frederick Remington at Fl Paso & Southwestern Re- sort to Make Sketches of Beautiful Scenery

FL. PASO, April 9.-FredeTick Rem ington, artist, author and sculptor, formerly COW boy and stockman on a ranch in the west and well known all over the country as a painter of west ern outdoor scenes, and Henry Smith, one of New York's most promi- nent attorneys and politicians. friend of MT. Remington, arrived in Fl Paso from New York Saturday evening and registered at the St. Regis. They remained in the city until 2:45 o'clock this afternoon when they left over the Fl Paso & Cloud croft. accompanied by Garnett King, general agent of the Southewestern.
 Messrs. Remington and Smith will remain at Cloudcroft several days dur ing which time the famous painter will sketch. This will be MT. Rem ington's first visit to CloudcToft, and as he has heard so much favorable comment on the beauty of that part of the country. he hopes to secure a number of sketches which will be pleasing to the public when they have been painted.
 "My, this town of Fl Paso is run ming away in the prosperity race" said MT. Remington at the St. Regis. T am most agreeably surprised; just to think that what was a few years ago nothing but an adobe village is now a metropolitan city. It is diffi- cult to understand how such transfor- nation was brought about This is my first visit to Fl Paso and the CLoudcroft country. I am delighted with Fl Paso and when return from Cloudcroft expect to spend quite a bit of time here. am not running on any schedule and of course cannot tell how long I will remain in the west.
 q have just finished a hard winter and thonught I would come out to the favorite part Of the country to thaw out and recuperate."
 MT. smith spoke in similar vein re- garding Fl Paso.
 The visitors enjoyed an automobile ride over the city this morning. ...

MAN IS SCALPED BY HANDCAR AT
 FLAGSTAFF
Foreman of Santa Fe Section Gang Falls From Car and Wheels Run Over His Head, Tearing Off Scalp.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., April g. the skull by a few slender threads of flesh. John Campfeld survived the journey of thirty hours from Flag staff, Ariz., and was taken to the local Santa Fe hospital for treatment.
 Campfield was foreman of the sec tion gang working out of Flagstaff on the santa Fe system, and was going to work yesterday morning, when the hand car on which he and his men rode, gave lurch. The car was GOV cred with snow, and Campfield lost his footing. and fell on the track, directly in front of the speeding car. Two of the wheels passed over the top of his head, peeling the scalp from the fore head, back of the ears. to the back of the head. The aspect the injured man presented as he was lifted from baggage car on train No. ? was so ghastly that strong men turned their heads away.
 At the hospital, however, Camp fields injuries were reported not nee essarily serious but severe and pain ful. Dr. Cutter, the physician in charge, said that the scalp had been patched up and that if all went well with the patient he would not los c his hair. He shows a strong constitg- ton and will likely recove" from tEe injury. Campfeld is said to be one of the best section men in he employ of the Santa Fe in Arizona.

JAPS STILL COMING
 ID CU|DAO JUAREz
Where They Hope to Slip Over Line to the United
 States,

