HY RAFFERTY TELLS OF
 SHOOTING AT APACHE
Miller Killing Came About Over Dis
 pute of Telephone Pole.

lily Rafferty, deputy sheriff of Co., chise coun'V arrived in Phoenix yes terday with a patient for the state asylum for the insane. After deliver ing his man to the proper authorities Rafferty visited the sheriffS office and during the converse ton he was asked about the shooting of Deputy Sheriff F. Miller at Apache on Tuesday.
 Rafferty said that the alleged mur- der was the outcome of a quarrel be- tween Miller and J. w. Richart, the man who is accused of the murder. Miller besides being a deputy sheriff was also connected with a telephone company that had a toll line passing through Apache. A telephone wire passing between the postoffice, run by Richart, and the Miller residence was sagging and Richart called Mill lers attention to the fact. Miller then said, Well I have no pole to fix it with so it will have to wait until I can get one from the com pany." It is then alleged that Rich- art told Miller to take pole from q pile of lumber in the rear of the post office and that he could return it when the pole arrived from the tele- phone company
 Miller fixed the wire and soon after Richart is alleged to have asked Mill Ter what he meant by stealing the pole Miller replied that he had re- ceived permission and he could not see how the transaction could be call ed a theft. Richart then, it is alleged, called Miller a liar which action was resented by Miller who said that he could produce witnesses in his favor. It was while Miller and his witness were entering the pOstOffice that the tragedy occurred. As soon as Miller entered the door he said, T have got my witness. what have you to say now?" and Richart answered by rais- ing a shot gun and blowing Miller's head completely off.
 After cleaning up the store Richart went into Douglas and surrendered to the authorities. He refused to make any comment upon the murder and made no statement beyond the fact that he had shot Miller.
 Rafferty is the second Cochise de- putty now in the city. Allie Howe is the other.

ASSEMBLY IMPEACHES (Contfnued from Page One)

tbongh he was not vet convicted therefore he is not now eligible to his office.
 These arguments were placed before inc lieutenant governor by the Demo- cratic leaders early this afternoon, but SuIzer was not molested. few min utes after the governor left his office, Patrick EMcCabe , clerk of the sen ate. appeared in the executive cha1n- Der with a copy of the articles of i'm peachment and a summons and com plaint which he intended to serve on the governor. When informed by the governors secretary he had missed the governor by scarcely a minute, McCabe asked for an appointment for tomor- row. Secretary Platt replied the gov ernor would be in the executive cham Der at o'clock, and he would try and arrange matters at that time.
 It seemed practically certain tonight that the governor and lieutenant-gov- ernor would both resort to legal tests of the respective claims in the courts, which in the history of New York state were never called upon to hand down an opinion and which will act as a precedent. RumOrs of what form the tests would take offered such wide choice that for the lack of author itative statment no one cared tonight to venture more than a guess.
 Upon leaving the chamber, the gov ernor went for short auto ride and then returned to the executive mansion where he may be in consultation until a late hour with his advisers. Besides D. Cady Herrick, it is announced his attorneys at the trial will be Irving G. Vann. of Syracuse; Louis Marshall and Austin c. Fox, New York; Harvey D. Hinman of BinghamtOn: Virgil kel- logg of Watertown; and James Jay Gordon of Philadelphia. These are eX- preparation of the governors defense. Herrick and Marshall were among those at the home of the governor to- night where the lights burned until late. S. ,Alo
