BASEBALL SEASON Is
 OPENED 1T DOIJGLAS
Yohe'S Team of Professionals Wins Opening Skifnish
 By Narrow Margin

The baseball season was opened auspiciously enough yesterday when in the presence of crowd that to tailed several hundred Yohe's profes- sionals won in the opening skirmish nine to seven, from the O'Donovan team. There was nothing particular. ly startling about the game-nothing of this kind was expected The play. CTS had winter kinks in their arms that prevented mid-season pitching and throwing, and there was still a little frost in thier batting eyes which prevented any plethoric hitting. Their wind was a little shy and their legs a little stiff, which served to limit activity at base running. But all in all he game had much interest for the spectators.
 Most interest naturally attached to the performance of the new men oi whom there were five-Ozee, Deming and Albright on Yohe's team, and Ar chuleta and Marquard on O'Dono- vans. Out Of this quintet 1t Is safe to say that at least one star win be developed and that star will be seen guarding first base for Yohe. He is Ozee and in yesterdays game showed to fine advantage on the initial sack, while it is expected that when the game begins to warm up his batting eye will be good enough to solve the delivery of any pitcher that will sum. mer in these parts. The other men of Yohe's team had little chance to show what they could do. Deming caught for a time and then went to the out, field. All bright played one or the outer gardens.
 Archuleta covered short for O'Don- ovaRs team in an acceptable manner for this stage of the season. He dis played quickness in his motions, and when the season is older will prob ably have his throwing arm working all right. Marquard acted creditabIy in center. Badger" Iyerson, wnc played first for O'Donovan, had the crowd with him yesterday, negotiating cleverly several hard throws and get ting his share of the hits. Doran and Jack Kelly did the catching.
 Of the old professionals Yohe was in the best form. The pitching was done by Walters and Bradford, Wal ters working for the O'Donovan team They contented themselves with lob ping them over, though "Rube' put a little English on some of his offer ings.
 For next Sunday Yohe plans tc have a visiting team at Sportsman's park and to that end is in correspond ence with Tucson, Bisbee and Cana nea. If it develops that no out-of town team can be brought here anoth- CT game with the O'Donovan tean will be framed up.-Douglas Dispatch

NEW OIL COMPANY FORMED AT DOUGLAS New Corporation Will Operate On Land In Mckinley
 County, N M,
(Douglas Dispatch.l

The Southwestern Oil company, with headquarters in Douglas, 6 new enterprise organized under the laws of this territory and headed by some of the best known local people, has been launched by J. A. Lewandowski The company has 2520 acres of oil lands in the county of Mckinley, New Mexico, and the purpose or the com pany is to develop the field.
 The fields have been carefully ex- amined by several oil experts and found to be Of very promising charac- ter. From stratification down they show all the points generally expected by oil men, and the officers have no doubt but what with the necessary development oil will be produced.
 The company, consisting of James Wood, president; J. A. Lewandowski, vice president and general manager; w. H. Worthington, secretary and treasurer; w B. Gohring, chief geolo- gist of the Calumet and Arizona Min ing company, of Bisbee. and J.. T. Hood, cashier of the Miners and Mer- chants bank, of Bisbee, are all known to be energetic and efficient men.
 Samples shown in Douglas certainly look very encouraging and show strong saturation of oil. In many places, it is said, oil can be obtained by breaking in to the oil sand exposed on the surface.
 Oil is becoming the fuel of the country, and iE this territory any amount of it. would find ready sale. The fields of this company are 600 miles from Douglas.

 Last evening at about 5 o'clock Pa, Neelan, formerly a bartender in a local saloon. was stabbed six times by Ed. Helam. The aifray occurred at the saloon of Charles Hull in Con Luis. and, according to Nselan, was unproYoked.

Following this remark, He lam stabbed the latter five times in the breast and once in the left arm and ran out of the place.
 NeelaU' stayed in the neighborhood of Don Luis until about or 10 o'clock, when he came to Lowell, but did not seek medical aid. Early this morning he appeared at his boarding house and his condition was then for the first time known. Medical attention was at once secured. and it was found that the five wounds in the left breast almost reached the heart, lack ing but half inch of entering that organ, His watch received one G the knife blows and it is thought that this blow broke tle blade.

CONTRACTOR LEAVES
 IN BAD STANDING
Prominent Builder of Clifton
 Leaves His Creditors In the LurCh.

CLIFTON, Arizona, Maech 10.-On last Friday morning E. S. Mer- ritt, who has been engaged in the contracting and building business in Clifton the past year or more, board ed the regular passenger train and when seen by some of his friends in- formed them that he was going to Duncan on business and that he would be back in a day or two. He has resided here two or three years and there was no suspicion that he intend ed tp jump the town. He stopped in Duncan and engaged in a poker game long enough to lose what money he had, after which he got a lunch and hit the railroad track a-foot, since which time he has not been seen. The day after his departure an inVes- tigation was made into his business affairs and it was learned that he was badly in debt and owed every body in town He had collected mon ey from number of people for whom he was building houses and had failed to pay lumber bills or anything else and unless captured by the officers his return to Clifton will extend into the far distant years. .-..... s.. He has been doing a considerable amount of work in this district and the only reason for his action is the fact that he indulged too frequently in the pasteboard pleasure, which In- terfered considerably with his . tsi- ness and Docketbook.
 There is a vast difference between him and almost everybody with whom he had contracts. but so far no com plaint has as yet been sworn odt against him. Misplaced confidence seems to be the extent of his deed so far, although it sems likely that he has skinned a number of Clifton people.

|OElv|NG INTO RATES AFFECTING PHOENIX
 Marlcopa Commercial Club Gathers information About Railroad Charges.

After much hard work, Traffic Man ager Jones of the Maricopa Commer- cial club at Phoenix has prepared rate sheets which compare the freight rates into Phoenix from eastern points with those to the Pacific coast. Jones has forwarded these rate sheets, together with a long letter, setting forth the situation, to Edward Chambers and H. A. Jones, freight managers for the Santa Fe and South ern Pacific in San Francisco. The letter is a strong statement of the facts.
 While the rate sheet is designed only to show by actual comparison the difference between Cal ifornia and Arizona rates on some of the principal commodities, over 100 kinds of freight are named coming from the east and over thirty coming from the coast, the former showing rates to Phoenix to be from 100 to 300 per cent in excess of rates to California, a 800 to 1000 miles greater haul.
 The sheet shows also that many classes of freight are hauled from California to Colorado, Kansas City, Chicago and New York and in some instances across the Atlantic to Eu- rope for one-half less than is charged from the same points to the Salt Riv- CT valley.
 Grain and wool sacks in which lo- cal farmers and sheepmen are inter ested cost s1.27 per 100 pounds from San Francisco to Phoenix and but 55 cents per hundred to Colorado and 70 , cents to Chicago.
 The rate sheet is a graphic illustra- ton, showing the excess tax imposed in transportation charges upon the people of the valley as compared with farming and live stock districts in California.
