Dead Man IL Still Uniden.
RI titled.
SOME STRANGE SCENES
Enacted at the Hess and
Markert Morgue.
One Lady Sure the Corpse was That
Of Her Brother Changes Her
Mind Suddenly.

That there are many persons in
Marion, who are endowed with more
than ordinary bumps of curiosity-of
the kind that often makes their ac-
tions border on the humorous--is EVIL
|denced by the great number that has
visited the undertaking rooms of
Hess and Markert to view the re-
mains of the unknown man who
dropped dead in the Erie yards Thurs
Iday night.
Several hundred persons have
Viewed the remains during the past
two days. Almost every one has ex-
|amined the features of the dead man
carefully, feeling that they perhaps
were acquainted with him. His clothes
too, have been examined closely and
although many have seen him, none
has been able to identify him as yet
One man called at the morgue and
in a voice something similar to a
grand opera basso, demanded to see
the remains. 81 think can identify
the guy" said he. "That is my long
suit. Oncet in New York, identified
a guy that was dead. And / expect
that l have identified about a dozen
in my time"
| He was allowed to see the remains
and the clothing of the dead man
but he failed to recognize him.
Another man called, stating that
he once knew a man with light hair
and blue eyes who was subject to
epileptic Ats. He was quite sure that
the dead man was the man he once
knew. but when he looked him over
he decided that he was not.
A woman was the next one. She
was positive that the unknown man
was her brother, from the description
she had read in the papers. She was
taken into the morgue where she
examined the mans face carefully
Her every remark seemed to indicat,
that 1t was indeed her brother. Sh,
examined his clothing carefully, nod
ding her head all the while, and will
tears streaming down her cheeks.
About the time when the onlooker'
were certain that she had found he
brother who had not been heard o
for some time, she asked IL the dea,
man had any money or valuables OF
his person at the time he was found
When a negative reply was given, he

said, mo, 1t amt him."
Instead of leaving at once she pile,

 Cummings made q desperate fight while the train stood at the Tucson depot to make his escape, calling out that he was being kidnapped and beg ging all within reach of his voice to come to his rescue, and help him re- gain his liberty.
 To keep his charge under control it was necessary for Sheriff White to put him in straight jacket and keep him there until he reached the asylum, where Cumming was landed inside padded cell before he was re- leased from the straight jacket.
 Cummings was arrested at Para disc, and when taken to Tombstone it took six men to put him in a cell. He cursed ail who were near him, out that they were trying 10 kidnsp him and take him into

Arizona Lands to
 Be Opened Up

The management of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad is arran- ging to open up for settlement about 100000 acres of undeveloped land in Arizona and New Mexico. It is e.timat- ed that the property is worth to the railroad, at least ss,0OO,OO0.
 Plans for converting the propery to useful purposes are being worked out by the executive officials in New York and in St. Louis. B. F. Yoakum Chair man of the Executive Committee, has had an inspector travel through every township of the property.
 The land is situated ID the eastern part of New Mexico and the eastern and western parts of Northern Ariz. ons. The Santa Fe also owns consider able property of the same kind in Ariz- ona and New Mexico, and the action of the Frisco may induce this com pany to open up its land to settlers.

Mesa the Meca
 For CantaIoupes

The Phoenix Republican says the busiest place m the Salt river valley just now is :Mess, where the business of shipping cantaloupes is becoming more strenuous every day, Eleven cars were sent out yesterday and the number will likely be increased daily until the climax is reached. In the making up of the eleven car shipment A record was broken by H. s. Phelps. Mir. Phelps has one and half acres in melons and in one day he gath cred from it no crates. Yesterday he added seventeen crates to the ship ment. While it is not known yet what the cantaloupes of this ship. ment will bring the producers, . most conservative estimate is made. It is conservative in fact that it is safe bet that it is below the real figures This estimate is $50 a crate after the payment of all expenses of plant ing, gathering, shipment and selling
 The total acreage about Mesa hal been little more than doubled thil year. Last year there were about 35( acres. Now there are about 750 il the association. Last year I62 car
 were shipped east and about 20 wer
 sold to local points.

