 Washington. D. G. Important changes in the administration curren. y lill have re suit ed from the executive work on the measure by the Senate Committee. The committee postponed the proposition to substitute d central government-control bank for the regional bank plan stipulated in the bill. On this proposition the members were evenly divided
 The complexion of the proposed re serve board was materially altered by amendments adopted. It was decided to increase the membership of the board from seven, as fixed in the house bill, to nine and to eliminate the secretary of agriculture and the comptroller of the currency from the board
 There has been much discussion of the number of regional banks to be created by the bill, if the regional plan Is maintained, but no conclusion was reached. The administration support CTS in the committee endeaVored to keep the number as near 12 as possi- ble, but other members favored four, five or six banks. It was argued that New York, Chicago and St. Louis. the present central reserve cities would need regional institutions and New Orleans and San Francisco were mentioned as possible locations.
 The committee has temporarily abandoned all efforts to dispose of the central bank plan on which the committee stands six to six. The mem bers will proceed to develop both the regional and the central bank plans so tar as possible along parallel lines until each is perfected so far as the committee can agree Then the vote will be taken on the two plans.

By mutual agreement Of George Hageman and A. B.

In order to make the deal, Penfield returned to Phoenix last week from his office in Los Angeles.
 Tt is better to handle car of the Oalllands class exclusively" said Penfield last night. For that reason which Mir Hageman and myself have found, l am going to help place the agency with someone who will deal in the one line. The Oakland is an easy car to sell, but like all good things it takes a great deal of time. And as MT.

SCHOOL BONDS
 ARE APPROVED
Proposition Carries by a Two to One Vote and $2OO, O,OO0 Will Soon Be Available for Erection of Needed Buildings

By a vote of more than two to one, the taxpayers of School District No. l, embracing all of the city of Phoenix, yesterday approved the is sGance of bonds amounting to $20O,- coo, to provide funds for the erection Of d new grammar school in the east end of town and four or more ward buildings in those sections of the city where the present facilities are far from adequate The problem which has been confronting the school board for sometime is solved by yesterdays vote. and it is believed that for two years at least, dating from the open ing of the buildings which will be erected as speedily as possible. there will be ample accommodations for the school children of Phoenix
 In all 172 votes were cast yesterday between 9 o'clock and o'clock. the hours during which the polls were open in the Central school, of these l16 favored the proposition. 54 were in opposition to the bonds and two were blank. Considering the nature ol the election, and the requirements for voting, the school board feels that it is q fair expI ession of the will of the people of Phoenix In cidentally il is also believed that some misapprehension existed. involv- ing the question of the disposal of the Central school property which prompted many of the 54 to oppose the bonds believing that by doing so l they Were also favOring the immed- fate sale of the Central school site.
 Next Saturday the school board will meet and canvass the vote and will then report to the board of supervi- sors. The. work of bringing about a sale of the bonds which bear inter est at five per cent and are for twenty years. will then be pressed vigorously so that the money to be derived therefrom may be made avail able at the earliest possible mom- ent.
 While the school district now owns a large plot of ground at Seventh and Van Buren streets. which is considered by many as most desir- able for the erection of the proposed grammar school. there is some sen timent favOring the securing of some ] other site located little further 1 north and to make use of the Van 1 Buren street site for one of the ward schools. This. however, is mattes l that the school board will decide in l the near future. having awaited the 1 outcome of the bond election before
 taking steps definitely settling that 1 question.
 II is altogether likely that when l the buildings which the $2OO,O0O will
 cree, are completed the Centra
 school building vii be abandoned as
 a school building, and the property l leased for term of years, thereby retaining ownership while derivins
 revenue which can be used to advan- | tage in the erection of other build ings. It may be, however, that by
 that time the city and county vii have decided to abandon the sites o
 the present city hall and county buildings, acquire the Central schoO
 site and jointly erect new ant
 modern court house. jail and city
 hall combined.

BEEF
 TO SAN DIEGO
Ten Carloads Comprising 300 Head of Steers Go to Coast Market, Bringing $6.75 Per Hundre q Pound Pounds on HOOf

Ten carloads of cattle comprising about 300 head of the best Salt River valley fattened beef went out of Phoe- nix yesterday over the Santa Fe son signed to the market in san Diego While it was not an exceptionally large shipment, the class of steers which made up the 800 was such that atten- ton is certain to be directed to this section as producer of the best beef in the country.
 While the shipment of winter fed cattle has really only about commenced from Phoenix the beef is bringing the best price at this time of any period in recent history. The cattle sent to the coast yesterday is said to have brought SC 75 per hundred weight on hoOf.
 Los Angeles is looking to Phoenix for good portion of her beef supply and trips are made here frequently by commission merchants of that city who have come to know that the Salt River valley furnishes the best and most cer- tain feeding ground in the southwest When other sections are suffering from lack of water or the grass has been withered by frosts. the Salt River val ley is depended upon to fatten thOus- ands of marketable steers
 Pat Hurley yesterday shipped a car load of cattle to Jerome and John Dick insOn. who conducts meat market at Ash Fork is preparing to ship a car load of Salt River cattle to his town for beef
 Out at Glendale. about 500 cattle are being fattened upon the pulp from su- gar beets and these will be ready for the market about any time that an of fer is made for the stock which meets with the approval of the owners. The pulp coupled with some alfalfa is said to more speedily place the cattle in shape and at little or no expense than any other methods known locally.
