Railroad Wants to Build

As the Southern Pacific officials hold that the only feasible road through the box canyon is the low line, which can not be used in ease reseryiOr IS built at the old government dam site, they are much interested in the action of the chamber of commerce in the matter of recommendation regarding the res ervOir project.
 Attorney Gibson Taylor, represent ing the Randolph system, arrived here Sunday night and was busily engaged yesterday in probing the sentiments of the people of this city, with regard to their feelings in the matter.
 As the rule, he has found that the people of this city are in favor of both projects, but favor the railroad rather than the dam, if the matter should come to the point where only one project could be carried out, he states.
 Would Block Main Line
 eff the San Carlos reservoir project is carried out as it is now planned, 1t will block all construction work through the Box canyon, on the main east and west line, which it is planned to build from the end of the Phoenix x Eastern line, through to San Carlos and oh to a point near Lordsburg,' said MT. Fay Tor in speaking of the matter to the Silver Belt yesterday.
 "While the government was planning to build the San Carlos reservior some years ago. line through the upper part of the Box canyon was surveyed The grade was found to be prohibitiEe, When the dam site was abandoned as however, a new survey was made lower down in the canyon.
 "The same conditions exist now that were in effect when the first survey was made. If the reservior is built on the abandoned dam site, the water will back up over the present bridge of the Gila Valley line for a depth of about thirty feet This will not only block the road through the Box canyon, but neeessitate changes in the present line which will lengthen the trancks about ten miles and incur a cost of about million and half An indemnity of this amount would, of course, have to be put up by the promoters of the irri

 Attorneys Hill and Flannigan argued an application for q writ of mandate compelling Judge Thomas to allow the woman trial by jury, before Judge Lewis yesterday afternoon.

CALENDAR WILL BE REVISED THIS
 MORNING

All cases pending before the district court will be called by Judge E. w Lewis at 9:30 this morning, for the pur- pose of rearranging the calendar
 This action has been found necessary by reason of the fact that the calendar is at present in a very crowded condi- ton and numerous changes will have to he made.
 As the calendar now stands, twen- ty-six cases remain to be tried this month. Of this number, there are twelve civil jury cases, two criminal jury cases, and sixteen actions which will be heard by the court.
 The remaining court days during the month will probably not be more than sufficient to dispose of the jury trials and it is probable that all non-jury trials will go over until the first oI the year.
 All attorneys who are interested in cases now pending should be in court this mor9ing at the opening of the ses- sion.

"The opinion of practically all of the people of Globe with whom have discussed this matter is in favor of the railroad, rather than the dam. Ow- ing to the variation of the water in the Gila river, the irrigation project will never be an electric power project as power cannot be obtained during the dry season in sufficient quantities to warrant the expense of installing a power plant. All of the benefits of the irrigation project would be derived by counties other than Gila, except g rev enue which would come to Globe during the construction of the dam.
 ''On the other hand, the construc- tion of the new road will put Globe within thirty miles of the proposed main east and west line and directly on the proposed Durango line, upon which work has already been started.
 "The construction of the road through Box canyon is absolutely as sured, if n permit for it's construction can be secured from the interior de pertinent. The rails have been ordered and construction will begin as soon as this permit is granted, provided it is for the route mapped out by the low grade survey

DEMANDED
 SURRENDER IF zELAYA
Revolutionist Leader Says Nothing Can Stop Him
 From Victory

WASHINGTON, D. C., December 13. In dispatch from General Estrada, received today, he relates some of the details of the recent meeting between his representatives and those of Pres. ident Zelaya, in which he demanded sur. render of the Zelayan troops. lie says General Vasquez, acting for Helaya, re. fused the demand and said Zelaya would resign his office in favor of Gen eral Madriz.
 The proposition of placing Dr. Madriz at the head of the Nicaraguan govern. ment is said not to meet with any more favor from the Washington officials than from the rebel leaders in Nicar- agua It has been stated that, though Madriz is recognized here as an able man, be is persona non grata with this government, principally because of his action last year in reporting to the United States as member of the Cent. ral American court of justice that Sal vador and Guatemala intended to stir up war.
 These representations later were found by Secretary Root to be without foundation. A dispatch today from Dr. Guerra, Niearaguan representative of the revOlutiOnists in Costa Rica, to Senor Castrillo confirms President Ze- laya s intention to make Madrlz presi. dent. Dr. Guerra declares Zelaya s in tentiOns are for "fuTthcr motives of domination. l"
 The attitude of Mexico in regard to Dr. Madriz is not known.
 Estrada says in his cablegram today that the revolutionists are still firm iu their purpose to name him president, and nothing will swerve them from their object.

Railroad Engineer Says No Possibility of Getting

For the purpose of looking over lha san Carlos district, to determine wheth. CT or not the construction of the pro posed San Carlos reservior will interfere with the building of the Southern Pa cifc line through Box canyon, and if 50, which individual project would be of the most importance to the Globe dis. trict, committee of the chamber of commerce will visit that district today
 This committed, made up of J. x Purdum, l.. l.. Henry and j. F. -Heeht. man, was appointed at the last meeting of the chamber of commerce. This ac. tion was taken when a resolution was brought up by J. N. Purdum, which res, olutiOn, if adopted, would place the chamber on record as protesting against the building of the railroad on the low grade line on the ground that it would interfere with the reservoir project.
 As the question is one of great impor. tance, which is deserving of careful consideration, the matter was not acted upon, but the above named committee was appointed to make thorough in vestigation of the matter.
 It is expected that this commttee will be ready to report back to the chamber within the next few days, re- garding its recommendations in the rla,-
