MORMON COLONY IN
 PIMA COUNTY
Proposed Settlement Prom ises Great Things for
 Old Pueblo

Options have been secured on the w. H. Manning ranch near Tucson and on the Allison brothers ranch, in the Santa Cruz valley, with the object. of clolonizing them with Mormons, who will engage in agricultural pursuits. The transfer of the properties has not been made but it is regarded as practically certain that the options secured will shortly be followed by the actual trans fer of the properties named, and that the Tucson country in which they are located, will be the beneficiary of one of the largest colonization schemes yet un- dertaken. Promoters who are said to be at the head of the project, could not be induced to give out anything for publication relative to the matter; but on excellent authority it is learn ed that the plan has been under way for some time past and has nearly reached fruition.
 The proposition is one of the most gigantic colonization schemes ever un- dertaken in the territory. The Manning and the Allison ranches consist of 320O acres of rich agricultural land lying along the fertile Santa Cruz valley. Extensive improvements have been made on the two ranches and water in abundance is to be had. The Santa Cruz river supplies all that is needed for purposes of irrigation.

MRS. DUNCAN HOPES HUSBAND MAY
 RETURN
Hears Through Friend That Missing Miami Man Is
 in Los Angeles

Loath to believe that her husband has deserted her for another, Mrs. II. G. Duncan of Miami has not yet given up hope that he will return to her, in spite of the fact that for nearly two weeks she has not heard from him. Meanwhile Duncan partner, William FolIis, is also anxious to learn what has become of him and the funds of the partnership as well.
 "The last time I saw my husband was on Friday, May 13, when he left for Ray by the Kelvin stage,' said Mrs. Duncan yesterday. "He told me before he left that he expected to meet a mining man from Los Angeles and to close deal for some mining claims.
 CT heard from him later when l received post card from him in Phoe nix, mailed the day after he left. Since that time I have heard nothing from him directly.
 "Last Saturday I received letter from friend in Los Angeles, telling me that he had seen Harry on the street. I suppose I ought to have done something then, but I was so sure that he had left Ray and gone to His claims in the Payson district that l though my friend must have been mistaken.
 ''I can hardly believe that he has deserted me and taken as much money as they say he did, leaving me with a miserable $20 to live on. We had been married two years and had been happy. I still believe in him and think he will return to me.'
 Except for the information received bv Mrs. Duncan nothing has been heard from the missing saloon keeper and as yet no charges have been filed against him by his partner, although Follis has stated openly that he believes Duncan departed with something over $l,6oo In partnership money in his possession.

After passing on large number of motions for rehearing at Phoenix last week, most of which were denied, the supreme court Saturday adjourned Tn- til November 9, which, by one of those freaks of the almanac that now and then happens, falls on the same date as the opening of the territorial fair. Judicial cognizance was not had of the purposes of the fair commission and as there is no way to get the court to- gether before the time to which it has been adjourned, it does not now seem possible that an unfortunate conflict of dates can be avoided

ENGINEER |S BURNED
 IN EXPLOSION

Chief Engineer Frank Mesa of the Dealers Ice & Cold Storage company was painfully injured yesterday morn ing in an explosion. Mesa had just come on duty and the fires in the boilers became extinguished. The gas generated caught nre, from the heat, causing an explosion which blew open the doors and caught the engineer in the fact and about the arms and shoul- ders with a solid sheet of flame.
 The injured man was attended by Dr. R. D. Kennedy. Although the burns are very painful they are not considered dangerous. Mesa has been in the em- ploy of the company for more than six years and was formerly employed in the same capacity. by the Globe Ice X Cold Storage company.
 The injured man is 37 years of age. He will be able to resume work in the near future.

COPPER HILL ROAD WILL BE IN USE
 SATURDAY Fully Completed and Wait ing for Legalization of Tariffs

The new branch of the Arizona East ern railroad, running from the south yards in this city to Copper Hill, will be formally turned over to the railroad company, ready for occupation, today, according to the program announced yesterday.
 While the new Arizona Commercial road, as it will be generally known, is already completed, it will probably not be formally opened until Saturday. The tariffs over the new road will go into effect at that time and until then, the road cannot be operated.
 The Copper Hill road has been under construction for the past several months and its building has not been without incident. The contract for the construction of the road bed was orig inally let to the Crandall Contracting company. A few months ago, after the greater part of the work had been com pleted, the contractors became fnan- cially involved and the work was taken over by the Arizona Eastern and car tO plClclOh.
 For the present, no regular service will be installed over the new line, for the reason that during the temporary shut down of the shelter of the Ari- zona Commercial Copper company, no great amount if business will be done over the new line.
 As soon as the Arizona Commercial smelter reopens, however, 1t is highly probable that gasoline motor ear ser vice will be installed over the new line, making a loop over this road and the old tracks leading to Copper Hill by way of the Old Dominion and complet- ing the trip by way of Miami.
 According to Superintendent c. c. Mallard of the Arizona Eastern, new gasoline car for use over the Miami and Copper Hill roads has been ordered from the McKeen Motor Car company of Omaha. The factory is now over crowded with orders, however, and 1t may be a matter of several months before the new car is delivered here.
 It is the general opinion that when the new car is received, the regular mixed train now running to Miami will be operated over both this line and the Copper Hill road and the present passenger service to Miami replaced by the motor car, which will run to Copper Hill as well as to Miami

MARKET STAGNATES WHEN MAGNATES

Caution Marks Feeling and Downward Rate on Money
 Is Arrested

NEW YORK, May 24.-The stock market dropped back into stagnant state today in contrast with the com parative animation of the day before.
 The sailing today for Europe of in- dividuals who have been prominent at times in the speculation was hit on as an indication that they had been clean ing up accounts yesterday preparatory to this departure. The selling pressure was no longer in evidence today and the supply of stocks for sale was much diminished. Uncovered shorts had the advance bids to get stocks.
 The money market showed an arrest of the recent downward tendency ot interest rates, but without any marked change in conditions.
 The cautious feeling on the outlook finds expression in the discussion ot United States treasury finances and ip the possibility that they may require a call on the national banks for return of some part of the government depos- it's.

Scarcely more than 16 years old, a beardless youth with yearning for the city and city ways, James Hans ford is prisoner at the Phoenix police station, charged with having forged his father's name to four checks and with having passed them in as many differ ent stores in that city. Just what will be the outcome of the lad s escapade is largely matter of conjecture. His father, whose name was signed to all four of the checks, has made good the losses entailed by the merchants who cashed the forged instruments, but the police are holding the boy pending final disposition of the case.

This years clip in the northern part of the territory has not been as large as that of last year on account of the scarcity of feed on the desert ranges in the early months of the year, due to drought and frosts, which compelled the wool growers to drive Or transport their flocks by rail to the mountain pastures along the Santa Fe railroad before the opening of the shearing season.
