Sax Francisco, .May 27. In connec
tion with the recent developments and
talk of the possibility of the Atchison's
extending its line to San Francisco, the
departure of J. It. Wilbur for the east
today is significant. Mr. Wilbur, with
other Mm Francisco capitalists, controls
valuable rights of way leading to this
city from The Needles. A feasible
route has been already surveyed
and some grading has been done
in Tejon pass. Another matter of some
significance is the fact that all retrench
ing and cutting of forces and salaries
incidental to the recent Atchison has
not been enforced here. Tho agency in
this city has not only been passed but
plans are now being made for its re
moval to larger quarters with better
facilities for increasing business.

New Yokk, May 27. Shipments of
American cattle to Europe, alive and
dead, last week amounted to 15,000 head,
a fallingoffof 25 per cent, from the week
beforeat n loss of $45,000. Tho con
dition of tho English market has
become so bad that shippers find
it less disastrous to keep their cattlo
here and lose $20 n head freight on, tho

space for which they have contracted,
in some instances as far ahead as Sep

Never before has there been such de
moralization among shippers. Telegrams
asking relief have been pouring in on
the steamship agents. Ono shipper
offered $30,000 to cancel his contract
with ono line, Shippers also fear that
parliament will pass a law placing a
duty on cattle to protect the Knglish

Inn Kepnrts and Six Indictments Handed
In Yesterday I.lst of the Unfor
tunates. Under the direction of District Attor
ney Frank Cox. the Territorial Grand
Jury got down to business very rapidly,
coining into court twice during the day
and bringing a total of six indictments,
and that without yet reaching the case
of the Chinese highbinders. The jury
investigated and ignored two charges,
tho first being that of assault with a
deadly weapon against Hop Lee, and
the second that of grand larceny against
Consencion Garalas.
An indictment was found for a bur
glary against Jesus Taos, who was
charged with having broken into the
harness shop of Hobert G. Andre
on the night of April 25th. Taos,
together with all tho other parties who
were indicted yesterday, is already in
the county jail.
William Fox. who had the scarcely
commendable forethought to endeavor
to raise money upon a check that did
not belong to him, had a true bill for
forgery returned against him. It is
charged in the indictment that on tho
0th day of May Fox had in his possession
a check for $35 drawn on the Pacific
Hank of San Francisco, nnd made paya
ble to Pert Spencer. To this check lox
forged tho indorsement of Spencer's
name, and hence the present trouble.
On May 2 Charles Gano drew a gun
and attempted the life of James F.
Simms, jr., for which offense he now
stands indicted of assault with intent
to commit murder.
John Paul was sanguinary, also,
for in the early days of
May he tried to carve Win. S. Col
lins with an axe, the Grand Jury re
turning a true bill for assault with a
deadly weapon.
Leonardo Garcia was indicted for as
sault with a deadly weapon in having
attempted to use n large and able-bodied
knife upon the person of W. L.
Mitchener on May 2, and Juan Jarras
had a true bill returned against him for
a Hkc offense, he having selected Mar
cial Moreno as his victim and May 1 as
the time for the commission of his
crime.
A OOOl) MAN ClONE.
Death of a Highly ltespeeted Citizen of
I'hocnlx.
At 1:30 o'clock yesterday morning
died George Marlow, one of the best
known and most highly respected resi
dents of the Salt Hiver valley. The im
mediate cause of death was pneumonia,
and Mr. Marlow's sudden taking off is
the sadder from tho fact that it is now
only five weeks since he was married to
an estimable young lady of Phoenix,
Miss Ismert.
George Marlow was born in Canada
just forty years ago, and has been in
Arizona twenty years during tho
greater part of which time ho has fol
lowed tho stock raising business with
such success that bis estate is now val
ued at $1,000,000. He has resided in
Phoenix since 1888.
From 1885 to 18S9, he was n partner
with J. It. Kelley, in the cnttle and
sheep commission business, nfterwards
conducting the business alone. Mr.
Marlow had stock ranges ; one at Syca
more, Yavapai county, eighty miles
northwest of Phoenix, nnd one near the
Superstition mountains, fifty miles east.
He nlso left two well cultivated ranches,
embracing a quarter section each, dis
tant eleven and thirteen miles respect
fully west from Proenix. During the
past three months he has shipped out of
Salt River valley between 3,000 and 4,
000 head of cattle. In fact no has prol
ably put in circulation more money
than ten ordinary business men. He
was public spirited, temperate and a
model man in every way.
The funeral will take place today at
9:30 a. in. The procession of friends will
form at his father-in-Iaw,Peter Ismert's,
residence on Madison street, and at 10
o'clock services will begin in the Catho
lic church.

Proceedings of the Baptist Home
Missionary Society The Con-
srreffiitioualistM at Boston.
Boston, May 27. The sixth annual
meeting of the American Unitarian As
sociation began today. The nominating
committee was instructed last year to
formulate and adopt a method for the
election of directors.' They reported to
day, recommending as professional
works for the year the method used in
tho election of Harvard overseers, with
certain modifications.
In regard to women on the lward, tho
report says that while it is fitting that
men shall have the practical man
agement, it is equally lit that women
participate therein, and recommends
that in every annual election the name
of one woman be placed in tho list of
nominees. This would secure the
presence of three women directors on
the Ixinrd at present.
In regard to the number of directors
on the side, the New England Commit
tee finds three members from the Mid
dle and Southern States and three from
the Western States and the Pacific
Coast as the projier proportion.
The committee presented a number of
nominations of officers. It was accepted
and the committee discharged, but the
report was not adopted. The associa
tion then proceeded to vote on the plan
of nomination for the coming
year, finally deciding upon sending
twenty-four names for directors to all
the life members and church and mis
sionary societies entitled to delegates
from which they are to ! selected on
the geographical lines already laid down
and returned to the committee.
The report of the directors stated that
the record of the year was satisfactory.
.Men and money are in demand, how
ever. The rerwrt speaks especially
hopefully of the Work in Japan.

