RAILROADS ID DIVIDE
 COST WITH COUNTIES
Matter of Grade Crossings Handled
 By Corporation Commission.

In an order concerning the question of railroad grade crossings in towns cities or counties, the corporation commission yesterday handed down an order dividing the cost of instaIla- tion and maintenance between the railroads and the political subdivi- sion. The question came up over the application made some time since by the Board of Supervisors of Santa Cruz county for a crossing over the Southern Pacific Railway
 The application was made in thu first place on the ground that the crossing is a public necessity. A hearing was held upon the proposi- ton and it was discovered that it was one upon which no general discussion had been held nor had there been any general order issued
 Since the question of grade cross ings is likely to come up at any time, especially with the growth in population of the state, it was de- cided that a general proposition would have to be laid down. The opinion of the commission in this case to the effect that equity demanded that the cost of installation should be divided between the municipality and the railroad. The approach and the grade up to within two feet of the crossing must be made by the county and the rest provided by the railroad.

BUTCHERS RELEASED
 ON OWN RECOGNIzANCE
Seven Appear Before Judge Johnstone
 and Arrange for Trial.

Seven butchers appeared before Justice Johnstone yesterday morning in answer to the complaints sworn to by state inspector of weights and measures c. N. CressWel and their appearance was noted by the court. The men were released on their own recognizance to appear again on Fri day morning for the trial of the case.
 The butchers were arrested as result of their being caught by the state inspector and City Sealer Mea
 ley selling meat contrary to the law. The Jaw in this case providing that each separate package must have made on it before the eyes of the customer by the meat cutter state ment of the sale, telling how much the meat weighs, what the price is per pound, and what the total amount due on the purchase amounts to.
 It is understood that the butchers of Phoenix will fight the case to the bitter end. They claim the law is unreasonable, unfair, and will result in great additional cost to the butch CTS and consumers to comply with it. The weights and measures law was passed at the first session of the legislature, and amended at the more recent sessions. It was one of the pet measures of Senator John T. Hughes of Pima county, who was the pure food advo ate in the Senate.

POURING OF CONCRETE MARKS PROGRESS
 ON THE HANDSOME NEW KORR|CK BLOCK

whose gaze this picture falls.
 It is less than two months ago that the Arizona Engineering and Construction Company of Mesa tore down the old structures that for many years stood upon the site of the pro- posed building and began the eXca- vations It was a long, tedious task, for an excavation of the size of that necessary for the proposed building was no child's job under any cir cumstances and when conducted in the heart of the business district of q busy city the difficulty was practi- cally doubled.
 But now the work is well in hand and from this time on the work of construction can be rushed with little or no inconvenience either to the contractors on the one hand or to the general public on the other.
 The latest plans for the building call for as handsome and substantial a building as money can produce
Arizona republican., 1913-11-25

The principal changes in the plans were made with relation to the eX- terior. it having been decided that no changes for betterment of the i'm terior were possible A description of the interior would be but repeating that which has already been men tioned several times in the Repub Lcan.
 Announcement was made yesterday by Superintendent of Construction Bone that he will have the roof on the building some time between Janu ary 15 and February The interior finish will occupy several months thereafter. A most modern heating and cooling system is planned for the structure and the lighting, both interior and exterior will be in ad vance of anything yet seen in tine southwest. Taken all in all the new Korrick building promises to be all that has been said of it and whole lot more

PHOENIX SAVINGS BANK
 MAKES |MPROVEMEN MS

Among the stable business institu- tions of Phoenix none has recently made more extensive improvements and alterations to it's place of busf- ness than the Phoenix Savings Bank and Trust Company. Since the doors of the institution were opened on January l, 1911, the increasing busi- ness has necessitated enlargement three times.
 The most recent improvem ents now nearing completion are on a more elaborate scale than anything at tempted yet. The offices of the officers and directors are being en- larged by the removal of partitions, the walls are being redecorated and a mosaic floor is being laid.
 In the Savings Department the va riOus windows are being moved back in the lobby and the office of the secretary and treasurer are to be ar ranged in the front of the building. The assistant secretary and treasurer will have offices to the left of the lobby and the insurance department will also be located there in space sufficient to care for the large num- Der of customers that frequent the department which has been prepared especially for the public and in ap- pointment will be one of the most modern to be found in any banking institution.
 At the end of the lobby will be the department for the trust officers, where all collections and savings busi- ness relative to the handling of es- tates and property placed in the care of the bank will be handled Adjoin- ing will be the StenOgraphic depart ment
 The savings department will be di- rectly in front of the heavy vault door and the insurance department and the offices of the manager and his assistant have been so arranged that they will be accessible to the public.
 A feature of the improvements will be the large lobby. Aside from it's mosaic floors, mahogany trimmings, prism glass and decorated walls, there will be on either side large uphol- stered benches for the accommodation of the patrons of the bank.
 Leading from the main offices of the officials and directors will be private offices and each of these, to- gether with the main offices, will be fitted up with the latest office equip ment, and the finishing of these rooms will correspond with the general deco rative scheme of the lobby.

At the northeast corner of First and Washington streets huge con crete mixers yesterday began dis charging their loads of cement, sand and gravel into the forms erected to outline the great pillars upon which will one day rest the floors of the new Korrick building, the future home of the New York store. Judg- ing alone from the size of these embryo columns a faint idea is to be gained of the magnitude of the build ing that in the near future will grace this busy business center and will long stand as one of the greatest structures in the southwest.
 Herewith the Republican presents the first authentic picture of the Korric1 building as it will appear when completed. That it will be a credit to one of the most progressive concerns in the most progressive city in the entire southwest must be the conclusion of every person under

PASTOR ARRIVES WHEN
 CHURCH IS R[OPEAEO

With the arrival in Phoenix of the Rev. Claude C. Jones, the new pastor of the Christian church, the congre- gatiOn on Sunday celebrated two i'm pOrtant events, the first being that of greeting for the first time the man who came from Jacksonville, Fla to minister to them, and the reopening of the reconstructed church, an edi- flee that today ranks among the finest of the smaller church build ings in the southwest. So complete have been the changes and innova- tions the regular Worshipers in the church would hardly recognize in the building that has for years stood at Fifth avenue and Monroe street
 The principal change is the addi- tion of wing at the south end of the building, giving space for twelve new classrooms and increasing the size of the. Sunday school audito- rum. The ceiling of the main struc- ture was lowered considera bly, thereby making it possible to introduce a new truss system increasing the strength of the roof. The lighting system was also overhauled until the structure is now one of the best illuminated in the city.
 On Sunday morning Rev. Jones preached the first sermon in the re- constructed edifice His sermon was more in the nature of an informal talk to the members of his new con gregation, a sort of get-acqua inted address. In the evening he again spoke, after having accepted an in vitation to address the pupils of the United States Indian school. Yester- day he officiated at the funeral of Mrs. Lillian A. McDaneld, held from the undertaking parlors of Moore & Mcclellan, with burial in Greenwood
 In the few days that Rev. Jones has been in Phoenix he has won a warm place in the hearts of his new congregation and his coming promises a religious awakening and renewed activity in the Christian church.
