CHICACO'S SUBWAY
Work Begun on Great Underground

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Real work upon
subway plans for Chicago has begun
preparatory work. however. for the
subway task is a huge one involving
now the charting of every water and
gas pipe, every telephone. telegraph.
light and signal wire conduit in the
down town district OF these the CITY
now has no record whatever. and as
the network Of these pipes and con.
duits makes almost a solid mesh at
the street intersections. so that or,
can walk across upon them when the
paving is torn up, this phase of the
preparatory work is intricate and
daunting. Meanwhile the subways oi
astern and European cities are being
investigated by three experts who seek
TO point out the mistakes made else
whree as well as the admirable feat
ures. BY this research work Chicago
expects to excel New York in subway
building and avoid the blunders which
are already troubling Manhattan. II
Is expected that all the pipes and
wires now in the streets will be placed
in the subway the immediate need for
which is for the relief of traffic con
gestion. The streets down town have
become badly oyercrowded and at the
present rate Of population growth the
condition in ten years will be intol-

CAPT. WHEELER
GETS BUNCH Of
STOLEN HORSEE
Ranger Commander Rounds
Up Stolen Stock Down in So
nora and Is On His Way Up
to kacO.

Capt. Harry Wheeler. of the hang
ers, Is on his way up from the state
of Sonora with a bunch OF stolen
horses. He left about a week ago go
ing 10 point near AocteZuma- The
brands on the horses are not known to
the officers, but all are American
horses. The fact that Captain Wheel
er is on his way back with the buncn
is conclusive evidence that they were
stolen stock and were taken from
this side OF the line. Only brief in
formation that he was on his way
up with the horses was received in
this city yesterday morning. No de
tails Of how the horses were rounded
up are given. One of the horses is a
dark sorrel, weight $50, branded on
the left thigh with a mark similar TO
one side of a parenthesis run hori-
zontal on the flank under which is a
circle within which at the bottom is
an inverted Y.
Capt. Wheeler is anxious for any
person who has lost stock to report
the fact to him and look the horses
over when he arrives at Naco, which
will possibly be today or tomorrow.
Tie date OF his return, however, is not
certain. The horse described above
was given to the Presidente at Mocte-
yuma by George Arnett, who was
shot several weeks ago at Lowell in
the act of stealing two horses. The
Project at Moctezuma did all IN his
power to assist Captain Wheeler and
his men in getting the stolen horses.

CAhAhEA At Ell PASO

Out For Blood,

Ell PASO, June 5.-The strong
Cananea baseball club will line up
against the local team today and
Sunday in this city. The games prom
Use TO be the most interesting thai
have ever been pulled of on the local
diamond. The Canalea team has de-
feaJed the FL Paso club three games
out OF four, but Manager BohlingeE-
has strengthened his team since the
defeats and he feels confident that
when the smoke of battle has cleared
he will have two Cananea scalpS
dangling from his belt. Manager
GARLIC of the Cananea team has one
of the strongest clubs ever formed IN
the southwest and he deserves all the
credit in the world for his success in
the baseball field, as he is a hustler,
and he has put winning team in the
copper camp, where formerly they
had nothing but a losing aggregation
Il will be remembered that two
weeks ago the local team iourneyed
TO Cananea and gave the fans there
the two best exhibitions of baseball
ever seen in the camp. II was a f1gnt
to the last ditch, and though the
Manana Boys finally won out, the
defeats that they dished out were no
disgrace to the local boys.
Bohfnger thinks there Is no doubt
but that the coming games viii be
just as hard fought and closely Cur
tested as the games last Saturday
and Sunday between the Morenci
team and the Home Guards.
