The Best Meeting Political OF Other Ever Held at Kingman.

Kingman. Ariz., Oct. 16.-(Special)- The anti-joint statehood meeting held here tonight was the largest. most en- thusiastic and successful meeting yet held by the committee. It was also the largest and best political meeting of any kind ever held in this county.
 The meeting was held in the new Elks hall. Foster $. Dennis was the chairman, supported by a large num- Der of prominent citizens of this city upon the stand. The speakers were Attorney General F. s. Clark. Leroy Anderson and T. c. Norris. The argu- ments Of Ainsworth and Fitch as de- liyered here were squarely and fairly answered and no one could doubt the satisfaction with which the audience received the answers.
 The sentiment here is overwhelm- ingly against jointure. There will not be over twenty votes in the county for jointure. Never have the citizens of this county heard better, cleaner or more eloquent addresses than those delivered tonight. There was no abuse of opponents, no calling Of names. or islander of any one. There were clean earnest pleas for home and country and Arizona, single and alone.

Hindman had assured him that he had not ac- cepted the nomination and therefore the Mutual Life has not discharged Col. Hindman for that reason.

 LAST PLUNGE
The Trench LutiR Lost Off
 IuniS
Search for the Missing Yes seI is so Far Without Result.

Biserta, Tunis. Oct. 16.-The French submarine Lutin left this port this forenoon for a plunging experiment. Signals received at 10 o'clock reported her disappearance
 Two torpedo boats and three tugs have gone out in search of the subma- rine. No further news of her has been received.
 It now appears certain according to news received at a late hour tonight det here last year.
 The crew of the Lutin numbered fourteen men under command of Lieu tenant PhOephen. Admiral Bellue. commander of the Tunis naval division, who went on board a tug, returned at a late hour tonight and said that owing to the heavy seas and the Obscurity it was impossible to continue salvage op- erations until dawn. The tugs and tor pedO boats, however. will remain i through the night near the place where
 the Lutin made her final plunge. One
 of these boats reports that its drag encountered resistence as though a yes sel were lying at the bottom.
 The consul here telegraphed the Brit ish admiralty at Gilita for salvage and assistance. This request was granted and powerful salvage apparatus will be sent at once to the scene of the catas- | trophe.
 l Paris. Oct. 16.-M. Thompson. min l ister of marine. has received an off, ciaI dispatch from the naval com mandant at Biserta confirming the sinking of the submarine Lutin.

The Liberals Are Inclined to Jealousy Moderate Officials Whom the Intervention Found Left Occupying Minor Posts.

Havana Oct. 16.-Reports received here from all over the. island show that agricultural operations are being re- stunned. There are no further signs or discontent with the exception of com plaints that some of the moderate off cials ought to be removed. The lib- erals are talking about the displace- ment of certain of the more extensively partisan officials from high govern mental positions, but no move in that direction has been made by the leaders. The strongly moderate partisans con tinue to be dissatisfied and assert that the peace commissioners should con suit more with republicans of con servative business interests. A great majority of these men, however, be- lieved that in any event American in- terventiOn was bound to come.

4 NEW INTEREST
 IN HE THAW CASE
Jerome That Others May Be lndict- ed in Connection White Murder.


 New York, Oct. 16.-There was a re- vival of interest today in the case of Harry K. Thaw, charged with the mur- der of Stanford White, when in court. District Attorney Jerome intimated that there might be other indictments in the case. The statement by the dis trict attorney was made in the course of an argument before Recorder Golf against the writ of prohibition re- straining the district attorney from further preliminary action in the grand jury proceedings in the murder case.
 Following the hearing Clifford W. Hartridge. Thaw's counsel. called upon the prisoner at the TOmbs prison. Af- ter his visit the lawyer explained that Thaw had read the evening papers and feared from what he read of the pro- ceedings before Recorder Golf that an attempt might be made to indict his wife or other members of the family. Mir. Hartridge said that he had merely called to set Thaw's mind at rest as there was no danger that any other member of his family or any one con nected with the family would be in- dicted.
 The recorder at the request of MT. Jerome adjourned the proceedings. that the district attorney might obtain a formal order for having the argument transferred to Justice McLean's court, where it was first heard.

with regard to yellow fever, the situa- tion is not regarded as especially dan gerous. The number of cases under treatment in Havana this afternoon is ten. making a total for October of four teen. There is one case at Cruces, two at Cienfuegos. Dr. Carlos Finlay, chief of the department of health and sani- tatiOn. tonight said that while the fever in Havana was epidemic the situation was not one to cause serious alarm and that there was every expectation that the spread of the disease could be prevented. The wide dispersion of cses is a most serious feature. There have been no American cases. Major Kean of the medical department said this afternoon that the work of exter- minating the mosquitos was progress ing vigorously and effectively, and that general sanitary work was being un- dertaken on a large scale.

