der Denied by Sanford.
Captain Cassius NJ. Sanford, only
son of the late John Sanford of Gov
ington, KY, who was referred to in
the affidavit of Mrs. Lulu Williams
Clark in Sundays newspapers as
John Sanford and as having been
present in the statehou5e at Frank
fort when Governor Goebel of Ken
tucky was killed, has issued posi-
tive denial of every one of the state
ments. Captain Sanford, who is now
living in New York, after residence
of eight years in China and the Phil
ippines, said:
Every one Of the statements Of
Mrs. Clark is absolutely false. /

trude King, to whom it is said | paid

LAST of the "PaImetto Brand.'

A Columbia dispatch says: The
state of South Carolina is finally Out
of the liquor business.
On the first OF last February there
was in the warehouse in this city
about 100000 worth of liquors be-
longing to the state. When at that
time the legislature determined TO
abolish the system, commission was
created to close up the business, and
the last has just been sold. So, after
fourteen wears one month and fifteen
davs. the Palmetto brand is known
no more.
This was the first experiment OF
.povernment ownership" of the liquor
privilege in South Carolina, and the
fruits have been such that it is likely
TO be the last for many a year. Nel'
ther municipality nor state is likely
to embark upon that sea while mem
orv Of the state dispensary lives as
terrible warning" Advocates OF the
system promised that the dispensary
nrofts would eliminate state taxes
That was an unrealized dream. The
rhing got into politics and stayed
there; and there corruption was SO
appalling that the strenuous personal
efforts of Senator Tillman could not
stem the tide Of revolt.

sued an order for an injunction WHICH
absolutely ties up Minnesotas COM
modify rate law pending final de-
cision in the case or until the lower
courts decision is overruled on ap-
peal by the state.
The order is sweeping in its terms,
taking in not only the defendants at
bar, including the attorney general
and shippers who were made parties
to the actions, but all other persons
as well.
This means that, even though the
county attorneys throughout the state,
whose duty it is to institute and
prosecute criminal actions under the
law, were not made parties defendant
in the suits instituted by the railroads
through their stockholders, yet the
county attorneys and everybody else
are warned to keep their hands on
the railroads while Judge Lochren's
order is in effect.
Not only is everybody enjoined
from taking of instituting or lcaus-
ing or advising to be Instituted any
action, suit, step or proceeding for,
the violation of said act, but any
body and everybody is enjoined from
demanding that any of the rates con-
tanned in the act be given them"
The order issued Monday relates to
the Northern Pacific case. Similar
orders will be drawn in the other
eight cases, and injdnctions will be
served in pursuance with the orders
1t Is reported that the state of
fcials are planning to violate the.
Injunction in such manner that
habeas corpus proceedings will have
to be instituted in which event the
case will at once be appealed to the.
United States supreme court, and the
whole matter determined there in
stead of going through the usual
routine, lasting probably three years.

Another Chance for Mrs. Blair.


Mrs. Ethel w. Blair, convicted Of
manslaughter en- the charge Of killing
her husband, will get another chance
to prove her innocence. Before the
adjournment of court at Columbia,
Judge Johnstone announced that he
would grant the new trial, basing his
action on discovered after-evidence.
When Mrs. Blair realizing the sig
nihcance of the judges words she
swooned and was carried from the
court room to the judges room where
a physician was summoned and she
was revived.
While the penalty, under the law,
is from two to thirty years, Mrs. Blair
will not go to the penitentiary any
time soon, if at all.
The strongest testimony against
Mrs. Blair is the dying declaration
of her husband, made to the physi-
clan, that his wife had shot him
while they were quarrellng about
Conductor Arms.

MARKETING WESTERN FRUIT.
Shipments Directed by Wire to Point

of Greatest Demand.
Until 1893 California fruits were
sold through commission merchants,
to whom the individual growers con-
signed their entire crop. The ex-
pense for transportation and the keen
competition, as we'll as the immense
outlay for commissions, resulted in a
number of the large growers of Cali
fornia organizing the Southern Cali
fornia Fruit Growers Exchange.
Since 1898 this has been reorgan-
lied several times, but it is still in
existence under the title of the Cali
fornia Fruit Exchange. 1t is cooper
ative and has only a nominal capital
stock According to Moody's Maga-
zine, it performs every duty for the
growers belonging to it from the
time they bring their harvest to the
packing house until they get their
crop money.
1t takes complete control, grading,
packing, stripping, finding buyers
and selling, so that its members do
nothing but the agricultural part. It's
representatives throughout the dis
tricts receive and receipt for the
wagon loads, and the horticulturist
goes home to attend to his orchards
and wait for his check. The chief
competitor of the California Exchange
is California Citrus Union.
BY the present method of market
ing fruit daily wire reports on the
condition and whereabouts of every
shipment are sent to Los Angeles.
Like train dispatcher the manager
at headquarters guides every car
from the side tracks in the orchards
over the branch lines and the trunk
lines. He has the power to- divert
shipments into the most available
markets.
Hundreds of cars leave California
daily with only general destination,
and these cars must be sent to the
point of greatest demand. If through
his wire reports the, manager finds
that New York is receiving too much
fruit, that there is danger of break
in the price, he diverts part of the
New York shipment 20 Philadelphia
or Baltimore or Pittsburg.
He must see to it that every dis
trict has enough fruit, but not too
much. He must keep the market
even. He must get the top prices
and yet sell all his fruit. He must
figure against changes in the wealth
er in each district and againct compe-
tition from Florida, Europe and other
California shippers.

Social Clubs on Anxious Bench.

The blind tigers and social clubs
in Charleston are much exercised
about the next steps to be taken by
the state and municipal authorities
in the stricter enforcement of the dis
pensary law. Inspector West has
been in that city for several days,
and it is thought that his visit has
connection with some move against
the many social clubs, some of which
are, in fact, regular bar rooms or blind
tigers, doing business in the name of
a social organization. The increased
activity in the enforcement of the
law is worrying the blind tigers and
those in sympathy with the violation
of the dispensary act.

A SUGGESTED CHANGE OF TIME

A communication was received at the office of the board of supervisors yesterday from Assistant General Manager Drake of the :. F. r. X r. stating that il had been understood that a move was on foot to simplify the system of computing time in Phoenix by merging the three systems into one. MT. Drake points to the fact that Phoenix is east of the meri- dian of standard time extending as far north as Salt Lake and on which time the trains of the Santa Fe sys- tenn are run. MT. Drake believes that such change as he suggests will be a convenience to large majority of the people of Phoenix as well as to the railroads of the north. The com will be lad before the board at its earliest meeting.

 THE GLOBE SERlES-The Phoe- nix Athletics baseball team is pulling itself together for the Globe tourna- ment on the Fourth of July and will doubtless be much stronger than last Sunday. when the lineup was the best the team ever had. Professor Aver of Tempe has signed as pitcher for the team and as alternates when needed there will be Prof Scott and Del gado Scott has not been classed here tofore as a particularly good pitcher for he has not worked in that posi- ton a great deal. However. he did on one occasion win d game off Aver. and has the distinction of being the only man in the valley who ever did win a game against Aver. They are now lined up together and ought to make a strong combination. Lewis. who has been playing third base. has resigned from the team. being pretty well worked down.
