Border Bad Man in Tombstone Prison.

There is confined in the Cochise
county Jail in Tombstone at the pres
ent time one of the worst known
Mexican desperadoes who has been
operating on the border a number of
years, he is none other than Jesus
Trujillio OF Jesus Figureroa. Tru-
jillio was recently released from the
county Jail in Pima county where
he had been held for six months on a
charge of carrying concealed
weapons and was also held on sus-
picion of having been connected with
a murder committed in that county a
few years ago, but when the officials
began to try and hunt up the wit
nesses in the case it was discovered
that the most of them had left the
country and no case could be made
against him. He is held here on a
charge of grand larceny, having
about two years ago stolen saddle
from ranch on the San Pedro river
near Benson. After stealing the sad
die he took it to Tucson and sold it,
the saddle at the time having brand
on it. When arrested in Tucson his
six-shooter was found to be loaded
with cartridges that had been dip
ped in copper, making the bullets
most deadly poison. Trujillio had
made the threat that he would never
be taken alive, but the Tucson Of
fcers got the drop on him.
Trujillio is wanted in Sonora for
the murder of the Maxwell party,
which occurred in the vicinity of
Nacozari a few years since. At the
time of the murder Sheriff Jack
White was in that part of Sonora on
prospecting trip and Trujillio yis-
tied the camp of White and his
partners and a few days later the
Maxwell party was waylaid and kill
ed. The Mexican officials who took
the trail of the murderers pressed
them 50 hard that Trujillio and his
associates were compelled to aban-
don their horses, and among the
horses captured was the one that
Trujillio had ridden into the White
camp. Sheriff White is confident
that Trujillio was implicated in the
murder, and in the event that a case
is not made out against him here, it
is probable that the Mexican authori
ties will ask for his eXtradition. In
the event that this is done, there is
not much doubt but what the border
will be released from the presence of
Trujillio..

Troubles of Government ownership.

The Railroad Gazette says that the
government-owned railroads of Hun
gary are having troubles of even
more disastrous character than the
railroads of this country. Starting
from January 10, "all transportation
into Budapest, with the exception of
that of live stock, salt, coal and fire.
wood, was suspended. No freight de.
stined for Budapest was to be re-
ceived, while that en- route thither
was stopped and placed at the order
of the shipper. The order did not
affect goods shipped from Budapest.
1.-THE management stated that this
order was necessitated by the enor-
nous accumulation of merchandise
at all of the stations: accumulations
that have resulted from the delays to
traffic that have OCCURRED since
Christmas. The decision for this
action was taken suddenly on account
of the congestion that threatened
The transportation of
freight into Budapest has increased
very greatly since autumn. The last
order of this kind was issued in 1898.
The transportation of passengers
was not affected. The order natur-
ally created some excitement in COM
merCial circles, especially in view of
d threatened strike by the railroad
employees, and it was regarded as an
on the part of the manage
ment, to retain the mastery of the

The North American Copper COM
pany started in its traction engine
with its first carload of ore, thirty
tons, last week. 1t soon broke down.
Repairs were made and it was again
started. D. w. Briel, who has charge
of the North American work, spent
most of the day cutting sotos and
carrying rocks, to put under the
wheels, as a foundation for it to
travel over the sands, as when it
struck them the wheels would go
do wn, and the machine would stall.
Mr.. Briel thought he was attending
the Shriners' convention at Los
Angeles, and making his merry way
across the hot sands. When it had
gone as far as the Blue Bird mine, it
blew off its pop, the valve going
away off to the right of way, and all
the steam going out of the boiler.
No pop off valve was available, and
an ordinary valve was secured and
screwed into place. BY this time
$40 worth of coal had been consumed,
and the shipment of ore was two days
overdue at the platform. The loco
motive cut loose from the cars and
came to town for coal and water. 1t
returned and made vahent efforts to
get the ore to the platform.-Liberal.

situation

There has been very persistent buy
ing of Calumet & Arizona by Lake
Superior people during the past few
weeks. The directors of the COM
pany held an informal meeting at
Calumet last week. No statement
was made regarding the matters un-
der discussion, but it is generally sur
missed that one of the things that
came up for discussion was the divi-
dend to be declared the middle of
May. The dividend paid in March
was s. d share and there is no ques-
tion but what the next dividend will
be at least that amount. Had it not
been for the strike which curtailed
the production slightly. it is believed
that the Calumet & Arizona direc-
tors would decide on Sc dividend
for this quarter. While the strike
has not had any serious effect on the
earnings of the company, neverthe-
less it would be In line with the well
known conservatism of the directors
if they paid only So. The Calumet &
Arizona mite is now producing its
copper at as low a cost as any copper
mine in the world. 1t could pay $40
share per annum and add a million
dollars year to its surplus on an Is
cent copper market. Thus it will be
seen that its earnings on the present
copper market are greatly in excess
of the present dividend rate and if
the directors do not increase the
dividend this month, it is almost a
certainty that Sc will be paid in Sep
tember.-Ex.

was sent to investigate the Russian fam

of the famine district under date CT April
9. appeals to the United States and Great
Britain to promptly send help. He says:
There are 20,000.000 people distributed
i'm the southeastern provinces of Russia
who. without aid, cannot live to see an
other harvest
In Samara alone, the commissioner adds.
thousands are dying and 10000 are starv
ing. OF the latter only $4,000 are get
ting, relief a dole of one meal in twenty
four hours.
AS q meal is only two pounds of bread
and a bowl of soup, this, according to
the commissioner, means dying by de-
grees and a dole in many instances is
divided among many mouths. There are
only sufficient funds on hand to last I'M
til May l. whereas money will be needed
until the end of July, when the harvest
will bring relief. The commissioner es-
pecially appeals for canned milk. He
says there are 0)0000 children in Samara
province who have no milk and are
forced to eat coarse bread made of acorns
powdered wood and cucumbers. resulting
in thousands of deaths and much dis
ease.
In conclusion. the commissioner appeals
to the Anglo-Saxons for s.. 500000. to save
twenty millions of human beings who
are dying lingering deaths from starva-
ton.

IL was said that when Justice Fitz-

court house the officer on duty there
put the matter up to the jurors them
selves. asking if there was any posi-
bility of verdict within the next few
hours. The reply was strongly mega

hopelessly divided, and nobody con-

venture the hope of anything better
than a disagreement as the climax of

reluctant to wend his way back over
the dimly-lighted bridge of signs to his
cell in the Tombs, to say goodnight to
his wife.
The disa agreement of the jury Is the
most unfavorable outcome that Thaw
