LITTLE NOTE DISMISSED
MOST vOLUM|NOUs CASE
ChucawaIa Land Application Rejected,
Appeal Time Up, Case Closed, Was
Biggest Case-On Paper

In about ten lines of typewriting, the
assistant in the general land office at
Washington utterly rejects the appli-
cation of the ChucaWalla Development
Company for the Pyramid Canyon dam
and reservoir site, as outlined, drawn
and described in a perfect mountain of
blue prints and closely typewriter
specifications.
The site applied for is in Mohave
county on the Colorado river and
acros it from Nevada. The lands de-
scribed in the claim lie on both sides
of the river, zigzagging in and out Of
the little side canyons and draws-in-
Guiding in all many thousands of acres.
The books of blue print maps, and
the reams and rcams of correspond
ence. make this one of the most volum-
nous records in tie land office. A
whole bale of rapers was returned to
Phoenix yesterday for transmission to
the original claimants.

TOBACCO LIKE GOLD DUST.
Appeal of Men on Firing Line Gets
Quick Response.

Correspondence of the Associated Press
LONDON. October 2.-Messages from
the front saying that tobacco is like
gold dust to the soldier has so touched
the sympathy of smokers that mail to
the continent is now filed with cigar
cites. pipes and plug cut. Societies are
formed for the collection of tobacco in
Its various forms, and boxes for such
contributions are now prominent on
hotel desks and club tables and other
places frequented by smokers.
While all classes are helping Tommy
Atkins to get his smoke, temperance
societies are fervently urging him not
to drink. These societies want men to
volunteer to do what was made COM
pulsory in the Russian army by the
cars anti-vodka decree
One well known Anglican bishop has
asked the men to pledge themselves to
refrain from drinking even beer or
light wines. although they may know
the water to be polluted.

RAILWAY RATE ISSUE
FACTOR IN OPENING
Resumption of Stock Exchange
Awaiting Commissions
Action.

NEW YORK, October 14.-Au parts
of the country are inquirfng of Wall
street concerning the prospects for
the establishment of official quotations
on securities and the probable time for
reopening of the exchange. The ex-
change ruled yesterday that it will
permit dealings among members in
listed guaranteed stocks at price con-
probability no quotations would be
given officially until the stock market
resumes operations. When that will
be is no clearer than when the market
was closed two and one-half months
ago.
1t was said generally in the financial
district that more depended upon the
outcome of the application of the east
ern railroads for freight rate in
crease than any other factor. excepting
perhaps the duration of the war.
In the view of Wall street, the ex-
listing railroad situation has passed
beyond the question of valuation OF
railroad holdings and has become
merged with every phase of business
Sented to the interstate commerce
commission when railroads next week
again state their case in Washington.
Deprecated r. r. Securities.
Recognized authorities on economics
and finance have been engaged by the
railroads to present their arguments
to the interstate commerce commission.
| The depreciation of railroad securi-
ties, it is argued. affects not only the
railroads themselves. but also the in
vesting public and all classes of semi
public institutions, such as savings
banks. insurance companies and col
leges, whose investments in large part
are placed in transportation companies.
To re-establish public confidence IN
these investments, the first essential,
in Wall street opinion, is an increase
in freight rates. Should the increase
be granted, it was said, long step
will have been taken toward re-estaD-
lishment of normal conditions. and 1t
would naturally lead to the reopen
ing of the stock exchange.
Sharp Difference Of Opinion.
A sharp difference of opinion exists
whether it will be necessary to sus-
pend trading on the exchange until the
end of the war, or at least until the
London market reopens. In some
quarters the view was expressed that
to reopen the exchange in advance or
London would be to invite resumption
of liquidation on an enormous scale
