 HOSE CONTRACT
Paddock Brothers, Bidding S3r895, Will Reconstruct
 City Hall Building.

DOUGLAS, August 7.-(Special.) )--
 The American Hose company of Dallas, Texas, whose representative, H. H. Avis, was on the ground, was last night at the regular monthly meeting of the city council given the contract for 1900 feet of fire hose after much heated competition. The offer made by this company was con sidered better than all others because of the unqualified guarantee given. Three grades of hose were offered by this company and the eighty cents per foot grade was the one purchased. It Is guaranteed for five years and war ranted to stand 500 pounds pressure. There were a half dozen or more com petitors for the hose contract, among them being Roy and Titconb of this city.
 Bids were opened during the even ing for steam fire engines and three companies submitted bids, each being practically the same, or $5200 and $500. In order to go into the speci- fications of the several bids more ex- haustively than was possible last night, the council d:d not take final action on the bids but will meet this afternoon Their decision will be an- nounced at a special meeting that VIII be held Wednesday evening Of this week.
 Paddock brothers. with a bid of s3,S95, were given the contract for the remodeling of the city hall over two other local contractors. The sue cessful bsd was considerably under that of the other two.

WANT CITY ID PAY
 $500 DAMAGES
Claims in This Amount Pre- sented City by G. J, Brown
 and Albert EiCke.

DOUGLAS, August 7.-(Special.1- Each claiming that he received $500 worth of personal damages as the result of falling into an open ana unprotected sewer ditch, G. J. Brown and Albert Eicke have filed a formal claim for that amount with the city council, and dhe outcome may be that the sewer system will cost someone either the city or the contractors 5000 that had not been anticipated when the original estimates were made.
 These claims were filed against the city by Parsons and Beumler as legal representatives of the claimants MT. Parsons was present at the council meeting last night and explained the matter to the councilmen. He said the claims were left with them ais be ing bona fide in every sense. His firm had been requested to bring suit against the city but upon his recon mendation his clients had presented the matter out of courtesy to the city. thinking perhaps that a basis of set clement could be reached without le- gal proceedings in the courts.
 The claims were received by the CBulElt anu Jile udyOE IelSIIeu lutlA to a special committee composed of City Attorney Lockwood and Alder men Greene and Prickett with the re quest that they investigate the claims and report back at the next meeting of the council.
 The claimants in their statements presented to the council assert that they both received damages of bodi. ly nature that incapacitated them from work c. J. Brown claims he fell into an open ditch on the east side of H avenue and that he sus- tained serious injuries to hs face, nose, teeth, leg and side.
 Albert Eicke. of "Eicke's place" says he fell into an unprotected ditch on the east side ff Rsilroad Avenue between Ninth sld Tenth and re- ceived severe and painful injuries about the chest and shoulders.

 MEXICAN
In General Rough House at South Bisbee Gun User Tries to Flee and Is Stopped by Bullets.
Review Branch. Telephone 6s.

LOWSI, Aftz., July (.
 Last night about F o'clock a Mexi- can woman accompanied by two small children walked into Lowell from South Bisbee and reported to Deputy Sheriffs Bauer and Humm that gang of drunken paisanos were making life miserable for the women inhabitants of the Mexican settlement of South Bisbee, by breaking in doors and by otherwise conducting themselves in a disorderly manner. The officers i'm mediately mounted their horses and left for the scene.
 Arriving there they had no trouble in locating the ring leader of the disturb snce, and after placing him under ar rest the officers started with their prisoner for Lowell. They had not proceeded far when a gun shot rang out from the direction of the main road to Don Luis, and they retraced their steps and coming upon a crowd of three or four Mexicans they inquired who fired the shots. At this one Se- bastian Deigado started to rua, the officers calling to him to stop or they would shoot.
 Delgado replied by calling the of ficers a lot of bad names and defying them to shoot. Both Bauer and Humm pulled their guns and fired simultane- ously At the second shot Delgado dropped. The officers then approach ed and found that Deigado had been hit in the head and also in the right groin. He was immediately removed to the branch county jail in Bisbee and the doctors notified. After an examin- ation it was thought best to have the prisoner taken to the county hospital at Tombstone, Deputy Sherif Bill White leaving for there this afternoon.
 When searched at the jail it was Found that Delgado had something like twenty-five rife cartridges, No. 30-30, in his pockets. It is the opinion of

This morning about 2 o'clock there was several little impromptu knock
 down and drag outs in several of the thirst emporiums in this thriving city. The first preliminary on the card oc. cured at the Swim saloon when Har- vey Hughes in company with several friends went into the saloon to par take of night-cap before retiring. While Hughes and his friends were waiting to be served one James Tiddy, who has been more or less before the public lately as defendant in several actions before the local justice court, cut into the conversation by remark ing that he had so much money it
 made him tired to carry it around. and
 as a spender, he had Death Valley Scotty" buried in one of his own pros
 pect holes. Right here Hughes drove
 in with the remark that if this modern Coal Oil Johnny" was over burdened
 with mazuma he iould separate him
 self from some of it by paying few
 bills on she street This caused MT.
 Tiddy to become quite peevish, for he immediately swung sleep potion at

