Bisbee daily review., 1906-05-15

l < Frederick Taylar, Gates bnsrrefs and benevofent representative of John D. Rockefeller. accompanied by J. H. McClement. Masters Russell ates and Morgan McClement. and MrGates' pri- vate secretary. was Bisbee visitor yesterday. The party came in one of the private cars of George J. Gould. and were here to inspect the workings of the Calumet & Arizona mine ia which these gentlemen are heavily in Nterested.
 "we are enjoying a little jaunt throughout the west and are combin- ing business with pleasure" said MT. Gates yesterday when interviewed in his car on side track in the Fl Paso & Southwestern yards.
 No" said MT. Gates in reply to a question. we are not looking after Mir. Gould's interests in this section. Mir. Gould kindly proffered us the use of his car and we are simply using it, that's all"
 Mir. Gates was dumb as to whether his visit at this time has augh to do with any interest of Mir. Roekefeller's in Bisbee mines.
 ''we are slightly interested-Mr. McClement and myself-in holdings of the Calumet & Arizona company. but our interests are only such as would naturally lead us to feel curious as to how things are being done here, nothing more.
 You may say that We are struck with the rush and hustle of your city and in the short walk which we took through your principal business streets have been impressed wfth the pros perity that is evident on every hand. My. but you are a busy crowd of peo- pie to be away out here in the noun tains. IL is almost incredible. even af- ter seeing your city. to believe that

Both Ready and Confident for Their Bout at Opera
 House Tonight.
HEAVY WAGERS ARE
 PLACED ON RESULT.
Raison Will Weigh Lighter of Two, But Is Trained to Min ute and Well Versed-Big Crowd Is Assured.

Interest in the wrestling match to
 be contested tonight at the Opera
 House by Raison and Walter Bowman
 has scarcely been equalled by that us-
 ually taken in the prize fights between the champions. Betting on the out
 come of the match has been spirited, and so far as has been learned the bets were placed at even money. One can hear from the admirers of Raison that there is nothing to the
 match but a pipe to it, and that it is all RaiSon. On the other hand, the
 admirers of Bowman are just as con- tident that his strength and grit will prove too much for the barber. While the Reviews sporting editor would not presume to pick a winner
 in advance, it might be we'll to remark
 that the match will prove no cinch for either of the contestants. Many base their opinion that Raison will win on the fact that he is in superb condi- tior. But is he? Raison is a fel- low who is always in good condition,
 and it is possible that his overzeal- l ousness to be prime for tonight may
 have resulted in drawing himself too | fine
 Bowman has always been a strong. gritty youth, and he has a good head ! that will serve him well in a pinch. Raison is older at the fine points of the game, but many are of the firm belief that Bowman has improved in 1.-the past year to such an extent that he will prove master for the blonde physical culturist. However that may be, the match should prove one of the best contests ! that has been witnessed in Bisbee, and whoever loses will have given his packers a good run for their money. Most of the betting yesterday was done at the Turf and Orient saloons At the Turf about s200 had been wag- cred at even terms. At the opening Bowman money was all that was in sight, but this was soon covered At the Orient the betting was much more spirited. over s1,000 being wagered. 1 Downs and Whaley, proprietors of the Orient, were among the heaviest bet ters, and they placed their money on Bowman. At late hour last night
 it was reported that much more bet ting was going on with no change in l the terms
 Each man thinks that he has no
 chance to lose, and Bowman was seen
 to place some good amounts on him self yesterday at a time when the bet | ting was most lively.
 According to the terms of the match i Bowman is to weigh in at 130 or less. He said last night that he will weigh
 in at less than that. Raison will un-
 doubtedly be lighter than his antagon- | ist by three or four pounds.
 The advance sale oftickets pressges
 full house when the men meet on
 the mat. Raison will have the ad-
 vantage of such mature coaching as
 can be given him by Rasmussen, the doughty little New Yorker, who has participated in so many bouts. Patsy Harrington will be behind Bowman. A. | E. Hurst will referee the contest.