A ROASTING
 ENDORSEMENT
Of New York Democratic
 State Ticket
The Contradictory Attitude Assumed Toward It by Senator M'Carren.

New York. Oct 16.-A special meet ing of the democratic general commit tee of Kings county called for the pur- opse of ratifying nominations made on the state and local ticket was held to- night. Senator Patrick H. McCarren, chairman of the executive committee offered a resolution endorsing the plat form and candidates nominated at the Buffalo convention.
 Before the resolutions were voted upon Senator McCarren denounced the head of the ticket. who. he said. had bolted the ticket in the county. Never within his recollection had such a situ- ation confronted the party as was pre- scented in this campaign. The spectacle of leader refusing to recognize the ticket which he headed was certainly a novel one. It was an insult to every democrat in the committee and they would be less than human if they did not feel a spirit of. resentment. He called upon all voters to resent what he termed the "unjustifiable vilification of respectable candidates"
 Senator McCarren continued at some ! length in a bitter denunciatiOn of MT. Hearst, who, he declared, was trying to disrupt the democratic party in the states of California and Illinois. The Independence League was also roundly condemned by the senator. who styled it a body organized for the purpose of blackmailing the democratic party
 When he had concluded Senator Me Carren moved the adoption of the reso- lutiOns. which were unanimously adopted. 4 motion was also made ! that the committee express their ap- proval of the attitude of Senator Me ! CarreR. It. was done by a rising vote.

NEW RUNNING RECORD
 WTH A HEAVY LOAD
ROssben Made Seven FurIongs in 1;22, Carrying a Weight of 126 Pounds. He Win Try for the Mile Record.


 New York, Oct. 16.-D. c. Johnson's ROseben, carrying 126 pounds. created a new worlds record for seven fur longs when he won the fifth race at Belmont park today. He stepped the distance in the fastest time ever made on an American race course, 1:22. When he finished and the phenomenal time was hung out by the official timer the big crowd arose and gave the great sprinter a rousins cheer which con- tinued for several minutes in spite of the fact that he was quoted at 1 to 80 in the betting and they were unable to bet on him.
 The best previous time was 1:24 4-5, held by Halifax, around the turns. and the straight away was held by Della B., 1:23 1-2, made in 1890 at Monmouth. ROseben probably will be sent Friday against the mile record, which is held by Salvador of 1:35 1-2, over the straightaway course at Monmouth in 1890

ARGUMENTS PROGRESS
 IN STANDARD OIL CASE
The Defendants Rely on Contention that the Standard Oil of New York is Not Standard Oil of Ohio.

Findlay, Ohio. Oct 16.-That the case on trial for conspiracy against trade, will be in the hands of the jury tomor- row is confidently predicted tonight by the attorneys for both sides. The evil dence is all in and the arguments pro- gressed for four hours today. The jury has yet to hear Attorney Kline for the defense and the closing argument for the state by Attorney Ellis.
 Prosecutor David began his argument at 10 o'clock this morning, after two witnesses had testified for the state and the defense had closed its case with the submission as evidence of a single document. the decree of the superior court of the state declaring the defendant company mot guilty in the contempt proceedings of 1900.
 MT. Phelps followed Mir. David for the prosecution and MT. Kline occupied the balance of the day until after 3 o'clock in making the argument for the defense. The prosecution told the jury that there never had been an actual cessation of the Standard Oil trust of 1882. as shown by the evidence. al though the form of the organization had been changed. The defense made it's main point that while the evidence showed all the sO-called subsidiary companies to be owned by the Standard Oil company of New York, not one syl, lable of evidence had been adduced to show that the defendant company was so owned.

Chicago. Oct. 16.-W s.

He tes- tified that he had known of cases where the grain had been stored in elevators that belonged to the owners of the warehouses.
 In such cases he stated. however. it was the custom to transfer the title of the grain before moving it. thus in a way complying with the letter of the law. After the grain was removed from the elevators. he asserted, it would be retransferred to the owner.
 Several other grain men testified that such practice was in vogue and stated that they did not consider it in vio- lation of the law.
