PLAINTIFF DENIES
SIGNATURE is HERS
Alleged Evidence of Satisfaction OF
Mortgage Is Offered by Defense
in Foreclosure Pro-
ceedings

J. H. Smith, we'll known in the courts
because of his connection with numer-
Gus divorce actions, was yesterday the
defendant in a foreclosure of mortgage
proceeding in the superior court. Mrs.
G. r. Camp of San Diego is the plaintiff
and the suit grows out of the divorce
suit brought In 1906 by Mrs. Camp
against her husband, Smith being en-
ployed by the woman to aid her in that
action.
Mrs. Camp at that time, according to
her complaint, loaned Smith $3.50, Smith
mortgaging some property as security.
1t is claimed by the defense that sat
isfaction of the mortgage was signed
by Mrs. Camp, but she declares the sig
nature to this paper is not hers. The
case was continued until Tuesday.

THREE ARE ARRAIGNED
ON BATTERY CHARGES
Gases Result from Fight for Possession
of Hotel-Notice by Landlord
to Tenant Is the
Issue

Sara Hendricks, Philip Cooper and
Albert Hinman were tried before Po-
lice Justice Frederickson yesterday on
battery charges. The complaint against
them was the result of a fight over the
possession of the Hotel Casa del Pico,
1916 Vermont avenue, on March 2, with
Mrs. Elizabeth L. Burner who leased
the hotel to the defendants.
According to the testimony the hotel
is the property of the DR., H. Russell
Burner estate The Administrative of
the estate. Mrs. Elizabeth l.. Burner,
leased the place to Mrs. Hendricks and
then secured apartments at the hotel
for herself Mrs. Hendricks wanted
Mrs. Burner to leave and served her
with a notice to vacate on March 2.
Mrs. Burner declined, contending that
she had a right to stay for a month
after the notice was served When she
ATTEMPTED to enter the building she
was denied admittance by the defend
ants.
The point at issue is whether or not
a landlord must give a months notice
to tenants.
After hearing the evidence in the
case Justice FredericksOn took the
matter under advisement.

DEV0TlNG ATTENTION
TO REDUCING STOCK
BeIen People viii Not Mine
Until Surplus Is Reduced,

r. L. Van Dusen and Ace P. Abel
Of the Belen Mining company return
ed on the Drummer's special this
morning from Ell Paso where they
had been to purchase additinoal
equipment for their plant near Cum
pas. They purchased two 100 horse
power Parker water tube boilers,
which are to be shipped 10 the mines
as soon as possible and at once in
stalled. Mr. Van Dusen states that
the new thirty-tOn smelter, which was
installed on their property two weeks
ago, is turning out an excellent matte
and promises TO be a complete sue
cess with the installation of the new
boilers and the added 260 horsepower,
but that its work has been handi-
capped thus far by the uncertain
working OF the boilers which they
had.
The Belen company is now devot-
ing all it's energies to the reduction
of the ore already on hand and has
suspended production until the ore
already on the dumps shall have been
reduced. There is enough to keep
the smelter busy for two or three
months to come. The force of ope-
ratives las not, however, been re-
duced.
In the past the company has been
shipping it's ore here for reduction,
but owing to cost of transportation
only ore very rich in silver has been
sent here and the ore of lower grade
has accumulated on the dumps Il
Is this accumulation upon which the
reduction plant the company has in
stalled is now Working-Douglas

CLAIM ARMY
OFFICER HAS
BEEN EXILED
contended That Colonel Stew
art Was Sent to Arizona to
Crafty Officers Who Had a
''Pulr'-Ask investigation.

Army circles and the country gen
orally will manifest keen interest in
the movement which has been inaug-
urated in washington to find out why
Colonel William ]. Stewart was trans
ferred from command OF coast artil-
lery at Fort Barrancas. Florida, TO
Fort Grant, in Graham county, Ari-
IONA, which is considered by Colonel
Stewards friends as causing him to
be a practical exile
From the second ranking officer OF
the coast artillery corps in line for
promotion 10 a brigadier generalship
within a year. Colonel Stewart by the
military order approved by President
Roosevelt was transferred last oeto-
Der to a post which was abandoned
some time ago by the government
and at which only a few soldiers are
stationed to guard the property.
Fort Grant is located about eighty
miles from Tucson in the broad val
ley between the Pinaleo and Caliuro
mountains. There the scenes of the
celebrated western play, Arizona"
were laid A quarter of century ago
it was a place of much activity A
regiment of troops was kept there to
battle with the Indians and many of
ficers had their families at the fort
It's natural surroundings are almost
Incompatible, butf nevertheless, de-
serted practically as it is now, it is
very lonesome place for there are
no ranches nearby.
Colonel Stewards Punishment to
this place is taken by his friends to
have been unjustified vengeance met
ed out to him for some reason which
they are unable to learn. They have
applied at war headquarters for an
explanation but all that they can
learn is that the transfer was made
for military reasons"
The agitation over this transfer,
which was made several months ago,
bids fair now, however, to result in
congressional investigation, as the
colonel's wife and handsome daugh-
ter, who are his most valiant cham
pions, have enlisted the aid of sever
al members of congress.
The sole reason that Stewards
friends can find for the transfer is
enmity of other officers who had a
stronger pull in official circles and
were able to accomplish their pur-
pose of having him stationed at lone
ly Fort Grant.

BOARD GIVES EACH
SIDE FAIR CHANCE
SaIooniStS and Ants viii Have
Selection of Judges,

PHOENIX, April 3.--The board of
supervisors is today engaged in fig
ing the polling places and naming the
officers for the local option election
which is to be called next Monday. It
is expected that the work will be
completed this afternoon. In order
that neither side may have chance to
>say that it was cheated out of the
election the supervisors have adopted
a plan whereby one judge at each
polling place is appointed by the
Royal Arch, the local organization of
saloon men, and the other by the
Anti-Saloon league. The inspector,
clerk and marshal are chosen by the
board.
The Saloon men this morning hand
ed in their list of names of men they
desire to be appointed as judges. The
temperance people handed in their se-
lections this afternoon. The board
looked over both lists and made no
protest regarding any name that ap-
peared on either. The gentlemen
named by both sides are all well
known and respected.
The only officers of any real i'm
portance at an election are the in
spector and the two judges. The du-
ties of the cleark and marshal are
light, and all questions which arise
are settled by the inspector and
judges.
All parties interested have ex-
pressed themselves as entirely salts
fed with the arrangement made, and
no question can ever arise as to the
legality OF the May election
