LONGER THEY VIEW II
 THE WORSE II SEEMS CONGRESSIONAL INSPECTION OF
 THE CONSTITUTION. The North, South and East Grow
 More Antagonistic.

Prescott, Jan. 30.-A special to the Journal Miner says:
 As the Arizona constitution is eX- amined and carefully digested by sen- ators and representatives of the north south and particularly the east. antag- onistic sentiment is more intense than was expected The expressions and the life of the president for years vii cause him to reject the radical ''isms.- particularly the provision for the re- call of the judges.
 One of the most prominent demo- cratic members from the south said he would refuse a judgeship because he would lose own self respect and independence with the recall hanging over his head.
 Many members of both houses refeI to Secretary Taft's speeches advising the rejection of the Oklahoma con- stitutiOn because of ''isms" that were not SD radical as those of the Arizo- ma constitution.
 The "insurrectos" republicans con- tinually lose everything they try for with no chance to change President Taft's open expressed and positive views

A Chinook" Turning the Snow to Waterfall road Tied Up and Much of the Lowland Along All the Rivers Flooded.

san Francisco, Calf, Jan. 3O-After seventeen days of almost continuous rais the January rain record in san Francisco for nearly fifty years is exceeded with d mark of thirteen in chcs. Chinook conditions prevail in northern California ana heavy fall of snow, the first or the year. is rapidly melting under the WdrI1 wind and rain of the past two days Conse- qucntly the railroads and river towns are in trouble
 High water marks are threatened and thousands of acres of low lands are under water The most serious ue-up is near Stockton where the Southern Pacific tracks are too far under water to attempt to move trains tonight
 Train No. 1 of the Western Pacific did not leave for the east tonight on account of big snowslide near Ked- die in Feather river canyon. Southern Pacific trains held up by washouts near Santa Barbara reached San Francisco shortly after midnight All schedules on the southern divisions of the coast line are restored.

WHAT HAS BECOME
 OF ALL THE MONEY? THE BANKS HAVE GREATLY DE- CREASED DEPOSITS. The Report of the Comptroller Bris-
 ties With Puzzles.

Washington, Jan. 3O-Deposits of individuals in the 7.200 national banks of the United States decreased $19l, 566, ASS between November 10 and January ?. a situation probably un- precedented in reports made to the comptroller of the currency. More than $l5S, 900 was withdrawn from thirty national banks in New York city. No two officials of the treasury agree where the money went
 Some of it are of the opinion that part of it might have gone to strengthen the New York state banks and trust companies in the furry caused by the so-called Robin fail urc. A comparison with the national banks of Chicago shows that the de crease was not confined entirely to New York. Eleven Chicago banks reported a loss of about S9,000.00O in individual deposits. Reserve banks of the western and Pacific states and New England show losses, cOmpara tively small
 Another feature that generally pug zles the treasury experts Is that m spite Of the enormous slump in de- posits the banks are holding higher percentages of reserve than in No vember. and the total loss and dis counts has been only $iS.OOO.0OO' while there has been a gain in cash of more than S2O,0O0.OO0 The banks of the south are about the only ones showing gains of deposits.

THE FLIGHT ID HAVANA
4 Trivial Accident Necessi-
 tated His Descent to the Sea When Within Ten Miles of the Goal -Disap- pointment of the Cubans.

Havana, Jan. 3O.-J. A. D. McCurdy. a Canadian by birth, but now affiliated with American aviatOrs, set a new record today in over -the-water flights. covering nearly a hundred miles from Key West to within ten miles of Ha- vana, where he was compelled to drop into the sea. There he remained. his bi-plane floated by pontoons. until the torpedo boat destroyer Terry picked him up.
 With victory within his grasp and the goal in plain view, an accident. trivial in itself. robbed him of his al- most won title of cOnquerOr of the Florida straits. A break in a small part of the engine, ruptured crank case, permitting the escape of the lUbri- eating oil, and necessitated his de- scending.
 The descent was made between the Paulding and the Terry, the leading ships, which were about ten miles apart.
 The pOntOOns proved buOyant. Me Curdy not even wetting his feet The ! Terry's life boat took him off and he
 was finally taken aboard the PGulding
 Efforts to hoist the machine on the | launching platform failed Grsppling irons were finally used and the aero plane was badly damaged. While the work was going on the Cuban flagship Haturi arrived from Havana, carrying President Gomez and party of friends. The president shouted congratulations on the pluck of the aviator and regret at his ill., fortune. After an hours delay the squadron started for Havana, entering the harbor a few minutes after o'clock
 McCurdy. landing from the Paulding. proceeded to the drill grounds at Camp Columbia. where he gave an exhibition. rising 1900 feet and performing a va riety of maneuvers. He used the ma chine of one of the other aviators at the meet in progress here.
 The accident" McCurdy declared. ''Only increases my desire to effect the conquest of the Florida straits and I have the fullest confidence that I can do it. do not know what I shall be able to make another attempt, but un- der such conditions as prevailed today am sure of success"
 McCurdy was two hours in the air covering an estimated distance of ninty-siX hours Disappointment was keen in Havana over the aViatOr's mis- hap On the firing of three cannon signalling his start all business was suspended.

