ENGINEER HALIHAN WILL MAKE TRIP THROUGH THE NOUN
 TAlNS SHORTLY.

CHIHUAHUA, May 15.-J. P. Hali- han, chief engineer of w. c. Greene's Rio Grande, Sierra Madre & Pacific railroad, is arranging to send an en- gineering. party through the Sierra Msdre in a few days. F.
 As to what is the exact object of this work is not made public. but it is reasonable to presume that it is to make the preliminary survey of the proposed extension of that railroad over the Yaqui valley for connection with the proposed branch of the South ern Pacific.
 It will be remembered that MT. Hali- han has already located the perma- nent line for the Rio Grande, Sierra Madre & Pacific railroad from it's present terminus at Nueva Casas Grandes. this state, to Santo Tomas, on the Chihuahua & Pacific. He has also found feasible route through the Sierra Madre into the Yaqui val ley. Col. Greens plan has always been to extend the road through the mountains on to the west coast.

DISASTR0NS MOUNTAIN FIRE
FIRES IN CHIRlcRHUA FOREST RESERVE SWEEP FOURTEEN
 MILES OF TREES.
Believed That Fires Were Started by
 Yaqui indians or Renegade Ameri- cans.-last Fire In Fucker Canyon.

Carelessness in leaving camp fires burning resulted in much damage L5 the Chiricahua forest reserve last first fire was in the t.ai"a sUrhood of Wlgus. about fourteeG res fror.

 The second blaze was que c? the most destructive ever occurring in week, says the Paradise Record. The the Chiricahuas. About ten square miles was, 1t is thought, burned ever, and the destruction Of one of the most promising orchards of young pine trees :n the entire reserve was com plcte. in this area the larger trees had been cut down twenty ye3rs be- fore As result young pine trees, ail the way from few inches to twen- ty-fiye feet in height covered the en- tire area thicI;ly They were all de stroyed.
 The fire began some time last Fri day, and was not eEtinguished until Monday. The fire occurred in Buck CT Canyon. or the southwestern side of the reserve ENCut ten miles from the wood camp of T. P. Blevjns. and approximately sixty-five miles from Paradise by wagon road. The smoke was plainly visible from Paradise.
 Fucker Canyon is in the territory If Ranger Bert Cosper who was do- ing excellent wcrt fighting the fire when Supervisor NcGlone arrived on the scene Sunday evening. as soon as possible after learning of the blaze. Twenty men were employed in fight ing the fire most of the force working night and day. Some of the men were so exhausted that they had to be car ried to camp after their work was fin ished. It wss Monday when the fire was over.
 The blaze was etarted by either Yaduis. trace of whom was found in the neighborhood or by an outlaw American. who had committed depre- dations at rench near by on the pre- vious day. The law against setting fires within the forest reserve is very strict and Supervisor McGlone and the rangers are empowered to make arrests for the osfenss whenever sufi- cient evidence is at hand.

tial in their country. The sultan knows how light his hold on the wi,d tribesmen, and feared less severity toward their chiefs could lead to re- volt. It would be so easy simply to condemn those who actually fired the shots and not seek further. But here the interests of the ministers were touched. Which of them might not be the next victim? In their faithful service toward their master, it was net possible for them always to avoid
 making enemies, and if the instigatoIs Of this crime were not punished they would become more aggressive, so that even the precious life of their master might be endangered.
 This view was less agreeable to con template, so the evidence against the two Kurdish pashas was reviewed; how Abdu Rlizak had threatened Red van, his uncle Shamil joining the feud, and exerting every effcrt to blacken Redvan's reputation, and prosecuting his men; how the murderers, instead of escaping towards the hills, retreat ed toward Scuta-ia, exchanging shots with police by the way, and only sur rendered when Shamn contenGei that the murderers were only to5acCo Smugglers, and refused to give them up to the ministry of police, and this in face of the evidence thag they had ceen kert in sight from the scene cf their crime until their surrender tc Shami.
 On these facts being reported the sultan issued an trade for the arrest of the cuiprits, and with cOmmendabIe pronptitude this was carried out. In the middle of the night armed men surrounded the suspected pa5has in their respective kaoaks. Officers en- tered in the sultan's name" and with n two hours they and all their house hold were lodged in the houses Of de- tention al the palace. By later or der Abdul Rizak, Sh2mii and large numter Of t4leir retin0e were shipped off in the steamship Mecca, which left port under sealed orders. fne four Kurds wno were concerned il the actual deed of violence are detained in prison.-London Standard.

