Another British Battleship
 Torpedoed in Dardaneles

 navy is the sixth capital ship lost by the allies since the beginning of the Dar- danelles operations and the second which has fallen victim to German submarines which recently arrived in those waters.
 The submarine menace is growing one, both in the Aegean sea and home waters and these vessels promise to take an ac- tive part in the operations in the mar row waters of the Adriatic, where, as in the Aegean, islands afford good shelter.
 While the warships are able to es- cape submarines in the waters around the British isles, the increase in their numbers makes the carrying on of sea- borne trade more and more hazardous.
 The admiralty still believes that the American steamer Nebraskan, now on her way to Liverpool, was torpedoed. The British steamer Morwenna, bound for Canada, and the Danish steamer Betty have been sunk by submarines. Only a few days ago the commander of a sub marine informed a Danish captain that he had no orders to sink Danish vessels.

AMERICAN INTEREST
 BEHIND b|G SCHEME ID FACILITATE TRADE
Plan for Creating Market for Bills of Exchange on U. s. Banks Presented
 Pan-American Meet

Washington. May PA definite plan for creating a market for bills of exchange drawn on banks in the United States pay able in dollars was presented today at the conference between business and financial representatives of the United States and the Chilean delegation attending the Pan- American financial conference.
 It was said tonight that the Guggenheim copper interests, the Bethlehem Steel com pany and the Dupont Powder company, all Df which have large interests in Chile, are behind the plan, which would involve exchange aggregating some s2o,oooooo year.
 Representa- tives of the United States in this conference group were told that Chile exacted an export duty on nitrate and had provided that 9O-day bills of ex- change on London payable in pounds sterling shall be practically legal tender h. the payment of these duties and for other purposes. It was suggested that law be enacted to make bills drawn on banks in the United States legal tender to- the same extent, to facilitate the business ot the interests in the United States which spend millions each year in wages and in purchases in Chile.
 Promise Support
 The Chileans promised to urge their government to take the steps necessary. Later it was said the same proposal would be made to other South American countries where bills on London are legal tender.
 Features of the conference today were a general session luncheon given by Secretary McAdoo and trip to Mount Vernon on the presidential yacht May flower. Tomorrow there will be more group conferences and general session in which the groups are expected to make reports
 It became apparent today that several of the South American nations intend to make vigorous effort to have some con crete plan for improvement of steamship fa cilities submitted to the conference be- fore adjournment Saturday. Several coun- tries have declared themselves for en- couragement of shipbuilders either by direct or indirect subsidies. The Argentine ueleeduon IS ANXIOUS that dt least the United States Brazil and Argentina, as governments, through private capital take action tc assure that the future will not see a repetition of conditions that arose in the shipping world after the European war began.
 May Not Go Into Scheme
 While some bankers are known to feel that American capital will not go into shipping enterprises at present or until t is assured of certain notifications in existing laws. it has become apparent that q serious effort to get private capita or government aid back of a ship com pany can be expected as a consequence, of this conference.
 Some of the South Americans probably will remain in the United States after the conference closes in the hope of enlist. ing capital or of making other arrange ments that will assure the establishment of steamship lines.

BANK CASHIER ARRESTED
officer of Defunct Bowie Bank Ap-
pretended in Omaha, Nebraska.

G.. J. Armstrong, cashier of the
Bowie Bank and Trust company, who
has been missing since last Satur-
day, was arrested Tuesday by the
police officers of Omaha, shortly af-
ter his arrival in that city. Extradi-
ton papers for his return to Arizona
are now being made out, and he will
be returned to this state as soon as
possible.
Armstrong, who left Bowie after
locking the safe of the bank, was
driven to a small station east of that
town, and took the next train to Ell
Paso. From that city he wrote to
State Auditor Callaghan, alleging
that the bank had been talked to
death and that he had thought 1t
best to close up and leave town. Be-
fore the officers of the Pass City
could get on his trail he was gone.
When the bank was opened it was
found to contain only small amount
in change. When arrested Armstrong
at once announced he would fight
extradition proceedings.
W. D. Armstrong, brother of the
cashier, who was caught at San 81
mon in the act of leaving for Ne
braska, has waived preliminary ex-
animation and is being held in jail
in Cochise county awaiting the ac-
ton of the grand jury.

this week and its early passage, with
the house amendments, is looked for.
Final agreement as to the terms OF
the measure will be reached in con-
ference. -~--~
Bureau of Mines Created
Without a single opposing vote the
house passed representative Reeds
bill creating state bureau of mines,
in connection with the university,
and making an annual appropriation
of $4,000 flor its maintenance. Other
bills carrying appropriations are not
going to have such easy shedding, but
the government has virtually promis-
ed the annual expenditure of some
$4,000 for a mine experiment station
in Arizona If this state makes some
adequate provision for the teaching of
mining.
Minimum Wage for Women
Mrs. Rachael Berry, representative
from Apache county, today introduced
a minimum wage law for women, with
the backing of the State Federation
of Labor. The weekly minimum is $12
in the bill
Legislative Advisor
The lower house has appointed
S. L. Haworth of Prescott to be its
legislative advisor. The new off,
cial will relieve the attorney gen.
eraI in advising on bills, assist In
their preparation, revision and styl-
ing and in addition act as law
clerk. There are few attorneys In
either branch, and the need of ex-
pert advice of this character has
been felt ever since the session
commenced.

SHOOTING ON cHAsE cREEk
Teodoso Lopez Shoots Joaquin Con-
gales and Makes His Escape Into
Hills.

AS the result of a quarrel, which
occurred on Chase Creek last Mon
day evening, Joaquin Gonzales was
shot through the body with bullet
from large calibre revolver, and up
to the time of going to press the as
sailant has made good his escape.
According to the story of witnesses
Gonzales, the young man who was
shot, engaged in an alteration with
Manuel Lopez, the father of Teodoso
Lopez. The son interferred and told
Gonzales to leave his father alone
as he was not responsible on account
of having imbibed liquor too freely
Gonzales refused to be quieted and
declared that he could whip the entire
Lopez tribe and invited young Lopez
to an alley in the rear of the main
street, which invitation was promptly
accepted. A few moments later a
pistol shot was heard and the uncon-
scious body of Gonzales was found
lying on the ground.
The next morning officers made an
inv estigation when a. Mexican dagger
was found in the alley presumed to
have belonged to Gonzales. Lopez
evidently fired at close range as the
wounded mans coat was powder
burned. !
Constable Bradberry followed young
Lopez to his ranch the next morning
but he had escaped to the hills.
