NEW STATION AT
CULLEOkA READY
ALMOST ALL THE EVIDENCES OF
THE BIG STORM HAVE BEEN
WIPED OUT.

With the completion of the new sta
ton of the Louisville &. Nashville
Railroad and the new packing house
of the Culleoka Produce Company at
Culleoka practically all of the evil
dences of the great storm of March
13, last have been removed. The
new station building is almost ready
for occupancy. The offices of the
agent and dispatchers will be moved
into it early next week. The build.
ing is frame with tile roof. 1t is a
handsome and substantial structure
and contains besides the Offices and
operating room, concrete floored
baggage and express room, white
and a colored waiting room and a
freight room.
The building will have broad con-
crete walks all around it and con-
crete platforms will be built from
the station to the main line railroad
track. Hereafter the passengers will
board the trains from the west side
instead of the east side as has been
the inconvenient custom in the past.
The packing house Of the Culleoka
Produce Company has been erected
On the site OF the building destroyed
in the cyclone. 1t is, however, Iarg-
Ter and roomier structure. 1t will be
read in few days and in ample time
for the opening of the packing season.
The company will prabably pack 800
hogs this fall.

CHINESE PRESIDENT
BOUNCtS MEMBERS
OF OPPOSITION PARTY
MORE THAN THREE HUNDRED
EXPELLED FROM PARLIAMENT
Al PEkiN.
WILL HAVE A SERIOUS EFFECT
A Crisis in the Situation is About
Reached and Martial Law Is in op-
Grafton in the Capital and Disorders
Are Spreading Through Kingdom.

PEKIN, Nov. 5.-The struggle be
tween the Chinese parliament and
President Yuan Shi Kai has brought
about drastic action by the president
which, in the option of many, will
have a serious effect on parliamentary
government. Lengthy presidential
ploclamations were issued at mid
night expelling the Kwo Ming Tang
party, numbering more than 800 mem
bers from parliament.
The proclamations recount the diff
ficulties with which the government
has been struggling since the Manchu
regime and describe disasters which
are certain to follow if parties such
as the Kwo Ming Tang are permitted
to exist.
The Kwo Ming Tang party was for
merly headed by DR.. Sun Vat Sen, the
first provisional president of China,
who now is in exile, but during the
recent rebellion was acquired by
Yuan Shi Kai to dismiss it's southern
leaders. Nevertheless, members of
the party continued to fight in parlia-
ment for the curtailment of Yuan Shi
Kai's authority.
A crisis in the situation was report
ed last week when the draft of the
proposed constitution made the pres
ident absolutely dependent on parlia-
ment.
Martial law is in operation in Pc
kin, the authorities are engaged in
making arrests and summary execu-
lions, which have been numerous
since the REBELLION began, it is under
stood, will continue. Preparations
are under way for the elder states
men who served under the Manchus
to resume their position in the cabi-
net.
At various legations the opinion is
held that only by strong action can
the President prevent the disruption
of China by her own people. Very
little has been accomplished by par
lament, which has devoted its time
to opposing the President since it
convened, while disorders are spread
inng.

for four regional reserve banks to
administer the new currency system,
n Nf ~
banks arose. Under the administra-

tiOns.

RATES TO
ARIZONA ARE
REDUCED

LOS ANGELES, Cal, June 1S.-A
general reduction in the class freight
rates between Los Angeles and Ari
iona and New Mexico points, which
means that jobberS and merchants of
this city will now be placed on an
equitable competing basis with those
of FL PaSo, Denver and Kansas City
for the business of this vast district,
was announced yesterday at the local
offices of the Santa Fe and Southern
Pacific Railroads.
The new tariff schedule, which To-
business activity for Los Angeles and
Southern California and incure a
heavy commerce through the harbor
following the opening of the Panama
Canal, comes as result Of long
and determined fight on the part of
the Associated Jobbers of Los An
geles. While the reduction is not
based on ruling of the interstate
commerce commission, 1t is stated
that the new schedules were deter
mined on at the suggestion of Frank.
lin K. Lane before he quit the ma
| tional commission for Wilson's Cabi
net, and forestalls such ruling.
The reduced rates go into effect
July 18th, and after that date, the 10
cal wholesale merchant shipping
canned goods and sugar, or other
articles coming under classification
| No. 4, of the class rates, will be re
quired to pay but 80 cents per hun
dred on a shipment to Phoenix, Oh

ent he is charged SLAP.

provided by Article VIII of the Con-
stitution of the State of Arizona as
amended. The grounds of such de-
mand for recall are:
This recall is invoked for the rea-
son that the Honorable John c. Phil
lips has proven incompetent to occu-
py the position of Superior Judge of
Maricopa County, and for the further
reason that he has in the past few
months refused to permit juries to
pass upon issues of fact in cases IN
the said Superior Court and in doing
so he has seemed to favor the man
of wealth and the corporation as
against the working man who was
injured or killed. Believing this to
be contrary to American principles
and against ordinary justice we seek
the recall of the aforesaid Superior
Judge and the election in his stead
of one competent and unprecedented
who will administer the law in
spirit of justice without reference 20
distinction among our citizens.
The recall of Judge Phillips was
threatened Immediately after the dis
missal of the Strinker case and since
then the business of preparing the
petition has been going on 1t was
not generally believed that the recall
movement would materialize until
was sent to the printer
Approval was given the petitions
prepared for the recall of Superior
Judge J. c. Phillips and Rolla G. Stan
ford was unanimously endorsed for tn
office, at meeting of the Phoenix
Trades Council Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Stanford had refused to allow
his name to be used in connection
with the recall movement. A repre-.
sentative of the trades council called
upon him yesterday afternoon and
urged that he come out openly as a
candidate, but he declined to do Lie
is the unanimous choice of the labor
ing people, however, and they express
hope today that their action in endors
ing him will have the desired enect
1--WE want it distinctly understood
that we are not impugning the mo

