The text of the announcement cabled by Ambassador Gerard which was issued by the German foreign office is in the form of circular. as follows:
 T. Imperial German government natur- ally has no intention of causing to be attacked by submarines or aircraft such neutral ships of nations in the war zone of naval warfare, or definitely described in the notice of the German admiralty staff of February 4 last, as have been guilty of no hostile act. On the contrary the most definite instructions repeatedly have been issued to German war vessels to avoid attacks on certain ships under all circumstances. Even when such ships have contraband of war on board, they are dealt with by submarines solely ac- cording to>the rule of international law, applying to prize warfare
 "2. Should neutral ship nevertheless come to harm through German subina- rines. or aircraft on account of an unfor- tunate (x) in the aforementioned zone of naval warfare, the German govern ment will unreservedly recognize it's ra- spoEslbiity therefor.

taken up again with little prospect that if would become a law. The house had already made several amendments, some of them of a radical character. But the house went bravely on with the bill and at three o'clock in the after noon finished the reading of It in the committee of the whole. It was recon mended for passage and later the house sent It to the committee on enrolled and expressing bills. Having disposed oI some other matters before it, purely in the way of clearing the calendar the house stood at recess for the double purpose of awaiting the report of the enrolling and expressing cOmmittee and to eat lot of ice cream which the speaker had provided for the enter tainment of the members and attaches and such members of the press as ling cred about the gallery.
 Later the third reading of the district irrigation bill was begun and was con- tinued through the rest of the after noon and the night. It was then sent to the senate which unexpectedly con- cured in the amendment.
 When the senate met in the morning it was evident that it was handicapped by lack of a/majority that might be necessary for the passage of any bill with the emergency clause attached. But that was disability that did not

BUSINESS MEN AT
 MONDAY LUNCHEON
 TALK MORE PAVING

Paving extension was discussed and paving costs considered by over sixty business men at the regular Monday was in the nature of an informal get-together meeting, was held at the roof garden of the Arizona club.
 Introducing City Engineer Girard, Eugene Hackett who presided, told of his work as q member of the first paving commission, and as one of the first to work for paving. The city engineer spoke of the wide spread sentiment in favor of more> paving, and went into detail as to paving costs. Much useless expense, he said, could be eliminated, and paving costs reduced to almost one-half by cutting out certain features which have here tofore been deemed indispensable. one of these, he said was the cost of underground gutters at intersections.
 Under the specifications adopted for the paving of West Adams street, he said, the cost to fifty-foot inside lots would be but $242. and the ass essment on corner lots $50; the pay ments being distributed over period of ten years. Mayor Young, J. l.. B. Alexander. Judge Lewis T. Carpenter, Judge Joseph H Kibbey and John A J. Hartmann also spoke, emphasizing the need of more paving and also the adoption of specifications which would result in less expensive construction.

Marion McCann who had been sum moned to Ray on Sunday, in antici- patton of strike trouble there returned last night He spent considerable time in looking into the situation and found il a peculiar one From 1000 to 1.560 Mexican miners are out. but 1t cannot be said that they have struck They have made no demand upon the management of the Ray Consolidated company for an advance in wages and it is only by hearsay that General Manager Gates knows that they are dissatisfied with their wages.
 Mir McCann made a tour of Sonora town and saw many of the MeXicans but they were generally quiet. He attended a big meeting of them on Sunday night and there were no in cendiary utterances though wheR one of the speakers referred to a MeXi- can who had been put into jail for agitating and demanded that he be taken out there was some cheering. There have been no threats.

 MIR. AND MRS. A. H. TEBBEN.
 St. Mary's, Ohio."
 The foregoing is a copy of receipt issued on Wednesday, June 23, upon the occasion of the arrival at the home of Mir. and Mrs. Anthony H. Tebben, at St. Mary's, Ohio, of bouncing ten pound girl. Copies of the receipt were made freely and the first of these found their way to Phoenix yesterday. And thereupon there was much rejoicing.
 Don't know Anthony H. Tebben? Thought everybody in Phoenix knew Tebben and knew him well. Tebben used to be the foreman of The Republi- can composing room, but now he's pro- prietor of one of the leading confection- cry stores in St. Mary's, ohio. He and Mrs. Tebben went back to Ohio four or five months ago, that state having been their home previously.
 Time was when Tebben was single and was working in Phoenix that the general belief prevailed that he wasn't the marrying kind. He always greeted the girls pleasantly but that was as far as it went. He made annual eX- cursions pack east and each time upon his return seemed just bit brighter than ever before And finally he made another trip to Ohio, the memorable trip. and when he came back there was Mrs. Tebben and she was with him Ana that let the cat out of the bag, for II turned out that in all the years he had been working in Phoenix his heart had been in ohio. And when he brought his bride out here. those who met her wondered no longer that Tebben had waited.
 The Republican and all the friends of Tebben, and Mrs. Tebben, too, ex- tend congratulations and wishes for many happy returns
