PREACHERS HEARING HERsEY CHARGE Sessions Being Held Behind Closed Doors and No h.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-The ecclesi. astical court of the review of the sec. ond department resumed today its hearing of an appeal from the decis- ion of the diocesean court in the dio- cese Of western New York, which convicted Dr. A. S. Crapsey, rector of St. Andrews Episcopal church, Ro- chester, of heretical teachings. Ad- journment was tatn until November 10, which. a deci: :,o on will probably be rendered.
 Today's session was held behind closed doors. The members of the court later refused to tell the temper of the body toward Dr. Crapsey. One member, however. did say: We lave determined that justice shall be done. Some of these men have come here repeatedly at large expense and from great distances. Justice we are at- tmpting to get and justice we are de termined to have if the heavens fall -I do not know how the church will like it.

GREENE 0F PHOENIX
 NOT \ J0|MT|ST
Report That Phoenix Man Fa- vors Joint Statehood Is
 EmphaticaIly Denied.

The jointists are standing around on
 the street corners talking about the
 growth of the movement until some of
 them actually believe it is growing and
 some of the less observant anti-joint-
 ists have a spread of the insanity, says
 the Republican. When a iointist is asked in which direction the movement
 is spreading, or, who are some of the more recent converts, he is unable to
 answer directly, but throws out hint
 that will tend to reflect upon the judg-
 ment of some well known citizen. In
 little while the word Is going about | that MT. So-and-so has come out for | jointure.
 In this way report has been in cir culation, calculated to damage the rep utation of R. H. Greene as a man of soand judgment It was stated that Mir. Greene was one of the recent con
 verts to the craze.
 Speaking of the report, MT. Greene yesterday denied it with warmth. He could not see how any one who knew
 him could believe it. Mir Greene said that from the very beginning he had
 been in favor of separate statehood,
 but since that seemed tied up for the time, he was as vigorously opposed to joint statehood. He had gone over the
 matter with great thoroughness and he had been unable to find a single tenable argument in favor of jointure. There was no phase of the entire proposition which could benefit the people of this territory in a mass or
 individuany. On the other hand, there
 was hardly phase of it which did not
 threaten the prosperity of the terri
 tory for all time to cone. In the opin- ion of Mir. Greene property values
 would suffer, and his business, that of real estate dealer. would be disastrous ly affected. The effect of jointure on his business would be reflex of it's effect upon conditions generally
 MT. Greene said that he had received letters from friends in different parts of the country suggesting to hin the advisabiiity of jointure Those friends it happened, had no interests here and knew nothing about the country. Mr. Greene replied to them that if they were better informed ragprding condi tops they would have different idea of the statehood question
 Mir. Greene repeated that in all he had heard and all he had read in sup port of iointure he could see nothing which promised bettermept for the people of this territory. There had been no suggestion of any advantage tc Arizonans. It was certain that there is nothing now in New Mexico that the people of this territory should | desire and how then. he asked. could | anything come out of the union that | could improve our own canditions.
 Travelling men who visit all parts of | the country. have noticed the persist 1 ency with which the jointists here 1 make claims of growth. They were l surprised when they found that the | 1ointists were actually serious about | 1t. Elsewhere iE the territory. they said that while at first the novelty of | the proposition attracted some inter- | est. the statehood proposition was now regarded as a joke.

PHOENIX FAIR WILL
 BE RECORD BREAKER
Some of the Fastest Horses in United States Will Par
 ticipate in Races.

] B. A. Packard. member of the ter
 ritorial fair commission, arrived in
 Phoenix Tuesday morning from Naco.
 He will be there the greater part of
 the time from now until after the fair.
 assisting in the making of the final ar
 engagements.
 When asked concerning fair mat ters, MT. Packard said:
 All of the committees are hard at
 work on their respective portions of
 the program and every one is striving
 to make the fair one of the very best.
 and there is not doubt in my mind but that they are going to succeed. Of course, the big feature of the fair will be the races, and l can assure you that the horse~ which have en- tered to date are the fasest there are | in the United States today. We have one horse entered with a record of less than two minutes, and on Friday of fair week he is scheduled to go against the worlds record. In the other classes the horses are all well known, and many of them have marks which in- sure mighty good exhibits The prizes are liberal, and as a conse- quence horsemen from all parts of the United States have entered their strings to start The racing program is now practically completed, and from now on the horses will be work ed out on the track to keep them in trim.
 On account of the large number of entries it was found necessary to en- large the stables. and at the present time we have 150 stalls, with large number still under course of construc- tion.
 The live stock exhibition is also going to bring out some of the finest cattle, draft horses. mules and other classes of animals that has ever been put on show. All of the cattlemen of the territory are taking a great inter- est in the exhibition. and are doing their best to carry off the prizes.
 "Of course the drilling contest has attracted a great deal of attention. and the committee has already re- ceiyed entries from miners throughout the territory
 From now on until November 12 l all attention will be devoted to ar ranging the large number of details | which are connected with an affair i of this kind. From all parts of the | territory come reports that the at ] tendance will be enormous. It seems l that the people have become thor oughly interested in the fair, and that | they intend to support it."

BIG SHELTER FOR KELVIN.

To treat the ores of the Kelvin di ,- ir:ct on he ground, without the ey- pense of long shipments capitalists are now planning the erection of a 200-ton smelter at Kelvin. 2 repre- sentative of two different concerns being at that place at the present time, says the Phoenix, Enterprise.
 Tom Smith, who has just returned from Kelvin and will return there within the next ten days for a short stay, stated that people with plenty of money to carry out the project have been considering Kelvin for some time as shelter site.
 w. T. F. Donnell, superintendent of the Oriental Mining company, which is operating property in the Cave Creek distII.t. ias been in Kelvin several days, and is studying the conditions there before laying proposition be- fore eastern capitalists to construct a large smelter and reduction plant.
 Rapid development during the past few months of the mineral possibili ties around Kelvin has made the need of a large shelter to handle the ores on the ground imperative. The out look for the district is such that east ern investors have been giving the district much attention lately.
 Smith predicts that inside oi the next five or six years Kelvin will be a second Bisbee. Millions ot tons of , and 6 per cent copper ore are in sight, but now unmined because of the expense getting the ore to snielt- CT.
 Smith is interested in the Calumet esv Df L. One car of ore is being shipped daily 10 the Humboldt smelter, but arrange Jnents are being made to incre ise this to two or possibly three.
 Several other properties n the same district are preparing to -ncren; ;e the working force and take out moro ore fer shipment, the higher grades being selected and the lower rilcd on tbe dump until such time as thr-e is q smelter closer at hand to handle the product
 Mining men interested around Kel- win have been making a united effort for some time to get people into the district who will share their confi- dence to an extent that will lead them to make an investment large enough to bring about the building of large SuuCiltf.
 Three separate parties are said to be looking the ground over at the pres ent time. Each of them have suffi- cient backing to make an investment of s1 1,000,000 if that amount should be necessary to build a smelter that would handle 200 tons of ore day.
 Smith states that with a smelting plant that could handle or 6 per cent copper ore there would be sev- eral times that amount ready for treatment. In his opinion one smelt- CT would be but the forerunner :or others.
 W. B. Twitchell. who was in the city yesterday, left for Kelvin lais Within the next thirty days he will have a ten-ton reduction plant in operation on the Big Lead property. which has several thousand tons of , per cent ore in sight that can be quarried out at small expense
