Gold Case Continued
San Vicente Leaves

Hearing in the smuggling case
against Jose San Vicente has been con-
tinued until Saturday, January 1lth.
to allow the attorneys for the defense
to attend court now being held al
Nogales. Mr. San Vicente left Tor
Hermosillo on the burro yesterday ar
ternoon and Assistant United States
Attorney Bennett returned to PhoeniA
last night They viii both return to
Tucson for the preliminary hearing be-
fore the United States Commissioner.
Has the Government really a case
against Sam Vicente? Can they prove
that this identical placer gold came
from Mexico? These are the questions
that are bothering the Government Of
ficers here concerned in the case. The
law providing that entry shall be made
Of undutiable goods imported into the
United States, fixes only one penalty,
that Is the confiscatlon of the goods.
The officers could not arrest San
Vicente under that provision Of the
law. In fact, 1t seems probable now
that the charge against San Vicente
NAV have to be dismissed.
II it could be proven that san
Vicente SmugSleu Lne Soih d'iosS ING
line. he would be guilty of an offense
under the criminal laws of Mexico anG
would not dare to return. The penalty
for smuggling gold out OF Mexico IS
very severe 1t IS rumored that San
Vicente has a card up his sleeve and
can prove by witnesses that the gold
was handed to him at station this
side of Nogales. All the passengers
were thoroughly searched by the Gus
tom house officials at Nogales, among
them San Vicente and the gold was
not found.
The question with the defense is not
now so much the charge of smuggling
as he connscation of the gold. Unless
the United States attorney brings the
usual civil confiscation suit, the de-
fense will bring a suit to replevin the
gold from Captain Rousch. who still
has it in his possession. The entire
case may take a different turn before
the hearing which will be held here
one week from tomorrow.

DENVER. Col. Jan. 3.-Charles
Stevenson, a former accountant and
hotel clerk. was buried today after a
short illness at st. Joseph's Hospital,
where he died. The doctors ascribed
death to lack of nourishment and
starvation. due to poverty. Stevenson
had been peddling shoe laces. but was
supposed to have other means of sup
port He was too proud to make his
condition known. He was discovered
in a cold room. unconscious, having
been confined to his bed for two weeks
without any one knowing he was sick.
One brother survives him, Brig. Gen.
Luther Stevenson, who is now living
at Bingham, Mass.

Egyptian Cotton
Raised in Arizona

PHOENIX. Ariz. Jan. 3-Tests
made at the government stations in
the Salt I,iver valley have demon
strated to the satisfaction of the de-
partment of agriculture that Egyptian
cotton can be successfully and per-
haps profitably raised in the South
west Officials at the government ex-
perlmental farms and land owners in
this portion of the country are en-
thusiastic over the outlook for the in
PRODUCTION of the cotton industry.
Last spring, at the government sta
tions near Phoenix. nearly an acre
was planted to Egyptian seed, and a
planting OF the same size was made
on the great Chandler tract, in the
eastern and higher part OF the valley.
The crop has been gathered. and re-
ferring to samples sent to the secre-
tary Of agriculture. reply has been
received Dy Director McClatchie in
charge of the experiments, that the
cotton was the finest ever seen in the
department, and that the yield, ac-
cording to Professor McClatchie's fig-
ures. was better than that of the av-
erage Egyptian cotton In Its native
soil.
Several times in recent years at
tempts have been made to raise tn.
cotton of the Southern states in Ari-
zona, but without sufficient success to
encourage heavy growing. At the
same time. in Texas. Mississippi and
Alabama, growers have failed IN at
tempts to raise Egyptian cotton, a
condition due. doubtless, to an excess
of moisture. which is SO necessary to
the native American cotton. In many
respects the valleys of southern Art-
iona, New Mexico and of old Mexico
are similar to the valley of the Nile.
The soil Is almost identical, there is
little difference in climate. and irri
CATION is as necessary as in Egypt.
The experimental crop here was
raised at small expense of time and
labor and apparently the only OBJ
stacle in the way of making cotton a
staple crop in the Southwest will be
the labor question at picking time.
There are few negroes in this portion
of the country. and the cotton planter
here would of necessity depend large
ly upon Mexicans and Indians In the
picking on the patches here the sta
ton officials tried both, and found In
dians much more satisfactory as
workmen. The grape growers In
Southern California have found t:iat
the Indians from the Arizona rescrva-
tions give better satisfaction in the
vineyards than any other class Of la
Dor and at lower wage prices than the
native Mexican residents. Many the u
sand able bodied Indians are available
in all parts of the Southwest, ani
there is no reason why they should not
become expert cotton pickers.

Mayor Schumacher is in favor of a
municipal lighting plant. The matter
has been taken up and discussed in
formally by the Mayor and the Coun.-
clmen and win be considered at the
next regular meeting of the city coun-
Gil.
Mayor Schumacher was seen TINS
morning by a Citizen reporter regard
ing the proposed plant and stated tina,
as yet no official action had been taken
but that the proposition would be ais
cussed by the council at the next meet
ing.
The municipal water works have
been a success and the plant is run
ming so nicely, said Mayor Schumach-
er, that in view of the poor service
now furnished the city. it occurred to
us that a municipal nghting plan;
would be a success as measure OF
economy to the ci y and because OF
the improved service that could be
rendered" The city now pays about
$4,000 a year for the few lights 1t uses
and until the merchants close their
stores in the evenings, the service is
very poor. We have made private in
vcstigations into the cost OF installing
t14- adequate TO the
uIt. j, ..teus and + md that it would
cost not over $1,000 At the rate we
are now paying for the service.

Municipal Lighting Plant
AdVOCatedby Mayor Schumacher.

plant of this kind would pay for itself
in short time.
The new plant would be able TO
furiish at least twice, if not three umes
as many lights as are now operated
and for a much less cost. A genera!
lighting scheme with an arc light on
a.. important corners. would be a
feature of the new service. The plant
would be located at the water works
pumping station and the engineer
there would be in charge of both.
Operating 1t thus in connection with
the water works. would reduce the
expenses to a minimum.
by owing its own plant the city
would not interfere with any other
company that furnished light and
power in the city. The plant would
only supply the citys needs and not
furnish lights and power to private
patrons. In this way we would not
be competing with private corpora
tions, although the latter would be
deprived of the city's business.
The municipal water works have
been such a paying investment ,hat
We have no doubt but that a light
ing plant would prove an equally
economical measure.
The old and new councilmen all
seem to favor the plan and the pros
poets for its completion are good.

LrNEMAN INJURED.
Fell from a Pole in the Rear of the Haase Building.


 Michael Murphy, a lineman in the employ of the Connecticut Lighting and Power Go, fell from pole in the rear of the Haase building in Franklin court this forenoon. The fall was about twenty-five feet. A cross stick on which he was standing broke and precipitated him to a pile of debris. An iron step on the pole made jagged cut on his right leg, below the knee, and his right shoulder was dislocated. He was taken to Dr Anderson's office, where he was attended to. He may be able to resume work in a short time.
 Later it was decided to send him to the hospital. The injured man belongs 1n Bridgeport. Those who were on the spot at the time are talking of the effort made by J. J. Dunn, one of Mur- phys fellow workmen, to reach him and render assistance. MT Dunn was on the top of pole at the time and descended so rapidly that people on the ground thought he was falling and expected to see him dashed to pieces against the .wreckage. It is said that he came down in three or four stretches.
