 SIMPLIFYING PLANT
General Manager Finney Sells Interest, but Will not Leave Territory-Says that Smelling Trust Did Not Pur- chase His Interest.

- c. F. Finney, vice president and gen eral manager of the Arizona Smelling company, has disposed of his holdings in the shelter concern, and rendered his resignation. to take effect on February lst.
 Mir. Finney returned recently from New York, says the Prescott Journal Miner. When asked if the smelter trust representatives had secured any of his stock, he said:
 "You can authortatively state from me that the agents of the trust did not secure the stock or its control. l had an opportunity of disposing of my in terests at a good figure, and sold out. do not know who my successor will be in the management of the concern.
 Asked as to his plans for the future, Mr. Finney said ''I am not going to leave the territory for year or two yet, This is country of wonderful mineral possibilities and l, while l do not care to discuss my future plans, am free to admit that l have no inten- ton of leaving Arizona.
 Mr. Finney's advent into the terri tory in July, 1905, when the eonstruc- tion of the smelling plant at Humboldt was commenced, marked q new era in the development of the resources of not only Yavapai county, but northern Ari- zona as well. When he arrived the out put of the mines of Yavapai county, leaving the United Verde Copper com pany's mines, at Jerome, out of the question, amounted to about twenty tons of ore and concentrates day, and now, after a period of only eighteen months has elapsed, and nine months after the great plant was blown in, there is be ing delivered every twenty hours at Humboldt, shipments which amount to from 400 to 800 tons. With its present capacity the annual production is now estimated at $3,500,0O0 and in the next eighteen months, with it's capacity being increased as fast as furnaces and ma chinery can be delivered and installed, the annual output will amount to over 100000.

To secure this appearance the salt water product is placed in fresh water frequently in fresh water streams. This bleaches them, and owing to the fact that nowadays few fresh water streams are pure, that the oysters absorbs so much water that it appears plump and that it's digestive functions are retarded by the unnatural conditions, and bacilli in the water absorbed rapidly multiply, thus injecting the oyster.
 This infected food, often shipped long distances, becomes menace to the health of whole communities. This prsc- tiee of bleaching and fattening the oy- ster certainly should se discouraged by epieureans and customers in general What to Eat.

 The first officers opening remarks were in the nature of joke, Mr. Spice explained. The St. Andrew had hit a whale on the trip over, he explained further. Still further, it hit a whale on trip this way several months ago, and Mir. Spice opines that whales have a fondness for ships named after the saints. He told of other ships thus named that were everlastingly running down whales.

Engineer w. A. Parish, who came in last night from Roosevelt, states that Contractor o 'Rourke has commenced the construction of a cofferdam that is calculated will resist the onslaughts of the Salt river floods, says the Phoenix Democrat.

No Clue to Marvin Bow.

DOVER, Del, March THE search for
the missing four-year-old son of DIR. Hor-
ace n. Marvin, recently of Sioux City,
Iowa. who disappeared from his fathers
farm, near I<ittshammCck on Monuay, has
not resulted in the slightest clue that would
tend to solve the mystery. The father has
no idea of why the boy should have been
kidnapped if this has happened to him ex-
cept for ransom, he has no enemies
that he knows of.
The entire neighborhood has joined in the
search. Cove. Lea was in Dover this morn
ing, and said that the state would do every
thing possible toward running down any
clue that indicated kidnapping. The state
detective department has given it's entire
time to the case, and has called upon de-
partments in Philadelphia, Baltimore and
other cities to lend their aid. DR.. Marvin
went to Wilmington at the request of State
Detective James l.. Hawkins, and conferred
with that official and other detectives from
Philadelphia. new aid for the return of
the boy and arrest of his abductors will be
offered by the father, the county and the
state.

because of the feeling which grew out OF

The crowd in attendance during the trial
OF the case has been greater than any crowd

is a relative Of Circuit Judge Daniel A.

While ago as the guest of the judge, but he

Question of Cost.
An interesting question was raised this
morning In connection with the expense In.
CURED by the trial. Under the statutes OF
the state the costs of such a trial are as
sessed against the defendants in event OF
conviction but in case of an acquittal the
state pays the cost.
This case is on all fours with that of
J. Samuel McCue, former mayor of Char
lottesville who was convicted and hanged
last year. In that case the cost amounted
to about $4,000, while the expense of this
case will amount to something like &c. 900,
the bringing of the yenire from another
county being big item. 1t is stated that,
In addition, the trial will cost the Strother
brothers nearly $4,000.
There was not the usual crowd of spec
called to order by Judge Harrison at 1886
clock today. When all the seats had
been filled the sheriff locked the doors and
kept out a hundred more persons in
the cOiu, all dIX1OuS 10 get 1nCO lne court
room. Three minutes after the sheriff an
nounced that court was ready for business
Judge Harrison handed the jury the papers
in the case. including the instructions, the
two letters. one written by Philip Strother
to his brother James. telling him to come
here at once from WEIGH. w. Va. and the
other written by William Bywaters, tell
ing Miss Viola Strother of what she should
say to explain his presence in the hallway
near her room when he was discovered by
her younger brother. Counsel suggested
that the telegram which James Strother
received from his younger brother be also
included, and the request was granted.
When member of the jury had received
the papers the court instructed the twelve
men to retire to their room and deliberate
Mrs. James Strother, who has occupied
seat in the court room beside her husband
during the past week, was on hand this
morning. arriving with her husband Mrs.
George Fl. Williams. cousin of the de-
PENDANTS. was also in attendance. Philip
Strother, who was i'll two days ago was
in much better physical condition this
morning when he reached court.
Crowd is Disappointed.
When the bell in the tower of tile court
house tolled the hour of I o'clock last night
there was gathered at the doors of the
building crowd of men and boys. all OF
whom clamored for admission. Sheriff Pull
liam was on hand with several assistants
who had been sworn in for special duty.
Efforts were made to have the spectators
go into the building one at time. but when
the doors were opened grand rush was
made for the interior OF the building and
