NEW YORK. Jan. 23.-Less than
- hours after the crash between IN"
ocean liners Republic and Florida. OFF
the Nantucket shoals. which eventual
" sent the enc to the bottom and re-
duced the other to state OF stag
sering helplessness, the survivors OF
this thrilling deep sea tragedy nave
found haven at last.
At nightfall 1863 passengers from
the two vessels were safe in this pert,
brought there by the Baltic. Will"
nearing it were the rescued officers
and crew of the; Republic safe on
board the derelict destroyer Seneca.
to which they were transferred from
the revenue cutter Gresham after
staying up to the last moment by
their sinking ship.
At her dock in Brooklyn was the
battered Florida. aboard which her
crew had remained throughout her
trying experiences.
Republic Lies at Bottom.
Only the Inflated Republic was
wanting to complete the list. She
lies beneath 3S fathcms of water
l., miles south Of Nantucket South
Shoals lightship.
Frenzied cheers from the thousands
at the pier when she locked greeted
the arrival Of the Baltic. tears OF
thankfulness were shed. affectionate
greetings were exchanged and only
here and there did note of sadness
intrude itself upon the scene.
Following the Baltic up the harboc
was the liner Florida, battered almost
to the sinking point herself, by the
force of the blow she dealt the Repub.
lie. and bearing the bodies Of her own
three dead and the injured members
of her crew.
The Republics passengers told
graphic details of the crash, of the
excitement on beard. of the bravery of
the officers, the good behavior of the
crew and the efficient work of res
cue.
Two Versions as to Florida.
There are two versions Of what
has happened on the bridge of the
Florida when the Republic doomed up
in front Of her through the morning
fog: From some who had been en-
board the Florida and were brought
into port by the Baltic. it was learned
that something went wrong with the
FIorida's steering wheel when the col
lision was imminent.
One story had 1t that a quartermas
ter had the wheel when the cOmmaD
der yelled for it 10 be jammed to
staTbcard.
He rut it -tc port instead. and the
liners crashed into each other,
Another version of the story i:
that the man dropped his wheel in
panic when danger impeded.
commsnder Attacked ousrtermaster
Beth versions agree in saving that
tic commander fcllci the quartcrmas
ter with an iron spike following what
he must have considered the seaman's
rccreancy.
An injured quar:crmastcr from the
Florida was brought TO port Gu the
Baltic today.
He stourIy asserted that he was
not a, the wheel when the accidcn;
occurred.

Mining Law Regarding
 Assessments

There seems to be a miSunder- ing on the part of some of the claim owners in regard to the nature of the Arizona mining To. cation law as amended by the last legislature. The new law, which admits of an eight.foot discovery shaft, instead of re- quiring that one be ten feet in depth, as heretofore, applies only to location or initial work and not to annual or assessment work.
 The regulation requiring $10O worth of work per claim is still in force; it is a federal law which cannot be amended except by special enactment by congress.
 The new territorial Jaw is as follows;
 IAN ACT to Regulate Loca- tions of Mines, Amending Sec tion 3234 Sub. 2, and 3237 of the Revised Statutes of Arizona, 1901.
 Be it enacted by the legisla- tive assembly of the territory of Arizona:
 "Section 1, Section 3234, sub division 2. to read as follows; 'To sink a discovery shaft in the claim to depth of at least eight feet from the lowest part of the rim of the shaft at the surface, and deeper if necessary, until there is disclosed in said shaft mineral in place.
 "Section ?, Section 3237, Sub division z, to read as follows:
 "Any open cut, adit or tunnel, which shall be made as provided for, as part of the location of 8 lode mining claim, and which will be equal in amount of work to shaft eight deep and four feet wide by six feet long, and which shall cut @ lode or mineral in in place at depth of 10 feet from the surface, shall be equiv alent to a shaft sunk from the surface.
 "All acts and parts of acts in conflict with the provisions of this act are hereby repealed.
 'sSection 4. This act shall take effect and be in force from and after it's passage.
 Approved March IS, 1909"

