Associated Press Dli patches. Si'kingkikld, March 29. Tlio Church ol God in this city is torn up over a row which took plnco last night within the holy walla of the church, resulting In pandemonium and a knockdown between two of tho uretherr. Thoro havo been two factions in tho church for about two years, growing out of the removal of Brother Baker, who wa pastor of tho church. The church was founded by Mrs.

Maria Woodworth, tho famous faith-cure ovangelist, and she camo hero from Ohio, and arrived List night, to heal over the old sores. Brother John Darrnh, who ha3 been tho leader of tho flock since liTolfiei Baker was bounced, has been conduct ing a revival for some timo past, meeting with marked succcsi. last evening Mrs. Woodworth went to tho church, accompanied by some of tho faithful, and at onco opened services. Mrs.

Woodworth evidently anticipated trouble, ns she took tho precaution to take throo policemen with her. A littlo later Brother iHrrnh arrived and found the church in thn hands of tho enemy, with Brother Baker loading in prayer. After fomo more praying and singing Mrs. Woodworth arose and denounced Brother and his followers as a set of vipers and hypocrites, saying that alio had doubted their conversion all along and that thero must henceforth be harmony In the Hock. Brother Darrah lumps 1 to his feet in a great rage and began to denounco Mrs.

Woodworth and the latter called upon tho police to out Durran out. Some of tho members interceded and Darran proceeded with liia talk, hut Mm. Woodworth drowned him out with a song. A general quarrel then followed ami tlio police were ii-I033 in their attempts to restore order. Deacon John J.

Marshall nnd Brother Bill Grafton then got into trouble and Grafton Btruck Marshal over tho head with a cane. Several blows were exchanged, and then ttie police interfered and stopped tho fight. Mrs. Woodworth then announced tho doxology, and tho meeting closed. AuttiMllun Hillot it ill.

Austin, Texas, March 29 The gravo and reverend amused themselves today toying with the pompadour of Senator Pope.s Australian ballot bill and it looks now as if they would put in several more days with this measure before they get through with it. Tho fact is tho Senators aro very leisurely in their movements. It is true that tho extra session is half gone and they hvo done nothing but elect a senator, air their eloquonco on tho silver ghost bill, but this does not prevont them from making hasto elowly. While the Popo election bill was under csnsideration today Senator Carter succeeded in getting in two amendments which tlio bill's author bad no serious objection to tacked on to it. Tho first nmendmont provides for tho requiring of an aliol to tlio his declaration of entention to vote six months he-lore tho day of tho election.

Tlio other amendments provides that where tho alien has filed his declaration at a time fliitficient to get his final papers before tho election ho shall not be allowed to voto until ho nets his final papers. Sonator Stephens did not exactly know whether it was tho proper thing or not to adopt those amendments, but ho did not oppose thein to any great extent, and neither did the other senator. The bill is balleved to hj ono oi con-soderable merit and It ii tho ironor.tl understanding that it will go through with a whoop after it has boon patched up a littlo more. Somo twclvo or fifteen sections hive boon agreed no up to tlio prosent writing. Tho main features of tho measure have already been recited in Tho News.

The time limited by law for tho filing of declarations in tho case of writs returnable at tho April term of tho supremo court oxpired Wednesday. Among the writs! which wero inado returnable was that brought by Colonel Daniel It.

Ballon of this city against John II. Conrad of Montana. Tho writ was issued on tlio ground of alleged libol and the damages wero laid at $100,000. The alleged libel was based upon certain alleged utterances of Mr. Conrad which reflected upon tho professional actions of Colonel Ballon, in connection with tho estnto of Mrs.

Josephine Darn-aby while engaged as counsel for Mr. Graves. Tho declaration in llio action was not filed nnd this failure to not tilo tho declaration precludes tho trirl ot tho case at the next term of tho court. Colonel Ballon and Colonel Cyrus Van Slyck wore both interviewed yesterday In regard to tho matter nnd both refused to iv anything about tlio case. John Conrad loft this city last evening for Now York, nnd will "go to Montana to attend to privato business.

