SAW NEGROES FIRING.
Testimony of Witness in Brownsville
Inquiry.


Washington, May 16.-The examina-
ton of witnesses on behalf of the gov
eminent began during the day in the
Brownsville investigation before the
senate committee on military affairs.
George w. Kendall of Brownsville,
Tex, the first witness, testified that
or the night of Aug. 13, when the af-
fray occurred in Brownsville, he saw
men whom he declared to be negro
soldiers climb over the brick wall
from Fort Brown and enter the town.
He said also that he saw a group of
from three TO five men inside the gar
rison gate and saw the fash Of two
or three shots fired by men in another
group. These men, he said, moved up
the wall on the inside and joined an
other group OF ten or twelve men and
all of them climbed over the wall at
the alley between Elizabeth and
Washington streets. This is the alley
where a number of shells were picked
up the following morning. Kendall
could not tell in which direction the
men went after reaching the garrison
road.
On cross-eXamination Senator Fora
ker drew from the witness the state
ment that the negro soldiers were the
best behaved of any of the men he
had seen at Fort Brown in his forty
years residence there.

EUROPEAN WHEAT CROP.
Heavy shrinkage in Production A.
most a Certainty.

Berlin, May 16.--Interviews with q
number OF the leading grain merchants
and members Of the produce section
OF the bourse here disclose a feeling
of great uncertainty in connection
| with the grain situation. The dealers
| generally are disposed to regard the
present wave of speculation as being
an exaggeration. All admit, however,
that the United States at this moment
holds the key to the international sit
~uation, but the tendency is to believe
that the situation and the reports of
crop shortage are exaggerated so far
as the European situation is con.
cerned. The merchants add that 1t Is
also premature to predict a heavy
shrinkage OF production as a factor in
the general yield.
Various reports of poor crop pros
poets in Germany, Hungary, Rouma-
MIA and Russia are playing a role in
the price movement here. The Ger
man winter crop is admitted to be
much delayed and a considerable acre
age was frozen out, but nevertheless
good hopes are entertained that the
spring planting will overcome the
shortage due to the winter damage.
Reports also indicate an Improvement
In the Hungarian crop prospects as
the result of rains. The outlook along
the lower Danube and south of Russia,
however, is considered bad for win
ter grain but In the Volga valley and
north Of Russia the prospects are uni
formly good, which is expected to
counterbalance the Black Sea short
age. All things considered, dealers
here expect that the high prices will
be maintained in view of the growing
population in comparison with the
grain supplies.

Wit Regarding the Trade Affiliations
Of His Company.
st. Louis, May 16.-Judge Adams, In
the United States circuit court here,
denied the application of II. Clay
Pierce, chairman of the board of di-
rectors of the Waters-Pierce Oil COM
pany, for a writ of habeas corpus and
ordered that the petitioner be remand
ed to Sheriff George S. Mathews of
Travis county, Tex, for %extradition.
Pierce is wanted in Texas to answer
to an indictment charging perjury in
an affidavit made by him In May, 1900,
to the effect that the Waters-Pierce
Oil company was not a party to any
pool, trust, confederation or combina-
tion in restraint Of trade.
After Judge Adams had read his de-
SADNOu AtlOl ueg IIiBSI
asked that a delay of execution of the
courts order be granted to enable him
to decide whether TO make an appeal
to the United States court of appeals
or directly to the state supreme court.
Judge Adams granted the request.
Mr.. Pierce had little to say as he
left the courtroom with his attorney.
He spoke to several friends who
crowded to shake his hand, but made
no comment.
In his decision Judge Adams re-
viewed the Texas indictment and the
grounds upon which it was based and
cited a number OF supreme court ex-
pressions concerning the framing of
indictments.
When court reconvened Attorney
Priest, counsel for the petitioner, gave
notice formally that two appeals
would be taken from the decision of
Judge Adams, one to the United
States circuit court of appeals and one
to the United States supreme court.
The court then admitted Pierce to
bond in the sum OF $40, 600.