Defends Arizona
 Indian Agent

w. H. Gill, the sub Indian agent at Fort Mcdowell. who recently killed an Indian there by the name of Austin Navajo, which created c great deal of excitmeDt at the time and some talk of an Indian uprising, and who has been very severely criticised in some quarters for his actions both before and after the deplorsble affair, has r. ceived letter from Commis- sioner of Indian Affairs Francis E. Leupp. in which .ha. official warmly comments his course. The letter in full follows:
 "Los Angeles, Cal,
 July 8. 1907
 "My Dear MT. Gill: As I hear that certain cheap sentimentslistsa and sem sation- mongers are trying to put you in false light in connection with the recent tragic episode at Fort Me Dowell station. l am moved to take this means of expressing my faith in you.
 "It is always a deplorable extremity which involves the violent shedding of human blood; but when a human being, no matter of what race or color lowers himself to the level of a mao dog, he deserves the consideration VI show to a mad dog and not one whi more.
 "For the performance of your dut as instructed by your superiors yol were pursued and your life put il peril. Tn protecting your own life a the cost of another you did absolutel right, and as your chief, I wish t commend you and take my full shs, of the responsibility.
 . "I have notified headquarters a Washington that l wish you not onl sustained and defended to the flu limit of tine powers of the India office, but offered promotion st tn first opportunity, for having show yourself a true man and faithfr servant to the government ;n tryin situation.

Arizona Republicans
 Becoming Anxious

c. F. Ainsworth, attorney, politi- elan and apostle of iointism in Ari- zona, is to te in Oyster Bay July 25 for a conference with President Roose. welt regarding the Arizona situation, especially with reference to the gov ernors chair and the attitude of the next congress toward the territories.
 While Ainsworth is pledged to sup port General T. F. Wilson of Tucson for governor in the event of there be- ing a change in Arizona, other leqd- ing lights in the coterie of jointists are by no means satisfied with the Tucson statesman, ana have already begun A fight against him.
 In Phoenix there is dissension and discord in the ranks, and all over the possible naming of Wilson by Presi- dent Roosevelt to succeed Governor Kibbey should the latter at any time decide that he does not want to con tinue the head of the territory.
 The worry among g. 0. p leaders is not confined to any one particular section, those of Cochise county be-
 wsiling the possibility of General Wi,- con succeeding to the gubernatorial
 seat in the event the present incum'
 bent should conclude to vacste after
 General Aipsworth shall have con-
 ferred with the president. But there
 Is Jack of harmony among Cochist
 county republicans, the Bisbee con-
 tingent being at outs among them
 selves, while the Douglas faction re
 fuses to be reconciled to anything
 short of subserviency and unqualified
 domination. But while discord is up
 permost in those two strongholds-i
 we may be psrdoned for calling then thst-Tombstone republican adher, ents are vigorously "sawine wood
 and saying little A. H. Gardner the most sagscious of the several AS ute leaders, is apparently uncon.
 cerned in the family disagreement but it is safe to wager that his voic' will be heard and needed before an, radical steps are taken in regard t
 Arizona affairs. Mir. Gardner's wid acquaintance back east among mel of political strength gives him th whip handle, and he may be dependet upon to wield the lash SO that thu swing team will divide the load witt ] the leaders while the wheelers are CD deavoring to steer clear of ruts.

J. N. Curtis and Alfred S. Donau left yesterday afternoon for the min. ing properties of the Sitruce Mines Co. TSesa mines are situatei in the Huachrcs mountains, II miles from Hereford station, on the E. P. & s. W. railroad.

 A vast amount of development work has already been done on them and now Mr. Curtis will place them upon . dividend paying basis.
 The camp is situated about 5000 feet above sea level and is most advantage. ously located. Two large springs of water are just above the camp, which furnish ample supply for both domes- tic and mining purposes.
 Mir. Curtis has bought these prop critics with his o.n money and will develop them with his own money, He has purchased them on his own good judgment and now has c free hand to work them a he sees fit. Mir. Curtis is known as one of the most successful mine operators Tn the south- west.
 It was his energy and practical ideas that placed the Old Boot mine in condition to be sold for . large amount of money to the Imperial people. It has since been proven to be one of the big mines of Arizona. He believes that he will make the sitruce properties equally as valuable. Tucson Star.

Honoring Memory
 Indian Fighter

During the last session of the terri torial legislature Councilman Geo. W. P Hunt Of Gila county caused to be inserted in the appropriation bill a clause appropriating sl0O from the territorial funds for the erection of a monument to the memory of the late Al Seiber, the pioneer scout and Indian fighter, who was accidentally killed at Roosevelt while the legisla- ture was in session. Recently the ter. ritOrial board of control informed Mir Hunt of the granting of the funds and he was given charge of the memorial to be erected over the old pioneers grave in Globe.
 The Silver Belt says MT. Hunt has decided that the most fitting monu- ment would be one of native granites which also would not be as costly as an imported monument. Work has begun on it and it will be completed in few weeks.
 The monument will be of two large boulders of native granite. One of these will serve as base, and the other, which will be about five feet high, will be erected on it. Only the front of it will be polished and suit able inscription engraved upon it. It is planned to have brief exercises at the grave when the monument is placed in position.
