 TRIAL 0CT. 20
lnciting Pimas to Rebellion is Charge United States Will Press Against Dozen Mexican Defendants Next Week

lnciting the Pimas to revolt, send ing rebellious ideas to wards of the government, and attempting to over throw part of the government of the United States are the charges upon which a dozen Mexican "conspirators" were arraigned before Judge William H. Sawtelle in federal court yesterday. And now, big and interesting chapter in AriZona's checkered history is about to be written in the records of the court
 On October 20. twelve Mexicans will face trial on three charges brought by the grand jury, which cleaned up it's slate yesterday and was discharged. Oscar T. Richey, former assistant United States attorney represented the offenders for the purpose of the ar raignment, and may act in their be- half during the trial.
 The men who will be tried are Fran cisco Moline, Tomas Calderon, Jose Encinas, Trinidad Cordova, Lorenzo Luna, Jose Franco J. M Lugo, Fran cisco Bejeca, Juan Moroyoqui and Teo- doro Cayetan. Three of the accused are not in custody. They who were, plead not guilty, which was the course expected of them, since their prelimin- ary hearing before the United States commissioner six weeks ago.
 The trials of several sellers of liquor to Indians have resulted in convictions. The large majority of the liquor cases have not come to trial, because the de- fendants have admitted guilt, and have been given the customary sentence of so days and hundred dollars.

Railroad men, representatives of

house of delegates appeared before
the house committee on roads and IN
ternal navigation. yesterday afternoon
in the chamber of the house. and ar
gued the passage of bill before the
general assembly prohibiting the rail-
roads of Virginia from operating trains
of more than fifty cars.
Many officials of the virginian.
which the bill will affect the most,
declared that should the bill be passed
the road will have to go into the hands
of receivers, as the operating expenses
will be more than the road can stand
They argued the revenue of the road
was derived practically through the
long coal trains from West Virginia.
and that should the bill be passed they
will have to cut their tonnage in half.
which would cost them approximately
81 600. 600 a year.
Outlay Would Be Too Heavy.
Then. again, they argued that to
carry the same amount of tonnage now
hauled, they would have to purchase
twice as many locomotives as tho
now have, and the expenses would kill
the road.
An engineer of the road declared that
the engineers OF the Virginian rail-
road desired the law to stand as 1T
is. and that every conductor on the

fused to endorse the bill

Of RICHMOND NEEDS
PAPER ON GENERAL DEVELOP
MENT OF CITY BEFORE
LOCAL SOCIETY.

The February meeting of the Rich
mond Society of Engineers will be
held in the Virginia Mechanics In
stitute on the night Of Thursday
February 18th, at SO clock: he --pe-
cial paper to be presented at this
meeting has been prepared and will
be read by Allen j. Saville, of Sa-
Vile & Claiborne, and Richard Mes
ser, engineer Of the State board of
health. The subject is The Need for
General Plans for the Development
Of Richmond"
The paper deals with the growth
in area and population Of Richmond
from its earliest beginnings up to
the present day, and also with the
growth of the various municipal
plants. showing the necessity for gen.
erai plans for this growth. Much
of the paper discusses problems which
the city faces today. Street railway
facilities are discussed. as we'll as
railroad terminals, and the river
front for shipping.
The locations of public buildings,
parks and Fairgrounds are touched
upon. showing the relation of this
side of the city's life to the proper
selection Of these structures and
grounds. The underlying idea carry
ing through the paper Is that Rich
mond lis destined to be great city
and that we should anticipate this
progress and properly prepare for its
development.
After the reading of the paper the
ar1hject will he discussed by the So
ciety. If the discussion In not fin
ished at this session II will be con-
tinued at a succeeding meeting.
