TWO SPECIAL HEARINGS
 BEFORE TAX COMMISSION
Espee Railway and Arizona Copper
 Company Want to Make Kick.

There will be special hearings be- fore the state tax commission today, when the Southern Pacific Railway will appear to complain of the assessed valuation on certain city lots in the town Of Nogales from which the com pany is getting no income, and which are not used in the operation or con- dust of the railroad business of the company.
 The Arizona Copper company will also appear on a grievance concerning the valuation on copper. The company claims that the assessment should have been based upon the value of Besse- mer pig copper rather than upon cop per mat, which would make quite a difference to the amount.
 The complaint of the Pullman com pany relative to the gross income as sessment made against the company, and the request for a lesser valuation was denied

DELIGHTFUL OUTING
 OF TWO MONTHS
Return Yesterday of MT. and Mrs
 Franklin D. Lane.

Mir and Mrs. F. D. Lane returned yesterday morning from their vacation in the east. About two months ago, MT Lane joined Mrs. Lane and daugh- ter who had gone earlier in New York where they spent the greater part of their vacation. They took motoring trips to different points in the state and spent a short time among the islands off the Maine coast in the vii cinity of Portland. But at that time though the rest of the country was pretty warm, the temperature was too low for ArizOnians so that MT and Mrs. Lane hurriedly sought the cozy warmth of New York again.
 The outing has given MT Lane a ruddy glow and some weight and has fitted him for a strenuous period in the real estate business such as the coming season promises to be

LUNATICS ESCAPE FROM
 STATE INSANE HOSPITAL
Three Are Rounded Up By Midnight
 With Others StA at Large

By forcefuIly tearing the iron bars which were supposed to hold them safe, out of the windows, four luna ties in the state asylum made an escape this morning at about one o'clock They forced the bars from tPeir fastenings and tore them clear of the cills, leaving it seems with the utmost ease a place that was sup posed to be break proof.
 Toward two in the morning Depu- ties Perry and Fitch, while making the rounds of the railroad yards, came on two of the men there. They at once attempted to take the men into their custody but the lunatics wanted to put up a fight and they so successfully attempted to fight that it was with extreme difficulty that the officers finally landed the men in the city jail.
 A little later one of the city police force came on another of the men on the streets of the city, and took him to the same receptacle as already held the other two.
 The two men taken by Perry and Fitch were a big husky negro and man sent to the asylum from Florence when he showed signs of insanity while being held in the penitentiary.
 All three were loaded into the county machine and taken at once to the asylum, while a drag was put out for the remaining missing lunatic.

Dr. H. V. Jackson. formerly of Dur ango, Mexico, the foremost living au- thorltY upon the poisonous scorpion that infests many districts of Mex ico, former president of the Interna- tional Medical association one of the best known railway surgeons of the southern republic, accompanied by his family. is registered at the Commer- cial hotel spending a few days in the city looking into their business interests here. Dr Jackson and his family are practically refugees from the sister republic, having taken President Wilson's advice and left
 the country until the dove of peace can find a convenient roOst some where within it's troubled borders In leaving Durango the doctor and his family have left large property interests, among which is a four thousand acre ranch a few miles from the once large and prosperous city of Durango. They are now striving to save something out of the wreck age while with smiling cheerful faces
 they start anew. pr. Jackson has chosen Las Cruces. N. NJ, as the place where he desires to practice. In speaking of the upheaVal the doctor said, yesterday:
 One side is about as bad as the other; there is little to choose be- | tween. If the revOlutionists get into a town and sack it, and then leave, l the federals are likely to come next and manhandle the leavings. Both sides sack and raise. and raise and sack, until the whole country is in 1 a perfect turmoil. Property is worth nothing unless it can be used, and 1 life is not safe.
 Millions of dollars worth of prop 1 erty right in Durango has been ruth i Iessly destroyed by one side or the other Magnificent buildings have l first been sacked and then burned.
 The streets are desolate and the weird shells of buildings do not add any thing to the scene in the way
 of attractiveness. assure you.''
 | As was stated before pr. Jackson
 is the foremost living authority upon the poisonous alacranes, the scorpion 1 which kills off more people in cer- l tain districts of Mexico than does 1 tuberculosis. The death rate is one 1 in a thousand. For years Dr. Jack
 son worked upon an antitoXin to l counteract the effect of the insects 1 sting and succeeded largely therein
 1 So interesting and authoritative, how 1 ever have been his writings upon the
 subject that they have been trans
 lated into Chinese, and they have
 l been largely circulated in French
 Tonkin where a nearly similar con- ditiOn prevails.
 It is understood that there are some of these insects in the neigh 1 borhood of Florence but not very many, and not anything like so dead lIv as the Durango insect. Dr. Jack son will visit Florence today. He knows this country very well having l been here in the early days. He married an Arizona, girl, Miss Ouri i the daughter of the delegate from 1 Arizona to the confederate congress.