Ballou himself." Referring to tho filing of tho abstract of record in the Graves case initio supremo court in Denver Mr. Conrad said- "I see that tho Denver papers are agitating the fact t'lit I have not employed counsel to appear before tho supreme court in Denver in tho matter oi granting Gravei a now trial. I wish to t-tato that I have not employed couhmcI to nrgoo to tho rulings of Judge Kising, nor will I under any circumstances employ counsel for that purpose. Hon. Joo'eph II.

Besides, whatever money I havo left I hopo to spend on those who attempted to defraud airs, narnany. Tho cons piacv will receive my closest nttention." TO TKST Till! A lilll for Manufacturing Liquor, In Iowa That a Parly Iteco rd May he Made on. Deb Moikkm, March 29. Senator Yoemans todav introduced a bill in the senate to legalizotho manufacture of alcoholic liquors in Iown for sale 'vithin the state for purpose now specified by law and for export from tho stato.

Senator Yoemans is a Democrat nnd he proposes now that thero is no prospect of any modification of tlio prohibitory law as to tho tale, to put Republicans on record as to tho question of manufacture. Enormous quantities of alcoholic liquors aro now shipped into the tate and it is contended by a great many Republicans that it is not good business sense to discriminate against our own industries onco engaged in their mancfacture. Tho bill will certainly pass the senate by something more' than party majority, and it may paB the house. In any event the Republicans will compelled to go on record for or against it. Tho home passed the Australian ballot bill just as it went through tho senate.

It will now go to the governor for signature, ano tlio next election will be conducted under its provisions. MO T11K IIANICKH Poor Depositor Will lie HutUHert With Nothing Hut C'nuh.

Victim of Disappointed in Gaining tlio Affec tions of tho Hired Man Who Loved tho Girl. Associated Press Dispatches. Charleston, W. March 29 Marion S. Mooro, a beautiful young woman of thirty years of age, was arrested hero last night for ono of the most horrible crimes on record.

Mrs. Mooro was married when she was sixtcon. Her oldest child was a handsome girl of thirteen. Two weeks ago tlio child was found murdered in tho house, her throat having been cut from oar to ear with razor. All the family wero absent at tho time.

Mrs. Moore claimed that as sho was returning homo sho saw a woman named Eliza Hackney leaving tlio bouse, and on her evidenco tlio Hnckney woman was arrested, charged with tho crime. Tlio evidence failed entirely to connect her with tho crime nnd today she was discharged. In the meantime evidenco has been secured showing that Mrs. Mooro was blindly infatuated with James Semplo, hired man in her husband's employ.

The man apparently paid no nttention to her ndvances, but had repeatedly asked Mooro to bo allowed to marry the daughter, Bettie, and paid tier assiduous attention. All tho evidenco tends to show that Mrs. Mooro, in her furious jealousy, took tho opportunity to. kill her own child in tho most horr'iblo manner possible. Tho facts of tlio case and her efforts to throw suspicion on tho Hackney woman have caused intense excitement.

Tlio ollicorfl confidently expect that Mrs. Mooro will break down and mako confession. A HltUTAI. ATTACK. Mis Sndle Lyiaiiglit: Knocked Down by Vniinc Negro, Who Kscapcd.

GREAT BRAVERY" EXHIBITED. Is tho Jigidier lirintllo a Dago or Coyote Truo Story of One of Doc Helm's A Tale Many Adventures With a Moral. The Republican does not mako arulo of rushing into print over its personal matter, but the gross exaggeration in tho Herald nnd Gazette, concerning what tho evening journal was pleased to facetiously term a littlo mntineo nt this office, compels tho paper to publish the truo version of tlio episode. Between 12 and 1 o'clock Monday afternoon, Doctor Scott Holm, who obtained considerable notoriety in the abortion case of Mrs. Alice Whito, Ed S.

Gill at present adjutant general of tho militia, and Ed. Eunis, a freighter by trade, called at tin: Republican ollico. Helm was armed with dude's walking cano and a Gill carried a dag ger, Ennis was not armed, accoiding to Ins own statement. Messrs. Wolflov, Robinson, Mills and Vail wero in at tho timo.

