to Ellicott's Mills. A year or two
later engines of a more improved type
were successfully tried and from that
time dates the expansion of the great
Baltimore G Ohio system.
Under the management of John w.
Garrett the road arose to a prosperity
that even he had not dreamed of. The
company's stock paid 10 per cent divi-
dends. If a dying man had money in
the Baltimore & Ohio he died content,
for he knew his widow was provided
for.
John w. Garrett died in 1884, and
his son, Robert Garrett, succeeded
him as president of the Baltimore &
Ohio. One of the most interesting
chapters in the history occurred when
Robert Garrett opened the bottle Of
champagne that cost millions"
At that time there was one railroad
between Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Robert Garrett wanted 1t for the Balti-
more & Ohio. Thomas A. Scott want
ed it for the Pennsylvania railroad.
That railroad was the Philadelphia,
Wilmington & Baltimore. Just at that
time it was naturally the most desIr-
able thing in the world for the B. &
o. and likewise for the Pennsylvania.
Robert Garrett set about to acquire
the property. He learned that several
of the largest owners of stock lived
in Boston. With their stock in his
possession he could easily get control
of the majority. So he went to Bos-
ton, where his negotiations were emil
nently successful. Already in his
minds eye he saw the B., & O. trains
rolling into Philadelphia.
But Robert Garrett was never a
self-contained man. He drank deep.
Arrived in New York he went to a
dinner party. Some corporation law
yers were among those present. At
that dinner party the bottle of cham
payne that cost millions was opened.
Robert Garrett drank it. Flushed, he
could not keep his triumphant secret.
But one man, whose legs were under
the mahogany, did not drink. He e1-

cused himself about 10 p. m. and left
the table. Before daylight he was IN
Philadelphia and at the house OF
Thomas A. Scott, president of the
Pennsylvania. The next morning en-
issaries of the Pennsylvania were
hurrying to Boston and other points
to get hold of the P. w. & B. stock.
BY 2 o'clock the next day the papers
were signed, 100000 in cash paid
over, and the Pennsylvania railroad
had control of the Philadelphia, Will
mington & Baltimore.
When Robert Garrett awoke on
what he firmly believed was to be the
morning Of his triumph the news
papers were full of the deal between
the Pennsylvania and the P. w. & B.
Robert Garrett then determined that
the Baltimore & Ohio would build it's
own line into Philadelphia. This it
finally did, but at such a cost that the
B. & o. found itself on the brink OF
insolvency in 1887. Drexel, Morgan &
Co. advanced the money that delayed
the day of reckoning. But, before
lending cent, Mr.. Morgan demanded
that Robert Garrett resign the presi-
dency. Samuel Spencer, who was vice.
president of the B. & o. became presi-
dent in Mr.. CARROTS stead.
Then came period of more vicissi-
tudes. Charles F. Mayer succeeded
Spencer as president and was in turn
succeeded by John X. Cowan. In 1896
the affairs of the road reached crisis
and the property was placed in the
hands of receiver.
Then came the turn of the tide.
With her improved track conditions
and her excellent facilities for handl-
ing traffic, by the addition of motive
power and rolling stock of the most
improved type, the Baltimore & Ohio
is now enjoying her share of traffic
offered by all lines of industry and is
riding apace with the other large
trunk line systems on the wave Of
prosperity prevalent throughout the
country.

than to give him the laugh.

Copper Supply and Market

correspondent writes the following concerning the copper situation to the Cincinnati Enquirer from New York city:
 As seemed inevitable, further cut in the official price of copper controlled by the large selling agencies has been made, the new basis being 1872 cents for Electrolytic. Simultaneously with the announcement of this price on Sat urday it came from London over the cable that Electrolytic copper was being offered there at 15.60 to 15.70 cents f. o. b. New York. The price of 1872 cents is hardly what the trade has been look. ing for, inasmuch as the impression had become quite general that copper would be forced to Is cents at the least. lf however, the big curtailments in pro- duction, which now seems altogether likely, the adoption of such policy win of course put another light on the situ- ation. Boston advices are to the effect that Phelps Dodge & Co. have given orders to curtail the production of the Copper Queen mine at Bisbee, Ariz., by laying off men. Such a move alone would reduce the copper output 1,0O0,- 900 pounds this month and 100000 pounds next month. The Amalgamated Copper company, it is said, will cut it's output from 20,000,000 to about 5000. 900 pounds month. It is said the Amalgamated company has already cut it's force of miners from $500 to 4,O0O men, the cessation of operations being confined to production, development work going on as usual. Discussing the policy of curtailment man conversant with the copper situation said: "Con- sumers are liable to take different viewpoint of the copper situation as soon as they find that producers are in earnest in their plan to restrict produc- tion to, say, 50 per cent of the natural output for two or three months per. iod. This can be lcgitimately done, for no one is forced to produce an article for which there is no ready sale, and such a policy is followed by the heads

Summary of the Territorial Baseball
 Controversy Is Given

All territorial ball teams are still on the diamond except the Prescott nine, which has put the paraphernalia away in the moth balls until the snows of winter have passed, says the Arizona Republican. They expect to have the best nine in the spring that ever played in a bush league Prescott has closed the season with a good record, winning twenty-two games out of twenty-eight. Tucson is now in the class with Phoe- nix, though little above the cellar in which the Athletics have been stored. Tucson has won four and lost seven. Yuma has played seven and carted away four in the game bag. Humboldt before going into retirement played eight games, winning two from Pres colt, one from Tucson and lost five to the Mile High aggregation. Globe and Cananea both have been playing fast ball, with the argument in favor of the latter.

