west when the gold fever was at it's height:
 One of the largest gambling houses in San Francisco was in full swing when, in walked two men, one or whom carried a large powder horn. They ambled up to the bar and the man with the powder horn threw it on the counter and sai din a lond voice: I am tired of it all and shall end it here, but may as well take my friends along with me.
 He then dumped out on the counter a quantity of what looked to be pow der. His companion took from his pocket some of the same stuff and threw it into the fire, whereupon black smoke puffed out from the stove. By that time tn egamblers looked around and were mortified to see the other one seize the horn and throw the contents into the stove.
 .aThe whole company, thinking there would be terrible explosion, jumped to their feet and scattered. With joyous laugh the two men ran over to the tables and scooped in all the money in sight-a goodly pile-jumped on their horses and galloped away.
 'To say that the players were in censed when they returned would be putting it mildly. It turned out upon investigation that it was only black sand that the two desperate men threw on the counter,
 The lawyer asked why when one of the men threw some of the stuff in the stove it created volume of smoke. The other thought he must have had some real powder in his pocket

EDITOR DoRRINeToN
 FREE OF BURDEN NOW.

The Arizona Sentinel thus relates now it has been relieved of a burden:
 The litigation between Eugene s. Ives and J. W. Darlington, editor of the Sentinel, which has been pending in the district court for several years, has at last ended in a compromise.
 The first suit was brought by J. w. Darlington on promissory note for s115e against Ives. Judgment for the amount, with interest and costs, was obtained in the district court, but the defendant appealed. Shortly after the filing of this suit Senator Ives, as a means of retaliation, as 1t appeared,

M'NAMARA HERE ON
 -p U SECRET MISSION.
Dstensibly for Purpose of Lo-
 eating in Bisbee, Hanford, California, Attorney Gets h. {. formation for CeIestials,

Ths1deus M. McNamara, Chinese lawyer. is not Chinese by long shot, but his business is to attend to the legal rights of Chinese within the borders of the United States, and he makes that his exclusive practice.
 Ostensibly here for the purpose of locating, Mir. McNamara dropped into the city Friday evening under the wing of Probate Judge Frank Good body. Last evening, before leaving the city, McNamara freely gave his views to a Review reporter ant pro duced proof of his connection with some of the most influential Chinese in California.
 Now, his credentials might have told that he was the High-Muck-a-Muck Of the inner circles of San Francisco's Chinatown, but they told nothing to the uninitiated. Suffice, however. ac- cording to MT. McNamara himself, he carries with him letters in Chinese writing to show his standing with Cali fornia clients among the Celestials, and these letters he is carrying about with him for the purpose of gleaning such information as may be of service to his clients.
 Asked if his visit at this time had aught to do with the rumored trek of large numbers of Celestials toward San Francisco, McNamara looked wise. Said he: 'T am an attorney who makes a business of looking after the legal interests of Chinese. I like them as a people, and have made it my life's work to do all that can to right their wrongs I am here now for the purpose of interviewing some of them in your section on legal busi- ness. That's all. I am also looking for a suitable location for my son, who Is a physician. You have very pros porous camp here. and am favorably Impressed with it. As for myself, l cannot think of leaving California"
 And the Chink adviser was gone.

Sweeping up toward Carr's Peak from the west side. and threatening to rush down into Carr. Miller and Ram twas last night reported doing great damage in the Huachuca mountains, l twenty-five miles north of the fort of
 the same name.
 Several who had a view of the
 mountains yesterday noticed a heavy
 white cloud hanging over one section.
 but not until a telephone message was
 seRt into Manager A. H. Gardner of
 the Huaehuca Water Company, was it
 known that the cloud was composed
 of smoke.
 While information is meager, it was reported to Manager Gardner that the
 fire had started on the other side of
 the mountains. swiftly climbed to the top, and at o'clock yesterday after room was in danger of sweeping down this side.
 As soon as he learned of the danger, Gardner wired to the War Depart
 ment at Washington, D. C., asking that orders be issued to the commanding officer at Fort Huachuca to have the soldiers ready to take the field and 1 fight the fire.
 When the last, word was received little wind was blowing. It was stated l that should strong galescome up, the fire might spread down into Miller, l Carr and Ramsey canyons, destroying
 a large number of mountain ranches
 and the works of the Huachuca Water
 Company
 | Thesn three canyons are heavily
 wooded, the trees consisting of small
 oaks, mesquite and some pine, all of which will furnish. fuel for a fire,
 forced by strong gale. Damage would result to the extent of thousands of dollars.
 Later reports from the Huachucas
 were that the Exposed Reef mine was I in great danger, and that if the fire
 was not turned the buildings and shaft i house might all be destroyed, along
 with the shaft timbers, if the fire could ! nor be prevented from finding its way l irto the mine.
 Residents of Ramsey, Miller and Carr canyons, along with the men em | ployed at the Exposed Reef. Prince.

