OVER THE LINE IN ARIZONA Celebration of the Fourth of July AN ATTEMPT AT MURDER A Quiet Fourth In Phoenix—AH at Prescott Robert Tribolet Was Killed by Mexican Soldiers—Lodge Officers Installed at Phoenix Associated Press Special Wire. PHOENIX, July 4.-A dispatch from Kogales says: Information reached here this mcrning Which no longer leaves a doubt of tbe killing of Robert Tribolet by Mexican sol diers near Frontreras. General Caneda of Hermosillo passed through Nogales and Informed the Mex ican consul here of the killing without commenting upon tne quick way of deal lag with the supposed roboer. The Mexican officers, since the late law Was passed regarding tne robbing of ■tagea and Strains, act as police officer, iudge, jury and executioner. Le Qarrett, a carpenter, was locked up In tbe county fail last night on a chirge of an attempt to murder Deputy United States Marshal SlanKard. That the mur der was not actually committed is due to the alertness of tho officer, for Garrett's preparations were elaborate. Tbe motive was revenge. For some time past Garrett lias been quite attentive to an estimable young lady, the daughter of a well known resident of the city. The lady's father knew very little of Gar rett and was wurned by Mr. Slankard to break off the relation. This happened day before yesterday, und Garrett was in formed the same day that bis attentions were no longer desirable. That night he called at the sheriff's office, where Mr. Blankard may usually be lound, and in quired fur him. He happened to be else where at that time. Garrett inquired and Was told where tbe officer lived. He called at Mr. Slankard's house, and upon making a threat 10 shoot him was dis armed by Mr. Slankard. Garrett then made an attempt to get possession of the officer's six-shooter, which had been put back in the belt. That was where Garrett's real trouble began. Mi. Blankard, who still bold the shotgun, struck nlm on the head with it with so much force that the weapon was broken in two at tho breech. Garrett fell and lay for several minutes senseless, and as soon as he recovered sufficiently to walk he was taken to jail, where a charge of attempted murder was lodged against him. ! He will have a preliminary healing be fore Justice Kincaid tomorrow. Tho shells taken from the shotgun were rilled With buckshot. There was a tag on the gun showing that it bad been procured •t Dorris*. Garrett said at tne store he Wanted tbe gun for half an hour to kill a dog. Phoenix is very quiet for a Fourth of July day.

POSTAL TELEQRAPfI Negotiations Looking to the Purchase of Its Control CHICAGO, July 6.—The Times-Herald says that $15,000,000 has been offered for a controlling interest in tbo Postal Tele graph company, that tbe wires of the cor poration may be used to destroy the Bell monopoly. The report is that the Stand ard Telephone company, oacked by the Standard Oil and sugar trust interests, is negotiating for either tbe purchase out right of the Postal company's plant or of n controlling interest in the stock of that company. It is stated that an offer of $15,000,000 was made for the plant of tbe Postal company, that being the par value of all its capital stock. This offer was declined and the next offer was made for a control ling interest in tho company. Negotia tions in furtherance of this offer are said to be still going on. A Refutation Editor Heald :—lt is an vinpardonablo affront which has been offered by the Roy. J. A. B. Wilson of the Eighth-street Methodist church of New York to Spain and to Spaniards; and we cannot believe that those who support him approve the injurious attacks which this evil-disposed man has made on tho Spanish government from his pulpit, with the unpardonable purpose of encouraging the insurgent Cubans, inventing for his purpose fulso nnd repugnant statements such as could come only from the lips of a filibuster, and not from tbe lips of a worthy minis ter of the Gospel. Here are some of his words: "Let tbe government ot the United States recog nize these Cubans as belligerents and re ceive tneir representatives at Washington as soon as they have a government to represent," etc. The Rev. J. A. B. Wilson should take a machete and march to the rescue of his fiiends from the tyranny of Spain. All sensible men, whether Americana or not, will have seen by this timo that the Spanish authorities, including Cap tain-Gerneral Campos, have already shown too much consideration for tho insurgents who have ruthlessly spilled so much blood in this lawless uprising. | PROF.

Reckless Railroaders PASADENA, July C.—The electric rail way company is being criticised, and iustly, too, for the reckless manner in which the cars ure allowed to be run through the business part of tbe city, where the danger to life and limb is greater by reason ot the fact that tho crossings are often crowded and the streets filled with vehicles, that pedes trians are apt to be run down by these cars going at the rate of twenty" miles per hour, or therenbouts. At least they are run entirely too fast for safety, as several people who have nariowly es caped being run over can testify. The cars should bo provided with fenders, but, since they are not all the greater care should be exercised to avoid accidents.