FL PASO, Tex, April S.-Not a sin . us Japanese has applied for admis-
 3 )n into the United States at the lc gal port since a week ago, when the new exclusion ruling went into effect. The word has gone out to all of them that the bars have been put up and although they continue to arrive in Juarez by the dozen. they are not ap- plying for admission.
 Incoming passengers on the Mexi- can Central state that the Juarez col. Ony of Japanese have sent out mes :sengers down the line telling the in- coming Japs that the exclusion act is now in effect, and that they cannot hope to get across until things are modified. They are advised not to come to JuareZ now, but to obtain work wherever they are until things change.
 It is expected that many of them will attempt to smuggle across, now now that they are excluded, and a few have already been captured, who attempted it. Inspector J. B. Bryan leaves this afternoon for San Francis co with the first Japanese who have been ordered deported under the new law. He smuggled himself in and was captured at Las Cruces.
 With the coming of warmer weath- CT the Mexican laborers swarm across the border in eyer-increasing num- bers. Over 265 were admitted yes terday and the station was full of them this morning. They universally state that they are only going into the United States to work for from four to six months. All are asked if it is their intention to remain in the United States and take out naturali- Zation papers. and about one in a hun. dred replies in the affirmative. Most of them know where they are going to work, and they reply to the inspect or's question, los Angeles, San Fran cismo, Kansas City, Globe or for the Santa Fe.'
 Occasionally there are a few re- turning to their Mexican homes. Yes teTday one passed through from Kan sas City, where he had spent several months. He was thoroughly in love with the place and said as soon as he took his money to his family ne would return Asked as to the most re- markable thing about Kansas City and what impressed him most, he re- piled, Why, all the little cnI.Urcu, only so high,'' indicating about knee high with his hand, speak English" He was astonished that they could learn it so soon.
 One Of the most degraded looking specimens of humanity ever offering himself for admission applied this morning. He was dirty, even filthy, and his clothes were in tatters. He looked like Japanese, but could only speak few words of their language He was held up at the bridge and after many signs and af few words explaining that he was from Korea, ne vas turned back to Mexico.

TERRITORIAL PRESS OPINION

If the city council has decided that there must be no gambling of any kind in Globe, as evidenced by the stopping of all card playing in saloons, they should see to it that there Is no playing for money in secret. It is in- evitable that poker rooms will spring up in obscure places and if these are to be allowed to run, it would have been much better to permit the con tinuance of card playing in saloons. It's in the quiet, obscure places that the sucker will be parted from his money, not in the saloons where they play, as 6 rule, openly and above board. It is a certainty that there will be sercet gambling of some form or other and it is up to the city off cials to see that it is eradicated en- tirely, now that they have taken the first step.-Globe Belt.

G|LA VALLEY EDITOR
 TELLS OF PROSPERITY

Sam E. Roberts, editor and proprie' tor of the Stafford Journal, has been in Douglas for several days, being one of the delegation sent from Stafford to attend the Baptist convention here which closed yesterday. The delega- ton from Stafford consisted of Rev. c. WardIaw, Mir. Roberts and W. R. Roads. Mir. Roberts remained in the city today and will leave this aftes noon for home.
 The Gila valley has been more prosperous during the past year than ever before" said Mir. Roberts today. Tt is one of the very best agricultural valleys in the territory and the crops produced last year were abncrmally large because of the abundant supply of water which continued through the entire crop seasons. Not only were the crops enormous, but the prices re- ceived for them were corespondingly high. The new alfalfa a year ago sold for s7 per ton loaded on the cars, but soon the price advanced to s10 ani now it is selling for s14; about all the old hay has been marketed still there are some who have held ths greater part Of their crop for fancy prices which always come to the valley fin the spring before the new crop is ready for the market.
 During the last year the Giia Val ley, Globe and Northen railway has been greatly improved. In many places the line was changed and the entire grade was practically made new and now there Is not better equipped line in the territory.
 "In the mining districts tributary to the Gila valley there has been in creased activity during the past year, caused probably by the increase of copper prices. This is especially true of the Lone Star district, lying north of Stafford, where there are now two or three good companies carrying on ex- tensive development work. The San Juan company has a concentrating mill in operation and I was informed few days before leaving home that shipment of one hundred tons of con centrates were ready to be sent to the Old Dominion smelter in Globe.
 'sThe mining camps. including Cliff ton, Morenci and Globe, take all the vegetables and fruit produced in the Gila valley and local mills turn all the grain into flour. Much of the alfalfa nay raised in that valley finds markets here. at Bisbee and Cananea." Speaking of Douglas MT. Roberts stated that he was not prepared to see such a modern and substantial city here. although he has had newspaper acquaintance with the city since fl
 was started six years ago.

