Al the opening of court the attor-
neys engaged in long arguments re-
gardlng the admissibility of Testimony
pertaining TO the controversy be-
tween montgomery Ward & Co. and
the garment workers. which preceded
the strike of the teamsters. The court
ruled that the defense would be al
lowed to introduce evidence regarding
the controversy, but not as to the mer-
It's OF the controversy. The decision
OF the court was. considered a victory
by the defense
Charles Dold, president of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor at the time
OF the teamsters strike, then took the
stand, and declared that before the
teamsters went on strike he and Presi-
dent Shea and other labor leaders had
visited the office of Montgomery Ward
& Co., and had sought to have
the trouble settled by arbitration.
This was refused, he declared the Off
GERS of the company saying that there
was nothlng to arbitrate. The wit
ness then told of other efforts that
were made to secure arbitration, and
said that Mayor Dunno was asked to
use his good offices to bring 1t about.
The Mayor did all that he could the
witness declared, but was unsuccessful
1t was contended by the defense
that these efforts of the labor leaders
to bring about arbitration showed that
they were not in a conspiracy to wreck
the business of Montgomery Ward &
Co.

Pabst Beer stands alone today, the only food product that from the beginning 10 the end of It's manufacture Is abso- dominating germs of the air.
 Doctors boil their instruments in water to sterilize them. Pabst boils his brew in closed kettles and thus 'sterilizes it. From there 1t passes hermeticaliy sealed tanks where it is fermented. Then through more sterilized pipes 1t goes to sterilized dramatically sealed storage tanks and when bottled it is pasteurized. Is touched by human hands and comes in contact only with sterilized air.

MORALES MERCHANTS
 ON SUNDAY LAW
Claim That Not Only They, But Their Would-Be Custom
 CTS Will Suffer.
Special to Reyiew.)


 NOGALES. Dec. 10.-The mer- chants of this city are voicing strong protests against the city ordinance which oompels them to close their places of business all day Sunday, and are circulating 8 petition asking for it's repeal They claim that the clos ing of their stores on Sunday has a tendency to send their regular custom CTS across the line to make purchases which they can not get at home, and in consequence they are losing much of their trade, as many Of their GUS toners. being laboring people, can not do their trading Saturday, and must go here thev can get it Sunday. Also they say that large numbers of mining men can only reach town to do their trading (which is a large factor in No gales' business) on Sunday, and that this business they lost by being oblig- oa tn close on Sunday, They argue that it would be but justice to them and for the business welfare of the city, to so amend the ordinance as to allow all business places to remain open till 12 o'clock noon on Sundays; and it would be an easy matter for the merchants to so arrange with their clerks that each could have a half day off during the week, and thus enable them to attend to such matters as may require their attention. As the ordinance now stands 1t is hard ship, not only on the merchants but on many of their customers.
 A heavy and most welcome rain fell throughout the Nogales district during the past week.

 Then. too, there are the mining men that came here to look at some prop erty in the Blue Tanks.

We also learned that many a deal had been knocked out recently on account of the pios- pector wanting entirely too much mon ey down, not considering the fact that the people buying the property are taking chances, and they are develop ing the country and that the owner of the property Is holding the country back by asking enormous prices for prospects, and We ask the considera- tion of every owner of prospects in this section in regard to this feature and the welfare of the district at large.
 It has been said that the Hite Gold company will install mill. We have no authority for this statement, but 1t is to be hoped that there is some truth in It,

CALUMET & ARIZONA ACQUIRE INTERESTS Santa Rosas No. 3 and No. 4, South of Douglas, Taken
 Over,
(Cananea Herald)

A deal Of great importance 10 So- nora, said to involve larger amount of money than centered in any pre- yious proposition carried out in the state of Sonora since formation of Cananea Central, was brought to a head in this city last Saturday, so far as preliminary steps were concerned. Detail work in completing the trans action remains to be finished, but SO far as the deal ultimately going through in complete manner as now outlined there is practically no room for doubt. The interests involved are those of the Calumet & Arizona. A portion of the story was told in the Herald of last week in connection with the announcement of the acquire. ment of some 1 100 pertenencias in the Fronteras district through denounce- ment made in the name of Seth E. Hazard, attorney with the Calumet & Arizona interests at Bisbee. MT. Hazard departed on Saturday after noon in company with Mir. Hayden, his assistant in handling details of the deal here. It was then learned that beside the Announcements filed there had been terms made for the purchase of adjoining ground of much extent UelQ by ethu AioAi Kirk, of this city. On the latter ground there has been a good deal of develop ment work which has shown to the present time ore resources giving reas- on for belief that a great mine may conservatiyely be expected to come in. The property to be acquired by pur- chase is known widely in Sonora as the Santa Rosa, it having been in the public eye as an excellent prospect for the last several years. The property acquired by announcement Is under the titles of Santa Rosa No. 3 and San ta Rosa No. A. The group is four miles distant from the Nacozari rail- road. Is one mile north of the Agna Prieta river and eleven miles south from Douglas. Twenty-one miles south west Is the Bell property and adjacent ground lately acquired by the Patti son-Shattuck interests.

