TUCSON BROKER IN
 LINE FOk TROUBLE
PHOENIX DOCTOR GETS HOT ON HIS SEEKS AN AC-
 COUNTING, I.| VAIN

TUCSON, August l2.-Dr. Lentz came to the city from Phoenix Sunday for the purpose, as he says, of forcing settlement" in his affairs with the brokerage concern of Frank J. o 'Brien, which closed its doors about three weeks ago after an uphill struggle for many months to keep the business going. Dr. Lentz first demanded settlement from MT. o 'Brien on the spot Upon being informed that the claims of the credit DTS were being adjusted and that an effort would be made to meet these claims dollar for dollar and that set clement would be forth coming within very few days, it is said the Phoenix physician grew boisterous and after storming considerably in the presence O fthe ex broker called at the district attorneys office in an effort to secure a warrant for Mr. o 'Brien 's arrest.
 In the office of the district attorney, he met l.. $. Arnold, assistant to Ben ton Dick. After listening to the man, Mir. Arnold consulted with Mir. Dick. who advised him that if the facts in connection with Mir. O!Brien $ failure warrants criminal action, an investiga tion will be made by the grand jury.
 The doctor, it is said. was sorely dis appointed because the warrant was not issued on the spot and, spent the re mander of his time in the city in con demning Tucson in general and its of ficials in particular. Dr. Lentz, 1t IS said, threatened to make trouble for the broker if settlement was not forthcoming immediately and intimat- ed that if he was paid, none of the other creditors in Phoenix would make trouble for the Tucson man. He de parted without having accomplished anything.
 It was announced yesterday that the accounts of the brokerage concern are being strengthened up rapidly and that an announcement as to the firm 's as sets and liabilities will be made very soon, this to be followed by settle ment with the creditors.

NEW YORK, August l2.-Specula- tion in stocks took on sudden excess of activity today.

MAJESTIC THEATER

The large audiences at the Majestic last night showed that the theater going public appreciates the excellent music of Martinez and Martinez, who have been on the program during the entire week. Last night they had an entire change of musical selections and differ ent combinations of instruments.
 Their costumes, too, were different, very beautiful and picturesque. They were again in Spanish style. They played mandolin and guitar duet and saxaphone duet, then Senor Martinez played "Old Black Joe" as trombone solo. This was followed by selection on trombone and snare drum, and a banjo duet. Every number won round after round of applause and several times they were called back for an encore.
 The new illustrated song, Base ball, :" sung by Mir Buchanan, was also great success. The illustrations were unusually fine and Mir. Buchanan was compelled to repeat the entire song, and the chorus several times.
 By special request, the motion picture of Yellowstone Park was shown again. The other picture, the story of re- leased convict and his struggle to be gin life anew, was very good.
 Tonight the coupons will be collected and the drawing for the ten-dollar gold piece will take place. This prize IS offered by the management to the one who shall hold the lucky number. Tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock there will be matinee for ladies and children.

CHICAGO, August 12--As the off cial crop report of Canada, including Ontario and Quebec, showed a prospec- tive yield far in excess of expectations the sentiment in the wheat market was decidedly bearish at the opening.

 Beneficial rains in the corn belt had weakening effect on corn, the senti- ment being bearish nearly the entire day. The close was weak at a net de- cline of F to X.
