to the serious illness of the wife of
County Auditor Wilmann, the hear
ing proper has been continued until
Tuesday, July goth, at 9 o'clock a. m.
Nj. E. Ryan of Brainerd, who was
appointed special commissioner and
referee, was present at the beginning
of the hearing and took charge of
the proceedings.
The state was represented by

; County Auditor John Wilmann
and Commissioner A. w. Danaher
have retained f. E. Mcdonald as
their counsel and he was present in
their behalf, while Yves Wright was
represented by p. ]. Russell. F. o.
Sibley failed to put in an appearance
and it was stated, unoficially, that
he had said that he would not
appear to answer to the charges.
The state moved that the charges
against County Auditor John Will
mann be first taken up. These
charges were for nonfeasance in
office.
Attorney Mcdonald presented an
affidavit which had been made by
Mr.. Wilmann in which the latter
stated that his wife was seriously
ill and her death was expected at
any time; and asked that more time
be granted as it had been utterly
impossible for him to go into the
matters with which he had been
charged; that it would be necessary
to have at least four days to 20 over
the charges and that more time than
that should really be allowed.
Assistant Attorney General Smith
stated that the proceedings in these
cases were different from the ordi

charges preferred were according tc

RETURNS FROM EXTENDED
TRIP THROUGH The WEST
W. L. Brooks Tells of Conditions "Out
West."-Satisfied With His
Home Town.

w. L. Brooks, president of Bemid j
Commercial club, accompanied by
his wife, have just returned from a
six-weeks' trip through the north
west in company with DR.. and Mrs.
E. H. Marcum of this city. The
party visited Denver, the Grand
Canyon, Los Angeles, San Francisco,
Portland, the Seattle exposition,
Vancouver, Victoria and returned
to Minnesota on the Canadian-Paciic
via Winnipeg, Mr.. and Mrs. Brooks
reaching Bemidji Sunday morning
DR.. and Mrs. Marcum will be here
the last of the week.
Mr.. Brooks stated that he is
more than pleased to be back in
Bemidji once more and is very
enthusiastic over his home town
and its opportunities.
In an interview this morning,
Mr.. Brooks said:
1.-THE business men of the west
certainly are hustlers and all we
need to do is to pull together as
they do for our little city and we
will soon see definite results.
The farmers on whom we are
going to be dependent in few
year must be encouraged in every
way. The western farmer works
scientifically. One wealthy farmer
told me that half of his expense is
for fertilizers to keep his soil up in
good condition and this, too, on
land that is worth from 5000 to
$500 an acre. If we can get farmers
of means up here in northern Mime.
sofa and show them what we have
at $40 to $12 per acre we can
shortly become the center of a
wealthy farming community"
Mr.. Brooks talked with many
bankers while on his western trip
and found that the financial condi-
ton in the west is rather quiet but
very safe and comfortable

MATT GALLIVAN MADE
ESCAPE FROM CO. JAIL
Picked Lock and Got Away.-ls Still at
Large. Being Held on Charge
of Burglary.

Matt Gallivan, who was confined
to the Beltrami county jail in this
city to await the action of the grand
jury at the fall term of court on
the charge of burglary, made his
escape from the jail during the
night Of June 18th, and despite all
efforts of Sheriff Hazen and his
deputies and other officers in this
part of the state, Gallivan made his
escape and is still at large.
Gallivan was arrested in April on
the charge of burglary in the third
degree and was indicted by the
grand jury, the charge against him
being later dismissed. He was re-
arrested and held to the grand jury.
During the night of June 18th
Gallivan managed to escape from
from the county Jail. The morning
after bis escape it was found that
the lock on the center window in
the north side of the second story of
the Jail had been picked. One lock
was found near the barn in the
court house yard and the other was
recovered from the gutter near the
fence. A crooked wire and a key
were also found on the premises,
indicating the manner in which
Gallivan had made his escape.
Sheriff Hazen offered a reward of
$50 for the apprehension of GalIivan
and kept silent the fact of his escape
until the present time in the hopes
that Gallivrn would be apprehended,
but there is no clue as to the where
abouts of Gal]ivan.

