DEAF ON SILVER BELL
 LEADS TO LITIGATION

TUCSON, August 24-Alleging
 that the Development Company oi
 America, or Frask NJ. Murphy, as rep
 resenting the stockholders and bond
 holders, was the real purchaser of
 the Imperial Copper Company's prop
 critics at Silverbell, the Arizona South
 crn railway and the Arizona Southern
 Smelling Company, at foreclosure
 sale for the insignificant sum of $102,
 GOO, and tha they are negotiating a
 sale with the American Smelling & Refining Company and have made an
 agreement with that company, by
 which the latter is doing work or the properties, John H. Martin, trus
 tee in bankruptcy for the copper
 company, Monday brought suit in equity against the Development Com pany to recover $1, ,2S0. .6S622, the amount of debts allowed against the copper company in the bankruptcy proceedings, and also to subject the mining properties at Silverbell to q lien of all said debts.
 It Is alleged that the Development Company, by its successful fore closure suit in the Pima Superior court against the properties under mortgage given for bonds and cap ital stock, stripped the copper com pany of practically all its assets. Since all but $42,296O7 of the bank ruptcy claims are controlled by the Development Company, the suit is virtually brought to recover for these creditors, who otherwise would lose all.
 The bill alleges, among other things, that the Development Com pany was engaged in the business of developing and operat- ing mining and smelling properties, and building and operating railroads in Arizona; that it had an option to purchase the mines for $515,O00 in 1903, and created the Imperial Cop per Company as mere dummy and agent for the purpose of acquiring title to and developing and operat- ing the mines; that the incorporators, directors and officers of the copper were employees of the De Company; that the De Company owned and con rolled all the capital stock of the copper company of the par value of i've million dollars, and also caused | he copper company to place mort gage on the mines to secure bonds in he sum of two million dollars, which | were issued to the Development Com oany; and that the Development Com oany received and collected all the !

ESCAPE INJURY OF
 DEATH BY MIRACLE

Many and miraculous were the es capes from death when the trair plunged through the trestle
 Climbed Out Window.
 In the baggage coach, which fol lowed the engine into the hurtliro cloudburst stream, Charles Field, tho baggageman. narrowly escaped deatl from drowning. He was busy at tho time the car fell on its side into the water, and it was but a few seconds before the lights were out and hC felt the water speedily creeping ur on him. At first he though thst he was trapped and gave up all hope oi escaping from the car, which was speedily being filled with water Field remembered that the transoms were usually large in the car, and he climbed on the baggage and breaking one of the windows got out on thl roof of the car. Assisted by the CT gineer he helped the people out of the wreck of the smoker, which lay to one side and on to the roof of the baggage car.
 Moved Back Just in Time.
 Although John Anderson was no! injured nor was he in any of the carc in the bed of the creek, he escaped being a victim of the accident in an extraordinary manner. He was with Dr. D. c. Durfee and N. P. Carlson of Chandler The three of them werc making the trip to Flagstaff on . cattle deal. Anderson, before leaving had reserved a berth in the Pullman and had asked his two partners to do the same, but they replied that they could not sleep even if they did have a berth, so they preferred to ride In either the chair car or smoker Their decision ended in the death of one of them and serious injury to the other. Anderson. wishing to be with his partners until he retired. sat in the smoker with them and did not return to the Pullman until just few minutes before the wreck oc cured. Carlson and Durfee sat to- gether in the smoker and when the car went into the creek. Durfee was caught between the seats and drowned, while Carlson broke loose but had his scalp torn off by a part of the wreckage. Carlson, after com ing to the surface, was caught by the strong current and floated down the stream for nearly quarter of mile before he reached the bank All three are farmers at Chandler and Durfec was a practicing veterinary surgeon. The latter leaves a wife and two children to mourn his death.
 Anderson declared that all that was felt in the Pullman was a slight shock.
 Death Stalked Between Them.
 Probably the most marvellous es- cape of all was that of J. C. Brad bury, W. H. Merritt, Dick Merritt and Joe Andres. They sat in the middle of the smoking car, the first two in a seat opposite that of the last named persons. All we're bruised

 TO CAUSE OF DISASTER

Those arriving from the scene of the wreck last night, as well as many passengers aboard of the train al the time of the accident, give two versions of tic cause of death. Ono is by drowning and the other by be ing killed outright from the terrific impact.
 Where the fatalities took place was in the smoker, and all four bodies were found on the floor of this car which was pinned down by the eX- press car The smoking car was lyine in the stream, and the debris therein indicated that it had been filled with water All bodies were found tc have sustained many ugly wound, about the head, face and body, anG it was believed death was instantan eous.

ROOF OF SMOKER
 IS RIPPED OFF

The roof of the smoker was ripped off in the terrible crash, which per mitted a score of passengers to find exit through that channel. It is be- lieved that had not this fortunate con dition been available the casualties would in all probability have been frightful. The Pullman sleeper alone remained on the track of the five cars of the train.
 The smoker was splintered into fragments, and how any escaped seems a miracle. Only few in the day coach were slightly injured.

