Aug. 11. representative of the Associated Press visited the guard camp at Krasnoye-Selo today and ascertained that, though several arrests had been made, responsibility ifor the shots--flred at Grand Duke Nicholas had not definlte-ly'been brought home to any particular culprits. vIt -was only after a long investigation that it was determined that ball cartridges -were fired by the first battalion of sharp-shooters, one of the elite corps of the Russian army. Suspicion was directed toward "one year volunteers," recruits who, in consideration of their educational quallfl-, cations and social position, escape with only one year Instead of four years service.

Many of these, men are ex-students at the and are the principal spreaders orthe rev-, olutionary propaganda among the 'troops. -Officers of the regiments concerned are extremely reticent concerning the! affair, but from a member 01 tne Grand Ducal escort the Associated learned that the incident during a movement tof the Is-mailovsky regiment. Grand Duke Nicholas was sitting on- a charger and observing the maneuvers from the top hf an entrenchment The troops were advancing by short rushes in open order across a wide, level field, firing blank volleys by squads as they came. A few yards behind the grand duke was his suite, including General Za-rubaeff, second in command of the guard corps, adjutants and orderlies, and several civilians, including the -Countess Nlrod. Suddenly when the first echelen Jl the attacking force, consisting of sharp-shooters, was from -iOOto oOO vards distant, a bullet sang high overhead, followed by another and still another.

The cry was raised, le firing "ball!" and the group was thrown into great confusion. After frantic signaling firing" was sounded, the shots continued for some time. brand Duke Nicholas remarked when he Joined his suite: "It would be more realistic if the troops always fired ball during maneuvers, but this is unpardonable negligence." The attack on the position held by regiment was immediately stopped. The troops were marched to their quarters and an investigation was begun. How the conspirators obtained ball cartridges has DUKE not been ascertained, as uie aum.uu.-tion is always called in after the men return from patrol duty: but It is conjectured that the cartridges were secured after the dissolution of parliament, when ths supplies of service ammunition was issued in antlcipa- tions-pt trouble, and 'that -troops -succeeded in holding them out.

An eighth of a mile from the finish, tho Argonauts were leading the New Yorkers by half a length.

It was marked today by the extraordinary Incident when the jury, against the wish of the judge. insisted on hearing Townsends testi mony in secret, even refusing the re quest of the Marcioness for permission to be present.

Timmons, a mem ber during the last term of the territorial assembly of Arizona, whose wife is a Veil-known clubwoman, living in Los Angeles with her children. The horsewhip, which was wielded on the streets of Yuma, was in the strong hand of Mrs. Charles Meadows, wife of one of the wealthiest men In Yuma. Meadows stood by with a gun leveled at the prostrate legislator, while his wife punished him. The affair is the culmination of a family feud.

Timmons, is the attorney for Mrs sister, Mrs. Eddie Frankyl. who was until recently a widow named Mrs. Pippin, and a Yu ma milliner. The two sisters have been enemies for months, the quarrel arising from troubles over ranch land owned jointly by the women, each of whom has married a prominent Arizo-nan.

Mrs. Frankyl, who is a bride of but a few months, retained Timmons, the rich politician, whose wife has moved to Los Angeles to educate her children. Proceedings had already begun against the Meadows, and were, directed especially against Mrs. Meadows, who is a leader of Yuma society. The assault has been preceded by- many threats and was witnessed by several Yuma citizens, who did not venture to interfere.

Timmons was approached from the front by Mr. and Mrs. Meadows, and the latter, who is a strong, athletic woman, announced she wat going to punish him. The lawyer attempted to resist and the angry woman's, husband drew his re volver and the unlucky Timmons sub mitted to his thrashing with forced meekness. Meadows is known throughout the Southwest as "Arizona Charlie." He himbelf signed that title to a book he wrote and published recently on an- exciting surveying trip he made to the Tiburon Islands, in the Gulf of California.

He is a surveyor, author. mine owner, politician, and only re-oentlv the creator of a boulevard system for the city of Yuma. STROKE OF APOPt-EXY-.

WOMAN NEWGANS MARE -A BET INSURGENTS GO DOWN TO DEFEAT Republican Political Machine Was Well Oiled and Operated Beautifully Under the Hands of "Boss" Cassidy.

FREE FOR ALL NARROWLY AVERTED Chairman McReynolds Was Scored by Recalcitrants, Who Howled for Resignation But Were Shy Ten Votes. If the meeting of the Republican Central Committee, held in the par lors of the Copper Queen hotel yesterday, was Intended for the purpose of effecting harmony between the opposing factions who have been mak ing charges and counter-charges against each jther, orally and in writing, for the past four weeks, the meeting utterly failed of Its purpose. After tha committee bad finished its labors and, was ready to adjourn and Republicans, not members of the committee, were called on for a few brief and pertinent remarks, the bitterness that was concealed In each individual breast was manifested and the lie freely passed. The "machine" was In absolute control and the first test vote upon the adoption of the minutes of the July meeting of the committee showed that the Cassidy-McReynolds-BlairJ faction of the party was in power bs a- vote of 25 to 1C. In vain did Shill- Ian and Crowley, supported by FoI sora, plead with the bosses to showl some respect for the wishes and de-3 sires of the minority; but they plead- ed in vain.

Cassidy sat to the left of the Chairman and dictated every move that was made. He presented all of the resolutions, moved their adoption, seconded by Blair, and the roll call showed that tho regulars had their forces well organized and wero there to do business regardless of the consequences. Only once did the "boss" relent and that was upon his own motion to bind the delegates to the territorial convention by the, unit rule. To show that he be magnanimous in the hour of victory Ccssidy relented at the last minu'e and withdrew his motion. The opposition of the insurgents centered against McReynolds lor Chairman.

When the speech making commenced he was sharply criticised for the part he took In the meetinc held secretly at the Copper Queen hotel on the night of July 3. Tiat he was not the man for the place was freely expressed by both members of the committee, and the speakers for the Republican party, who were given tne privilege of the floor. Mavor Caven, C. A.

P. Mc-Nair were all mentioned for the nlar. McReynolds was charged with being a ueraocrat only a few short years ago; it was intimated that he did not support the city Republican ticket last spring, and he was made the subject of a scathing political arraignment, until goaded to desperation, he Jumped to his feet just before the close of the meeting and denounced such statements of non-support to the ticket as an unqualified LIE. As a resultof the meeting, dominated and controlled completely by Cassidy, the Republcan County Convention Is 'to be held In Bisbee some time In September, the exact date to be fixed by the Board of Supervisors. Tom Tale was elected secretary of the committee.

A committee consisting of M. E. Cassady, James Blair and Gus Barron will select the delegates to the Territorial Convention which meets In BIsbee on September C. and the arrangements for holding the primary elections and the convention wa? left in the hands of the executive committee.