HE LIKES IT.
HIlEWHTKIt CA.MEHON IS IN LOVE
WITH I'HCKNIX.
A lieautifiil City Surrounded Hy Thrifty
Orango droves The Capital l'erma
nently Located.
Hon. Brewster Cameron, who visited
Phoenix one day last week, has been in
terviewed by the Tucson Star, and has
expressed the warmest admiration for
the Capital City.
"I noticed a great improvement In Phicnix,"
said Mr. Cameron, "since I visited that city last
fall, noticeably In the number of elegant resi
dences recently erected there. Frank Nicholson,
who formerly lived In this town, has built a
really beautiful dwelling house in Phu'iiii, and
General Clark Churchill has almost completed a
magnificent residence there, one which would
attract attention in any city of one hundred
thousand inhabitants for its architectural
beauty.
"Hut no person can get any appreciable Idea of
the future of I'hicnlx from the improvements
being made in the city, notwithstanding the fact
that theyarc many and creditable. To properly
appreciate tho fact, which has long been ap
parent to me, that Phoenix is destined to lie a
city of twenty or thirty thousandinhabltants in
the near future, it is only necessary to drive into
the surrounding country, where innumerable
thrifty orchards beai silent testimony to the fact
that tho entire valley will soon be densely pop
ulated. "I was no less surprised than delighted to see,
near the falls of the Arizona canal, some of the
thriftiest orange groves I have ever seen any
where, and I have visited many orange orchards
in California, Florida and Sonora, Mexico. For
the pleasure of thus seeing, in Its infancy, one
of the greatest sources of future wealth to their
beautiful valley, I am Indebted to the kindness
of Mr. Lincoln Fowler, whom I have long known
to be one of the most public-spirited cltliensln
Arizona.
"Fortunately, the Capital is permently located
in l'hu'iilx, so that that question can never
again become a corrupting clement in the poli
tics of Arizona. It ought now to be the pride of
every citizen of our Territory to do everything
in his power to advertise the unsurpassed fer
tility of the valley In which the capital is
situated and to aid in building up and beautify
ing tho capital city Itself. Development of
that valley will ho speedily followed by the re
clamation and settlement of every valley in
Arizona where the citrus fruits wlil grow, and if
Phoenix is made a credit to our people, every
citizen of our beloved Territory will enjoy his
full share of her fame, for a capital worthy of
Arizona can only be secured by a union of effort
on the part of all our prtriotic sons."

The Plan Laid Before
Congress.
Draft of the Bill to Be
Presented.
One Result of the Pan-American
Conference Financial Transac
tions Prescribed.
Washington, May 27. The President
today transmitted to Congrei-s a letter
from the Secretary of State enclosing
the report of the International Confer
ence on the International Bank scheme.
In his message the President
says it is not proposed to in
volve the United States in any financial
responsibility but only to give the pro
posed bank a corporate franchise and to
promote public confidence by requir
ing its condition and transactions to be
submitted to the scrutiny simi
lar to that exercised over our do
mestic banking system. The subject is
submitted for the consideration of Con
gress, in the belief that it will be" found
possible to promote the end desired by
legislation so guided as to avoid all just
criticism.
In his letter to the President Secretary
Blaine sets forth the advantage to be
derived from such a project, and says in
part :
The merchants of this country are as
dependent upon the bankers of Europe
in their financial transactions with their
American neighlwrs as they are upon
the ship owners of Great Britain for
their transiortation facilities, and they
will continue to labor under those em
barrassments until direct banking sys
tems are established.
Tho report of the committee of the
Pan American Conference presents a
simple and easy method of relief, and
the enactment of the measure recom
mended will in the judgment of the
conference result in the establishment
of projier facilities for inter-Ameriean
banking. A Dill lias been prepared at
the State Department to carry into ef
fect the recommendations of the com
mittee. The bill designates the United States
delegates to the Pan-American Confer
ence commissioners to receive subscrip
tions to the en pita i hock. The inter
national American Bank books for that
punwse may be opened in Washington.
New York and other principal cities
in the American republic. As soon as
50,000 shares are subscribed the sub
scribers shall have the usual powers to
organize a corporation which snail have
the same privileges now enjoyed by
banks in general. Its acquisition
of real estate, however, is limited
to 15 per cent of the capital stock
paid in. The corjKiration may be de
signated by the secretary of the ireasurv
as a depository for public money nnct
may be employed as a financial agent of
the government. The principal officers
shall be in Washington or New York
with power to open branch offi
ces in the United States, Mex
ico, South and Central Amer
ica. The capital stock is fixed at
$10,000,000 in $100 shares, which may
be increased by a two-thirds vote to not
exceed $20,000,000. Business may bo
begun as soon ns 25 per cent of the sub
scriptions are paid in cash, but at least
$5,000,000 must be paid in within two
years.
The board of directors shall consist of
twenty-five persons, not less than fifteen
to be citizens of the United States. Tho
stockholders are made liable to
the amount of their subscrip
tions, but no more. The cor
poration shall file semi-annually
with the secretary of the treasury a re
port of its financial condition, and
its affairs shall at all times be open to
the examination of the treasury depart
ment. Provisions are made for the ap
pointment of a receiver and the winding
up its affairs in case the capital stock is
impaired.
