STORY oE PETER

This was the story of Peter Mon sas,.e in police court last evening. He had earned the sum of se at this kind kind of work, he said. and when he called at the home of his boss last night, that Zollner flew into fury and immediately brought charges of Mon tagEe's breaking the peace by creating a rough house at his home on Twelfth street and stealing pair of pinchers. Zollner called upon several officers and Judge Rice to cause the arrest of his employe and creditor, but after look ing into the case they passed him up.
 Montague evidently thought 1t would be good thing to try the same meth cd and he also looked up the police men and Judge Rice. It occurred 10 the judge that there might be a case between the two and he immediately arraigned them for hearing. The prep0nderance of evidence was SO greatly h Monfagues favor that Zoll- ner finally confessed to owing him se in wages, and produced $s-5O. wnich he offered as a settlement Montague held out for his other fifty cents. and the judge not only decided in his favor but assessed costs of s2-6o upon the defendant. zollner dug up both Douglas Dispatch.

JURYS WORK
 IS ABSURD

federal officials to bring indictments for perjury against a group of men, some of whom have done much to- ward making the southwest what it is today and even more than that, have made Globe the fourishing city 1t now is. As to the merits of the case. only what has been given out by either side is known.
 About a score of indictments for conspiracy to defraud the government of these lands have been found in New Mexico and the intentions of the federal officials is to secure indict- ments for perjury against the entry men in Globe alleging that they com mitted perjury in subscribing to af- hdavits that the entries were made for themselves and for no other par ty or corporation, claiming that the coal lands secured by them were to be subsequently, transferred to a cor poration, the Phelps-Dodge company. The parties accused claim that noth- ing criminal had been done. that they had filed on the land foS themselves and that no agreement or pact, writ ts nor verbal, had ever been made be- tween themselves and the corporation for a transfer of the lands
 Tt is generally known that threats and intimidations have been employed by agents of the government to secure evidence against the parties they wished to indict, as have promises of immunity from prosecution. Others than special agents of the govern ment have also been active in the ef- fort to secure evidence, for purely personal reasons, and it is the work of these that creates prejudice in the minds of fair-spirited men against the prosecution and even the prosecution, while using the information secured in this way cannot but feel contempt for the weakling who takes advantage of the immunity bath or the self-ap- pointed Pinkertons seeking the dis tress of others to gratify a personal groudge"

'COWARDLY
 ATTACK ON : RAILROADER
Freight Agent For Santa Fe at Phoenix Struck From Back By Another Employe With Whom He Had Trouble.
(Phoenix DeIuoerat.l

ACCtA1A AttAlOlAd
 J. D. McNeely, freight agent of the yardmaster For the same road here, were this morning assaulted by a man named Coke, and as a result McNeely is lying at the Sisters hos
 eye is in mourning.
 It is not known that McNeely and Coke had any serious trouble that might cause one man to assault an. other. Coke has been employed about the yards for some time, and it is pre- sumed that in the course of business ne had some words with the freight agent. which he treasured up.
 This morning, according to the sto- " of MT. Sharp, McNeely was talking to him, when Coke walked up behind him, but neither of the two men no tieed him at first. Then Sharp saw Coke suddenly strike at McNeley, and the freight agent wen down. rigat be fore his eyes, in crumpled heap.
 My God, man, what are you do ing?" burst from Sharp.
 Just as he said that Coke struck him a stunning blow in the eye. With that he walked away and, going to the timekeeper, asked for his time, saying that he would not work an- other day for the blankety-blank road.
 McNeley was immediately removed to the hospital, but he did not fully regain his senses after the blow was struck, and now lies in a stupor.
 A warrant was sworn out for Coke in Justice Johnstone's court, and he was soon behind the bars. Later he was released on bail
 Sharp does not know whether Coke struck McNeley with his fist or with some sort of club, but it is thougat that the blow was delivered with the fist alone. Coke is d powerful six footer, while McNeley is a slender man of much less strength.
 Coke's side of the story is some what different He says that Nc Neley cast improper reflections upon himself and young lady with whom he has been going. The girl has been in the habit oE going down to see him every day and riding about with him on the switch engine. When he heard that McNeley had been making uncomplimentary remarks his ire was naturally aroused and this morning he deliberately walked up and hit Ms Neley on the jaw. Sharp rushed in and he (Coke) thinking that the yard master intended to attack him, hit him in the eye.
 Coke says that he did not hit Me Neley behind the ear, but on the point of the jaw. This would produce the same condition of stupor affecting Me Neley.
 There are two warrants against Coke, both for battery; one Tor strik- ing McNeley and the other for beat ing Sharp. Soon after his arrest Coke gave bail and was released.