SHELTER AT SILVER BELL.
(Arizona Mining Review.) )

Work is well under way on the big smelter which the Imperial Copper company will erect just outside of Sill yer Bell, and which company is un- der the same management as the Tombstone Consolidated. The smell ter will have capacity of $50 tons per day. It will be taxed almost to it's capacity in smelting the ores of the Imperial, as the daily shipments are now between five and ten car loads per day.
 The Citizen says four houses are now being built at the smelter site which will be used as boarding houses for the smelter employees and for of fees. The sidings have already been built so that supplies for the smelter can be taken to the site by rail, there by doing away with the necessity of long haul by teams. In addition to the big smelter 1t is reported that a lead jacket with a capacity of 15O tons win be built 70 treat the lead ores.
 Sinking is being continued at the mines, and the main shaft Is down to a depth of nearly 1000 feet. Recent ly another large body of ore was un- covered on the 700-foot level.

 side of the City Limits.

PHOENIX, Dec. 10.-Mayor Coggins may prevent gambling in every form in Phoenix, but he Is not going to rob society of its swell card parties
 Phoenix may become spctless town, but the ladies are going to have their functions at which skill with the pasteboards will be re- warded with prizes or tokens of some kind by the hostess.
 After the new gambling ordinance goes into effect, instead of having card parties for prizes in the homes of the elite, these little affairs will be pulled off at the Country Club, which is just outside the city limits.
 Already the good matrons of Phoe- nix. who entertain their friends, are making arrangements to use the Coun- try Club house.
 Several tournaments which are looked forward to with great interest people, have been transferred from the elegantly appointed homes of the city to the Country Club.
 It has remained for the ladies of Phoenix to figure out . way to evade the gambling ordinance, and they have accomplished 1t by going just outside the city limits, where the city council has no authority to say whether or not people shall amuse themselves with their diamonds on by an inno- cent game of cards for a punch bowl or some other useful article.
 It is up to Mayor Coggins and the members of the city council to take their hats off to the good ladies of the Phoenix 400" They have won new laurels that cannot be denied them.

CANaHEA FUEL FAMINE IS
 SERIOUS !
Greene Consolidated Furnaces Threatened With a Shut Down for Lack of Fuel, In Spite of All Precautions.

Its great reverberatory furnace shut down. it's No- furnace dead and but two days coal supply ahead before other of the furnaces and possibly all. the Greene Consolidated smelt- ing plant must cease operation, is the situation in this city as a result of the fuel famine prevalent in the south west during the last several weeks. says the Cananea Herald. The situa- tion at Cananea, as the above plainly enough indicates, can only be looked upon as exceedingly serious. Shut, ting down great smelling plant is no small matter. The mines, opera tion of Ghtch requires fuel, must also be taken into considerafion.
 The predicament of the Greene Con solidated has come about in spite of the fact that the company months ago entered into longtime iron-clad con traete with coal and coke producers to keep it supplied with fuel The sit- uation is also at hand despite the fact that Greene Consolidated established q reserve supply of fuel. which in view of the contracts mentioned above and additional outside purchases, ap- peered to be abundant against all emergencies which might arise. and maintained it carefully until necessity arose to dig into ft.
 Six weeks ago the deliveries of coal fell of to less than the daily consump- tion of the smelter and rapidly went from bad to worse until they pracu- caily ceased. It became necessary for the company to attack it's reserve sup ply the minute the daily receipts on the regular shipments called for un- der the contracts commenced to de cline.
 The facts at the present are that the company's operations are seriously embarrassed, very seriously so, and that it has been necessary to shut down part of its shelter. The com pany has also been obliged to curtsil operations at the concentrator, where for more than week that department