DISCOVER YELLOW METAL NEAR
 KELVIN
SAID TO RIVAL REGENT SALOME STRIKE IN RICHNESS AND
 EXTENT

PHOENIX, March 26.--Another rich gold strike. which may start stampede similar to the Salome excitement has been made east of Kelvin, and not far from Steamboat Rock. J. II. Bates and Alex. Sears are the lucky discoverers of the new gold find. s. D. Gardom and Phil Grigsby, deputy sheriff of Pinal county, grubstaked them for the pros pectipg expedition which resulted 80 happily and will share equally with them in whatever they may have To- cated.
 MT. Gardom was informed of the strike yesterday afternoon by an ac- quaintance, George Cinseler, who had just come in from Kelvin. MT. Gardom has just come from the Salome gold strike and had not heard anything about it.
 Later MT. Gardom saw Frank Schil- ling, also just in from Kelvin, who told him that he had seen the ore exhibited by Sears and found it to be glistening with the yellow metal. It was one of the richest pieces of rock he had ever seen. Sears and Bates are keeping tho location of their ind secret until they have staked out all the ground they wish, when they will invite the world to take what is left. They are of tho opinion that there will be plenty of ground left to make few millionaires.
 w. B. Twitchell told the same story of having seen Sears exhibit some ex- traordinarily rich gold ore. MT. Gar dom has written to Sears and Bates for accurate information, which he expects to receive within two or three days
 J, H. Bates is an oid-time prospector who sold the Burro Mountain copper mines in New Mexico to P. T. McGrath some years ago. While Gardom was in Kansas City last winter he met MT. Bates, who came back to Arizona with him, and soon after left with Sears on prospecting trip.

 CHANGED
WHILE TRADING IS DULL THERE SEEMS LITTLE DEPOSITION
 TO SELL SECURITIES.
OPERATIONS IN SMALL ISSUES
COPPER HIGHER AT HOME AND ABROAD AND WHEAT SHOWS
 BULL DISPOSITION.

NEW YORK, March 26.--Dullness in the stock market was accentuated to- day, but the character of the market was little changed. Reaction is post poned in spite of running demand, and from this it is inferred there is no in elination to sell stocks. The demand remains, however, at very low stage.
 Interest today centered chiefly in a few low grade stocks and the move ment in these had no other reason so far as revealed than suspected opera tions of pools in the stocks.
 The Gould group was unevenly strong. Money on call today leaned below the recent privilege rate and time loans also were easier. Estimates of cur rency movement indicate that the $6,- 300, 900 of gold exports have been more than made good by the receipts on bal anee and on the interior movement, and by the gain on snbtreasury operations.

 Several of the leading bulls gave the market good support from the start and this prompted buying. In the last half of the day the market derived addition al strength from talk of lively export business.

TOWN OF WINCHESTER GROWING OUT OF DESERT NEAR RE
 CENT GOLD STRIKE.

PHOENIX, March 26.--Word is re- ceived that the town of Winchester is being plated today by engineers at the Desert mine, two miles from the recent bonanza gold strike, and nearly hundred lots were spoken for at $25 each before the stakes were driven.
 The Desert mine is the nearest de- veloped water supply and the big mine has been under development for some time. There is good building and a boarding house, but they are overtaxed by the rush.
 Two or three other strikes of good orc are reported, but not to compare with the phenomenal Arizona Northern, which is being developed by the own CTS and no stock is for sale. Reports are so fiattering that conservatism justi- fies delay in dissemination.

The newly formed Producers Associ- ation gives out "oficial" figures each month, showing production, sales and surplus stock of copper. Wall street at first looked forward to these monthly statistics as solution of the uncertain ty which has always surrounded this industry, owing to the fact that the largest of the copper producers has never given the public any official state ments of its operations. Now, however, Wall street statisticians are beginning to pick these figures 10 pieces in 6 way, which, granting the accuracy of their throws considerable doubt on tho reliability of the returns of the Copper Producers association. It is pointed out, for instance, that the re- ported production for February would indicate an annual yield in excess of any previous years tonnage, and that the reported consumption for the same was at the rate of over 20,000,- GOO pounds per annum as compared with an average for the past nine years of 495 100000 This is hardly credible in the face of the admitted fact that pres. ent consumption is less than 70 per cent. of normal, whereas the figures for pre- vious years, on the average of which the is based, include at least four years of unusual prosperity in the York World
