UPPER LOWELL DEPT
 FIGHTS FIRE AND WINS
Entire Population of Suburb Gets into Action and Brings
 Blaze Under Control.

The efficiency or a volunteer fire de. partmeRt was again demonstrated yes terday vixen the Upper Lowell brigade got into action. on -a~house which was mass of flames; and within ten min utes had the fire under control. The blaze started in the Daglisher resi- dence in, Upper Lowell. just in a sec tion of the suburb where the houses are built closely together, and for a while it looked as if a whole row would be consumed by the flames. .s- .
 The family had just eaten dinner and risen from the table, when a can of coal oil was set on fire, and before the flames could be quenched, they had spread to different parts of the room. Several children who were play. ing around noticed the smoke, and alarmed the neighborhood. @ |, The flames spread rapidly, soon en- veloping the whole upper portion of the house. Almost the entire popula- tion of the town turned out and within a few minutes the, hose cart had been run to fire plug which was near the scene of the fire. -,. It took but few seconds to hitch on the plug, and the stream was played on the house. The firemen worked with good effect, and within ten minutes the blaze was ex- tinguished.
 The loss is estimated at about s400, with no insurance.

WILLIAMS
 UPHOLDS NICHOLS
Says the Secretary Of the Territory Had No Part In the F
 bustering Tactics Employed by Gentleman From,Coco nino to Prevent Consideration of Mine Tax Bill.

liams insisted that the printer should not print ,the mine tax bill until all other House bills in his possession should have been printed and deliver ed to the Secretary of the Territory. Tn this position he was sustained by the secretary's office
 On Thursday of last week the original bill was still in posses sion of the printer and would have been returned to the secretary's office the following morning together with the printed copies, when the chairman of the printing committee secured from the secretary's office, at Il o'clock at night, an order from the Secretary to deliver to MT. Williams the original bin. With this order if his pocket Mir. Williams went to the printer and demanded possession of the bill. and was not seen after that time until he was brought into the House by the sergeaht-at-arms Friday afternoon.
 In the face Of the statement made by wire by Mfr Williams it is pleasing to note that the Secretary of the Ter ritory was not cognizant of the small minded tactics to be employed in an attempt to delay artion upon the pill and 1t is presumed. likewise. that the strenuous filibustering tactics con cocted by the gentleman from Coco nino (Mr. Williars) aiid the gentle man from Plnal (Mr.s Guild) were like wise without the knowledge and con sent of the governors office. The young statesmen proved themselves unequal to the self-imposed task, of attempting to defeat the VIII of two thirds majority q the House.

The Review was in receipt of a tele- gram from Phoenix from the Chair man of the Printing Committee in the House, MT. L. s. Williams, as follows:
 Phoenix March I2. Editor Review. Bisbee, .Ariz.
 Please deny emphatically any knowledge on part of Secretary Nichols with Fridays attempt to dc lay action on mining tax bill. Mir. Nicholss or anyone else, outside of members of the House, were aware of tactics to be employed.
 (Silled) "L. s. WILLIAMS"
 The Review cheerfully publishes the telegram above. It was current report upon the. streets of Phoenix a week ago that the chairman of the printing committee was being assisted by the secretary's office in his attempt to prevent consideration of the mining tax bill on Friday and Saturday of last week. The bill was ordered printed by the House on first reading in order. that the members might study the provisions of the substitute that had been passed by the Council. but which had never been printed. Tn carrying out the desire of the House to have the bill printed on first reading. the same was referred to the committee on printing of which Mir. williams was chairman
 On the evening that the bill was referred to the printing com mittee the assistant secretary was in duced to come to the office of the pub lie printer and in the presence of Mir. Williams delivered to the printer the original blll, receiving his receipt therefor. On that occasion, Mir. Wil

ALL SHERIFFS OF ARIZONA AT
 CAPITAL
Are Maintaining Lobby to De- feat Measure Calling for Of flee of Sheriff on a Salary Basis.

7. PHOENIX, .Ariz,, March ls,-A ma jority of he-sheriffs of Arizona are in the city today and gathered n the lob Sles of the capitol building The en- forcers of the law are here for the purpose of lobbying for the passage If the bill increasing the term of office Of sheviffs from two to four yssrS D TheS are also, interested in the biil which places the office of sheriff on q salary instead of fee basis. The bill proposes, a salary of S45e0 foc sheTiffs lr first class counties, and it ;s under stood the sheriffs would ike to see this increased Go 5000 and ;ne term fixed at four years.
 | is argued that this wou;d be 10 tie benefit of the service, as It would bc an inducement for good men to .r after the office. As 1t is, there is niore in the office, but the term is SC short that a great many hesitate to go into a contest that is always eXpen- siye. The contest for sheriff costs candidates more than for any other of fee. ..

JUDGMENT DEBTOR
 TERRITORY OF ARIz. -. z
The Legislature to Be Asked to Authorize the Satisfaction
 of the Judgment.