postponed the inquest unli cioSh Monday evening The body was plac- ed in charge Of Undertaken Robert Hennesy and removed to Hennesy's morgue in this city, to await the in- quest.
 Insthe pockets eof the dead man s clothes were found the bank book mentioned in another part of this ac- count, and a weil-worn memorandum book of the kind distributed by the Washington Life Insurance Com pany. A brown canvas telescope, with the name of ". J. Murphy. San Francisco, printed on one end, was found in the saloon. This was brought to the Bonanza several days ago by the deceased. It contained but a. few pieces of wearing apparel.
 No reason is assigned for the rash act of the man, aside from the fact that he had been drinking and had possibly lost his money playing faro. It was rumored that he had lost heav- fly against the faro bank in both the Swim and White House saloons, but at both these places it is said by the management that he played very lit tie and could not have lost more than $5. He did not issue any checks al either of these places.
 Yesterday morning. as Judge Ho- gan was at breakfast in the restau- rant in the rear of the Fitzsimmons & Jennings saloon, Conner was at the counter and appeared to have been drinking some at that time. AS he arose from his meal, he spoke to one of the attendants, saying that Fitz' simmons or Jennings would square for the meal"
 Later in the day he remarked to J, M Cory that he would not be living in twenty-four hours, but Cory paid no attention to the remark and only recalled ii when he was summoned as juror to view the remains. Con ner's remark to Cory would seem to indicate that he was breeding over some matter of interest to himself and that he had determined to end 1t all by suicide He carried out his threat in terrible manner.
 Yesterday afternoon he called on Harry Jennings at the latter's place of business and gave to Jennings 3 package of papers said to be stock cer tificates in Bonanza Circle properties This could not be corroborated beyond the fact that he had some papers in the Jennings safe. as Jennings had retired for the night and could not be reached. Mir. Fftzsimmons, however acknowledged that in his safe were papers supposed to be the property of the dead man. Those claiming to have an acquaint ance with Conner in his lifetime as sert that he was a resident of Butte Mont, before coming to Bisbee. He has had the reputation of being a Hteady, hard-working man, and his debauch of the last few days was his only Aggression from the path of so briety since his arrival. He had lit tie 10 say Of himself or his friends. Yesterday he was sent for by the Wolverine foreman and requested to return to work. thus indicating the es teem in which his employers held him It is expected that there will be de velopments of nature tend ing to throw more light on Con uer's past history, as 1t was rumored ct Lowell late last night that there are several who were well acquainted with him at Butte when he wornsf there

WILL UPHOLD ORDINANCE
Constable La voy Will Keep Youths
off Streets At Night

Constable Joseph La Voy was called
before the grand jury in THE matter of
the curfew ordinance. it being claimed
that the law has not been sufficiently en-
forced.
The constable contended that he has
done everything in his power to live up
to the letter of the law. but failed to
enforce it in the case of young men
nearing their majority.
The grand jury took exception to this
and insisted that every youth under the
age of twenty-one years must be off the
streets by o'clock at night.
Teh constable holds that the present
trouble is due more to the carelessness
of parents than to himself, and says
that If the parents at fault would dc
their part by half he would take proper
care of his end in the case of youths
whom their parents could not control.

Aorbia today secured a warrant for the

The case will be taken up by the grand

The statements as to the occu renee
are conflicting. Arobia asserts that while
they were at Reirs ranch yesterday on
their way to Borax Lake with load of
supplies, Tompkins attacked him with a
blacksnake and would have done him
great bodily injury had he not broken
away. Arobia walked into Winnemlcca
this morning and secured a warrant for
the arrest OF Tompkins.
Tompkins side of the story differs
greatly from that of his partner. He
asserts that the mules had been acting
contrarily and that he made the remark
that he would use THE whip on them.
Arobia. Tompkins asserts, warned him
not to strike any OF the mules, at which
he (Tompkins) replied that he would use
the whip on Arobia. The latter, Tomp-
