The testimony of Deputy Sheriff
Haynes was practically the same as
that of the other witnesses, except that
he had been informed by Gin and Beard
that a Mexican had brought them a
note from Olds at the cabin. asking
! that whoever received the note come to
the cabin at once. After the two men
had gone to the cabin, Olds then wrote
the note telling of the shooting which
was delivered to the sheriffs office
Saturday night.
Julius Riser, who has known Odds
since 1887 testified TO the eccentricities
Of the man, and stated that he consid-
cred him insane at times. He told OF
the incident of the holdup on the
Roosevelt stage while Olds was driving
it, and said that since that time Odds
had been subject 10 temporary fits of
insanity
City Engineer Milton who had known
Olds for some time testified of his be-
lief in the insanity of Odds, ard cited
two instances in which Odds had at
tempted To Kill two men who were
working with him without any provo !

The witness stated however that in |
these attempts he believed that Odds /

Observer Jesunofsky. of this station
Tor not including the name of Tucson
IN the list OF cities and towns whose
temperatures are reported daily. The
star seems 10 think that Tucson is
excluded because it would make a
better summer showing than Phoenir.
All this proves that the Star does
not understand the situation. The
reason that Tucson is not included
is because theN temperature is re-
ported only once daily from the mag
neuc station while the regulations
provide for the printing daily of both
maximum and minimum temperatures.
Tucson has what is called a third
class station, whereas it ought to
have a first class station similar to
those of Phoenix, Yuma and Flag
staff, and no doubt il could have
such station if it's people would ask
for it. Hon. NJ. A. Smith, who is
now in Washington, and Delegate
Cameron, could easily secure the loca-
ton of such a station at Tucson.
1t has been stated that the neces-
sary instruments for a station are
now at the university. All that is
needed is the formal location and
the appointment of an observer.
The observations for Tucson and
vicinity are now taken at the mag
netic station of the geological sur
vey, which is located eight miles from
Tucson. 1t could not be placed near
er; that is, it could not be nearer
than eight miles from a railroad
track, as it has been found that vi
bration from passing trains nearer
than eight miles affect the delicate
instruments used in the purposes for
which magnetic stations are estab-
lished.

Of Phoenix and Tucson, there has
never been a claim that that of
Phoenix is superior. except in the
winter time, when it is a little lower
at Tucson. 1t is about two degrees
lower here in the summer months
though for the last two months the
Phoenix average has been lower than
the Tucson average.

NEW YORK, July 17.-With
three dead here from cholera
within the last as hours and with
IA cases in the detention hospital
at Swinburne island, New York to-
day faced a situation of the plague
which has brought United States
experts scurrying here from
Washington to help stamp out the
menace. Half dozen of the pa
tients under observation are in a
serious condition and the gravest
apprehension Is expressed that If
the disease once begins to run in
the city the whole East Side may
be depopulated.
Most of the cholera victims al
ready in quarantine came from
the Italian liner Moltke. and the
detention period for all passengers
from infected districts of Italy
hereafter will be doubled. Even
though the passengers appear to
be normal their intestinal secre-
tions will be carefully examined
to see If they are cholera carriers.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July II.
When the contempt cases of
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison
were heard by Justice Wright it
was practically admitted that the
power behind the prosecution was
the American Anti-Boycott asso-
citation.
Attorney Daniel Davenport ad-
mitted that the charge after Alton
B. Parker, counsel for Gompers,
had declared that he was able to
prove it.
Despite the expose, Justice
Wright overruled all motions to
dismiss the charges on the ground
that the committee was preju-
diced.
Parker then demanded that the
case be sent to another court on
the ground that Justice Wright
was disqualified from giving the
labor chiefs fair trial, he having
expressed opinions as to their
guilt.
Wright overruled that motion
also and denied having expressed
any such opinion.
