FREIGHT RATE IS CUT
ON GLASS FRUIT JARS

The railroads have been notified of
revision of the tariff sheet which affects
the rate of freight on glass fruit jars
to Utah common points from Chicago,
Missouri river points and Mississippi riv-
er points. This reduction is announced
by the Mississippi Freight associa-
ton and anticipates a great benefit to
housewives the coming season. 1t is based
upon the prospects of an unusual demand
this coming season for fruit jars in Utah,
and one of the railroad representatives
here stated yesterday that he believed
it would be followed shortly by a reduc-
ton in the freight rate from the same
points on tin cans. The Utah representa-
tives of several lines have been recon-
aending a reduction on tin fruit cans
for some time on the petitions of can
neries in Utah. The new rate on glass
jars to Utah common points. as compared
with the old rate, follows;
Old rate. New rate.
From Missouri river $50. 1.1e 50
From Mississippi river 49, f-25 1.0l

 A letter was received inviting the council to cooperate with Seattle committees in arranging a Phoenix day for the Alaska Yukon exposition, the date set being August 9. The council did not think the Phoenix ex- cursiOnists would be so numerous as to warrant action just now.
 A MT. Hatch appeared before the council, submitting figures on the cost of erecting sign posts with metal street names on each of the 353 street intersections in the city north of Lincoln street, the posts to be of iron, wood or partly of each as the city might elect. He also made a proposition for supplying the city with metal garbage boxes to the number of twenty in the business sec tion, at about one-third their actual cost, providing he be allowed to use the four sides of them for advertising purposes.

might be timely to suggest that should new standpipe be built under any circumstances it would give a more uniform pressure on the pipe system to have it in the western part of the city somewhere. The company's proposition is as follows:
 To the Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen: The Pacific Gas and Electric Company, now doing business in Phoenix. has on its property a well 195 feet deep, from which it is pump ing approximately 1.500 gallons of wa ter per minute. This well has been pumped steadily day and night for the last three and a half years, with no sign of the water supply diminishing but the water plane in that tme has risen 7ls feet. By chemical analysis of the University of Tucson, this wa ter shows considerable better qualities for a domestic supply for city pur- poses than that which is now being used. Therefore, the Pacific Gas and Electric Company begs to submit to this honorable body the following proposition:
 F'irst-That said company will drill such wells as are necessary. |. Second-That it will install such pumping apparatus as will at all times take care of the maximum demand of this city.
 Third--That it will operate such pumps continuously. and give the city such service as it will demand, sup plying pressure to be governed by height of standpipe.
 Fourth-That pumps shall be of such a character that they will pump direct into the mains with standpipe valve closed in order to give pressure in case of fire.
 Fifth-That the company will use all means in its power to give a good and uninterrupted service. but will not be responsible for any interruption caused by an act of God or the ele- ments.
 Sixth-That the company will do all set forth in the foregoing articles and are willing to undertake same.
 Provided. First-That the city of Phoenix will enter into contract with the said company for a period of ten years and will guarantee to pay the company two and three quarter cents (2A) per 1000 gallons for all water delivered to the city; same to be meas ured by the best improved type of wa ter meter that can be procured for such purposes.
 Second-That the city will furnish all pipes and mains from such point as it may desire to a point on the grounds of the company, where same sball be connected to the new pumping system.

 FRANCHISE NeWCompanyWantsBusiness PrNi|egesinPhOenK BIDS FOR NEW CITY PUMPS
Proposition Submitted by the Pacific Gas & Electric Go. to Furnish the City With Water--A Sidewalk Law.

In great contrast with many meet | ings of the city council, last nights session was one of much importance
 in matters of material interest. the subjects being new pumps for en- larging the water plant, proposition submitted to pump water for the i city, a new telephone franchise, side walk building, street marking, gar | bage boxes, new additions, etc.
 As announced some time ago the council finding it necessary to pro- vide for an increased water supply, advertised for the installation of ad
 ditional pumps, steam or electric, un- der certain conditions and specified tions. Last night bids submitted by eight different firms were opened. Some bidders made two or three propositions, under differing specifi- cations or details. One bid is en route from the Hampson Fielding Co. of Denver, delayed in the mails, but will probably be received and opened, telegraphic advices having been re- ceived concerning it. The bids were all referred to a .committe consisting of Robert Craigs, superintendent of water works; Engineer Howard Reed and Councilman Campbell, with re- quest to confer with the representa- tives of the bidders who are here as soon as possible, and to report their findings to the council at a meeting to be held next Thursday night.
 In giving the list of bids made, it is only fair to the bidders to say that the figures presented mean but very little to the reader as there are so many kinds of pumps and such variance in details and specified tions that only careful examination by competent men will indicate which bids are the cheaper or most desir- able The names of bidders and their bids, however, are as follows: Pa cific Coast Mfg Co., of Los Angeles, |$19,950, s19,700; Laidlaw Dunn Cor don, represented by MT. Moore of Los Angeles. s10,95O, $9,50S, sS.79S, s15,- 796; Platt Iron Works, Dayton, O., s11,5O S13,SOO, S15,OOO; Nordberg Mfg. Co. of Milwaukee, $11,20O, with a discount of over s1,O00 without con denser; Canton Pump Co. of Canton, O., s14,OOO; Fred NJ. Prescott, Steam Pump Co of Milwaukee, s10,500 s10,- OOO s11,6OO; Allis Chalmers Co. of Milwaukee, s15,SOO, less s165O without condenser.
 The temporary disposal of the bids was followed by the reading of proposition made to the city by the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. to fur nish the added supply needed or to pump all the water needed by the city, the company now furnishing the power for the pumping. Should it be favorably considered the city would not require any of these pumps and the proposition was referred to the committee of the whole for con- sideration before the pump bids are finally acted upon. The proposition of the local company involves no i'm mediate construction expense, though it does suggest a new standpipe to be erected somewhere. of greater ca pacity than the present one. lt'

