Lieutenant Paul Graetz Of the Ger
man army, who recently crossed AZ.
RIGA n an automobile. has launched d
novel project for a go-as-you-please
race across Africa. Competitors win
be allowed to walk or use any other
means Of lOcomotion known to man
except a railway.
0raetx, who will enter the contest
himself, agrees not to employ his auto
mobile, with which It took him $50 days

may resort TO flying machine. bal
loon, dlEigible alFship, motorcycle, b.
cycle. horse, donkey, zebra. jinriklsha
Or native drawn cart. For the pres
ant be h not saying which. He plans
that the race shall start on March /,
1910. at some point on the east coast
not farther south than the twentieth
degree OF north latitude.
The lieutenant thinks that the con-
test. apart from its sporting aspect,
ought to produce valuable scientific
and economic results. He hopes that
adventurous Americans may be IN
duced to enter his transafrican scram-
hla.

cot IN the country where they lived
and where they had acquired consid-
erable wealth and property. When
last ! saw Mr. Cannon. in the end Of
October. he had just returned from
his plantation at San Carlos. part Of
which had been destroyed by agents
Of Zelaya. He was going to Join Gen.
eral Estrada. bis personal friend. and
he told me be had been appointed to a
post on the generals star.
"MF. Groce. too, had very valuable
property in Nicaragua. valued approx
imateiy at 100000. with about as
much more distributed In Honduras.
San Salvador and other republics. He
was an expert mining engineer and
used his technical knowledge to the
advantage of General Estrada.
Both GFoce and Cannon were cap
turcd after a decisive encounter be-
tween EstFada's forces and those Of
Zelaya near the San Juan river. ze-
laya's force. contrary to the treaty pro-
vision. deliberately crossed the river
into Costa Rica. Fecrossed II at an un-
expected point, and. appearing in the
vanguard Of General Estrada's force,
put It to flight
Eager to De Rid Of Cannon"
Personally have no doubt that
both Cannon and Groce were taken In
the act Of laying mines under the river
and adjacent roads. But az they were
recognized officers OF the revolutionary
party II was utterly unwarranted 10
lead them to execution. never be-
lieyed they had fair court martial,
but that they were killed on the per-
sonal order OF Zelaya. A cable in
cipher received from friends in Mica
ragua two days after the execution
tells me that Zelaya refused 70 take
into consideration q suggestion OF his
own general in chief that their SEN
fences be commuted.
'zelaya had repeatedly shown him
self eager to be rid Of Cannon. Can
NON was captured and condemned to
death IN the last revolution, but
through the Intervention Of Mr.. Greg
DRY. the American minister. bis SEN
tence was committed. They connscat-
ed about half his property. Mr.. Can
non frequently showed me letters in
which were plain proofs Of Zelaya's
luminosity TO him. he had not a
chance Of escape
Mr.. Holland declared that most Of
the American residents In Nicaragua
had either left the country as unsafe
or retired to their plantations or mines.
Most Of them. be said. were hoping
that the United States would take
charge OF the situation ana restore or
der for the proper development OF the
cOuntFy's many resources.

Gems Leroy Cannon and Leonard
Groee by order Of President Zelaya.
In severing relations with the present
government In control at Managua
Secretary OF State Knox took the flrst
step toward furnishing zaIaya for the
Cannon and Groce execution and for
repeated violations Of the conventions
Of the Central American peace confer
ence, which was fosteFed By the Unit
ed States and Mexico.
Mr., Cannon and Mr.. GrOce, who
were shot TO death BY order OF Presl-
dent Zelaya for participation In the
revolution In Nicaragua, were not IRE
sponsible Adventures. but large prop
erty holders In that and adjoining
Central American republics, according
20 q. Spencer Holland, who has con-
siderable property and mining inter.
eatn In Nicaragua and who returned 20
New York city few days ago, when
the situation OF foreign residents not
friendly to the zelaya regime became
precarious in Nicaragua.

According to Mr. Holland. both Can.
non and Groce had been constantly

by order Of zelaya after a plea for
c0mmntation had been made by Zela-
ya's own general In chief.
Both In the capture OF the two Amer.
leans, which was effected through an
incursion Of Zelaya's forces into Costa
Rican territory. and In their execution
without proper trial. Mr.. Holland de.
clares. Zelaya violated the provisions
q the treaty Of zoos between the Cen.
trail American republics, OF which Mex

antors.
The present Intervention Of the
united States Is due SOLELY" said Mr..
Holland. Ito the violation by Zolaya

eeed. zelaya has frequently broken
various provisions Of the treaty and

Il was because OF Zelaya's insulting

 Tempe News: The work of har- vesting one of the largest beet crops of this section has been started on the Thomas Dennis place south of Tempe. Mir. Dennis has 300 acres of beets in cultiva- tion and it is said the yield will be enormous, although for a time 1t seemed probable that a great loss would be experienced on account of the scarcity of water, but the in- crease came in time to save the crop. The sugar beets will be loaded at the Hanson spur and shipped to the factory at Glendale.
 Douglas International: Douglas is to have another railroad. The road will run across the states of Sonora and Chihuahua, Mexico, close to the international line, making connecting link between the Naco-Cananea road at Del Rio, the Rio Grande, Sierra Madre & Pacific road at or near Guzman station, the Mexican Central rail- road at some point not yet deter mined, and with the Sonora branch of the Southern Pacific at Imuris. The line will touch at Agua Prieta, Sonora, just across the line from Douglas, so that Douglas will de- rive practically all of the benefits to result.
 Silver Belt: Fire of unknown origin destroyed the grocery store and feed barn of Webster & Go early Saturday morning, entailing a loss estimated at $10,000. The flames gained strong headway be. fore they were discovered, and the efforts of the city and Gila Valley Globe & Northern railway fire de- partments were ineffective in sav- ing the contents of the buildings They were successful, however, ir keeping the fire from spreading tc the adjoining buildings, which would have occasioned heavy loss The principal loss, outsid, of the buildings, is the result o the destruction of large quantity of grain which was stored in thc burned barn.

the work could be done much more
satisfactorily and much more honest
" By a commission, for the plain rea-
son that the commission would live
legally until the money was expended
and would not be retarded in its work
as the trustees would be who only
hold Office a given length of time.
With the trustees managing 1t the
chances are that different men would
present their views yearly and the
result would be that with everybody
taking a hack at the work 1t would
never be performed as well as it
would be otherwise Those present
included Delmer Runkle, cashier of
the Peoples National bank, who
agreed with Mr.. Geer, saying that the
commission would be held responsible
for every penny until the entire sum
was spent, and this on the face of
things would ensure the taxpayers
that there was some one who could
be held responsible at all times while
the plan was being furthered. Among
the others at the hearing were Walter
