cal interest in the HeiRze trouble CEN
tiers upon the probable effect the cop
per magnate's difficulties may have on
his Mexican investments. He is known
TO have backed J. P Hutchinson in
his taking over the Dolores mine in
Sta. Eulalia. Much was expected from
this deal, but work was unfortunately
stopped by litigation between the ven
dor. the Escobars, on the one hand,
and Jesus Aguiree Neyarez and Gen
eral Juan Hernandez, on the other. Mr..
Hutchinson was dispossessed by de-
cision of a state court in Chihuahua,
and the case has been appealed to the
federal tribunals and is now pending
before Judge Lira Lira in the dis
trict court at Juarez, the questions
involved being such that foreigners
and natives alike are watching It with
great interest as other titles may be
similarly affected.
1t is hoped by all that the matter
will be finally adjusted by the supreme
court OF Mexico. What effect the re
cent Wall street furry may nave upon
Mr. Heinze's readiness to carry this
through is not in any way known
Some three months ago, engineers
in Heinze's employ visited chihuahua
and spent some time IN Santa Euialia
examining properties Of the Chihuahua
and Potosi mining companies, with a
view to purchase. The deal would in
8olxe millions in gold, and It was at
that time understood that the decision
whether or not Il would go through
depended greatly upon the final 5udgr
ment in the Dolores case. The effect
upon the sta. Euialia and the city Of
ChIauahua would be great and it is
feared that the state OF the market and
Mr.. Heinze's personal troubles VIII ef-
fectually bar all possibility Of con
summation.
Mr. Heinze was also popularity cred
tied with being interested with J. A
coram. o. Boston. in the syndicate that
has taken the famous Palmilla mine OF
Pedro Aivarado al Pafral. This. how
ever. has been in no way confirmed.

corporate reconstruction should take
would be best performed, perhaps, by
national commission; and such a
commission would have for precedent
the work done by Germany thirty
years ago-a corporate reform that
almost disarmed German socialism
except as an agitation against the
unjust land laws of that country
incorporated enterprises, just as
private enterprises, should be given
room to grow. But there is no need
that the corporation should initially
capitalize a projected success, that.
II exists at all, exists only in the
future. Let the securities issued on
account of success be issued only
when success is established; and let
them be fairly related as the enter
prise grows to the increased value OF
the actual earning power developed.
And i can see no reason why in any
honest enterprise TIE question wheth-
err additional securities shall be Is,
sued should not be made the subject
OF judicial inquiry.
"One thing more in the line of
structural principles. The first duty
of every enterprise, Incorporated or
private, is to secure to the capital In
vested its eventual safe return. while
paying on il from time to time, after
payment of operating expenses, such
fair returns FOR its use as the nature
of the venture suggests. That is
what capital always has the right 10
ask. But this having been accom-
plished, there are some enterprises
now that take labor and management
into partnership in the further dis
position OF the fruits of success.
Il would not make it compulsory,
but / would try to infuse into the cor
poration of the future an incentive
and a spirit that would make it more
usual-that would give the workman
the clerk. the employee of every kind
an opportunity to individually share
in the growth of the enterprise C
which he is attached. This is not a
mere philanthropic dream. The spir
it will come when the employee 5eels
that what he gets he gets as a mat
ter of contract, not as a matter o.
gift, and is as secure therein as ii
the corresponding interest OF the EN-
ployer; and when the employees
wakes up to the truth that as it Il
not by bread alone that men live
it is not Tor bread alone that men Du

JOSE is CHARGED
WITH RoBsiNG REVOLVER
(Tucson Star.

Tucson Starr
Jose Manquera, now in the city
Jail, is not charged with any com
mon offense by Officer Smith The
man has the unique distinction of be-
ing charged with robbing a revolver,
and in support Of that assertion the
night cook at little chile con carne
place on Tenth street, near Sixth
avenue. will this morning appear in
court to tell the story against Man
able to relate.
The accused dropped in on the
manipulation of chile about i o'clock
Saturday night and had him prepare
a sayory dish. During this time it
was necessary for a few minutes at
a time for the cook to lose sight Of
his customer and a portion of his
counter Time passed, and Man
guerra at his lunch, paid for 1t and
denarted.
Now the night cook had behind the
counter a revolver which he used as
a receptacle for his yaluables, and
after his customer left he thought
he would take another look at the
contents of his bank, consisting Of
a valuable paper and some paper
money. He was nearly paralyzed to
find that some one had carried away
the entire banking institution, and
he at once scsp7cted ldopnusra, of
being the offender.
The police were given descrfp-
ton of the man, and officer Smith,
after a long search, picked him Up
at $3.50 O'Clock yesterday morning.
If he is guilty of the offe9se
charged, the discriminating evidehce
was not on his person.

MORE TROUBLE FoR LELEvIER

s'If anyone thinks for a minute that
Yves G. Lelevier is out of his trou-
bles, they are greatly mistaken, as we
are not half through with him yet"
said United States Attorney Alexan
der at Tucson when questioned re-
garding his intentions in the now fam
Gus case OF the young Mexican from
Douglas.
4 am now working on the case.
and it is probable that within the
next three weeks Lelevier viii be
placed under arrest again" added Mr..
Alexander.
@Will the next hearing take place
in Tucson?" was asked the United
States attorney.
Most assuredly it wfll'' he replied,
"and 1t win not be long before the
matter comes up either" he conelud-
ed.
The case rested entirely on whether
or not young Lelevier could be sent
back to Mexico to stand trial for the
theft of two checks from the postoffice
at Naco. Sonora. the checks being
for SO each. The defense claimed
that he was innocent OF the charge,
but contended, however, that even II
he was guilty, the amount taken was
not sufacient TO make It an extradfta
BILE case. Young I1elevier has had
two hearings on this matter. one be-
fore Commissioner tombstone in Phce-
nix and one before Commissioner
Richey in Tucson and both times the
case was decided in his favor.
Captain Alexander stated that the
government had evidence to prove
that Lelevier had not stopped with the
theft OF the two checks mentioned be-
fore. but had also taken from the
postoffice some thirty or forty other
packages, and the case viii be heard
next time for the theft Of one Of these

statement and beg leave to assure
you on behalf of the Alamogordo