There are great many people who have slight attacks of indigestion and dyspepsia nearly all the time. Their food may satisfy the appetite, but it fails to nourish the body simply because the stomach is not in fit condition to do the work it is supposed to do. It can't digest the food you eat. The stomach should be given help. You ought to take samething that will do the work your stomach can't. do. Ko- dol for Indigestion and Dyspepsia, a combination of natural digestants and vegetable acids, digests the food itself and gives health and strength to the stomach. Pleasant to take.

The posse composed of Sheriff Pa checo, Deputy Tom Mills, Captain Har- " Wheeler of the Arizona rangers and Rangers Jeff Kidder, Tip Stanford, Miles, Smith, Poole, Rhodes and Bates, returned last evening about 9 o'clock from their trip to the Fl Cobo country, where they went on Sunday, the 18th instant, in quest of John Johns, Pap ago Indian wanted for the murder of Lariano Alvarez, which was committed during the month of August, says the Arizona Star.
 The party returned with their man and also another Indian named Citiano whom Johns duplicates in the murder, without having the slightest kind of trouble and without having to fire a single shot in the capture of Johns or his alleged confederate.
 The posse arrived at the Fl Cobo camp of the Papagoes on Thursday afternoon of last week about O clock in the afternoon. The town was i'm mediately surrounded but the rangers found that on closing in that there was not a man in the camp, they all being out at work in the fields and gathering cattle. As fast as any of the men showed up they were placed under ar rest until it was learned where Johns was. A part of the force started to- ward the place or field where Johns was at work and had reached distance of about 100 yards from the field when two Indians walked out of the wheat patch, one of them kept on coming to- ward the posse, while the other one | turned and started to run into the brush. He was quickly overhauled and it was then discovered that 1t was Johns, the man wanted.
 The posse having ridden hard that day, decided to camp with the Indians that night, number of the force do. ing guard duty during the night to frustrate any attempt on the part of the Indians to rescue Johns, but not . single move was made by them.
 The next morning the homeward trip was commenced and the distance of l5C miles was covered in three days time Johns and his companion were placed in the wagon and various members of the posse watched their movements un. til they were placed in the county jail by deputy Mills and the shaekles re- moved from their legs, the irons having been applied at the time they were ar rested.
 Johns, upon being arrested, made a statement that implicated Citiano and he was rounded up by the posse and placed in irons with Johns, and tho two kept together until they arrived in this city.
 The above facts were learned last evening from Captain Harry Wheeler of the Arizoia rangers. Captain Wheel CT said that it was very evident that the Indians did not know that the posse was coming, as Johns could have made his escape, and that the Indians were taken by surprise when they came into town and found the entire eamT under the control of the white posse.
 The posse had considerable trouble in getting guide to take them into the Fl Cobo country, as the Indians ir the vicinity of Quijotoa refused to ac company the posse, but finally one was persuaded to do so.

ANOTHER OREGON IDEA

The father of the initiative and ref erendum in Oregon, who rejoices in the name of U 'Ren-remember the name, it may be famous ereafter-proposes to elineh and rivet the hold of the people of Oregon upon the government thereof by abolishing a few obstacles interposed by the constitution of the United States. The people of Oregon already enjoy the privilege of indicating their choice for United States senator, but there is a possibility, always, that mem bers of the legislature may persist in a slavish obedience to the constitution, which provides that the legislature shall choose senator. It is feared by Father U'Ren that some legislators may insist that they cannot choose senator unless given the power of selection between two or more candidates, and therefore that they cannot be bound to vote for the person indicated by the people at the primary.
 Father U 'Ren intends to remedy this state of affairs by requiring all candi- dates for the legislature to sign Statement No. l." which is a prom ise to vote for the candidate for senator receiving the highest number of votes at the general election. In order to force the surrender of independence on the part of legislators, Father U'Ren offers bill, to be enacted by the peo- pie of Oregon through the initiative, which commands candidates for the leg. islature to sign Statement No. l, and instructs them if elected to vote for the senator favored by the people.
 The situation is thus presented by Father U'Ren: "When the people of Oregon instruct a member of the legisla tive assembly to vote for one candidate for United States senator, and his owp inclination, or his political party, de mands that he vote for another, shal he obey the people or vote as he pleases or obey his party' Who is to be mas ter of Oregon-the people, the member of the legislature, or the political party
 Things are in parious state in Ore gon if the people are dominated by masterful and defiant members of tho legislature, who in turn are mastered by powerful political parties utterly inde pendent of the people. Perhaps Father U 'Ren is right in his proposal to rot the legislature of the right and duty of eleeting senators, but he should first make one more heroic struggle to prov, that the people who elect legislatures and compose political parties are no the slaves of their own creatures. If i should appear that the legislature il uncomfortable and political parties SC

In Arizona

The sheriff s office of this county is engaged in the compilation of list of all the peace officers of the territory, says the Phoenix Republican, which will shortly be published in pamphlet form. It will contain the names and addresses of all the sheriffs, deputies, constables, rangers and live stock inspectors. Re quests were sent out to all of the sher- iffs to furnish the names of the officers within their counties and all but four of them have so far complied. The object of the enterprise is to enable all officers to communicate with all other officers more quickly and aecur' ately by mail or telegraph when emer' geney requires.
