when the Senate refused TO accept
House amendment to the pending Rail-
road bill providing that all future issues
OF stocks or railroad securities be
placed under the control OF the Inter-
state Commerce Commission. Many
or the Senate Democrats opposed II as
an invasion Of States rights.
President Taft at the time told Re-
publican leaders the party was COM
mitted to such q measure, but when IL
appeared Impossible to pass It the
President agreed to have the clause
eliminated. with the understanding that
. commission to study the subject
would be allox ed.
began work In the autumn Of 1910.
Public hearings wers held and Chair
man Hsdley studied the problem
abroad.
The commissions report Is distinctly
adverse to the legislation proposed in
the Railroad bill.
The Commission takes the ground that
constitutional questions involving the
scope and extent Of Federal authority
are unsettled and will remain 90 for
some time, and that while such a con-
dillon exists TO superimpose Federal
regulation upon State regulation would
add to the conflicts and complexities
which. IN the public interest, should
rather be diminished than increased.
CHANGE STATE CHARTERS FOR
FEDERAL.
"Unless the constitutional power Of
Congress to regulate securities Of inter-
state railroads II definitely established
as being exclusive of State control,
either the Federal Government n tho
States will come TO a general under
standing as to the principles TO be
adopted In the control Of security issues
or the railroad systems will be given
the opportunity to exchange their State
charters for Federal ones" says the
report.
Until such exclusive Jurisdiction can
b established the creation OF a sep
arats administrative body subjecting the
railroads to a new system of concur
rent supervision. In addition TO the many
old ones which now exist. does not seem
Just. expedient or economical"
For the present. the commission re-
commends that complete publicity b re-
CURED to surround all issues of securities
and that any Interstate railroad issuing
stocks and bonds be required to furnish
to the Interstate Commerce Commission
a fun statement of the details OF tho
Issue. the purposes for which the pro-
ceeds are to be used, and an accounting
for the expenditures of such proceeds.

expenditure OF the proceeds Is the matter

The case involved merchandise tn 1t was consigned to Joffroy as a oro ler, intenGe for E. Gol zalt B at Guaymas. Karam, who was in business at Cananea at the time, got the goods by mistake of clerk of loffroy. About the same time Joffroy lost another case of goods consigned to him for Karam, and the latter held the goods of Con- gales in lieu of his own. Karam and his witnesses swore that he had done so by agreement with Joffroy. The latter testified that there was no such agreement; but his testimony was without support, and as it was a case of three against one Joffroy lost out.
 There will be very little doing in the court today. The case of Manuel Ramirez, which resulted in a mistrial yesterday, will be tried probably, and there are some minor matters.
 Monday the cases against Fer, nando Yslas and Maxine Saldate will be tried. The accused are charged with murder. They are alleged to have killed three Chinese they were piloting across the line, and assaulting a fourth with the intent to kill him.
 The cases involving the Nogales Gas Company are set for trial next Friday

BATTLE AT AQUA PRlETA.
lnsurrectos Take the Town. Fierce Fighting. Bullets Fly In Douglas,
 With Fatal Effect.

Information from Douglas is to the effect that on Thursday the town of Agua Prieta, Sonora, one mile away, was captured by GnSU. rrectOS, commanded by Red" LIpez, who siezed d train coming from Nacosari, and rode into town by rail, leaving the horses at Cabu- Ilona, the first station out. The operator at that station wired the situation, and the federal troops at Agua Prieta opened fire on the train as soon as it reached the station. The inSurrectO8 allghted, |, ran to the shelter of bull pen, not far away, worked around that, to the north side of the town, and attacked the federals from that side. Fighting was fierce and heavy losses are reported on both sides.
 With the attack from the north the City of Douglas, Arizona, but g mile away, was directly in the line of the federal fire, and bullets sang and whistled through the streets in all directions. One man upon a switch engine, at the rail. way station, at the extreme north side of the town, nearly two miles away from the battle, was hit by a stray bullet and killed. Another walking along a street was wound ed mortally and has died since, and dozen others were wounded more or less seriously. The school house was in the line of fire, and the school was dismissed, the frightened children running through the streets to their homes crying and screaming. The Cham Der of Commerce at Douglas wired the President asking that something be done to prevent such occurrences
 4 portion of the federal troops in Agua Prleta, hard pressed, !, abandoned their arms and flew to the American camp, north of the line.

