OFFICIAL REPORT EXPLAINS FAILURE
 MACHINE GUNS

WASHINGTON, March 20.-An of ficial report explaining that difficult ty of loading in the darkness was irresponsible for the failure of two Iof the four weapons of the Thir- teenth cavalryis machine gun troop in the fight with Villa and his bandits at Columbus, was received at the war department today. Press dis patches telling of the guns tanning had caused Brigadier General Crozier, chief of ordinance, to order an investigation. A report transmit ted by the officer commanding the machine gun troops the San Antonio arsenal follows:
 ''The reason for the tanning of the machine guns during the fight last Thursday was not the failure of the mechanism to function properly, but was due to the fact that the night was dark and it was very difficult to load the guns. In loading the guns the feed strip has to be inserted in a mar row slot or guide. If the strip is not inserted properly in this guide, the gun will fire about five shots and will then jam. This happened to two of my guns as it was so dark that it was almost impossible to get, the SCrlpS III tue SlOCS-. l He OGHer two guns did not jam and the most exc cution they did showed the value of machine gun fire The ammunition. was not reloaded and had been manufac- tured since 1910. The eXtractors are all model 1914"
 General Crozier is reported to re- gard the explanation satisfactory, as
 the troopers were fighting under the most adUlrSa conditions
 No entirely satisfactory machine rifle has been yet developed,' said the general; that is, we have not yet had a machine that is not liable to stop. It must be remembered that these weapons are machines operat- ing with tremendous pressure and velocity of the moving parts and that they are subject to the weakness and infirmfties of all machines. They have never reached the simplicity and perfection of construction which
 would insure their operation in the hands of the ordinary soldier with the same certainty that attends that of the ordinary rifle or pistol. Their
 infrmities have been accepted be- cause of the large effective output
 which can be had from them when | they do work we'll"

TUCSON GETS GO p. STATE CONVENTION
HubbeII Says Campbell, Kibbey or
 Heard Will Suit Him fop Governor

After their discovery of an entire 1y new and unique method of eXtri- eating a deliberative body from very unpleasant predicament in which they found themselves on Saturday in the manner which the endorsement of national woman suffrage was adopted the members of the state republican central committee at Phoenix worked harmoniously throughout. the remain der of the session. -t
 If the Phoenix gang" had any deep laid plot for capturing the meeting and naming the delegates to the Chi |cago convention, as had been prev iously charged by an organ of the party, they did not make any attempt hto play their cards.
 Tucson was selected as the place for holding the convention of the part to name delegates to the na- tional convention and the date fixed for May 6. In place of permitting coun- ty committees to select the delegates to the state convention, it was order ed that they be selected, either by holding primary elections or by mass meeting in the various precincts for the selection of delegates to the coun- ty conventions.
 
 on and Young in 1914 was the basis of representation for the convention. A political love feast was held in the evening at which Judge Kent de- livered speech which was. recogniz- ed as the key note for Arizona repub- licans when he stated that "the issue which confronts us at the coming cleo tion is not tariff, not finances-it is Americanism. 9 Senator J. L. Hubbell, of Apache county, R. E. Morrison of Yavapai, General A. J. Sampson, of Maricopa, Dr. Percival Lowell,of Co conino, Tom Campbell,of Yavapai and former governor J. H. Kibbey of Ma ricapa were among the other speak CTS.
 Hubbell pledged his support to any good man, be he republican or pro- gressive, so called, and named three who would be perfectly satisfactory to him, Tom Campbell, Judge Kibbey or D. B. Heard.

operation of Pari-Mutuel machine within the state, but, on the other hand, it is of the disinterested opin- ion that the public policy of the state, together with the gaming statutes, permit not only horse racing, but a wager upon the result of such a race, through the operation of Pari- Mutuel machine ''
 If the courts decision is in accord, Phoenix may become racing center. Hundreds of visitors would be at tracted, and spring and fall meet ing assured which would bring the finest horses in the land to contend on the fastest track in the west.

ARIZONA MAY BE A PARADISE FUR
 HORSEMEN
Attorney General Agrees That Pari-
 Mutual Violates No Law.

Er
 The unusual incident of the attor ney generals department agreeing with counsel for defendants in crim- inal cause was presented in the state supreme court this morning, when in the case of state of Arizona against SS w. Mccall, G. w. Harben, assistant attorney general, informed the court, in the course of the argument, that he agreed with the main contention made by counsel for appellants.
 The Scase involved the question of whether the operation of a so-called Pari-Mutual machine in connection with hosre racing in the state of Ari- zora contravenes the gaming statutes SGf the state.
 4n order to make a test case on this question Mccall operated Pari- Mutual machine at the state fair last fall in connection with the races. A prosecution was instituted against him in the superior court of Marico- pa county, and the court held that the Pari-Mutual system was illegal. Ap- peal was then taken to the state Su- preme court and the matter was ar .yued and submitted this morning.
 G. W. Harben, assistant attorney general, appeared for the state, while q. P. Bullard and the legal firm of Carpenter & Conmy appeared as at- 1orneys for the appellant.
 The cruX of the argument of defend ants counsel was that inasmuch as neither horse racing nor betting upon races was prohibited by the statues of Arizona, any intermediary device whereby a wager upon a race should be carried out, as by a Pari-Mutual machine for instance, could not lOgi- cally and consistently be held to be in violation of the law.
 The brief of the attorney general defining his views in the matter was in part as follows:
 Before the proceedings were insti- tuted against the appellant in the lower court, the department of the attorney general rendered it's opin- ion that the operation of a Pari- Mutuel machine within the state of Arizona would not contravene the gaming laws of the state, and accord ingly it now desires to submit the question now before the court upon the argument and authorities ad- vanced by the appellants brief, togeth- CT with some additional observations which will be presented in this brief.
 Tt is perhaps not amiss to say that the department of the attorney gen. eral is of the opinion that Pari- Mutuel machine may be operated within the state of Arizona without violating the gaming laws, not be- cause of any desire it has to see the

