clear that all such reports were I'M

around the middle of the day and the

ment, which carried the leaders down with

entire list showed the greatest weakness.
The rally in the last ten minutes, which
carried prices from ] 70 - per cent up,
was caused by the short covering on the
part of room traders During this decline

Neither would I buy. for without the sup

the saying Is. The price crumbled away

The young brokers. who have been qui-

in marking the price up to 697s. with some

erLA.ssND KILLING HUNDRED.
lPhoenix Gazette.l

Reports of a wild nature have been flying about Phoenix all day to the ef- feet that a deputy sheriff and two h. dians were killed at Gila Bend last night. Three or four different yer sions of the affair are fin circulation. but none of them can be verified since the telephone line to that place Is out of order
 The most authentic report that can be obtained is given by Andrew Dillon and Scott Ham of Gila Bend, who ar rived here this morning. They left that place last night, arriving at Mari copa about g o'clock. Here two freight conductors told them of a report that had come from Tucson that Deputy Sheriff w T. Williams had been killed by drunken Indians and some one else had killed two of the red skins. They could not obtain further particulars by any means whatever.
 They are inclined to believe that if there was trouble 1t was with Mexi-
 ans and not Indians, for when they left there at o'clock there were nc Indians in the town. Most of the pop ulation is Mexican section hands. etc. who have been on a drunk for three or four days.
 Another report which reached the sheriff's office was to the effect that the man who held the position of dep uty before Williams was the man who was killed. This was Iryal Howell. proprietor of the saloon in which Dill lon is employed.
