SHER|FF'S TROUBLES ARE SUBJECT OF
 COMMENT

TUCSON, Dec. 16.-Although Tue son has been far removed from the strike zone troubles in the Clifton Morenci mining district, the con duct of Sheriff Cash in taking over the light plant at Clifton is arousine much discussion locally.
 i The crux of the dispute between the sheriff and the managers of the mining companies seems to hinge or the point Of whether or not the sher tiff exceeded his powers in placing men of his own choosing in charge of the plant, and putting them on the pay roll of the company.
 According to persons who were in Clifton at the time, it was understood that the companies had asked the sheriff to take charge of this plant, but the question has arisen as to whether he had the right to dis charge old employees from the light plant and place his own men in their places. If there had been enough of the old employees remaining at the plant to keep it in running condition according to the verdict expressed here, the sheriff might have been guilty of exceeding his powers, but on the other hand, if any emergency had arisen in which the sheriff was convinced that the people of Clifton would be deprived of light and water the sheriff was warranted in taking the plant over.
 In the meantime Sheriff Cash has been ordered to appear before the corporation commission and give a full account of his guardianship.
 Hunt Tells Cash To Use Soldiers
 Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. Ex-Governor Hunt wired Sheriff J. G. Cash at Clifton last n.gkt in regard to the telegram received by the corpor- ation commission to the effect that it is rumored that the water sup ply of the Morenci Water company is to be tempered with.
 The governor advised Cash that since no martial law exists in the strike. district that he is at liberty to utilize the militia stationed there as he sees best
 The governor also communicated with the Greenlee county board of supervisors reiterating his recom- naOdatiOnc an additional onpnhor of deputies.

PHELPS-DODGE DIVIDENDS
 $2o A SHARE THIS YEAR

Boston. Dec. 21.-In 1915 Phelps to stockholders total of $20 share in dividends as compared with $14 a share last year, $16.5 50 in 1915, s15 share last year, $16.5O in 1913, $15
 This big disbursement will have been made notwithstanding the per sistent hindrance to operations at two of the corporations mines-Mocte- zuma in Mexico and Detroit in the Clifton district of Arizona. More so than usual, therefore, the brunt of supplying the necessary earnings has fallen upon the Copper Queen.
 Not since September Il has the De- troit, with capacity to produce about 30,O00,O0O pounds or copper annually, turned a wheel on account of the strike which even now does not ap- pear to be near its end. The MeXi- can troubles have, from time to time, forced the Moctezuma property to cease operations, either through in reference with the plant or lack of railroad communication.
 Not only high copper prices, but the strength in demand for and price of lead throughout the year has been a factor in swelling the Copper Queen earnings. The sales department of the company has also had a larger copper yield from the Calumet & Arizona Mining. Company, for which it sells copper on a com mission basis
 The principal ownership of Phelps Dodge & company stock rests at 99 John street, New York, where the company has its headquarters. Al though listed on the New York Stock Exchange, transactions when they oc- cur are generally over-the-counter operations.

GOLDROAD SHIPS
 $25,ooo GOLD BAR

Last Wednesday the usual weekly bar of bullion was brought to King man from the Goldroad mill, it's esti- mated value being above S25,000. This is approximately the value of the bar shipped from the mill last week and indicates the increased value of the ore milled.
 From the new ore bodies recently opened up in the mine comes some of the best ore ever taken from the property. It is said that this ore body is Showing greater strength each day as the work of exploration progresses. When the big shaft reaches the 1900 it is thought that the ore bodies along that level will be found better than at any other level in the mine.

FALT|N F|ASCO COST STATE OVER
 S3OOO
Attorneys and Doctors Get Fat Fee and Expenses of Trial Are Very Heavy.

! PHOENIX, Dec. IT. The State board of control yesterday approved a bill of $500, presented by Warden Sims of the State prison, for attor- ney's fees. The bill presented by Sims was an outgrowth of the con- tempt proceedings instituted in the State Supreme Court by Attorney General Wiley Jones, when Sims re- fused to hang William Faltin, in spite of the orders of the court In approving the bill presented by Sims, the board took the stand that it was entirely justified in paying it, as Sims, State employe, incurred the expense in the conduct of his office. In the boards opinion, Sims acted legally, as the jury at Florence. Wednesday, upheld Sims and found the man insane.
 The $500 paid yesterday, is only a small part of the expense incurred by the State and the two counties in the Faltin case. The trial at Florence was exceedingly expensive. A num- Der of witnesses from this county, were present, and all drew down mileage and all the other expenses of the trip. Five doctors were present, receiving in addition to their expen- Ses, healthy per diems for their ser vices as specialists. The jury also 0or in fnr fhni cIo af ic1 The men serving in this capacity were members of a special panel, and did not serve at the regular Novem- Der session.
 The statement made by Parole Clerk Sanders on the witness stand Wednesday, that ''No man who had $500 was ever convicted of crime is strangely upheld in this case. Faltin though he was not supplied with ready cash had an equity in his small ranch on Seventeenth street. This was sold for $500, and the proceeds turned over to his attorneys at the time of the first trial. Who has been putting up the money for the insanity proceedings, was a question frequent ly asked at Florence, during the trial, but was never aswered to anyone's satisfaction.
 It is probable that the entire pro- ceedings cost the State in the vicinity of $3000. The entire cost may be re- peated in case the question of Faiths insanity is ever brought up again, that is if an effort is ever made to get him out of the insane asylum. and hang him.
 Sims attorneys were Messrs Geo. F. Stoneman of Phoenix and O'Con- ner & Conby of Florence.

