Police Say Tivo
Murder Cases Are
A I most Identical
(Special to The Republican.)
EOS ANGEL.ES. Cat., July 13.
More than two weeks have passed
since Charles E. I'endell. a wealthy
money lender, was found murdered
in ins on ice in tnis city, and tne case
remains as much of a mystery as it
was on the day the mutilated body
was discovered. c f one thing, how
ever, the police are thoroughly con
vinced. They believe that when the
person or persons who killed Pendell
are found, then the longsought mur
derers of Joseph Logue in Chicago
will be found. Seldom have two
crimes committed at points so far
apart offered such a case of similarity
in every important detail. That the
two murders were committed by the
same hand appears certain to those
who have studied the two cases.
The murder of Joseph H. Logue oc
curred in Chicago on December 20
last. Logue was a money lender as
was Pendell, the Eos Angeles victim.
Moth also dealt in diamonds and jew
elry. Roth murders were committed
in the offices of the victims. Roth,
were committed in the middle of the
day, Logue being killed at about the
hour of noon and I'endell at about -o'clock
in the afternoon. In each case
the last person seen to enter the of
fice was a well dressed woman. Rob
bery is supposed to have furnished
the motive in each case, though
strangely enough the nature and
amount of the booty have never been
determined definitely either in the
Locue or the Pendell case. Roth vic
tims were known to be in the habit
of carrying considerable sums of
money and large amounts oi jeweirj .
The brutality of the murderer was
evidenced in each case, both of
victims being shot, slashed
beaten.
The detectives are positive that
two murders were committed by
the
and
the
the
same skilled professional criminals a
man and a woman. Rut in neither
case did there appear the slightest
clue that might lead to the identity
of the pair. The murderer or mur
derers committed their crimes so
skillfully and so quietly that persons
in adjoining offices heard no sound.

for Coming of Regiment
These are busy days with the Na
tional Guardsmen of the entire state
in anticipation of attendance at l he
state encampment at Prescott for the
ten days beginning next Thursday.
Wherever there is a company in Ari- j
zona may be found just now dozens
oi members of the organizations mak-
ing preparations to leave at the de
signated time and looking forward to
the service reouired. For sco.-s of
the young men making up the guard
of the state the encampment will be
the only vacation thev wiil have an
it will be the very kind the most of
them would choose, for it means not
onlv getting near to nature but it
means too. a training they would be
unable to obtain in anv ther way.
It is now pretty definitely deter
mined that there will be at least
eleven of the twelve companies com
prising the First Regiment in camp-
It is just possible, too. that Company
G of Douglas, may yet be numoereit
with the others, thereby bringing out
all the companies in the state. While
it is a little early yet to know de
finitely, it is estimated that there is
likely to be about f.on soards-n -n in
camp this year.
Locally Companies A anil I! are
leaving no stone unturned to insure!
record breaking attendance' and in
dividual and company efficiency. For j
some time both companies have be n (
holding twice the regular number of
drills and there has been squad and
platoon work as well which is bound
to be beneficial when the boys are
under tiie eye of the ol nel ol the
regiment and the instructor-inspector.
For more than two weeks. First
Lieut. R. D. EaGarde. I. S. A., de
tailed to Arizona as inspector-instructor,
has been at Prescott, looking
after every necessary detail to the
end that when the troops finally ar
rive it will be found that everything
is in readiness and that the w:np is
just as it should be.
This morning a detail .f twelve
men tinder Captain A. C. Taylor, of
the commissary, will leave fc.r Pres
cott with camp stores, and th: regi
mental equipment. To Captain ray
lor will be left the work of staking
the camp and making everything
ready for the coming of the r-evera!
enmnnnies. When his work is com
pleted, it will require only the arrival
of the men themselves wih their
tents to soon make a tented city rise.
It is estimated that less than an hour
after the Imys are on the grounds and
the pack trains have arrived that
every tent will have been pitched, the
company ranges placed, the bed rolls
opened and the camp in full swing.
Colonel A. M. Tuthill commanding
the regiment will accompany the
southern troops to Phoenix where
they will be combined with those from
Yuma, Tempe and Mesa, joining Com
panies A and P. from Phoenix and
leaving for Prescott over the Santa
Fe at nine o'clock. It is expected
that Prescott will be reached before
three o'clock.
Company A members are expected
to meet this evening at the armory
to make up their blanket . rolls and
make everything ready for the de
parture on Thursday morning. There
will be only two more drills of this
company, that of this evening and
again on Wednesday evening. For
weeks past especial attention has been
given to the men enlisted more re
cently and they have already rounded
into form which places them en a
level with the old timers.
On Tuesday evening Company B
will hold drill and will also prepare
its blanket rolls and place all its camp
equipment in readiness for shipment.
On Wednesday the company wagons
for both A and B will pick up the
baggage of the individual members
and take all to the depot in readiness
to be placed aboard the special train.
The various company officers, com
missioned and non-commissioned are
still working to make certain that
those who have promised to attend
camp will not be among the missing.
Employers have been visited and the
value of the instruction as well as. the
outing has been very clearly pointed
out bo that whatever objection they
may have to their going may, if pos
sible, be removed. Both of the com
panies of this city promise the largest
attendance in their history.
The other companies likely to be
present are Company C of Tempe,
Company D of Mesa. Company E of
Prescott. Company F of Snovvflake,
Company II of Yuma. Company I of
Flagstaff, Company K of Tucson,
Company L. of Yuma and Company
M of-Morenei. As stated before, it
has been rumored that Company G
of Douglas will not be in attendance,
but this has not been verified.

