NEW FIGHT BEGUN $ : 0N REED SHOOT
MOTHERS CONGRESS PLANS RE NEWAL OF EFFORT TO DUST
 UTAH SENATOR.
Want to Force Prompt Action and to that End Will Demand Report From the Elections Committee Which Investigated the Case.

Washington, Mar 15.-Reed Shoot, senator from Utah. and the Senate committee on privileges and cleo tions. will be the target at which the Mothers Congress, now in ses- sion here, will aim it's darts. The Mothers Congress was one of the or ganizations which started the move ment against the seating of Apostle Shoot on the ground that he was a Mormon; that the Mormon church still countenanced polygamy, and that its teachings placed polygamy high CT than the Constitution of the Unit ed States. Proceedings were brought against Apostle Shoot, but he was permitted to take his seat.
 Then an effort was made by the women of the country to unseat him. The committee on privileges and elections held hearings through two sessions of Congress, and the case was closed long ago, but the commit tee has not acted. majority of the members believe the case against Senator Shoot was made out, and that he is not entitled to his seat, but they are not disposed to go to the extreme of unseating a senator.
 There has been talk of further in- yestigations, but it is becoming clear to the counsel for the Mothers Con- gress that the Senate does not mean to act, and that Mr. Shoot will be permitted to serve out his term. All the energy of the congress now in session will be directed toward fore ing the Senate committee to report the case to the Senate, and then forcing the Senate to- unseat Apos- tie Shoot

Phoenix, Ariz., March 15, 11:45 p. n,. The night before the last day of the Legislature finds the House and Coun- Gil deadlocked over the appropriation bill At eight o'clock tonight in the House, Bailey, of Cochise. under whip and spur, passed the general appropria tion bill. It will make it's appearance in the Council the first thing tomor row. The Council will promptly re fuse to pass the measure as it comes from the House. Then will come the conference committees and a long drawn out wrangle. There are threats on both sides tonight. that there will be no general appropriation bill pass ed at this session. but tomorrow will probably bring a more dispassionate view of the matter.
 The stock law consumed most of the time in the House today. The bill has for it's purpose the codification of the present laws. It's hearing will be re sumed tomorrow at 10 o'clock. Cat tlemen here tonight from Cochise county say the bill will pass both houses tomorrow.
 The legislature just drawing to a close will go down in history as body which believes in letting well enough alone.
 Bills of wide sweeping importance such as anti-gambling, bullion tax. mine inspector, primary election law, etc, tonight remain locked in commit tee rooms where. in all probability they vii! remain until the close of the session. The bill allowing residents of Arizona temporarily in Mexico on business, to vote in Arizona, has pass ed both houses and is now in the hands of the governor. It is expected it will receive pocket veto.
 The sensation of the House Tuesday was the speech of Bailey, of Cochisc in which he arraigned his colleague Neville, for an attack made on Bailey charging him with being the special representative of corporations. Bailey spoke for more than two hours, and raked Neville fore and aft, charging him with insincerity and demagogy throughout tine entire session, and having made assertions o nthe floor oi the House in reference to COchise county that could not be sustained by the facts.
 Neville deliberately insulted the Council as a body, on the floor of thc House, by terIning that body band of grafters. All through the session this member from Cochise has heapet abuse of the vilest sort upon individ uals here and in his own county. anC is detested for his petty spite worl not only by members of the legisla ture, but by the citizens of the Territc ry at large, who have been present dur ing sessions of fhe legislature anG

President Jordan, of Stan ford University, has emphatic ally expressed the opinon that Mrs. Stanford's death was not due to strychnine poisoning.

