You will Soon See
the Paper Money

Washington, Feb. 25.-Designs for
new paper money, to be issued under
the currency act. have been prepared
by experts Of the bureau of engraving
and printing for submission to John
SHELTON Williams.
This money may not be needed for
months, but Director Ralph will have
the designs ready within a few days,
and as soon as Mr.. Williams has Sc
cured the approval OF Secretary Nc
Adoo places will be made and a few
millions will be printed.
There will be three kinds OF new
currency-one for emergency pur.
poses, succeeding the present but new
er used emergency currency; M fol-
federal reserye banks issued against
United States bonds, with the circula,
ton privilege, and the third one-yeaI
gold notes, to be issued to reserve
banks against United States bonds
but not to have circulation privilege.
These designs contemplate the pres
ent size of paper money, although the
plan of the Taft administration for
smaller bills may be reflected in flu
ture issues.
The law authorizes notes Of SIS, $40,
$40, $50 and 800. Present designs
would have the five dollar note beat
the portrait of Lincoln, the ten dollar
note that Of Cleveland, the twenty
dollar note that of Jefferson and the
fifty dollar note that Of Grant.
Varied phases Of human activity are
depicted on the backs Of the notes
AS provided by law, currency issued
to particular reserve banks will bear
serial numbers a distinguishing
marks.

SINGING DEFEAT IS
INFLICTED BY
GLOBULARS
Lose First Game to Clifton a to g.
But Take Both Sunday Games b,
8 to Score.

Globes bunch of ball swatters blew
into town for the week end and
showed the fans some pretty classy
ball playing in the three games.
Clifton was the host in Saturday and
Sunday afternoon games, and Morenci
entertained in the Sunday morning
fracas Clifton got away with the
first affair, nosing Globe out in the
ninth with couple of bingles, win
ming by close decision, to 3. Nc
Tween assumed the leading role
with the big Westerwick as the op-
position, and both Southpaws worked
we'll with good support, but Macs
crew hit bit timelier than the
Globe outfit and got the verdict
Globe came back Sunday with q
vengeance and never let up with
their rough stuff until both games
were put on ice by the same count
IS to 2.
And right here let me sa,y these
huskies sure did pickle that ball,
clouting out no less than twenty one
safe drives in the two games, twelve
in the a. m. and nine in the final
act; among the assortment being
seven two base blows, and one cir
cult drive into the tailings pond.
Matinee 1o:3o A. M.
Morenci came down without pitcher
Stevens, and called on Bob Scanlon to
do the sharpshooting with Brock re-
ceiving. while Globe sent in Johnson
and Watson to do the heavy work.
The first inning passed quietly, but
Globe broke the calm in the second
after two were out when Watson
cracked single to left and made
the round trip on Nuts double to
right.
| Nothing stirred in the third, but
Globe limbered up the heavy artil-
llery in the fourth. Pinyon, first up
singled to left and was sacrificed to
second by Miller Watson drove a
single thru short and Pinyon scored,
Watson going on down to second on
the throw home Nuts out via
OBrien and Hayes put Watson on
third. Spikes hooked fast one into
the tailings pond for homer. John
son walked but died stealing. Three
hits and three runs
Morenci got their first counter in
the fifth. Heinks led off with a
double to center, and went to third on
Brooks grounder to Miller. Scanlon
hit to center scored Heinks. Porri hit
into a double play; Spikes to Miller
to Pinyon.

WATER COMPANY'S
REQUEST HEARD
BY COMMISSION
Commissioner Geary, of State Corpor-
alton Commission, Listens to State
. ment Containing Requests Made by
Clifton Water company-Decision
Will be Rendered Later.
on SATURDAY.. August 8. State COR

On Saturday, August 8, State Cor
poration Commissioner Geary at
Clifton heard the requests submitted
to his Commission by the Clifton
Water company concerning their de-
sire for improvement to their service
here Geary arrived in Clifton Fri
day, and received the company's re-
quest on the forenoon of Saturday.
He will place the requests before his
brother Commissioners, who with
himself will later render decision
A number of requests were contain
ed in the statement submitted by the
Water. company to the Commission,
but the one of the most Importance
that concerning the Commission allow
ing the company to raise funds, the
interest of which must be assured by
the Commission, for the placing of a
! ten inch water main from the Com
lpany's pumping station few miles
above Clifton to a point near the
East Clifton Frisco bridge, there to
connect with the system of mains al
ready placed. This improvement is to
be made that the service might be
/ benefited.
| 1t is understood that the Arizona
Copper company has agreed with the
Water company that they will con-
tract for a permanent delivery of
water in case the Commission allows
the Water company to place the pro.
posed improvement For this reason
the Water company is anxious to
know the Commissions decision.
The position of the Water company
in the matter is that they be assured
of a fair return from the investment
required for the proposed new main.
Under the state 1aw,any improvement
demanded by the State Corporation
Commission, which guides all public
service corporations in the state,
must be guaranteed by the state in
regard to the affected company or
corporation receiving a fair return
/ from the money expended.

