This has reference to the situation in
 which Jose Moreno finds himself. He
 was in the rear of the Central saloon
 yesterday afternoon when F. COrdOva
 came along with a package contain
 ing a pair of Overalls and a blue shirt,
 which he had just purchased. and was
 looking for quiet place where he might array himself in his new ha- biiments.
 Moreno held him up for the package and took it from him py force because
 he was a larger man. Cordova hunted for an officer and found Constable Murphy. A little later Cordova pointed out Moreno. The officers at tention would have been attracted to him anyhow by the closeness of the 1 fit of his garments. for he had all ready dressed himself in the stolen ! clothing.
 Moreno was taken to jail and before being locked up he was stripped of ! his stolen finery. and in that shape. clad only in pair of shoes and a | look of chagrin, he was marched to
 the cell room Later in the day he was given a pair of old Overalis. It was necessary to hold the stolen
 goods as an exhibit. but they vii be turned over to the owner after a hear

RAY MINING CAMP
 GROWING RAPIDLY
George Swartz, Hotel Proprietor Thinks Ray Will be the Biggest
 Camp in the Territory.

A Phoenix visitor yesterday vas George Swartz of Ray Swartz was formerly employed at the Ford hotel but of late has become a hotel pro prietor himself and is now conducting the Pullman at Ray He was asked yesterday about general conditions in the big mining camp.
 You will have to imagine" he said, "a town of 5000 inhabitants. whereas, a few months ago there were hardly 1000 people there. By the first of January we expect a population of 5000. The town is beginning to show the result of the Ray Consolidated's expenditure of millions on the mining property there. Fifty new cement houses with baths and the latest i'm provements are being built The pay roll of the Ray Consolidated this month was larger than at any time in its history A board of trade has been organized with Frank Mordorf as president and last week We all got out and cleaned up the whole town just to make it look attractive and look de- cent.
 
 carloads of ore shipped daily through Ray to the smelter at Hayden The same number of empty cars per day will be going the other way All this will tend to give some life to the landscapes I believe that the Ray camp will soon be the biggest mining camp in the territory"
 Swartz brought down with him a huge chunk of native copper which vas placed on exhibition in George Mintz' office. It weighs many pounds and refutes the old time theory that there is no native copper in Arizona
 SwartZ bought out the Pullman hotel which is now a two-story cepent block building with B rooms. He Is now contemplating adding another story to it.

SUCCESSFUL RAID
 ON CHINATOWN
Yu Win, the Proprietor of Percentage
 Games Caught and Punished.

Constable Murphy made a raid of Chinatown late on Wednesday night and captured Yu Win, significant name in view of what later develop ed. It was not an appropriate name: Il Win would have been more to the point for Yu Win was the proprietor of a variety of percentage games at which nobody could win but Yu Win
 So dead in the door was the China man caught that he did not think it worth while to engage in the formality of defense It would be a waste of time and a lawyers fee. He ac- cordingly pleaded guilty before Jus tice Johnstone and was sentenced to pay a fine of $50. He paid it and had money left.
 There is probably a great deal of gambling going on in the catacombs of Chinatown along with a lot Of other forbidden cussedness. II is only when the sin becomes outbreaking that raids can be successfully conducted.
