Republican Meeting.

Yesterday evening the repubh- can nominee for Congress from Ari- zona, Hon. Thomas Campbell of Yavapai, and Hon. Lyman H. Hays of Cochise, addressed the people of Nogales and vicinity from the stand in the park in front of the Montezuma hotel. The gentlemen faced goodly audience, and they held the attention of their auditors from the beginning of the speech of MT. Hays, who opened, to the close of the address of Mir. Campbell Each gentle man presented the issues of the day from the republican stand point in d clear and convincing manner, and it was apparent that each made a decidedly favorable impression.
 Mir. Campbell has served the people of Yavapai county in the territorial legislature, where he was instrumental in se- curing enactment of progressive legislation, and he has been as- sessor of Yavapai county five years or more, which post he fills now, having been elected by the largest majority given any candidate on either ticket last year. He has been and is president of the State Assessors Association, and has been very instrumental in securing equitable taxation legislation In the course of his address MT Campbell took strong ground il favor of the constitutional amend ment now pending, giving tn, legislature power to regulate thu equalization of taxes and to con trol boards of equalization, whicl seems to have been overlooked il making "the best constitution eve framed" Mir. Campbell took als advanced ground for adoption c the constitutional amen d m n granting equal suffrage.

FUND FOR RETIREMENT
IS NOW DEEMED LIKELY
Senate Committee Expected to
Report the Cummins
Bill.

The adoption by Congress of a compre-
hensive system for the retirement Of gov
ernment clerks, for which there has been
years Of agitation and labor, Is now re-
garded as more likely than ever by rea-
son Of the favorable attitude which the
Senate committee on civil service has
taken toward the Cummins civil service
retirement bill.
That the committee will order favor
able report on the measure, practically as
it was introduced by Mr.. Cummins, Is
the prediction made today by a member
Of tho committee who has learned the at
thude Of the individual members
One change is likely to be made in the
bill. It's general plan, as 1t stands. Is
for q lump sum payment to clerks when
they are retired, and It IL proposed to ap-
tpty this to those retired within the
next few years. despite the fact that the
contributions they make to the fund Will
not. with interest, equal the lump sum
proposed to be given them.
Instead of providing the giving Of a
lump sum to these employees now In the
service who will be retired within the
next few years, It is proposed to change
ments or annuities. This Is expected to
reduce the amount of appropriations nec-
essary to put the system into operation.
After twenty years the contributory
feature Of the bill-by which monthly
contributions from salary and interest
will equal the amount Of the lump sum
to be paid at retirement-will be in full
effect, and then the lump sum plan will
be carried out

MAY HAVE MET LIKE FATE.
No Word Of the Mountoswald, Now
Fifty-Nine Days Out.

BALTIMORE. Md, April 19.-Sailing
from Baltimore February 20, the tramp
steamer Mountoswald has not been heard
from since she passed out the capes two
days later bound to Hamburg. and 1t is
generally believed she Is companion on
the bottom Of the sea Of the steamship
Titanic.
1t usually takes the Mountoswald twen-
ty-five days at the longest to make the
trip to the German port, and AZ she 10
now f1fty-nine days out the Atlantic
Transport Company. agent here for the
Hamburg American line. under whose
contract the MOuntoswald sailed. believes
that she struck an iceberg and went
down with her crew Of thirty-fve men.
No vessel has reported passing the HAM
burg-bound ship, and no word has come
to the local agents Of the fate OF the
Mountoswald. She was not equipped
with wireless. for she carried no pas
sengers, and her fate will not be &C
curately known until some wreckage II
seen.
Hoping against hope. friends of Capt.
Strannard and his men hold to the belief
that when the steamer stranded the crew
was able to get away safely.
The agents who dispatched the vessel
say that the cargo consisted Of grain,
lumber, homtny and other articles and
was valued at about $75,OOO The vessel
had called at this port many times. and
her master was well known along the
water front.
