.DENN- N-ARIzOAA
 MAY REACH s7O
Report That Ore Was Struck In the American Is Yet
 Unconfinmed.
CBy Frank J. Graf.)

Today's market was certainly fierce, and the demand for stocks was good, especially in Denn-Arizona and Amer ican. The demand for Denn continues to get stronger, and from all indica- tions she Is well on the road to s70. This does not. however. mean that it will reach that figure. but l would not be at all surprised to see that price before the close of the coming week. Denn is getting into stronger hands every day, and those that are buying it are holding, and from all indications the small holders of Denn are all out and are quietly getting back into the market. The large holders know the property, and will keep it, There is every possible reason tn expect Denn to sell higher, for she has at the pres ent time better showing than any other development company that was reoEssnized in the camp. American has been a whifisind from early ,-=-n- ing, sales being made as high as $2O in very small blocks. This price brought out almost a thousand shares of local stock, but the market could not begin to take hold of it. The ad- vance in American has been attributed to two causes. First, the finding of ore, which has not been confirmed, and I do not think that it will be, all though I am of the opinion that they have struck good looking territory, and prospects are most encouraging. Sec ondly. it was rumored that the Supe- rior & Pittsburg would take up the American share for share, but this is not confirmed. This is the time of : consultations, and you are liable to
 hear reports of all kinds of consol-
 idations. have no doubt that the American will eventually belong
 to the Superior & Pittsburg, but not at the present writing. Globe is ID good demand at $11, with nothing con- | ing out under s11.25 to $11.50. Su.
 perior & Pittsburg showed weakness. Cananea Central also; while Greene
 Cananea was in strong demand at S23
 to $23.50. I strongly advise the buying
 of this stock for good turn.

MINER PLUNGES DOWN SHAFT
 ID DEATH
Fatal Accident Occurs Sunday at McCabe Mine-SkuIl Was Crushed and Death Was h. Stantaneous,

PRESCOTT, Jan. lT.-with a cry of horror on his lips, l.. Scashigliny, a Swiss miner, employed at the McCabe mine, fell down the compartment shaft of that property Sunday at noon, and was instantly killed, his skull be- ing crushed, his neck, arm and leg broken in the fall.
 The unfortunate miner had been em- ployed at the mine but few days, coming to McCabe from Bedding, Cal, about five days ago. Sunday, after partaking of his lunch, he entered the bucket to be lowered [ othe 700-foot station. A companion was riding on top of the bucket.
 Arriving at the station. Scashigli- ny's companion stepped from the top of the bucket to the platform. Scash- igliny stepped from the bucket to the timbers of the shaft on the opposite side, and then. in apparent alteration of mind, stepped off into the other shaft. falling to the bottom, distance of 150 feet.
 The station, at the 700-foot level, is Illuminated by electricity, and the of. ficials of the mine are at a loss to ac- count for the unfortunate accident, ex- cept that Scashigliny absent-mindedly stepped off into the void. His re mains were quickly brought to the surface, but the man had been in stantly killed. A coroner's inquest was held, the verdict being that de ceased came to his death accidentally, through his own carelessness.
 The unfortunate victim of the fatal fall was about 35 years of age. He has a brother, an employe of the Trinity Lumber company, residing at Bedding, who has been notified of the accident. The remains of Scashigliny were tn- tered at McCabe yesterday.

THE AMERleAN-sAeINAw MINE

At the American-Saginaw mine they are pushing work in a downward di- rection. The shaft is down SGT feet and exploration is being further made by drifting. The country rock Is car boniferous limestone, the familiar for nation in the Bisbee district.
 It is in this kind of rock that cop per pockets are found. In time the American-Saginaw and Denn-Arizona will be connected for utility purposes President Collins says that no ore has been struck yet, and further says he knows no reason why the stock of his mine has advanced. He further said that if any ore body had been struck he would have known it, though he has not been to the mine two or three days on account of high water on the Naco Road.

These floods may prove . blessing in disguise. ss they will force ths building of a new railroad by the Shannon company.
 4 leading interest in Shanuon says that this summer the Shannon Copper company will havs its own railroad connecting Its mines and smelter, and 1t will forever thereafter be immune from floods, which have come w1th such frequent regularity during tho winters of the past few years. This matter will soon come before the Shannon board of directors. Leading interests in the company will probably build the road by subscribing to the bonds necessary to build 1t, and the shannon company will be given 50 per cent fthe stock of the railroad com. pany in return for a freight contract cent of the stock of the railroad com pany to secure much cheaper rates than are now obtainable over the Cor onado road. ts

MARKET LETTER.

