The reading publio has already been given numerous graphic accounts of the scenes which followed the appear ance of Temporary Chairmen Shannon and Ling upon the stage to preside over the Democratic Territorial Con vention, and none of them were much exaggerated. Tho only way in which the reader might be misled would be in believing that other than the utmost good feeling prevailed. Both sides were putting up a large sized bluff and neither supposed that the other would go so far. During the intermission that was agreed upon, an earnest conference was going on between Ives and Packard of the Smith forces and Herndon and Nor ris of the Wilson supporters which re sulted in the unanimous adoption by the convention of the following resolu tion: l Resolved, That the committee on credentials, heretofore appointed, be discharged; that the following gentle men, to-wit: E. A. Sawyer, Navajo; Dr. F. A. Sweet, Cochise; W. M, Adamson, Yavapai; Sam Barkley, Pima: Henry Lovin, Mohave; M. J. Nugent. Yuma, be and they are hereby appointed a committee on credentials; that such committee shall at any time previous to its discharge, have power, by a vote of not less than four of its members, to increase its membership by adding one delegate thereto, or any democrat in Arizona: that, such committee shall not make a minority report, and that, if a majority cannot agree on a report, the committee shall report to the conven tion its inability to reach an agree ment. We, the conference committee, ap pointed by the respective factions, hereby agree as follows: The forego ing resolution shall be offered by Mr. TTerudon and seconded by Mr. Packard and both Mr. Shannon and Mr. Ling shall simultaneously submit the same to the convention. Tf a majority of the committee shall make a report the report shall be adopted by the convention us submit, ted. If the committee shall report a failure to agiee a motion to' discharge the committee shall be offered by Mr." Herndon and seconded by Mr. Packard 'nndjput by both the chairmen and the convention shall pass said motion and shall bo in the same condition as it now is. Tills agreement and the proceed ings thereunder not to be construed or used as a waiver or to the advantage of oithor faction. Tho committee thus created iramedi utoly assembled in Dr. Sweet's apart ments at the Adams. None of Its mem bors seemed particularly pleased at being assigned a task so diflicult and freighted with such responsibilities. Tho burden of proof, of course, lay with tho contestants, but tho commit tee decided to listen to any evidence which might throw light on tho situa tion. The specifications submitted by the contestants charged that in tho regular Maricopa county convention tho Smith men had deceived some of the dele gates and thoroby secured a majority for their candidato for temporary chair man, that tho preliminary organization of tho convention was illegal, thereby making tho acts of that convention il legal, and that in Mnoral precincts tho primaries were corrupt and padded. Tlie committee agreed, in regard to the first specification, that without go ing into the question at deception a man'B vote should be counted as ho casts it; agreed that tho second charge Rhould be fully investigated; agreed that all matters pertaining to primary elections are for tho enmity conventions to pass dually upon, and have no right to lie intruded on a coinuiitten repre senting the territorial convention. Mr. Trott, secretary of tho territo rial central committee, who had been empoworod to '"prepare the roster," turned over to the committee all the credentials in his possession. Ho had refused u receive any pupers not ema nating fioin the central committees of the various counties. There were no BISBEE, AEIZONA, TUESDAY credentials for the contesting delega tion from Maricopa, and if thej ever had any credentials of any kind the committee never saw then;. It was learned that tho regular county con vention in Maricopa had selected dole gates to tho territorial convention, elected a comity ticket and chosen the county committee. There was no question from any sourco but what the county ticket and county committee aro regular and legal. Just how all the acts of this county convention were proper and right except that part re lating to the selection of delegates to the territorial convention was not at tempted to be explained. The witnesses for tho Wilson side testi fied that no call, through tho newspa pers or in any other public manner, had ever been-issuecf for a second county convention. From the same witnesses it was learned that the contesting dele gation was instructed by a few of the ex-delegates to tho regular county con vention, who had participated in the regular convention till its end, and who, two or three days after the regu lar convention had adjourned sine die and the time they had been clothed with authority from the voters of their respective precincts had expired, had met in a room and agreed on the con test. In answer to a question as to whether all the delegates to the reg ular convention had been notified of this meeting, the witness stated that they had not. With this contesting delegation, which had been chosen without tho slightest semblance of regularity, or even publicity, who held no credentials from any democratic organization of