that she made two years ago now laced
exceeding pretty and indeed was fine all
over; and mighty earnest to go, though
the day was lowering; and she would
have me put on my fine suit. which ! did.
And so, anon. we went alone through the

bringing it into actual contact with alu-
minum in a solution of an electrolyte.
while this method removes the tar
nish effectively and with practically no
loss of metal, it gives the articles cleaned
a satin finish rather than the bright bur-
nished appearance obtained when abra-
sive polishes are used. After the spoons
| used in these experiments had been
cleaned a number of times by the cleo
trolytic method it was found necessary
to rub them with paste of whiting and
water to restore their original bright
polish. In practice, therefore, it may be
found desirable to use the electrolytic
method as frequently as is necessary to
remove the tarnish, and to rub the sill
yer with some good abrasive polish only
as often as may be desirable to restore
the Furnished appearance.
"A combination of the two methods is
sometimes used by adding one or two
teaspoonfuls of finely powdered whiting
to each quart of the cleaning solution,
and after removal the silver is allowed
to dry without being rinsed. The film
of whiting which adheres to it is then
rubbed off with soft cloth. This has
the advantage of convenience but the
polish obtained is not so bright as when
the two methods are used separately.
"The results of the experiments indi-
cate that washing soda Sodium carbon
atel is slightly more efficient than bak-
ing soda Sodium bicarbonatel, and that
one teaspoonful of each washing soda
and common table salt to a quart of wa
ter is the most economical concentration
of the electrolyte. The most satisfac-
tory results were obtained when the
cleaning solution was kept at the boiling
less than minute usually
sufficing to clean the silver. Strips of
both aluminium and zinc proved efficient
for use as the active metal of the meth
3D. but the zinc corroded more quickly
than the aluminium, owing probably to
the formation of a protective film of
basic zinc carbonate, which had to be re-
moved by hydrochloric acid. The cleo
,rolyte method of silver cleaning has
,een found in general to be satisfactory
or household use. It's principal advsn-
age is that it saves labor In addition,
t is convenient and clean and removes
he tarnish from both sterling and plat
d silverware without apprecsble loss

TO MEET.
NEAR BOSTON
Mexico Commission to Gath
er in New England for
Conference
STEP BY STEP
FOUNDATION
Will be Constructed-Each
Agreement Must Be Sep
arately Ratified

Washington, Aug 25.--Word from
Mexico City was being awaited at the
state department, and the Mexican EN-
bassy yesterday, before fixing a definite
date for the first meeting of the joint
American Mexican commission to discuss
border problems. IL tentatively has been
decided, however. by Secretary Lansing
and Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambassa-
dor designate, that the commissioners
should meet at some place on the New
England coast during the first week in
September.
/ With the session of the commission
virtually at hand, there is no question in
| the minds of officials that the withdrawal
OF American troops will be first taken up,
to be followed BY the drafting of a pro-
tocol covering future border operations.
1t has been stated officially that the
commissioners viii be authorized to sub
NIT each agreement they shall reach sep,
arately, to be acted upon by the two
governments Some officials think il pos.
sible this will be the course pursued, so
that the commission can build from week
to week on foundation which has been
ratified step by step, both in Washington
and Mexico City
The third subject outlined for discus
sion by General Carranza is an investi
cation of the interests behind border
raids. What that investigation will de-
velop into. no official is prepared to pre-
dict. 1t may take the commission to the
border or it may be turned over TO the
secret service agents of both govern
ments for preliminary investigation,
while the commission bushes itself with
other matters.

Silver and Aluminium.

Unlike most other metals, silver and
gold are not furnished by the oxygen,
water vspor or carbon dioxide present in
the air nor by the action of weak organ
ic acids Silver, however, readily forms
the black silver sulphide on coming in
contact with sulphur compounds, small
quantities of which are commonly found
in the air as a result of burning coal
and Illuminating gas. while larger
amounts occur in vulcanized rubber, wool
and foods like eggs. The problem of
cleaning silver involves the removal of
the tarnish of silver sulphide by some
method which will also restore the polish
to the surface of the metal.
"A few wears ago the so-called electro
lytic method for cleaning silver was in
troduced to the public, and several forms
Of those cleaners. which are all alike in
principle. are now found on the market.
