SHOOTING AFFAIR
IN M. STORE
Dolly Takes Three Shots
at Berry.
Two Balls Enter Berry's Arm and
One Strikes Him in
the Back.
A lively shooting affair took place
this morning in the store room of the
Basbford-linrmisief company. in
which W. D. Berrv was painfully but
not seriously w.iuuded, the shooter
being B. H. Dolly.
The circumstances of the shooting,
as near as i-ould be learned. wa6 over
an order that bad been taken in the
store by Mr. Berry Saturday uigbt.
It is a rule of the store that no order
taken after sis o'clock on Saturday
night need be delivered by the
drivers. Saturday night there was an
order taken for some hay and it was
claimed by Mr. Berry that the order
was taken before six o'clock, but Mr.
Dolly, who has been a driver at the
store for several months, claimed that
the order was taken after six and be
refused to deliver it. He was explain
ing the reason for his refusing to de
liver the order to Mr. Hope, the pres
ident of the company. when Mr. Berry
came up and some words passed be
tween Berry and Dally when sudden
ly Berry struck him, knocking him
down. Dolly sprang to his feet and as
he came up be pulled a 32 calibre pis
tol fromjhis pocket and fired at Berry,
who started to run. He fired another
shot, both balls striking Berry in the
left arm, below the elbow and the
other ball striking tbe muscle of the
arm above tbe elbow and embedding
itself, in the shoulder. Beery then
dropped down behind a counter and
as he dropped down Dolly fired again,
tbe ball plowing a furrow across his
back. Berry was taken at once to Dr.
Sawyer's office, where his wounds were
dressed. Tbe ball in the shoulder
was not located, but the X-Rays will
be used tonight to locate tbe ball and
it will then be removed. Dolly drove
to nis nome in west Frescott as soon
as the shooting was over and told bis
wife what had happened. While he
was there Sheriff Roberts went to the
house and placed him under arrest
and be was placed under SuOO bonds,
which he gave and was released. His
preliminary examination will be held
next Friday before Justice Talbot.
Mr. Dolly has been a trusted em
ploye of the B. -B. Co. store for near
ly a year, and ha- lived in this vicin
ity for several years and has always
been considered a very quiet and
peaceable young man, and has born
a good reputation. The Journal -Miner
man talked with several of the
employes of the store who saw the
whole thing and they with one voice
declare that Berry was to blame, as be
is a much larger man than Dolly, who
is a small man and not in very gocd
health and is no match for Berry
physically.
Mr. Berry was .-een and he admitted
that be was the aggressor in the trou
ble and said be did not intend to ap
pear against Dolly in tbe matter. He
said be was glad that the matter was
not more serious and as he was not
badlv injured he desired to have it
dropped.
President Ed Block of the Merchants
Miuiug company returued tiii:- after
noon from a visit to the company V
mine in Big Bug district. He says
that the ore body encountered on the
fourth level is eight feet wide and the
ore is an excellent quality of good
grade milting and concentrating ore.
J. J. Brooks, who has been identifi
ed with tbe development of the Ban
nie and other mines of this county for
several years, left today for Los An
geles where he will organize a com
pany to develop an extension of thr
Bodie mine. The show ing that is be
ing made by tbe Bodie mine would
seem to warrant the systematic devel
opment of tbe property now held by
Mr. Brooks.
D. J. Sullivan, who has just recent
ly returned from a mining bMtaNi
trip to Chicago, left last night for
Congress to inspect the work that has
1 een done on his mining property
since he went away. He expects a
party of stockholders and others who
may become interested in the proper
ties of the United Gold Mines coin
panies to arrive bere in a few days !
inspect tbe mines.
property. No doubt this very person
when endeavoring to sell his property
painted as elaborate a picture as he
0 old faucy until be obtained his
price, but just as soon as the property
i 11s to pay and its operators are
endavoring to enlist the aid of suffi
cient capital to properly open up the
veins and erect reduction plants, this
snnie person will bob up with a tale to
the would be investor of how he is be
ing hoodwinked and "knock" for all
be is worth. Again we would say
don't be a "knocker." It is right
and proper to be conservative, and to
do all in your power to prevent the
wholesale robbery that is sometimes
Bade by stock jobbing concerns; but
le sure you know whereof you speak
before you raise your bund against a

Black Hills Mining Review.
Fred E. Biles, vice president and
general manager of the Dividend Con
solidated Gold Mines company, came
in from tbe properties at Chaparral a
day or two ago and brought same fine
looking ore with him which bad been
recently taken from the properly.
Tbe company has several men at work
getting things in proper shape for ex
tensive work which will be begun in
the near future. This is bound to
be one of the great mines of thi
county as soon asjsufficient machimry
is in place to handle and reduce the
ore which is blocked out in the differ
ent claims belonging to tbe company.
There are thousands of tons of splen
did ore all blocked out and ready to
be broke down, hoisted and reduced
to bullion.
According to reports from tbe Brad
shaws Matt Moss, who is one of the
pioneers of that rich section, has re
cently opened up some very high
grade ore in his claims near Crown
King. The ore is said to run 400 to
950 ounces in silver and several dol
lars in gold to the ton.

The complaint alleges that iu the ab

is demanded, not only by our own in
terests, but our governmeut has de
finitely committed itself to ji policy
treating Cuba as occupying a unique
position as iegards this country.
From :he political association Cuba
has bad with the United States, it
necessarily follows that she must a'so
become included within lines in our
economic policy. The treaty submit
ted for your aoproval secures to tbe
United States economic advantages as
great as those given Cuba. Not au
American interest is sacrificed by the
treaty, but a large Cuban market is
secured for our products. It would
iudeed be shortsighted for us 'o refuse
to tuke advantage of such au oppor
tunity, and force Cuba into making
arrangements with other countries to
our disadvantage. Failure to enact
this legislation would become peril
ously near tbe repudiation of our
pledges of faith as a nation."

Word was received today at tic
chief engineer's office of the 8. P. P.
A P. in ths city, that the three new
oil burning engines Nos. 14. 15, and
16, which have been ordered for some
time, were shipped from Dunkirk,
New York, this morning. They were
ordered to be rushed through as fast
as it is possible to get tbem over the
track, and if nothing unforseen bap
pens they are expected to arrive here
in about ten days. There will be no
time lost in getting tbem into com
mission as soon as they arrive bere, as
tbe road bas been short on motive
power for some time, the thirteen en
gines which tbe company now own
and oue or two which they have had
rented, being crowded to their utmost
capac'ty to handle tbe tonnage that
bas come over tbe road, tbe business
having increased to sach an extent
tbat the engines have not even had
time to go into tbe shops occasionally
to be overhauled and repaired, and
have had to work away when they
were hardly in shape to go on tbe
road. This bas been tbe cause of tbe
trains being late so much the past few
weeks. It is for this reason that tbe
company is so anxious to get their
new engines in commission.
While tbe company will only have
sixteen engines they will have one en
gine numbered 17. This is accounted
for by tbe fact that they will have no
No. 13. and tbe engine which would
have born that number will be 17 in
stead. Tbe reason for skipping tbe
13 spot is because many engineers are
superstitious and will not run on an
engine with tbe boo-doo number.
When tbe S. F. P. A P. complete
their road between Ash Fork and Phe
nix they had six engines and they
were not all busy, bnt tbe volume of
business baa constantly grown and
they have been compelled to add
more and more to their rolling stock
until tbey have nearly trebled their
motive capacity and all other rolling
stock bas been Likewise inceased. At
tbe present rate "of increase it will not
be two years more uutil tbe business
of the road will require at least twenty
five engines. .
