 MONEY FOR GILA BRIDGE

On the condition that the county re- pay the loan inside of two years the board of control yesterday granted the request of the board of supervisors of Gila county for loan of $15,000 for the construction of a bridge over the Gila river at Winkelman. It is stated that the condition will he accepted.
 The fact that the proposed bridge is not oH state highway and that it will have to be paid out of tho county road funds, led the board to impose the con dition of early repayment of the loan. There is no bridge across the Gila at Winkclman, q cable ferry being the only means of crossing. Chairman w B. Nash. and Frank L. Gates, clerk of the board of supervisors; Norman J. Johnson. county attorney, and a mum Der of citizens of Winkclman appeared for the county.

CHARGES TACOMAN

SEATTLE, June 26.-Edward

suit in the King county superior
court today against Attorney H..

them with malfeasance and mis-
feasance in office, and asking for
a receiver.
Benson alleges that the Taco

company by failure to pay the
annual license fee; and by ne
glect to the property.
He declares that although he
had only 121,159' shares of stock
in the concern, Weeks controlled
$249299 worth of stock, thus
debating the destiny of the COM
pany.
Benson alleges that Weeks has
refused 10 turn this stock back

MAYOR
JUMPS
POLICE

Declaring that Tacoma was in
a worse moral condition than il
had been for years, Mayor A. V.
Fawcett today renewed charges
made by him several months ago
that the Tacoma police depart
ment was shutting it's eyes on
vice.
The mayors outburst was caus-
ed by information supplied him
that a notorious blind pig" was
operating openly in Old Town,
and that a Pacific avenue saloon,
-near 18th street, was selling
more booze on Sunday than 1t
did during the entire rest of the
week"
Restricted districts are rum
ning," declared the mayor today
Blind pigs are operating openly.
It's as easy to buy booze in Ia
coma on Sunday as 1t is any other
day.
There's one sure thing, some
of our city officials won't have to
worry about finances or another
job after they leave their posi-
tons in the city hall"
Fawcett referred the two blind
pig" cases to COMMISSIONS Mills
at the council session.
"All l want, Mr. Mills, is that
the people of Tacoma be treated
fairly he remarked. "If you're
going to let some liquor dealers
sell booze without licenses, AMI
others to sell it on Sunday, l think
we should let them all have the
same privilege. / get these re'
ports all the time, but nothing
seems to be done by your police
department to correct the evils"
Commissioner Mills replied that
his department was doing every
thing it could" to enforce the law,
and announced that he would
investigate the reports immedi-
ately.

The biggest business in
Tacoma today Is war bust
ness.
The two concerns that are
more rushed than any other
concerns are the Dupont
Powder Co. and the smelter.
The jowder company is
turning out between two and
three times as much powder
of all kinds as ever before i'm
its history. Most of ii goes
to VladivOstok, where IL is
sent by the Siberian railway
to the allies.
IL is good powder-accu-
rately timed, powerfully en-
plOsive, almost smokeless. by
all odds il is the best imple-
ment of murder in the world
this American powder of
Yankee ingenuity.
The copper business today is
rushing also as never before. Of
ficials of the Guggenheim copper
trust have announced the capacity
of the smelter and refinery will
be doubled. Five million pounds
month of best copper will be
turned out.
Most of it goes to England for
manufacture into the cases of bull
lets and into the construction of
war materials. And of what is
left, by far the big proportion
goes to American plants the pro-
prietors of which are growing rich
by manufacturing arms and mu-
nitions.
What will this mean to Ia
coma?
A tremendous prosperity? More
goods are being shipped and sold
from here than ever before. Our
exports show we are a great port.
So highly developed is the man
ufacture of powder that not a
half dozen extra men are required
to meet the increased capacity.
The chemists find it as easy to
fix up large mixture as a small
one. A little extra labor is re-
quired to handle it and carry out
orders. But not much.
OF the Guggenheim visitors
here, the financial heads had
considerable to say. They
talked eXpansiOn-told of
how the price of copper had
been increased by the war
from $f3 a ton to $2O.25 a
ton, with no increase In the
cost of producing it.

ALIBIS
DO NOT
STAND

Admitting, after a trip yester-
day to Olympia, Aberdeen and
Elma, where he had said he could
prove an alibi, that he had made
untruthful statements regarding
his actions during the last two
weeks, Joseph PARROT, arrested
Monday on suspicion of being con-
nected with the murders of John
Rainey at Wilkeson and Fred
Weiss at Olympia, was today
placed in solitary confinement at
the city jail.
PARROT will be taken to Wilke-
son Monday. An effort will be
.made there to determine whether
he was In Wilkeson last Saturday
evening, when Rainey was shot
from behind, while shaving in his
little cabin.
Psrrott has not been in either
Elma or Aberdeen recently, he
admitted today.
He had first told that he
bought the watch of Rainey, the
Wilkeson murder victim, from a
stranger in Elma, and that he had
had his shoes, said by the police
to be the ones worn by Weiss at
the time he was murdered, re-
paired at Aberdeen.
Sheriff Longmire and Detective
Milone yesterday proved to their
own satisfaction that these state
ments were false.
Beside taking PARROT to Wilke-
son, the police will bring to Ia
coma several loggers from Gate
City, near the scene of the Weiss
murder, who Say they noticed a
stranger lettering about their log
ging camps few days before the
rerime.
= "From information that l now
have, / am certain ] can prove
that Parrott was in the vicinity
OF Gate City and Olympia on the
day that Weiss was murdered, :"
