Springs Second Sensation.

While occupants of the crowded
courtroom leaned forward in amaze
ment at the drastic arraignment of the
corporation and the gigantic penalty
melted out to it. the jurist stirred them
anew Judge Lands had no sooner
mentioned the amount of the S29,24O.-
600 fine than he caused a second ire
mendous sensation that he would call
a grand jury to investigate the rela-
tons of the railroads to the big rebate
conspiracy. In view of his remark
that the penitentiary was the place for

they may be sentenced to serve time.
the effect was electric.
Rockefeller and his associates. to-
gether with the officials of the Chicago
and Alton Railroad, might be sent to
the penitentiary as the result of this
new investigation" admitted one of the
attaches of the District Attorneys of
fee. This could only be done if the
offenses have been continued since Con-
gress made conspiracy in restraint of
trade a penitentiary offense.'
1t was a dramatic morning in court.
What Judge Lands had to say to John
D. Rocllefeller's trust will live as one
of the most remarkable utterances com
ing from the bench. Twice Judge

Backed by the cohesive forces OF the
United States authorities, it is expect
ed that Judge Lands will proceed
against the railroad companies that
gave to Mr.. Rockefeller's oil trust IL
legal rebates And he will attack the
individuals of both the oil and the
railroad corporations instituting and
permitting such preferential rates. The
railroads are likely to be indicted on
lines identical with the procedure in

REPUBLICAN WAR

Some Think Roosevelt Will Draw Divided Delegation
 from Arizona,
s 4-s['

TUCSON, Sept. 5-The Republi- can war in Arizona is not over yet.
 Fhe lineup is a little different, however, and the position formerly occupied by the jointists is filled to overflowing by the "antis" and vice versa.
 From expressions heard during the past three days the president has jumped out of the frying pan into the fire and 1t is more than likely that all the returns Theodore will receive from his Arizona political trade will De d uIVfa5u uTfEEdITUII.

Whites at BeIIingham Tired of InSoIenCe and Insults to Women, Start Hundreds of Blacks Toward Canata.

BELLINGHAM, Wn. .Sppt. B. Six badly beaten Hindus in the hos pital. 400 frightened and half naked Sikhs in the jail and corridors of the city hall, guarded by policemen; somewhere between Bellingham and the British Columbia lline, 75O natives of India, beaten, hungry and half clothed, making their way alOns the Great Northern railway, bound for Canadian Territory and the protec- tion of the British flag, results from the long expected driye-out of Hindus last night.
 The police and other authorities were helpless while for five hours mob of half a thousand white men raided the mills where the blacks were working and battered down the doors of lodging houses sheltered the foreigners, dragg- ing the invaders from beds With a beating they started them for the city limits with orders to keep going.
 The trouble started at c and Holly streets last night. a district with In dian lodging houses. The houses were cleaned out and the denizeus started on a tramp for the Canadian line The mob then swept down to the, water front Mill after mill was visited, the white emplyes joining the mob and every black man hustled outside. Here the police suggested that the undeairabbles be taken to jail. This was bailled with delight and the blacks hustled along.
 From this time on very few were beaten and the bIOOd-thirsty ones of the mob were seemingly satisfied dur ing the attack on the lodging houses. The mob kept up its work along the water front until early this morning when LarSen's mill was visited and 100 blacks brought in. There were four women found this morning among the city buildings There is quiet today, but a strong undercurTent of opinion apparently approves the ac- tiOn of the mob. I may be found impossible to prosecute the leaders.
 Racial feeling played but a small part in the affair. Every day whites were being replaced in the mills by the blacks. The invaders become bold and insolent and many instances of women being pushed into the gutter, insulted on street cars. etc. being re- ported. The general uneasiness of the whites is given as the reason for the outbreak. The Hindus are all British subjects and the case is being placed before the British authorities.

the man behind and that the govern or and his followers could not carry Arizona for Roosevelt if they tried. Now it is evident that Kibbey and Sturgis will make the trial and it behooves the jointists to show that they have not lost their political cum ming.
 Ainsworth is a shrewd political manipulator and stops at nothing to xzin- -nnlitinaI trick -A1raadU he is talking of the political trade between the president and Sturgis for Ari- zonas six delegates in the next con- vention and does not hesitate to say that the peple of Arizona will refuse to be a party to the political trades made by handful of men. It is not likely that the Northern counties, which are controlled more or less by the Santa Fe railroad and the Southren counties, which are dominated to a certain extent by the Southern Pacific road will be very enthusiastic for Theodore, the Railroad Regulator" !" District Attorney Morrison is already out in an interview declar,'', that Yavapai county will not be fo. yoose- welt. All this is known to the van quished jointists leader and he may be depended upon to make the most of it.
 It is not at all certain that Arizona will send six Roosevelt delegates to the national convention. Plainly there is another fight on in the G. o. P. circles, but the lineup is diff ferent.

.B|SBEE HONORED BY RULER IF B. ?. !. [.
M. ]. Cunningham Is Selected to Fill Office of District Dep uV by Grand Exalted Ruler of Order.

