A press telegram from Phoenix dated the 12th inst, reads as fol- lows:
 Afraid that she will carry out her threat to chop their heads of with with an axe, Genero Beltral filed a complaint with Probat, Judge Phillips this morning against Petra Moreno, charging hel with insanity.
 Beltran Is the father of the woman and alleges in his petition for her examination that she con- tinually neglects her little baby to spend her time with others in con- vitality.
 The woman spends the greater part of her leisure moments with Pablo Gomez, who Is the father of her child, but not her husband. Her father states that the woman's husband resides in Nogales.
 Beltran told Probate Clerk Kirk land that the woman is violently insane at times, and has made fre- quent threats that she would chop off the heads of her parents if they interfered with her. She will be given an examination later.

The time for this meeting has not been arranged nor have delegates been appointed by the strikers. The meeting will be held as soon as possible, however, and the matter settled without delay. The strikers delegation will probably be headed by Albino Otero and Carlos Villegas, president and sec retary of the Monterey union, while Lie. Salvador NJ. Cancino, sub-re- presentante of the company will probably represent the railroad at the meeting. Pending a settle ment the toilermakers have been asked to resume work but they had not replied to this request yester- day. It is probable that they will resume work without waiting for the decision of the mediator.

The improvements have been going on at Durango for some time, those shops to be made the most important on that road. The work now is being taken up on. the en- largement of the shops at Mon- clova. The Monclova shops will receive in the next few days two Nordberg engines of the noncon- densing type, measuring Is by 36 inches, operating under 100pounds steam pressure and running 125 revolutions per minute. Similar machinery is being shipped to Du- rango. This improvement is the result of the encouragement of the International, the division of the road into two divisions. The round house and machine shops at Du. rango are reported to be nearing completion. Improvements at Du- rango on such large scale IS taken to mean that the International in- tends to make that city its most important center. As soon as the merger is perfected the lnterna- tional will begin the active work on the extension of the line to the west coast. When this line is com pleted, Durango will become an important center for the road.

MAGDALENA BAY
IS SOUGHT BY
UNITED STATES
Government Whatsoever
lures Toward Purchase
of Lower California.
Mexico Believed to Be
Willing to Part With
Pacific Coast Harbor.

The United States wants 70 buy Lower
California from Mexico. in order 20 Sc
cure the famous Magdalena bay, 500
miles south of San Diego and 100 miles
north of the foot of the peninsula, and
make Il the headquarters Of the Pacific
feet and a great naval station.
This bay is the greatest harbor in the
world. II is ten by hftten miles. com
pletely landlocked. facing on the Pacific,
and with entrance only mile and
half wide 1t is very deep. and there is
no city near H. and no shipping to in
terfere with either the secrecy Of the
ease Of naval movements. II the United
States secures 1t as a result OF Secre-
tary Roots negotiations with President
Diaz, IT will be made the location of
the worlds greatest naval establish
ment. of docks. shipyards, and great
Notifications.
The United States has long used this
bay, by consent of Mexico. as a practice
ground; but it now wants absolute
ownership. and is ready to buy all low
Cr California if necessary. This Will
probably prove the case. In considera-
ton of the transfer the United States

very important guarantees Of naval

Mucn Of lower California is low owned
by Americans. MaEdalena Bay recently
was thoroughly surveyed, studied. and
reported upon. by the naval experts,
and they pronounce II the greatest place
in the world for an impregnsble naval
station and base. Adjacent to and open-
ing out Of BIagdalena Bay is AImejas
Bay, smaller but finely protected and
valuable.
Little Value to Mexico,
Lower California is of little value to
Mexico, and slightly priced. 1t is OF
about $1,000 miles area. sterile. and ex-
tremely rough and mountainous, the
Pacific shore being precipitous for hun
dreds of miles. There is very little
water. and tremendous expenditure on
this account would be necessary in or
der TO plant a great naval station at
Magdalena. It might even be found
that this difficulty made such a project
impossible and that the grounds could
be used only for practice and defensive
work in time of war.
The development OF the fact that the
United States is seriously after this

cation Of the seriousness with which
the Administration regards the move of