Jan. F, 1S07.-With the re- port that American is to be merged with Superior & Pitts burg, the price of the former stock has gone upward about four points since yesterday. No confirmation of the report of the consolidation has been re- ceived, but We have excellent grounds for believing there is truth In it. If the report is correct, still heavier advance will be made. Considerable profit-taking caused a decline at the close, though there is good demand at SlS.75. Denn was another feature in the trad ing, and is in demand around S60 The stock is at present one of the best purchases on the board. Good strength is visible in Globe, and there is a lively demand. Calumet & Arr zona and Superior S Pittsburg are rather quiet at practically unchanged figures. Greene, Greene-Cananea and Central are practically at a standstili. Watch the non-producers close ly is our advice, and purchase the producers and proved prop critics on any sst-backs.

The Denn-Arizona mine Is slowly but surely progressing with it's devel- opment work. The 1100-foot level station will be complete on Sunday or Monday, and then drifting will com mence at this point for red metal ore. No further actual knowledge of ore exists now than has already been re. ported. But this outlook Is good and Supt. Pattison is banking strongly on what he can see.

THEATRICAL MANAGERS
INDICTED IN NEW YORK
Charged With Controlling Many
Houses and Companies.
LAW AND ERLANGER BAllED
Samuel Nixon, J. F. Zimmerman,
Marc Klaw, Abraham Erlanger,
Charles Frohman and Al Hay
man Named as Conspirators.

New York City.-A blanket bill of
Indictment, charging six members of
the so-called Theatrical Trust" with
conspiracy in restraint Of trade, was
returned by the Grand Jury. The
theatrical managers named in the in
iictment are Samuel Nixon and j. F.
Zimmerman, composing the firm Of
Nixon & Zimmerman, of Philadelphia
and New York; Marc Klaw and Abra-
ham Erlanger, Of the firm Of Klaw &
Granger, and Charles Frohman and
Al Hayman, all of this city.
Of these men only Messrs.' KlasT
and Erlanger were in town. Nixon
and Zimmerman are in Philadelphia,
and Charles Frohman and Al Hayman
are in Europe.
The indictment, filling seventy
typewriter pages, was handed up to
Judge Foster in Part I. of General
Sessions. Messrs. Klaw and Erlanger
had already been summoned by their
counsel, Alfred Lauterbach, and bail
In the amount Of $1,000 each was fur
nished by big Tim" Sullivan, who
gave as security the Dewey Theatre,
in East Fourteenth street, which he
said was worth 100000.
The indictment sets forth in detail
the acts of the so-called trust. The
charge is that the managers have
,onspired to monopolize the theatre
al business both as to ownership Of
:heatres and as to the production of
theatrical attractions. Under the
statutes, such a violation of the In
:.erstate law Is a misdemeanor.
The conspiracy, it Is charged, takes
the form of written agreements en-
tered into in 1896 and 1900 by the
Indicted managers. BY these agree
nents the several managers agree to
pool theatres and attractions and d.
vide the profits of the business. At
the time of the organization Of the
so-called trust, the indictment points
out, it controlled fifty theatres
throughout the country. At the pres
ent time it absolutely controls 500
of the 600 prominent 6nes.
The indictment also charges that
by means of the combination, the
managers have coerced actors, play
wrights and owners, and have com
PEELED owners Of many theatres to
give the syndicate exclusive control
Of the bookings of their theatres, in
payment for which the syndicate has
extorted from twenty-five to fifty per
cent. of the profits of the houses.
AS an instance Of the methods Of
the syndicate, the case Of Sarah Bern
hardt is cited. In her last tour of
this country, in 1905, permission was
refused her to play in syndicate
houses, for the reason that she was
appearing under the direction Of a
rival firm of managers. In her tour
Nine. Bernhard played only In in
dependent houses, and was frequent
ly forced to appear under tents. IS

nearly all the time were glued to the
witnesses in the chair. Only once
did he betray any sign of emotion,
and that was when the coroner's
physician was telling the story Of the
autopsy. Then Thaw, who had let
his head slip forward into his hands,
looked as though he might be BROOD
ing, but at a nudge from Mr.. Pea
body he sat up again and a stolid
look came into his face as if he were
prepared for the worst. Only once
or twice did he whisper to his coun-
sel-the proceedings in front of him
were going on at too rapid a rate to
allow any side remarks. When the
prisoner entered the courtroom there
had been a slight flush in his face,
which was. attempting to Danish the
prison pallor. The flush grew for a
time and then faded as the last wit
nesses came.
After a brief recess John B. Glea-
son, who opened for Thaw, spoke for
an hour and a quarter. He stated
that the defense would rely on every
plea it could uphold, not excluding a
belief in the need of self-defence, but
LIS mdlu oil Ill W SA3S'
Thaw comes from a family with in
sanity on both sides. He is of a high
strung temperament, easily losing
control Of himself. For years he
courted Evelyn Nesbit with the con-
sent of her mother. For a time she
refused him for some reason con-
nected with White, which she herself
will take the stand to explain. This
aroused in him an insane hatred OF
White, which his marriage, with the
approval Of all his relatives, did not
remove. When he came upon the ar
chitect in Madison Square Garden he
believed he was there by the direct
interposition of Providence, and as
the direct agent.of Providence he shot
and killed him. Stress and the in
fuences of heredity had turned his
brain, and as an insane man he can
not be held responsible for the acts
committed under the influence OF In
sanity.
I'VE will show YOU" said Mr..
Gleason, that the defendant on the
night of the shooting first saw White
%glowering at him and then became
convinced that it would be an act of
Providence for him to. kill the archi-
tect. Acting on that prompting, he
walked over as coolly as he might go
to speak to a friend and shot that
man. He did not regard the act as
wrong. He considered that it was
Gods providence and was not wrong.
We say that upon the evidence 1t Will
be impossible for you to say that at
the time Thaw shot White he was
SAN beyond a reasonable doubt"
One sentence Of Gleason's threw
wide open the closet, and the horror
Of it all burst upon the view. 1t was
as If the founder of the Thaw family
he who reared that monument OF
forty millions of dollars-had stalked
upon the scene like the spectre King
of Denmark, and cried:
'The sins of the father are visited
upon the children. Blame not my
son-blame me-"
Mr.. Gleason said: 1--WE will show
you, gentlemen of the jury. that in

