The CASE Or COMMA.
Law Court Overrules Motion for New Tria

Law Court Overruies Motion for New Trial
The law court Dec 21st handed down
rescript in the case of the DevereuX
Company Of Castipe VS.. Sheriff Forrest
o. Silsby, everything the motion of the
plaintiff for new trial. The rescript is
assfollows:
This is an action on the case in which
the plaintiff sues to recover damages for
the loss of the steamer Corinna, her
tackle, apparatus and furniture, through
the alleged negligence of Norris L. Grin
die deputy Of the sheriff appointed by
the defendant and for whose conduct the
defendant is answerable. The jury found
for the defendant. The plaintiff moves
for a new trial because the verdict is
against the law and evidence.
On the fifth day of May, 1915, Norris
L. Grindle, the deputy of the sheriff, at
tached the steamer on writ issued out
of the supreme judicial court. On the
twelfth day of September, 1915, the
steamer was accidentally destroyed by
fire. The two questions of fact that the
jury passed upon were, die the officer
use ordinary and reasonable care after
the attachment and prior to the fire, and
since the fire has he done what an or
binary prudent and cautious man should
have done to preserve and care for the
property remaining under water?
The jury found. under proper instruc-
tons, as to the care that it was the duty
of the deputy to exercise, both before and
after the fire, that he did exercise the
care required. and there was evidence, if
the jury believed it, that justified their
finding, and we can find nothing in the
record that tends to show that the jury
were influenced by prejudice, bias or
mistake; that the evidence was sufficient
to authorize the verdict we think is clear
from the reading of the testimony, and
the finding of the jury Upon the question
of fact must be sustained.

ROAD WORK DONE

The Grant County road workers
have completed the new Border
land Route, going directly west
from Lordsburg across the Ami
mas lake into Stems, and thence
to Rodeo, following the ridge road
off one mile this side of Stems.
The new road is one of the best in
Grant county and is at present be-
ing heavily travelled by autoists
to and from points in Arizona. A
high and dry grade was built over
the lake and will be an "all the
year round" highway. A short dis
tance from Stems a good cutoff
connects the new road with the
Granite Gap road and thence in
connection with the old Border
land route.
The road workers have made an
excellent job of the new road pro-
iect and the people of Arizona who
have been demanding good roads
in this section should now give
Grant County credit for its efforts.

MINES AND MINING
SELLS TUNGSTEN PR0PERTY

SELLS TUNGSTEN PROPERTY
One of the most important min
ing transactions of the past few
months was eliminated here on
Tuesday when DR.. M. M. Crocker
sold his tungsten property at the
Victoria Mining district near Gage,
N. NJ, to the Nevada Hills Mining
Company, represented by Charles
Starr who will have charge of the
future operations of the mines. It
is understood that the considera-
tion received for the property was
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
The property sold consisted of
eight claims located by DR.. M. M.
Croker four years ago. In the ear
ly nineties the property was work
ed for the silver contents of the
ore, but later tungsten was dis
covered on the property. The
claims are developed by two shafts
one 130 feet deep and the other
80 feet deep. At the 40 foot level
a drift has been run, developing
the main vein, which is about
twenty feet wide. The lead is in
a lime formation, with quartz gan
que enclosing the tungsten. Ship
ments made by DR.. Crocker show
a content of about 60 per cent
tungstic acid in the ore.
The mines have been examined
by some of the worlds best author
tiles on tungsten and all pronounce
it as one of the best properties in
the west.
The new owners plan extensive
development work, to begin at
once, and treatment plant will be
erected to mill the ore.
Attorney Hayworth of Prescott,
Ariz., accompanied Mr.. Starr here
to close the transfer of the proper

DEATH OF BENZ. TITUS ,

Another of L ords bur g's
pioneers has answered the call
of the Grim Reaper. Benjamin
Titus, for twenty years manager
of the Binn Lumber Company
here, Director of the Arizona
Eastern Railroad and first Grand
Master of the Masonic lodge in
Arizona, died in the Ladies' Hos
pital at Deming following a
stroke of paralysis. Mr.. Titus
many friend throughout the
Southwest were grieved to hear
of his death as many believed the
aged man to be in fit condition
to brave life for several more
years.
The account of his death
follows.
Following a severe stroke of
paralysis while attending the
grand lodge of Masons at Tucson
last week, Benjamin F. Titus pass
ed away in the Ladies Hospital at
Deming at nine o'clock on Satur-
day night, aged 79 years. Mr.. til
tus came to Lordsburg thirty years
ago as manager of the Binn Lum-
Der Company, later buying out
that business for himself, and
managing it for a number of years.
He was interested in the Copper
Queen and other we'll known min
ing properties in Arizona, and a
a great part of his wealth was de-
rived from these sources. He was
also a director in the Southern
Pacific Railway, the Arizona East
ern railway and the First Nation
al Bank of FL Paso, and a con-
servative estimate places the value
of his estate between $75,0000 and
100000, all of which is left to one
brother back in New York.
Mr.. Titus was the first grand
master of the A. F. & A. M. in Ari-
zona and always took deep and
active interest in the work of the
order in that state and in New
Mexico.
With premonition that his end
would not be long delayed, Mr.. Til
tus recently made arrangements
for the disposition Of his remains
when the call did come for him,
and Immediately after his death
his body was prepared for burial
by ]. A. Mahoney, Inc, and was
shipped back to Huntington, Long
Island, N. Y, for interment in the
family burying ground. Two bro
theirs, John E. and Joseph Titus,
survive him, both residents of the
state of New York.

False Reports

Following, the Liberal is pub
fishing an article appearing in
the Los Angeles Examiner
of March 18th on the second
page, dealing with a wild
attack on Lordsburg," a most
inconsistent and outrageous in
suit to the people of this city and
revealing stupendous ignorance
on the part of the publishers of
the article. How the Santa Fe
got its shops at Lordsburg and
how six thousand idle Mexicans
went on strike months after all
strikes had been settled will ever
be a mystery that only the Ex-
aminer can solve.
The disgusting piece follows:
Threats TO Rob Bank, Burn
Homes and Kill All GringOs Re-
ported From LOrdSburg, N. N.
Reports of disorders have come
from numerous border points.
The women and children in the
district northeast of Hachita have
been concentrated at Lordsburg,
M. M, and have taken shelter
in the Santa Fe Railroad round
house. The district is being ter
rorized by Mexicans who, until
recently, worked in the mines of
that district.
They are said to have threatned
to burn all homes, loot the bank
of Lordsburg and kill every grin
go they can catch, in resentment
over the invasion.
Just north of Lordsburg there
are said to be six thousand idle
Mexican miners on a labor strike.
