Live Stock Sanitary Board Issues Re port Showing Number of Animals
 Handled in Past Year

According to a report issued yeSter- day by sam Bradner, secretary of the state live stock sanitary board, there were 1881 head of cattle shipped out of Arizona during the twelve months of 1915. The number of cattle shipped to different points within the state during the same time was 91,49l Dur ing the same period, theer were slaugh
 tered in the state 5S49l head. Com
 bining the three figures. it will be seen that the number of animals handled in q commercial way, so as to come under the observation of the live stock de
 partment was something like half
 million, or to be exact, 415096.
 The state board makes a record of all shipments both into and out of
 the state, and also keeps close tab on all movements of herds within the states borders.
 In point of numbers, the movement of hogs comes second in the report of the board. During the year just past, there were 9,429 head of porkers ship ped to points within the state. and 5,692 sent to points outside. No record was available of the lumber slaugh- tered in the state.
 Although hog raising can be called one of the important branches of the live stock game in this state, there were comparatively few animals sent | form one point within the state to some other location within the borders. | and the report shows that only 3,711 head of horses and mules were so
 moved. The export shipments amount : | ed to 5,145.
 All of the above figures are to be 1 regarded as being fairly accurate be- | cause the board exercises extreme care l in checking up the movements of al | livestock, both incoming and outgoing

Denial of Figueroa's Story of Fri

Calling Jesus l.. Figueroa a traitor Felipe Martinez took the witness stand in Judge De Souza court yes terday and denounced the man who he said instigated the robbery of the Great Western Tailoring company and then Tied about us to the off cers''
 According to the testimony of Mar tineZ, the apple pie alibi of Figueroa does not hold good He declares that Figueroa and he were the ones who stole the $500 worth of suits and piece goods from the FribOurg estab- lishment. The reason l tell, said Martinez, "is because that man has turned traitor. He took an oath not to tell and he lied to us."
 Martinez went on to state that Fi- gueroa had planned the whole thing, had come to him and told him where they could make a good haul. He said that they were the only ones who had anything to do with the robbery.
 Under the questioning of Assis tant County Attorney Leon s. Jacobs, it developed that the others had as sisted. but had not been in the shop. Now, I have told all l wanted to and I'll not say any more,' said the witness, and further examination was fruitless.
 When the case was called against the five accused MeXicans. tenpe Martinez, Samuel Gutierrez, Francisco Valdez. Juan Moreno and Jesus Fiji gueroa, the assistant county attorney moved that the case against the lat ter be dismissed. Figueroa was then called to the stand and told and re- peated the apple pie story told the officers the day before and which appeared in The Republican yester- | day.
