Cananea Still
 Under Dark Cloud

Pete Hook and wife ot Cananea were
 Tn the city yesterday. Mir. H look stated
 to PRosPECTOR representative that
 there is still feeling of unrest at that
 place and considerable undercurrent
 talk among the Mexicans. During
 the past week the force of Mexican
 soldiers has been increased by the ar
 rival of several companies Of infantry from Hermosillo. The Mexican au- thorities are at work investigating the smuggling of arms into cananea. which has been going on quite active ly since the recent trouble, and i. is estimated that about 800 rifles havs been secured there during the past few weeks. It was expected that trouble would occur there on the Fourth but the ofiic als were looking fer it, and had the discontented element made any move in that direction the, would have met with warm reception from the Mexican troops and Kosterl skyIs cordadoes. The agitators are being weeded out by tn. company and made to leave the camp. MT. Hook is of he opinion that it vii. be some time before Cam anes vi resume its former peaceful attitude, as the feeling among the Mexicans against the "Gringos" l. very bitter and they are continually attacking the Americans, several be 2 | 'hot during the past week, all o: it be- pg done in the night time,

Joint Statehood
 Bureau at Work

If any one has any doubt that the national republican joint statehood bureau is at work, he should read the Washington dispatches in the Tucson 5 a., of winch the following is sam- pie:
 Washington, July 5.-It was given out from official sources today that should there be a failure Of Arizona and New Mexico to unite as one state, that on the reassembling of congress they will be reunited ss one territory as they were before 1863, wlic, will avoid two territorial gosernn ents and create a sentiment in both territories which will gladly accept joinJure The policy of the administration to have as few territorial government as pos sible."

Artesian We'll
 Down 470 Feet

Walter Coger, of the St David Artesian Company, was m the city to- day. Mir. Coger stated to PRosPEcTok representative that the big sell being sunk at St. David is now down UO a dep h 470 feet. The drill has been Tor the past few days in a hard cement formation and has not been making uore than from ten to fourteen feet day. The formation lies directly un. Ter the aater bearing strata that Ina been struck in all of the wells heretu- ore sunk in the valley and which Ina, never been gone through before. Th' water which has been passed by the drill would furnish flow ut S00 gal Ions per minute, but the men at tn, drill are not satisfied with this and hope to materially increase this flow age when the cement formation has been gone through.
 The su cess of this we'll is being watched by number of citizens oi ! Cochlse county, and the striking of a large flow of water will make the San Pedro Valley one of the greatest and best garden spots of the West. Tine Southern Pacific is also watching the progress of the we'll and expects tt sink one or more wells in the vicinity of Benson.

United States Against
 E. P. & s. W. Co.

Suit was filed on the United States side of the coart today as a civil ac- tion wherein the United States gov ernment is the plaintiff and the Fl Paso X Southwestern kai'road Co. is defendant. The complaint alleges that the company has in the rsst been violating what is known in the Federal Statute as the Safety Appli- ance Act, which was enacted by con gress March ,, 1903, and went into effect the first of this year. The pa pers were sent to Tombstone from Phoenix by United States Attorney Alexander to be filed, and a copy oi the complaint with a summons to be placed in the hands of the |. :. mar shsl for service on the company. The papers state that they are flied at the request of the interstate commerce commission and upon evidence fur nished by an inspector who had made a complete investigation and subse
 uent reports on the matter. The complaint states four different causes of action and asks for judgment Tn ca h instance for the sum ci Slno, which is the amount of the penalty for each violation of the act. The complaint states that at the different times mentioned the defendant hauled or caused 10 be hauled over its lines in the territory, three cars on which the coupling had been broken or dam aged so that the trainmen were com- pell-d to go in between the cars to m ke the couplings. The other in- stance states that engine No. 302 was us d in the yards at Doug as for switching purposes wAen both the front of the engine and the end Of the tender failed to have the necessary automatic coupler thereon, so that the switchmen were compelled to ga in between the engine and the cars to couple them together.
 Besides filing suit in this county, the government has made the rail : road company defendant in an acton brought in New Mexico. where the company has several lines, and also in the state of Texas.
