Capitalists Expected Here Within Three Months to Definitely Determin n C Upon Location and Other Details

With their eyes on Phoenix as a one of three or four steel plants which they claim the Electro Tool Steel company of Paris, contemplates erect ing in the southwest and -n Mexico Jacques Barney and Rene Heymann of Paris, arrived here yesterday and registered at the Commercial Hotel Incidentally they are acting as infor- nation agents for La France Steam ship company, now operating a line of steamships out of Cherbourg, gather ing data as to the country in and about San Diego which city will probably be the Pacific terminus of the company when the Panama canal is completed
 There are a hundred reasons why the Electro-TOol Steel company would probably find it to their advantage to locate a plant in Phoenix" said MT. Bernay speaking to reporter for the Republican.
 We find this city is the active cen ter of the great southwest and that there are adequate railroad facilities connecting this city with every point in Arizona and New Mexico It is not planned to erect a plant in this section such as we contemplate constructing a short distance outside of San Diego. but nevertheless we will need a plant of considerable size in Arizona to take care of the business we expect to ere ate in the southwest. The plant will be primarily for the refining of steer by a process that we have recently ac- quired and which promises 0 revOlu- tionize the steel industry. This and the other plants will furnish an outlet for the billet iron we can manufacture in France at an exceedingly low cost and ship through the canal to our plants in this section.
 The process controlled by the Eiec- tro-ToOl Steel company was perfected only about seven months ago and it has been decided that Western Ameri- ca is the place to exploit it. While we shall visit Prescott before leaving for Mexico. I can hardly conceive of find ing conditions anywhere more desir- able for the needs of the plant we

City Assessor Completes Fig ures for 1912 Showing in-
 creased Valuation.
Total Valuation ..$12, ,451, 1,295.90

Figures, the compiling of which were completed yester- day by City Assessor and Tax Collector C. w. Barnett, show the city of Phoenix to have an assessabIe property Valua ton approXimating $12,451,- 295.90. as compared with an assessed valuation last year of $11.531, ,95950. On the face of these figures it would appear that Phoenix had gained over over s920.0OO in assessable prop erty in twelve months, but the estimate of Collector Barnett is subject to changes by the board of equalization now sitting.
 When the figures of MT. Bar nett were sent to the board of equalization last year, that body proceeded to raise them until the final assessment reached about 12,OOO,OOO. It is possible that the board may proceed to raise the figures for 1912 in about the same ratio, although that body, in it's dis cretion, is in a position to low CT them.
 The foregoing table shows the general headings from which the grand total is obtained. The figures for 1911 as originally submitted by Collector Barnett were as follows:
 Real Estate ......$ 6,124, 4,525.00 Improvements ..... 3,507, ,133.00 Personal ......... 1899, l6l.5O Total Valuation. =. $11. {. .531 ,959.50
 It will be noted that the principal gains in the assess ment is found in the valuation of the improvements and in the general property.

 That he will serve out his third term depends chiefly on his longevity and he is about the huskiest man in Arizona today judging by his ap- pearances.
