 construction of a municipal water works system.
 A similar case to this was recently decided in the United States supreme court in which it was held that the city of Knoxville, Tenn, had a right to construct a municipal system oyer the objections of the Knoxville Water company, whose contentious were quite the same as those of the Phoenix Water company.
 Another matter of considerable in terest was that of former Governor l.. C. Hughes against the territory an appeal from Judgment of the court fer Pima county lining the app allant. who is also editor of the Arizona Star. for contempt of court for a certain publication relating to a case then pending. Judge Campbell imposed a fine of s200. The judgment of thr lower court is sustained.
 In the case of A. l.. Henshaw and others against the Salt River Vailey- Canal company and others, the judg- ment of the lower court is reversed 3nd the cause is remanded. This mat ter has been before the courts of this county for more than ten years. It Ina : twice reached the supreme court on
 
 twice sent back. It was brought fer the determination of the rights of the minority stockholders of the north side canals.
 In the original case of the territory against E. L. Vail and other members of the board of supervisors of Pima county an application for a writ rf mandamus to compel the board to levy for the payment of the taxes on the so-called narrow-gauge bonds, the writ was directed to issue.
 In the original case of R. N. Leath- erwood and other members of the Ari- zona Pioneer Historical society against the territorial auditor to compel the auditing of claims against the territory under a statute providing for the maintenance of the society the application was denied.
 In the case of the Salt River Valley Canal Go. against Peter Neilssen the judgment of the lower court in fa- vor of Neilssen is ordered modified and affirmed.
 The opinions include several crimi- nal cases, among them that of the ter ritory against James l.. Monroe from one of the southern counties. The in terest in it from a general point o view lies III the fact that the territory appealed. The appeal was taken from an order of the court sustaining z demurrcC- The opinion supports the contention of the appellant, but in the nature of things can not alter the po- sition of Monroe as the result of the courts error.
 In the case of James R. Thorp, against T. N. Clanton and others the lower court Is reversed and the caus, is remanded. This was a suit brough. by the appellees to prevent the appel lant from closing up certain alleys il the townsite of Sidney or Buckeye and a restraining order was issued bJ the lower court
 In the case of F. s. Pheby againsr the Lake Superior and Arizona Mining 1 company. from PinaI county, the judg- ment of the lower court is affirmed
 The opinions were not handed down until the unusually late hour of o'clock. a delayed train from the sout. preventing the arrival of several at- torneys until that time. The cour. an nounced list of seven cases in whicl opinions would be handed down CT
