GAMBLING CASE
 IS SEI FOR TODAY

After delay of several months awaiting the convenience of the dis trict attorneys office, the gambling cases will come up for trial in Jus tice Murphy's court today at Lowell. to which a change of venue was had on motion earlier in the case. As sistant District Attorney Flannigan ar rived in the city yesterday, and there seems no reason why the cases shall not be disposed of, starting this after noon.
 After the new anti-gambling law was passed there was lull for time, and then less care was exercised in running games. and the raid was made in Bisbee. resulting in five arrests, she first made under the act passed by the late legislature. Since then there have been arrests and convictions elsewhere in the territory. but the cases in the local court have remain ed undisposed of. owing to the press of work which was cared for by the district attorneyIs office during he term of court at Tombstone.
 The Hayes case will be first heard tomorrow, and the other four are ex- pected to follow in order

C..Q NURSE GOES NEAR WATER:
 FALLS IN

The cry of woman overheard was heard Tuesday afternoon on the Naco road near the c. & A. hospital, and brave men rushed to the seething stream anxious to witness, if not to participate in the rescue.
 From up Tombstone canyon a mass Of water was rushing down the ce- ment trough, gurgkng, splashing and occasionally foaming in it's mad pass age to the flats beyond Warren A small cloudburst previously had de- scended upon the already soaked hills and valleys, and the subway, true to it's duty. was hurrying the muddy wa ter through and past the camp. The roar of the stream made many an old sailor from the San Pedro valley long for the sound of eight-bells, anl the welcome smell of the salt horse, :" and land lubbers stopped to gaze at the turbulent waters, and nervous women pushed by with shudder.
 The threatening clouds overhead were passing over the mountain tops. undecided whether to journey onward or descend and help swell the rapidly flowing stream, when Miss Josephine P. Moran, one of the nurses Of the Copper Queen hospital, bent o1 visit ing the C. & A. hospital staff, started 10 cross a "a her frail and shakY plank which tridsed the stream.

OF
 FLOOD BRINGS RAIN

Yesterday was the first anniversary of the first great flood of last year, when tons of gravel and silt were washed down upon the postoffice and library building and much damage was dcne. At that time the worst of the c'oudburst was on the hill back of the library building. and up the can yon and from the hill came the rocks and silt, which piled up to the second story level. and when the water came through the windows some of the pos tai clerks had narrow escapes.
 From up Tombstone canyon wave of water swept down Main street iu- undating stores and damaging goods. Altogether it was estimated that s20,- 900 ta-nage was done.
 Strange to say, the rain of yesterday commenced within a few minutes of the same time as the flood of last year, and to those who remembered the date of last years flood it was suggestive.
 The heaviest rainfall of the season came yesterday afternoon about three o'clock. The clouds in advance of the storm did not indicate anything seri- ous or of flood proportions, but when the storm really broke the rain be- came very heavy. The worst of the rain fell to the south and west of the city and made fine test of the sub way, which it stood perfectly. Water rushed down Subway street foot or more deep, and much came down the hill back of the postoffice.
 After the rain was over it was found that much of the s!ag had wash ed from the tracks to in front of the postoffice and Copper Queen store, and that considerable debris and rocks had come down Brewery Cullen and Review street.