BaIlinger Ruling is important

An important ruling by Secre- tary of the Interior Ballinger that appears to completely nulli- fly the rule heretofore enforced ps to the amount of desert land an entryman is ultimately enti- tied to has been received in Phoenix.
 It is held that 'one who holds land under an unperfected des- ert land entry is not the propri- etOr thereof within the meaning of the statute, holding disquali- fled to make homestead entry one who is the proprietor of more than 160 acres of land"
 This apparently indicates that, although an entryman has made an entry of 160 acres of home stead land, he still may take a full 320 acres of desert land. The decision appears in the ad- vance signatures of volume 38 of land decisions just issued.
 As to those who have already filed on only 16O acres of desert land, the effect of this decision is an open question. The law per mits only one desert land entry, and whether those who already have exercised their privilege and taken 160 acres will have the privilege of taking another 1G0 acres will rest with the general land office.
 The department might recog- nize the fact that those who filed on only I60 acres were not ap- prised of the fact at the time and allow another 16O to be selected, or 1t might be held that the right did not exist prior to the de- cision.
 Formerly the maximum a. mount of land which one man ultimately could hold was 320 acres-a homestead entry of 1GO acres and desert entry of 160 acres.
 Entrymen who have not exer- cised their right to file on public lands are entitled under the de- cision to 160 acres more than was the rule heretofore enforced, making the maximum which one man may ultimately hold 480 in stead of 320 acres.

HAMILTON STATE
 HOOD BILL
Satisfactory to AriZ0na and New
 Mexico.

With the exception of changes made to conform to the Sugges- tion of President Taft in his re- cent message that Arizona and New Mexico adopt state consti- tutions before electing state offi- cers, Chairman Hamilton of the committee on territories intro duced in the house of represent atives practically the same state hood bill as he did in the last session of congress.
 Hamilton's bill provides that the governor of each territory shall, thirty days after the ap- proval of the enabling act, order an election for delegates to a convention to be held within 60 days after the approval of the biEl, to meet at the capital the fourth Monday after election.
 An election for the ratification of the constitution will be held the 6Fst Tuesday after the first Monday in November.
 State officers, the legislature and two representatives in con gress for New Mexico and one for Arizona, and for county and other officers, will be elected not less than 90 nor more than 120 days after the ratification of the constitution.
 Several sections of land in each township are given for public education, with lieu land selections.
 Twenty per cent of the gross receipts of the forest reserves and 3 per cent from pubic lands go to the territories. Lands for the university are increased from 54,0OO to 12O,0OO acres; schools, $50, ,0O0; school lands east of the 1O5th meridian to sell at S5 an acre, west at S3; if under an ir- rigation project, at $25.
 One hundred thousand dollars is allowed for election expenses.
 The Arizona part of the bill is nearly the same as that of New Mexico.
 The capitals are to be at Santa Fe and Phoenix till 1915.

Arizona Heads the List

Statistics showing the amount of money per capita spent by the states and territories Of the union prepared by the New York Sun, shows Arizona has no need to be ashamed of the rank which she attains by comparison with the states.
 None of tue Southern states, according to the figures, expends as much per capita per year as do the citizens of Arizona. This territory is shown to set aside each year, for each school child, the sum of $40. il.
 Ibis is just $5.16 more than Oklahoma and Mexico combined spend for the education of their youth in the public schools.

INTERESTING LETTER
From a Former Yuma Girl


 Spokane, Wash, Dec. 3, 'O9. Editor Sentinel:
 Just a few lines to my friends through your valuable paper.
 This is a real wintry day at SpOkane-the thermometer reg isters 6 below freezing and the sky is cloudy. Snow is falling fast and promises a deep fall be- fore night, and tomorrow we can take a sleigh ride, covered with our furs and muffs. How 1 do wish some of my valley friends were here to stay with me over Xmas and pass a real snow Xmas, with all the trim mingS-sucb as turkey and cran- berries, and a sleigh ride after ward to the country behind one of Spokane's fine teams-and she certainly does have them. We would return in time to visit the turkey again; and then take in one of the star plays at one of the opera houses, of which Spo- kane has four and another now being built. Would these plans not be grand? Now don't all speak at once. Of course, after all this round I would deliver
