posed of the presidents of the com mercial club and the board Of trade. two directors of that body. six direc- tors Of the commercial club and two others who are directors oI both or ganizations. Later in the session Mayor COggins came in by invitation. President Foss of the board of trade announced that the purpose of the meeting was to look into the contract which was said to be inimical to public policy. The secretary of the cOmmer- cidl club reported the substance of his interview with MT. Stannard.
 Pursuant to a motion q committee from the meeting called on Mir. Stan nard where through Dr. Foss a request Was made 10 see the agreement above referred 10. and be allowed to take a copy of it. Mir. Stannard declined to give a copy of the agreement without authority of Mir. Hill stating however that nothing could happen to change the status of affairs for two or three months. or until a contract was signed Il is understood, however that the committee was given the courtesy of inspecting the agreement. Returning to the club offices the following tel egram was sent, signed by the presi- dents of the club and board of trade. and by the mayor and to which no re- ply has been received:
 Phoenix. Ariz., April r., 1908. The Secretary of the Interior,
 Washington. D. c.
 We, representing the city govern ment of Phoenix, it's commercial inter ests and it's taxpayers as We'll as the farmers Of this valley only learned to- day of the existence of an agreement between the reclamation service and the local electric lighting company whereby June Of last year an exclusive agreement for electricity for lighting purposes Was granted such company at a nominal rate. We protest against the execution of any contract under this agreement as contrary to public policy and would ask that no further action be taken until the public Of Phoenix and the Salt river valley can be heard. This telegram is authorized at joint meeting of the undersigned.
 A committee was appointed by the joint meeting. instructed to wait On the city council and request the appoint ment of an officer for the purpose Of inspecting weights. measures. scales, etc. having in view if desirable at later date some regulation among oth- CT things of the charges for lights and other public utilities.
 Another motion directed a conference with District Attorney Bullard and City Attorney Prescott. in respect of the provisions Of this contract, and any other contracts and franchises that might affect the city in it's dealings

THE HOUSE

Washington. April 21. Although several hours were consumed in roll calls. the day in the house was one Of comparative activity and several measures of importance were put through. The principal of these per haps, was the resolution of Speaker Cannon, providing for an inrestiga- ton of the paper trust. and in pursu- ance of it's provisions the speaker an- nounced as the committee of six who will conduct the investigation, Messrs- Mann, of Illinois; Miller of Kansas: Stafford of Wisconsin: Ramon of Ohio; Sims of Tennessee, and Ryan of New York. The democrats as a unit voted against the resolution, af- ter q declaration by Mir. Williams that he did not believe q sincere effort would be made to arrive at the truth.
 Another measure passed was one in which importers generally are inter- ested which practically creates a board of general appraisers. New York as a trial court in matters per taining to customs, and appeals there from are to be taken to the circuit court of appeals instead of the circuit court, as heretofore.
 Interest in the proceedings attached to a letter from Secretary Loeb to MT. Sims, of Tennessee, asserting that 4700 shares of Washington Street rail way stock in his name. with the eX- ception of 100 shares. belonged to oth- CTS. and denying that he in any man. ner eXerted the influence of his of ficial position in behalf of the com pany of which he is director. An un- named senator was also referred to by MT. Sims who sent similar communi- cation declaring that the stock in his name was simply held as trustee. that he never participated in legislation re- lating to the street railways of Wash ington.
 All bills passed were considered un- der q suspension of the rules.

 OF BAITLtSHIP FLEET

l think this voyage has done more for the navy than anything that has been undertaken" He declared that even should the Philippines be abandoned, that action would not make any differ ence in the need of a fleet.
 Senator Beveridge advocated q greater fleet than the United States now has. The administration favors keeping the Philippines until the peo- pie there are fit for elf-government: in any event it will be necessary to keep the islands for many years Be- fore the fleet started he said there had been talk of war, but after 1t reached the Pacific waters such talk decreased and now had almost van ished.
 When Mir. Beveridge concluded his remarks there was an outburst of ap- plause in the galleries anc Mr Hale arose.
 Now" said Mir. Hale, 'let us see if we can make some progress with the bill"
 The senator spent almost two hours reading the bill and discussing its pro- visions. The only amendment of i'm portance agreed upon was one includ- ing retired officers of the navy in the benefits of the 20 per cent increase of salary provided for officers and the active list.

law association. It was the subject Of much spirited discussion in the com mittee Today's action in recommend- the minority of the house and some surprise on the republican side. the republican chairman of the committee Mir Gaines. of West Virginia. having recently expressed himself as opposed to some of the provisions Of the measure
 The bill provides that "all contrib utions hereafter made to political campaigns engaged in the promotion Of the election Of representatives and delegates to congress are United States presidential electors, at which dele gates shall be voted for. shall be re ported by such committees to the clerk of the house of representatives '"
 The bill was so amended that any person may. in connection with such election pay from his own private funds for the purpose of influencing or controlling in two or more states the result Of an election, at which rep resentatives of congress are to be be elected, and his travelling expenses
 The provision allowing him pay for writing. printing, or circulating any letter. circular or other publication whereby he may state his position or views upon any question" was strick en out.

may be things in connection with the contract that they do not understand and that may be illuminated by MT. Hill when he returns. In any event the gentlemen who are conducting the present investigation are representa- tives of the Maricopa County COmmer- cial club. the Phoenix ana Maricopa County Board of Trade and the mayor and other members of the city govern ment. an array that commands the re- spect and careful attention of every citizen.
 This subject is in reality a revival of an old one which had a brief hour in the local press last July. When the contract was signed. The Republican gave the news and substance of it to the world in its issue of July g. An afternoon paper taking its cue from that publication. gave vent to a very uncalled for assault on Engineer Hill and the reclamation service, which it later corrected by a quite full and com plete explanation of its attitude" aft or Mir Hin returned 10 the city and had an interview with the editor of that paper. The incident was dropped with that publication and has not been since referred to until last week.
 Last week a director of the com mercial club speaking of. this contract informed the traffic manager of the club that he had heard that the pro- visions of this contract might be detri mental to tine city and valley and ask ed him to look into it. He went to the offices Of the reclamation service and Mir Hill being absent asked MT Stan nard next in authority to show him the contract Mr. Stannard hesitated. feeling that perhaps it would be ex- ceeding his authority. He told him. though that he did not think there was contract. merely an agreement for contract dated June 9. 1907. He in formed his visitor that the agreement was for ten years and was for the furnishing Of 1.500 kilowats at 1 12 cents per kilowatt. Mir Stannard. ac- cording to his interviewer. was asked if the city could buy power on the same basis and replied that it could not as the contract was exclusive.
 This interview was reported to the directors of the club and created con siderable interest. Friday the matter was laid before a joint meeting com

CT. That feature is eliminated here. The government transmission lines will furnish power all over the valley 10 farmers. and to industries requiring 2 it. The only reservation of exclusive ness is in the little square representing the city of Phoenix. Out of this little section will come every industry that requires more than 100 kilowatts. The city can secure power direct also if it desires it to run its water plant. There is nothing left in the way of a monopoly. except the house lighting and any company that chooses to put in half million dollar plant and be- come competitor has the opportun- ity and privilege of doing so.
