LOWER GAS RATES
 EFFECTIVE FEB. 1sT..

The SOuthside Gas and Electric con- rany have made announcement 10 the effect that the order issued out of the, United States district court, sitting at. Los Angeles, will be complied with and that the new rates are effective from the first of this month.
 Ths order reducing the lighting charge for electricity two cents per kloWatt hour is the result of a decision of the Arizona corporation commission and from which the Southside company appealed. The decision reduced the. charge for lighting from 16 to IA cents per kilowatt hour for the first ten, and a similar reduction is provided from the existing rates on the number from ten up to one hundred kilowatt hours.
 Under the instructions of the court the new rate is to be tried out for sev- cral months. It was contended by the corporation commission that a reduc- ton would result in considerable addi- tional business for the company and also that the present rates were too high. The Southside company an- nounce3 it's determination to make | very active campaign for more patrons during the interval prior to final deci- sion by the court as to the herman ency Of the rates.

WILL RAILROADS CARRY BOOZE NOW OPEN ID QUESTION
Big Question Partially Settled, But Win Thirsty Ones be Able
 to Get in Their Supply

large portion of the population of Phoenix inclined to take a drink now and then. heaved one great sigh Cf relief yesterday morning, when The Republican informed them that it was TO longer illegal to ship in intoxi- eating liquor.
 It was claimed around the streets, that the wires of the telegraph com pany were overloaded, carrying rus orders for shipments large and small
 In fact it was also asserted that l..e AUeless was worked quite hard.
 The question that has now arisen
 is whether the railroad companies ard the Wells Fargo Express con- pany will carry the shipments. tor some time past they have been re- fusing to touch thing that looked vet. In fact the Wells Fargo have a basement full of perfectly good booze in their station at Los Angeles, be- ing held there for shipment into Ari-
 zona
 When questioned on the proposi- tion last night, General Agent Colds
 worthy of the Santa Fe, Prescott and
 PhoenIx, stated that he was unable to sdy what the attitude of his road
 would be. A copy of the decision had
 been rushed t9 the legal department and pending reply from that source, all shipments would be held
 General Agent Cater of the Ari- zona Eastern, when interviewed oli the subjecl, was little more inclined to be liberal on the subject, and was of the opinion that his company would accept shipments into the state. He also stated that he would await with interest the decision of his roads legal department
 Whether or not the Wells Fargo will carry liquor, coud not be ascertained last night. It was the concensus Of opinion about town. that no difficulty would be encountered. There was quite a general celebra = lion on down town streets Saturday night. In fact it looked as if the saloors had opened again. There were few arrests for drunkenness, but at the same time. liquor was evil dent eo considerable quantity in several quarters.

Petition to be Presented to Council at Meeting Tonight. Opposition
 Expected

That there will be q lively time at the meeting of the town council to- night when the petition calling for a general closing of all merchandise houses on Sunday, comes up for at tentiOn, seems probable.

WOMEN ASK GOVERNMENT
 ID REGULATE DRESS

COLOGNE, June 8. - Disappointed that both personal and official pleas and warnings have had little or no effect, the Woman's Alliance of Co., logne and thirty-fiye associated wo- mems associations and organizations have petitioned the governor of the fortress to issue a decree forbidding the wearing of high-heeled shoes, wide flowing short skirts and other apparel that has been smuggled in from coun- tries at war with Germany or that is patiently a copy of foreign mode and fashion.
 Tt shows lack of patriotism and is a disgrace for German women" !" says the petition in part, that many of them go about in clothing which by its striking. frivolous nature mocks the earnest sentiment that rules among the people at this time of mani fold need and severe personal suffer ing" The petition declares that lux. ury of a noticeable sort in clothing is nothing but an insult to the unfOr- tunate. and is unworthy of the Ger man woman at this time.
 since all the pleas of sensibly thinking people, as we'll as the off cial cautions, have been without re- suit" concludes the petition. we ask the governor to take steps against the above named evils"

the average debt of these six belliger ents has gone from 2SO francs to 535 francs. France now owes 1,250 francs per head as compared with 800 francs per head before the war; Germany 59O francs as compared with 97 francs; Great Britain, 5G5 francs as against 342 francs.
 French economists have estimated the riches of France all the way from two hundred and fifty billion to three hundred and fifty billion francs. Tax, ing three hundred billion as a basis it would mean 7,7O0 francs per head; with an income per head not including salaries and wages, of 300 to $50 francs, while the interest charge on the increased debt now figures out at about 1900. 100000 francs, or about 33 francs per head
 While France paid nine hundred and sixty million francs interest on her debt of thirty-two billion francs be- fore the war, her annual budget had gone far above the five billion mark, of one 12S francs a head. Those bud gets were loaded by generous social legislation and liberalities of all kinds such as were particularly favored by the paternal sort of a state that the French republic had become. It is pointed out that strict economy may take at least billion and half francs out of those budgets in the future, covering the interest of thirty billion francs new debt at five per cent.

STEEL CORsETs WORN BY
 OFFICERS IN TRENCHES

Officers in the trenches, as we'll as officers in other military units, usual ly wear steel corsets as a protection against spent bullets.
 "Score one for the breastplate," said an officer who had been doubled over by shell fragment which hit him in the abdomen. Instead of flow of blood crimsoning his blouse all that was visible through the rent in the cloth was an abrasion on a steel sur face.
 But for your new corset you would have been dead now" the surgeon told him.
 Early in the war an officer who wore protection of this kind would have been drowned on by his fellows as unsoldierly. A type of corsetlet
