BUCkMER IS HELD
 TO THE GRAND JURY

GLOBE. Nov. 23.-Henry Buckner arrested on the night of October 21, charged with shooting David James. with intent to commit murder, had q hearing in Justice Thomas court Tuesday afternoon and was held to the grand jury, which will convene Mon day, in the sum of s15.000. Failing to make bond, he was committed to the county jail
 The only witness testifying at the hearing was David James, who was recently discharged from the hospital, after suffering for a number of weeks from a bullet wound in the abdomen. Mir. James testimony in substance was as follows:
 "On October 21. while in the per formance of my regular business du- ties in different parts of the city, saw Henry Buckner four times-once in the morning, walking on Broad street, and three times in the after noon, riding a black horse.
 T went to my home on Oak street for supper between 6 and o'clock. From the house I went to Keegan's saloon, where I met and conyersed vita Dick Matthews. l stopped few moments and chatted with him and then started for the electric light plant going north on Broad street and then west on Mesquite. It was few minutes after o'clock. As l ap- preached the railroad track on Mes quite street a horseman rode up be hind me and stepped to one side to avoid being knocked down,as the horse was coming very close and di- rectly behind me. As the horse was just opposite me looked up. I saw a flash, heard the report of a revolver, felt the stiging of shot in my abdo- men and cried:
 "1'm shoti I'm shoti'
 q then made my way to the office of the power plant and was taken to the Old Dominion hospital"
 Did you recognize the man on the horse7" asked District Attorney Hen ry
 T did replied the witness.
 Who was that man2"
 Henry Buekner."
 Are you positive on that point?"
 T am. It was quite light. It was Henry Buckner, and he was riding black horse"
 Tn which direction did he ride after firing the shot?''
 T cannot state?''
 This concluded the testimony of MT. James and the prosecution rested.

WOULD WAIVE ASSESSMENT
 WORK FOR A YEAR
YT.esnn c+a-4 E tH @7sH7gAa EgEuuEsF

At an informal meeting of mine owners in this district, held Monday in this city, it was decided by those present at the meeting to unite with the Los Angeles Chamber of Mines in petitioning the United States con gress to waive for 1907 and 1908 the provisions in the national law which require assessment work, owing to the financial stringency, which makes 1t impossible for many claim holders to work their properties through lack of ready funds.
 The Los Angeles stock exchange has also adopted the same course, although their resolutions differ from those of
Bisbee daily review., 1907-11-24

the chamber of mines in asking that the waiving be for 1907 only.
 One of the reasons giver for the drafting of these resolutions, besides the effect of the financial situation on claim holders, is the possibility of riot and lawlessness in the mining districts. This refers to the general tendency of the residents of these dis tricts to stand up and argue with claim-jumper with shotgun, and the condition there if the assessment work was required at the present time would make an ideal situation for jumpers" to take advantage of.
 The action taken in Los Angeles was the result of numerous requests from holders of claims through the state, and the reasons given by local mining men for endorsing the move are as

The law requires that at least s10N worth of development work be done in each claim, and many find it impos- sible to raise the necessary funds for this assessment work at the present time.
