CUT|CLE REMOVED FROM
 THE PHOENIX ATHLETICS
Prescott GrdyS Skinned Them in the Most
 Scientific Manner
Home Team Played Magnificent Game for Five In- nings, Then Lapsed into State of Coma from Which It Never Revived

a ball go through him at third and to add to accommodating sorrow. the catcher threw a bali 10 Delgado who let it slip through his fingers and a Prescott man scored. It should be mentioned that Gritalva played through the game under the name of Murphy as the latter had been listed and the substitution was made at the start without changing the score book.
 Umpire Wynkoop was on hand and 1t IS not merely formal but a state ment of fact, to say that he had charge of the game and it never got away from him. There was no quibbling about decisions and best of all he saw that the crowd, and especially the in terested players, kept away from the side lines. In the last half of the eighth a Prescott player insisted on encroaching after repeated warnings and the umpire finally told him he was no longer in the game. The Pres colt manager approved and the band played on. That is the way the grand stand likes to see baseball played That is the only kind Wynkoop um- pires.
 From the beginning the Phoenix team played an errorless game up to the fifth and for the first four innings they piled a run up each time. the en- emy not being able to break the crust. The fourth was a standoff. In the fifth Prescott broke the ice with three runs while Phoenix gained nothing In the sixth Phoenix got two and so did the visitors. In the seventh the visitors got two more placing them one ahead. Phoenix seemed to have lost her rab- bits foot and it was a Prescott game from that time to the finish.
 Before leaving last night Manager Taylor and several of the players call ed at The Republican office to say they had had a good time and were never treated better. They leave for home in the best of spirits and with the friendliest of feelings for the Phoenix people.

THREE POSSIBLE WAYS
For a Wreck Which Cost Eiqht
 Lives.

Hartford. Conn. Eight workmen were killed and thirty-five injured when a passenger train on the High land division of the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad crashed into the rear of work train that was backing into the city from New Brit - ain tonight at the Courtney street crossing. Two of the injured will probably die. There are three unoffi- cial statements as to the cause of the wreck. one that the passenger train from New Britain was on the wrong track. The second is that the work train had the right of way until seven o'clock and should have had a clear track. The third Is that the work train opened the switch and failed to close it.

In a good clean exhibition of Amer ican baseball. before a well filled and enthusiastic grand stand. the Prescott Grays yesterday afternoon grilled the grease out of the Phoenix Athletics by a score of 10 to 6, picked up what loose sporting money there was in the grand stand, took 50 per cent of the gate re- ceipts, gave the capital city the horse laugh. and left for home on the Dia- mond Jo this morning, everything to the good. There wasn't a single fly in the Prescott ointment and the only hair in the Phoenix butter was the one dragged in by the Grays when they put the finishing touches on and announced that it was their game There must have been 700 people in at- tendance. inside and outside, the grand stand had its full moneys worth and was as we'll satisfied as it could be on any occasion when the home team loses
 The visiting team is a strong aggre- gation and was in fine condition. The men worked together well and they are to begin with, big husky bunch of hard hitters and good catchers. To further insure victory Manager Taylor had imported a man from Globe. or somewhere else. who was formerly known as a star player in the territory. and who joined the team here yesterday morning and did the box work This was perfectly proper but Phoenix will always be sor- " that Rinehardt's train was not at least a day late Though a small man he is whirlwind pitcher and was a tower of strength to his team even though he made one or two bad plays and did not bat hard. His value lay in his ability to keep the other side guessing. He would follow couple of drop balls with a straight swift one. then another drop and next time it would be well up to the shoulder and in the most unexpected place. Some times he would pitch very slowly. then change to a lightning delivery. that made him a continuous surprise party. Elliott, the catcher seemed to be loose in his execution yesterday owing to an injured thumb. mak- ing several bad throws. some of them expensive. Wilson on third base played a beautiful game. Gillett on second base made three errors. which was altogether too many but as a whole the team made a fine showing.
 The work of the Phoenix team was generally speaking, good. and its de- feat was a most honorable one, but there were many unusual features. Every error was made by a crack player and each one was therefore a surprise. Even Graham dropped a ball on first base. Grijalva after catching one or two flies that were so hard he had no license to try finally dropped an easy one. Pope who play ed well most of the time dropped an easy fly and Stevenson. the pride of Granite Reef dropped two. Lewis let

 MURDER BOY
The Discovery of the ViC-
 tim s heddIesS Body
An Excitement in New Orleans Which Recalls the Mafia Episode.

