 1915 VALUATION SHOWS DECREASE
Tax Commission Fixes Valuation of Telegraph and Telephone Companies in State at $1,925, 25,762.51-Large
 Companies Show Slight De-
 crease in Assessed Valuation

A slight gain in mileage and a de- crease in the valuation is shown in the assessed valuation of telephone and telegraph companies for the year 1915 as announced yesterday. The valuation for this year is 1,925,76251, as com pared with $1,93S,21524 for 1914, and the wire mileage this year is 30729005, in all, an increase of a little over 565 miles over last year.
 The decrease in valuation this year which amounts to S12,45273, is due to reduction in the valuation of the properties of the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies and the Mountain States Telephone and Tele- graph company. The Western Union is assessed this year at S66 per mile the Postal Telegraph and Cable com pany at $54 pef mile and the Mountain States Telephone properties at $65 The last named company leads with a mile age of 1S.241, over half of which is in Marcopa county. The valuation of the companys property in the state is fixed at S1,1S5665 The Western Union has 7,211.64 wire miles in the state, and its valuation is fixed at S475,96824 The Postal company has 3,I65 wire miles, and will be assessed on a valuation of S170,915.4O.
 The shortest telephone line which is listed is that of the Chiricahua Tele- graph and Telephone company. It hac 14 miles of wire and is assessed at s3O per mile.

ID CHARGE F0R
 CLEANING CARS
Application of Railroads for Permission to Tax Shippers for Disinfectlns tG be Heard June IL StOckmcn to Fight

Whether or not the railroads of the state are to be permitted to charge for cleaning and disinfecting stock cars is the question which will come before the corporation com mission at a formal hearing next Thursday morning, when the appli- cation filed by five of the principal carriers of the state will be consid - cred. The railroads propose charge of S2.50 for each single deck car and S4 for double deck car for cleaning and disinfecting in compliance with the federal regulations.
 Cattlemen and shippers of live stock throughout the state are op- posed to the proposed charge and it IS probable that there will be a large delegation of them at the hearing. Judge w. L. Barnum attorney for the live stock sanitary board will represent the opponents of the extra charge. The Arizona Eastern, Ari- zona and New Mexico. Santa Fe. Fl Paso and Southwestern and Southern Pacific are the applicants for the charge, and will be well represented lt the hearing.

 JOFFRE IN THE TRENCHES
 General Joffre likes to squat down by the side of a fire in one of the trenches and talk to the boys who are fighting for France He wants to know what they are getting to eat, and if the supplies of ammunition come promptly, and if more blankets are reeded Now and then a private sol dier- gets a step in rank during those firesde talks. The tradition that every soldier carries the baton of a marshal in his knapsack is still alive in France. The men talk to him as to one of ther1- selves.
 It was this same General Joffre who some years ago came into close touch with one of today's reigning monarchs He saluted, but formally. At the first moment possible he escaped from the royal presence. A friend remonstrated.
 You were no more than courteous to the king said he. Joffre ruminated

 9TH CONN. REUNION
Only Handful of Survivors
 Able to Attend Feast at SaVin Rock.

Twelve survivors of the Ninth Conn. Vols, the famous Fighting Ninth. : of Civil war days, met yesterday in re- union at Savin Rock. Of the 90 sur vivors of this famous regiment they were apparently all who were able to be present. Among them were two Bridgeport veterans, Col. Richard Fitzsibbon and Capt. John C.. Curtis. Col Fitzgibboh, although 90 years of age. is still active and is employed as inspector by the Bridgeport Hydraulic Co. Capt Curtis is. more than 70 years Of age and has retired from active business life.
 The occasion of the reunion yester- day was the 53rd anniversary of the battle of Baton Rouge, La. There Col. Cahil1 of the Ninth took command of the Union forces and Col. Fdtzgibbon, them lieutenant colonel became regf- mental commander. Capt. Curtis was but r years old b-za for good conduct and attention to duty he had risen to be sergean t-Inajor. At that battle he took two prisoners and was promoted to be lieutenant on the field by Col. F.itzgibbon. He also received a medal of honor from Congress for his sbrav- cry that day.
 "Reminiscences of battle days were the chief topic of conversation at the reunion yesterday. Capt. Lawrence O. 'Brien of New Haven told many in- teresting and stirring stories of the war time experiences of himself and his comrades The regiment was in camp at New Haven before it was mustered into the service and there is a monumetn there erected in memory of those who died in the service.
 There were 120 Bridgeport men in the regiment and of these Col. F'itz- gibbon and Capt. Curtis alone survive There were HOO men enlisted in the regiment.
