Mayor II. VI. Schriver is in receipt OF
a communication from one William
Fen.more Of Diamond, Mo, in which
the aid Of the Rock Island executive
is sought in conducting a search for
heirs Of David Fenimore, who died in
1911, at his home on his farm in
Oregon. The deceased left an estate
which includes in addition 10 a valu-
able farm, some $4,000 or $50, 900 in
the bank Thus far no heirs have
been located who are sufficiently re-
lated 70 claim the estate and ii will
revert 70 the state unless a claimant
appears soon.
InasmuCh as the deceased went TO
Oregon from Rock Island, the writer
OF the letter hopes TO get trace OF
heirs from this city. David Fenimore,
his widowed mother and a brother

FINANCES AND MARKETS

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-AlI signs pointed to a dull stock market today and traders were accordingly not dis appointed by the complete 5tagnatiOn throughout the session. With a holi- day in London, and one in the home market on Teusday, there was little prospect of much business before the middle of next week.
 At the opening today there was a slight easing off of some of the lead CTS. Among some inactive issues in which the movement was wider, was Mexican petroleum, which lost seven points yesterday, and broke three more to 54, a new low record. It subsequently, rallied strongly. Ameri- can Linseed shares were again prom inent, and common rose one and pre- ferred one and three -eighths. Ameri can Tobacco broke six points.
 The strain on the money market in connection with the turn this month, reflected the bank statement For the first time in almost a year, clearing house banks reported a deficit at the end of the week. The cash loss of $7,330, 900 was much larger than was looked for and at the same time there was an increase of deposits of nearly $20000,000. Bonds were steady. Total sales represented a par value of $76O.0O0. Governments were un- changed

The first of the football series ever tC be played in this state will be pulled off at the ninth state fair. It will mark the invasion of the greatest college and high school sport into Arizona in all it's mightiness and strength and will be the foundation for future contests of a like nature for the yearly decision of the cham pionship of the state.
 The winner of this years contest will receive at the hands of the fair commission a cup, valued highly, for it's distinction as marking the foot ball championship of the state, as well as for it's comemrcial worth. Be- side the cup the winner will have the hcnor of being the first truly tested victor over the productions of all the other worthy schools of the state. Great interest in the contest should be shown by the citizens of the state. IL should reach as high a pitch as the interest bestowed on the games by the cOntesting schools.
 The hours of the contests are early. They were necessarily so since the afternoon hours are all taken up by the other and greater attractions or the fair which are of international rather than of statewide interest. But the hours should not materially detract from the crowds at the games, and the grandstand for the last game will be the biggest that game in this state has ever been staged be- fore.
 The contestants of the games are the tried men of the better schools of the state Bisbee has beaten the bet ter teams of .the southern section; Prescott has met and defeated the teams of the north. and Phoenix and Tucson represent the strength of the central I-southern part of Arizona. The contests will be even in strength, speed and weight, or at least as even as can possibly be expected in such q meet. and since all the teams en- tered have been through the mill to at least a small degree the games will be well above the average.

It looks like big day today.
 Fans and Fannettes will hold their first and ownest game this morning at Grant Park when Yves Ritchie's Phoenicians and Harry Cheeks An gelenos meet in the first contest of a ten game series.
 Why is it the fans own? Because it was the element of baseball in sanity in the average PhOenician that made this series possible and that's why 'tis so named.
 Fast baseball will be the order from the start. For the visiting players are picked from the lead paragraphs of the hitting and field ing stories of the coast and other leagues. Ritchies tried and true youngsters are not so poorly at this here game of baseball.
 Big Hall and Busted Mill Bill Barngrover will twirI the two games today Pep Cook will be the catcher for both.
 The same old infield will operate with it's usual efficiency under the personal and careful direction of it's leader Silent Boss Ritchie.
 In the outfield will be Young Hud- son. Eiselstein and Butler.

 Season Ticket Seats
 The section directly back of home plate will be reserved for holders of season tickets. There are several score of patrons whose advance con tributiOns have been largely respon- sibIe for the series.
 Cheeks lads are named:
 Cheek, Slagle, Crabbe, Los Angeles, pitchers; Goodwin, Los Angeles, third ba e; Flick, Chattanooga, short stop; Rawlings, Victoria, second base; Rei- ger, St. Paul, first base and pitcher; COncannon, Tacoma, pitcher; WateII, Los Angeles, center field; Bassler, Cleveland, right field; Comett, man ager, left field.