SAVANIC MINE
HAS BEEN SOLD.
Col. II. / Pickett Has Realized a
Snug Fortune out of Arizona
Copper Property,
VENDOR IS WELL KNOWN HERE,
Property Has Produced Much High
Grade Ore, Fourteen Cars Sent Here
Averaging 50 Per Cent

COL H. L. Pickett, the well known
mining lawyer OF Tombstone, Ari2. but
for long time resident Of this city
has sold his Sayanic copper mine, To-
Gated in the extreme northern part Of
Arizonu and not for from st. George,
TO u strong syndicate Of Michigan peo-
pie The consideration could not be as
certainod by the News but is said to
have been u good round sum,
The Sayanic mine has II very enviable
bullion record and while Col. Pickett
was Il resident Of this city he shipped
"a car loads to the smelters which aver
aged 80 per cent copper, while several
OF them ran better than so per cent IN
the bronze metal 1t was a matter Of
necessity to ship only the high grade
ore because Of the great cost Of trans
portatlon At that time Modena was
the nearest railroad shipping point, Il
distance Of 40 miles, from Modena to
Salt Lake the distance is 800 miles and
the expense of moving the ore from the
$4y a ton. Nevertheless, the property
made money for It's owner but Of
course, Il was out OF the question to at
tempt to move the lower grade ore, OF
which the mine contains large bodies.
The new owners OF the SaYanic have
already begun an extensive campaign
OF development and, during the present
year. II is the intention to erect
smelter at point about 10 miles from
the mine whore an abundant supply
Of water can be had. II win probably
be well on towards the close OF the year
before the construction OF the plant will
be undertaken as there Ia 20 be a great
deal Of work done In making a new
wagon road from the mine out to
Moapa, which will be the nearest sta
tlon on the Salt Lake Route, and which
win become the regular shipping point
for the new company The distance
from the mine to Moapa Is 65 miles. II
ls said Of the Sayanic that Il has pro-
duced more high grade copper ore, con-
siderlng the amount OF development
work done, than any other mine In Ari-
zona.
The many Salt Lake friends of Col
Pickett win be glad 20 know that he
has realized a comfortable fortune out
OF his property and that he has found
himself safely located on easy street"

messed a return Of higher prices for
the metal 10 the greet satisfaction OF
the producer There was nothing iicu-
tious I'm the advance which was caused
by the withdrawal Of surplus stocks to

"Thc American market was not put
10 any test to supply the export move

early part of the year was below the
normal demand. Ia the ordinary con-
dtiOns prevailed at home we could not
have spared the enormous shipments
that went abroad ana the result would

RAILWAYS IN STATES.

who Visited Utah Last Year

Neville Prlestley. under secretary 10

Was studying the railroads Of America
has issued his report. This morning
COPY, under the title of Organization
and Working Of Railways In America
was received by the News TO Amer
leans II Is very interesting document,
as 1t goes thoroughly into detail ana
also demonstrates how far ahead the
United states Is in the matter OF sell
entihc transportation facilities.
In conclusion Mr.. PrIestley sums up
the situation as follows:
"rhe railways Of America are COM
mercial undertakings on gigantic
scale, and are operated under condl-
tions which are TO be found nowhere
else In the world, since they receive no
protection from the state and have had
20 fight their way to the front by sheer
ability Of management. IL / have APP

cause | was greatly impressed by the
courage with which the railroad oili-
GERS have faced their difficulties and
the pluck with which they have over
come them. II Is impossible to aSsocl-
ate with the great men who have made
may may say American national his
tory without being infested with some
of the enthusiasm they show for their
business; and no man can travel over
their railways without becoming pos
sessed of great deal more knowledge
than he previously had, or without get
ting many valuable hints Many OF
their methods are different, often start
lingly different, from those one has been
brought up TO believe the only correct
method; and It Is not TIL one realizes
tnnt the one idea In the mind OF Amer
lean railway men Is to get there" and
that they do get there" by the short
est and quickest way, and do not allow
themselves to be turned aside either by
red tape, old-tlme preiudiCes, tradition,
or any other Of the bogeys by which
older countries are ass1iled, that one
understands how the results have been
obtained which one sees there, Amer
lean railway men are quick TO see n
rev idea; they are quicker still to try
II, they take a great pride in their pro-
fession. and are all striving to get at
the science of Il. That their methods
are not always perfect is what might
have been expected; but they have
managed TO do what no other country
In the world has DONE and, that Is,
Gerry their goods traffic probably at
extraordinarily low rates, notwith-
standing the fact that they pay more
for their labor than any other country.
II is in the study of how they do this
that much benefit can be derived by
other countries; and l have, IN some de-
gree, succeeded In throwing light on
their methods. | shall feel that have
benefited others as well as myself by
my visit to that great country where
the courtesy of the people is only ex-
ceeded by their hospitality"
