WAGE QUESTION E TAKEN UP
 IN CAAANEA
Officials of Greene Cananea Confer With State Officials In Regard to Compensation of Employees.

In adyices here yesterday it was stated that while in the State of So- nroa on his last trip before leaving for the east a few days ago, Col w. c. Greene and other officials Of the Greene-Cananea Company, had . con ference with the exocntiyo ofetaials of the state in regard to the wage 5csle to be paid to Mexican labor dur ng the depression, and in regard to he percentage Of natives that must e employed. What conclusions were arrived at cannot be ascertained. as no information in regard to the mat ter has been made public.
 Almost a week ago Col. W. C.. Greene, Dr. l.. D. Ricketts, general manager of the Greene-Cananea Com Dany; and William Thornton, presi- dent of the organization. left Cana nea in the colonefs private car, jour neying to Hermosillo, the capital of the state of Sonora. At that time no information in regard to the reason for the visit was made public, 1t be- ing stated that the trip only concern ed matters which would not interest the public.
 Since that time it has been learned Nhe1t "AAAC HI NAAC StAbAAN1A NAAg hAC AhAhe ter of the wage scale was taken up. and some definite plan arrived at.
 According to the laws Of Mexico a corporation operating in the republic must employ a certain percentage of native labor, and a scale of wages is adopted with the sanction of the state officials from which neither the company nor the employees can vary.
 Owing to the greatly reduced price of copper metal, it is believed the Gzeene-Cananea Company in which millions of dollars are involved, could not make a fair return on the invest ment, and because of the lower price of the metal closed down their mines. To make provision in case the slump shall be continued and the mines are re-opened, it is understood the action outlined above was taken by the com pany officials.
 It is understood that the action will not only affect men working in the mines, but in all apartments, and that a sliding scale will be adopted.

ATTEMPT TO sUNco
 COL. GREENE FAILS

An attempt to bunco Colonel w. c. Greene while the copper man was in Chihuahua several days ago and which failed because Mexican officers interfered, has just come Ito light.
 The bunco game was attempted by Mexican lawyer, acting for an Amer ican lawyer in Chihuahua, whom Col onel Greene formerly employed The lawyer was in Colonel Greene's ser vice in 1893, and was dismissed by him. However, there was some lack Of formality in the discharge, accord ing to Mexican laws, and the lawyer brought suit against Colonel Greene for $50,000 for salary up to date. The lawyer had been paid s100 gold per week
 Papers were served on Col Greene and an attempt made to attach his private car and all his belongings for the sum. Colonel Greene was threat ened with detention in the republic until the case could be tried-perhaps six months hence-and was asked to cough up the s50.000.
 However, the game failed to work. Through the good offices of govern ment officials higher up the matter was dismissed before it had fairly been launched, and the complainants were told that an attempt to bunco the capitalist would result in a jail sentence for themselves.
 And the colonel still has that $50,- 900. -'-.''

HMEscAL" KICKS ON
 REWARD FOR scALPS

Word arrived through a responsible medium yesterday that five miles south of Archipelago, a few days be lore, the Yaquis took in a Mexican camp and appropriated everything in sight, and the way they had of bring ng everything within the range of yision was no trouble. They bundled ID all moveable articles, then took the clothes of the Mexicans, revealing the underwear, which they also ap propriated; then marched their vic inns over to the sunny side of the bill and turned them loose, a most nagnanimOus and thoughtful finale to the proceeding.
 Now, the Mexican government has offered S200 a piece for Yaqui scalps. lave you stopped to reflect upon the extraordinary and multitudinous com Dlications to which this order will lead? In the first place, who can tell a mans scalp from a woman's in the aboriginal state? In the second place, who can distinguish a Mex. from a Yaqui scalp? Why, there is a little army of renegades down in that coun- try who need money, and while there are only about 750 Yaquis in Sonora, it is safe to say that Yaqui scalps will come in by the bale, come in till they fill a 'dobe warehouse, come in till they bankrupt the Mexican treas ury, come in till you would think the Yaquis were a tribe of fifty thousand. An, no, that wont do. The Mexican population of Sonora can't afford that rule. Then, might become widow CT any moment after sundown if that rule prevails. The fact is, after have been down there a few days on a visit to my wife's people and get my disappearing locks tangled with cookie burrs and "piojos" 1 would not be safe myself Egi
 My advice to young men who con template visiting Sonora while that rule is in operation is to blondine their hair before crossing the line.
 Doc Fisher has discovered a medi- cine which will grow a nice umbrag- eous scalp on a clean skull in thirty days Now, Doc has a scheme for getting rich quick" He will hire thousand Mexicans with headquarters on a hacienda down on the lower Ba- bispa.

 ELkS PRODUCTION
Rush For Seats For College Pennantp When Placed on
 Sale Yesterday.

In accordance with the predictions Of the past few days when the seats were placed on. sale at Rinehart's drug store yesterday morning for the Elks' show, The College Pennant, g there has been a rush for tickets. Be fore noon almost all of the orchestra chairs were gone and a large num- Der of seats in the balcony Last evening there remained a few seats in the orchestra, which will un- -doubtedly be sold before this even ing. The financial success of the production is assured
 Although 1t might seem remarkable there is no doubt that the scenery SssjSSi il InS O0ii5se remnant is without exception the finest ever seen In the territory. It amounts to a car load and is the property os H. l.. Brown, the dramatic instructor who is coaching the local aspirants for Thespian honors. Included in the set tings is one of ship. whi oh was ad- mired by the late Richard Mansfield, when it was set up for inspection in the McVickar Theatre in Chicago, and which the premier actor of America offered to use in his production of "Bere Gynt."
 With the scenery of such a high standard, the costumes particularly selected for the play and the mem bers of the cast rehearsing their var ious parts faithfully, there is no doubt that The College Pennant," will be the greatest amateur theatrical pro duction ever put on in this section of the country
 The final rehearsal of the cast will be had at the theatre on Sunday, but in the meantime the training at the club house will go on the same as usual
