Mr. Austin visit ed the cotton, woolen, worsted, silk, fibre, carpet, print goods, rubber, boot and shoe, hat, pottery and watch and clock manufacturing establishments, and in no case did he find a lack of orders for the manufacturers or of employment for men and women de siring employment.

William nontgomery, Brother of Miss Alice riontgomery, of Emporium, Killed by Indians In Arizona. Phoenix (Arizona) Republican, Nov. 16. FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Nov. 12.— The news reached here at an early hour this morning of a sanguinary conflict between Navajo Indians and a sheriff's posse at a point thirty-five miles south east of Flagstaff. Five out of six In dians were killed and one member of the Sheriff's posse, Will 11. Montgom ery, was shot through the heart. Two other deputy sheriffs were wounded, one perhaps fatally. The cause of the fight was an attempt 011 the part of the posse to arrest the Indians for mal treating Montgomery, who worked as a cowboy for the Roden ranch. The sheriff's posse consisted of Dan Hogan, Will Montgomery, Bill Ronen, a well known cattleman, and Durham. They left here on Thursday armed with Winchesters and six-shooters and carrying warrants for the arrest of the Indians. At six o'clocx last evening the posse surprised six of the Indians near Walnut and not anticipating any serious resistance, the officers dis mounted from their horses, leaving the Winchesters strapped to the sad dles and walked towards the Indians. The latter opened fire upon the posse from the brush. The horses stampeded at the first volley and at the same in stant Montgomery fell. The deputies, undismayed, returned the fire of the Indians with their six-shooters until their ammunition was exhausted, when they were compelled to retreat. Roden was shot through the groin, but walked to Angel, a station on the Santa Fe Pacific railroad, being sup ported by Durham, a member of the posse, who was uninjured. Dan Hogan was shot three times—once in the right arm, another a flesh wound over the heart, and the third time in the back. He walked to Walnut. Hogan's wounds are in the fleshy parts and will not result seriously. Roden is in a bad state, however, and is being given the best possible medical attendance. The Indians engaged in the fight were hunting deer in violation of the game law and a ton of dried venison and antelope was found to-day in their camp. A report from Canyon Diablo this morning was to the effect that all the Navajoes in that vicinity had left for the reservation. Deputy Sheriff Dan Hogan was a member of Troop A of Roosevelt's Rough Riders and served through the Santiago campaign. Deputy Durham was the only one who escaped unhurt. Sheriff Johnson and posse left to-day for the scene of the fight. CAUSE OF TROUBLE. (By Associated Press.) FLAGSTAFF, NOV. 12.—One white man and five Navajo Indians killed, two whites and Navajo Indian wounded was the result of an attempt of a dep uty sheriff to arrest a Navajoe yester- i day, ten miles south of Walnut and thirty-five miles southeast of Flagstaff. On November 6 a band of Navajoes who were hunting on Canyon Padre below Anderson Rim, in this county, held up William Montgomery, a cow boy in the employ of William Raden, a cattleman. They accused him of steal ing horses and threatened to kill him. He came to Flagstaff and obtained a warrant for their arrest and with Deputy Hogan on Thursday left to make the arrest. At Roden's camp they were joined by William Roden and Walter Durham, who went along to show the deputy where the Navajoes were camped. Arriving at the camp the party dis mounted and anticipating no trouble Hogan attempted to execute the war rant and entered a brush coral where four Navajoes were, when the Indians made resistance and a shot was fired at Hogan, striking him in the back, he at the time being in a tussle with one Navajo who was trying to shoot him, Hogan drew his pistol and killed his antagonist. The fight became general and ended when the ammunition of the white men was exhausted. Short as had been the affray five of the Navajoes were dead and one wounded. Montgomery was shot through the heart. Hogan was wounded three times, all flesh wounds. Roden was wounded seriously in the groin. Dur ham escaped uninjured. Governor Murphy received the first news of the fight between a band of Navajo Indians and a sheriff's posse near Flagstaff, on Saturday night, his informant being E. S. Clark, district attorney of Coconino county. Late yesterday afternoon he received a second telegram from Dan Hogan, a member of the posse. In both instances the governor replied, urging that the situation be not exaggerated by the people of Flagstaff and that they act with coolness and good judgment. The governor loft on the north bound train last night for the scene of the trouble. E. M. Montgomery, father of Will Montgomery, who is reported killed, was a passenger on the same train with Governor Murphy. Mr. Mont gomery has been employed for years by the S. F. P. & P. railroad in this city and is now occupying the position of chief car repairer. He was not with- ! out hope that the first reports may I prove incorrect and that his son be still alive, although, it may be, seri ously wounded. Mr. Montgomery 5 said last evening just before the train left: "I received a telegram early this morning to use the language of the 3 message, that Will Montgomery is » supposed to be killed by the Indians, t The news was a sad shock to me, as i you may imagine, and I was left with out hope. Late this afternoon I re ceived another telegram stating that 112 nothing certain will be known until . the posse returns. lam in hopes, , therefore that Will is yet alive and has a lighting chance to recover. . "My son is only 19 years old, but , weighs 190 pounds and is as straight , as an arrow. lie is absolutely fearless. ; lie has worked at the Roden cattle ranch for several years past. The ranch has been managed by Billy Roden, who succeeded his father, now deceased, in the management of the business. Will had intended coming to Phoenix about the first of the month on a visit. He has served on sheriff's posses several times previous to this occasion." Miss Alice Montgomery, who for several years has made her home with our townsman, Mr. B. W. Green, an uncle, received the above sad intelli gence, a few days ago, of the death of her brother. The young lady's many friends deeply sympathise with her in her severe loss. Up to Monday no information had been received confirming a report that the body had been recovered. LATER. —The remains of young Mont gomery were recovered and taken to Flagstaff last Thursday for burial. His .Life Was Saved. Mr. J. E. Lily, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling of it he says : "1 was taken with typhoid fever that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn't even sit up in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of Consumption, when 1 heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. I continued to use it and now am well and strong. I can't say too much in its praise."