GOOD OLD DAYS IN TURKEY
 ARE GONE
Sultan Has Substituted Sum- mary Exile for Beheading
 With An Axe.

In Turkeys good old days" the sul- tan's ministers enjoyed what accident insurance companies would consider hazardous occupations" A man might rise in week or two by favor of the sultan from the lowest ranks to that of vfzier, and in a week or less lose his head and his glory by one stroke of the eXecutioner's scimitar The present reign, however, has been marked by a great advance toward civilized methods. The sultan has substituted exile for summary decapi tation though there have been casea where objectionable notables have met with violent death under circun;. stances which recall Henry II and his hasty speech, 'Is there none who will rid me of this trouble3ome priest?"
 When it became generally knowr that Redyan Pasha had been killed, the first whispered question was, "Ig it by superior orders?" Ministers and notabIes were in a fever of anxiety to learn the truth, for their personal safety depended on the answer. If the death was by the sultan's orders, there was nothing more to be said, for their Hves are his to take at his pleasure. The fear was lest this should be the frst of series of assassinatioEs of ministers and favorites. If the au- thors went unpunished who could con- sider bis life safe
 Hence all the ministers hastened to tlsc place to learn by look or sign frsn the sultan's immediate entourage whether the death of Redvan Pasha vas to be considered murder in fact sx we'll as officially, or officially a uurfier, but in fact an execution with in the sultan's prerogative. The work ing of the Turkish mind is strictly ori- entaf and indirect, so of course, the paain question would not be asked by any. yet in little while all must have learned by some instinct, such as as xures bees of their queens continued welfare. that in this case the deed was murder. unauthorized and undesired. Then. and then only, could they ap- proach their master and bring forward their evidence and information which in the contrary case would never have tranSpire5.
 It is said that at first the sultan was adverse to taking action against the instigators of the crime. Evidence was not lacking that Abdul Rizak and his uncle, Sharail Pasha, governor of Scu- taria, had caused the late prefeet to he dcne to death, but both these pashas are KaEds. and very influen

SMALL CATTLE RECEIPTS
Very Few Shipments Received at Kansas City StockyardS
 Last Week.
SHIPMENTS OF LAMBS
 ON THE INCREASE

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 1S.-Very few cattle from remote States have been received this week. a sruail r,im- Der sf Panhandle stocKers at SG.G) to $4.35, and some heavy fed steers from Colorado at $5.U0 to $5.15, fed heifers in same shipment at $40 aud s4.f5, New Mexico grass bulls at S2.b5 and common Colorado stocker3 at g 90, being about the size 0f the outside offerings. The market was steady Monday, weak to 10 lower yesterday on a large run, but is stronger again today on a supply of 15UG head. The receipts have not been evenly dis t,ibuted this week, otherwise the mar ket would have held steady. Demand for all kinds of killing cattle is strong, although the supply continues 10 run considerably ahead of the correspond ing time in other years. Trade in stCckers and feeders, however, is dull, and prices considerably lower than a few weeks ago, ranging from g. co to S4.G0, which takes in all classes. Stock COWS and heifers are in strong demand at S2.35 to S3.25, a few choice heifers up to S3.65. Small farmers all over this territory are slarIing up small herds, or building up what they have Demand for thoroughbred hulls is at maximum, the desire Tot so much for the expensive fancy bIed animals as for the medium priced serviceable ones.
 An extra large percentage of nut ton receipts are lambs, about the only aged sheep coming being few shol n grass Texans, which sell at the re- Elunerative prices of S5.40 to S5.75. Aged sheep are much needed ny the packers. Wooded lambs sold today at s7.60 for the bulk, one drove of light G2-pound lambs going at s7.45, clipped lambs, s6,35 to s6.60; several punches of Texas goats this week at s3.S5 to s4.00, S4 to 95 pounds to the killers. Receipts are dwindling gradually, run in three days 1s,00o head; supply to- day $500. Demand from fhe packers is extra keen, as their large slaughter of cattle calls for sl liberal number mutton carcasses for economical ship ping. J. A RICKART,
