provinces became more alarming. l. was stated that in a number of places the police had been unable to cope with the populace and troops had been called upon to restore order. The sol diers, however, appear to have been helpless and in several places the crowds were fired upon.
 At Milan the troops, after vainly trying to disperse the mob, were obliged to fire. One man was killed and several wounded. This increased the excitement. The troops were stoned and had to clear the public square at the point of the bayonet.
 Dispatches from Venice say last night crowd assembled at Plaza St. Mark and speeches were made con- demning the manner in which the Abyssinian campaign had been con- ducted and calling upon the military authorities to try General Baratiri by court martial There was another popular demonstration against the government this morning and the mob was only dispersed by the police with the greatest difficulty after a number of arrests had been made.
 At Padua the mob marched through the streets hooting the government officials and crying for the downfall of the Crispi ministers.
 At Verona there was a similar dem onstration.
 It is believed nothing short of the downfall of Signor Crispi and the dis patch of strong endorsements to Af- rica will satisfy the public c,amor.
 Shortly before noon it was an nounced that General Baratiri had been recalled to Rome and his con- duct in the present campaign and de- feat at Adowa will be inquired into. The Socialists declare that the general should be shot as an example to oth- CTS and that the minister of war should share his fate.
 The army reserves of 1892, number ing about S0,000, are being called to the standard, but it is feared there will be serious rioting when the men mus ter in large bodies.
 News of the death of Generals Al berton and Dabormida has been con- f1rmed. It is believed over 800 other Italian officers of lesser rank have been slain.

4 GREAT MORTGAGE BOND Two Million Dollars In-
 volved. Plans of the Rio Verde Canal
 Company.
How Vast Area of Valley Land Is Soon to Be lrri-
 gated

Late yesterday afternoon mortgage trust deed was filed in the office of the county recorder wherein the Rio Verde Canal company conveys without reser- vation to the Minneapolis Trust com pany, trustee, the whole of the prop erty of the canal company in Maricopa county. The mortgage is for the pur- pose of securing the payment of bonds to the amount of $2,4O0,O00, the pro- ceeds of the same to be used in the construction of the canal, and in the erection of dams for diversion and storage purposes The bonds are in denomination of $1 900 each, run for twenty years and bear interest at the rate of five per cent per annum, inter est payable at the offices of the trust company, Minneapolis, Minn., in Lon- don, England, or in Amsterdam, Hol- land The instrument is signed on behalf of the Rio Verde by the com panys president, A. c. Sheldon, and the secretary, I. K. Doolittle.
 This document is regarded as an earnest of active work by the com pany, as the announcement is made that the entire issue of bonds has been placed in Europe at favorable terms. Added to the incoNe from the bonds is to be counted< that from the water rights, which will, from sales already made, amount to s1,2O0,000, payable over a long term of years.
 The work of construction has been carried on continuously since April last by the Minnesota and Arizona Construction company under the su- perintendence of Samuel R. H. Rob- inson This construction company is composed; of the members of the firms of Langdon, Linton & Co.,, of Minne apolis, Minnesota, and Donald Grant & Go. of Faribault, Minnesota.
 Over fifteen miles of the main canal l is completed and the work is now be- ing carried on with increased force.
 The seven hundred foot tunnel at the Horse Shoe dam on the Verde river is nearly completed, and work thereon is being pushed by double shifts night and day at both ends This tunnel is designed to carry the draw-off conduirts for reservoir water service, but will be temporarily used to carry the stream during the con- struction of the dam foundation The dam construction will be pushed as soon as the tunnel is completed and the seasons flood is over.
 I A comprehensive system for the | general development of the great area to be irrigated and reclaimed by the works is well advanced; it provides for connecting the whole irrigable area by a system of railroad or motor lines win existing railroads in the city os Phoenix so as to bring all parts of the valley into easy and direct access with the metropolis and into close connec- ton with present lines of transporta- ton.
 On initial construction the company will contro, over coco net horse power from the falls or drops in the canal line, and this wi,l be augmented on subsequent enlargement. The conver- sion of this water power into electric power and its distribution and appli- cation ito the needs of a dense popula- tion will be provided for at an early date.

HUMBER'rS AFRICAN WAR Thousands of Italians
 Are Slain. Wild Public Clamor Against
 Crispi. Excited Mobs Parade the Streets of the Main Italian
 Cites.

ROME. March 4-The greatest ex- citement prevails in this city over the news from Abyssinia. Troops are un- der arms in their barracks and in readiness to occupy the streets in an- ticipation of disorder.
 The government has decided to send further endorsements of 10000 troops to Abyssinia immediately.
 The kingdom is in a condition of ex- citement, grief and anger almost be- yond description.
 Every dispatch from Massowa adds to the gravity of the disaster to the Italian army in Abyssinia. When the first news of General Baratiri's defeat reached this city report had it that only 500 men were killed, then yester- day afternoon the numbers ran up to 5000 killed with sixty pieces of artil- lery captured.
 This mornings dispatches place the number of killed in battle and the long, harassing retreat which followed at 5,000 It is believed that not even these figures tell the full ex tent of the disaster. No mention is made of the wounded and there is good reason, based on the stories of recent Italian defeats by the Abyssinians to believe that all those who fell wounded during the retreat of over fifty miles met a more horrible fate than those killed on the spot.
 Throughout the night the garrison here was kept under arms and mount ed patrols traversed the principal streets. The streets were filled with people until daybreak and after early morning every public place was crowd ed with excited men and women. Sev. eral disturbances which called for DO lice interference occurred during the day and the indications are that the people are assuming a most threaten ing attitude not only in Rome, bu throughout Italy.
 Demonstrations against Crispis ministry and even against the crowT are reported from the provinces il spite of the fact that the anthoritie; are straining every nerve to suppres! all alarming news.
