NEW TRAFFIC RULES
WILL Be TAKEN UP
Commissioners to Consider
Regulations Favored by
Trade Men.

The District Commissioners tomorrow
will have brought to their attention for
mally, the traffic regulations, adopted
by the Eoard Of Trade committee on
public transportation yesterday.
Members of the committee said today
there was no doubt of the adoption of
the regulations by the Board of Trade.
The only problem, they said, which con-
fronts them. is the question of whether
! the Commissioners will have power to
enforce the sections of the rules as an
addition to the police regulations
While 1t Is the opinion of many Off
Gals ana members of Congress that the
District can enforce TIE regulations. vet
the question will be gone into thorough
ly ana decided. If necessary the regu-
lations, incorporated in a bill already
prepared, will be submitted to Congress
as an act.
Meets General Approval.
All who were shown the regulations
today spoke approval. The Commission
ers indorsed them. and will aid In eff
forts to have them made either a police
regulation or q Congressional enact
ment. In general the regulations are
much similar to those of other large
cities which have had such laws in
force for a number Of years. They were
promulgated with the view of safe
guarding the public and saving time
and money for owners Of all kinds of
vehicles and especially heavy draft
wagons.
Sections similar to rules which have
governed traffic for several years are
Incorporated. There are no changes
which relate to keeping to the right.
turning from one street into another,
speed and signals of drivers. An i'm
portant section is that which defines a
driver" as including the rider and
driver OF horse, the rider of wheels,
and the operator of a motor vehicle or
street car.
Speed In Crowds.
Another important section is that
which deals with the speed of vehicles
Il is so framed that. although a vehicle
may be driven lower than the rate of
speed as set by the present law, it will
be in the power of a policeman to ar
rest for excessive speed should the We
hicle be in a crowded thoroughfare, and
the speed, though lower than twelve
miles an hour, dangerous to pedestrians
Or to other vehicles. This section reads:
NO vehicle or horse shall at any
time proceed at a greater speed than
the law allows or than is safe and prop
er under the conditions then obtaining
and the driver or rider of said vehicle
or horse shall exercise due care to SLOW
down where safety demands il, espe-
ciaily in making turns and in crossing
other highways: in narrow streets, and
in passing other vehicles, particularly
at night"

will slam the opening strike across the slab and will be the host of a number of newsPapermen and fans" from all over the territory. Flags well known reputation for ospitality will be sufficient invi- tation for the large crowd that will most certainly be on hand to wit ness what may be one of the most closely contested games of the sea- son, as Prescott has declared that they will go to Flag and get that game if it busts the whole team to do it. One reason for this strong rivalry is that Flag won the first league game from Prescott on Prescott's home grounds and the feeling is growing more intense every day.
 The Santa Fe has recognized the fact that there will be a number of people from all over the territory who will want to take advantage of the opportunity to witness a good ball game and has accordingly made special rates from all territorial points to Flagstaff and return.
 This is the first time that a real baseball league has ever been at tempted in the territory and it is due to the efforts of Alvord and his friends that it has been made pos sible. The long jumps and small number of large towns makes 1t difficult to meet expenses, and the deficit which will in all probability stare the directors in the face when the season is over will be met by the men who are re- sponsible for the league, out of their own pockets.

Prescott Threatens to Get the Game if it Busts the Whole Team to do It.
 Feeling Is Intense.

Prescott, May 6.--After six months of strenuous work, w. C. Alvord, president of the Northern Arizona Baseball league, has sue ceeded in getting four teams in the field and the fight for the pennant IS we'll under way.
 Flagstaff, Williams, Winslow and Prescott are represented and the enthusiasm shown by the citi- zens of the towns supporting the teams IS good proof that the na- tional game has many devotees in Arizona, here where the distance is too great to permit oi large leagues, such as they have in the east.
 The method of awarding the pen- nant is novel. There will be two seasons and the winner of each of these seasons will win a pen uant and the two winners will con- test in post season series for the championship of the league.
 A couple of old Phoenix players are in the league. Griialva is pitch ing for Flagstaff. Morris is catch ing for Prescott and both are mak- ing good.
 The first game to be played at Flagstaff will be on the fourteenth of this month. President Alvord

FLAGSTAFF WALLOPED
 WINSLOW|TES A.pLENTY
Game Was Tame and the Score Went High Wind Blamed for
 Bad Playing

Dr. Jakel's Highlanders, chap eroned by Shorty Gardner, went to Winslow last Sunday and att tended one of the greatest swatfests ever held on a Northern Arizona diamond. Iakel's bunch walloped Campbell's army of twirlers all over the lot for a home run, four three baggers, two doubles and IS singles which netted them 23 runs when the final round was done, while the Campbellites only managed to get II safe swats off Grijalva, one of which was a scratch home run that hit a peb- ble and bounded over Dodge s head and went rolling toward the Little Colorado river, and these scattering hits gave them s marks to their credit when the agony was oyer.
 Dodge started things tor Flag with a threebagger way over Ia ber's head and was closely fol- lowed by Baroldy with another and these two with an error on the part of Lohman gave us two to start with and the aviation meet was on. It was one-two- three for the Reds in their half.
 McCauley walked three men in the first half of the second; then came Ford with a soak for the third station, Baroldy, a single, Buckles with a double, and Burke and Thomas each with singles, and Campbell thought it was time to derrick McCauley and substi- tuted Lohman, but he didn't help matters much, for after walking two men we had 8 runs.
 The Highlanders then laid of until the 5th, when they got two more.
 Barckley managed to get one across the plate for the Reds in their half of the second, and Reno scored on Burke's error in the third, but it was zeros for them from then on until the 7th, when Grijalva let up a little and let them have three hits, which, with Baroldy's error, gave the Reds two more. In the Sth two little bingles and a bad stop by Dodge gave them three which they were not entitled to and big pebble out in center field was the cause of another in the last.
 In the sixth lakel's bunch got a pass, three timer and three safe singles for more runs. Taber was then put on the rubber in Lohman's place and twas one-two- three in the next round, but he fell down hard in the last inning when he gave two free ones, and then three costly errors let three men in-23 in all.

The high wind was probably the cause of so many long hits, and if it had not been for that the fans would no doubt have seen a much better game.