Yesterday afternoon NJ. J. Cunning ham, the well known local banker, received a letter from John K. TeneT, grand exalted ruler of the Benevolent and Protective Ordar of Elks, inform ing him that he had been selected for the office of district deputy of the order in Arizona, to succeed O. c. Parker, who was honOred with the office last year.
 For a long time past members of the local Elks lodge. which is the largest in the Territory have been anxious to secure the coveted honor for one of their number, but have been unsuccessful until the present. During the past five years the district deputy has always been a member of the Tucson lodge.
 About a year ago renewed efforts were made to secure the honor for Bisbee. and rMs J. Cunningham, a charter member of No. 671, and past exalted ruler of the lodge was the candidate selected. Since that time the local Elks have been untiring in their efforts, and carried the matter back to the grand lodge which was held in Philadelphia this year. The letter from the grand exalted ruler makes evident that the campaign has been successful.
 When the letter was received in BisbDee Mir. Cunningham, although he fully appreciated the honor which had been accorded him. felt that he wOuldl have to decline, because of the fact that his business interests are such that he did not think he could spare the time to attend to the duties of the office. His numerous friends. however, have demanded that he should accept the honor, and he has done so.
 The new district deputy succeeds O. c. Parker, of Tucson, who held the Cffice during the last term, with great success.
 There is no doubt that the know ledge of Mir. Cunningham's accession to the head of the order in the Terri tory will be received by all Elks with @ feeling that it is but a just reCog- milton of his untiring efforts for the building up of the local lodge. and the carrying out of it's admirable aims, during his six years of membership. That the order in this section will profit greatly in all ways under his administration is undOubted.

LELEVIER FACES CHARGES IN
 PHOENIX

PHOENIX. Sept. 5.-Claiming that he is the victim of the political en- mity of Mexican officials, G. G. Le- levier waits in the Maricopa county jail for his hearing before Court Commissioner Mccormick on a charge of larceny of two checks at Naco, Sonora, the object of this hear ing being to extradite him to Mexico.
 Lelevier was brought here from Tucson today by Deputy United States Marshal Myers, Mexican Con- sul Arturio Nj. Elias coming with them to look after the legal interests of his government
 In the documentary evidence, fur nished by the Mexican government and in which the prisoners extra dition is asked, it is shown that while Lelevier was a custom broker at Naco he came into possession of two checks, one of which had been sent from Cananea to Montgomery, Ward 6 Co.,, of Chicago in payment for merchandise.
 Not receiving the goods or any re- ply from the Chicago firm. the Can anea man wrote them, receiving a re. ply that they had not received the check from Lelevier in payment for goods he requested them to send.
 Lelevier's son was employed in the Naco. Sonora, postoffice. and it is al. legged that while there he stole the checks from registered letters, and turned them over to his father, who himself used them in the purchase of goods from the Chicago house.
 Lelevier has been in jail at Tucson for forty days, having been arrested with hisson at Douglas where he was editing a revolutionary newspaper.
 Since his arrest Lelevier has claim. ed that he is the victim of political enemies at Naco, whom he claims to have exposed, which resulted in their being fined by the Mexican govern ment.
 It has also been admitted by Le, levier that he cashed the check, but he claims that it was brought him by his son, and that he did not know it was not rightfuIly his property.
 Lelevier will make fight to es- cape being returned into Mexico, where he says he will suffer because of his support of reforms in the Mex ican government. Lelevier some time ago cast his lot with the revolution ists and is strongly an antagonist to President Diaz and his followers.

DISAPPEARANCE
 IS COMPLETE MYSTERY
Not Slightest Trace of Andrew Johnson, ProSpeCt0r, Has Been Found Since June 20 -InSanity Is Feared

Without exception the strangest disappearance of a human being that has ever occurred in the Warren district is that of Andrew Johnson, an old time prOsp2ctor wno was last seen in this city while serving on jury in one of the local justice courts on June 20, and of whom not the slightest trace has been found since that time. In spite of the length of time which has elapsed his partner John O'Brien is still hunting for the missing man, and Sheriff White has instructed all his deputies to be on the lookout for the prospec' tor, who was well known throughout the county.
 On the 18th day of June. Johnson came into the city from his camp in Tombstone canyon for the purpose of getting some provisions, and on the morning of the 20Ch was sum mOned to serve as a juror in the trial of Q case in Justice Hogan's court After he had finished his work as g juror Johnson disappeared from view and has never been seen since.
 O'Brien. JohnsOns partner, became alarmed over his long absence, and about the end of June came into the city. thinking that perhaps he had been taken sick. and was in the hos. pital On arriving here he inquired at all of the hospitals and at ali of the places where the missing man usually spent his time. but could not find the slightest trace of him. Think. ing then that he might have acci- dentally fallen into a prospect hole while on his way to camp, OBrieu searched all of the district between the city and their cabin. looking into all the prospect holes, but still found no trace.
 All of the prOspectOr's effects at the cabin were undisturbed, his tools. guns. ammunition, clothing. and grub being found just as he had left them
 It is mt thought possible that Johnson could have lost his way while travelling to his camp. because of the fact that he was familiar with every foot of ground in the district, having prOspected in this section of the country for years. His friends are of the opinion that his mind must have become unbalanced, and while in this condition he wandered off into the mountains.

Poultry FEEDING.

Rice is almost valueless as a poul-
try food and should never be so EN-
ployed. Buckwheat is very much rel
ished by poultry. The color and shape
of the kernels are strange to them at
first, but once they know what they
are they will leave other grain for It.
Being deficient of flesh forming sub
stances, It should only be used at In
tervals as change. Potatoes should
only be used when they are the refuse
from the table and never alone. but