There have been some special agents of the government at Globe trying to secure indictments against a number of reputable citizens of that city on charges of perjury, alleged to have been committed in the purchase of soma enal lands from the govern ment in New Mexico. This effort on the part of the special agents is not meeting with any success, as on Fri day no indictments had been returned and the United States grand jury was called into court, no doubt at the in stigation of the special agents, and some instructions were given by the court which everyone knew had refer enee to the attempt to indict Globe citizens in connection with alleged coal land frauds.
 The grand jury at Globe is com posed of some of the most prominent of southern Arizona, such men as T. E. Solomon and Ph. Freud asthai e1f Selarannuilla R- R Adams and w. A. Pitt of Clifton, and James T. Owens of Stafford, besides 8 nun ber of the prominent and worthy cit izens of Globe With such a jury the wonder is why the court should deem it necessary to instruct them as to their duty If a grand jury should re- fuse to return indictments in any case because of lack of evidence it is not probable that a trial jury would find more credence in the submitted testimony.
 It has been the notorious general opinion that the recent indictments secured by coereing a grand jury at Santa Fe, New Mexico. against some of the officials of the Phelps-Dodge company, was a farce and judging from the following editorial in the Globe Silver Belt an attempt is being made to repeat the farce in Arizona:
 Tt is not pleasant duty that con fronts the federal grand jury now in session here. From the best obtain able knowledge they are asked by the

DISCARD HOSE REELS.

DOUGLAS, Dec. (SpeciaL) )-
 Chief Armstrong has aIrea ly thrown great deal of system into the fire department and the latest Hn- novation is an attachment to the com bination chemical and hook and lad der truck by which 700 feet of hose win be carried on that wagon and the smaller hose reels practically done away with, so far as the central fire station is concerned. Room hereto fore occupied on the hook and ladder wagon by the long ladder, which is practically yalueless in Douglas for fire fighting, has been given over to a hose receptacle made in Douglas af- ter Chief ArmstTong's pattern and which Is sufficient to hold all the hose that will be needed at an ordinary Ire. This will do away with the small hose reels that heretofore have been pro pelled by the volunteer hremen. It Is an ingenius arrangement and adds greatly to the effectiveness of the service.
 In keeping with the original ideas of the city council on the reorganiza- ton of the fire department, the hose reels will be placed at the Seventh and Fifteenth street public schools where volunteer companies will be organized with apparatus always at hand for rendering first aid" in the event of fire in any section of the city contiguous to those volunteer sta tions

cArTLg IN FINE sHAPE

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 9.-Hon. Co lin Cameron was in Phoenix on a hurried business trip. Mr Cameron who knows as much about the live stock business as any man living said that the cattle industry in Arizona was never before in as good shape it is at present. The cattle everywhere are looking well and the increase has been abundant In spite of the hard times, prices have remained good and there is no fear that they will not re main so. There has not been as great demand fer cattle lately ss formerly, owing to the stringency but it has not had the effect of lowering prices materially and cattle owners have felt a confidence that in very short time there will be a resumption of activity and the demand will be so great as to make up for the present state of inactivity.
 Mir. Cameron said that the panic had caused very little inconvenience in the southern part of the territory in any line of industry, especially in Pima county. In Tucson, for instance, real estate has been advancing all through the storm There have not been as many improvements as there would have been if money had been easy. but they will all be made in time so that at the worst there has been only little delay
 He said that while. in most places, the end of the trouble can be predict ed only indefinitely, at Tucson they know by the almanac when it will come to an end there The official date Is December IS. The banks of Tue son have been informed by their east ern connections that an abundance Of money will be shipped to them so that it win arrive on that date.

COL. H. c. HOOKER
 DIES IN LOS ANGELES

Word was received here of the sudden death in Los Angeles on last Thursday of Colonel H. c. Hooker, the well known cattleman and stock raiser. who had his ranch and ranges about twenty miles north of Wilicox.

 The colonel was prominent in Ari- zona affairs and news of his death will be learned with a pang of deep regret by all who knew him He leaves a wife, two, daughters and two sons.
