TROUBLE IN JEROME THREATENED BY
 RENEGADES
Great Mass of Mexican Population Resent Statement That Uprising Was Imminent.

PRESCOTT, Mar. 2S.-There were days when Jesse James and his gang of white men terroized the communi- ties in which they happened to be. They were white renegades. It is true that there are also Mexican renegades and it is aI- so true that bunch of them figured on ribbing up row in Jerome, dur ing the progress of which they calcu- lated, perhaps, to enrich thems selves. It is also true that their plan was nipped in the bud by the prompt ac- tion of Sheriff Young, and it is equally true that any renegades who attempt to start something in that burg in future will meet with prompt defeat. The MeXicans as body do not want trouble; they have nothing to gain by it, and they know this. All things considered, they are) vastly better off than the majority of. work ingmen in the United States, to say nothing of labor conditions in Mexico. The lowest wage paid in Jerome is $3. 50 gold.
 Sheriff Young returned from Jerome, Thursday. He had been in the Copper City for nearly a week, and during that time got line on the situation. He found scores of Mexi- cans who were indignant at the re- ports of the daily press that gener- al uprising was threatened As a matter of fact, there were six or eight who were trying to work out their scheme-and two of these are in jail here in Prescott and the others are known to the authorities As to the maneuvers of this small band. much more is known than it is deem- ed wise to publish. Renegades they are few in number, and in no sense do they represent the sentiment of the mass citizens of Jerome who hap pen to be of Mexican birth

CULPRITS ATTEMPT TO
 WRECK OIL WE'LL

| On Wednesday of last week when the cap was removed from the top of the casing of the Tonto Basin Oil company's well at Roosevelt, it was discovered that two sections Of pipe, and perhaps other junk, had been dropped into the well by some un- known miscreant with the evident intention of destroying the well. For tunately, upon the insistence of Col. James A. Fleming, president of the company at the time operations were suspended, Q plug made of gunnysack, 1 four feet long, was forced down into ! the bore 300 feet to the point where : the casing narrows, a precautionary measure designed to protect the well against just such a dastardly act, and the .resence of tte plug was all i that saved the well from being seri- io"e''- damaged, and perhaps ruined. 1 Coi. Fleming was present when the cap was removed, and the obstruc- tioas in the we'll discovered, and is naturally incensed that anyone should i be so cvilly disposed as to want to destroy an enterprise the success of which would be Of untold benefit to this< section. It was known that dur ing lie storm period :n Januarg some 
 Isence of the watchn,an, and hah re- moved the cap, but it was supposed to have been the act of some curiors person without evil design, who hay ling heard that there vas oil in the well ard gas escaping. wanted 10 sat Iisfy himself of the truth of inc re port. and no suspicion was entertain. e;i that an attempt had been made to do injury to the well The derelict watchma nwas discharged and in qu;ry disclosed that three men had cun;e tu Roosevelt from Globe in an automobile and crossed the lake ill a boat, about the time the well was tampered with, and they are believed to he the culprits.
 Precident Fleming lad an impres sion taken of the Instructions in the well. which shows the ends of all 1 Is inch pipe and a ? 1-2 inch pipe A five foot section of 1 1-4 pipe and g 2 1-2 inch extra exhaust pipe are miss ing, and without doubt it is these pieces of pipe that were dropped into the well and are lodged above the plug.
 Gas is still coming from the vel and Col. Fleming says that there is about forr feet of oil on top of the water above the plug. The pressure from below must be very strong tc force the oil through four feet o gunnysack, of which Inc plug is made The drilling rig and machinery are ir good condition, end it is hoped tc have the well cleared and additiona casing driven within 9 week or ter days, when drilling will be resumed

BARTENDER SHOT TO
 DEATH IN TYRONE

Tyrone, N. M, April 4.-Shot to death, presumably by holdups, some time after midnight last Thursday, the body of Charles c. Brainerd, night bartender in the A. c. Buckner saloon at Tyrone, was discovered Fri day morning when Sam Phillips, day bartender, opened the saloon for busi- ness that day.
 The body of Brainerd was stretched on the floor behind the bar, a gaping bullet wound in the head having caus- ed practically instant death. Nearby lay revolver kept behind the bar, two shells in which had been dis charged and third one snapped.
 Investigation tended to show that Brainard had resisted the holdups, since there was bullet embedded in the ice chest, another bullet hole through a rear door of the saloon and shattered bullet on the floor, it having struck a clasp on one of the doors of the bar fixtures. While the cash in the register on the back bar had not been molested, sack containing s25 in change, secreted nearby, was missing, and this it is believed, was the only booty which the holdups secured.
 Sheriff McGrath and MT. McCart carefully went over the scene of the shooting and after taking into con sideration all of the facts, came to the conclusion that Brainerd was murder ed, since the empty shells in the re- volver, together with the bullet holes in the ice box, bar and back door, and the further fact that Brainerd was shot in the left side of the head, all tended to offset the theory that the bartender might have committed suicide.
 Two suspects were arrested, but no conclusive evidence as to their guilt was secured. However, a determined investigation to run down the slayers is being made by the officers.
