opening OF the tunnel

U. s. SUPREME COURT
 DECIDES ARIZONA CASE
Finds for Ex-Governor Murphy and Ex-Auditor Vickers
 Against Thos. Wilson.


 WASHINGTON, pct. 29.-The U. s. Supreme Court today decided the case of Thos. F. Wilson vs, Governor N. o. Murphy and Auditor Geo. w. yicSers, of Arizona, in favor of these officials.
 The suit arose out of a charge by Wilson that part of the territorial funds which were appropriated for the apprehension of criminals had been diverted, and used for the furnishing of the governors office.
 Wilson instituted proceedings to re- cover, as allowed by the law, three times the amount thus paid out.
 The trial court, in Pima county. held that the warrants were properly drawn. and the territorial supreme court sustained that view. Today's de- cision affirmed the findings of the lower courts.