JOURNAL 0F COMMERCE
 AND SHIP SUBSIDY RESTORATION OF CLAIM OF THE DoDsWoRTHs
The Indefinite Attempts to Secure
 the Papers Influence

Washington. Jan 3O-John W. Dodsworth. editor of the New York Journal of Commerce. Charles A Conant. of New York. formerly it's correspondent here. and F. c. Don aid, of Chicago, commissioner of the Central Passenger Association. were witnesses before the house committee on the investigation of the ship sub sidy charges today The committee adjourned until Feb. G.
 Dodsworth said he regarded all ship subsidy as graft but he conceded that there were men honestly sup porting that cause. He agreed sub stantially with his brother. W. D. Dodsworth. business manager of the paper. that attempts to buy its in fluencc had been made. but did not recall but two of them, the $40, 900 proposition. and DeLesseps offer for its influence when the French Pan anna canal company was trying to sell its property to the United States
 Attorney Worthington for the Mer- chant Marine League said the League had reason to believe that the whole story of those attempts was plan concocted recently to discredit the ship subsidy advocates
 Dodsworth said that a check for a blank sum offered to his father thir- ty years ago was offered personally by an agent of John Roach, the snip builder
 Referring to the matter forwarded to the paper by Charles COnant of New York to set out the Spanish governments position just prior to the Spanish American war Dodsworth said that so far as he knew no money prdpOsition was made.
 Dr. Conant testified that he had not communicated any money offer to the press in favor of the Spanish govern ment He said that in the winter Of 1S96-7 when Spain was hoping to put down the instruction, and proclaim sweeping economic reforms he recom- mended to w. A. Dodsworth then the editor. that what Spain had cOmmu- nicated to Secretary Olncy in that regard should be given proper public ity with view of allaying misapSre- hension in the United States. There was no criticism of the state depart ment in what he said. The article was prepared at the instance of the Spanish legation.

FIVE MEMCANS ATTACK
 AND BEAT UP SWEDE
Police Capture Gang Of Robbers After
 Their Victim Has Escaped.

One big Swede found himself no match for five MeXicans who assaulted him with robbery as their object just east of the New Airdome theater short ly after r. o'clock last night. With a murderous blackjack Manuel Mazon beat up A. Hanson. the Swede, so that the Scandinavian's best friends would have difficulty in recognizing him. All they got was a quarter and four were landed in the city jail. The fifth MeXi- can escaped from the police.
 According to the story Hanson told. he attended the show at the Airdome and later meandered homeward. Mazon approached him, called him amigo" and asked him to sit down on q bench placed on the sidewalk. Mazon soon after gave a peculiar whistle but Han son thought nothing of it. A moment later he felt something in his pocket and angrily told Mazon to keep his hands away.
 "Something must have hit me then, said Hanson. T went down on my face and then four other fellows ran up and jumped on me. But | jumped up and ran"
 Hanson certainly looked like some thing had hit him. His face was GOV cred with blood and gashed iT num- erous places. The skin had been peeled from the back of the fingers of the right hand. with which he had evident ly tried to ward off Mazons black jack
 After shaking himself loose from his assailants Hanson made a bee line for the police station. Captain Connors, with officers Long and Bradley. re- spended. They found all five of the Mexicans gathered in knot by Lount's ice plant. a block east of where the as-

WORDS OF M k|NLEY His Buffalo UttGrdnCcs On
 Subject of Reciprocity QUOTED BY THE PRESIDENT
His Address Before the Ohio Society Banquet Last Night on the Occa-
 sion of the Birthday of the Martyred President.

Washington, D. C., Jan. 3O.-The last public utteranccs of President Mckinley in favor of reciprocity made the day before his assassination at Buffalo were recalled tonight by Pres ident Taft in an address at the ohio Socicty's anniversary banquet in con- memoration of McKinleys birthday. MT. Taft eulogized the character of the martyrcd president and paid d high tribute to his attitude on the commercial expansion of the country, with particular reference to the de- clarations in favor of reciprocity gen erally made by President Mckinley at the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo.
 The broadening effect of the re- sponsibility MT. Mckinley had to car ry," said MT. Taft. shows itself in no respect more consciously than in his change of view regarding the pol icy of which he had always been the chief exponent. May we not hope that the change he advocated may soon find expression in our national policy toward our good neighbors in the north, who have come half way to meet us? The Canadian agreement if confirmed will be a fitting close to the century's controversies. and per- manently establish d good feeling of commercial union between kindred peoples. We shall find a rapidly in- creasing market for our numerous products. We shall deepen and widen the sources Of our food supply in the territory close at hand.
 Canada is our neighbor for three thousand miles She has become d great country, indeed, nation. She extends the brutherly hand of friend ship and proposes closer relations with mutual benefits. Ought we to decline? '? The last words of Mckinley urge acceptance"
 In quoting MT. Mckinley on trade arrangements. MT. Taft said:
 The period of cXclusiVCncss is passed. The expansion of our trade commerce is a pressing problem. Com mercial wars are unprofitable. The policy of good will and friendly trade relations will prevent reprisals Re ciprocity treaties are in harmony with the spirit times; and measures of re taliation are not If perchance some of our tariffs are no longer needed for revenue or to encourage and protect our industries. at home, why should they not be employed to extend and promote our markets abroad?
 Thus did Mckinley in his last pub lie utterance declare for reciprocity"

The Probability of Its Veto Being

Washington. Jan. 3O.-Doubt wheth- CT President Taft will veto the gen eral pension bill cOmpIicates the situ- ation in the senate committee on pen sions, where the proposed legislation is considered.
