CAM,
FIcKAs,
MORFORD.

The city council met last night and
delivered the goods. So far as the
THE Infamous three-Ganz,
INFAMOUS Morford, and Fiokas-
THREE could do it, they handed
the city over to the ten
der mercies of the Phoenix water
company corporation which sits
in the city's highway of progress
and Ievies a usurer's toll upon
the earnings of every householder
"a corporation which has shamefully
violated it's contracts with the city and
given us a set of rotten water mains
that are a standing invitation to de-
struction of the town by fire-a corpo
ration whose thirty pieces of silver
rang louder in the city hall last night
than the fire bell which the grim sar-
casm of fate called into voice during
the proceedings.
The water company had it's way. The
unanimous mandate of the taxpayers
meeting was scorned. and the orders of
the water company, that the people
should not have an opportunity to vote
on the question of municipal owner
ship of water works. was carried out.
But what of the infamous three who
executed these orders? The voice of
Judas Iscariot when he betrayed our
Lord did not tremble as much as did
read to jeering audience of solid citi-
zens the specious arguments prepared
for him by stronger brain. Were his
flushed face and trembling lips a con-
fession that he had begun to realize
that he, CAM and Morford, had at last
taken the step which made them eter-
nal objects of scorn in a community of
self-respecting men? Perhaps so. 1t
is certainly true that they will find
hereafter that this town knows them
for what they are. Life in smaller
city is not like existence in a metropo-
lis. In a great city it is possible for
public servants to betray the people
and by shifting residence and keeping
quiet regain a circle of more or less
respectful acquaintance, but it is not
so in a smaller city. Therefore the sit
uation has a pathetic side to it for
GAM, Morford and Fickas. They will
find. after the dirty work is all over,
that the rule is invariable-able, I'M
scrupulous men have no use for tools
after they have used those tools, and
accord no pay but contempt. But that
is not the worst of it-how do CAM,
Morford and Fickas like, now, to con-
template the future in another phase?
Il cannot be comforting to them to real
ize that they have deliberately placed
themselves in a public pillory. How
much consolation can they derive from
the thought that their own children
may be told for years to come that their
fathers betrayed the city?
Phoenix will grow, and the people of
Phoenix will yet have t::eir way-nev--
fear-but last nights black record can
not be lived down in all the years to
come by CAM. Morford and Fickas.

DOUBLE HEADERS IN USE.
T exas Division of the Santa Fe is
USING Them as Der Order

The statement was made yesterday
that the Santa Fee Texas division had
not enforced its double header order,
pending the decision to be made on the
showing of the various committees
from the trainmen.
A dispatch from Galveston, however,
says: There seems to be an impression
that the running Of double-header
trains on the Gulf, Colorado and San
ia Fe has been suspended awaiting the
presentation OF the grievance of the
trainmen's organizations to the head
officers of the system at Chicago.
Inquiry was made at headquarters
TODAY concerning the matter. In re-
ply it was stated that the order fog
operating ,double-header trains went
into effect on Oct. IL as per announce
ment, and that sthe company will
handle its trains in that way whenever
it seems advantageous to do 80.

SIDING OPEN
AT FEDORA
Train Thrown Onto the Siding
and Thirteen Cars
Wrecked.
ENGINEER FAIR INJURED
Evidently the Work of a MiSCrednt-
Track Cleared Up-R1gid In
yestiuatiOn to be Made.

A MISPLACED switch was the cause Of
q bad wreck on the G. 81. yesterday
afternoon, when an extra eastbound
freight ran into the siding at Fedora,
seven miles east of Sanderson, wr9ck,
ing two engines and thirteen cars and
breaking Engineer Fsrr's left leg.
The circumstances, of the wreck are
such ss point to deli oerate wreck1ng
of the train, and an investigation will
be made.
The extra was q double-header with
twenty-six cars, loaded and empty, and
WAS due at the siding at 1:2O O'Clock.
Conductor George Buchanan was in
charge: George E. Farr and G. A.
Ramsey were the engineers.
AS the Fedora, was siding
reached, the two engines
swung into the switch instead
of hOldieg the main line, but when the
first car struck the siding 1t jumped
the track, and twelve others followed
In some manner, the engines also were
pulled OFF the track and No. 900 was
partly overturned. The cars were pill
ed up in inextricable confusion.
When the engines were brought to
. standstill, and the crew extricated
from the debris, it was found that en-
gineer Farr had his leg broken; brake
man w. G. Tessdale was badly bruised;
Engineer g. A. Ramsey was badly
bruised about tbe legs; and Fireman N.
SAathOf had his arm slightly bruised.
All these men live at Del Rio whittier
Teasda ale and Ramsey were taken, at
ter their injuries had been dressed by
. doctor hastily summoned from Mara
thon. Engineer Farr was taken to the
eompany's hospital in San Antonio.
OF the thirteen cars wrecked. six
we're loaded with copper ore in transit
from Benson, Arizona to New York,
and seven were empties. OF these,
four were completely wrecked while
the Others can be saved. The two en-
gines were so badly damaged TIT
they will be brought to the shops here
20 be overhauled.
A wrecking crew went out at once
from Sanderson to do preliminary
work in clearing up, and at 400
O'Clock the wrecker went out from Ell
Paso with q wrecking crew OF 10 men
in charge of 81. G. Borcherding, fore
man of the car department in the
shops here.
The men worked all night, building
. temporary track around the wreck,
and at 30 this morning the way was
clear, and trains were running. The
east bound passenger which left here
yesterday afternoon was delayed two
hours. The incoming passenger from
the east today is on time.
The reason for the accident is mys-
terry. The switch was not open, but
was set for the siding, and must have
been so fixed with the deliberate in
tention of wrecking the train. The G.
III. officials will at once make q search
ing Investigation.

The Choctsw line which will. with

from Ola, seventy-six miles west of

work on this part of the road, the
grading of which has practically been
completed, will be pursued with all
possible dispatch. The bridge over
