TEMPE COMMON COUNCIL
 IN REGULAR SESSION
Unpreced tented Amount Of Routine Business Comes Up for Atten-
 tion-Other Matters

The enlargement of the Tempe pumping station. the proposed sewer system, and a vast amount of routine business involving the expenditure of more money at one time than has been made in years for such purposes, furnished almost no end of business for transaction at the regular month Iy. sesison of the common council of Tempe held at the city hall last Thursday evening. Chief of all mat ters came the opening Of bids for work on the new pump house and the subsequent letting of the con tract.
 The enlargement of the station calls for almost a complete remodeling of the present structure The present pit will be enlarged to just double it's present size, the excavation to be made on the west end. The interior of the station will De remodeIcd and more fully equipped. side from the new duplicate pump to be installed, a work shop and other departments required in connection with the water system will be maintained here The contract for the excavation work on the pit the construction of the new building and incidental work pertain ing to the station, was let to Joseph Standage X Sons Of Mesa for a sum slightly over $1200. The contractors will be ready to take up their work within the next week or SO, according to present plans.
 Routine business was far above the average. The street work of the past month and general repairing of all property throughout Tempe has ~been the source for the accumulation of all kinds of bills With the pay ment of everything ordered by the council there is little doubt but what the expenditures of last month will go far above the average.

STRIKE AT TRAGEDY STAGE.
Girl Killed by Clothing Shop Owner.
Three Others Hurt.

Rochester, n. Y, Feb. 5.-The
first death resulting from the strike
of garment workers occurred here
to-day, when Valentine Sauter, pro-
prietor of a clothing shop, fired a
shell from a shotgun into crowd OF
strikers who were engaged in a dem
onstration in front of his place Of
business. One girl striker, Ida Brae-
man, II years of age, was killed by
the shot and three others persons
were injured. Two of the wounded
are women. Sauter employs about
forty machine hands, and 700 strik-
ers went to his shop this afternoon
in an effort to persuade the operatives
to walk out. During the demonstra-
ton many stones were thrown.
Sauter fired from an upstairs win
dow of the shop. Miss Braeman died
almost instantly from the wound she
received. The police arrested Sauter
and he is charged with murder in
the first degree. More arrests will
be made, the police say, on charges
of rioting.
James McManus, of the bureau OF
mediation and arbitration, who has
been trying to settle the strike, to-
day sent circular letter to the man.
ufecturers and employees, suggesting
that a conference be arranged. Such
a conference, he believes, will result
in settling the trouble or defining the
issues. So far the strikers have
made no formal presentation of de-
mands.

MYSTERY OF THE DEEP.
a Most Remarkable Story is Told by
Steamers Captain.

Newport News, Va, Feb. 5.-Nlth
sails snugly furled, the lifeboats IN
the davits, the galley plentifully sup
piled with PROVISIONS and water, but
without a vestige of human life
aboard, the Norwegian bark Remit
tent, Rio Grande to Liverpool, was
picked up January 19 in mid-ocear
by the British steamer Roumanian,
according to Capt. Claridge, of the
latter vessel, who arrived here to-
day.
The strange disappearance of the
Remittent's crew recalls the famous
schooner Marie Celeste mystery,
which puzzled the maritime world
for many months.
Lost Again During Storm.
When picked up, only to be lost
again during a severe storm, the Re-
mittent was in latitude 40 degrees,
80 minutes and in longitude q de-
Sr0S, 0U ulluulSS.
The bark sailed from Rio Grande
October .25 last and never was re-
ported until found by the Roumanl-
an. Capt. Claridge tonight refused
to hazard q guess as to the possible
whereabouts of the Remittent's crew.
Members of the British steamers
crew state that the bark was sighted,
drifting, on January 19. Repeated
efforts to get responses to signals
from the bark were fruitless. Final
ly a boarding party was Launched
from the British ship and a careful
search was made on the bark for
members of the crew.
Ship in Perfect Order.
Everything aboard the bark was in
perfect order, but no trace OF life
could be found and nothing which
might give clue to the mystery was
discovered.
The bark was taken in tow by the
British steamer. When several miles
off the Virginia Capes a severe storm
was encountered. In the midst of the
gale the hawser connected with the
bark snapped and she began drifting
away. Two life boats were smashed
and their crews narrowly escaped
drowning in an effort made to recov-
err the bark. Finally the attempt
was given up.
When last seen by members of the
Roumanian's crew the bark seemed
to be riding out the storm well. The
Remittent is registered as of. 351
tons net.
The Marie Celeste was found at
sea with pot boiling in her galley
and her captains papers on the cabin
table and every indication that souls
were aboard within few hours OF
her discovery. But nothing ever was
heard of her skipper or crew. The
story of the Remittent is scarcely less
strange.
