Urges FAIRNESS TO
THE FARMERS.
Lever ThWartS Senate'S
Attempt to Change Cot
ton Statistics Bill.

A special to The News and Courier
from Washington on Wednesday says:
Representative A. F.. Lever, this morn
ing turned neat trick in the interest
of the cotton growers of the country,
when be appeared before the commit
tee on census. at tho request OF its
chairman, in opposition to tho Senate
amendment to the House bill, OF which
he was Joint author, authorizing the
director OF tho census to publish STA
tistics concerning tho amount OF cot
ton ginned, the quantity OF raw cot
ton consumed in manufacturing estab-
lisEments of every character, the
quantity of baled cotton on hand, the
number of active consuming cotton
spindles and the quantity OF cotton
imported and exported, with the
country Of origin and destination.
The law now requires that statistics
of the quantity Of cotton ginned shall
be published ten times yearly and un-
der the resolution introduced by Mr..
Lever and passed several years ago,
the quantity OF cotton consumed in
manufacturing establishments and the
quantity of baled cotton on hand also
should be published quarterly. A
number of members from the South.
during the earlier days of the session,
collaborated the bill, which not only
requires the publication of full statis-
tics as to the amount of cotton ginned,
but also statistics as to the amount OF
cotton consumed in manufacturing es-
tablishments, and the quantity of
baled cotton on hand and the number
of active consuming cotton spindles,
and the quantity of cotton imported
and exported, and that these figures
should be published monthly, so that
the farmers would be given the same
information, with respect of the con-
sumption of cotton and the demand
forit, as the law now gives to the con-
sumers, with respect of the amonnt OF
production.
This bill passed the House without
any serious trouble, but the Senate
amendedit so that the statistics OF the
quantity of cotton consumed in manu-
featuring establishments and the
quantity of baled cotton on hand
should be published only ruarterly IN
each year. Mr.. Lever was asked to
come before the committee ard give
his version upon the Senate amend
ment, and he very strongly objected
to it on the ground that there could be
no hardship upon the manufacturer Of
cotton to give monthly statement as
to the amount consumed in his estab-
lishment, and the quantity of baled
cotton on hand. He also urged that
it was only fair to the farmer that the
manufacturer should be made to give
to the public the situation with respect
of the amount of cotton being con-
sumed in his establishment, and the
quantity of it on hand, if the farmer
is to be compelled to give to the world
ten times a year the amount of cotton
ginned from time to time. The COM
mittee unanimously disagreed to the
Senate amendment and will urge the
bill as it passed the House. Mr.. Le-
yer, of course, is quite happy over the
result, believing, as ne does, that 1t
means only fairness and justice to the
cotton farmers and to the entire cot
ton trade.

 The Yaquis are depredating the region eastward from Minas Prietas and making traffic and travel un- safe. A pack train going to San Javier was attacked Friday of last week, two of the muleteers killed and three wounded. Expectations are reported from the vicinity of San Jose de Pimas, on the Matape river, about twenty miles from La Colorado, from Tecoripa and other points.

 The Cocospera ranche of Proto Brothers of Nogales, was raided by Campa, in his recent raid across from Naco to the line of the Sonora railway, and beyond to Altar, where it terminated most in- gloriously. At Coeospera forty-two horses were taken, with all the saddles and bridles about the place; the house was entered, all the trunks and wardrobes were strip ped, the brigands carrying away what they desired and scattering or destroying what they wanted not; all the arms and ammunition on the place were confscated; and the store was robbed of everything, even the salt bin being scraped bare.
 All trains stop for meals at the depot hotel at Carbo station on the Sonora railway. Everything the market affords served in the best style.
 Saturday last a band of Yaquis or bandits destroyed bridge on the Yaqui river branch of the Southern Pacific of Mexico, about thirteen kilometers above Corral, and d train going to that place from Tonichi ran into the burned struc- ture and was wrecked. The bridge had burned away from under the rails, leaving them suspended across the chasm. The engineer could not perceive that there was no bridge until he was so close that a stop was impossible. He shut off steam, applied the emergency brake and abandoned the engine, as did the fireman. The locomotive, tender and water car went into the the arroyo, but the rest of the train stopped on the edge. No one was hurt.

