OFFICER UNDERSTANDS
 SPANISH LANGUAGE
AS A COINCIDENCE CHARGE OF THEFT AGAINST TWO MAY STICK.

PHOENIX. Feb. 10.-In Joe Pena and Andronico Carico, two Mexicans who recently arrived here from Tue son, the city police believe they have captured the principals Of a burglary in the old Jueblo Carico and Pena tried to dispose Of some clothes at the old Wilson secondhand store. on South Second street. and landed in the city jail.
 Shortly after he reached his office this morning Marshal Moore received a call from Wilson's The proprietor informed him that some small. dark Mexican had been trying to sell him some trousers, and that the garments were undoubtedly stolen. The two ol them went to search for this Mexican part of the country excellent transpor. tation facilities, with a railroad built on a grade that will not be prohibitive
 It will also complete a loop between South Globe. Copper Hill. North Globe and the present road running through the city which will enable the rail road company to put in service a fast gasoline motor car by which excellent passenger service can ge given to the people of the outlying districts.

and while they were locking around saw Carico and Pena dodge into the Home bakery. The secondhand man then remembered that they had been 10 his store earlier in the day, trying to sell some clothes, The marshal ac- cordingly placed them under arrest.
 On the way to the city hall caricO told Pena to stand pat and declare that he had bought the clothes. They communicated in Spanish and the mar shal did not let them know that he understood the language.
 Stand pat" ordered Carico. Don't give anything away"
 At the time of the arrest Carico had a suit of new clothes under his arm.
 The two prisoners '.'stand pat" on their story that Pena bought the clothes. The story does not sound reasonable, however. and the marshal feels pretty sure that they stole the clothes in Tucson. He did not see them before today aud there Is no reason to doubt their assertion that they have just come from Tucssa. Nc local clothing merchant has com plained of being robbed, so the clothes Pena and Carieo had must have been , secured outside of Phoenix.
 The Mexican who was trying to sel the trousers has left town. He was rooming at the Star Lodging hous' and after trying to sell his surplu: pantaloons at the second hand stor, he took all his effects and left. Hi name is not known.

 You know" he said, q think the outlook for statehood is pretty favor able. In fact. consider it such a certainty that 1t is really not worth while discussing it. Mining is what I am mostly interested in just now And speaking of mining, regard the Globe country as one Of the most promising districts in this country"
 Mir. Smith is president of the Live Oak Mining company at Globe. He is also a director of the Warrior and the Cordova properties In the Miami district A large concentrator is be- ing installed by the Miami Copper company. which is employing a large force of men, The Inspiration. the Warrior and the Keystone are also employing many men and are open ing up large bodies Of ore. The town of Miami is building up rapidly. he says
 The big Improvements now being made in the Globe district by the companies in which he is interested will eventually necessitate the install lation. he declares. of coneentrators and smelters in that city.
 Speaking of the Silver City dis. trict. Mir Smith stated that the construction of a railway from White Water to the Burro mountains where the properties of the Savannah Cop per company are located, is stimulat ing activity there.

 It Is the intention of the track gang to continue laying rails until what is known as the summit is reached. The track will then be ballasted back to the connection with the valley line By the time the work is completed. the roadbed will be in shape for the laying of the balance of the track to Copper Hill.
 Although no definite date has been set for the completion of the new line. it Is probable that it will be finished ready for use by the first of April
 The new line will be of great benefit to the Copper Hill district. as it Will give the mining companies in that

 PROFIT FROM
 BUCKEYE LAND
Farmer With 16O Acres Reports Gain in One Year That Appears Out of tie Ordinary.

PHOENIX. Ariz.. Feb. i0.-Charies
 yer over the wonderful resources and wealth of the great Buckeye farming district. of which he Is one of the lead ing spirits. Nick Sanders, the well known rancher and former Phoenix politician. has arrived in Phoenix and will be here for a day or two attend ing to business matters.
 Buckeye. in a farming way. is easily keeping step with the rapid progress that Phoenix is making city. ward" said Sanders today. We have what I feel sa'e in saying is one of the greatest farming sections in the world. and 1t is being developed in a surprising manner. There are now some 16.000 acres of splendid farming land under the Buckeye canal. and the greater part Of il Is cultivated
 In speaking of the Buckeye canal. Sanders stated that the residents Of his district had already attained what the farmers in the country directly tributary to Phoenix had been striy- ing for years. control of their own water system. The farmers of the Buckeye country purchased the Buck eye canal a year ago. the purchase price being Ss2.OOo.
 The regular payments that were stipulated in the agreement drawn up when the purchase was made have been kept up regularly and already $40. 900 has been paid on the canal. The farmers control the management of the canal themselves. which is a very satisfactory arrangement. for. as Sanders says. if the manager they lire is not satisfactory to the farmers, they can remove him and put some one else in charge and without con sulting the pleasure of any canal com pany.
 Speaking Of the unlimited oppor- tunities of the Buckeye country for making money. Sanders cited one ranch in particular, a 160-acse tract owned by Johnson & Conger. which last year netted 8 clear profit after all expenses had been paid, of s55 an acre. An absolute profit of SSs0e from a 16O-acre farm seems almost unbelievable, but it is a fact. never theless-
 There are now over 1000 people ir the Buckeye country, and it is grow ing every day. The old ranches oi 160 acres or over are rapidly being cut up into forty-acre farming tracts which are being purchased by home seekers and settlers as fast as the land Is subdivided.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex. Feb. l0.- (Special) A decision which win prove of great importance in land litigation in Texas. where many titles depend on grants made by the Span- ish crown. was handed down by As sociate Justice II.

IMPORTANT ROAD
 WEARS COMPLETION
END OF MONTH WILL SEE
 FINISH OF WORK BETWEEN MINES.

GLOBE. Feb 10.--By the end of the present month, the roadbed of the new Arizona Commercial Copper com pany vii be graded to Copper Hill. unless some unforeseen difficulty de- lays construction work on that line
 Since weather conditions improved. month ago, Contractors Emanuel & Boucher have been rushing the grad ing of the new line with all possible dispatch. As the result. only about 25.000 yards Of earth are to be moved before the roadbed is completed to what is known as Station 70" at Copper Hill
 At the point where the grading gangs are now at work. the construc- ton work is heavier than at any oth- CT point on the line and as the result, progress is necessarily slow. The ground Is hard and 1t is necessary to looeen tha earth by blasting before il can be plowed and then handled by scrapers.
 Quite a lengthy stretch of right oi way has been shot and plowed and is ready for the scrapers. This work is being done at the site of what will be a cut oI about twenty-five feet and un less solid rock is encountered in the bottom oi the cut, it will require less than three weeks to complete the cut and practically finish the roadbed. From station 70" to the present road to Copper Hill. which runs by way of the Old Dominion, II will be necessary to build about 1000 feet oi roadbed This work will not be taken up until after the work now in prog ress is completed. The final piece oi roadwork is apparently not heavy however. and will not require a great deal of time to complete.
 While the grading gangs are al work the railroad officials have not
