But since the election they have been assured by citizens of Mesa that an effort to secure a bridge now for Tempe will receive the support of all citizens of the south side. The repre- santatives of Tempe were gratified on their arrival in town yesterday to find a strong disposition to help them They were encouraged to believe that there would be little opposition here to voting another levy and they found the merchants almost to a man in favor of it. The petition therefore will be widely circulated and if it should turn out that no aid can be secured from the territory, the election will be asked for
 There was an impression founded only on supposition that another election on a bridge proposition in volving any of the sites voted on on Tuesday could not be held for a year. But there is no such limita- tion in either of the bridge laws. An election could be held as soon as the machinery of the law has been put in operation.
 The spirit which has overcome whatever disappointment the people of Tempe may have felt is shown in the following communication received at this office yesterday:
 "To the Editor of The Republican,
 Phoenix. Arizona
 Dear Sir-In the name of the people of Tempe and the Citizen committee that I represented in the Tempe bridge controversy, I want to thank your paper for the favors that they extended to us by given us space to place our views before the and I also congratulate the Center Street Bridge people upon their success.
 Very respectfully.

ARGUMENTS BEGIN MONDAY
Prosecutor Heney Rejects With Some Warmth a Pro- posal to Dispense With Or atory--Case Will Probably Reach Jury by Friday.

San Francisco, June 1.-The trial of Calhoun which opened January F, will reach the stage of final argu- nent next Monday. All preliminaries were swept away at today's session of rhe court, wherein counsel for the de- fendant, after offering to submit the case without argument, agreed to the courts decision providing for anoth- CT arrangement, whereby the attOr- neys will inaugurate an unrestricted period of oratorical effort, scheduled 70 begin on Monday morning.
 Heney, who appealed to the court for permission to show that Abraham Ruef was conceded to be the boss" of San Francisco during the admin istration of Mayor Schmitz, was de- nied the privilege after a stirring de- bate extending over several hours. When the courts decision was final ly pronounced, Heney stated that the people had no further testimony to offer and there was a prompt sub mission of the case by Stanley Moore, attorney for the defense.
 Before the jury was dismissed, Heney rejected a proposal to submit the case without argument, declaring that the proposal, made by one of the attorneys of the defendant, was in tended as an effort to influence the jury.
 According to arrangements made before the adjournment today, O'Gara will make the opening argument and will be followed by Alexander King for the defense. A A. Moore, senior counsel of the defendant, will pre- sent the closing argument in behalf of Calhoun, and Heney will make the final argument for the people. It is believed the case will be submitted by Friday of next week

ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE
IN CITY Of MEXICO
Walls of Buildings Cracked
By Shock Lasts Nearly
Two Minutes National
Palace Damaged.

City Of Mexico, July 81. The
City of Mexico was again severe
ly shaken by an earthquake to-
day. A shock severer than anv
yet experienced rocked the city
for one minute and forty seconds.
The first faint swaying came at
12:43, but the nervous populace
needed nothing than the slight
est tremor to send them pouring
out of the stores, office buildings
and dwellings to the streets.
The shock grew in intensity at
the end of t e first thirty seconds
and suddenly shifted the direction
of its motion. It began with a
long, swaying north to south os-
cillatory motion. which changed
to humping trepidatory action.
No great damage was done,
though many walls, weakened
by the three shocks of yesterday
morning, fell, while innumerable
public buildings were cracked.
The National Palace suffered
considerably. The War Office,
Chamber of Ambassadors and
other sections of the other hand
some buildings were cracked.
The Mutual Life Building, the
Stillwell Building and the cathe-
dral were among the other large
edifces whose walls suffered
openings. In the case of the
first two the damage was OF a
minor character.
Official reports received here
this morning from Gov. Bamian
Flores of the State of Guerrero
declares that in Acapulco the
largest and strongest buildings
were raised by the force of the
tremors yesterday, and that
there has been great property
loss in Chilpancingo.