culation in England
Tassociated press dispatch
LONDON. July 13. The Russian
Grand Duke Boris proposes to fallow
the example of King George and
Colonel Roosevelt by bringing his de
tractors into court. Attorneys for the
grand duke have given notice of a
libel suit against an American maga
zine which has a wide circulation in
England.
The article which the magazine' pub
lished described the grand duke's
career in Manchuria during the Rus
so-Japanese war as a lurid episode. '
and said that General Knropatkin
sent him back to Russia. The case
is to be tried in London, if it comes
to trial, and lawyers are trying to
gather evidence here now.
The grand duke himself and Gen
eral Knropatkin seem to be the ones
most competent to testify whether
General Knropatkin se-nt Boris away
from the army. If the famous mem
ber of the Romanoff family and the
commander-in-chief of the Russian
armies in Manchuria take the witness
stand they will provide an interesting
episode for the British metropolis.
A Chinese invasion of Tibet by a
large array is in progress, according
to private advices reaching London,
the main purpose of which is to sell
to the simple-minded Tibetans a coun
terfeit Indian rupee for 32 cents that
costs only 1G cents to manufacture.
Troops laden vith these false eoins
have been sent across the border by
the governor of Szechuan. but the
Peeking government has nothing to do
with the expedition, and apparently
does n .t know about it.
The Szechuan mandarins evidently
are not interesteel in conquest. The
Indian rupee has long been recognized
as money by the Tibetans. Its face
value is about 32 cents, while its sil
ver value is IS rents. An inspiration
seized the governor of Szechuan that
rupees might be made the Cheng-tu
mint for 16 cents and worked off on
the innocent people of Tibet at their
nominal value. Hence the Szechtian
troops are conveying great loads of
Cheng-tu made rupees with them.
The governor mixes patriotism with
thrift. While the coins are made to
resemble genuine Indian rupees in
size and general appearance, the pre
sentment of a Chinaman under a man
darin hat is substituted for the head
of King George. Just who the China
man is has not yet been learned.

ROOSEVELT HAS
WORD TO SAY
ABOOT REFORM
Says Progressive Organiza
tions Offer Pest instru
ment for Obtaining in
Municipal Matters Sot
and Industrial -Justice
ial
(Special to the Republican.)
NEW YORK, July 13. In issuing to
day its latest service bulletin contain
ing an address by William L. Ransom,
chairman of the committee on judicial y
leform of the department of popular
government the progressive national
committee presents a foreword by
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, dealing
with the problems of municipal admin
istration and policy. This foreword is
of especial interest at this time in view
of the country-wide movement looking
to reform in city administrations.
("olonel Roosevelt says:
L'nlike both the old parties, the pro
gressive party has a platform which in
very important respects applies in local
precisely as in state and national af
fairs. This may mean that in certain
cities the local progressive organiza
tion offers by far the best instrument
for obtaining in municipal matters so
cial and industrial justice through
clear and efficient governmental action.
But in many of our cities, including all
our biggest cities, the conditions are so
utterly different that our first effort
must be to keep the local and national
issues distinct.
In these larger cities, the problems
of administration and policy are some
times more formidable and difficult
than those confronting many states:
but the conditions of economic injus
tice, the opportunities for constructive
governmental activity, and the conse
ejuences of retrogressive administration
all come a little more closely home to
the citizen, than similar phases of state
and national government sometimes do.
It is not so much that the problems,
the conditions, or the needs, are so
much different, in municipal as com
pared with state and national adminis
tration, but that they are more obvi
ous and undeniable. Thus it comes
about that in these cities there are
many good citizens who thus far mis
takenly, as we believe oppose us on
national and state-wide application of
our fundamental principles and purpos
es, but are willing to join with us in
giving local application to essentially
the same humanitarian conceptions of
government. They disagree with us.
for instance, on the tariff, or on the
power of the national government to
deal with child labor and problems of
the minimum wage, but agree with us
that the powers of the municipal gov
ernment should be actively employed
to secure not merely honesty, economj
and efficiency in administration, sta-

ernment in anil out of the halls of

national capital and throughout the

uncovered partly at least, through
the astounding confession of "Col
onel" Mulhall who was for years one
ot its active agents in Washington
and elsewhere.
Colonel Mulhall's confession in
volves the names of many men who

in recent years and of some who ar!
Mill members of the senate or the

licans are in his li.-t. Of course the
