THE EXAMINERS STORY.

'The Phoenix Republican of yester- day morning published an interview with Wesley Hill anent the recent meeting of the Yuma county republf- can central committee wherein there are several statements which when subjected to close scrutiny do not seem to be borne out by the facts
 Tt may be admitted that MT Hill has become prominent" but whether he has become prominently identified with republican politics in Yuma county is another question.
 However, it will be admitted that Messrs Dunlap and Hill have been active during the past few weeks; mo- body doubts that but we would like to have it stated just what percentage of the republicans of Yuma county they represented, and whether such republicans as they do represent are considered permanent residents of the county or merely here subject to pO- htical instructions from Phoenix
 That the Hill-Dunlap forces con trOlled the votes of eleven members either personally or by proxy is trifle wide of the truth. inasmuch as allowing them all they claimed they could muster but nine.
 That the places of two of the Hill Dunlap supporters were declared to be vacant is not in accordance with the facts, as only one vacancy was de- clared and that in the position of member at Empire Flat. where the former appOintee is was clearly shown was a democrat and it had been re- quested by the democratic organiza- tion that he be appointed inspector at that point at the coming election.
 MT. Hill ,held no proxies, con- quently the chairman could not have ruled regarding what did not exist.
 "The proxy from the newly appoint ed member at Empire Flat was not voted in the meeting

Mir Gibbs said that was SO. MT Glasgow wanted to know if 1t was merely coincidence that company coal was furnished by the concerns in which railroad officials were inter- ested or whether he had been in- structed by any higher official as to what companies were to furnish the fuel coal NIT Gibbs explained as he did yesterday that it was the custom for the railroad to assist new opera tions by purchasing fuel coal from them.

MISS WALTER ESCAPED.
Middletown Doctor Just Ready to
 Take a Second Wife.

New York, June 7.-Cards had been sent out inviting 254 friends to the wedding of Miss Edith Irwin Walter and Robert H. Downes, a Middletown, Conn, lawyer, which was to have taken place at the home Of Miss Walters father, Herbert E. Walter of 180 North Fulton avenue, Mount Vernon, last night. and Miss Walter and her mother were chat ting pleasantly over bundle of con- gratulatory letters that had just come to the bride when special de- livery letter was handed to MT Wal ter which informed him that his pros pective son-in-law already had wife from whom he had never been di- vorced-and child living in Phila- delphia
 The letter that stopped so abruptly the preparations for Miss Walters wedding was from John L. Thomp- son, who is vice-president of the Pennsylvania Fire Insurance Go and lives at 3432 Haverford avenue, Phil adelphia, in what is known there as the rich mems colony" The letter further told MT Walter that Downes' s real name was Henry N. Robison, but that he had it changed to Downes after he had been accused of being mixed up in forgery scandal in 1901.
 MT Walter called up the Middle town ofice of the Hubbard Motor Go. Of which Downes is secretary and treasurer, and Downes came to the spn one.' Ss'i''' E Do you. know John L. Thomson of Philadelphia? was Walters abrupt beginning of the telephoning, and the question was followed by a percepti- ble pause at the Middletown end of the line.
 "Yes, know Mir Thomson. Downes answered after the slight de- lay.
 Well, what have you to say to this letter received from him to-day" asked Mir Walter, who then read the letter. Quick. is that true?"
 No, it. isn't altogether true--that is, I did marry MT Thomson's daugh- ter" was the answer Mir Walter says he received; but we separated and my wife got divorce. I've tried to forget that part of my life because 1t was very unhappy union When I get down to Mount Vernon I'll ex- plain everything"

Scores the President.

Salt Lake City, Utah, June 7.-Tht Herald to-day publishes a letter from President Frank J. Hagenbarth of the National Livestock association The letter says in part:
 "The president has seen fit to ig nore urgent requests from official re presentatives of the Livestock indus try requiring him to withhold any radical message or reports to congress bearing on abuses of the packing in dustry for the reason that such mes sage is heralded over the world work an ilreparable loss both al home and abroad to the producers of livestock.
 Tt must be. presumed that the president of the United States Is too Big and broad man to feel chagriI because of the fact that Commission. CT Garfeld's report exonerated the packers from certain imputed de. linquencies. and it cannot be pre-. stunned that because he failed on these two former occasions, that the president. anxious to make record or without, chose the present method of doing SO"
 Mir Hagenbarth urges that all OK isting abuses could be corrected un- der the laws now in force and de- clares that the Neill-Reynolds report concerns principally particular occur ences and not general conditions. He says the stock growers have suffer cd for three years because of the beef trust agitation and concludes: "To sum up the entire subject in few words, the president. over the heads of the packers, has hit hard blow at the Livestock industry"
