lauons with many residents of MeXi-
co. came to several of the local Of
hcers. He informed J. L. Cannon and
that official reported to the sheriff.
The American also told the local Of
fcials and with that information Con
stable Policy and Frank Thomas
again went to work on the inmate Of
the county jail
The information was to the effect
that Leandro Maldonado was one of
the two who committed the crime.
Maldonado had shown the American
the gun and watch that he had taken
from the body of Brooks He also
told him Of the narrowing details of
the murder and implicated Ramirez
Finally, after considerable work,
Ramirez confessed to Policy and TO
Thomas The latter Is one Of the best
interpreters in the southwest and
through his able handling of the Ian
guage finally persuaded Ramirez to
tell the whole story.
Accordingly Ramirez informed the
two officers that he was one of the
two men. He told of the crime but
declared that Maldonado had been
the principal in the affair. He told
enough of the details TO convince the
officers they were on the right track.
Maldonado was in Cananea. Deputy
Sherins Newell and Graham, at Mace,
worked on the possibility of getting
him out of Sonora It was just about
the time of the occupation of the
western part of the state by General
Gales and conditions we're too dis
turbed to warrant any decisive action.
Last week, however. Sheriff Harry
Wheeler, accompanied by Deputy w
]. Graham. went into Cananea. The
house of Maldonado was located and
watched Finally he was apprehend-
ed and after much questioning, at the
hands OF the American officers and
those representing General Gales con-
fessed his part in the crime.
According TO the story, Maldonado
with Ramirez, left Naco on the night
of June 27, with a considerable load
Of mescal which they were bringing
+ TO Bisbee. They came by way of
Don Luis and the Cole shaft, and then
/ cut across the country and passed
by the machine shops Of the Copper
Queen Company II was here they
were seen by Brooks and the watch
man Of the shops.
They then went down the hill and
encountered Brooks at the bridge
( Maldonado declares Brooks placed
them under arrest and was using
some rough tactics when he swung
around and grappled with the officer
In the melee Brooks fired his re
volver and the bullet entered Nal
donado's left shoulder. The two mer
rolled down the embankment where

to get the gun away from the officer

to the Mexican hit Brooks in tn,

he was wounded hurried up the EN-

1t will be remembered that on the
early. sunday morning Of June 2S, in
the neighborhood of two o'clock sew
eraI shots were heard, in the direc-
ton of the Holbrook bridge over ,he
subway. Shortly afterwards a small,
Mexican boy ran up to the Plaza
square and notified the officers that
someone had been shot An investi-
ton disclosed that a man had been
brutauy murdered i'm the subway, his
head being mashed in with rocks.
II was not until the arrival of Cor
oner Totman that il became known
the dead man was Walter Brooks. The
murdered man was in the employ Of
the Copper Queen Company in the
capacity of head watchman on the
local properties.
According to the stories told at the
inquest. Brooks had seen two MeXi'
cans pass by the machine shops OF
the company. and had followed them,
catching up with the two men and
meeting his death at their hands near
the Holbrook bridge
All of the indications, surrounding
the murder. pointed to the supposi
tion that the crime was committed by
Mexican bootleggers. Mescal was
found near the scene of the crime
Abandoned canteens, empty of the
liquor and otherwise, were found. Sew

clues apparently failed

was found 1t was definitely estab

FACTS ABOUT THE EXCHANGE

H. NJ. Hendricksen, an Equity
booster at Simcoe. Nd, writes in
to the Equity Excange Conven-
ton headquarters, stating that
there will be large delegation
from Simcoe to the St. Paul Con-
vention Dec. 1879. He seems
to be very enthusiastic as to the
success of the Convention and has
written to the Great Northern.
St. Paul Offices requesting that
No. 3 pick up the delegates at this
point. The Convention Manage
ment learning of this Immediate
ly called at the Great Northern
offices and upon requests of Mr..
Osborn, the Company agreed to
stop No. 2 at this point. This
shows without any doubt that the
hearty cooperation of the rail-
roads in their desire to make the
Convention big success.

THE DOCTORS DIAGNOSIS
Gives Pithy Reasons for No,
eatrontzing Mail Order
Concerns

In the following brief letter
written by a country physician to
a large mail order concern, there
is so much sound logic that we
are glad to reproduce it for the
consideration Of our readers.
The Times has always considered
that the interests of farmer and
merchant are so clearly inter-
woven that anything detrimental
to the interests of one cannot fail
to react on the other.
The doctors diagnosis is as
follows: 1t was written after he
had received a letter from one of
the Large Mail Order Houses in
which the mail order letter writ
ter had advised the doctor that
they had been seeking his name
on their list but did not find that
he had ever bought any merchan-
disc from them and they wanted
to know the reasons why, he was
not one of their customers.
This is the letter:
Your letter of recent date ask
ing why | do not trade with you,
received, and you ask me to tell
you frankly why, l will give you
a few of the large number of
reasons:
First am in business in this
community and am looking to
THIS community with it's varied
industries for my SUPPORT.
cannot ask the MERCHANTS OF
this town for their support if
do not give them mine.
Second-ln looking over my
books | fail to find either Mr..
----- Mr.. --or other
of the company's names which
reminds me that neither of these
gentlemen have ever given me a
penny's worth of patronage. Why.
is this? Am | too far av ay, or
have neither of these gentlemn
ever needed physician, or are
they afraid of the mail order plan
when it comes to the practice of
medicine? | can certainly give
as good satisfaction by mail as
your house can. and will appre-
ciate a CALI. from either of them
when in need of medical services.
Third-In looking over the
SUBSCRIPTION lists for improv-
ing our streets and public high
ways. have failed to find the
name of either member of your
firm down for one penny to AS
SYST in the work. Also I have
failed to find your name on any
of the CHARITY lists where help
has been rendered to our poor:
in other words, you are not down
as contributors to our Helping
Hand Society. In fact, all of the
movements for the bctterment of
our conditions. where our COM
munity has needed the united eff
forts of her philosophical citiz-
ems, l have failed to find your
name among the list of our con-
TRIBUTING merchants. Your
name is not on our city TAX books
nor do I find where you have paid
a city license to do a mercantile
business in competition with our
HOME MERCHANTS.
These are few answers to your
Questions, and I trust you will see
