SMALLPOX GETS
 SECOND VICTIM PesthOuse Patient, Res dent of Lowell Died
 Yesterday
S4tes,~Ns.ssrs.

His whole body covered with solid xcab with continent smallpox, J. T. Dial, aged 26 years, died yesterday afternoon at the pesthouse at o'clock. He was taken to the pesthouse last Thursday a week ago, having been arrested at Lowell by the officers after he had broken out badly over zAe face and body. He was placed ander the care of nurse and the best attention shown him. However, as he had not been vaccinated the case ,gas one of the most severe forms.
 Dial came 10 Lowell six months ago. He was employed by the Mutual Life Insurance Company, but as busi- ness became dull he quit the insur- znce business and went to gambling n a saloon in Lowell. His relatives Eve in Woodstock, Ga. A letter was Eritten to his parents over week ago, but so far the officers have had no reply.
 Dial was buried last night at 10 s'cIock in the Evergreen cemetery by she county. He was taken from the Eesthouse at a quiet hour, well wrapped in sheets to prevent the mi srobes from spreading, and, without services of any kind. buried.
 According to the nurse who attend ed him. Dial claims to have caught xne smallpox up Tombstone Canyon. He claimed to have been exposed to sEe house where the colored woman sfed several weeks ago. When he first begun to break out, he had no suspicion as to his illness and mingled freely with the people in Lowell, and sefore his arrest had been in the res saurants and saloor5 in Bisbee.
 All the burials and care of patients sto die of smallpox are under the ao- AoIute control and direction of man skilled in this work Every precau- sion Is being exercised to avoid the spread of the disease. When dead wagon is sent out 70 haul corpse, II is disinfected with formaldehyde. The clothes cf the undertaken are xlso disinfected.
 After the body is buried before the wagon leaves the graveyard 1t is again dfsfnfected; the undertaken disinfects Himself, and as all the clothing used on the corpse is buried, it prevents any possible chance of the disease spreadine. When the dead wason is run into the barn it is filled with for naIdehye and left stand, without opening. for twenty-four hours.
 There are no other patients in the pesthouse at present. The nurse who xftended Dial was thoroughly disin- fected and made a complete change of clothing before permitted to leave the Rouse.

WANT KENNEDY
 FOR NOME CRIME Special Agent Comes tO Take Man Arrested For
 Robbery

After obtaining the description of Bob Kennedy, arrested at Cananea last week by Officer Jack White as an ters' saloon up Tombstone Canyon, in which Norton and Comesford were implicated, Clyde c. Coleman, spe- cial United States agent for the sec ond division of Alaska. has come to identify Kennedy as a man wanted in Alaska for a similar charge.
 Coleman arrived in Bisbee yester- day. He held a conference with Of feer White, got Kennedy's description and left on the evening train for Tombstone to take the necessary steps to extradite Kennedy from Can anea. where he is at present lodged in jail He will not be allowed to take the prisoner back to Alaska until after Norton and Comesford have had their trials, as he will be wanted as a witness against them.
 That Officer White arrested the right party at Cauanea was learned from a picture which Coleman had. This picture was taken after a disas- trous fire in Nome, Alaska, where he was lined up with other employees of the firm which burned and their pie lures taken. Officer White was able to recognize the picture as that of Kennedy whom he arrested in Cana nea.
 At Nome. Kennedy went by the name of Robert Mccullough. In other places he is known as Little Billie." Friday" Mccullough and George William.
 Kennedy, it is charged, in company with Walter Gilmore and Richard Roe, held up two Russians named Nerkury Nfkitin and Gregory Konchenko, Oc- tober 9, 1905, securing about s240. Gilmore was arrested and pleaded guilty. and is now serving time in the United States penitentiary. Ken nedy and Roe were still at large until Kennedy's arrest a few days ago.
 While Mir. Coleman did not state that he believed Charles Comesford to be the Richard Roe wanted in the Alaska hold-up, he did not deny it. Coleman stated that he was anxious to see Comesford, which was the principal object of his trip to Tomb stone. Comesford and Kennedy came to Bisbee together and were often seen together. It is believed that Comesford has a more serious charge facing him than the Winters saloon hold-up.
 It was thought for time he knew something about the murder of Gov. ernor Steunenberg of Idaho, as he claims to have been in Caldwell at the time it occurred It also is a speculation among the officers now that Comesford attempted suicide be- cause of his connection with the Alaska hold-up.
 Coleman will accompany Comes ford to Bisbee Thursday, when he will be arraigned before Justice Me Donald on charge of robbing the Winters saloon. If he proves to be the man wanted in Alaska, the charge may be dismissed so he can be re- turned to Alaska for trial.

BOLD ROBBERY
 OF BENSON STORE CaSianeda BrOS, Lose Goods That Have Va'uG of
 Alp ui $l,2CG

Frying open the back door with a small iron bar, they left behind, two robbers entered the store of Caste day night, taking away goods to the value of s1 POO, and leaving behind no ciew on which the officers can work.
 Visitors iu Bisbee yesterday from Benson state that 1t was one of the cleverest robberies in Benson in a number of years, the thieves making their entrance, gathering up whaC they wanted and departing at time when several people were passing on the street in front Of the store.
 One of the clerks, who entered the front door yesterday morning be- tween and o'clock, discovered that the place had been entered and robbed. Walking to the rear door, he found it open. On the door casing were marks, showing where small iron bar had been inserted, and the lock sprung apart.
 An alarm was immediately given, but the robbers had then had several hours in which to get away, secrete their stolen booty, and in all proba- bility join those who rushed to fhe store when it became generally known that robbery had been com mitted.
 An inventory taken shortly after the robbery was discovered showed that the robbers had taken away goods easily worth S1.200 or more. They took jewelry, neckties, shoes. clothing and other articles. Because If the nature of the goods stolen. it is believed that If they make any at- tempt to dispose of them in this sec ton they will be apprehended.