Helm imme diately inquired for ttie authority for the publication in Sunday's ltin-unucAN, entitled "A bad Case." Ho was told by Mr. Vail that the authority could not bo given, but thai thocaso was being thor oughly investigated, nnd tho result would bo published lit the next issue. Helm then, in a very gentlemanly manner, (Helm always does things in r. gentlemanly way) called Mr. Vail a dam liar, llio compliment was returned with compound interest; whereupon Helm raise'd his stick and struck at Vail, making a mibcairingo; and immediately reached for his littlo "gun." Mr.

Vail, however, had anticipated his intentions, and Helm was forced to back up against tlio wall. Ennis then stopped in to save Helm's person from being damaged. During this littlo scone, Gill, head of tho militiu, and principal peace officer, was crawling along tho bido of thu counter like a dago, knife in hand, with tho probable idea of shoving it into Vail's back. In this, however, ho was disappointed sorely, and the trio, who walked in with the expressed intention of doing the office up, walked out again and glad of tho privilege. The likene-s ol the Adjutant General slipping along like a dago or coyote with a knife to strike a ir.au in tho back should have been preserved by a Kodak for tho war archives of Arizona.

Such bravery deserves promotion. The suddenness with which tho doctor and his lickspittle decided that they did not want any thing around The Rei'uulican oflice reminds us of an old Kentucky story; Iu old slaver times the Gait house at Louisville, Kentucky, was one of the most famous hotels in the country and everybody of noto, traveling in the wctt, stopped at the unit house to enjoy llio nosimaiiiv oi mu nusi, Thockinorton. Those were famous days for poker nlso, with thousand dollar ante, nnd narry a pair, and one night three distinguished gentlemen occupied tlio poker room, with the host, for a littlo gamo of draw. During the seance ono of tho party, Gen. Jim had occasion to leave the room a lew moments.

It was customary then to travel with a colored body servant, and Gen. Juck-sou's boy was acting as doorkeeper nnd bar tender. During the General's absence his faithful body servant heard somo remarks made by tlio party in tho room derogatory to his master's reputation ns a gentleman, and insulting to the honor of tho family, which ho related to him on his return. Gen. Jackson entered the tho door, put thu key in his breeches pocket, took off his coat and laid it on tho card table, nnd said: "Gentlemen, my servant informs mo that during my nbsonco you made somo remarks derogatory to my character as a gentleman and poker player.

Colonel Jones I will settle this little matter with you first. So ho Bailed into Colonel Jones and soon piled him in one corner ol the room. Then drawing a breatli ho said now Captain McCearty I nm ready to settle this littlo matter with you; so ho soon piled Captain McCearty in another corner of tho room and then taking nn-other long breath ho said now, Major Throckmorton I an ready to settle this little matter with you. Maior Throckmorton had been watch ing the proceedings with great interest, and at this juncture faul "Jim, what is all this row about?" General Jackson repeated tho information of his servant that they hnd accused him with chcuting at cards during his nbsenco from tho room. Major Throckmorton coolly icplied "Well, Jim I did make them remarks, but my mind has undergone a vory sudden chnnge." tltm William.

Gus Williams played Keppler's Fortune last night to tho largest, nudienco that has nssembled in tlio Devercaux onera houte this eeaeon, nnd it is safe to say that everyone was highly enter tamed.

The support was excellent, nnd Mr. Deverenux is to be congratulated for the entertainment for which ho chartered an extra train, that they might catch tho west bound train at Maricopa.

Tlio class of entertainments for tho season havo generally been better than tho average, but Uus Williams undoubtedly takes tho lead. AHOUT UKKT SUOAIt. A Letter from a Prominent Sugar Pertinent to thn Time. Tho following letter was addressed to Col. Poston, by Frank DeCouinck a contractor of sugar plants at San Francisco.

It reads: "To Charles D. Poston, Phoenix, Arizona. Dear Sir: Your favor of the I'Jth. inft. duly received.

Yon took a wise measure by incorporating and it will undoubtedly help tho organization of a cor)oration for introducing the beet sugar industry in your state. Unfortunately without inducements you can not attract capitalists thero; but I havo no doubt that with time, you will mako them, for the sugar market is, I may say boundless; consumption of tho U.