Farewell Performance of Lionlike March Puts
 Baseball Out

The weather since the opening of the Tri-ToWn baseball league season has been one thing after another. Sunday afternoon it was an excess of boreal atmosphere that made the sun shine feel as thin as a piece of ham on a dining car locks. The notes of the beams falling on the Warren park made it look as chilly as Ruth St. Dennis doing the dance Of the seven wells when the sixth is in the discard
 That, in brief, was the reason there was no ball game at the park Sunday afternnon, so Warren remains unde- feated. Bisbee and Warren were paired for the afternoon, and the up towns were pledged to lift the poll covering of the Warren bunch, or, from anothe- viewpoint. the Warren bunch was consecrated to the noble purpose of operating on the Bisbee bunch for the removal of the epider. mis That puts the sporting editor in the clear, anyway.
 The game that was to have been played Sunday afternoon will be re set for another date, and the sched- ule will follow the sequence as orig inally set The game for next Sun day afternoon. provided that old King Winter does not sneeze again, will be Bisbee contra and versus Lowell This will defer the opportunity Of comparing Bisbee and Warren, but by defeating Lowell it can put re verse on the dope that because Low. ell defeated Bisbee and Warren de feated Lowell, that Bisbee. though first in the canyon, is last ill the league.

 George Sechemoilis, Greek, was arrested Sunday afternoon by Officer C. N. Thomas as he stood on the sidewalk of Copper Queen plaza. There was a crowd around him and omlnous threats were being mumbled. When the officer searched Sechemoil- is he found an ugly looking .3S cali Der revolver, loaded to the last chamber, in his pocket Tom ZaIa- barelon swore to complaint against him and the case will be heard in Justice Burdick's court Wednesday afternoon at o'clock. The defend ant claimed that he was merely car rying the gun from a neighbofs house to his own but apparently Ee loitered on the way
 Trouble was ayerted at the Ari- Zona saloon when Officer McRae ar rested Gavino Juarez and found murderous-looking Bowie knife hid den inside his boot leg. He had had trouble with another Mexican and is said to have made threats against him but hid the knife when the off, cer appeared. The knife is a new one with stag horn handle and razor-edge blade about eight inches in length.
 Juarez was tried in Judge Highs court yesterday morning and sen fenced to pay a fine of S75 and in ad- dition to serve twenty days in jail. He was unable to pay the fine and will therefore serve ninety-five days in jail. The Bowie knife was con fiscated
 Frank Eigin was arrested yesterday morning on Brewery Gulch charged with threatening to use pocket knife ou John T. Bgrgeson. He was admitted to bail in the sum of s250 and the case set for o'clock yes terday afternoon but at that time the case was postponed until this after noon at o'clock and Elgin allowed to go on his own reeognizance.

INVASION IF HOME
 Is EXCUSE ASSAULT
When One Is in Domicile He May RepulSe Any
 lreSpaSser

Jose Vegas was discharged when he was arraigned in Judge Highs court yesterday afternoon on the charge of making a deadly assault on Ramon Lopez with two-foot piece Of plank. According to Judge High, the twentieth century is not different from that the first, in that a man is complete lord of his own home. that under his own vine and figtree' a man is a monarch, and it Is his right to repel invasion and % avenge insult When one man starts out to beard" his neighbof in his den" he must suffer the con sequences.
 The consequence suffered by Ra- mon Lopez was a three inch hole on the port side of his head. Lopez was showing the effects of the beating he received at Vegas hands during the trial. He answered "quien sabe' to every question asked him by the court, and when he was asked why he could not answer questions, he replied that he vas sick in the head" He denied that he had seen Vegas on the night Of March 29, the date of the near-killing. thus paying a splen- did compliment to Vegas walloping power
 Vegas told straightforward story. He said that Lopez's sister-in-law and two little children had taken refuge at his house from Lopez, who it was said had abused them. Later Lopez went to Vegas house and told Vegas that the woman's husband had sent for her. Vegas replied that inasmuch as the husband he'd sent her there for protection, she would remain there until the husband came for her. Lopez at this made an insulting re- mark to Vegas, and the latter as saulted him with a piece of plank
 Lopez sobbed throughout the hear ing, and vowed that he would never drink again. He had been ID iail for days. and the court remit ted the remainder of his sentence.

commissioner On which that official
stated that an analysis had been made
OF the water and that there was moth
ing In IL that was Injurious TO the fish.
The grangers have not decided what
action they will take, but they feel
positive that the dye is responsible
for the killing OF the fish and will pre-