any kind, or in fact any credentials at all so far as was shown, the committee did not long bother itself. The regular convention was then put on trial. The official record of its pro ceedings, signed oy its en airman aim secretary, was put in evidence. It was agreed that if the convention pro ceeded in a legal manner up to the time of its permanent organization be ing perfected, its acts were all legal and th'ere was no contest. Careful ex amination of tho secretary's record, which was written in an unusually lucid and business like manner, showed all the acts of the convention to have been perfectly legal and regular. It was then agreed that if this teioiil were true there were no grounds for a too test . Witnesses for the Wilson side sttiled that they doubted the correctness of the records in three particulars: First, the figures indicating the vote on the vari ous questions submitted to the conven tion. Second, the copy of the report of tho committee on credentials, and third, that no mention was made of two delegates, one from Kyreno and one from District 31, whose seats being con tested, had voted on the question of their own right to sit in the conven tion. Concerning the first charge, files of the three daily newspapers published in Phoenix, each of which gave a de tailed account, of the convention, were put in evidence and tho reporters called as witnesses. All completely substan tiated the correctness of the secreta ry's record, as did other testimony on same point. The second cnargo was dlsproven to the entire satisfaction of every member of the committee. On the third charge, sworn affidavits were put in evidence from the men ac cused of voting on the question of their own right to seats, denying that they .had so voted. The members of the committee representing the Wilson side conceded that there was no doubt of the correctness of tho recoid regaid ing the first and second charges but were not fully convinced in regard to tho third. Tho Smith men then offer ed, if it could be shown that even if the two delegates had voted during the temporary organization on every ques tion, that it had In any way affected the result, to give the Wilson side the case. It could not so bo shown. Several attompts wore made to agree on a sevonlh man, but no such agree ment could bo reached. This brief account does not purport to bo a full and complete one of tho threo days sittings of tho Conference Committee on Credentials, but covoi'S all tho important points. The deliber ations of tills committee, who for a time hold in hand tho destinies of the democratic party of Arizona, should be tho property of ovory voter in tho ter ritory. The Smith ""men propose to make a full uccount of the evidence submitted a campaign document if necessary. This is no criticism of the three gen tlemen who were appointed ou tho committee by the Wilson faction Thoy voio each gonial, honest and falrminded. But thoj of necessity saw everything fioin a diftoient point of view fioin the Smith men and realized that ary concession meant the nomina tion of Smith. They weie simply faithfu to the trust imposed on them, and loyal to the constituents who in structed them. EVENING, SEPTEMBEK 18, GALVESTON TO BE BUILT Again on the Present Site. NOT EASY TO MOVE A CITY Large Sums Have Been Spent In Jetties-New Orleans Benefited. Nbw York, Sept. 18. Railroad men in this city have been discussing with great interest the possibility that Gal veston may be rebuilt on a different site, less liable to the onslaughts of the Gulf of Mexico than the flat Island which has twice been denuded by wind and wave. It was rumored that the Southern Pacific company would head a move ment to build the city on a spot forty miles southwest of its present location, at the mouth of the Brazos river. But representatives of the railway systems which connected Galveston with the outside world before the occurrence of the present disaster say that her resi dents will rebuild on the same sand island in spite of their terrible experi ences. They believe that Galveston, injured financially though her citizens have been, will be rebuilt by her cit izens without the aid of outside cap ital. Charles H. Tweed, chairman of the Southern Pacific board of directors, said: "Galveston is a wealthy town, one of the wealthiest in the south, and, when it comes to a question of replacing the city, T believe that the resources of her own citizens will be found quite ade quate. The town, in ray opinion, will not be reconstructed at the mouth of the Brazos. It'is uot an easy matter to move a citv." "In considering the question of a re moval of site," said President Rouse of tho Missouri, Kansas and Texas, "It should be borne in injnd that Galveston has spent more than $7,000,000 in build ing jetties to Improve Us harbor. Tt hi true that higher and better land exists at the mouth of the Brazos, but it is uot likely that the residents of Galves ton will want to turn to a new harbor after the great expenditure which has been made on their own." Assistant Secretary H. B. Henson, of the International and Great Northern railroad, said he thought the residents )f Galveston would endeavor to reclaim their losses ou their own territory lather than turn to a new site. "But I believe," he added, "that this storm has so shaken confidence in the