GERMAN REPLY FRIENDLY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 18-The reply of Germany to the note of the United States government asking Ger many to explain its blockade has been receyed and is found to be most friendly to this country The German government goes so far to recommend to the United States that American warshps convoy all American mer chant ships through the waters of the danger zone so that the danger of an attack the merchantmen might be made impossible The only thing Germany asks for IS that the American ships do not carry supplies to any of the hostile nations In the the German govern ment declares that the blockade of the British coast has been found necessary because of the stand taken by Great Britain in attempting to stop the German food supply by methods which not recognized by international law The government in Berlin also contends that by arnhg merchant ships and ordering them to fly neutral flags Great Britain gives Germany the right to attack English shipping The answer closes with expression ot the hope that the United States will yet be able to dssuade Britain from taking the stand that she has right to pre- vent foodstuffs from reaching the German people No member of the administration here has uttered any op ion with respect to this communication 1t IS thought hardly likely that this government will interfere to the extent of requesting the British government to let food sus pass on to Germany although such course and the consequent raising of the German blockade of the waters in the north of Europe would be of tremendous advantage to American trade and commerce. The blockade now in effect having begun last night at midnight This govern ment will take under consideration at the advisabty of following the recommendation of Germany to send warshps to convoy American merchant vessels

c. l. Morris mentioned in this tele- gram was in Seward for some days during the summer and visited several parts of the country to get an idea of matters. He built so many water ditches on Seward peninsula that if all were placed end to end they would stretch for a distance Of nearly four hundred miles. He built on contract also the Seward Peninsula railroad which owed it's existence to Major L.. H. French who also had Morris to con struct the Oregon creek ditch. JOslin is one of most prominent men in the territory both in an industrial sense and in a political way. Morris is in the contracting business in a large way outside now and has offices in the Arcade Building on Second Ave, Seattle. and is wealthy.

Mexican Dies from Stab
 Ie- As the result of a stab in the leg Ia d-i -s Mexican laborer dead and [another who narrowly escaped simi-
 lar fate is now a thorough believer in
 the old adage The who fights and
 runs away will live to fight another day. The three men were laborers on the Clifton-Morenci road and the trouble started Thursday afternon about 12;30 near the dairy when one of the Mexicans drew long butcher
 knife and started to carve another lamigo with whom he had some grievance. The man assaulted thought that discretion was the bet ter part of valor and beat a nasty re- treat when a friend took up the fight and in return received an ugly gash
 in the leg which severed an artery which few hours later caused his death. The man was taken to the D. c. hospital where the wound was
 treated but in spite of all that could
 be done he died from the injury late
 Thursday night. The Mexican who
 did the stabbing started over the
 mountains on foot in the direction of Eagle creek intending to hide himself
 in the rugged hills of that section. <.
 He had good hours start of Consta~
 ble Hoffman who took his trail as soon as notified and after following him for several miles took him into custody without any resistance. He was brought to Morenci and is con fined in the local jail where he will now await trial for murder. The knife with which the man did the cut ting was of the common kitchen var iety, with a blade some ten inches in length and about two inches wide and Sharpened to a beautiful edge which shows that he was looking for trouble and at the same time was pre- pared for it. Neither of the other Mexicans were armed and stood but a small show against their antagon- ist

Fire at Newtown-

About five o'clock Sunday morning
 fire destroyed two dwelling houses in lNewtown, both being entirely con lsumed. The houses, which were To- cated above the Paul Becker store, were owned by Fidel Esparza and Er-
 nesto Mendoza. How the blaze orig mated is not known. Esparza witl his wife and little child were awaken ed by the heat and were barely abla to escape from the burning building only in their night clothes, the fire having gained such headway that they
 were unable to save anything, and
 in fact were lucky to escape with their lives They suffered a total loss of
 furniture, clothing and building be-
 sides $65 cash which was locked in
 trunk. EsparZa attempted to save
 the money but the heat was so intense that he was unable to reach the trunH
 and had to abandon it. The house
 was insured for part of its value but Esparza estimates his loss at about
 S6OG altogether The building owned by Mendoza was also totally destroy ed but the contents were saved and his loss was of smaller consequence. It is not known how the fire started but it is thought to be due from de fective electric light wiring. There was no water available and nothing conid be done to stop, the spread, of the flames and only from the fact that there was no air stirring the town was undoubtedly saved from dis astrous confiagration. Newtown has
 suffered several disastrous fires in the past few years and had the one of Sunday started in the business sec tion there is but little doubt but that the entire town would have been v-ined out of existence As a result of Sunday mornings fire meeting of

TRAGIC DEATH O F MICHAEL
 COONEY, s
A New Mexican Prospector.


 The mysterious disappearance of
 Captain Michael Cooney, of Socorro,
 New Mexico, well known Mogollon mine developer and member of the
 board of regents of the New Mexico Schol of Mines, was solved with the finding of his body on the fifth of
 February lying in a remote spot in the Mogollon mountains. Captain Cooney left his home in Socorro on October 26th, answering the call of
 the west to return to his former hunt ing ground, and with his two horses
 Tom and Jerry. made his way as far
 as Turkey, Creek, in the Mogpllon mountains, where he was overtaken by one of the characteristic snow
 torms and blizzards of that country
 The water having given out as we'll as food he died, brave pioneer, of hunger, thirst, and exposure His power of endurance was wonderful, such as mark only the passing gener- ation of thise who discovered and made many of our famous mining |camps. Captain Cooney was 76 years pof age, and went alone on his last prospecting trip to the wild eoun- try of his earlier life. He was wealthy man, having operated mines In the district bearing his name in the Mogo1lon mountains of Socorro coun- ty. He had also been at various times mayor of the, city of Socorro, county treasurer and member of the state legislature, and was recently member of the hoard of regents of the State School of Mines, by Governor w. c. Mcdonald. The lure of the mountains had never left him as it seldom everJdoes; and ina manner that portrayed all his manly qualities he diedAuntil the end prospector and lover of the wild, free mountains Of New Mexico. AV Esi.p la3e
 In an almost inaccessible part of the country surrounding Turkey creek one of the aged prospector's horses, I Jerry, was found and nearby his sad dle. Strapped to the horn of the saddle was a small handbag in which was found his diary in which is de- picted the tragic story of the hills. Theb horse was almost starved, al though in good grass. It is believed that the bridle was shed but a short time before the horse was found. Tt e other pony Tom fell from cliff and was killed.
 Vividly is the suffering and great human endurance told in the lines of the diary. The agony of lack of water and food, the visions and ap- partitions of a dying man were all his. But to the last he was sturdy and died game" The writing is in a clear, steady hand, and only at the last, with the bangs of death and the realization of the end, did the writing become struggling. The mar rative of the silent mountains and the end of one of New Mexico's honored pioneers is better told from the diary as follows:
 On Oct. 26 camped at Post No. 20; 27th, at timber; 18th, at point of Lu- era mountains, 18th, at Hubbell's; 30th, at Alexander's; 31st, at Snow Creek; Nov. 1st at the Papineans; End, at mound, old camp, U. S. sta ton; 3rd, at Mogollon creek; 4th at the head of East Fork; 5th, by north branch of Brushy canyon.
 It was evidently here that the cap tain's troubles began, for from this date on his diary reads as follows:
