FORD QUITS IN
milf OVER HIS
REMUNERATION
Third Baseman Leaves Min
erS and Another Switch in
Line-Up of Locals Is Now
Rendered Necessary,

But little Of interest looms on the
local baseball horizon at present The
most startling feature of yesterday
was the news of the failure Of the
directors Of the Warren District Base
bah association, and Denny Ford, re
Gently broght here from Douglas
as third baseman, TO agree upon the
amount of his salary. Ford therefore
declined TO play further with the To-
Gals and will leave here shortly. His
exact plans are not known but it is
stated he will probably go to Texas
Ford's detection viii cause a switch
n the lineup. Gray, who has been
playing left field viii be brought 70
the infield, and take Ford's place on
third Baldwin will play left field and
act as alternate pitcher. "Ducky' Go
wan, who arrived in Bisbee yesterday
will play right field in place Of Deak-
in.
Deakin left yesterday morning for
Fl Paso to jon the Mavericks as a
result of the trade that brought Go
wan here.
The Miners were out for practice
yesterday morning. and the vim with
which they went at their game looked
well to observers. Bisbee's team will
undoubtedly be much stronger Sat
urday when it begins the Douglas Sc
ries than at any time during the sea
son.

FLOOD INSURANCE
NOT TO Be OBTAINED
sis8EE PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO
CARRY 1T BUT COMPANIES RE-
FUSE.

The question asked most frequent
ly during the last few days has been
why do Bisbee people not carry
flood insurance and save themselves
SO much expense each year?'' The
answer is simple in the extreme, not
a single insurance company will carry
the risk
Inquiry of Graf Brothers and the
Arizona Insurance Agency two of the
city's leaders in the insurance field
ELECTED the information that frequent
applications were had for insurance of
property against loss by flood. In
every case refusal is given, as no
company is willing to take the risk.
Several times in the past the prop
osition of organizing a local com
pany insuring against floods only has
been discussed. but each time the idea
has fallen flat In the first place
il has been argued that none hui
the man owning property in the can
yon would apply for this class of in
surance. Again. without the aid OF
the money paid by the man residins
on the h1llsides for premiums the rate
TO the canyon dweller must necessarily
be extremely high, so high in fact Il
possible losses are to be met, thar
the scheme is impraeticable.
Only one insurance company in tn,
world it is stated locally. would TAX,
such risk and that is Lloyd's, of Lon
don. That firm will bet" agains
anyone on anything if the premiums
paid be high enough.

ing model Of his invention on exhi-
bition In the office of l. W. WailsCe,

SOU WESTERN
To 60 ON To
PHOENIX SOON
Likely to Build Also to Tucson
and Go to DuraSgo Coal
Fields, But Maybe Moi,
Says Rumor.

Evidence of the fact that the Fl
Paso and Southwestern may begin
shortly building its extensions
through from Benson into the rich
agricultural section OF the territory
Is given in an interview credited n
General Manager Simmons of tho
me and appeared in the Fl Paso
Times.
As considerable speculation has
been rife in Bisbee for some time
upon this subject, the story is nub-
hshed in full to be taken for what
it is worth. ma
It is foregone conclusion that
the Ell Paso and Southwestern will
extend its line through the aericnI.
turaI valleys of Arizona 10 Pboaniv
indeed. 1t is quite likely that ono
line will also be extended To Tucson
though the high officials of the
road deny that they have any in.
tention Of building more than ono
nne from Benson. They saw that
II they build to Phoenix they viii
not build to Tucson, and wee versa
1t is generally believed the E p.
& 5 w. will undoubtedly adopt the
Phoenix route and build through to
the Durango coal fields.
Yes said General Manager Sim
mons yesterday, I'VE still have
our surveyors in the field at work
on contemplated extension work
They are surveying two routes from
a point on our main line about eight
or nine miles southeast of Benson
One route runs south of Benson to
Tucson, while the other route being
surveyed passes north and east of
Benson to Phoenix II has not vet
been determined which line will be
built or whether either of them will
be built No, we have no plans for
going to the Pacific coast. But the
company does contemplate building
a line into the mining districts of
Arizona and through it's rich agri-
cultural Valleys
Mr.. Simmons believes that in
September there will be a general
revival of business all over the
country and that Ell Paso will ex
perience a brisk fall and winter
trade.
While Mr.. Simmons does not adj
NIT as much, it is believed in rail-
road circles that his road will in
September, begin construction work
on its line from Benson to Phoenix
and TO the Durango coal fields.
