BRIEF FILED
 BY EXCHANGE
Stock Market Governors Deny the Right of the Government to lncorpOr- ate It or to Attempt to Regulate It's Affairs.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcHl

WASHINGTON. Jan. 26-A brief has been submitted to the money trust committee by the New York stock ex- change denying the right of the gov ernment to incorporate it or to regulate it's affairs
 The brief admits the state had the power to enact laws for the guidance of the exchange, though the belief is expressed tat no law of either the state or the nation will stop certain transac- tions
 It further asserted that members of the stock exchange are better able to control its affairs than anw legislative authority.
 Defending the rules of the stock ex- change, the brief declares it is believed that it is neither interstate nor for eign in it's character nor do its opera tions in any respect come within the sphere of federal jurisdiction"
 The rates on the exchange, brief de- clares reports of which are said to be exaggerated by the general public have passed manipulation and the spirit oi selling in general is the gambling. The answer to all the charges against the exchange is said to lie in the state ment that all transactions are matters between customer and broker witt which the exchange has nothing to dC so long the highest standards of busi ness Onesty are maintained.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26-Cross pur- poses of the leaders of the rank and file of the workers and employers complicated the conditions of the walters strike tonight The leaders declared that modified demands ac- ceptable to the proprietors would be presented and an agreement reached under which most of the strikers would speedily return to work
 Many of the strikers announced their intention of remaining out until a complete victory had been won. while many of the managers of the larger hotels asserted they would not employ the old walters, preferring tn depend on non-union help in the future.
 Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, a leader in the strike, tonight said the strike would be over in forty eight, hours. The right of special policemen to patrol the sidewalks in front of hotels was upheld today by the court, when tw enty special officers arrested by the police last night on orders Of Commissioner Waldo were released.

Appalling Conditions.

VIENNA. Jan. 26-The first real in- sight into the awful losses sustained bv the Bulgarians, the conditions un- der which their wounded were cared for and the present state of the chole- ra epidemic is given by the Austrian Red Cross surgeons who have just re- turned from the battlefields and Con- stantinople.
 Professor Clairmont, who accompan- jed the unit sent to Bulgaria, declares that the Bulgarian losses before the Chatalia lines were very great. no less than 10000 falling in one day. Ac- cording to some of the other doctors the transport arrangements for the wounded were appallingly inadequate.
 The Austrian unit stationed near Kirk Kilisse where the most severe ca ses were treated, had on some days over a hundred operations, averaging a half hour each. The work was carried on under great difficulties, often with insufficient food. The surgeons and nursing sisters underwent great hard ships on the journey to Kirk Kilisse, and on arriving there spent the first five nights in the open air and with O1liN tea anu DItdu Ol NO oOO sist

BUREAU SOCIAL HYGIENE WEARS
 END 0F INQUIRY
Two Years of Labor Brings Out Announcement from John D. Rockefeller, Jr.. Who Says 2000 Personal Histories Are Secured.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

NEW YORK. Jan. 26- An ela- borate investigation of the social evil in New York undertaken two years ago by the Bureau of Social Hygiene is nearly completed, and it's results win be announced in December ac- Cording to the statement tonight of John D. Rockefeller. Jr e In~ addition to a survey of the conditions of the disorderly resorts, the corps of work . CTS obtained the personal histories of 2,O00 women of the underworld
 Tn his statement Mr Rockefeller says:
 The Bureau of Social Hygiene came into existence about two years ago, as a result of the work of the special grand jury appointed to in vestigate the white slave traffic in New York City, which served during the first half of the year 1910. One of the recommendations made by it in the presentment handed up al the termination of it's labors was that a public commission be appointed to study the social evil The foreman of that body subsequently, gave care full consideration to the character of the work which might properly be done by such a commission and the limitations under which it would operate. In this connection, separate. personal conferences were held with over hundred leading men and women in the city, among whom were lawyers, physicians, business men, bank presidents of commercial or ganizations. clergymen, settlement workers social workers, labor lead CTS, and reformers. These conferences developed the feeling that public commission would labor under a num- Der of disadvantages. such as the fact | that it would be short lived; that it's work would be done publicly; that | at best it could hardly do more than present recommendations. The con- Viction also grew that the main reason why more permanent results had not been obtained by the various organ | izations which had dealt with the subject of the social evil during the past ten or fifteen years was that most of them were temporary While active, they materially improved the
 situation, but as their efforts were
 relaxed, there came the inevitable re- turn to much the same conditions as before The forces of evil are never greatly alarmed at the organization
 of investigating or reform bodies, fol
 they know that they are generally
 composed of busy people, who cannot turn aside from their own affairs fol any great length of time to carry on reforms and that sooner or latel (Continued on Page Seven)

Counterpart Structure to be Erected Which Will Make Building Largest of It's Kind in State of Arizona.
WILL COST
 ABOUT $85,OOO
Work Will Be Commenced As Soon As Tenant Is Found Who Will Take Long Lease and State Needs of His Business.

That an $S5, 900 addition to the Flem- ing block, a the northwest corner of First avenue and Washington street is about to be erected and that the plans for the proposed structure which will make of the building the largest office structure in Phoenix, was the announcement made by A. G. Hubbard, of Pasadena, owner of the Fleming block upon the occasion of his visit to Phoenix last week. The only thing, so it is stated. which is delaying the inn mediate beginning of construction, is that a tenant is being sought for the first floor of the new structure, who will agree to execute longtime lease. Tn the event such a tenant is secured. the entire lower floor of the addition will be constructed to suit his needs
 Armed with the practically complet- ed plans for the proposed addition and with the estimate of a Pasadena con tractor his pocket, the real object of the visit of Mir. Hubbard to Phoenix last week was to see whether or not the desired tenant can be found. It is desired that before construction is ac- tually undertaken. the future occupant of the first floor of the building may be known so that when he finally moves in it will be found just suited to his requirements.
 It is stated that the plans for the proposed addition call for a structure exactly conformink with the present four story building It will be of brick
 
 so IS to be absolutely fireproof and will occupy the site of the present one story structure standing upon the fifty feet just west of the present structure. While it was not announced positive ly, it is understood that the work will be placed in the hands of Contracting Architect Taylor of Pasadena. who has been figuring on the plans for some time. While the building will be one with that now standing and have ev- cry appearance of having been son. structed at the same time it is prob able that a Washington street entrance will be constructed giving access to the upper floors of the entire building pat terner after that now used on the First avenue side.
 The Fleming block today is one of the most substantial office buildings in Phoenix, housing besides many oft ces of lawyers. the Phoenix National Bank, the Phoenix Savings Bank & Trust company and the Phoenix Title and Trust company. With the compile ton of the proposed addition it would be the largest office building in Phoe- nix if net in Arizona

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26.-D. O.. Lively, chief of the department of stock of the exposition. while in the east attended more than fifty annual meetings of organizations connected with the live stock industry and in speaking about the result of his trip said:
 T feel safe in saving that the result of my trip will mean not less than $2OO0O in supplemental premiums for live stock that will be exhibited in San Francisco in 1915.
 "A number of states that will be represented at San Francisco will offer special prizes for live stock. There is an abundant precedent for such action as this was done both at Chicago and St. Louis.
 When it is considered that the exposition company has set aside $175,0 900 for premiums at the live stock show here in 1915, and that appropriations by live stock organiza- tions and by states will more than double that amount, and that there is included dairy cattle, beef cattle, horses of all classes, sheep, goats, swine, poultry, pet stock, dogs and cats, it is not unreasonable to expect a. large increase in the gate receipts incident to the live stockA- show
 Correspondence with Central and Southern American republics. with Australia and the countries of the Orient indicate an active interest in the live stock department. While in Washington I asked the department of agriculture to consider the ques- tion of immunizing cattle that will be sold for use in the South American countries. This and other important phases of my department will receive due consideration.