from La Colorado a


 A "Picnic Party" was given on the "Far Famed" Tennis Court the afternoon of the 10th in honor of Mr. NJ F. Perry's birthday" Everyone that could attend came, bringing their baskets filled with good things to eat A table, the full length of the court, had been arranged, with benches-this for fear some of the ladies might not care to sit as they did in their "girlhood" days-"before the hob. ble skirt" The table was soon loaded down with good things and appeared to be more than the sixty-eight could eat, without camping for week.
 After all were seated five Chinese walters were kept busy passing and bringing refreshments, during which many toasts were given, speeches made and stories told. Cigars were passed and as every one had done justice to the meal, a motion was made seconded and carried that the party retire to the home of Mir. Perry, where Mrs. Perry had arranged for an even- ing's entertainment, there was music and singing and it was we'll past midnight when the party was brought to an end with many we'll wishes.
 During MT. Perry's address, in answer to the many speeches and toasts given by bis employees, he thanked them for their good wishes and for the good work they had done and hoped while he was away, as he was leaving in a week, that they would continue as though he was present and he was sure they would, as they had never failed him.
 The next day Mir. Perry received a cable to leave at once for San Salvador. He left Wednesday for San Bias, where he will take the steamer that will land him at his destination on the 4th of next month.
 Mir Perry goes as general man ager for the "Butters Salvador Mines" in San Salvador. He still remains as general manager of the Creston Colorado Company. which position he has held for the past five years, as well as general manager of the Charles Butters Company, which position he has held for the past twelve years MT Perry Is a man of new ideas and up to date in every branch of the mining business. and it is to that and his great executive ability

club was concluded yesterday after
noon. The wind was strong greater
part OF the day, but less gusty and fitful
Than on Sunday.
The star of the day was French OF

gets out of 200 and broke the first 106
that were thrown for him. He was in
magnificent form. The Wards, father
and son Of Aberdeen. were both In
good form, "A. ]. missing only four and

Nashold of Fargo pulled up in the
last days shoot and got among the
high men for the tournament. The
rest of the Fargo bunch was shooting
out of form as compared to their usual
work, or to their records in other tourn-
Rments this year.
The meet was a decided success in
every respect and many of the cracks
went on today to Winnipeg for the
shoot there this week.
There were forty Ave participants in
yesterdays shoot, six more than on
Sunday.

NASTY ROW IN

Philadelphia, July 11.-Lurinr the
third inning of yesterdays game be-
tween the Philadelphia and st. Louis
Nationals, Sherwood Magee, left field
or of the home team, assaulted Umpire
Ffnneran The latter's lip was split
and he was compelled to go to a hos
pital.
In the second inning Magee objected
when called out by Umpire Rigler
while trying to steal second. In the
next inning Magee was called out on
strikes by F1nneran. Magee threw his
bat in the air and started away from
the plate. For this exhibition, Finner-
an ordered him to the clubhouse. Ma
gee rushed at Finneran, who stepped
toward the player. The men clinched
for a second. Then Magee stepped
back and shot out his left. with full
force. The blow landed on Finneran's
mouth and he fell to the ground.
Finneran finally managed to get to
his feet, with blood flowing from his
lip. He made rush for Magee but
was held by other players.
Finding that he could not stop the
flow of blood Finneran went to a hos
pital for treatment Rigler finished
the game alone.
Magee claims the assault was pro-
voked by Finneran calling him an Of
fensive name when he was ordered off
the field. Finneran denies that he
called Magee any names. IT simply
told him to get out Of the game" he
said.
A riot call was turned in but the SER
vices of large force Of policemen who
arrived were not needed.
