MAN IN FLIGHT
LOSES HIS LIFE
Deputy Sheriff in Merry
Flight Kills Man Who Had
Escaped From Pinal
County Jail
DONE AT MARICOPA

In one Of the nerviest exhibitions
seen III Arizona in a number of years
Deputy Sheriff Powers of Maricopa
station, Pinal county on Monday night.
single handed and alone. engaged in
a desperate fight with ]. c. Miller
and Jack Williams, two men who es-
capped from the Florence jail early in
the day, the result of which is that
Miller is now dead. Williams back
in custody and Powers unhurt The
fght occurred a few miles north Of
Maricopa station shortly before mid
night.
Miller and Williams escaping from
the Florence Jail where they were
serving sentence for having broken
into box car at Maricopa, early n
December. made their way 10 Tempe.
il is thought on the Winkelman train.
Arriving at Tempe. they stole hand
car and started for Maricopa. Their
possible whereabouts we're conject-
ured when the section foreman al
Hanson junction notified the Phoenix
Officers that two men on a hand car
passed bin, going rapidly south. Sus-
pecting these two men Of being the
two desperados. Deputy Sheriff Pow
ers at Marieopa, was immediately not

company, the courageous deputy sad
died his horse, grabbed his gun and
started north at half past ten. Moth
ing more was heard of him for sew
eral hours and much apprehension
vas felt for his safety because OF
the known ability of the desperadoes
in the use of fire arms When they
had about decided TO 20 to Powers
assistance, he arrived at Maricopa
with Williams in tow. The two told
story Of the successful attempt Of
the deputy 20 halt the speeding hand
car. OF the fight in the night. the
killing OF Miller and the SUBSEQUENT
surrender of William. a few miles
out OF Maricopa on the MarTcopa-
Phoenix line.
The dead man and his companion
were heavily armed and had shortly
prior TO leaving the Tempe vicinity
burglarized a house about FIVE miles
east OF that place. Some OF the
iewelry obtained thus was found on
both men
II IL a coincidence that DEPUTY
Sheriff Powers was the officer who
arrested the men in December for
breaking into a-box car for which
crime they were incaseeratod in 1he
Florence county jail.

DOUGLAS RUNOR
IS R. R. STORY
Talk About Extending Mace
zari Line South from Naco-
zari and Espee from
Bowie into Mexico
GOOD NEWS IF TRUE

The news, now generally accepted
IN Douglas as being true, that the
Nacozari railroad viii begin. shortly
after the first OF the year. to change
rs tracks from Purica station into
Nacozari, has given rise tc a strong
ly defined Tumor that this is merely
preliminary to a greater extension OF
ne line, the purported plan being 10
80 100 miles further south TO reach
Inc Promontorio mine owned by the
Phelps Dodge interests and at pres
cnt being developed in a small way
SAYS the Douglas Dispatch
The line between a point near Pu.
rica and Nacozari viii be worked
over shortly. Teams have already
been engaged and the grading OUT
TITS prepared 10 so TO work. it is stat.
ed. The new line viii eliminate the
heavy grade into Nacozari but viii
REQUIRE much work to build. CHIEF
among the difficulties TO be bridged
only with time are two rock tunnels
one 800 and the other 300 feet in
length. The heavy work will begin
near the old headquarters OF the
Wheeler Land company, known as
The Castle
That the Nacozari road would
sooner or later be built on to the Pro
montorio has long been practically
a foregCne conclusion The mine il
self is now admitted to be an enof-
nous reaching II there will be no en-
countered. The new tracksge would
not serve the Promontorio alone Il
would give outlet and transportation
facilities to the Gueriguito, Trans
wal LampoZis. Washington and
Minneapolis properties. as well as to
and many others on the east side OF
the line
Southern Pacific Plans
To add 70 the cup OF JOY comes the
weH defined rumor that the South
ern Pacific is planning to project its
line from Bowie south 20 Douglas and
beyond Unlike most reports, this
says nothing about the right or way
into Nacozari A different route is
chosen. The line from here would
follow the course OF the Bavispe riY-
er, going to Colonia MoreIos This
would tap the rich FL Tigre mime
and a wonderful rich agricultural dis
t-ict. A little further south and e
Temblor. the Cinco de Mayo. at the
Roy and several other properties
would add themselves to the revenue
producers along the line. The line
v ould then follow the natural water
courses south to Toniehi.
Il Is pointed out that this is Athe
logical move for the S. p It will
eastern Sonora It's ouly possible
rival would be the Pearson line
which if built. would go still further
east and thus not prove so serious a
rival after all.

bottom we dig tho heaved portion

the high bank settles again, causing
another hump in the same locality.
After time. however. tho weight of
the broken portion OF tho bank Is 80

look for nli such breaks and slides
to disappear gradually. Thoy will
stop as soon as tho earth has accom-
moduted itself to tho changes in

How long do you think they will

There will probably be slides un-

1T would seem so to me- The UNI

that tho construction of n sea-leycl

Had you known the possibility OF

That was the famous Cucaracha slide.

carried down a mass of moving ma
terial OF several million cubic yards"
The Danger to ships.
is there any possibility OF one OF
those slides dropping down on q steam
er in transit and swallowing 1t up?"
II think not" replied Colonel Gail
lard. THE slide would have to move
far more rapidly than any we have
had to fall upon steamer in tran
sit. The only way that ship could
be affected would be by one of the
breaks, where the material in the bot
tom Of the canal might rise up and
the ship go aground You remember
the hump that occurred when We were
together in the canal. Had that taken
place when a steamer was passing over
the place she might have gone aground
II her Keel had been within six feet
which the slides proper come down into
the canal. We have not yet had a man
killed by any of them. So you see
they do not so very fast. Indeed, we
do not look for any danger as 10
slides and breaks. more than tenn
porary blocking of the channel, and
that may not occur"
Rock Which Flows Like Moinsscs
Tell me something about the
breaks"
Tho breaks are caused in every
case by the crushing of weaker
underlying layer OF rock through the
enormous pressure Of the high bank
on the sido Of the canal above It, If
this weak layer runs across under tho
canal at few feet below the level
of the bottom, the material is forced
latcrally toward the centre OF the
canal and is heaved up through the
bed If it is above the bottom level
1T may DO squeezed out from the sides
or walls of the canal. 1t Is Just as
though you had some jelly in layer
cake. II you press on the cake the
jelly VIII oozc. Now. the pressure is
so great upon these weaker layers OF
rock thar they ooze out, as 1t were or
are forced up into the bed OF the
canal"
But how does that conner" l asked
1T is caused by the disturbance of
the equilibrium of the earth's strata
by the digging OF the canal. AS long
as the strata lay one upon another
the weight of the mass was equally
distributed bed upon bed. SO that it
was not possible for any of the strata
to move. When the great ditch was
cut. and the material taken out. tho
lateral pressure which held the weaker
strata in place was taken away and
the great weight above squeezed the
weaker materials far below out into
the canal I might explain il more
scientifically. but that is n rough.

occur