DELAY NEW EXPRESS RATES |
Wisconsin Rate Commission Order
Due March ! Held Up Awaiting
inters ate Board Decision.

Madison. Owing to the fact that
the express rate decision OF the inter-
state commerce commission has been
delayed fifteen days. the decision of
the Wisconsin railroad commission
affecting express rates in the state
has also been delayed the same pc
Rod. The decision of the interstate
commerce commission was to have
consin commission had its order
ready to issue the same day. The
reason given for having both orders
go into effect the same time Is to OBJ
viate any legal complications that
might arise over n difference in rates.
The basis for this opinion is the fact
that recent Minnesota decision
would indicate that rates materially
different from inter5tate commerce
rates cannot be sustained
Anticipating that there might be
a delay in announcing the decision
and in response to the pressing de-
mand for lowering of the freight
rates Of the state, Assemblyman
Hurlbut of Winnebago county has in
troduced bill for q 20 per cent re-
duction of the rates in effect in 1909.
He claims thas this reduction is
equal to 80 per cent reduction Of
the present rates.

Mcconnell, for joint fishing laws for
the waters lying between Minnesota
and Wisconsin, was accepted by the
Wisconsin assembly at Madison,
when resolution was passed pro-
yiding for the appoin tment of com
mission to deal especially with that
matter
Fishing laws OF the two states
have been in conflict heretofore and
with the boundary in Lake Pepin in
dispute, the situation has frequently
become extremely exasperatiug to the
authorities and sportsmen of both
states.
Under the present laws. fishermen
of each state must pay license to
fish in the other and the moving of
boat a few feet has often resulted
in the careless fisherman being hailed
into court in one state or the other
and fined heavily for failure to take
out a license.

100000 FIRE AT WAUKESHA
New Randall Store Quilted as Result

Loss Threatened by Flames.

Waukesha Fire originating in
the new store of j. X. Randall and
Son, Quilted the building. and for
some time, threatened to wipe out a
large residence and business section
of the city. The fact that the Y. NJ.
c. A. building, brick structure ad-
joining, served az a barrier to the
flames in reaching several frame
buildings, was largely responsible for
the prevention of a much heavier
loss
An explosion followed an attempt
to heat can of turpentine on a stove
and in a short time the interior was
a roaring furnace. The Office and
operating force of the telephone COM
pany across the street were obliged
to leave their positions after the heat
had caused the windows to break and
telephone service was suspended for
some time. The loss will be about
$4,000.

RISK COMPANIES
TO CONTROL RATE
RECOMMENDATION is MADE BY
LEGISLATIVE INVESTIGATE
ING COMMITTEE.
TAKES POWER FROM AGENTS
Companies Would Be Compelled to
Cooperate for Uniformity OF Rates
Period cal Inspection OF Buildings
to Cause Reduction in Fire Losses.

Madison The report of the Wis

vestfgating committee has been hled
with the governor. If the recommen-
dations it makes are carried INTO Ell
feet the insurance companies Will be
made directly responsible Tor the
rates which they charge for fire in

that the companies WA be required
to cooperate through one or more
bureaus in the making OF rates, which
will be subject to review on appeal.
A radical reduction of fire losses
is to be sought through periodical
inspection of all buildings in cities
and villages, except dwellings,. Such
inspections are to be made every slN
months and every three months
within the fire limits. BY OF under the
chiefs of the fire departments, and
the fire department dues paid by the
insurance companies will be with
held from fire departments which
the state fire marshal finds have not
made the inspections.
