Benefit Ball Friday Night.

A number of the most prominent
Mexicans of Clifton met at the A. H.
A. hall Sunday last to provide means
of relieving the destitute people of
California. The meeting was adj
dressed by Consul Romero, E. Gomez
and others. The editor of the Star
was elected secretary. 1t was de
cided to give a grand ball on Friday
evening next, the proceeds of which
will be sent to the Mexican consul in
San Francisco to be by him turned
over to the governor of California to
be placed by him where in his judy
ment it was most needed. The best
of music has been secured, and Il
grand time will be had. In addition
to the bale there will be a number
of other schemes by which money will
be raised. Tickets will be sold at
fifty cents each. The bale will be
given in the A. H. A. hall. The
Mexican people have already SUBJ
scribed literally to the various
papers which have been circulated
throughout the works, but they are
not yet satisfied, and expect to net a
considerable sum on Friday night

Morenci 5. Clifton 0.

Morenci base ball fans. than whom
there are no truer sports, were made
happy last Sunday afternoon when
the hill city team swiped up the
locals to the tune of so. 1t was one
of those phenomenal games pitched
by Billy O'Brien, who kept the hits
so well scattered that 1t was impossi-
BILE for Clifton to score.
The game started off in a rather
brisk manner with O'Brien and Weis-
becker opposing each other in the
box and it was hard fought battle
between the Irish and the Dutch.
Morenci finished the first half with a
blank and with two men on bases and
sleep and allowed Weisbecker and
Doran to run together on an easy pop
foul. Weisbecker dropped it. This
caused him to lose control and four
successive singles netted Morenci
four runs. Outside of this inning
WeIsbecker pitched good game and
did not deserve the harsh criticism
he received. Morenci scored one
more in the fourth, which ended the
run-getting.
About the greatest surprise was
old horse Mcclellan, who is not like
Sampson, the strong. His hitting
was so poor in the first game that he
decided to shave off his mustache
with the result that he got four sim
giles out of five times Up. Shave your
head, Mac, and you will be perfect.
Fowles, the Morenci second-base-
man, walked to first three times Sum
day and that is about the only Chance
for him. However, Clifton had boy
in green VINO really caught the grand
stand with his heavy hitting. Cap
tain Quigley just gave him a chance
to show up.
The Morenci boys played clean
game of ball and ended the game
with just one error, which is remark
able, considering that they have no
ground on which to practice.
The Clifton boys were short Daniels
and Quigley last Sunday which no
doubt made a great difference, es-
pecially in hitting. Dunn and Ellis
Williams secured two hits each and
Ellis succeeded in mailing a runner
at home plate from deep left. Quill
ing stabbed a line drive with one
hand which was the star play of the
game. Play the game again by read
ing the following score:

A dastardly attempt was made
this week to wreck the passenger
train on the E. P. &. S. w. near
Bisbee, by placing one hundred
sticks of dynamite on the track in
such a manner that it would be
struck by the wheels of the engine.
Fortunately the dynamite was
discovered a short time before the
arrival of the train, otherwise the
entire train would have been wrecked
and blown to atoms. Hanging is
entirely too good for the scoundrels
who would attempt such an outrage.

Gil on a common piece of paper,

tanned this short message; "All we'll.
Not burned out, )" and was signed P.
Murphy. 1t was the first word Mr..
Murphy had received from his people

EXPECT VOTE TODAY.
Tillman Makes Weak Defense OF
Chandler, Closing the Incident.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-With
the exception of the anti-pass amend
ment, the senate concluded the dis
cussion of the railroad rate bill in
the committee Of the whole, and as
soon as that provision is disposed of,
will take the bill up in the senate.
1t is expected that the pass question
will be disposed of early tomorrow,
and the general hope is that the bill
may be passed before the close Of to-
morrow's session.
The greater part of today was spent
in the discussion of the eighth section
of the bill, relating to the personnel
OF the interstate commerce commits
the entire section and restoring the
present law which provides for five
commissioners at salaries of $500.
While the debate on this section was
in progress, Senator Tillman took the
floor in behalf of ex-senator Chand-
der, which had been momentarily ex-
pected since Senator Lodges denial
to the senate Saturday of some of the
amendments attributed to Chandler
by the South Carolina senator Till
man read portion of Chambers
memorandum, which has already
been made public, concerning the con-
ferences with the president, prefac-
ing it with brief statement of his
own. stating that on Saturday the
senate had been startled and morti-
fled to hear the utterances of an ex-
member denounced as on behalf of
the president as deliberate and
unqualified falsehood.
When Tillman concluded, Senator
Allison read the presidents letter to
him (AllisOn) in order that the let
ter might be made as permanent of
record as Tillmans speech. This
closed the incident.
