These rates are good coming To

a good long time to not only see the
fair and all the natural wonders of the
country that will be gathered there,
and they will be manifold. but To see
also the many wonders of form and

Much of the credit for securing
these rates is being given to Secre-
tary Harry Welch. of the Phoenix
board of trade, for the comprehensive
grasp and mastery manner with
which he presented the arguments
which made the making of them look
good to the railroad companies. Mr..
WEIGH is too modest to give them
out, but the railroad officials speak
of them with pride. as something to
be long remembered with pleasure and
profit.
In these rates the railroads give

engagement i'm Turkish waters, of
an attack against Mytilene and the
blowing up of the Italian battleship
Contadi Caviour are not confirmed
in any quarter. An interesting re-
port current from Constantinople is
that while Germany is in favor of
the adoption of the Italian ultimatum
as a basis for peace negotiations,
Great Britain proposes that Tripoli
shall become tributary Turkish terri
tory under joint Turkish-Italian
domination, thus retaining the SOW
ereignty of the sultan.

The cruiser Giuseppe Garibaldi en-
tered the harbor entrance and Italian
officers visited the Hamidiah battery
and found the Turks removing the
sights from the guns. Three bodies
were found beside the battery. No
offer to capitulate was made. The
so-called English fort at the left har-
Dor entrance offered the greatest re-
sistance and its guns showed the
longest range. The fertilization was
reinforced by sandbags. 1t was nee
essary for warships to attack with
guns of higher calibre and two bat
tleships were brought into play before
the fort was silenced.
