The Department of the Interior
has announced an amendment to its
homestead regulations whereby en-
trymen may be permitted to reduce
the area of land required to be cult
waited. This reduction will be per-
mitted where land is found to be
impracticable of cultivation or good
only for grazing purposes. Personal
disabilities or misfortune after entry
and actual settlement also will b.
deemed sufficient cause to grant re
auctions. No decrease will be per
mitted because of expense in clear

EARLY BEGINNING
 OF YUMA BRIDGE
It Will Be Completed in Time for
 Expositions.

Advices received in the office of the governor yesterday were to the effect that work on the bridge across the Colorado river at Yuma would be commenced as soon as possible. As all acquainted with the case know the chamber of commerce of Los Angeles guaranteed the amount that it was necessary for California to Tut up in order to get this bridge With the guaranty of California and the appropriation of this state and the government, the funding of the proposition is completed Govern ment men on the ground announce that the sooner the work is started the better they will be pleased, and the United States officials assure the Yuma chamber that no delays in building the bridge will be counte- nanced.
 George Micha olson. secretary of the Yuma chamber of commerce, was the most influential man in the securing of the California share of the bridge building money. MT Michaelson re- ports that Yuma is elated at the sue cessful outcome of the plans and that he is looking forward to an early completion of the bridge. at least early enough for the passing of the cars in 1915.

RACE FUND
 GUARANTEED
Board of Trade Will Make Up Balance of Motorcycle Race Fund Purse to Fill Ph0eniX's Share in San Diego Event

The Phoenix Motorcycle clubs share in the purse of the San Diego to Phoenix race is as safe as a clock. With a little over two hun dred dollars in the bank as pro ceeds of the race meet the other day, the club by it's committee went be- fore the directors of the board of trade yesterday afternoon at the re- gular meeting and secured a guar antee of enough more to make up the five hundred, after entry fees are all in.
 The purse of one thousand dollars, to be divided into $500. $500 and $20O for the first, second and third prizes will be the largest ever offer ed in any motorcycle road race. This fact will lift the desert event into the sight of the world as the great est two wheeled undertaking of the world. and will bring inestimable benefit to the Phoenix fair through the advertising it will afford. At least forty entries. twenty-five of them from the San Diego Motor cycle club will start the race. Stock machines alone will be allowed, and the race will be run under the sane tiOn of the Federation of American Motorcyclists.
 Various suggestions were offered at the meeting of the board yester- day concerning the time to run the race. It was originally designed to run on the same day as the Los An geles to Phoenix auto race, but on the suggestion of President Bullard of the Maricopa Auto club, the date has been set forward one day The race starting the morning of Friday, that night. There it will be held in night control The second days rac- ing will be as far as Agua Caliente, occupying all of Saturday. The third day will bring the winners into Phoenix at about noon or one o'clock The finish will be made at either the court house or city hall. so that the thousands of interested spectators can view the machines as they speed down the main street to the line. Speaking of the finish George Lutgerding arguing for the town rather than the fair grounds as the stopping place, said: There need be no fear that there will be no interest in the finish. I never saw such a racing finish as that of the first Republican cup race sev- eral years ago when the streets were packed with people until eleven o'clock to see the winners come in,

The lat ter concern subsequently, turned them over to the Billiard company which was owned by the New Haven road
 Well, then" said Commissioner Anderson, If We authorize the bond issue to cover the floating indebted ness,-which would include the New Ravens holdings in the Billiard com pany, would not our act be in de- fiance of the cDurts?"
 Counsel for the railroad argued it had disposed of it's mass of trolley holdings, "as required by law" to the Billiard company.

I climb cd q telephone near the Repub- lican office and then fought for my place as the crowd grew. Therefore vote for having the race finish at one of the city plazas in order that the people can be kept back giving the racers room to speed"
 Mir Lutgerding's suggestion met the approval of MT. HuIett, MT. Moore and others, and it was passed on to the clubs committed
 Joe O'Connell and J. w Tompkins of the committee made eloquent speeches in explanation of their re- quest. while Craig Pottinger the chairman contented himself with cx- erting a purely moral influence with the directors of the board of trade
 There is some possibility of the club staging another meet at the fair grounds. The committee is awaiting the reply of the fair com mission to a proposition for Sunday racing. and in case the answer is favorable. there will probably he a race within two weeks. The splendid success of the last meet has decided the club to repeat the program.
 Club runs will also receive atten- tion shortly. There is now plan to run a short tour to Granite Reef or some such place nearby for Sunday afternoon. Still another bee in the bonnet of the >cIub is the matter of the club ro~sf

SETTLEMENT REACEfD
 ON WHEAT AND FLOUR
Democratic Tariff Conference Com nittee WithhoIds Result of
 Days Work.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON. Sept 1S-SettIe- ment of the differences between the senate and the house over the pro posed duties on wheat and flour was reached today by democratic mem bers of the tariff conference com mittee. The nature of the agree ment was not made public, but it is understood the house members finally accepted the senate amend ment almost without change
 Under this provision both wheat and flour would go on the free list and duty of ten cents a busheI would be assessed against wheat inn ported from country levying a duty on American wheat, and a duty of forty-five cents a barrel against flour imported under like conditions.
 The house put straight duty of ten cents a bushel on wheat and free listed flour. with a counter vailing duty of ten per cent ad valorem.
 Today's agreement established precedent, which it is understood. will be followed in other cases, in imposing countervailing duties. It is expected the conference will ap- prove cOuntervailing duty of ten per cent on potatoes which both houses put on the free list and countervailing duty on wood pulp put in by the house and later stricken out by the senate, may be adopted.
 Agreement was reached on the meat inspection provision as applied to free meat from abroad, and the section will be written so rigid that the provisions of the American in spection laws will be applied to some of their more important features to imported meats
