ACHIEVEMENTS BOLD WORK
Six Miles From Advance
 In Yosemite Valley
Suspicious and Astounding 4 Conduct of the Owners of the Stage Line.

Fresno, July S.-A special dispatch to the RepublicaR from Berenda, tonight announced that the lone highwayman who held up five stages near Advance Saturday afternoon. had been cap tured. The name of the bandit or particulars of his capture could not be ascertained. The arrest was made at Wawona. Powerful influences are be- ing exercised at Wawona to prevent any details of the hold-ups from get ting to the outside world. The Wash burns. who own the hotel. stage line and toll road. used every effort Satur- day night to keep tn news of this most sensational piece of road agency from reaching beyond the confines of Wa wona. Several of the passengers had written out accounts of the hold-ups, but the Washburns went to them, beg ging and threatening, to keep them from being filed. The first authentic information was received in Fresno at 10:30 tonight, when w. H. Tibbets of Riverside arrived and who, with his wife and Miss Amy MicheIbacher. had come out of the valley. He stated that he had prepared for the press a long account of a sensational piece of ban ditry, but the Washburns had pleaded with him until he destroyed it.
 Tibbetts and party had arrived at WawOna last evening at 8 o'clock, on their way out, just as the affrighted passengers who had passed through the experience with the gentleman of the road had reached Wawona. They were still greatly excited and the nerves of many of the women passen- gers were shaken to the point of pros tratiOn. The robbery occurred six miles from the stopping place at An vance, on the Yosemite side At that place the road winds around the side of a hill and comes to a sudden point. Right at this point the rObber stepped out and ordered 6he driver of the first stage to stop. The driver was w. A. Palmer. a veteran of the road. The bandit had the drop on the driver and the latter did not hesitate in comply ing. The rule of the Washburns on their stage line is that drivers cannot go armed. and they are forbidden from making any show of resistance to the demands of highwaymen.

FIREMAN PILLSBURY
 KILLED IN WRECK
ExaEGerated Reports of Accident On
 the Santa Fe.

Flagstaff, Ariz., July S.-At o'clock this afternoon, four miles west of here, passenger train No. 1, the eastbound Santa Fe limited, was wrecked. Fire man Ed Pillsbury was caught under the engine and scalded to death Engi- neer GOldswOrthy had both legs scala ded and was injured about the chest No passengers were injured.
 The accident was caused by one Of the front trucks of the engine leaving the track, and that the accident was not more disastrous is due to the pres ence of mind of Engineer Goldsworthy who applied the brakes and stuck to his post until the engine started to turn over, when he jumped. The en- zine turned over on it's left side and d composite car and dining car slipped over the crest of the embankment, the three Pullmans remaining on the track.

is that they are federal office holders and could probably not be elected to their present offices if the people could express a choice. It is reported here that Judge Campbell owns an interest in the paper.
 This association again suggests that steps be taken to see that federal off cers in the territory be either replaced by men favorable to the policy of the administration or that they receive some intimation as to the nature of that policy. This matter is exceeding ly important and particularly at this time when we need newspapers. l would say in conclusion that the pros poets for the passage of the referen- dunn by a popular vote at the NOvem- Der election were never SO bright ls at present. We need help, however, and particularly newspaper influence.
 Very sincerely yours.
 (Signed) MARK A RODGERS,
 Secretary. Here is the letter of the president in reply in it's entirety. denying flat footed the request of the league:
 FROM AN OLD FRIEND.
 My Dear Sir-I have received your letter of the 23d protesting against certain federal officials taking part against statehood in the pending cam paign in Arizona.
 I do not care to coerce the action of any man in Arizona. whether he does or does not hold my commission. The federal officials are to have the same right as any other citizen to eX- press their sentiments and vote as they choose, though of course they are not to use their off ces so as in any way to control or influence the popu- lar vote. Subject, however, to this last qualification, their right to speech and action is untrammeled-just as much so as with any private citizen.
 It is proper, however, that having said this, I should add my earnest hope that the people of the territory of Ari- zona in their wisdom will decide to en - ter the Union as a part of the great state of Arizona No man can foretel what will happen in future! but it is my belief that if the people of Arizona let this chance go by they will have tC wait very many years before the

All the facts in relation to the letter of the president to Dr. Rodgers of Tue son concerning joint statehood have now been brought out. The Republi- can showed yesterday morning that the essential part of the letter of the president had been omitted. It was able only to supply the substance of the omitted part. but it is now in pos session of the entire letter as well as the letter from Dr. Rodgers which called out the presidential communi- cation.
 About the scurviest trick ever played upon the president has been performed by the enthusiastic jointists of Tue son in their extreme anxiety to fool the voters of this territory when they per mitted it to appear that he was in truding himself into the statehood fight.
 The letters come in full from the Santa Fe New Mexican, which though now in favor of joint statehood, be- lieves that the publication by the Ari- ZOna Star and certain New Mexican papers. of the extract from the presi- dents letter and the omission entirely of the Rodgers letter is an exhibition Of unfairness.
 The following is the epistolary com plaint of Dr. Rodgers, who desired on behalf of the joint statehood league the disciplining of certain federal officials which the league evidently believed the president would attend to with pleasure:
 TO AN OLD FRIEND.
 June 23, 1906. Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States, Washington, D. C.:
 Dear Sir-I am instructed by the executive committee of the Arizona Statehood association to address this communication to you with a clipping from the Tucson Post of even date which shows the attitude of that organ on the statehood question. The editor of the paper is Allen B. Jaynes, clerk of the United States court in this dis trict and an appointee of Judge J. H Campbell, recently appointed by the president and who is also a strenuous opponent of the jointure idea. The only reason these men oppose jointurC

Vigo, Spain, July s.-Reports sent abroad relating to insubordination on board the Russian cruiser Terek, anch- ored here, have been much exaggerat- ed. The Russian consul informed the Associated Press today that there is no truth in the statement that a mu- iny occurred on board. This rumor originated, owing to the fact that one volunteer seaman, out of thirty shipped at Vladivostok, refused to perform his duties and was consequently dis charged here.
