Seligman g Big Stock Center.

Seligman is growing fast into one of the most important stock shipping stations on the Santa Fe railroad according to the statement of Constable J. w. Dial of that town. who is here on official busi- ness.
 Thousands of cattle and sheep were shipped from Seligman. this season." Constable Dial said. land the stockyards there are entirely too small to accommodate the con- stantly increasing shipments.
 "A petition was recently for warded to the management of the Santa Fe, requesting that addition al shipping pens be added to the stockyards. A representative of the railroad is now in Seligman in- vestigating the matter and it is the general belief that new pens will be added to the yards.
 When I left there, Carr, Davis & Nelson had 1000 steers in the pens awaiting the arrival of cars. and c. c. Hutchinson had 1000 sheep ready for shipment also, in the pens. waiting for trains to load them.
 Stock cars are reported scarce on account of the large shipments from Arizona and other states to the eastern markets. Cattlemen and wool growers report a very prosperous year. with bright fu- ture prospects. Mutton and wool prices were especially good early in the season and the price of beef steers appears to be sdvancing."- Prescott Courier.

The police believe that the man shot
by Policeman Bigelow on the Barbary

wounded the policeman was NJ. J. Nc
Cormick, who escaped from the Stock
ton insane asylum December II. He
was also known as P. J. Monahan,
Harry Hayes and U. P. Wilson. He was
a general railroad man, having been a
brakeman, conductor, section boss and
yardmaster.
Mccormick blew up a caboose on the
Santa Fe and attempted to blow up
another caboose with dynamite. He
was arrested on the Mojave desert
April 27 and was sent to the asylum
June 4. IN the circulars sent out about
his escape he is referred to as a man
who drank heavily and while under the
influence of liquor was dangerous, as he
thought everybody was his enemy and
undertook to kill any one he happened
10 have a grudge against. He was 81
years of age and a native of Canada
A photograph of Mccormick was at