BoHNSTADT MAKES
 GOOD NTH LOCALS.
 -eGssacsi C
Score g to g at End of Ninth lpning - High Wind and Bnockefs Betract From the Pleasure of Attendants.


 Those who attended the baseball game at Don Luis Sunday witnessed one of the most exciting games played on the local diamond this season. Bis bee defeating Douglas by a score of 10 to g.
 Bohnstadt was in the box for the reds and showed excellent form, hay ing fourteen strike-outs and several assists 10 his credit at the end of the game. i.~sssKHY
 Hodge played behind the plate ana made a, good showing. Hodge has a wonderful whip and any base runner who tried to steal found it generally accurate.
 Considering the high wind and dust which made playing difficult. probably the greatest disadvantage was the Judging of balls hit high in the air. It was next to an impossibility t. judge accurately where they would fan. and the natural result was several errors
 Bisbee was in the lead until the eighth inning, when Douglas by a few good hits made three runs, which then made the score to : in favor of Douglas. In the ninth Douglas scored again. At this stage or the game the spirits of the fans reached a low ebb..
 Bisbee scored two runs in the ninth and Douglas one, tying the score which necessitated the playing Of an- others innings. It was in the tenth in ming that the boys got together and with a few well placed hits won the day by score of 10 to g.
 Umpire Graham's decisions were accepted as being correct. only by a few who are present in crowd of that kind. and are at all times ready to condemn an umpire.
 One of the outfielders not being able to play, Captain Dugan asked Jerry Kelly to play a position :n the outfield. He better not do it again.
 Martinez, who pitched for Douglas, proved an easy mark for Bisbee as he was found several times during the game for good hits. and it was only his excellent support that kept the score down.
 notwithstanding .he combined ef- forts of the knockers and the wind and dust the game was won and the reason for the victory was good strong [ plsying. It is not known at present { whether 8 game can be arranged for Sunday between Cananea and Bisbee or not The management at Cananea has heen wired and the answer Miu prrhab.y be given today.
 The lineup in batting order was as follows:

SLICK IMPOsTER Dean Elliott, Arrested in Los Angeles Worked Several
 People Here.
MAY HAVE AIDED BREWERY ROBBERS.
Claimed t, Have Eil' '! ,, Lost sl' All n aSeoD Disaster, LeHiRg Pltin
 ful Tale toeBisbee People to
 Get Easy Money.

Claiming in Bisbee that he was a San Francisco refugee, who had lost all, but recognized when he went from here to Los Angeles as a "yegg- man" of the worst type, Dean Elliott, alias Prescott and several other names. Is now in the county jail in the City of Angels, while the officers look up his record.
 Elliott arrived in the city shortly after the San Francisco disaster, and going to Mayor Caven. to whom he un- folded pitiful tale, obtained a letter to Assistant Master Mechanic W. G. Fraser of the Calumet and Arizona, where he was put to work in the cleo trical department.
 Not satisfied with an opportunity to earn a living, Elliott told Fraser of the terrible time he had been having. The story was repeated to several others, and purse raised for the i'm poster.
 Among other claims made by Elliott was that he had been in Korea, work ing as an electrician. He left there after burying his wife, and landed in San Francisco with his 5-year-old son and an invalid sister two days before the earthquake.
 Barely escaping from falling ouiid- ing, Elliott said that with his relatives world. Added to this was the un- fortunate death of his invalid sister. who had been killed while walking along the street with his son by 8 sign that fell from a height of five stories.
 Elliott said that he then moved to Los Angeles with his little son. who was i'll and had to have medical at teBtion. In that city he was unable to get work, so he said, and came on to Bisbee, having heard that tn.re~ was plenty to do here.
 Just after securing his position with the Calumet and Arizona, Elliott show ed telegram from Los Angeles, say ing that his little boy was dying and he must come at once. More money was raised for him, and he reached Los Angeles on May ,. No sooner did Elliott arrive in Los Angeles than a Pinkerton agent spot- ted him as a dangerous character, and he was landed in jail. While there he telegraphed to Fraser for more money. and the latter among those who had known Elliott at the Calumet and Ari- zona. sS5 was raised and sent to Elliott, who was then in jail.
 Elliott's getting this money aroused the suspicion of the Los Angeles Pinkertons, who wrote to Marshal Snodgrass for information. The latter looked the matter up, and has tele- graphed the Los Angeles officers to recover as much of the $S5 sent from here as Elliott still has.
 In letter written by the Pinkerton agency to Marshal Snodgrass an Op,n- ion is expressed that Elliott while here acted with the men who robbed the Copper City brewery in Douglas skort~ time ago, blowing open safe and getting 5000.
 "Yeggmen" are 8 most desperate and cowardly class of criminals who seldom take the risk of participating in robbery. hold-up or safe cracking, but assist those who actually do the work, keeping under cover as much as possible.

