LOS ANGELES, April S.--witL spring still lingering in the lap Of winter and with a. nearly perpetual fog, swaddling the city, Arizonans who have come here during the past week, have soon missed the sunshine and have fled back home until times be more propiuous- and the weather little more do. cent. Result, little or no real news of interest to southern Arizonans.
 Indeed about the only thing of general interest to the folk of the southern part of the new state, that has trsnspired during the week was the coup made by the attorneys for the Santa Fe railroad last Wednesday, whereby it is hoped to put an end DO the trial of the road on a charge of relating. It was alleged by the government, it will be remembered tha. the Santa Fe granted the Grand Canyon Lime and Cement company rebates on shipments of it's product from Nel- son, Ariz., to southern California points. The indictment specifically states that a rebate was granted the shipper on a car of lime. the legal rate on which was s7o Il car load of 40.0OO pounds.
 Legal Tansie-
 Attorney T. J. Norton, fer the int hat published tariff shows the rate to have been s3.50 a ton in carload lots. and he cited fact that the United States court of appeals re- versed the decision in the former 1 trial of the case on the ground that "a tariff sheet showing an estas- lished and published rate on bulk lime between two points at S3.5O ton in carload lots of not less ;han 10000 pounds did not sustain the indictment against the carrier for granting concession which al legged that the established rate was S7O a car of 10000 pounds, min mum"
 Hence it will be seen that the railroad rests it's defense on the fine point or distinction between at rate of S3.50 ton on carload lots of 10000 pounds each, and $70 2 car of 4O,O0O each. It's a /tangle that the court may have 70 take some days to decide. In view of the fact that in a sense the trial is more or less a test case, and that
 other and even more importan. cases hinge on the outcome. the interest in the matter is genera among shippers from southern Ari Eona.
 Low Rates a Benefit.
 Of course, southern Arizona witt Ian the rest of the western country is feeling the effects of the low colonists rates installed by the rail
 roads and which expire next Mon
 day. With the end of the sprint colonist season so near at hand, th'
 amount of tourist travel has picke; up wonderfully during the last weel
 or ten days, according to the state ment Of the officials of the diferen railroads. Arizona has gained enoI mously, say the publicity men O the Southern Pacific, in speakin
 of the matter All of the trans eontinentaI roads have planned . . but on extra ears during the las lew days of the rates to handl , the expected additional rush fror ' the east. The officers of the con panies assert that during the mex
 few days the number of settler

 will be largely augmented. Th Southern Pacific and the Santa F
 are both making unusual prepar'
 tions to handle the throngs e , l.ected-