WAS MURDERED AND NOT \
 SUICIDE
Albert Carkeet and Clinton Ra-
 pier Are Under Arrest at Globe Charged with Killing
 George Welch,

George welch, the young miner who was thought to have accidentally killed himself at the camp of the Calumet and Globe Development company on Lower Pinto creek last Tuesday af- tsrnoon, was murdered, according to the Globe Belt This startling infor- matios was divulges at the sheriff's office almost twenty-four hours after two men had been arrested on suspi- cion of having been implicated in the alleged murder.
 When Judge I-inson Thomas. act ing as coroner, visited the scene of the tragedy last Wednesday and impaneled a jury to investigate the death of Welch there were several suspicious circumstances which seemed to war rant further investigation. However, the coroner's jury agreed on verdict that Weich's death occurred by his own hand-the result of an accidental discharge of revolver, which he was known to have fired earlier on the day of his death.
 Decide on Post Mortem.
 An examination of the body showed that the bullet which caused death en- tered Welch's right jaw, fracturing that member, and apparently passing upward through his brain, striking the inside of the skull and rebounding and emerging from the right side of the skull. Dr. Parker, the Pinto creek physician, testified that this was un- doubtedly the case. Owing to the sus- picious circumstances. however, which came to the notice of the coroner, it was thought best to hold post nor tenn examination after the body was brought to Globe, and this was per formed Thursday by Dr. Wales, the county physician
 Two Bullets Instead of One.
 The result of the post mortem was sensational in the extreme, as it con. clusively established the fact that Welch had been been shot twice, and that the hole in the right side of his skull was caused by the entrance of another bullet and not the exit of the same bullet that entered the jaw. The latter bullet was found imbedded in the jaw of the dead man and it had passed through the roof of the mouth. The second bullet entered the right side of the head and had struck on the other side of the skull, imebdding itself. but the impact with the inside of the skull chipping piece from the outside
 Dr. Wales after a thorough exami- nation gave it out that either wound would have resulted in instant uncon- sciousness and that one. if not both, would have been almost instantly ia tai.
 Last Seen With WeIch.
 At the inquest it developed that Clinton Rapier, who had bunked in the same tent with Welch and whose re- Yolver caused the latter's death. and Albert Carkeet, who had bunked in an adjoining tent, were the last men who were known to have been with Welch before the tragedy. They were also the first men to discover the body af- ter the shooting. When the case was placed in the hands of Sheriff Thomp- son he immediately had warrants is sued for the arrest of Rapier and Car keet on the charge of murder.
 Both of the men came in from the camp Thursday and Rapier was arrest

MEXICANS FIGHT AND ONE IS
 DEAD
Ramon Morales Shot and Stabbed to Death in Fl Paso. Police Looking for Mexican Named lose Torres.

FL PASO, April 9.-In a fight with a man supposed to have been Jose Torres, late Saturday afternoon, Ra- mon Morales, 3 Mexican, about 39 years old, was shot and stabbed to death. Torres, the alleged slayer of Morales made his escape and the po- lice are now in search of him.

F. Mitchell wal notified.
 Arriving at the scene they founj that Morales had been shot througl the chest on the right side. Seyera. ugly wounds had been inflicted with a butcher knife, which was found, to- gether with an unopened pocket knife and two sombreros lying a short dis tance from the body of the dead man
 The authorities up to this time have found but one man who saw the fight A. B. Remick, who lives a quarter of a mile from the scene of the fight, said he saw the men engage in battle, and saw one of them fall to the ground. The other he saw drop some thing in his pocket and start away from the scene Remick after GOV ering the distance between his house and the scene of the duel, found Mo rales was dead and that his slayer had left a trail of blood.
 The authorities have also learned that when Remick first say the fight he intended getting his gun, and take a part in the capture, but that mem bers of his family interfered, and Torres or whoever the slayer of Mo rales may have been, made good his escape
 Nicoles Morales, who claims to be a brother of the dead man, identified one of the sombreros as belonging to Jose Torres. He was before justice Mitchell this morning and the acting coroner ordered that Morales be held together with the mother of the dead man, and his cousin, until further in- vestigation of the case.
 It is learned by the police that Morales and Torres had been good friends at one time, but that after dispute over child they decided to fight it out, and the death of Morales was the result.

