Jobs Dependent on Arrests.
"a controversy has arisen over the
question as to whether the positions Of the
Humane Society's agents are dependent
upon the number of arrests made by
them. The horse owners contend that
the positions Of these agents are de-
pendent upon the amount of business
transacted by this society at the Police
Court, while some OF the ofhciais or the
society say otherwise. At a hearing held
by the Chamber Of Commerce some time
ago 1t was shown that certain agents OF
the society had admitted that a falling
off In the number of prosecutions would
jeopardize their positions. This state
ment was at once challenged by promi-
nent official of the Humane Society, but
that same prominent ofiicial. in the
course of a discussion which his chal-
lenge gave rise to. made the following
Statement, much to the surprise and

AT the time this remarkable admis-

the rooms of the Chamber OF Commerce

the hearing for the purpose of consider

SOCIALIST LEADERS
TALK REVOLUTION
Fench Strike Nevertheless Seems to Be
Fading Away.

Paris. oct. 14.-As the result of the
strong measures put in force by the
government. the railway strike situa-
ton continues to improve. With the
exception of the Western road where
the tie-up is still in force today, traf-
fic conditions are greatly improved.
The governments fears that rioting
would follow a meeting of the strikers
tonight led to the placing OF 10000
troops in the narrow streets adjoining
the hall where it was held. After the
meeting 5000 strikers marched from
the hall singing and shouting long

the crowd and dispersed it, Among the

GALA DAY PLANNED
At EASTLAKE PARK
Besides Baseball Game Tomorrow
There Will Be Band and Pretty
Girls.

! Unless there should be more rain
than that which fell last evening, the
diamond at Eastlake park will be in
the best shape of any time this year,
| Electric company nine are scheduled to
| cross bats. Both ,eaTns are practicing
daily for the contest and Phoenix fans
tomorrow will have the opportunity of
witnessing the best game played in
many weeks in this city.
Arrangements have been made for
the Industrial Liberty band o give Il
short concert in the business part of
the city tomorrow afternoon just pre-
ceding the game. and then to discourse
music during the progress OF the
game. In addition the full companies
of the Grand, Majestic and Coliseum
will attend in body and will no doubt
serve to further enliven the occasion
as one company did last Sunday by
rendering various melodies and root
ing for their favorites upon each team.
Realizing that the ladies arc about
as much interested in baseball as the
men, Manager Bill Alvord has invited
L
at this particular game No charge
will be made for ladies tomorrow either
for admission or for grandstand seats.
General admission tomorrow will be %
cents and 10 cents extra for the grand
stand.
Once it is shown that sufficient in
terest is being taken in the work of
the Jewels, Manager Alvord expects to
bring to Phoenix some of the best !
teams 10 be found in the southwest |
He is now negotiating with Secretary |
w w. Lawhon of the Douglas Base |
ball association, to bring the Douglas |
team here after the close of the Ell |
Paso fair. The Douglas team is one Of |
the strongest in the territory and a |
large guarantee will have to be made |
before the management win consent TO |
come as far as Phoenix for a game or |
two.
In the event that Douglas can be
brought here, the local fans can rest |
assured that no better game has ever |
been played on a local diamond, but
Manager Alvord will have to have
some kind of assurance that the local
association can break even before he
will close with the management of the
Douglas aggregation.
In the meantime Manager Alvord is
going to give Phoenix fans exhibitions
of the best ball possible with local ma
terial In addition he expects to bring
the Casa Grande nine here and posi-
bly, the nine from Ray. If he sees that
these teams draw enough to meet ex-
penses he will attempt to bring strong
er mines here. And the playing of the
Jewels last Sunday was certainly an
example of what the Jewels can do
when the occasion offers. A large
crowd should be at Eastlake park to-
morrow to hear the music Of the band
and the singing of the combined Choir
uses of the local playhouses if for no
other purpose.

SOME VICTORIES OF SCIENCE.
World Today Owes Pasteur Millions
of Men Saved From RaVages
of Plague.

Louis Pasteur. a French chemist.
is the man of all others to whom
the civilized world today owes it's
health and its absolute certainty that
the great epidemics of the past
cholera. the plague. ship fever
(smallpox was conquered by an
earlier genius) -cannot recur. 1t is
he who discovered the Indispensable
origin OF disease. or the germ theory
as it is popularity called, upon which
almost the entire science of proven
tive medicine is founded. and which
has shown the way to many of the
greatest triumphs Of the art Of cure.
II is as certain as anything can be
i'm the domain Of what has not ac-
tually happened that, were il not for
the development and practical appli-
cation of the truth established by
Pasteur the world today would be
mourning the loss of millions of men
in every country in Europe and
America from the ravages of the
plague; the loss in money alone
would have been incaIculable, while
the paralysis of thought and of en-
terprise involved would have halted
human progress for long years to
come. Cholera would long since have
burst the confines of Russia and
spread over Europe, and travelling on
ships from Europe in the east and
from the Philippines and continental
Asia in the west ii would have en-
tered our land on both coasts with
such results as the statistics of the
past may suggest to us) and taken
its toll of those who had withstOod
or survived the plague.-Good House

FIRE FIGHTERS TO MEET
FAIR COMMISSION TODAY
Will Ask That Money Be Set Aside as
Prizes for Proposed Tournament.

