PHOENIX CAVALRY
 PATIENTLY WAITS
 TO BE MUSTERED IN

Phoenix stands a very good chance of getting a national guard company some time according to Adjutant General W. s. Ingalls,, but he is not prepared to state just when that some time" is going to be. Phoenix has a complete organization, he says. that has been waiting for the last two weeks for muster into service
 The organization reported ready on Feb. 26, and the adjutant general at once wired to the United States army, southern department, Fort sam Houston to that effect, and stated that the organiza ton was ready for in spection An answer was expected from the southern department the next day, and daily since then. and finally the answer came yesterday.
 The southern department blandly in formed the adjutant general that his notice had been received and that the department had wired to somewhere for such blanks as the Phoenix or ganization would want, adding that with the blanks would be sent certain instructions on the method of pro- cedure.
 The adjutant general says he took care to see that all requisite blanks had been secured and propegly filled before he wired the southern depart ment at all. There may be some blanks" left at Fort Sam Houston. according to the Phoenix organization. but it feels that no more are needed here.
 Mesa is reported having gay time organizing a guard company there difficulties of various sorts having been encountered. Further details from Mesa are expected

 NOTES TO TIE STATE

Governor Thomas E. Campbell is asked to find out, for the reason that somebody has S70.000 extra that he desires to donate to the state.
 To be sure, the money is in Mexican treasury notes, not quite negotiable at face value just now, but perfectly good at any time when MeXico's tenn porary embarraSsmeints are over. The notes came due in 1885, s13 1000 worth, and very few of the coupons were clipped, the face value of the notes and unclipped coupons now totaIling approximat, ly $70,000.
 George A. Shea, superintendent Of the State Pioneers home at Prescott, sends the big news. One of his pio- neer guests, A. E. Welch. who went to the home from Maricopa county is the man who wants to make the presentation.
 Governor Campbell is not d all cer- tain about the states authority to ac- cept gifts, but is having the law in vestigated.

 We made a clean open campaign, we made no charges of dishonesty or insincerty against our opponents, nor did we indulge in innuendos or mud singing of any kind, yet the lowest man on our ticket led their highest man by fifty votes.

HOLD TWO ON CHARGE .OF AN ASSAULT WITH
 INTENT ID MURDER

Robert Walsh and Jack Grey, charged with holding up and shooting FIorentine Arnez, a Mexican, near the Roosevelt school a week ago last night, were held to answer to the superior court following a preliminary hearing yesterday morning before Justice Charles DeSaIes Wheeler Both pleaded not guilty.
 The two young men were charged on two counts with assault to commit murder with deadly weapons and with robbery. Bond for each was fixed at S15 900 on the first count and $5,00O on the secon d, and was not furnished.
 The complaint against the two young men was made by AreneZ, who is recovering from the wound received in the shooting, and who was the principal witness against the two yes terday.
 Arenez testified that on the night of March 1, Welsh and Grey came to the camp he and another Mexican, Bar tello Fuentes. were occupying near the Roosevelt school. Arenez declared the two said their motor car had gone into a canal nearby and offered him $ to help them get it out, or S10 if he would bring his horse and buggy
 All four got into the buggy and started to the scene of the supposed auto mishap, Arenez said on the stand Alter they nau started, AreneZ leStl- fled, Welsh pretended to lose his hat, and when the buggy was stopped drew a revolver and fired immediately. AreneZ said that Welsh and Gray then ordered him and the other man down the road and drove off with the outfit.
 Following their arrest near Chand Ter, Welsh and Grey are alleged by officers to have confessed to Sheriff MontgOmery that they held LID the Mexican. Welsh also is alleged to have admitted he fired a shot, though claiming he did not hit Arenez. The confession is also alleged to have admitted the theft of eight other horses and seven buggies and wagons by the two.
 When first arraigned in justice court, Welsh and Grey denied every thing included in the alleged confes- sion. Welsh, the larger of the two, is said to be 22, while Grey is said to be 19

ORDERS TRANSFER OF
 PROF|TEER|NC CASES

Ordering the motions in the Prescott profiteering cases transferred to the Prescott calendar, Judge David F. Dyer of the federal court declared that he would prefer that Judge Sawtelle pass on the demurrers filed here Judge Dyer said that if called upon he would be inclined to follow the deci- sion of Judge Paris of his own dis trict who held that the Lever food control act was unconstitutional.
 lie stated that the decision of Judge Paris involved the question of consti- tutionality of the act and that if the attorney general of the United States did not agree with Judge Paris it would be taken to the supreme court of the UnitKd States. In view of that situation, Judge Dyer said, he did not propose bringing the question into this district to embarass the judge of the district
 This order means that Judge Saw telle will handle all cases of alleged profiteering in Prescott when he holds court there in April.