SOUTHERN AUTO co.
 PURCHASES GARAGE
The New Owners Of the Garage Of w. p. Richardson Making Plans for Inn provements.

The Southwestern Auto company yesterday filed articles of incorpora- tion in the office of the county re- corder and have taken over the busi- ness of w. r. Richardson. including about 10 automobiles. fixtures and machinery and expects to improve and further equip garage ip this city. The incorporators are Martin Mohr dieck. w. II. Patrick and J. w. Ford and the capital stock is s25.0O0.
 MT. Patrick came here a few months ago from Arkansas where he is eXten- sively engaged in the lumber business He is very well pleased with the coun try, has purchased a residence on Mon roe street and expects to make the city his home in the future. Relative to the plans of the company he said yesterday that they had not yet been formulated in detail but they expect to conduct the repair shop as formerly with the same manager in charge and put in new supplies and parts for machines. It is probable that a new garage and carriage shop will be built in the near future as the business de- mands.
 MT. Ford has been employed as a machinist for the Southern Pacific company and is a very competent man in that line. He was formerly with the same company at Tucson. Mir. Mohrdieck has been associated with MT. Richardson part of the time and now expects to devote his entire at tention to the garage. Mir Richardson retires because he says he cannot at terd to two businesses at once. The garage and the law business was more than one man could look after and he did not wish to sacrifice his profession though he did find the automobile business fascinating. He has had the garage for one year and made a sue cess of the venture.
 The new company believes that there is a great future in the city for automobile business Phoenix is fortunate in having climate where machines may be run the year round, and roads level and always in condi ton to make travel a pleasure.

 IN THE METAL BUSINESS
The Strength Of Railroad Stocks Med
 flied the Situation Somewhat.

New York. Sept. 12.-The irregular ity of the stock market continued in evidence today with distinctions clear ly marked between an upward tend ency in railroad stocks and a decided depression of copper stocks with a diminishing sympathetic feeling. most marked in other metal stocks but per ceptible also in other industrials. There was more aggressive strength in railroad stocks while the develop ment of an acute weakness at times in cOppers pulled the rest of the list down with them. The copper demand was admitted to be so far paralyZed that hardly a pound of metal was changing hands at any price. When an effective demand might be devel- oped was acknowledged to be still problematical. United States Steel showed clearly enough the condition of the copper trade. arousing anxiety over the iron and steel trade.

Ii. l. Latham returned yesterday from an extensive trip through the east covering a period of about a month. devoted primarily to business but having a good deal of pleasure incidental thereto. He did not go on any specific business transaction but his purpose was to familiarize himself with conditions in the east and the country over. disseminating as he travelled. among all who were interest ed. such information as he could re- garding the Salt River valley. His trip was in more ways than one a very successful one. He went from here to Denver and thence to omaha, Chicago. and through that portion of Ohio and Indiana between Fort Wayne and To- lodo. stopping in the little towns along the way. From Toledo he went to Philadelphia. Atlantic City and other coast points thence to Buffalo, Mag ara. Cleveland. Toledo, ond another visit to some of the small Ohio towns, then to Chicago and here.

A GLENDALE FARMER
 HAS THE FIGURES
From 60 Acres H. B. Lehman Realizes Profit O. s2100.

