has been interviewing a number of the business men of this city in re aard to the proposition. and is very much pleased with the encourage ment which he has received.
 Equipment for the enterprise has been ordered fo- some time and most Of 1t is on the ground, while the buildings which will be necessary are nearly completed. Wilkey stated last night that he hoped to have the plant in operation at the end of ten days or two weeks.
 The dairy will be started with sixty milk cows, the number of which will be increased as the business in- ereases. Later on butter and cheese will be made. but for the present only milk win be sold. Bisbee is expected to be the principal market, and it is that the large consumers of this product will be glad to get their supply from point so near home.

MINER IN TROUBLE
 FOND OF NAMES
Jas, RitChie, alias w. J, Regah alias Joe QuinIan, Etc.,
 Charged With Fraud,

James Ritchfe, alias W. J. Began, alias W. J. Hagen, was arrested yes teTday afternoon on a charge of fraud. Ritchie, which is believed to be his correct name. is accused of having attempted to pass a fraudulent order at the Copper Queen store.
 Ritchie worked for a while at the Gardner shaft under the name of Hagen, and later worked at the Car under the name of Began. The em- pioyes of the Copper Queen store had been warned to look out for him, with the result that when he purchased a bill amounting to a little over $s yes terday afternoon and asked to have the goods charged to Frank Foley, he was placed under arrest
 It would seem that Ritchie was fond of names. A search through his effects showed a letter, apparently ad- dressed to him, from Wilcox, in which he was addressed as Joe Quin- Ian. A card showing his membership in the local order of the Western Fed eratioH of Miners, with his dues paid to date, in the name of James Ritchie. led the officers to believe that to be his correct name.
 Ritchie will be tried this morning at 10 o'clock in Justice Hogans court

 IN THE MARKETS HELPS PRICES
In the Long Run and Authorita- tive Sources Point to Sub- Stantial Betterment in the Copper Market.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-Speculation in stocks had a good deal of material available for the formation of cOnject- ure in events expected to occur today. These included the delivery of the speech of acceptance of a nominee for the presidency, the quarterly report of earnings of the Steel Corporation. There was injected into the situation also official intimation that the Inter state Commerce Commission would investigate the reason of increased freight where they might receive mo- tice in advance of complaints against the rates. Furthermore, there were conferences relating to the affairs of the Gould railroads.
 The result of these various factors was to stir up considerable degree of feverishness in the stock market which reflected fluctuation of prices. The declaration of the regular quart erly dividend on the Hartman Pa cifics in advance of the usual period and the announcement of the early de- parture of E. H. Hartman on an ex- tended vacation trip kept alive the supposition of urgency in the working out of the projected arrangements with the Goulds.
 After the appearance of Taft's speech of acceptance prices generally reached the highest point of the day. These were near the highest of the year in some cases, including steel. copper and mining, industrials and Pacific railroad stocks. Reports from authoritative sources pointed to Q betterment of health il the copper market.

MEX. TRIES ESCAPE
 FROM BULLPEN
Creased Body With VaSeIine, But Stuck in Wicker Food Hole and Had to Be Rescued by the Officers.

Sabino Cortez, a Douglas Mexican
 confined in the Bisbee branch county jail on a charge of petit larceny,
 made a slick effort to escape from prison about o'clock last night.
 Cortez was being taken from Doug las to Tombstone. He was put in
 the bull pen of the branch jail early
 in the evening while the officer in
 charge stopped of on business in Bis
 bee.
 About 9 o'clock Deputy Sheriff Win
 White had occasion to go to the jail.
 As he entered he was confronted with
 the wriggling naked body of a man half way through the little wicker door Of the bull pen where food is passed in to the prisoners.
 It was Cortez. He had evolved a brilliant plan of escape The other prisoners said, go to it old man ana more power to you if you can work it out. Cortez had in his pocket a good sized bottle of vaseHne. His plan of escape was to put the vase line to work and slip through the litle wicker door hole like an eel, to the corridor and freedom. Stripping from his waist up the Mexican ap- piled the vaseline liberally. When he had completed the job he was as slippery as some Republican editors who are kept busy squeezing out of tight places they get into boosting Bill Taft as the real and only friend of the working man. His head went through the wicker door all right. Then he damned a shoulder through. This served to lubricate the sides of the opening some and after a short struggle Cortez got the other shoulder out on the same side with his head. About this time the hole apparently began to shrink. but the desperate Mexican kept on clawing the air in front and kicking from the rear like a man swimming in the ambient. He slid through to his waist line, where the vaseline ran out and then found it impossible to either move further out or crawl back.
 The prisoners in the bull pen offer ed various suggestions and much de tailed advice, none of which appeared practical to Cortez. He looked ap- pealingly at Deputy Sheriff White when he entered the jail. The latter called some of the other officers and 1t took their combined efforts, some and considerable more of Cortez's body before the Shelter City Mex was back in the bull pen. And nightly relievee hOmbre he was. too. The officers at first could neither get CorteZ out into the corridor or back into the bull pen. They finally made lather of soap and this with what vaseline was left on the Mexican's body served to ease his retreat to captivity.

