Governor Harmon Asked for and Was Given Gus tody of Man Charged with Abandonment of His Five Year Old Child.

Governor Sloan has honored a requisition issued by Governor liar mon of Ohio and presented by w A. Bickford of Van Vert. for the GUS tody of Harvey C. Bradley, in jail in Tucson. and MT. Bickford has left for that city to secure his prisoner
 The charge against Bradley is the abandonment of his legitimate child. now years old Further details of his alleged crime are not available.
 The coming of Mir. BickfOrd. though strictly an official mission, was like visit to old friends. Though he was never here before, there are perhaps d dozen residents in and about the city who came from either his home town or adjoining places and with whom he is intimately ac- quainted. Not only that. but w. $. NOrviel. Governor Sloan's private sec retary. was a quite intimate friend in the days when NIT. Norviel lived in Ohio. Others of MT.

the last decade. the increase occurring in both imports and exports. Hides and wool are the principal articles inn ported from Russia, and cotton. agri- cultural implements. binding twi1e manufactures of iron and steel, and manufactures of leather are the most important of the exports to that coun- try.
 The above statements are basel upon figures of the United States gov ernment showing imports from and exports to Russia aS reported to the bureau of statistics by the customs au- thorities of this country. They differ materially. however. from the official figures of the Russian government showing her exports to. and imports frcm the United States. The Russian figures of imports from the United States are much larger than United States figures of exports to that cOun- try. while Russian figures of exports to the United States are much smaller than our own statement of imports from that country. These discppan- cies between the official figures of the respective countries are due chiefly tn the fact that in many cases goods il, the trade between the two countries are not consigned directly to the coun- try of ultimate destination. In such cases goods sent from the United States to Russia or from Russia tO the United States are consigned first tO a German, English, or other middle man who forwards them to their ul- timate destination. This is particular ly true of cotton, which is the most important article of export from the United States to Russia. The United States figures of total exports to Rus sia in the calendar year 1909 show q little less than Sl7.0O00d0. while the Russian figures show nearly $30,000. .000 worth of imports from this country. on the other hand. United States fig ures for the same year show imports Of over $16.0O0.OO0 worth of merchan- disc from Russia, while Russian figures for the same period show q little less than $6.OOO,OOO worth of exports to the United States

CLEARING OFF
 THE SIDEWALKS
Council Eliminates Display Privilege Enjoyed by
 Merchants.
ANNUAL REPORTS
 AND OTHER BUSINESS

Merchants who have been using Phoenix sidewalks on which to dis play their wares will be forced to discontinue the practice. At the council meeting last night the city attorney was ordered to prepare an ordinance to replace the one now on the city's statute books which allows business men to use three feet of side walk in front of their places of busi- ness for display purposes.
 This will cause some changes. es- pecially among dealers in fruit and vegetables Walks in the business dis trict have been partially obstructed for years. Attempt after attempt has been made to clear them, but none has been successful. Now the council thinks that the ordinance which will follow last nights action will put d stop to the many complaints which have been made.
 As it was the first meeting of a new year. the annual grist of reports was presented The city treasurer re- ported balance of $423, ,f52. G. The total receipts for 1911 were $76G, ,012 .G5. and the disbursements amounted to $3f2.O45.72 The city assessor re- ported that his receipts for the year just ended had amounted to SI59.- 757.4S The recorder has turned over s6,72l70 to the city treasurer as the receipts from his office Other re- ports which were presented were from the water company. the marshal. elec- trical inspector and superintendent of streets
 The city health officer recommend ed the appointment of Bert C. Brown as sanitary officer and the appoint ment was confirmed
 The draft of an ordinance fixing the licenses and providing for a board oi censors for picture shows and vaude- vile houses was considered again. II was referred back to the city attorney with instructions to amend it SD that the marshal and two councilmen will make up the board of censors.
