Resolution Approving City
 Councils Purpose to Take Over the Sherman Plant.

The present city council will go down into history of the town as a council which did things. It has had passed up to it for solution more trying prob lems than any other Phoenix council has been confronted with. but it has solved them quickly and in every in- stance, with the approval of the tax payers of the town,
 Several days ago the council entered into a verbal agreement with L. H. Chalmers to buy the plant of the PhOe- nix Water company for the sum of $50, 900. No sooner had this been done, than a public meeting. was called by Mayor Coggins at the suggestion of the council, to give the council the views of citizens either in approval or disap- proval of that act.

The Members of An Alleged Lumber Com
 binatiOn On the Carpet
H. P. DeNIund the DeNImd Company, Declining the Benefit of the Immunity Clause, Was Ordered to Tes- tify This Morning.

Lumber company, the Chamberlain Lumber company, The Valley Lumber company and H. w. Ryder. It is be- lieVed that the other managers, besides MT. DeMund, consisting Of MT. Ryder, T. Chamberlain, and P. Corpstein, will be called before the grand jury which is believed to be in possession of a great deal of evidence on the part of the government. It is possible that the re- suits of the investigation will be dis closed today.
 Another concern against which 1or- nal complaint has been made is the alleged meat trust, whose case will be taken up immediately after the dispo- sition of the lumber inquisition. It has long been charged that P. T. Hur- ley and s. J. TribOIet have had com plete control of the meat and cattle buying business of the valley; that the price of meat on the block has gone steadily higher. while the price of cat tie on the hOof has remained station ary. and that though there are other meat markets in Phoenix, they are un- der the control of Messrs. Hurley and TriboIet, who not only have stifled all independent companies, but have been able to drive California cattle buyers out of the valley market. Messrs. Hurley and TriboIet not long ago merg- ed into what is called the Phoenix Meat company.
 Formal complaint has also been made against the so-caIled ice trust, a com bination which was formed last sum mer, but which was afterward dissolv- ed.
 There are other concerns which have attracted the attention of the federal authorities, but SO far as known. suf- ficient evidence has not been secured to warrant a formal nvestigation
 The United States government has been buster in this territoy lately than at any time since the wholesale pros cautions a few years ago for violations of the Edmunds act The federal eight hour law has been enforced at all the government works in Arizona There was some trouble in securing the en- fOrcement of it on the works at Yuma but now it is faithfully observed there
 A few days ago United States Attor- ney Alexander received word from Con- tractor O'Rourke in charge of the works at Roosevelt, asking that the en- forcement Of it be postponed there foI a short time. MT. O'Rourke came to town last Saturday to see if some ar engagement could not be entered into with the government by which, on ac- count of the problems which exist al Roosevelt the ten hour day might be continued. Captain Alexander replied that he could not consent to a violation of the law even in an emergency, anc that the 8-hOur law would have to % into effect last Monday in all depart ments of the work at Roosevelt.

The investigation of Phoenix trusts and combinations alleged to be in re- straint of trade, was begun yesterday by the United States grand jury. Or, rather, the grand jury had been pre- Viously considering complaints against various alleged unlawful combinations but it was not generally known until yesterday, when the attention of by islanders was attracted by the person. mel of the witnesses called into the grand jury room.
 It was then surmised that the lumber business in Phoenix was being looked into. The surmise was strengthened when H. P. DeMund of the DeMund Lumber company was called. Soon af- ter that, there was a ripple of excite ment when the announcement was made that the grand jury desired to submit a report. That was a rather unusual time of day for such a pro ceeding.
 MT. DeMund emerged from the room and went to a telephone and the grand jury soon after filed into the court room and handed report up to Judge Kent, who read it carefully and at great length. He seemed to be weigh ing the contents.
 Then the fact that the investigation
 
 came out when Judge Kent told MT. DeMund, who was accompanied by his attorney, L. H. Chalmers. something about the Sherman antitrust act. He told him, that under the immunity clause he could testify as to the facts of the alleged combina ton without in eliminating himself. but the immunity would not extend to his company or to the other members of the unlawful combination if one were found to exist. The court moreover, could order him to testify under a decision of the United States supreme court in the case of Hale vs. Henkel, from New York, in connection with the investigation Of the tobacco trust.
 MT. Chalmers said that he had just been called into the case. and desired a conference with Mir. DeMund of few minutes. The grand jury retired and in ten minutes Mir. DeMund and his attorney came into court. when Judge Kent formally ordered him to answer such proper questions as the grand jury might propound to him. His examination will begin at half past nine o'clock this morning.
 The nature of the report of the grand jury on the refusal of MT. DeMund to reply to the questions asked him. was not made public but it is understood that it contained a list of questions which were asked him.
 There had been rumors of the intend ed investigation Of an alleged lumber combination and of other combinations charged with the control of other com modities. Complaints against the lum- Der men of Phoenix had been particu- larly bitter. It was charged that a trust existed almost without any at temDt at coucea lment. that the mem bers of it each knew all about the bus mess of the other members; that they had put up the price of lumber to such an extent that building operations in the valley were greatly interfered with. and almost strangled. and that there was no relief except such as the United States laws would afford.
 The companies alleged to be engaged in this conspiracy are the DeMund

Hard on Land Agents.

Much discomfort is being expressed
with the ruling of the Interstate COM
merce commission prohibiting the is
suance of passes to land and immigra-
ton agents. Protests are beginning to
pour in on the commissioner at Wash
ington, especially from the west. 1t
is commended that these land and immi-
grafton men, while not actually en-
ployes Of the railroads, should be per
mitted to travel free because of the
good they do in settling up n devel-
oping the sparsely settled states. How
ever, the law is the law, and so long
as the Hepburn bill prohibits the CIV
ing of free transportation to others
than employees of the railroads, the
transportation companies will be com
PEELED to observe the prohibition.

months has been working on the n
tract for the enlargement of the Union
Pacific dam across the Laramie. river
at this place, for the storage of water
for the purpose of cutting ice, has
closed up the work and today dis
charged his gang of about fifteen men.
Mr. Deal rebuilt the dan and also eX-
cavated several thousand yards OF dirt
below the dam for a new storage res
ervoir, and is now ready for the com
ing of the ice crop. He says the com
pany will have a larger surface from
which to take ice than ever before.
Ice Plant Story Confirmed.
The contractor confirms the report
printed in these columns a day or two
ago concerning the building OF ICE
houses here. He was told that thu
houses would be built, a sidetrack lait
to connect them directly with thu
main line, and that all of the refrig

be iced here, changing the Icing point
heretofore used to Laramie.
