 TRACKLAYING-Work on the Phoe- nix and Eastern grade is progressing nicely. Tracklaying will begin just as soon as the grading gangs get far enough ahead to keep out of the way. It is desirable to follow up the graders with steel as closely as possible, so that material for the Tempe bridge can be delivered quickly and cheaply. On the Tempe side of the river the grade work will be slower for some distance, ewing to big cuts necessary in the vii cinity of the butte, but the track will be laid up close to the river as a mat ter oi economy in construction. The date cannot be definitely stated, but it is probable that tracklaying will begin in three or four weeks.

 NO CHANGE OF CONTROL-It was not to be inferred from an article which appeared in The Republican yesterday morning regarding the case of E. r. Kellner against the Maricopa Creamery company, in which a judgment was given the plaintiff, that there had been any change in the control of the af- fairs of the company. The plaintiff had applied for an order setting aside the sale of certain shares of stock which had passed into the hands of Messrs. Rays and Mognett, his part ners in the enterprise. Messrs. Rays and Mognett still control a majority of the stock, and it is stated that the nine shares involved in the recent Iiti- gation have cut no figure in the affairs of the company for the last year and half.

 FOXY CON.-Con O'Keefe. the chief promoter of the Sonora Mining and Milling Ccmpany's enterprises, is well enough known in this town to make the following from the Tucson Post inter esting reading: "Con O'Keefe was in Itiated by the Elks at their regular meeting on Monday night. It was de veioped that he fooled the members of his lodge at Nogales. who intended to accompany him in q body when he cane up here to be initiated. IL seems that he let them think that he did not intend tO come up this time. They watched the train, however. fearing that he would fool them. but he lodged hem by driving to Patagonia and talk ing the train for Tucson there. When the wise Nogales Elks found that they had been fooled by fawn, they made the wires hot between Nogafes and Tucson summoning Con back by wire with such messages as Your mine is in the hands c; the Yaquis; return at OnCe.' He, however, had the best of them and was initiated without their having any fun over him."
