WILL L|QU|DATE
ARIZONA DEBTS
PLANS BEING FORMULATED TO
LIQUIDATE ALL INDEBTEDNESS
AGAINST HUMBOLDT sMELT-
Err IN THE TERRITORY

1t is authoritatively stated, by one
in close touch with the movement for
reorganization, that definite steps are
being taken to pay off the Arizona in
debtedness of the Arizona Smelling
company, owner of the smelter at Hum
boldt, and that plans for this may
materialize by January Is, possibly
sooner, or perhaps little later, says
tho Journal Miner.
This, of course, would be the prelim-
mary step toward perfecting the re-
organization of the company, plans for
which were put under way some time
ago. as stated at the time in the Journ-
al. Miner. Since the appointment of a
receiver for the company, in the dis
triet court, here, those interested In the
smelter have been bending their ener-
gies to perfect this reorganization as
rapidly as possible, and only the scar
city of money has prevented their plans
being worked out in Detail prior to
this. Now that the financial situation
is so vastly improved, there seems to
be little doubt but that those behind
the company win soon have things in
shape for the paying off of the obi
cations and the resuming of operations.
The statement of F. NJ. Murphy, of
the S. i. p & p. railroad and the Pres
colt National bank, to Journal-Miner
representative that he had received as
surances from New York to the effect
that plans were under way looking to
the paying Off of the Arizona claims
against the smelter company by Jan
uary Is, if possible, is taken to mean
that the people of Yavapi county can
with reasonable certainty, look for a re-
sumption of operations at Humboldt in
the near future, provided the present
plans of those interested in the com
pany do not meet with any unlocked
for rebuffs.
"The resumption of operations at
tn Humboldt smelter would mean for
us the starting off of the new year in
great shape" declared Mr.. Murphy.
cit would be the means of causing a
great resumption of activity through
out the county, and am of the opinion
that 1t will not be so very long before
the Humboldt plant will again be in
operation

SHIFT BOSS HITS
AND KILLS MAN
WORKING FOR HIM
TRAGEDY AT THE UNITED VERDE
sMELTER AT JEROME BY
BLOW ON JAW.
Tim Monahan Strikes Smelterman
Named Miller and Kills Him-Mona-
han Under Arrest--Both Are Well
Known.

A smelterman named Miller, who
was employed at the United Verde
smelter in Jerome, is dead as the re
suit of being struck by Tim Monahan
shift boss of one of the convertors
and the latter is under arrest, pending
the outcome of the eoroner's inquest
The ARRAY occurred Monday morning
about 8 o clock. Monahan, it is al
legged, noticed that the molten metal
was leaking at the base of one of the
furnaces, and inquired of Miller, who
was in charge of that particular work
why he did not clean out the metal
trough. Miller retorted by applying to
Monahan vile epithet, the latter re-
senting this with the remark that while
he might be an Irishman, his mother
was not what Miller intimated she was
Miller is said to have then put his
hands on Monahan, with the evident
intention of throwing him to the floor
of the smelter room, or Of engaging in
a rough-and-tumble fight with him, but
before he had accomplished his pur'
pose Monahan struck him heavy blow
in the face. Miller staggered back and
Monahan is said to have then walked
away.
Miller made an effort to return to his
work, but faltered, and would have
fallen into the boiling mass of metal
had not his companions caught and
upheld him. He stood upright for a
moment or two, then walked TO near
by door, where he stood for few sec
onds, as though to cool off. Suddenly
he crumpled up and fell to the ground
When his companions reached him he
was dead.
Monahan was at once taken into Gus
tody, and will be held, pending the re-
suit of the inquest.
Some of the witnesses Of the ARRAY
declare that Monahan struck Miller on
the point of the jaw. This will proba
bly, be definitely determined at the in
quest.
Both men were married and well
known in Jerome among the United
Verde employees, having lived there
for some time. Both had numerous
friends, who regret the affair as very
a. 80 tr,x al
quarrel.