The committee of ten recently ap
ment to take up the matter of a fire
mems tournament in Phoenix during
fair week, will this morning meet the
territorial fair commission for the pur
pose of cndeavoring 20 induce that
body to offer suitable prizes for con-
tests TO be held at the fair grounds
during the week of the fair. So far
no provision has been made by the
fair commission for these races, but il
is believed that the firemen's commit
tee will be able to point out the mani
fold advantages arising from such 4
tournament and that the commission
may see fit to endorse the movement
and set aside the necessary funds for
the prizes.
Secretary James ShOtt of the PhOe
nix fire department is in receipt of let
tiers from several departments desir-
ing to send teams to Phoenix upon tho
occasion of the tournament. and it will
be pointed out that the bringing Of
these teams to Phoenix will have a
tendency to bring a great number of
people into Phoenix during fair week
than would come if the teams were not
represented.
1t has been noticed in the past year
or two that the departments of neigh
boring Arizona cities have invariably
signified their willingness and desire to
help in case of a serious fire in this
city and there is no way in which the
present feeling of fellowship can be
better maintained than by tournaments
and other social functions which serve
to bring the fire fighters of the terri
tory into closer relations.
There is cup to be contested for,
the winning of this cup requiring two
successive victories. Bisbee and Yuma
are now tied for the cup and in the
event of either of these cities sending
out a winning team this year the cup
will got to that team for all time on
the other hand if some other team
wins this year, it will require that an
other tournament be held next year.
The contest, while friendly, is more
spirited than any ever before held in
the territory. The local firemen hope
to see the fair commission favor their
appeal TO be made today.

VICIOUS CLASS CEGISIATION,'

The farmers of Minnesota heard
some plain talk from the president
yesterday. He had been telling them
what had been done for them and for
the laboring men through the agri-
cultural department on the one hand
and the labor bureau, the mining
bureau and the interstate commerce
commission on the other-all Of which
was quite proper, since it was for
the general good and wronged no
one. Then he turned sharply to
the other side of the shield and said:
But there is kind Of legislation
TO which | would refer that does not
come under the head of vicious class
legislation. and | hope / can make
the distinction clear between this and
what | have been describing. A
number of statutes have been passed
In the states against combinations
or conspiracies to restrain trade. to
suppress competition, or to maintain
prices; and there has been sometimes
an attempt to insert in such statutes
a proviso or a section exempting
farmers or other classes from the on
Grafton of the statute, so as to enable
and raise prices, while no other class
in the community can do So The
supreme court of the United States
has held that such a law gives an
undue privilege to a particular class
in the community. creates an unjust
exemption from the operation of a
useful law, denies the equal protec-
ton of the laws, violates the consti-
tuition and is invalid"
Next he took up a case relating
to laboring men. He related how it
had been sought to forbid the execu-
tive to use any Of the money given
for prosecutions under the antitrust
law in prosecuting workingmen en-
gagged in n boycott in violation of the
statute, and declared:
1T was the proper view of the ma
jority, who voted against the amend
ment, that on principle such a class
exemption or privilege should not be
declared and approved in statute
Of the government. 1 have not the
slightest expectation that the money
will ever be used for anything but
the prosecution of corporations and
business firms engaged in combina-
tons and business firms engaged in
combinations in restraint of trade:
but to tie the hands of the executive
against an unlawful combination of
workingmen or of any othr men, il
such a combination existed, and thus
make any group a privileged class
of lawbreakers, is neither justice, nor

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Feb. 3.--Weakness in the stock market checked an early advance in cotton and the market eased off during the afternoon under scattering liquidation and renewal of local bear ressure. The close was about quiet and steady, net unchanged to points lower
 The market opened steady at a de- cline of points to an advance of 1 point, which was about in line wrrn Liverpool futures.
 The first tendency of the market was upward upon excellent reports from Manchester and the expectation of bullish week end statistics with May calls selling up to 1465 and July to 14.53 or about to points net higher. But as soon as local profes- sionals saw that weakness in the stock market was bringing out some Wan street cotton, oerings became heavier and while there was good demand on a scale down, the market developed an easier tone in the ab- sence of aggressive bull support.
 May contracts sold to HAS in the last hour, or about F points below the high level of the morning and g points under last nights close. Gov ering caused a partial recovery in the last few minutes, with May closing 14.53 bid, or only points net lower.
 Aside from the unsettled conditions in the stock market there seemed to be no fresh bearish features in the news, while advances from trade cen ters and the southern spot markets were generally encouraging. Such reports as have been received from the southwest with reference to the recent rains indicate that they have not helped the season in the ground to any extent.
 Southern spot markets reported ear ly unchanged to 1sc higher. The Wall street selling was estimated at about 30,000 bales and prominent commission house with southern con- nections was credited with buying fully as much as that for May and July on the decline.
 Receipts at the ports today, 13,3S4 bales, against 14,s2S last week and S6.003 last year.
 For the week s0,000 bales against 113,0O2 last week and 25S,527 last year.

MARKET NEWS
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, Feb, 3.-Aggregate deal ings for the day of 1,672,000 shares and inroads on prices of IS points for practically all the active stocks offer evidence of a liquidation in the stock market sufficiently drastic and embracing to call for some other ex- plantations than temporary vagaries of speculative sentiment of merely technical conditions in the still mar ket itself.
 The speculative sentiment itself was plunged in gloom and was inclin- ed to given rein to sensational fore bodings of the consequences to ensue from the conditions which it saw re- fiected in the action of the days mar ket. The word panic" found fre- quent repetition in various pictures of the future, and the effect was de- cided disturbance of the nervous ele- ment.
 There was the fear that with the arrest to the upward course of prices of commodities there would necessar- fly follow a process of defation that would arrest the course of prosperous activities all through the channels of commerce.