"Thaw said to her: It's all right,
dearie. I have probably saved your
life"
A big drawing showing the Madi-
son Square Roof Garden was then
shown to the jury and Mr.. Garvan
explained to the jurors the relative
positions of Thaw and White at the
time Of the shooting.
Meyer Cohen. a singer, and Henry
F. Blease, in the music publishing
business, both of whom witnessed the
shooting, were examined. The first
move by the defence toward cross
examination vas made when Dolphin
M. Delmas, the noted California law
yer, put q few questions to Cohen.
Paul Brudi, the fireman who seized
and disarmed Thaw, was the fifth
witness. His story corroborated
those told by the preceding wit
nesses. All the evidence submitted
by the prosecution was straightfor-
ward; merc,,y simple account Of how
Thaw went to the Madison Square
Garden roof and shot down the man
he hated.
Patrolman Patrick L. Debs, who

did you have any conversation
with Thaw?" asked Mr.. Garvan.
Il did," he replied. Il asked the
prisoner If he had shot Stanford
White, and he said, I did I then
asked him why he shot him, and he
said, Because he ruined my wife,
or life"
Timothy Leblanc, coroner's physi-
clan, who performed the autopsy on
Stanford Whites bodySdescribed the
wounds made by the thkee bullets.
DR.. Sylvester Pechner, who was
with a party on the Madison Square
Roof Garden the night of the tragedy,
followed. DIR. Pechner examined
White soon after he fell, and pro-
nounced him dead. The architects
death must have been instantaneous,
he declared. He then saw the de-

| out of firing condition, and. hold 1t

human lie. After proving that fact
to you. we will ask you to find the
defendant guilty Of the crime of muir
der in the first degree
Neither Harry Thaw O any of his
people showed by any outward sign
that they heard Jerome's assistant.
After Mr.. Garvan took his seat,
District Attorney Jerome sprang a
surprise by asking the court to ex-
clude all witnesses in the ase except
experts. By doing this MI. Jerome
disclosed the fact that Mrs. William
Thaw, the prisoners mother, and
Mrs. Harry Thaw, his wife, were both
to take the stand for the defence.
On advice OF Thaw's counsel they left
the courtroom with all the other wit
nesses. May Mckenzie, Evelyn Mes
bits chorus girl chum, was included
in the list and accompanied Mrs.
Harry Thaw into the court clerks
office. Mrs. William Thaw is expect
ed to testify to the prisoners eccen-
tricities as a youth. The prisoner
seemed greatly downcast at the eX-
clusion Of his mother and wife. His
only relatives left in the room were
mis- brothers and his sister, Mrs. Car
negie.
The first witness was then called.
He was Lawrence White, a Harvard
student, nineteen years old, and a
son of the dead architect. White was
on the stand but a few minutes. He
told of accompanying his father to
the Cafe Martin for dinner, and said
that when he left him to go with his
companion, a boy named King, to
the New York Roof Garden, it was
the last time he saw his father alive.
Thaw's attorneys did not desire to
cross-examine the witness, and he
was allowed to leave the stand.
Warren Paxton, the engineer of
the Madison Square Garden, followed
young White on the stand. He had
known Stanford White for sixteen
years. On the night Of the shooting
he was on the roof garden. Paxton
sent for a policeman after the MUIR
der. There was some delay in get
ting the policemen and Thaw re-
marked:
Cant I go down the elevator
now? I do not want to disturb these
people here" Thaw, Paxton said,
was referring to the audience.
Paxton continued:
II saw Mrs. Thaw and two men
near the elevator. Thaw here re-
marked: 4 shot him because he
ruined my wife
''Then Mrs. Thaw threw her arms
around the defendants neck and
said: Yes, but look at the fix you
are in now