Attorney Thomas D. Malioy of Yuma is in town on business with the legis- lature, says the Phoenix Republican. MT. Malloy is seeking to recover cer- tain fees earned by him as clerk of the district court for Yuma county in case in which Judgment for costs was rendered against the territory as plaintiff, the Bank of Yuma being de- fendant. It would seem that the ter ritory, which was never before in such a prosperous condition, ought at least be able to pay a bill of s20.S0 costs. There is now and has been ever since the judgment was rendered, more money than that in the territorial treasury but no way had been devised for getting out. Mir. MaIloy wants the legislature to work the combina- tion. ~a
 He had sent relief bill to members of the legislature, but it has not yet been introduced. He will try to have 1t done today, but if he should not sue ceed he will bring the matter to the attention of every legislature until the territory is admitted to statehood.
 On his arrival in town yesterday he found that this bill had been admend- ed. apparently by some committee. which he suspects was composed of Dennis Burke. The amendment fol- lows: Provided that on payment of said sum of $20.S0 in lawful coin of the Republic of Mexico, said Tom Mol Joy shall and is hereby authorized and commanded to expend said sum of s20.S0 for the establishment of home at Nogales, Arizona, for the support of all calves weaned, either with or without the consent of one or both parents, before the age of six months, age to be certified to by one or more relatives of said orphan calves, affi- davit to be signed in duplieate and at tested by Hon. Bo J. Whitesides."
 The amender of the bill doubtless had in mind the solicitude of Mr. Whiteside expressed in a recent house bill, for calves of tender age When Mir. Malloy was shown the amendment he said he would accept it if he had to do so. While it would not be the same as money. for $20.S0 Is s20.S0, after all his real object Is 10 see if the territory can not be made to satisfy judgment for costs.

E.P. SS. W. OFFICER
 CLEARED OF CHARGE
Special Officer Taylor Dismiss
 ed at Hearing of Evidence in
 Alleged Election Law Viola
 tion. ,,.y.... ...

The mtsdemeanor case against & H !. London and John L. Taylor. special of ncers for the E. P. & s. w. railroad , cnarged with violating the election laws. was dismissed in Justice Mitch els court at Fl Paso yesterday after noon after the evidence had been sub mitted. There was nothing iu the evidence to show the defendants had hired hack to take voters to the poll ing precints. and nothing to show that they tried to induce men to vote.
 s. J. Coleman, the man carried to the polls, was the only witness for the defense, and he stated that the defendants did not order the hack to go to precinct '. and that nothing was said to him about his vote. He said the defendants did not ask him to enter the hack and that he dlu not see them pay the driver or anyone else for the use of the hack.
 Several witnesses were introduced, among them being Charles Stover, the hack driver. He said he had been or dered to take his hack and stand in front of the Peoples drug store ou San Antonio street. He said that he was oFueTeQ IO precinct (, put not Dy either of the defendants.
 John NJ. Wyatt, the complainant in the action. said he was standing on the walk in front of precinct voting place on Boulevard when the hack drove up with London, Taylor and Coleman. He said he saw Coleman get out and go into one of the booths, evidently with the intention of voting. He said he declared the act, at that time, a violation of. the law, and spoke of it to ". W. ,Bridgers, one Of the supervisors of the polling place. MT. Wyatt said he did not know whether the men hired the hack. or who di- rected that it go to the precinct.
 T. E. Shelton was also introduced, but could throw no light on the point as to whether the defendants hired the hack or tried to induce Coleman to vote. Other witnesses were intro duced, but there was nothing in the evidence to show a violation of the law. and the justice dismissed the case.
 Taylor is well known in Bisbee and vicinity where his duties have brought him several times. He figured prom inently in the Naco coal stealing cases some months ago.

NEGRO BOY SHOT BY PHOENIX
 MEXICAN
Conflicting Versions of Shoot
 ing Leave Room for Doubt
 of Accidental Theoy-Thel Prisoner Discharged, I

Jesse Crump, colored orphan, living with his grandmother, Mrs. Annie Seovaii, on East Washington street, was, shot in the abdomen yesterday morning by Leonard Flores, a, Mexi- can lad, aged IS. inflicting painful injury. says the Phoenix Democrat of Monday.
 Crump is [ years of age, and the shot proved to be glancing flesh wound in the right side of the abda- men, which will not prove fatal unless blood pciFoning sets in. The boy was taken tc as home and Dr. Beauchamp was no al and dressed the wound.
 The Flores boy immediately after the shooting came up town, gave him. self up to Officer Moore. Later Flores was taken to Justice Johnstone's court where complaint was sworn to and the lad wss locked up. pending investi- gation and the result Of his victims injury. .-y
 There are two stories of the shoot ing. Jesse Crump, the injured boy, says that he was in the vicinity of the Linville school with his dog, engaged in robbing birds nests. He was up in a tree when Flores and another boy came along and Flores deliberately fir ed at him.
 Flores alleges that he, in company with Garcia, were coming up from the river when they met Crump. who was sitting on the bank of ditch with hIs faithful dog beside him. They tried to persuade Crump to go along with them, but he refused. The gun. he says, he was carrying in loose man. ner. with the barrel pointed downward. and in turning it was accidentally. dis charged, the bullet striking the boy in the abdomen. Flores claims that it was accidental. and that he is sorry it occurred. The Garcia boy verified Flores story. Flores was discharged this afternoon.

COST OF WARS,

There will be two notable peace con-
crosses In this country, and both may
be regarded as preliminary to the sec~
oud Hague congress-. which VIII con-
vene In June. one OF these gatherings
will open at Carnegie hall, New York;
April lb, and the other at Lake Mos
Monk, May II, Utah, as has been stat~
ed in these columns, will be represented
at Lake ATohonk, bus we have not yet
heard of any appointments to tho New
York gathering which will be internal
tional in character.
Such congresses are becoming an ec-
onornic necessity to the world. War OF
any Importance Is no longer confined
10 the nations Immediately involved
Its consequences are felt in financial
circles throughout the entire civilized
world. No nation has money enough
to finance big war, Even the United
States would have to borrow money In
order to defend her coasts against the
attacks OF a flrst-class power
II is said that there is In all the world
six billion dollars in gold. But a war
between any two great powers would
probably cost about one billion dollars a
year 1t is evident, therefore, that It
would materially interfere with the
trade and comnlerce of nations. There
can be no "Thirty-years' war any more.
And no nation can enrich itself by
conquest There is every reason why
wars should be made impossible, and
the financial interests OF the world seem
to realize this very keeglly at this time
