 STOCK MARKET }
 .~~~~~N~~S

New York, Dec. 22-Opening- Dealings were extremely narrow with insignificant price changes in the first half hour of today's short session or the stock market. Sentiment was again somewhat confused by the con flicting tenor of overnight advices from abroad. Railroads were 1nclln- ed to react, but industrials, shipp1ngs and a few specialties registered mod crate gains. Trading for the most part was in very small lots. Foreign bonds strengthened but Liberty issues were unchanged.
 The market forshadowed the 1m- today's market foreshadowed the in- bending holidays. Dealings fell below normal and embraced only the better known issues. The strength of for eiEn bonds including Russians, and a moderate demand for shippings, olls and motors were almost the sole fea- tures on the constr active side at ex- treme gains of to K points. 2 Steels and similar equipments were hesitant' yielding fractionally in the later dealings. The closing was irregular. Sales, 1S5,000 shares. Liberty As sold at 97.04 to 97 and the S16s at Q8. AS to 9S,24.

To RESTORE
PREHISTORIC
ARIZONA HOMES

WASHINGTON, March 30-Mr.
Neil M. Judd, Of the United States
Museum, has just left for Arizona to
for the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition the excavation and repair of
prehistoric ruins and cliff dwellings.
The work will be carried on under
provision in the Indian Appropriation
Act, Interior Department, for the
and repair of the remains
of ancient dwelling places of certain
American aborigines in the Navajo
National Monument.
- The Navajo National Monument
comprises three large ruins located
in the northern part of the Navajo
Reservation, in Arizona, about IT'S
miles by trail north of Flagstaff
There is a>road for about third of the
way but there is little traffic from it's
termination to the Navajo Monument
From there the way is difficult to
travel also on account of the scarcity
of water in the desert to be crossed
the lack of opportunity to purchase
supplies, and the steepness of the
ascent near the monument which is
truly in the High Rocks" as the
Hopis designate the location of their
former home.

CONCESSION BROKERS
CUT DOWN IMPORTS

3 PHOENIX, Ariz., March 3O-Trad-
ing in export concessions from Sonora
is largely preventing the Importation
into Arizona of many herds of cattle
from Mexico according to Sam B.
Bradner, secretary of the live stock
sanitary board. About $4,000 head of
cattle have been brought into Ari-
zona from Mexico in the last two
months, according to reports to the
board. Spectators in export conces-
sions, who secure concessions to ex-
port cattle from Mexico, and then pro-
ceed to realize on their concessions,
the purchaser in turn doing the same
thing, have made shipments of cattle
from Mexico diminish rather than in
crease. q
The cattle industry in Arizona is
enjoying the greatest prosperity in his
tory said Secretary Bradner today.
THE late spring is causing losses in
some localities, but indications are
that the production of cattle this year
will show an increase over 1916"

JEROME VERDE
SHAFT REACHES
1850 Fl. LEVEL

JEROME, Mar. 30-Jerome- -Verde's
shaft has reached the 1050-foot level,
and further sinking will be discon-
tinued, as this depth is equivalent to
the 1400 level of the United Verde Ex-
tension. A sump is now being made,
and after a station has been cut, drift
ing will start east and west. 1t is esti-
mated that the east drift will be run
500 feet in order to tap the ore body
which it is believed will be the extern
sion of that found in the title Daisy.
AS upwards of ten feet daily can be
made it is figured that about 60 days
must elapse before determination can
be made Of the ground east of the
Columbia shaft.

WITH. THE. HAYDEN POLICE
OR THE BOOT[EGCERS' NEMESIS

including Justice Studley and Deputy
Reinhardt motored to Kelvin Inquiry
developed that two men answering the
description of the bootleggers had ar
rived shortly before and were then in
a room at the Southern Hotel Mount
ing the stairs Reinhardt knocked on
the door, It remained closed, but a
low-toned conversation inside was
audible.
"Open the door, or we'll break it in" !"
said Reinhardt.
The door was opened, and the Off
Ger entered. We'll, Kelly" I guess
you've hauled your last carload of
BOOZE" he said to man sitting on the
bed. Kelly grinned ooh don't know
about that" he said, and nonchalant-
ly OF ready to go with the officers.
He and his companion were brought to
Hayden and are being held to answer
to the statutory charge.
Scarcely had the Hayden officers
recovered from this trip, when at 2
o'clock Sunday morning they received
a hurry call from Branaman to come
with all haste and capture some more
sbootlggers. They were requested to
bring a doctor, as the alleged Grimm
ais had met with mishap and one
of them was badly hurt. Accompan-
led by Doctors Norman and Marden,
of Winkelman, they rushed to the
scene, only to find that their presence
as officers Of the law, was superf1u-
fous, althoughgthe physicians We're GER
tainly neededs as a. serious accident
had happened. The party who had
met with the mishap were not boot
leggers but merely joyriders, who car
ried their liquor inside, and were over
loaded at that. They had topped the
long hill near Branaman with their
Ford in low gear. Reaching the sum-
nit level they threw the machine into
high. Their lamps died down and
they failed to see the abrupt curve just
ahead, and drove straight on. The
front wheels went over the bank and
the machine turned over down the hill.
One of the occupants, named Mckay,
of Tucson, was picked up unconscious,
and another Eddie Duboise, of Winkek-
man, was brought to the Hayden hos
pital fatally injured, his death taking
place last Monday.
But the judges adventures were not
yet over. There is an obscure story
of how, in company with the Rein
hardt brothers and Mr.. J. D. Tomlin-
