sANrA ROSA PROBE.

The Mexican government is taking lively interest in the recent Santa Rosa mine disaster. Mencelas Espi- noa, the judge of the first instance for Sonora, and his private secretary ar rived in Douglas yesterday on their way to the scene of the explosion. Su- perintendent T. H. Collin came up yesterday for theday and says that while no specially startling discoveries have yet been made, the officers are at work on the case with unabated zeal. He says that every Mexican in the camp is under close surveillance. Their actions are being closely watch ed and their character studied. An elimination of those who have been determined not guilty is now going on that they may study the strangers and nor suspicious cases more closely. Special officers have been employed in the case and it is believed that within a short time the eonspirators will be apprebended.-Douglas Dis patch.

'PARALYzED" TONGUE
 WOULDN'T KEEP STILL
Booze LooSened It and Charity Grafter Was Soon In the
 MeSheS,
(Prescott Journal MinerJ

"A youth to fortune and to fame unknown" These words on a card, in his coat pocket, told the police who Frank Stevens really was, but before his discovery" he had a great tune working the charitably inclined peo- pie doing business on "The Row."
 When Stevens "belw in" he had his arm in sing, distorted out or shape; parayzed, according to the note ne passed around. He was also dumb. He dispayed a letter, sup posed to have been signed by a Dr. Cooper, of Iowa, stating he was paralytic. Attached to the letter was a petition for charity. Alter securing the signatures of two prominent busi- ness men, Stevens had an easy time the remainder of the day, picking up 25 and 50 cent pieces:. His apparent suffering from the paralyZed arm and his seemingly pitifuI, but intellectual attempts to talk, aroused much sym pathy for him and the coins rolled in to his capacious pocket, until, in an evil moment, he took to the flowing bowl After a few drinks Stevens dis covered that the rare atmosphere and rarer booze oT Prescott had worKed a wonderful cure, and that he could talk. Walking into a cafe, he engaged in an altercation with the chef, and in the excitement of the moment so far forgot his paralyzed arm that he jerked it out of the sling and utilized it in ''peeling" off his coat, pi epEr- atory to engaging the chef in a fistic encounter,
 At this inopportune moment the police arrived and Stevens was carted to the city jail and later brought be- lore the city recorder, where, seem ingly not at all delighted over his miraculous cures, he listened in mo- rose silence until sentenced to serve sixty days at hard labor, when he again recovered his powers of speech and pleaded strongly for ''fioater," !" but the judge was not in lenient mood and the smooth charity grafter will have to serve out his time.

 recent arrival in Douglas is Will liam H.

Recently Mir. Hands health gave way and Brown brothers prompt ly ordered him to Arizona to recup- crate
 Mir. Hands was seen by a reporter of the International-Americ last evening, and, asked about the finan- cial conditions existing in New York, he said: When l left a week ago matters were beginning to readjust themselves towards the normal con ditions. The panic was caused by ab- normal and previously unheard of conditions. These had long been rec ognized by conservative banks with the result that such banks had been preparing for the expected to happen and were ready when the crash cid come It was not the conservative banks that went to the wall but those that were dickering in high finance It will, of course, take time for mat ters to regain a normal condition but progress is making in the right direc- tion
 Tn the case of the panic of '93 it was the result of a period of two or three years steady depression, while last year it came with a crash. But it seems to me that the condition last year was more serious. You will re member that in 1893 we did not use clearing house certificates, and no banks entirely suspended currency payment, though some used cashiers checks in part, while this year cash was at premium and the clearing house certificates made their appear ance.
 Another unheard of thing in the financial history of the country was the abandonment of marginal trading on the floor of the stock exchange; :; this was occasioned by the board of governors of the exchange who passed a temporary rule against it. Of course some of the brokerage houses raised the money to take up the stock out right and carry it for their customers, but margin trading was at an end. The result was shown at once in the

I be lieye that the troubles are over and that business will gradually readjust itself to meet the conditions which exist, but affairs did bear a most ser. l ious aspect last year"

 ODD FELLOWS HOME
Some Place In Ariona Will Probably Be Decided Upon
 in April

PHOENIX, Feb. 14.-The. Grand Lodge of the Odd Fellows will hold its next annual meeting ia Phoenix sometime in the month of Aprl, when that body will very likely decide upon the location of the home which they propose to erect for the care of old people and for the orphans left in their care by their deceased mem bers. A number oE propositions have been submitted to the committee hay ing this matter in hand, from various places in the territory some offering to donate sites and some offering 70 sell sites.
 It is proposed to make this home a permanent institution for good and a credit to any section of the territory where it might be located. The Odd Fellows have had this matter in COR temptation for a number of years, dur ing which time they have been steadily accommodating funds for the purpose until they have now several thousands of dollars invested in various securities which, when a site has been selected, will be turned into cash and expended in the erection of buildings, furnish- ings, etc.
 Geo. A Mintz of this city is in charge of this proposition for Maricopa county and any person interested in tiic movement can correspond with him regarding, submit any proposition he might desire to make this commit tee, and secure any information de- sired.