PLANS CHANGED IN
 COURSE OF BIG TUNNEL
(Fron, Wednesdays DaiIy.l

(FroEl Wednesdays Daily.)
 Arrivals frop Crown King are quite enthusiastic over the projected :rosscut tunnel undertaking assuming practical consideration in the near future. Preliminary questions are set lied, by new survey made recently, in which the location of this huge exploration movement has been changed from that originally made.
 The tunnel will begin at a point be- tween switchbacks eight and nine on he Bradshaw Mountain railway, about two miles from Crown King, opposite and east of the Lincoln mine. This development will cut the formation of that belt at right angles instead of diagonally as surveyed many years ago by the Crown King Mines Company, as well will greater depth be given than was originally ranging from 300 to 500 feet, according to the zones affected The War Eagle will be tapped to depth of nearly 2,5O0 feet, and the Wild Flower at over 5000 feet. The length of the tunnel will be approximately l4,OO0 feet, and eight well defined ifs sures will be explored. The move ment is attaining the earnest consider ation of capital, mine owners are heartily behind it, and those promot- ing this laudable project feel conf lent Of plans early maturing for ac- tive work to begin.

gregations engaged in the service of
Germany have now been compiled,
although they cover only the first half
year of the war, to January 1, says
America" According to the care
fully arranged tables, the Orders of
men have furnished, during that time,
1858 soldiers, of whom 232 we're
wounded and So killed; 1907 hospital
and Red Cross workers, of whom 386
were in the field; 127 chaplains at the
front, 253 priests laboring in the
hospitals and 20 in the prison camps.
Thirty-eight of the members of relig-
ious Orders were decorated with the
Iron Cross. The SisterhoOds have
been at least equally active: 1,054
Sisters were with the army and in the
halting places, while 1902 Sisters
were engaged in hospital work
at home, having had in their care no
fewer than 27O,25O wounded before

ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY

ization if Central Council were es-
tablished in Washington which would
serve as a clearing g-house for the activ-
tiles of the different subordinate
branches throughout the country and
also be the medium through which
these conferences would be kept in
touch with the headquarters of the So
ciety in Paris. To that end it is pro-
posed to establish Superior Councils
in each ecclesiastical province in the
United States which will direct and
supervise the work of the parochiaI
conferences and report to the national
headquarters in Washington.
It was unanimously decided that the
ST. Vincent de Paul Society of the
diocese be represented at the forth
coming convention in Washington by
Mr.. James G.. Nolan, President of the
Particular Council of ST. Paul, and Mr..
]. G. McConville, also Of this city.
These delegates will go to Washington
and take part in the convention with.
out any expense to the local organi-
zation and on their return will make
a report of the work of the convention.
In the general discussion which took
place at this meeting, reports we're re-
ceiyed from the different paroeltial So
cieties and suggestions were made for
the extension and furtherance Of this
phase of charitable work into which
the personal equation enters so large
ly. 1T was the general belief that con-
ferences should be established in near
ly ALL if not all, of the parishes in
the Twin Cities, at least, and that an
effort be made to interest a score or
more of men of each parish in the
work of the conference. With this as
nucleus, interest in the st. Vincent
de Paul Society in the diocese will not
lag as much as it has during the past
few years.
There was good spirit of cooper.
alton shown by all who attended the
meeting and this promises well for the
future of the Society. Later on an
other meeting will be held at which
action will be taken on the sugges-
tions made at this meeting and fur.
ther efforts will be made to stimulate
the Society to greater activity on be-
half of the poor

POPE APPOINTS FATHER MARINIS

lTARY cHAPLAINS.

At the request of Cardinal Mercier
the Sovereign Pontiff has appointed a
head chaplain of the Belgian army dur
ing the continuance of the war. The
choice has fallen on Rev. Jean Mar
inis, secretary of the Archbishop of
Malines. He is constituted, by re-
script of the Congregation of Extraor-
binary Ecclesiastical Affairs, the prop
er Ordinary for all clerics and priests,
regular and secular, who, at the front
or in the Belgian hospitals, give spir-
itual aid to Belgian soldiers. The re-
script determines his powers of juris-
diction, which are similar in all re-
spects to those of Monsignor Bartolo-
mesi, head chaplain of the Italian
army. The Able Marinis has already
directed for many months the affairs
of the Belgian military chaplains with
devotion and tact universally appre-
ciated.

The ornaments, also of marble, will be
treated in old gold.
The estimated cost of finishing the
interior of the chapel of st. Peter in
keeping with the architectural splen-
dor of the Cathedral, of which it forms
part, is $4,000. Through the gener-
osity of Mrs. Mary McCahill of Lake
City, Minn., the whole amount has
been pledged to the building commit
tee.
Plans have also been prepared by
Mr. Masqueray for the finishing of the
chapel of ST. Joseph, the funds for
which have been provided by the Sis
ters of st. Joseph of this diocese in
honor of their patron. 1t will be fin
ished in American marble and before
long the contract will be awarded.
The fund for the completion of Our
Lady's chapel, which is being raised
by the Catholic women of the diocese,
is not yet in hand, but an effort will
be made to complete it before long,
and then another beautiful chapel will
be added to the other two.
The committees in charge of the
chapels of ST. Patrick, st. Boniface,
and IS. Cyril and Methodius, are bus
lily engaged in gathering funds for
these specific purposes from the differ.
ent nationalities of which these Saints
are the patrons. AS soon as the funds
for these national chapels are com.
pleted the contracts for their finishing

was no longer able to carry the heavy
burden of the Office. She has been
an invalid ever since, but bears her
suffering quietly and patiently, and
every day sees her at the Holy Sacri-
flee of the Mass.
