Washington, D. C, Dec. 7. EniTon Tribune: We had a grand time at the National Irrigation Con gress in Chicago. Hon. Geo. II. Max well was the head center, the oracle, and his influence was felt and ack nowledged by all. There were gover nors and mayors and bank presidents, scientific gentlemen, some of the best brains In the country, and all were unanimous in bringing national irriga tion before the people of the United States and Congress. The subject has come to the front and come to stay. We have found a man to formulate the bill to secure an appropriation for the San Carlos dam from this Congress, and he is at work gathering material and will soon have it iu readiness for the printer. Some unwise movements have been made and have alarmed the friends of the project, but "truth is mighty and must prevail," and any scheme to thwart or hinder the erec tion of that dam will come to naught. Mr. Guy K. Mitchell corresponding secretary of the National Irrigation Association, is a live man a better one for the position it would be hard to find. We have secured (or think we have) two of the ablest men in the Senate, and when the bill is brought before Congress their voices will be heard. Col. J. F. Wilson is stopping at the the Varnum, and I shall have an inter view with him next week. Truly yours, I. T. WlHTTEMORE. James Colquhoun, W. J. Atkinson and Paul Nicholas, connected with the Arizona Copper company at Clifton, passed through Floreoce yesterday noon, on their way to the Kay mines, where it is understood they will make a critical examination of the property for the English owners. They were accompanied by J. N. Curtis, the well known mining man. Mr. Colquhoun is general manager of the Arizona Copper company, and one of the most expert men in his line of business. Upon the report of these gentlemen much will depend. Taos. Winsor, who last year had charge of a party of U. S. Geological surveyors in this county, died at the residence of his parents in Trinidad, Colorado, ou the 2d inst. He had been ill but a few days, death being due to peritonitis. He was born in Devon shire, England, on August II, 1802.

Meredith, who was foreman of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat news room many years ago while the Twbune editor was "slug 19" on that great family journal, has been appointed chief of the bureau of en graving and printing in Washington. A belter man for the position could not be found, as he is thoroughly com petent and will run the Government printing office "on the square." The social given by the Twentieth Century Club Thursday evening at the residence of C. D. Reppy was greatly enjoyed by those who participated. The programme consisted of music, games, recitations, charades, cake walk, etc. The entertainment was in charge of Division 1 of the club, wiih Miss Bogie Bartleson as leader. Coffee and cake were served. Some thirty members attended. VV. Y.

(From the Tucson Citizen.l William Downing wus acquitted of the charge of train robbery at Tomb atone Wednesday night. The jury was out but a short time 'when the verdict was arrived at. The evidence of Stiles and Burts did not have effect in the case because they were both ac complices, and Downing disclaimed any connection with the robbery. There was auother sensation in the trial when Mrs. Downing was placed on the stand. She denied that the horses were. famished by her husband and said that Burts did not deep at her house on the nigh't of September 9. Of the testimony of Mrs, Downing the Prospector says: While much of the evideuce in this case would pale the most vivid detective story, the climax of sensation was reached' when Mrs. Downing and defendant told of a mysterious stranger who sawed wood for them from the 8th to the 10th of Sept., 1899; how Stiles called the stranger out about dark on the 10th and they had never seen him since; how they both recognized the dead man found by Tom Waters and Amos Marion a few miles from Wilcox last winter as the stranger by the shirt found upon him and a blue stud in it, and by a deformed finger and finger nail on the hand of the dead man. De fendant said that Stiles had told de fendant the morning after be called the man out, that "the had been meddling, and he had made him leave town." Defendant spcifically denied each and all of the incriminating state ments attributed to him. When asked if be had ever had any conversation with Stiles, Alvord or Burts about robbing the train either at Cochise or Benson he said he "never thought of such a thing, never dreamed of such a thing." Death of W. H. Norway. Wm. H. Norway while attempting to cross a street in Los Angeles on the 30lh ult. was run over by an electric car and knocked senseless.
