MINES ACCOUNTING
 ASTOUNDS VISITOR
 IN THE DISTRICT
EXPERT HAD NO IDEA OF DETAIL WHICH ENTERS LARGELY
 IN MINING SUCCESS

J. r. Mclean, representing La Sale Extension University, Is in the city from his headquarters in Fl Paso in the interest of his school, which is of Chicago and has a large number of students in Arizona. Mr. McLean's particular business here IS in connection with a class in ac- counting which his school has under way in the district.
 Yesterday Mir. Mclean had a look at the bookkeeping system of the Shattuek. It is Illuminating, as ln' dicating the lack of general concep- ton which there is with the public as to the detail system which of necessity prevails with big mining companies, that Mir, Mclean came away from his look over the Shat tuck books expressing high astonish- ment because Of the complete eff ciency he had found. Being an ex- pert accountant and familiar with the bookkeeping systems in vogue with industrial and rail enterprise. his opinion of mining accounting, as gleaned from brief peep in this district, is both interesteing and of value.
 q had no idea" said Mclean last night, that mining involved any suchexpert and complete system of accounting as I now know is asso- ciated with its successful conduct. Why, according to these Shattuck books, they keep track of everything right down to the cost of the air man breathes in the mine work ings. It is wonderful, and exceeds in skill and valuable minute detail the best care that is taken of ex pense accounts in any line of enter prise that know of. It explains tc

Rebels Have Ample Sup plies for Move on Saltillo. Capture of City Would Give Them the Greater Half of Mexico
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

TOEREON, May 14-General Fran cisco Villa, commander of the consti- tutionalist army now moving against before his departure as to what course the Huerta garrison at that city will pursue, but he had done every thing possible to meet any situation. His army is amply provisioned for thirty days, and from all appearances has enough ammunition for the task before it. Each man carried from 25O to 400 rounds of ammunition in his belt, and it is said there is also an ample supply of artillery ammunition.
 Each soldier cooks his provisions which consist of tortillas of corn meal, drief beef, beans and a little coffee, on fires built on the car roofs, most of which are corrugated iron. Coal cars are used to transport many of the infantry, while the field guns are loaded on flat cars with men crouched in the spaces under the wheels and beneath the caissons.
 The sanitary corps of the army. or
 
 battle of Torreon, consists of 45 sur geons, 110 regular nurses and more than 300 volunteer nurses. About 20 surgeons have gone to the front be- fore Saltillo, while the others are in charge of the hospital bases. There are four pharmacists at the front and at least one at each hospital base
 The transportation of the wounded from Saltillo is to be effected by eight automobile ambulances. Ten ordinary automobiles have been alter ed to carry those slightly wounded Each brigade will have it's field dress ing station, and as soon as possible the wounded will be sent to the rear. Villas forces are accompanied by an armored train, consisting of three cars running ahead of the locomotive The first car carries several field pieces and machine guns; the second, machine guns only, and the third will be manned by sharpshooters. The train, which is protected by boiler iron, runs ahead of the connecting trains and serves as protection for the track repair men.
 [ Saltillo, the objective point of the present campaign, is town of 23,000, situated eighty-four miles from Mex ico City. It has an elevation of over 1 5000 feet.
 With Saltillo in the hands of the constitutionalists, it is thought here : the Huerta government will lose all claim to the greater half of Mexico With Saltillo in possession of Villa and Carranza. the federals must retire upon San Luis Potosi, making it pos sible for the government of the north to concentrate it's troops upon that point without fear of being outflanked This also will permit the constitution alists in West Mexico to press bacl their unsupported opponents, so mar rowing the theater of war that it i. believed one or two more engagement. will bring the revolution to an end.

BWdgie Webbey Admits He Lied
 At First Trial
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH


 NEW YORK, May 14.-Counsel for Charles Becker, former police lieu tenant, now on trial charged with the murder of Herman Rosenthal, q gambler, drew from Bridgie Webber, described as the financial packer of tie plot, admissions that he had lied, and that he made affidavits at the first trial which he today swore were false
 Under the fire of the cross exam nation Webber trembled. his mouth quivered and then curled into a smile. At times he seemed to defy Martin T. Manton of Becker's coun- sci to draw any contradictory state ments from him. At other times he appeared to give way in despair. ..
 Mention of the death of the four Sun men in the electric chair af- fected the witness almost to the point of tears. But he gripped the arms of the witness chair, regained control of himself and went on with his testimony.
 In it's essential points the story he told of the murder conspiracy and it's results remained unchanged by cross examination. The attorneys for the defense, however, expressed themselves as gratified that they had made Webber admit that he had lied

Says He is Tired of Bearing the Brunt of Criticism Heaped Upon Him and Proposes to Put Blame Where It Belongs
MUST PRODUCE
 MORE DOCUMENTS
More Than an Inkling of the Remarkable Story Coming is Given by Him Before Adjournment is Taken Until Tuesday
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH]

