WILL NOT APPEAL
INJUNCTION SUIT
(From Saturdays Daily.)

(From Saturdays Daily)
After thorough deliberation by
the board of supervisors and the
county attorneys office. it has been
decided to call off next months
special election to determine the
sentiment of the taxpaying voters
upon a S250OOO new courthouse
bond issue. This decision was yes
terday officially announced by the
county attorneys office, as final.
Judge Smiths decision apholding
J. J. Hawkins in his suit for 4
writ of injunction against the hold
ing of the election set for March
10, knocked all further operations
and plans upon the head. Instead
OF appealing the decision to the
supreme court, as was first planned
when the test case was brought to
determine the authority Of the board
of supervisors to issue bonds, the Of
licials babe decided to drop the case
entirely. But small hope is enter
tanned for a reversal of the lower
courts decision and the amount of
expense to be incurred proved an
other obstacle.
The abrupt termination of the To-
cal test suit vol probably be hailed
with no little disappointment by
three or four other counties in the
State which were patiently await
ing an appeal to the supreme court
with 4 view of settling similar diff
culties in their localities. 1t is now
most likely that the other counties
will follow in the footsteps of Ya=-
apai and drop their present opera
tons leading toward bond issues and

of the husband, it being claimed
that he was in no way response
BILE for the action of his wife. The
non-suit was allowed and a jury
gave Miss Venderdoes a verdict for
$1,000 against Mrs. Hageman alone.
Mrs. Hageman appealed on the
ground that the lower court had
erred. She claimed that heT hus-
band was responsible because OF the
marital relation then existing. In
the meantime the couple had been
divorced.
The decision of the supreme court
was written by Justice Cunningham
and concurred in by Justices Frank
lin and Ross. In part it says:
Paragraph 3lO5 R. S. Arizona,
1901, gave married women OF the
age of eighteen years and upward
the same legal rights as men OF
the age of Fl years and upward
except the right TO make contracts
binding the common property OF
husband and wife and further says
that she shall be subject to the
same legal liabilities. :. Men
are liable for their torts, there
fore, married women are likewise
liable for their forts. If married
men are legally liable for the
voluntary torts of their wives, then
such liability must rest upon the
wife for the voluntary torts of her
husband. This is absurd
in view of the expressed legislation
upon the subject of women's rights.
We have no hesitancy in holding
that the rule of the common law liza
bility of the husband for the volun-
tary torts of the wife does not exist
in Arizona"
In regard to the decision of the
lower court the supreme court
opinion states: The ruling was just
and wholly within the enlightened
modern view that should be taken
of the effect of the married women's
laws emancipating them from the
common law slavery"

CRIME INCREASE IS
PULLING TO NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Feb. 20-The an
nual report of the court OF special
sessions. which has just been sub
mitted to the mayor OF New York,
contains statistics showing remark
able increase during the year 1913
over the year 1912 in the number
OF cases appearing before the courts
in this city. In 1913 there were TO-
500 cases. as compared with ll.74O
in 1912, all increase of almost Al
per cent. Just how to account for
this increase is what is puzzling
Father knickerbockcr. The increase
in 1918 over 1912 in certain cases
is as follows: Assault increase 439;
disorderly house l03; petit larceny
400; liquor tax law 179; transfer
ticket law 20; unlawful possession
of revolvers 17o; labor law l,l39;
sanitary code LISA.
The most notable increase is IN
the violations OF the labor law.
There were 2,365 cases received; 1913
were convicted on trial as against
203l pleading guilty, 90 acquitted
and % dismissed. The composite
report OF the work in the childrcn's
court for the counties OF New
York, Kings, Queens and Richmond
shows that in 1913 there were 14,43l
new cases OF children brought be-
fore the four courts. The total
number of children charged with jul
venile delinquency in 1913 was
SOP.
In the cases OF children charged
with Juvenile delinquency the COM
plants were sustained in 5,3l2 cases
and, in special proceedings, the COM
plants were sustained in Alb cases.
In the year 5000 children were
under the courts probation treat
ment. The number of children
placed in institutions showed a de-
crease in the last year. \ total of
3,4l9 were committed in 1918 as
against 3.54O in 1912.