Big George Bockman being the first to take the count. George got poke in the eye. About this time Charley Glover walked in the door when some one kicked Charley in the breadbasket with both feet. landing him out in the mid dle of the street. The officers broke in at this stage anu pinched the whole bunch. Judge Grier will listen to their tale of woe in the morning.
 About an hour after this Pink Tea party, three Mexicans drove up in a carriage and tying their team to tele- graph pole adjourned to one of the re freshment parlors to liquor up. Upon coming out they observed what they thought to be two suspicious looking characters standing near their team, without asking for an explanation one of them walked up and swinging hay

 The entire day in the local iusts.e court has been taken up with the trial of Lou Shields, one of the pickets ar. rested some time ago. It was along about 10 a. m. before court convened and the morning was occupied in the selection of jury. The taking of evi- denee commenced shortly after lunch and was concluded at 4:30 D. m., the case going to the jury at 5 o'clock. They returned a verdict of not guilty within a few minutes. This will un- doubtedly dispose of the rest of the picket cases, as it has been impossible to get a verdict against them. The prosecution will no doubt move for the dismissal of the case against the others now pending.

It is not thought Deldago will be able to survive his injuries as the wound in the groin is considered quite serious. officer Bauer has the sympathy of all his friends and he greatly deplores that 1t was necessary for him to fire on his man. but as the crowd was creating a general disturbance by loud and tnmultous conduct and discharging firearms, both he and Humm consider ed their lives in danger.

ENGINEER PROPHES|ES ABOUT RAILROADS
Says s. P, Will Surely Come Here, But Can Not Pro-
 pheCy as to Date,

J. A. Burton, chief engineer fol Grant brothers, the concern which Is
 building the Southern Pacific's So
 nora railroads, today admitted that ultimately" the northern terminus o1 the road will undoubtedly be Doug. las. Just what the date of ultimate ly'' is MT. Burton could not say but he implied that it would not be far from a year.
 Tt is admitted that the road is q Southern Pacific project" said Mir. Burton, "and the natural thing is that the owners will want to connect it with their main property The logical junction would be Douglas. Just now we are very. busy finishing the work begun in Mexico. That will occupy us for many months. But intimately we will build into Douglas. according to the present outlook. The construc- tors, of course, are not taken into the confidence of the projectors of the road and I speak only from general knowledge of the situation.
 There are now 800 or more men employed on the road. We are build ing north and south from Corral. So- nora, south toward Guaymas, where a ilAe IS DSlHS put out 10 meet U, ana north to NacoZari where no tracks have been laid as yet. Nacozari is the northern terminus in Mexico; Guadalaiara, near the Pacific coast, the southern. MaZatlan Is to be one of the principal stopping places and more than one side line will be built into important Sonora cities. The road will open up one of the richest countries in the world, whose mineral wealth people don't yet half know.
 T hear people down in Sonora speak of Douglas as haven of rest. Let's get up where it's cool-cool and American numbers of them say; and they come. They like their own na- tional surroundings as well as your climate-and that's pretty well Doug las will beyond doubt always be the haven of the numbers of Americans who venture into the country tapped by the s. P. Nacozari road, numbers that will increase year by year"
 MT. Burton reached Douglas yester- day and he will leave today-Inter- national-American.

Samuel Nainoa's famous glee club
furnished the music for the dancers
and every piece was encored. The club
showed a willingness - please that is

The appraised value of the Lanai
property was 100000
Mr.. Giffard has, ever since the inter-
ruption Of the deal by judicial proceed
ings, held in escrow the titles of the
properties undertaken to be conveyed
to the Government.
The deal was made after considerable
litigation in the local courts, a litiga-
ton quite brief but forming one of the
most interesting affairs of the kind in
recent occurrence. The Governor orig
inally called an open public meeting at
the Executive chambers for NoVember
&C. 1906, for a discussion of the propos-
ed exchange. His idea was, according
to his interviews in the public press,
to avoid the appearance of any star
chamber proceedings, and to give the
public an opportunity of discussing the
wisdom of the proposed exchange.
Some weeks prior to that meeting the
Governor had received a letter from
President Roosevelt on the subject
This letter was withheld by the Cover
nor from publication, so as to avoid
even color of suspicion, were it pub
lished while the deal was under fire in
the courts, that the Presidents APP
proval of his course was used to influ-
ence judicial action. The letter is as

1t should be born in mind that con-
sumption is a germ disease. 1t is not
caused by a cold but as a rule starts
with a cold The cold prepares the

ment of the germs of that disease which
otherwise would not have found lodge