New Orleans. June 23-Two miles in the interior of big swamp near this city the headIess body of Walter en and eight years old. who was kid mapped and held for ss.0Oo ransom two weeks ago. was found by the po- lice and vigilantes just before day break today.
 He was strangled, according to the confession of several Italians who are held by the police. The head was found a short distance from the body.
 Five Italians. two of them women. are under arrest. the latter charged as accomplices. Extra details of po- lice are maintaining order in the Ital- ian quarter. Seventy deputies are guarding the Orleans parish prison. the strongest in the state. where the three prisoners are held The other two are held at other prisons. Much anxiety is felt for their safety. Sel- dom since the Mafia lynchings sixteen years ago has New Orleans been so Stirred with threats of violence as to- day.
 The sweating process wrung con- fession from one of the Italians. who was carried into the woods at mid night last night and kept there an hour until he confessed. charging four Italians with the crime. He said that while a mass meeting was being held in New Orleans for the purpose ot prosecuting a search for the boy. the boy was crying in a vacant house at St Rose. twenty miles from here. near which place the body was found
 one man strangled the boy to stop his crying. The man who confessed led the searchers to the body The dead boys funeral was held this at- ternoon.

year, increased their drafts upon the United States for raw cotton. In the ten months for which detailed figures are available. the quantity sent to the United Kingdom has grown from 1.502. 100000 pounds last year to 1.s69. 900. .000; to Germany. from ESQ., 000,000 pounds to 1,103.000.000; to France, from 373,000, ,0O0 to 4S5, 900. 900; to Italy. from 216.000.000 to 263.000.- 900; to Spain. from 101. 100000 to IT, 100000; to Japan. from 6s.0oo.O0o to 11S.000,000: to Belgium. from 46.OOO,- coo to 71.OO0.000; and to Canada, from 64.0OO.0O0 to 7O.OOO,00O pounds.
 The raw cotton exported to Japan from the United States in the fiscal year will aggregate approximately l5O million pounds, valued at approximate ly E million dollars. which will how ever, be slightly below the figures of 1905, in which year the total quantity of cotton sent to Japan was 16s million pounds. valued at practically 11 million dollars
 The United Kingdom is by far the the total shipments to that country in ltlt year dboul io tilu, IciiiS ihciS to considerably exceed ? billion pounds with a value of considerably more than 200 million dollars. Germany ranks secopd, and the value of cotton ex- ported from the United States to that country during the year. will exceed 125 million dollars, while to France the total will probably not exceed SO mill lions, to Italy the total will probably be a little oyer 30 millions. to Spain approximately Is millions, and to Jap an, as already indicated approximate ly 15 millions.
 The value of cotton manufactures exported during the year about to end will fall considerably below that of the fiscal year 1906 and be somewhat less than that of 1905. This falling off oc- CUTS almost exclusively in the trade with China, to which the exports of cotton cloths from the United States for the ten months for which statistics are available have been but little over , million dollars. against 26 millions in the corresponding months of 1906 ard 21 millions in the corresponding months of 1905. This decline in the movements of cottons from the United States to China is largely due to the large accumulations of surplus mer- chandise of this character already in existence in China. this surplus being due to overimportations in the year immediately preceding the close of the "ar between Japan and Russia.

AMERICAN QUESTION
Nothing More Than a PO-
 litiCal Instrument
The Japanese Even IgnOr- ing the War Talk on this Side.

Tokio, June 24.-PubIic excitement over the American question has almost passed away but the agitation is still going on. It is mostly the work of politicians of the opposition who are employing the question as a weapon of attack upon the ministry. There is likely to be combined attack on the ministry over the question, the aim be- ing to strengthen the position of the attackers in the coming election of local assemblies and in the general election next year.
 Whatever attempts may be made in the way of agitation the actual possi- bilities with the United States are not even dreamed of. The war talk in some of the American press is totally ignored here.

Further the speaker argued that the
change was not necessary In the first
place, there are other ways. such as strict
government control, as in England, or
ownership by the government of 81 per
cent of the stock of railroads, as in Mex
leo; secondly, there is no popular demand
for government ownership, nor is it ad-
vocated by either party.
The rebuttal speeches were made in the
same order as the direct speeches Mr.
Day reiterated his argument. that the
present evils of the railroads We're due to
their being placed in private hands, rather
than in the hands of the democratic gov
eminent, where they belong. Mr. Hind
man. who made strong rebuttal speech,
pointed out that the postal service had
deficit last year of SITS, 900 900. and yet
men had offered to take over the system
and make money at the present rates. AS
to the furnishing of railway employees IN

it was impossible, because the civil service
rules had failed when applied to the skilled
laborers of the isthmian canal

speaker. The governmental ownership OF
railroads would. stated Mr.. Stacy, provide
a unified system of transportation. eiml-
mating dangerous competitions; would prove
a solution to the trust problem would de-
yelop Industries and would open the field
for private initiative in many branches.
Concluding Speeches.
In his arguments against government
ownership, Mr.. Couden took up the evils,
social and political. of the proposed system
1t would have a bad effect on the army of
railroad employees, he maintained, as 1t
would make them government hirelings. in
a category with the ambitioness hirelings
of European governments, and would lessen
the possibilities of individual supremacy.
Further, the proposed system would destroy
the balance of power between the three
branches of government. 1t would put this
stupendous enterprise of running all the
railroads in the country under the execu-
tive branch of the government and make it
one great department, as against the legis-
lative and judicial. The new system would
also turn over to the political parties an
other thing for them to squabble over, and
the port differentials would ever be a bone
of contention.