self, Dwight B. Heard and E. s. Wakelin. appeared before the council, asking for a franchise for operating new telephone service in the city. | He protested that it was not design ed as a money making scheme but only a project for securing an up-to- date service at cost price. An ordi
 nance that had been prepared on the subject was read and referred to the ordinance committee. It provides that the city may buy the plant at the expiration of five years, or any five year period during the life of the franchise, at a value to be determined by appraisement under specified rules; that the rates to be charged for house phones will not exceed S2.00 per month or business phones s2.50 per month, on main lines, and that the rental of party lines will not exceed $50; that the city officers designated by the council shall have free phones, that the poles and equip ment may be used by the city for fire alarm or patrol service, free; that the company. will keep open books, make an annual report and pay the city one per cent of its rev enues; that if the franchise be grant ed, construction work shall begin within 90 days after passage of the ordinance and the line will be comz/ pleted and in operation within Dtne months. tI
 As all franchises have to be)1assed upon by the people and it is desira- ble that it be done at the regular annual election Sfds it requires 70 days to prepare for and advertise the election, it is likely there will be early action on the franchise.
 The next subject discussed was that of d bill proposed to be presented to the legislature, to enable cities to force the building of sidewalks. A bill had been drawn up that is be- lieved meets the city's needs and was read and endorsed by the council. It provides that when five per cent of the property owners on a block want a sidewalk built they may peti- ton the council for a hearing, that shall be advertised. Then if 51 per cent or more acquiesce in the plan by expression or permit the matter to go by default. the city may order the walk constructed by the property owners within ninety days. If at the end of that time any owner shall fail to build the city may let con- tract to be a lien on the property, that may be foreclosed the same as any other lien, the contractor in advance knowing he must look to the property owner for payment but be- ing given the lien as security. This avoids the necessity of the city pay ing the contractor, though acting as

DEVELOPING 4 MINE
 Al THE SQUARE DEAL
Progress of Work Under the Direction of E. E. Withey.

F. E. Withey. manager of the Square Deal Development company, is in the city from the property forty miles north of Phoenix and a little east of Gibson's ranch on the Black Canyon road. The property is rather a close I'corporation, as it is owned entirely by small group of men, nearly all of whom reside in Michigan, as did MT. Withey formerly, all being friends and acquaintances of his. The purpose of the company at present is merely to continue development and it is inter esting to note that development to date is quite satisfactory and does much to prove the property.
 There is a shaft down sixty feet the surface being sort of a veinless for nation, but at the present depth a vein two feet wide is well defined and MT Withey says is copper glance ore running 40 per cent. There is about a hundred tons of ore on the dump. The hill at that point is very steep and 162 feet below the collar of the shaft, down the hillside, a tunnel has been run into the hill designed to con- meet with the shaft. This tunnel is III 1oU lttl Dul ildS lNO e1ll5lCS III It, not being driven straight, and is within twenty feet of a point directly below the shaft, where the two will be con- nected when the shaft is sunk seventy three feet deeper.
 This tunnel about eighty-three feet in crossed a malachite stringer which was followed twenty feet with a drift, developing two feet of 30 per cent ore. The tunnel was then continued across the vein but nothing has yet been en- countered that was thought at the time as worth developing. the chief object being to continue a connection with the shaft. This will be done soon and it is almost certain that the tun- mel will shortly penetrate the ore zone the shaft is following down.
 MT. Withey has recently received from Geo. w. Farwell a mining engi- neer of Nevada, a set of plans of the development made by MT. Farwell from Mir Whitney's notes that show the conditions quite accurately.
