tory talk of the government g purpose

BIG DEAL REPORTED
 IMPORTANT F TRUE
But Thus Far There is No Verfca
 ton of the Story.

story was published yesterday by an afternoon paper to the effect that the property of the Arizona Street Railway company, better known as the Phoenix railway. had been bought or is about to be pur- chased by the Salt River Valley Railway company better known as the White" Line. the consideration being approximately a million dol lars.
 The story first got into circula- tion here as early as the middle Ol the week s. H. Mitchell. president of the Arizona company was asked concerning it and replied that it was the first information he had had that any such deal was pending. After -the publication yesterday Mir. Mitch ell was interrogated again and replied that if there was any such transac- tion on he had not yet been apprised of it. It is understood that L. H Chalmers. counsel for the company has made similar statements.
 It is reported that certain of the White Line officials are in Los An geles and it is not impossible that ii they have enough money and hold it out to General sherman who is re- puted to still be the principal owner of the property, that he might take it, but so far as can thus far bt learned by inquiry. the story is merely d rumor.