piesent site of the city that the result may be the growth of coast towns Which are more safely situated than Galveston, to the disadvantage of the latter. This calamity should indirectly be of benefit to New Orleans." THE NAC0 CELEBRATION. Our Neighbors are Patriotic, Hospita ble and friendly. On Sunday the celebration at Naco, the proceedings were of a most pleas ing character. The Moxican band, so well known here as comprising excel lent musicians, went down to Naco and serenaded the popular and genial Mex ican consul, Max Gavito, at his new office, which he opened last s-aturday. The band played some beautiful and patriotic airs. Then the musicians came over to the American side, and at the American office played the Mexican national an them and the Star Spangled Bauner. Mr. Daniels addressed the band and spectators and introduced Mr. Max Gavito, who spoke eloquently, referr ing to the good feeling that always ex isted between the people of tho Mexi can and American republics fon each side the border at Naco. He hoped that the good feeling and alliance be tween those citizens add neighbors would be continued and be cemented by friendly Intercourse and commer cial dealing. At the conclusion of Mr. Gavlto's io marks, which Invoked a lound of en thusiastic applause, a barrel of beer was lapped and hearty health-drinking took place. A most successful dance was given, the loom being ciowded while the music tvas really excellent. Kveiy kind of refreshment was served'. un auuuay eeiung at me uoine oi Mr. Garcia a big dance was given, which was participated In by the pie and officials from both sides. Mu- 1900. sic by the band was a feature, andi a more successful affair would be difficult to imagine On Saturday evening theie were speeches on the Mexican side by prom inent men. Among the striking incidents was tho waiving together of the Mexican and American Hags. This ceromony was the occasion of great applause, aud wa suggestive of the amity existing be tween the two countries. The utmost good feeling and orderli ness prevailed throughout, and the cit izens vied with each other in extend ing, the warmest hospitality to the numbers of guests from all points around. Ingenious Inventor. An ingenious Austrian Inventor has just patented a speaking clock, which be claims will be of the greatest value to persons of forgetful and irregular habits. It consists of a clock-phonograph combination. In place of the usual striking attachment is a phono graph, which can be set to speak a sen tence at any time desired, thus becom ing an unfailing reminder to its owner of the duties of each, successive hour. There Is no mechanical difficulty in the way of charging this moral time piece with any number of dally exhor tations. It can be setsto speak once or a dozen times, and may be trusted never to forget Its message so long as the clock is duly wound up. TO REPLACE AMERICAN TROOPS. Native Filipinos Being Tried With a View to Guarding Islands. Manila, Sept. 18. As the time ap proaches for the volunteers to leave these islands and return to the United States In order that all may be mus tered out there by June 30 of next year, the question of how to replace the de parting troops has brought the matter of an armed native militia to general notice. For more than a year there has been in the service of the United States a detachment of native Maca bebe scouts, and their work has in the main beon satisfactory. It Is argued that other native fighting organizations an be used with as good a result as the Macabebes... especially if the au thorities take advantage of existing tribal hatreds and jealousies in select ing native BoJdlery to operate against the Tagalogs. In many of the village garrisons throughout the Islands native inhabit ants are being employed as a local po lice force to protect their own villages against depredation and attack from robbers and other malefactors. These local police are in some cases given firearms and uniforms, and they have at times done effective work in tho lim ited field of action allowed them. They have also' been used in operations against the insurgents, both in Luzon and in the southern islands. In Levte they dldv good work two months ago, wheu they helped eight American sol diers to repel a persistent insurgent attack upon the town, and two weeks ago, near Lipa, twenty native police men went out alone against forty insur gents, scattered the enemv, killing one, and returned proudly to their town with two of their uumber wounded. Th Oake sad thu Dean. The late Prebendnry Rogers used to telik how Lord Kosebery joined him in petitioning the duk of Welling ton to open Apsley house ou Sunday afternoons, so that the public might see the pictures. The duke and Mr. Rogers met In the park, and began to speak about the memorial. "Among all thebe signatures," Bald the duke, "I find only one respectable name, and that is your own." Mr. Rogers Replied that Dean Stanley had signed. "Oh," sad the duke, "I don't call hlmreapeeta ble." "JVell, but there is Lord Rose bery." "I don't think much of him," answered the duke;'"b'ut as you assure me it is all right, I will see whnt can be done." It was finally agreed that vis itors should be admitted, on condition that they wiped their feet on the mats and did not sit down on the sofas. Westminster Gazette.