ROUTE UP MAIN STREET WILL
 PLEASE

There was a general expression of satisfaction to be/ found yesterday about Bisbee over the action of the dissatisfaction was expressed by the more radical supporters of the Subway street route. Nevertheless advocates of this route were found yesterday who seemed well satisfied and expres- sions from others was to the effect that they were for an immediate street railway up the canyon. and that what ever the majority of the citizens want cd would suit them. Altogether the usual public spirited "Bisbee habiti was in evidence.
 Superintendent Ralph Caldwell, of the Warren Bisbee railway line. states that work will be started at the earli- est possible moment. as the company is anxious to complete its line to the westerly city limits as soon as practi- cable. Nothing can be done until Engineer Adsit returns, but he is ex- pected back next week. and after that the construction force will be organiz- de and work commenced. From this 1t may be expected that the company will not take advantage of the thirty day hr1it to start construction work, but that rails will be going down with in a fortnight.
 No Opposition Shown.
 There was rumor about the street yesterday afternoon that the J. R.. Angius estate would bring proceed ings to enjoin the construction of the road up Main street, but the rumor was unfounded and entirely without truth.
 A reporter called upon Manager J. B. De Woody, manager of the Angius Grocery Company, as soon as he heard the rumor, and asked for yerification or denial.
 There is not word of truth in it, '' said Mir. .DeWoody. We shall dc nothing of the kind. We favored the other route, but what the majority oi the citizens of Bisbee want suits us would rather it had gone the other way, but now that it is decided we shall not oppose the construction oi the road in any way. We are for Bisbee, and what Bisbee wants suits us"
 The expression voiced by Mir. De. Woody was that of other opponents 10 the Main street route as well. Allen Will Stick. Early last evening Alderman l.. R | Allen called up the Review office and i said that he wanted to make a denia to an article published in the evening paper to the effect that he was con tempating resigning frcm the city | council because he failed to win fol | the Subway street route at the conn | cil meeting. This article said tha it was reported that M-. Allen hal
 stated that he would resign, and tha
 the report could neither be affirmed D denied.
 To the Review the Alderman sad
 Please deny for me that am intend ing to resign. The statement in th' , Miner is absolutely false. l have n' intention to resign, and when, if eyeG
 I do determine to I am quite capabl, of making my own announcements. He was, of course, disappointed owe
 his dosing fight, but when seen earl! | yesterday afternoon by a Review re porter he showed no signs of havin!
 lost sleep over it. and was as smilin,
 as ever.

SUGGEST HORSE RACING FOR
 HOLIDAY

A suggestion has been made which is of interest to horse lovers and loy- CTS of good racing. and which may -e- ceive attention and bring two days of good racing on the new Warren track the first part of next month.
 The suggestion is that series of races be arranged for Labor Day and for the day before, which would give two days of the sport. or in any event for the Labor Day holiday. Labor Day is the first Monday in September. and falls this year on the sixth, so that there is a full month to arrange for horse races, which would give ample time.
 When the suggestion was made to the Review reporter it was for two days racing, Sunday, September ,. and Monday. September 6. but it was added that if the management of the races did not care to go against she rules of the two national racing asso- citations. harness and runner. they could confine the events to one day.
 Now that the track has been laid out at Warren there seems no reason why this sport should not be made holiday feature, and it is certain that day or two of racing would be pleas ing to the residents here, and would attract some visitors, though no espe- cial celebration need be planned in connection with it. The only ex- pense would be such purses as might be provided and admission to the track would readily cover that
 The suggestion has been made to some of those keenest on the sport in Bisbee, and action may be taken by them on the matter within the next few days.

Forests

V4C6bS6
I urge that provision be made for
both protection and more rapid de-
velopment of the national forests.
Otherwise, either the increasing use
of these forests by the people must be
checked or their protection against
fire must be dangerously weakened.
II we compare the actual damage on
similar areas on private and national
forest lands during the past year, the
government fire patrol saved CONNER
cial timber worth as much as the
total cost of caring for all national
forests at the presnt rate for about
ten years.
Lands.
The use of the public grazing lands
should be regulated in such ways as
to improve and conserve their value.
Rights to the surface of the public
land should be separated from rights
to forects upon it and to minerals be-
meath it, ind these should be sub
jeet to separate disposal.
The coal, oil, gas and phosphate
rights. still remaining with the gov
eminent should be withdrawn from
entry and leased under conditions IA
vorable for economic development.
Minerals.
The consumption of nearly all Of
our mineral products is increasing
more rapidly than u population.
Our mineral waste is about one-sixth
of II product, or nearly $1,000. 900
for each working day in the year. The
loss of structural materials through
fire is about another million a dsy.
The loss of life in the mines is APP
,palling. The larger part of these
losses can be avoided.
A part of the action of the joint
conference says: We also especially
urge on the Congress of the United
States the high desirablity of main
tanning a national commission on the
conservation of tehresources of the
country empowered to cooperate
with State commissions to the end
that every sovereign Commonwealth
and every section of the country may
attain the high degree of prosperity
and the sureness of %perpetuity nat
urally arising in the aboundant re-
sources and the vigor, intelligence,
and patriotism of our people.
In this Recommendation / most
heartily concur, and I urge that an
appropriation Of at least $4,000 be
made to cover the expenses of the
national conservation commission for
necessary rent, assistance and traV-
cling expenses. This is a very small
sum-. I know of no other way in
which the appropriation of so small
a sum would result in so large a bene-
fit to the whole nation.