ISAAC G|LBO MEETS DEATH
 ON RAILROAD
Former BiSbee Man Laid Down on Southern Pacific Track at Fairbank and Life Was Crushed Out.

Isaac Gilbo, a blacksmith, formerly a resident of Bisbee and Lowell. who lefrS are several months ago to enter the ,kspital at Tombstone, and who was xiseharged from that institution about six weeks since, was accident ally killed N at Fairbanks on Sunday evening by the south bound passenger train on the Nogales road at point on the curve about a quarter of a mile from the depot. Gilbo had been working for the Boquillas Land & Cattle Company at the Moves ranch, about two miles above Fairbank. On Sunday be was around Fairbank and became somewhat under the influence of liquor. He started toward home, going down the railroad track and evidently thinking he had reached the siding that connects the F. P. & s. w. and the ''Burro road" laid down on the track with his head and shoulders across the rail Giibo had made a mistake and had taken the main line of the Seuthern Pacific for his lodging . 1ss N'15he train for Nogales came along just after dark and ran over the unfortunate man before the fireman could signal the engineer to stop the train. The body was horribly mangled the entire head being mashed, nothing being left but the scalp, while the body to the waist was cut into pieces.
 The body was picked up by the railroad crew and brought back into Fairbanks. The remains were buried yesterday by the citizens of that place. An effort is being made to locate rela- tives of Gilbo who reside in the east.
 GiIbo was a man of middle age, dark \complected and had short black mogstache. He will be remem- bered by a number of miners here, as he was employed in the mines here for some time last year.

HARTMAN DECISION.
1t VIII Not Make Much Difference to
the Commission.

Chicago, Dec. 16.-Franklin K Lane of
the interstate commerce commission. in
an interview here regarding the decision
of the United States supreme court in
the Hartman case limiting the authority
of the commission to compel answers to
certain questions said that in his opinfon
the decision would not result in any great
limitation of the powers of the commits
sion. He saw in the decision, however a
strong argument for governmental con-
troll over the capitalization of railway
companies in order to protect the peonIe's
money invested in railroads against the
possibilities of manipulation.
1t IS OF considerable moment to the
railroad world" said Commissioner Lane
whether a railroad can invest in the
stocks of other railroad companies. The
matter we were investigating was the use
to which Hartman put the money which
he raised by the sale of bonds of the
he raised 500. 900. which went largely
into the purchase of stocks of other rail-
roads, thereby imperilling the Union Pa
cif1c property.
serious one. similar to that of 1893, for in
stance, and the stock which had been
purchased with Union Pacific money had
fallen in the market, 1t might have
thrown the Union Pacific into the hands
of a receiver. or at least might have made
necessary a large increase in freight rates
in order to meet the interest on the
bonded debt of the road
THE point which the supreme court
makes is that this investigation did not
deal directly with the question of rates
which could be regulated by our commits
sion. But if events had turned out less

riman might easily have developed a sit
tion of rates one of most immediate i'm
portance to the Union Pacific

NOT BACKING DOWN.
Select Committee of the House Will
'Do Its Duty

Washington, Dec. 16.-That the select
committee of the house appointed to
recommend action by the house in re-
gard to the remarks of the president in
his annual message on the attitude of
congress and toward the secret service
is changing its attitude toward the pres
ident has been denied by several mem
bers of the committee. One member
stated that the committee had not re-
Tented and that at intended to do its
duty of the public and the country.
He said that the recent utterances
supposed to emanate from the White
House charging congress with lack Of
courage had tended to make the COM
mittee more determined than ever.
Chairman Perkins stated after the
meeting of the committee that another
meeting would be held tomorrow and
said he believed the committee would
agree before adjournment on Saturday
for the HOLIDAYS.

URGES POSTAL BANKS.
Senator Carter Will Try to Make the
Bill Satisfactory.

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Car
ter spoke in support of the pos
tai savings bank bill. After referring
to the various endorsements by
political conventions and other or
ganizations of the people of the pos
tai savings banks, Mr.. Carter said
that while there are only 1,452 saw
ings banks. there are more than 61,-
600 postofices, 10000 of which are
money order Offices" He declared
that postal savings banks are in
operation in practically all civilized
countries of the world except the
United States. He proposed, he said,
to offer amendments to the bill re-
ducing from $1,000 to $500 the
amount any person may deposit in
postal banks with interest and from
5000 to S1Oo the amount that may be
deposited in any one month and also
to strike out the provision allowing
any person to deposit money as
trustee. These amendments, he said,
would remove three objections that
have been made to the bill.
