 The Washington correspondence of the New York World insists that there is to set Mir. Wis son aside and to nominate Champ Clark for President Despite all reports from the country to the contrary says the Worlds special of recent date, Democratic members of the House opposed to President Wilson's policy of preparedness express the belief that the Exc cutye has lost ground since he started hs speech making tour and that the results Of his trip win not be helpful to him with the voters of his own party, And then we have this rigmarOle;
 "The leaders of this antipreparedness campaign characterize the utterances Of the President as calculated to cast dIstrust upon the good faith of the administration in endeay bring to preserve peace
 "A movement is on foot among those bers who are opposed to the Presidents idea of national defense to bring about the nomina ton of Speaker Champ Clark at the next Dem ocratc National Convention to be held in St. Louis on June II. Congressman who have dis cussed this phase of the political situation que that the Speaker never has been in favor of large standing army or formidable navy. and they believe that he more nearly repre- sents the views of those who behind the pace propaganda"
 This were to impeach the good faith of Speaker Clark who is supporting the Presidents pan and who on the heels of the publication of this stuff took the floor of the House in lead Of the preparedness forces Nor does it ten the truth about the Presidential plan The following is enough to make dog laugh or stir the gorge of brass monkey:
 Tt was stated that William Jennings Bry an who has been wintering at Miami. Fla. will be ready to begin his campaign against the Presidents preparedness policy about Che middle of February. Information to this effect reached the Capitol today.
 Tt is said that Mir. Bryan hes promised the peace advocates 60 give his time to their cause and that invitations have from ev- cry section of the country. requesting tho for uer Secretary of State to explain his doctrine to the voters.
 ~It is probable that Col Bryan will begin his speech-maldng tour in New York City and travel West visiting the cities in which Presi- dent Wilson spoke. and then continue to his home in Nebraska. This. at least, is the ten. tative plan. aud 1t is known that 1t will be en- tirely acceptable to the COmmoner"

ON[Y ACT IF LEG|SLATU URE
 CHANGES MAP

If the Supreme court affirms the | referee in his decision relative to the 1 eastern boundary line of Yuma county | and the western boundary line of Mar icopa county the four and a half mile 1 strip over which the controversy arose will be retained by Maricopa. While the line is not in the place designated by law. it has been so fixed by the counties and Referee John H. Campbell of Tucson contends that since the line was made by an act of the legislature and as such has been recognized, it is binding and relief may only be given by an act of the legislature.
 His decision is important in that many criminal cases have hinged on the question of county jurisdiction h. cidentally Maricopa also retains the four and a half miles which Yuma sought to recover and the taxes on this strip amounting to something like S50,000 for which the neighboring county thought she was entitled.
 Hearings on the matter have been held in Yuma, Tucson and Phoenix during the past six months to deter mine the question. This county was represented by County Attorney Clyde M Candy with Baker and Alexander as associates. County Attorney Cole
 
 Thomas Malloy looked after Yuma's interests.
 Since 1907 Yuma has been protest ing against the accepted line In 1889 by an act of the legislature the county surveyor of Maricopa, W. M Breaken- ridge and the county surveyor of Yu- ma l.. A. Hicks marked the line. It was recognized as such until 1907 when Yuma advised the Maricopa board of supervisors that it was not the true line and requested another survey. The request was refused and similar demands were later dsregarded. Mar icopa has continued to exercise juris- dictiOn over the territory lying between the true boundary line as defined by statute and the line as surveyed and marked and has levied and collected taxes upon this property. Judge Camp bell declares that Yuma may not re cover for the reason that the survey was made by the county surveyors who acted as regents appointed by the | legislature of the territory of Arizona. | The line he says is not in the place | designated by law but by the counties and has been in continuous use and if wrong can onlI be made right by the | legislature.

ALI THE WORLD DOES
 NOT LIVE A LOVER

Disappointed when the sheriffs office refused to kidnap his sweetheart Dol ores Valenzuela, who was held a cap tive by her parents, Angelo Rivera de- termined to wed the girl he loved with out official aid. Yesterday morning the Mexican youth. whose love affair with the Yaqui girl was blocked by parental opposition, met Dolores by chance. Quick as a flash he rushed her into an automobile and broke all speed laws in reaching the court house. While he tore madly to the clerks office to secure a marriage license, he left his bride-elect in the automobile where the distraught Mir and Mrs. Valenzuela found their daughter.
 When Rivera came back for the girl she was gone. She had not only left the court house but the city The fam fly, it is understood, have gone to Queen Creek, and according to it's lord and master will go still further if pursued by Rivera.
 The forlorn lover returned to the sheriffs office, where he told Deputy Sheriff George Drawner that he did not believe 'all the world loves a lover"

CHINESE LOAN PLANS MADE PUBLIC
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


 WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-Details of the proposed new American $60,00,000 loan for railroad construction in China, twice the size of any previous similar loan. ana arranged with a view to increasing the republics total railroad mileage by 90 per cent. were disclosed in detail here today by
 David s. Rose, counsel for the Amer
 ican interests, after the publication of dispatches from Picking indicating conclusion of the agreement MT.
 Rose was present during most of the
 negotiations and drew up the con-
 tract which now has been signed.
 Under the agreement, Mir. Rose
 said, tce Siems Carey Company, of
 St. Paul, Minn., contracts to construct
 as soon as possible with money furn-
 ished by the American International
 Corporation, 1,JG0 miles of railroad through the richest sections of China and obtains an optional contract to bu3ds another 1,500 miles later.
 China at present has but 6000 miles in the whole empire
 No official information has reached the state department or interested | diplomats concerning the arrange ment. Officials of the state depart ment say, however, that the loan and contract probably would not conflict
 in any way with the new Japanese 1 Chinese treaty. and there apparently i is not disposition in diplomatic guar 1 ters to believe that Japan or Great | Britain would undertake to interfere. 1 The loan is to be secured by the | property in the road itself and not by l any government guarantees.
 Surprise over the announcement of such tremendous project was eX- ] pressed here for the recent allure of $30,000,000 loan to the Chinese gov 1 ernment because American financiers could get better terms abroad seemed to show apathy among bankers here toward development in China. More over ever since President Wilson's announcement at the beginning of his administration that the terms of the so-called six power loan jeopardized the integrity of China causing the American group to retire, Chinese influences have sought in vain to i float q loan in the United States

MIAMI COV STOCK :,
 LIKED IN PHOENIX.

Hal Prince, who has charge of selling the Phoenix allotment of Miami stock, has been kept busy jumping sideways for the past few days, taking care of the flood of orders coming into his office for blocks of the stock.
 He stated last night that it was sur prising to note the number of business men who were not in the habit of buy ing stock, who had invested in Miami Consolidated, not as a speculation, but as a money making proposition.
 There are only 60,000 shares left to be sold in Phoenix. It is expected that these vii be taken up within a day or so.
 The fact that the property has the backing of Harry Lefkovits and John s. Cook, two of the best known mine promoters in the country, is leading the public to invest. The company owns 1900 acres of land that has ore crop pings all over the surface. Work will soon start, experts having been en- gagged to look after the drilling.

WASHINGTON Oct. 3.-Constant complaint that automobile users are re- ceiving adulterated gasoline from dealers has prompted the department of commerce to undertake standardiza- tion of the oil. The subject was dis cussed today by Secretary Redfield and pr. w. H.

Later the department will devise methods by which the standard can be made effective,
