with Instructions to present it to Sec
rotary of War Stanton. He arrived in
Washington the day the body of Abra-
ham Lincoln lay in state, and reported.
Teh secretary of war naturally was a
busy man at that time. He had al
ready learned of the particulars of the
battle and knew Corporal Connells
mission. He told him to return a few
days later and present the flag formal
ly. in the meantime giving him a short
furlough to go home on visit. The
young soldier did so and returned to
Washington a couple of weeks later
when his regiment had already reach
ed there nd he rejoined it. The flag
was then formally presented and Brig
adler General Warren keifer who was
in command OF the troops then assem-
bled, drew up the regiment and pre-
scented the bronze medal to the young
officer who had earned it. Though the
gold medal is a much better one and
its inscription means something. II is
doubtful il the captain will treasure
II any more highly than he does the
old bronze piece which itself figured
in the original presentation.

CARNIVAL OF CRIME
IN GRAHAM COUNTY
Three Homieides Within Week-Ths
Jail Filled With Offenders.

Solomonville. Ariz. oct. 25.-(Spec-
ial correspondence Of The Republican,
An epidemic Of crime seems to have
sprung up in Graham county recently,
which has filled the county Jail to suf-
fication and keeps the peace officers
continually on the jump. For the
most part. the disorder takes the
form of fighting. assaults and brutal
murder among the lower class of Mex
leans. Within ten days there have
been a half dozen sanguinary affairs
of that description. resulting in the
death of several persons.
one. of the latest of the affairs is a
murder at Stafford among the section
men employed b. the railroad. Timiteo
Barajas shot a companion named Do
mingo Gutierrez. fled and has not
been captured. The men belonged to
a large gang of poems recently from
one of the lower states of Mexico.

CAPTAIN CONNELl
GETS GOLD MEDAL
A Reward For Vaior in the Last Bat
tie Fought in the War Between the
States.

Captain T. Connell recently received
gold medal which he is justified in
pricing very highly. 1t was earned at
the risk of his life. in defense of the
best nation on earth, at the battle of
Sailors creek. the last and one OF the
fiercest battles of the civil war. The
medal is a gift of congress. to replace
an old bronze medal the captain has
had ever since the war. At the time
congress had authorized number of
medals to be given on occasion, to
soldiers worthy of special recognition.
but they were considered as merely
temporary in character being al alike

FINANCIAL CONDITION
OF ARIZONA BANKS
Statement by the Bank Comptroller
Makes a Fine Showing. For Home
Institutions.

The Republican herewith presents a
statement of the condition Of the ter
ritorial banks at the close Of business
Sept. 10. 1907, as furnished by Audi
tor John II. Page. bank comptroller.
This statement will be read with par
ticular interest for two reasons. One
is because Of the disturbed conditions
of the banks in the east and the other
is because of local conditions which
might have been expected to affect the
banks in certain parts of the territory
materially.
One such condition is the reduction
of forces in the mining camps due to
the slump in copper. 1t might be sup
posed there would be less business as
a result and probably fewer depositors.
and in any event smaller deposits In
other places, this valley for instance.
it might be expected that deposits in
the fall season would be pretty shy,

after the valley had taken that an
nual half million dollar contribution
to the coast and elsewhere.
But the figures reveal that notwith-
standing the copper depression and
the empty pockets with which the
summer tourists returned home, the
business of the banks is larger than
ever. The deposits for instance are in
round numbers s231.0OO more than on
June u. the date of the last former

Consul reports that great consterna-

fact that the supply Of raw meer-

is failing.
Practically all known deposits of

Eski-Schehir. in Asia Minor. and the
output there is very small Agents
OF American and English manufacture

output. and German manufacturers
can count no more supplies from that
source. IN tho last five months the
price Of the ~aw meerschaum has adj
vanced 80 per cent This is most

Of the mcerschaum bring a serious

amber is said to have considerably de-
creased during the past few years. and
