THE OLD SILVER KING
 A SUPPOSED 100000
Its Present POssessOrs Waiting for
 History to Repeat Itself.

Dr. Charles H. Jones of Tempe, was in the city yesterday. Dr. Jones is not a superstitious man. but he is waiting with more than ordinary curiosity to see if history is going to repeat itself in the case of the Silver King mine
 Some time ago, after that old prop erty had lain idle for many years, it was jumped or relocated by Dr. Jones, the late J. P. Wells, B. Matley and Captain George D. Christy. At the same time they jumped a law suit, which was amicably settled by the re- locatOrs being permitted to take a bond on the property.
 Soon after thIs settlement was af- fected, MT. Wells died and it was his death that set Dr. Jones to wondering whether history intended to repeat it. self. It has already shown a disposf- ton to do so and if this disposition is manifested any further the bonding syndicate will probably dissolve, though the members say they will not and maintain that they are unafraid.
 Several years ago this property was located by another Dr. Jones, with whom there were associated three men. Soon after they had come into posses sion of the property one of the men died, just as MT. Wells did. Within a vrey short time afterward, another sickened and died and the third man believing that there was a hoodoo on the property threw up all connection with it and left the country.
 The circumstances in which the for mer syndicate came into possession of the proprety were much the same as those attending the possession of it by the present syndicate. It has been in controversy and idleness for a long pe- riod of years, and then. after death had thinned the ranks of the possessors it lapsed again into such a state until the supposed hoodoo was revived by the second Dr. Jones and his asso- ciates.

St. Petersburg, July 17.-Threats of a police strike nearly caused panic here today, and though the strike has been postponed. the danger cannot be said to have entirely passed. The os~ tensible basis of the police discontent is monetary, including the accounting of the mems savings fund, for which it is alleged they have not been allowed in terest. The authorities, however, de- clare that the trouble has been inspir- ed by agitators.

S. L. Smith, prominent contractor of Montgomery, father of Louis Smith, the young Montgomerian now in a San Francisco prison on charge of com p1icity in the robbery of Edward F.

 It will be remembered that it is al- legged that young Smith and Ike Abra- ham connived with two California thugs to rob Edward Taylor of s55 on which he was to return to Mont ley as he, Abraham and Smith were returning to their home in San Fran cisco from, a stunning" expedition. Abraham, so the story goes, was. ar- rested, confessed and implicated Smith and on this implication he was held by the grand jury.
 "The testimony of Ike Abraham" said Mr. Smith, alone duplicates my son and no jury on earth would con- vict on such testimony"

|DR. STONE IS DEAD
PROMINENT MoNTGoMERIAN sUC-
 CUMBs TO ILLNESS.
Was well Known Physician And PIant- CT and Was Identifed with Com- munity for Over Fifty
 Nearn.

Dr. Henry L. stone. one of Montgom- ery's most useful citizens, died last night at 10 o'clock at his residence on the corner of Bibb and wilkerson street after an illness of several weeks
 Dr. Stone had been in bad health for some time but with the bravery and modesty that has marked his en- tire life, he bore his sufferings with patience and his death was surprise to many of his scores of friends
 He died as he had lived. among the people of Montgomery county. He had intended for several months to move his family to Oklahoma, where he had purchased a magnificent home. In fact all his furniture with the ex- ception of a few necessary household effects had been moved to the vest ern territory and one, of his sons, MT. Frazier Stone, was hurriedly called from the new home to the life long residence of his father, to his parents death bed.
 Dr. Stone was born about eight mlies from Montgomery on June 24, 1S46. His father. Barton w. Stone. was one of the county's foremost citi- zens. He was educated at the Univer- sity of Alabcma and while cadet there aided in the defence of Tusca- loosa against Croxtons raiders, who burned the University buildings and destroyed the institutions records.
 After the war, he studied medicine at Tulane University, at New Orleans and afterwards in Baltimore. He re- turned to Montgomery to practice his chosen profession. Dr. Stone was a successful hpysician, but bad health compelled him to retire from the active practice and take up the calling of a farmer.
 He was an extensive planter in Mont gomery county until the day of his death. In Montgomery there were few better known men than pr. stone. His disposition was amiable and he made friends readily. His first thought was ever for his family and then for his friends.
 Thirty-six years ago he was mar ried to Mss While Frazier, a mem Der of one of Montgomery's oldest families. He is survived by Mrs. Stone, three sons, Frazier tSone, E. Wadsworth Stone and Henry l.. Stone. Jr., and three daughters. Misses Carrie Stone, Ilamae Stone and Willie Stone.
 He was a member of the Court Street Church and was earnest in It's work.
 The funeral Arrangements will be announced later.

CHARGES AGAINST REYNOLDS.
Nominations Held up Until They Car
 be Investigated.

Washington, Jan. 12.--Chargcs against J. W. Reynolds. re-nominated by the President as Secretary for New Mexico. was considered by the Senate Committee on Territories today and the confirmation will be held until charges can be investigated. He is charged with being an offensive parti- san, but this did not have any effect on the committee.
 Former delegate Rodey charged him with bull-dozing the delegates of the last territorial convention in order to accomplish the defeat of Rodey for re-nomination.
 The serious charges against Ray holds are that when acting as Cover nor, he pardoned notorious criminals for political effect; that he had manip- uIated his office so as to secure largo fees; also that he and former Cover nor Otero had by some unfair means procured lands eight miles wide on either side of an important stream, which they use for sheep ranch.
 The Statehood fight enters into the matter to some extent and Reynolds is opposed by the faction which Is seeking joint Statehood with Arizona.