ed in the afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Jack Knighton. Carkeet was appre- hended later in the evening by Sher- if Thompson. Both men were immedi- ately locked up in the county jail and the officers, aided by District Attorney Stoneman, made a still hunt for evil dence. The sheriff left yesterday noon for Lower Pinto and had not returned late last night. It is believed that when he returns he will have evidence which will either convict or free the suspects at once
 Suspects We'll Known Here.
 Both of the men under suspicion of having a part in the murder of the young miner are well known in Globe and hitherto have borne excellent rep utations, neither having ever been in serious trouble. CarlIeet came to Globe about eight years ago and has resided here continuously since then with the exception of a year or two which he spent in Bisbee, where he was employed as a shift boss at the Lowell shaft of the Copper Queen com pany. His father was foreman of that mine and is now employed at the Old Dominion mine in Globe. He is 27 years of age. Rapier is a carpenter and 2S years old. He has worked in and around Globe for a number of years and has always been known as a steady and reliable workman. He is a brother of Phil Rapier. who recently attained notoriety by defrauding the government by forging checks sent to tue reclamation works at Roosevelt. The latter is now serving seven-yeaT term in Yuma, having been convicted in Cochise county

ANOTHER BIG COPPER
COMBINE BEING FORMED

BOSTON, June 30.-A big copper
combine is just being shaped up by
eastern interests, who have formed
the Consolidated Copper company,
under Delaware laws, with $4,000
900 capital, in S. shares, according
to the Inter Mountain Republican.
The real interests behind the COM
pany are not divulged in the incor-
poration papers, but it is understood
that they include James Phillips, Jr.,
William B. Thompson of the Hayden
e Stone company, Boston; w. B.
Smith of the Nevada Consolidated,
and the Guggenheims
1t is also understood that this new
concern will eventually be the
holding company for the Nevada
Consolidated, Cumberland Ely, Utah
Copper company, Ely Mines company
and other properties in which the
above are interested.
The Ely Mines company will be
the first to be absorbed, its stock be-
ing exchanged on the basis of three
Consolidated shares for one Ely
share. The others will be taken over
later.
1t is figured that the above named
companies will have by 1909 over
$50, 100000 pounds of copper pro-
duced. with smelter capacity only
exceeded by the Washoe.

have interests in the camp, it is al
most safe to state that this shaft

it will cause a stampede without a

Rapid strides have been made at the
Knox lease during the past seven
days. While the production of high
grade shipping ore is maintained
without sorting. says the Salt Lake
Inter Mountain Republican, the main
shaft is dropping down rapidly, and
80 feet has been made since the start
from the 1OO-foot level was made. AS
was expected, the vein was cut on
the dip at 1875 feet, and the shaft is
now dropping down to the north OF
the vein; at the intersection of the
shaft with the vein, the ore was IN
splendid and regular form. with per-
feet walls; the shoot was fully IL
feet wide, and the values were some

the number ran in excess of $4,000

900 worth of bullion from the Null
holland and Thatcher leases on the
Daisy under the seat and gun In
each pocket Henry Bartlett of the
Round Mountain Nugget reached
town last night in his big Pope To
ledo. The bullion was the product
of the Sunnyside mill and was des-
tined for the mint at Carson.
This is only The first of many SIM

Sun reporter this morning. Both the
Mulholland lease and Capt. Thatch-

that the Sum; sIde company has de-
cided to increase its plant by the adj
dition of two Huntingdon mills, in
creasing the capacity to sixty tons a
day. The additional plant will he
in operation in about two months.
Questioned as to what was being
done in the way of placer mining at
Round Mountain, Mr.. Bartlett said