WASHINGTON, May 14.-Cool ana composed and responding readily to the fusillade of questions put to him, former President Mellen of the New Haven railroad, began before the ln- terstata commerce commission what is expected to be one of the most amazing stories ever told in the his tory of high finance.
 Mellen, placed on the stand, over the emphatic protest of Attorney General McReynolds, is the princi- pal witness in the proceeding through which the interstate commerce com mission. by a decision of the United States senate, is endeavoring to de- velop facts concerning the financial operations of the New Haven ana it's subsidiaries, as well as the much discussed Billiard company. He pro- missed to place at the disposal of the commission every fact and "eV- cry scrap of paper with the New Haven mark on it. relating to trans actions with which he had to do as president of the system. It was eVl- dent he was anxious to tell the story He had indicated in letters heretofore produced at the inquiry that he is tired of bearing the brunt Of the criticism heaped upon him for New Haven transactions, and fl the blame can be attached for them he proposed to put the blame where it belonged.
 He was on the stand only short time, and adjournment was taken until Tuesday to enable him to re- turn to New England for documents. Just before the opening of the hearing Mellen was served with q new subpoena, which covered much more ground than that originally served upon him. The new one called for the production of all documents or papers in his posses sion relating to the operation of the
 New Haven and all of it's subsidi- aries. More than an inllling of Mel lens remarkable story was given by him during the brief hour he was
 on the stand. He told how. in the acquisition of the New York West
 chester and Boston railroad by the New Haven. more than 5000 shares | Of New Haven had been given for 24.000 of the other, although, he said, he considered the Westchester

Thimk Zayag0za,S Foyces Likely To
 Be CMt To Pieces
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

VERA CRUZ, May 14.-There is general belief here that General Za- ragozas forces will be cut to pieces before he reaches the line south of San Luis Potosi in retreat from Tampico. Constitutionalists overrun the country about San Luis PotOsi and control a considerable portion of the railroad. Northward along the federal lines the country is rugged, barren and proDably impossible to the weary veterans of Tampico, who have long been under siege
 In ZaragoZas rear rebel forces are ready to press after him. When the constitutionalist leader, Caballero, warned the commander of the British cruiser Hermione of his purpose to at tack Tampico, foreign residents imne- diately began to go aboard the ships. It is reported that all foreigners have who chose to remain.
 Consul Canada is disturbed over the detention of a Cuban messenger. sent out to General Maas' lines with let ter urging the release of Admiral Fletcher's Filipino servant, who wand cred into Mexican territory and has been held by the federals for a week.
 Jose Manuel Cardoz de Oliveira, the Brazilian minister to Mexico, has all ready protested to General Huerta's government against the execution by his troops of Private Samuel Parks. an American infantryman, who disap- peared from the lines at Vera Cruz, &C., cording to passengers who arrived here today from the capital.
 No formal admission of any irregu- larity with regard to the death of Parks was made, but among Mexican military men at Cordoba last night there was some gossip that the shooting of Parks had much to do with the substitution for General Maas of General Rubio Navarrete in charge of field operations.

Arizona Senator Denounces Bristow as Falsifier, and Kansan Has Things to Say About the Army and Navy
APPROPRIATION
 IS JOB PLAN
This Charge Brings Retort from Henry F. Involving Probable Location of the Brains of the Gentleman from Kansas
ASSOCIATED PRESS DpPATcHl

 WASHINGTON, May 1 1.-The prai- rie dog stirred up more trouble in the senate today than the tariff, currency, tolls or woman suffrage had done in the entire session. Before the furry was over. one senator had denounced another as a "falsifier" and the demo- crats had been accused of converting the party's economy pledge into sa- tire
 It all came about by Senator Ash urst being absent from the senate when it agreed to the s125,000 item in the agricultural appropriation bill for Investigating the obnoxious farm anil nal. Today he asked for reconsidera- ton so he might insert a S5,000 in crease for the investigation of the methods cf exterminating the prairie dogs. which he said, had uprooted whole townships in Arizona.
 Senator Bristow remarked that an appropriation for the extermination of prairie dogs was the most asinine thing he had ever heard of, because every farmer knew how to get rid of them
 Everything I do seems asinine to the senator from Kansas, Senator Ashurst retCrted.
 For a minute the storm promised to pass over, but Senator Gronna started it anew in answering the remark of | Senator Bristow by declaring with some heat that certain senators there could be fictitious about everything.
 'I am not in favor of calling out the army and navy to exterminate the prai- | rie. dog" Senator Bristow replied. This thing looks to me like strained effort to get an appropriation to give some jobs."
 "No one would make that statement whose brains are not at the base of his tongue instead of in his head" shouted Senator Ashurst as he ad- vanced across the chamber toward the Kansas senator.
 | Any senator who says I am seeking to get some jobs by this item speaks what is false, and knows he is a falsi- | fer
 Roll call on reconsideration cut short 1 the debate Reconsideration was de- l feated by a tie vote of 26 to 26.
