RETURNING. TRAVELLER
 TELLS OF NEW WORK

DOUGLAS, Sept. 9.-(SpeciaD-
 Captain NJ. w. Greit. the English mining man who is well known in Douglas has just returned to the city after considerable absence. The trip from which he has just re- turned has been an interesting one and an account of it will be found not uninterest.ng to others since it shows the work which Is being done and the progress which is being made in the building of the Harri. man railroad up the Yaqui river.
 Capta Greit has been in Quay, mas and in coming to Douglas he came not over the usually travelled route. up the Sonora railroad, but over the new railroad so far as it has been completed and thence by horseback and stage. He reports that the terminus of the new rail road is at this time some ten miles below La Dura on the true Yaqui river. Between this point and La Dura, and in the ne.ghborhood oi that town, there are four big grad ing camps which the Captain believ es are giving employment to some thing like 2OOO men.
 In coming over the railroad Cap tain Greit found that the rains had been frequent and very heavy, occa' sioning many washouts and serious ly interrupting traffic. This delayed his progress by rah

CONSERVATIVES ARE SENT WEST
 ID STARVATION

-Four Thousand COnsumpeives Starve yearly is the startling head line over a press bulletin of the Ma tional Association for the Study and Preventauon of Tuberculosis, made public today
 In this bulletin the national asso ciation takes up the movement to prevent ind;gent tuberculosis suffer CTS from being sent to the South west to become public charges, and usually to undergo great privatio uselessly.
 Data concerning the numbers of these sufferers who are sent to the Southwest every year was obtained by the national association from To- cal health authorities some time ago.
 In the bulletin just given out as a result of the practice of Eastern doctors who persist in sending dying consumptives to the Southwest is characterized as "cruel and inhu- man."
 Fully 71S0 fersons hopelessly dis eased with tuberculosis annually, says the bulletin, come to de in the states of California, Arizona, New Mexico. Texas and Colorado, most of them by order of the.r physicians.
 "The statement, which Is based upon the testimony, of well-known experts, and all available statistics, shows that at least 50 per cent of those who go to the Southwest every year for their health are so far ad- cannot hope for cure in any eli mate, under any circumstances. More than this, at least 50 per cent of these advanced cases are so poor that they have not sufficient means to provide for the proper necessaries of life. which means that 4315 con sumptives are either starved to death or forced to accept charitable relief every year.
 'It is not an uncommon thing, the national association states, flor whole families, who can hardly eke out a living in the East, to migrate to the West in the hope of saving the life of some member of the fam fly. in most instances, the abject poverty of such cases forces them to beg, or to live on very low level. Often consumptives who cannot at- ford the proper tsaveling accommo- dations are found dead on the trains before reaching their destination. The resources of almost every char itable organization in the Southwest are drained every year to care for cases which would be self-suppprt- ing in their Eastern homes.
 It costs on an average, at least $50 a month for the support of a consumptive in the Southwest. in- cluding some medical attention. The national association strongly urges no one to go to this section who has not sufic.ent funds to care for him self at least one year, in addition to what his family might require of him during th,s time. It is also urged that no persons who are far advanced with tuberculosis go to so distant a climate.
 Consumption can be cured, or ar rested in any section of the United States, and the percentage of cures in the East and the West is nearly the same.
 Any physician, therefore, who sends a person to the Southwest without sufficient funds, or in an advanced or dying stage of the dis ease is guilty of cruelty to his pa tient. Renewed efforts are being made to stop this practice, and to encourage the building of small hos pitals in every city and town of the country"

Gill, secretary of the State Fair
Association, is lying at the Vapor
City Sanitarium, dangerously
wounded, as a result of an en-
counter with City Detective Potts
about 4:30 o'clock this morning.
He was shot drought the
neck, and not through the head,
as had been reported, and It is
believed at this time that he will
recover, unless complications
arise. The bullet entered the
back of the neck and passed out
in front, missing the vertebrae
and the jugular vein about al
eighth of an inch, and striking
no vital organ. 4 fractional

From the best information
obtainable, it appears that Gill
had been out with the boys
during the night, and had become
Intoxicated. Detective Potts, a
personal friend of his, was try
ing to take him home in a cab
against his wishes, and a quarrel
ensued.

a knife and began slashing at the

several Slight cuts on his left arm
and his right wrist while he was
attempting to ward off the
blows.
