What a Tombstoncr Thinks of
of it.
From Col. Haffotd who returned
yesterday from a trip to Randsburg, a
Paosfkctoe reporter learned that the
new eldorado is a lively camp, typical
of early davr, and every one full of ex
citement. "Kandsburg is oae of the liveliest
mining camps I have teen in many
year," said the Colonel when pretsed
for his views oj the new camp. "Six
stages, four from Mohave, 30 mile
distant, and two from Kyrene, 24
milsj away, come in loadod daily
Every kind of bueiners is represented
and all are doing a rushing business.
Lodging houses are crowded and res-
taurauti are doing well; a variety
theatre is in fall blast. The town is
rapidly building up, five lumber yards
bavingopened up for business. There
are from 160 to 20) tents stulded
about besides the innumerable bouse
already up and in course of construc
tion. About 1200 people are there
and some 150 men are at work."
The only Tombstoners he met were
Geo. Piidham, who is stage agent, and
the Keefs brothers. Tho Colonel
bought a lot on the main street in
Band.burg and will have erected a
building to open up a saloon, expect
ing to leave here again in abont three
weeks when it will be completed.
The camp, he says, has a good
future, ho mines being pronounced
by all tho miners as substantial and
lasting,

a dreadful cold, approaching consump
tion, tried without result everything else

Judge W. H. Barnes of Tucson and
Judge J. H.Hole of Chicago on behalf
or James L. Utter or Oak Hill New
York, and Elizabeth B. Voorheps ol
New York city, the hollers of the Ari
zona Narrow Gutuje Railroad cuni
pany'sbonds, lat Saturday male a
demand on the board cf i-upervHors of
Pinal county for a report to the loan
commission ol the outstanding indebt
edness eo that the loan commissioner
might as they are required by law to
do provide for the redeeming or re
funding of the county indebtedacss.
'ihe Pbenix Republican says:
the supervisors refused to ask the
loan commission for the repot t to
yesterday Messrs. Barnes and Hole
filed another demand as follows:
"That said loan commissioners shall
provide for the redeeming or refund
ing of tho said county indebtedness,
notwithstanding the said board ot su
pervisors have failed to do their duty
as aforesaid, anl shall issus bonds for
said indebtednets in resumption of the
tamo as required by law."
The principal and interest on the
bonds now amount tu $155,000. As
Secretary Bruce is not in the territory
and as he is he is a member of the loan
commission, the demand will not be
acted upon until his rtttirn. It is not
out ot place to mention that tho Ari
zona Narrow Guage railroad has never
been constructed. The Pima county
oonds were iseutd for a like number
of the railroad rompsnV londr, the
seriea running from one to 200, bear
like interest and running lice time.
STORY OF A CRIME.
Two Men Landed in Yuma
on Grave Charges.
Eugene Woodbury and William
Cook, alias A. L. Wright, were jailed
at 1 uma last wees. Woodbury is
charged with the murder of H
Holmes, a prospector, at tho Uhino
bets ranch, on the night of October
2C, 1S93, and Cook is accused ot at-
tern j ting to kill a man who had
kuowUdge of Woodbury's crime.
A synopti f the chapter which is
given in the Yuma Sun from which it
appears that at daybreak on Oclob?r
i7, 1S93, the body of Holmes, an old
aud well known prospector, was found
about one hundred yards from the
Chino railroad depot. Two bullet
holes in his heart and a third in his
left shoulder showed that ho was the.
victim of an assastin. Time paired,
the c lews were all run down and dis
covered to lead to nothing tatigibla.
Iu an ill-lataci moment of contidence
Woodbury bad coufessed to an em
ployee of the Chino company, uatned
Martin Sherry, that he had murdered
Holmes to 00 tain possession of a val
uable mine ilrlmes owned, and asked
Sherry to grub stake him, that he
might go out and work on the mine.
Sherry kept the awful eesret to him
self as he feared it he told it thai be
would be the next victim of the blood
thirsty Woodbury. But Woodbury,
suspicious of his own safety, was not
satisfied with the silence Sherry msin
tained through fear, and coull not
rest confident while Sherry was living
to testify against b:m. It was planned
to put lbs uuforturiite pc-2sscr cf the
fatal secret out of the way.
On the night of thelOtb ef last No
vember Sherry was murderously
assaulted and left for dead. But he
recovered and the failure of the
attempt up)n bis life will probably
mean tbe conviction of Woodbury for
the o Id blioddd murder of Prospector
Holmes.
After the a'patilt, Sherry s Ived th
mysterr of the assassination, if his
story may be txlieve.l, and i;av in for.
matien which will probably nnd an
other man in tbe California peniten
tiary. He said tial the Mo which
knocked him seuaeless was struck by
William Cook, alias A. L. Wright,