There is a klied at the back of the main building into which an entrance must be made before the back door to the store could lio forced. Tills shed door was smashed In at at the top and was opened. 'One of the panels of the store door was broken, but fortunately a heavy bar was drawn across the door, and the unexpected obstruction baffled tho rob bers.

THE FACTS AND FIGURES Of the Great Strike Enor mous Losses Are En tailed. Sobanton, Pa., Sept 18. The tie-up occasioned by the strike of the coal miners is complete, the employes of tho various railroads having today an nounced their intention of refusing to handle whatever coal n ay be produced by the non-union miners This move, while by no means a surprise to the mine owners, is astonishing iu its ex tent and effects. While a majority of the railway employes were known to be in sympathy with the strikers, it was not thought that a complete tie-up could be effected. However, the day's events have opened the eyes of the op erators to the fact that if they propose to work the mines with non-union men they must also procure an entirely new force of train hands. The Hrat signs of violence wore noted this morning, and whilenothingserious resulted therefrom, the feeling of ap prehension has deepened considerably. The feeling on both sides is intense and it is believed the strike will be one of the bltteiest In he history of the country. The following figures as to the num ber of men Involved in the strike and' the wages received were furnished by the executive board of the United Mine Workers of 'America, now In session In Indianapolis ; Number of men in anthracite mines Number belonging to unions Number that will go out Number of persons depiived of income 149,000 K14.000 U9.000 500.OGO Union funds ou hands S4"0,000 00 Average daily wages leceived by miners . . 1.35 Average wages of day men at mines .... .90 Daily loss in wages. 100,880 00 In tho mines in the Lackawanna and Wyoming valley districts 80,IK)0 men andbo: are employed. Of t lies-.",0.-000 are distributed through the work ings lying lelween Pittston, in Luzerne county, and Forest City, in Susque hanna county. There are 25,000 em ployed In the mines in the vicinity of Wllkesbarre, Ashley. Nantlcoke, Ply mouth and Wanamlt; 15,000 about II u zleton, 20,000 at Mahony City and Shenandoah, aud 23,000 around 31m mokln, Pottsvllle aud Mount Carmel. The closing of the tnlnes is expected to reduce the regular coal production 75 per cent, leaving free only the Read ing Coal and Iron Company'-, produc tion of 20.5 per cent of the total output of the reglou, and 6.05 per cent of the Lehigh valley's production. In their demands the miners ask the correction of many evils, the more im portant of which are the followidg: Abolition of the company stores; re duction iu the price of powder to $1 50 a keg; abolition of company doctors; semi-monthly payment of wages; abol ition ot the sliding scale; wages paid in cash; 2210 pounds to the tou; 91.60 and not exceeding $1.75 a day; thut an ad vance of 20 per cent, in wages le s than , 91.50 per day. SISPECTED OF A PLOT TO. KILL. Alleged Anarchist Found to Have Portraits of Two Rulers. Paws, Sept. 18. The latest police reports concerning the arrest of the alleged Swiss anarchist, Walter, at San Sebastian, make no mention of the an archist's rumored plot against Presi dent Loubet, suspected from the fact thut the portraits of the emperor of Austria and president of France were found together in the man's effects, to gether with newspaper cuttings con cerning Lunbet's sojourn at Rambou lllet.