mendation brought with him from
, Tucson. According to M. Foote, he
(; has never shown since beginning en-
ployment, any disposition to speak
with any frankness of himself, his ia
1 variable reply to any questions asked
him concering his work in the office,
these questions put by his super1ors,
or matters occurring in everyday con-
Iversations among his associates, be-
ing why do you ask?" Upon being
seen by a Copper Era representative
at the county jail, Mccormick point
blank and steadfastly refused to make
any statement other than to apparent
Ily interestedly inquire as to the con-
dition of Mr.. Foote, who was slightly
injured by the shot fired by McCorm-
ick. He is only a youth, and one
can easily form the supposition that
he is not at all seasoned in crime, at
least crime of the nature of hold-ups.
He appears as youth who probably
has had evil inclinations strengthen
ed by reading foolish stories of West
ern frontier hold-ups, ETC., and seeing
such scenes shown upon moving pie
ture screens.
He is of good appearance, and is
neat regarding his apparel. His in
tellect would not appear to be at
all below the normal, and his bold at
tempt of Thursday could be attribut-
ed to evil inclinatfons not associated
with any judgment.
He had evidently been for several
days preparing for the attempt of
Thursday, for he had questioned his
associates concerning the distance OF
Clifton from the New Mexico line.
And he on the day before the hold-up
bought at the hardware department of
the A. c.. cOmpany'S store e.3S
calibre revolver of the highest class.
He was not familiar with the mechan-
ism of the gun, and requested his
Hutchins residence to show him how
to operate the weapon.
Mccormick Pleads Guilty.
Early on Friday forenoon McCor-
mick was brought before Judge
Leonard for a preliminary hearing,
and pleaded guilty to the charge OF
robbery. He evidenced a strong de-
sire that his relatives never hear of
his trouble, and to no one has divulg-
ed any information which would lead
to knowledge of their address.
Judge Leonard placed his bond at
81, 900 90, falling to give which he
was placed again in the county prison
to await passing of sentence by
Superior Court Judge F. B. Lame, at
date set by Prosecuting Attorney
Horton y
Prosecuting Attorney Horton states
that Mccormick will be brought before
Judge Laine for hearing, probably
Monday, August IT, should his plea be-
fore the Superior Court still be that
of guilty, he will probably receive
sentence several days later.

tion here will not likely become
worse, with the exception that in
certain instances employees now en-
ployed may be discharged. This i'm
preston is based upon the fact that
the consumption of copper, even con-
sidering that Europe for months will
take none of our output, will yet pc
of considerable amount, as the United
States, South America, and all the
world with the exception of Europe
now engaged in war, will still demand
the metal While of course Europe Is
the largest consumer, still enough
copper will be taken by. other coun-
tries to enable production to, at least
a limited extent, continue. Logically
the position of all copper producers Is
to produce at this time no more OF the
metal than is demanded at present
prices, for should the production be-
come greater than the demand, pr1ces
would fall to perhaps an extent Wn1ch
would make impossible the cent1nu-
ance of operation of the companies
possessing only the lower grades. And
hopes would appear to be well round
ed that England will soon assume ner
supremacy over the sea, and thereby
open her ports, and the ports of all
Europe with the exception of Germany
to the incoming of copper. Upon the
opening of these ports, copper will
undoubtedly be in far greater demand
than at present. OF course the fact
that England, France and Russia are
still at war will lessen their consump-
tion to a large extent, yet the differ
ence as compared with that of the
present will be considerable. Summed
all in all, the situation appears to be
not of the gravest, and gives hope
that in the near future welcome
change in local conditions will be-
gin.

,riees Not Advanced Here


The stores of the A. c. and Shan
non Copper companies announce this
week that the reports which have
been circulated to the effect that the
prices of staple foodstuffs- have been
and will be advanced radically by
the two stores are without foundation,
as the policy of both stores is and
will be to i'm every respect possible
sell merchandise at prices prevailing
before the copper depression occurred,
and that all efforts will be made to
maintain prices at the obtaining
levels. The A. c.. company's store
states that in a number of instances
the prices of staple foodstuffs has
been decreased. Sugar alone of all
the staple groceries has advanced,
and this only about seventy-hve
cents per hundred pounds and in the
face of a market rise of more than
two and one-half dollars per hundred
pounds This store announa es that
its policy will be to keep prices at
the lowest possible levels, regardless
of cost.