IMMUNITY Is ASKED
 FOR VILLA

FL PASO, Dec. 19.-A conference ,of United States military, state and city authorities and representatives lof the Carranza and Villa govern ments, held here secretly today, it was requested by the Villa delegation that General Francisco Villa and his brother, Hipolito Villa, financial agent of the Villa government, be permitted to cross the border unhar- rassed by legal, criminal or civil action.
 In return for the immunity of the Villa brothers, the Villa delegation promised that new chief would be selected to head the Villa movement and pledged the leader, when select ed but as yet unnamed, but believed Ito be Governor Avila, to turn over the entire military and civil organization of Villa controlled territory to the Carranza government
 Should the guarantee of immunity not cover all persons affiliated with the Villa movement, the pledge would be withdrawn and the fight against the de facto government of Cartanza would be continued.

PLOT 55 FEET SQUARE FORMS
 BURIAL PLACE FoR5ooo BABES

Baltimore, Md, Dec. 20.-In an exhaustive, detailed report the state wide vice commission named by Gov ernor Goldborough in January, 1913 identity.
 Probably the most sensational of the features dealt with in the report 1 is the alleged traffic in babies. It is are institutions in Baltimore to which the mother of an illegitimate child may consign her offspring upon the payment of an agreed upon sum and forever rid herself of legal responsi- bility for it.
 | Of the hundreds of children so taken in charge by the institutions the con- mission ayers that 80 to 90 per cent die and are buried in heaps in small plots of ground one such plot approx imately 55 feet square having been l the tomb of five thousand babies since 1SS6
 The high death rate is attributed to the separation of the infant from it's mother at birth, thereby depriving it of the individual attention it would have received otherwise No evidence was adduced that the babies were neglected at the institutions.
 Since the commission began it's work the police have closed the resorts in the red light districts here formerly tolerated by the authorities. Accord ing to the report, however, there is mo evidence that Immortality is not practiced as extensively as ever. Much of this evil is practiced clandestinely, lsays the commission, and business places, offices and even homes are said to have been found in great num- bers where immortality is introduced and continued in practice.
 Much attention is given to social conditions in factories, stores and of flee buildings and many instances are given of immortality forced upon girls by their employers or their superiors at their places of employment, the penalty of refusal being the loss of position.

IA. [. CO. TAXES OVER
 POWER PLANT
Sheriff Cash, Who Has Been Operat- ing Plant Since the Beginning of The Strike Turns 1t Over to the Company Officials.

On Wednesday of this week Sheriff Cash turned over the Arizona Cop Der Company power plant to the off, cials for their operation
 Master Mechanic Hardy, with a corps Of assistants, has been busy getting the plant in readiness to resume operations where they were interrupted in September It is un- drstood that it is optional whether union or company men will be em- ployed by MT. Hardy in the opera tion of the plant. However, several of the old employees are making pre- parations to resume their former po- sitions at the plant.
 Upon the institution of the strike on September 11th Sheriff Cash took over the operation of the power plant and the works have been under his supervision since that time, with power vested in him to employ whom he thought best regardless of their stand at this time.
 The present arrangement to turn the plant over to the company was mutual agreement between the sheriff's office and the officials of the company, and the arrangement appears to be generally satisfactory

An American Brakeman is Killed While Riding on Top of Box Car by Bullet Which Probably Game from Mexican Side.
TEN THOUGHT KILLED l BY MEXICAN RIOTERS
Stormy Day Is Had When Former Soldiers of the Lion of the North Demand Their Pay, More Trouble Thought Possible.

FL PASO, Dec. 21-Heavily armed Mexican and American troops lined opposite banks of the Rio Grande to- might as result of the riot in Juarez among Villa soldiers for pay. A shot from the south border, and believed by the United States military authori- ties to have been fired on American
 troops, toppled George Diepert of El Paso, a railroad brakeman off freight car. He was dead with a bull
 let in his heart when the corporaPs guard reached him. His train mates
 fled at the shot. Later the train pull I ed out of the range of the Mexican
 cavalry that moved along the bank of i the Rio Grande. Shortly afterward

 can customs guards. Reports of
 fatalities in Juarez varied from two to

 huahua and credited with saying that he intended to continue his opposi- tion to the de facto government. Tonight it was stated at the Carran- ga consulate that the generals in Juar-
 ez, who had turned, the town over to the Carranza government, had control and were in conference upon the elec- tion of military leader to take full charge and appoint a paymaster to re- ceive the 100000 pesos in Carranza paper currency with which to pay off the soldiers.
 Unofficial reports from Juarez were that if the attempt was made to pay off in Carranza currency the rioting
 would be resumed. During the after noon a report was circulated in Juar- ez that Villa had reached the city at 5 o'clock but early tonight he failed to make his appearance.
 Andres Garcia, consul general, an nounced that Villa had been located at Bostillo Ranch, west of Chihuahua City. Carranza officials stated Gen. eral Alvaro Obregon was enroute from Hermosillo to take command in Chihuahua. They expect Obregon to reach here tomorrow. An order was issued at Fl Paso tonight which for bade Americans to cross the river to Juarez.

 Mexican civilians crossed to the Un-
 ited States, many of them carrying household effects.