H. B. Lehman one of the substantial farmers of Glendale was in the city yesterday and added his experience to the weight of testimony in favor of the Salt River valley as the best place in which to get good return on the investment.
 Mir. Lehman has a ranch of 60 acres near Glendale mostly in alfalfa which he devotes to chickens and cows. The land he pastures and sells the milk to the creamery. He has at present fif- teen cows and from this source in the past year he has derived a net profit of more than S13 per month or for the twelve months q total of $9O0. The cows therefore have each averaged him about g. each per month and s60 apiece for the year.
 Besides this MT. Lehman has on his ranch 1000 hens. He does not sell chickens as a source of revenue but receives all his returns from the sale of eggs. The past year his sales have amounted to $500 and a net profit he estimates at $500 from this source alone. His sixty acres he therefore figures has brought him a net profit of s2100 In this estimate is not in cluded the supplies used for family consumption, which will amount to a net saving of several hundred dollars during the year. He has had what eggs. butter. milk, cream, garden truck and other necessities were need cd at the same time at a small cost.
 These results have been obtained under not the most favorable condi- tions-conditions which will be greatly improved as soon as the dam is com pleted and the ranchers get all the water they need. At these figures however his net profit not including what has been consumed by the fam fly is a return of 10 per cent on an investment of $21 .000. Mir. Lehman says that he considers his land worth better than $500 per acre when figured on a basis of the returns from the soil. Needless to say the ranch did not cost anything like those figures, hence MT. Lehman is making vastly better than 10 per cent on his original purchase price. He says that he has kept an accurate account of what he has done and has the figures to show for themselves. He makes no large claims and the results are what any farmer can obtain by proper manage ment and attention to business. When the dam is finished Mir. Lehman ex- Dects tO be making so much money that he won't know how to spend it unless it be by a trip around the world in his own private airship.

look on the dark side of things and predict calamity. Nevertheless Mir. Latham believes that the next year will be more prosperous than any oth- CT, generally speaking. the country over. His visit to the various eastern cities was a most enjoyable one and for the most part everybody is busy and confident respecting the future.
 Concerning his visit to ohio and In diana he is not only pleased but elat- ed. He says that all that is necessary is to tell the truth and thus win the confidence of the people. The naked truth is iiattering enough for all pur- poses and breeds a prosperity that is permanent His visit and personal ac- quaintance in ohio and Indiana will undoubtedly lead to the settling of a large colony of the German people here eventually. MT. Latham is not posing as philanthropist and expects to get some business as the result of this visit. He told the people so but told them to come to Arizona first. look it over and talk business after ward.
 The time has arrived in this valley when colOnizing must be looked after. The lands must be cut up into smaller holdings. and there is room here for hundreds of families more. Every real estate agent and for that matter men in other lines. could add much to the general prosperity of the valley by sim liar undertakings. Those who have an acquaintance in the east should util- ize 1t in this way and by united coop eration. the tide of immigration will surely set in this direction and that at an early day.

whom they have confidence. he will be
 ready to talk bushes to them. His
 visit then was social and entirely in a
 missionary spirit but was not intended as an occasion for selling pigs in
 pokes. For MT. Kleck it was a visit
 to the old home though naturally in quiries about Arizona were the chief topics of conversation. Mr. Kleck seems 10 know almost everybody in that part of the two states and seems to be popular in all the German set dement's thereaboat and frecosniZad as a conservative business man. They chanced to stop in the little town of Grabill. Indiana simultaneously with the holding of a convention Of the Mission church to which many of the Germans belong. It gave them. and particularly Mir. Kleck. an opportunity tO meet a large number of his old friends. They also stopped in New Haven and Woodburn, Indiana. and Archibald. Burn. Bluffton. Slyker and other ohio towns. after which Mir. Latham continued his visit to Phila- Gelph.a and the other eastern cities named. agreeing to stop again on his way west.
 When he returned to New Haven. Indiana. fourteen miles from Fort Wayne. he found that his old friend Sapp had been doing things. For months he had been preparing to come to Arizona with his most inter esting wife and family of eleven chil- iren. There is no better time to men ton that this is quite a celebrated family in that part of the country as every member of it except the baby which is yet too small. is an accom- plished performer on some musical instrument, and the Sapp family or chestra band is in great demand thereabout for social and public func- tions. A picture of this family. secur- ed of NIT. Latham is shown in connec- tiUn with this article.
 MT. Sapp having learned about the date NIT. Latham would be in New Haven again. had circulated some in the community. announc-