TOMLlNSON GETS AN
 OPTION AT JOHNSON.
CHICAGO PARTIES ARE INTER EsTEp WITH HIM AND GROUND
 ADJolNS PEABODY.

When c. E.. Tomlinson, formerly a broker nthis citye but now of Chica- go reached Bisbee last week, it was a well known fact that his visit had ro do with a deal of mining import ance, but not until last evening did the importance of his business become known. Tomlinson came here for the purpose of securing an, option on ground in the Johnson district on be half of Chicago capitalists, and when he left for his home in the Windy City he had delivered the goods"
 The ground secured by TomIfnson adjoins the Peabody group recently purchased by W. c. Greene, and in this fact lies the importance of the deal.
 TomIinsons familiarity with the mining interests of this section of the Southwest, has made it possible for him to be of invaluable assistance to Chicagoans. and his watchfulness of the movements of the wise ones no doubt resulted in this last move.
 It has not been learned who the probable purchasers under the Tom linson option are, but it is safe to say that they are men of sufficient means to develop the property for ali it is worth.
 Last evening a corps of mining en- gineers from the Franklin w. Smith office were sent to the ground cover ed in Tomiinson's option. They will be on the ground for the. next two weeks making surveys and reports for the benefit of Tomlinson's people. The party is in charge Of Charles Stauber

HUACHUcA SOLDIERS.
 WILL NOT BE THERE.
OWING TO TARGET PRACTICE AND HOLIDAY AT FORT THEY
 CANNOT COME.

; The veterans who had hoped that a chuea post might be induced to come to Bisbee and participate in the Me morial day exercises. will be disap- pointed. The information that ir will be impossible for the soldiers to be here was received in a letter to Rev. Harvey M. Shields yesterday. The reasoned assigned is that the soldiers are to engage in three days target practice on the days of the 2sth, 30th and 31st. and Memorial day being holiday at the post. it would be i'm possible for any of them to come and participate in the practice Neither can they come on the Fourth of July as had been hoped. ..
 The letter to MT. Shields who wrote them, inviting them to participate iu the exercises, follows:
 Fort Huachuca, A. T. May 14, 1906. Reverend Harvey NJ. Shields.
 "Bisbee. Arizona, Dear Sir:
 The commanding officer directs,me to acknowledge receipt of your very kind invitation of the 10th instant, and To express his appreciation of the offer of the Chamber of Commerce. He regrets, however, that it will be impossible to send any considerable number of officers or men at the time on account of the troops being in camp and engaged in the annual rife range practice. Memorial day will be a holi- day with appropriate ceremonies at the. post for all the command. but if any went to Bisbee, they would lose the dag before and the day following. and on account of the limited time available for practice we could not af- ford to lose the two days. t2sth and 3Ist). The conditions on the Fourth of July would be the same
 -Regretting very much the condi- tions and wishing the Chamber of Commerce success in rneir patriotic movement. I remain,
 Yours sincerely.