UNION LABOR WANTS
JUDGE RECALLED
Petition Being Circulated Against Su-
perior Court Judge Because of
Certain Alleged Unpopular
Decisions.
PETITION STATES
Decision in Favor of Mining Company
Against Member of Union is the
Cause Of Petition Being
Circulated.

Some of the members of the Phoe-
nix Trades Council have drawn up a
petition for the recall of Judge John
C. Phillips of the superior court or
Maricopa county. The trainers OF the
petition claim that the judge is in
competent and biased in favor OF the
so-called capitalist class
Charges were also made last eve
ming that the judge had, to use the
words of the speaker "peddled his
cases around among the d1Herent
LAWYERS in Phoenix" and asked them
to render decisions on various PROB
lens that had come up before the
superior court. When asked the
names of the lawyers who had been
approached by the judge, the speaker
was unable to name any. Tne olS
missal of the case of Strinker VS..
the Ray Consolidated Mining com
pany was the precipitating cause OF
the recall movement.
A damage suit against the Mesa
Improvement company Wnlcn wen
out of court the same way was an
other cause of dissatisfaction. ANT
still another was the disposition o
the damage suits growing out OF tnt
collapse of the roof OF the Weh
building last September.

ST. PETERSBURG. June 10
Eighty women were burned to death
today by villagers in the district of
Piriatin, in the province of Poltava,
Southern Russia, according to a
newspaper of Liamin. The victims
were laborers imported to work on
a large sugar estate, at wages lower
than the villagers would accept.
The enraged, excited villagers fas-
tened all means of exit from
wooden barn where the girls were
housed, then set the place on ire.
The inmates were asleep when the
flames started and all were burned
to death without a chance to escape.

By Waener.)

The task of picking pennant win ner in the Eastern association this year is harder than picking out a straw hat from the array of bonnets crowded on you by the gentlenanly clerk. It looks like a grand scramble for the flag this season whereas in 1912 New Haven romped home in front by a mile.
 Just at present New Haven and New London are playing the best ball. Jerry Councils champions are fully as strong if not stronger than in. 1912. They thought the infield was wrecked when Flick was drafted but Rolling. secured from St. Louis, is a better hit ter than Flick The pitching staff with Burch, Hopper, Thomas, Jensen and Smith is a corker and the out field is good. Foster is always on hand with the base hits and Kerr and Barr are sluggers. These two are veterans from the Southern league who didn't get going in the first two weeks. They appear to have struck their pace now.
 New London also has a fine pitch ing staff. Abercromb bic was the best pitcher in the South Atlantic. league in s1912 and Radabough, another South erner, has been a winner for the Planters, too With Reiger and Kun keI going we'll and Stark coming from Detroit the Planters are well fixed Manager Burns has fair inf1eld and hard hitting 'outfe1d in Briggs.

 Bridgeport has been in a slump for the past week, due to the fact that the pitching has gone to pieces. The fn1eld is the best McCann ever had and in fact nothing since the 1904 combination could touch it. Yale, O'Rourke, Downey and Odell guarded the works that year. @ |

CUBAN DIAMOND
 STARS ARE RICH
Acosto and CaIvO of Washington
 Sons of Wealthy Planters

Washington, May 10-Ba1dy Acosta and Jacinto Calvo, utility outfelders with the Senators, are scions of old spanish families .on the isle of Cuba, and their fathens are owners of large plantations, young Ca1vo's dad own. ing a sugar and tobacco plantation on which are employed 150 men. Neither of the two youngsters, aged sixteen and nineteen, respectively, ever play ed professional Baseball until late last fall
 Calvo's first professional baseball game was played on the island Octo. 6, 1912, against the New Orleans team, the Cuban AImendares team whipping the Pelicans to l. with Calvo horn Ing into the box score, with three safe cracks, one of them a double. It was when the Athletics were on the island, still later. that Calyo, with his brother Tomas, Aeosta and Miguel Gonzales, for a time with the Braves, made such a strong showing that they were talk en up by big league teams. Calvo hit the pitching of the Athletics veterans just as he had been hitting the anna teur pitchers of Cuba Libre.
 Both Cuban youngsters admit they like the United States better than they did the island. They plan to stick here and learn baseball from the ground up As Ca1vo told a reporter both of them intend to help put base ball on a firm foundation in Cuba. The two youths room together. They have not been bothered by homesicIk- ness, which aff1iction has chased so many of the youngsters out of big league baseball. In Cuba their par ents were somewhat opposed to them playing on teams on which there would also appear three Or four coll ored players.
 While the two are in Washington they are tutored in the English Ian-l guage. During the forthcoming winter they intend to play baseball in Cuba. Both of them love the game and can not get too much practice. They. find it irksonae when the Senators are on the road because they are obliged tol forego5 the daily morning practice that comes when the club is at Washing ton
