Taft, who signed the PanaTa Canal

 With the conclusion of counsels s statement of the case for the de- fense, the court adjourned until Monday.
 The proceedings of the morning were largely confined to altercation between the opposing counsels over disputed points, and many objections were made and many sustained, while exceptions were noted in the record.
 With the conclusion of the states case in chief in the afternoon, Judge Baker asked that an adjournment be taken until Monday in order to give him time to further prepare his case, which, he held, would shorten the time of the. court in the end. Judge Phillips, however, would not allow this, desiring to proceed without de- lay, but allowed a recess of half hour, during which time Judge Baker prepared his statement.

.|RV|N SELLS !. THREE HUDS0NS
Takes Three Days to Globe and Back and Makes a Record of One Car a Day While Away from Home Town

Three cars sold in three days. That is the record oscar Irwin, Phoenix agent for the Hudson, reported last evening upon his return from dem onstration trip to Globe. Two of the cars were sold at Globe, the other to a Phoenix man whom he took along as a passenger. Another of the pas sengers has given his order for a 1915 Hudson day or two before the trip and he went along just to vindi- cate his own judgment.
 On Thursday morning at 11:30 o'clock Irwin started out in his Hudson forty, carrying Fine Fox, c. c.
 Hurley and James McNulty as pas sengers. Hurley has purchased a tour 1 ing car for $1, TOO, the 1915 price, and he wanted to see how a Hudson really stood up under hard usage. Fox
 wanted a machine, but he wasn't cer-
 tain the Hudson was the one for which he was looking. When he came back last evening, bringing his party
 safe and sound after a most enjoyable trip. Oscar Irwin had the coveted or der from Fox in his pocket. Hurley
 and Fox have cars of the same type. 1 Over in Globe Irwin made hay, sell | ing a touring car of the 1915 model to
 c. L. Hollands and a roadster to Cecil
 Adams And Oscar said that business
 wasn't so very good at that. He eX- poets to make delivery within the next two or three weeks.
 The roads were found to be in fairly
 good shape. There had been light
 rain along the Roosevelt road in the vicinity of the dam, but it was not
 much more than enough to nicely lay the dust. The party in going over encountered evidence of a most pecul- jar wreck A Reclamation Stakeholder car had jumped a bridge at sharp turn and had landed squarely on all four wheels in a niche in the creek bottom which seemed to have been made especially to receive the car. The driver had escaped unhurt and the car wasn't injured enough to be worth mentioning It required days work
 and a heav yteam of mules to get the machine out of the creek bottom and back on the road.

NJ FUNDS FOR
 DEPRECIATION
As Far as Rails and Ties Are Concerned, Says As sistant Chief Engineer of Espee in Three-Cent Fare Hearing

No funds are set aside by the Soutn- ern Pacific railway company to pro- vide for depreciation of rails and ties according. to the testimony of J. b. Pope. witness. for the company, WHO was on the stand all daw yesterday at the three-cent fare hearing before the corporation commission. The cost of new rails and ties is charged to oper- ating expenses, and no decrease Tn valuation of tracks from the standpoint of operation is taken into account by the company.
 The session yesterday was in some respects the most spirited yet held in the three-cent fare case. The state contended that the methods of arriV- ing at valuation on the part of the railroad company were improper since the cost of track maintainance IS charged to the public under operating expenses and vet the valuation re- mains the same as when the road was first constructed.
 The apportionment of the cost of eX pensive terminal facilities in other states, and the effect of adding DOT ton of such cost in the computation of rates in Arizona was one subject that was taken up and discussed at length. Pope was close questioned by Attor- ney General ss<Hard in the matter of depreciat nsf rails and ties, and the account lken of such depreciation by the col any.
 At th close of the hearing, the state moved i.iat the defendant company be ordered to produce additional detailed evience, summaries of which have al- ready been submitted. This motior was objected to strongly by the coun- sel for the railroad, but the orde, will be issued tomorrow, when the hearing re-opens at 10 o'clock.

THIS MAY BE FINAL SWITCH IN COMMITTEE
Substitution of Harry Lane for Tompkins Brings Peace on
 Race Commission

By substituting Harry Lane for J W. Tompkins, who was substituted for Herbert Worcester as the third member of the six months competi-- ton committee of the Phoenix Mot orcycle club, President Pottinger seems to have allayed the factional excitement and brought the workers together. Mir Tompkins, who was one of the efficient members of q very hardWorking committee on the first San Diego to Phoenix race last fall, is soon to break into the motor cycle leadership, and therein lay the objection.
 It has become a sort of unWritten law with the club that no dealer shall be on the competition commit tee.
 After his brief stay on the con- mittee, M. Tompkins confided in a Republican reporter:
 T am glad to see things lined up now. I can cheerfully lend my best efforts to the support of the new committee and it may all count on me as of yore. We will make the coming coast-tO-Phoenix race the biggest thing ever handled in long distance motorcycle speeding. O1 course,' with a smile, T am speak ing only as a member of the club.

PUT DAVIDSON
 IN MOTORCYCLE
Arthur Davidson of Firm Which Makes Harley-Da-- vidson Machines Drops in to Glance Over Lanes Agency Here

Arthur Davidson, the man who put his last name in the Silent Gray Motorcycles" is in town.
 J. H. Lane. proprietor of the Phoe- nix Cycle company, looked up from his work yesterday afternoon and was greeted by a quiet-looking stranger, who presented his card,- making him. self known as the big partner in the firm that makes Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and has his headquar- ters at Milwaukee The visit of the big two-wheeler maker was not alto gether unexpected, as it was known he is making a tour of the agencies, but the fact that he came so soon was something of a surprise Doe Lane will, naturally, be one of the atten- tive hosts during Mr Davidson's three-d day visit.
 An uncle, whose name could not be learned, is another reason for the manufacturers visit in Phoenix.
 According to Lane, MT. Davidson IS well pleased at the prospect of Phoe- nix developing into the foremost mo- torcycle city of the southwest. The excellent results obtained by HID machines in and about Phoenix IS another thing the visitor is eyeing with pride and satisfaction.
 Mir. Davidson will be in Phoenix over today and Monday. and may be persuaded to finger in order to meet with the Phoenix Motorcycle Club at it's regular Tuesday night meeting

excited was she that she grabbed the tent, out on road to the west. Some distance away she met a man with a buggy and rode with him until she came to a haystack, where she slept the night.
 When she returned in the morning she told her husband that she would leave him, and packed her trunk. The deceased again threatened to kill her as she left him. However, she ran out 10 the Scottsdale stage intending to travel into Phoenix The man pur- sued and caught her, and dragged her violently from the stage. When she appealed to the stage driver Mullanax threatened to kill anybody who inter- ferred. That night the girl went to the sheriff's office and reported her husbands threats, asking that a police officer might be told off to accompany ' her back to the tent to secure her baggage. This department however, was unable to assist her and referred her to Judge Parker. He could only refer her to the district attorneys of ice. Here she was sent back to the sheriff's office. She finally appealed to one or both to. assist her, but could get no assistance from either.
 All she owned on earth was con- tained in her trunk. and it was i'm perative that she should get it. To protect herself from her husbands anger the girl bought a gun from a Phoenix pawnbroker Defendant was unable to hire an auto to take her lack to the tent until 9 o'clock in the evening. MT.
