Marvellous Electric Power.

The tremendous. almost inconcelv-
able possibilities OF electric power are
strikingly brought out In a giant mo-
tor recently built for use in Pennsyl-
vania steel mills. This motor ts the
biggest In the world. It develops TO-
600 horse power. While the motor Is
OF an impressive bulk, IL could be cas-
lily Enclosed In a medium sized room.
Some idea Of the concentrated EN-
cheney OF electric power IL realized
when one thinks Of how many acres
would be covered by the $4,000 horses
whose work equivalent 1t can tlreless-
" produce.

FINDINGS OF REED TOOREVOLUT|ONARY
 SAY 0|L PRODUCERS
Republican A. p. Leased WIre1

HOUSTON, Tex, Dec. 22.-That the findings of Werner z. Reed, of the federal mediation commission, and personal representative of President Wilson, are too revolutionary in their nature and of such serious moment as to demand the attention of all oper- ators is the substance of a statement given out tonight by the committee representing the oil producers of Texas and Louisiana involved in the strike of oil workers.
 Upon that grounds the committee petitioned MT. Reed for postponement of definite action. This was granted the operators and they have called a meeting for all those interested in the oil and gas industry of Texas and Louisiana which will be held January ?. They have until January to act.
 The official statement of the com mittee of oil and gas operators is in part as follows:
 "A meeting of the oil producers was held Friday to consider the findings of MT. Reed, labor commissioner, with reference to the recent strike of the oil field workers. It was decided that the proposed findings of MT. Reed were so revolutionary in their nature and of such serious moment to the entire oil and gas producing busi- ness of Texas and Louisiana that the few producers at this meeting should not assume the responsibility of acting | on MT. Reeds findings.

ARIZZ1onA ARIZ1a,!...SSlI SUPREME COURT UNANIMOUSLY FINDS FOR
 DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE

George W. P. Hunt is again gov ernor of Arizona by the grace of the supreme court which yesterday morn ing handed down an opinion in the long contest, seating him in the exc cutive chambers. The case was pre- scented to the court last October and almost daily since the latter part of that month the decision has been ex- pected. Hardly day has passed on which friends of Governor Hunt have not forecast the handing down of the opinion and at the same time have forecast the character of it. In large numbers former office holders under Governor Hunt have congregated from all parts of the state in expectation of a decision favorable to their former chief and at various times it has been reported that some of them had all ready applied to surety companies for their bonds.
 The decision was announced at 9:45 o'clock yesterday morning. The su- preme court room was empty when Chief Justice Franklin, followed by Justices Ross and Cunningham and Clerk Clay Leonard entered. The justices were seated and the chief justice merely announced that the judgment of the trial court in Hunt vs. Campbell had been reversed and judgment had been ordered for the contestant. That was all. Soon after that the voluminous opinion and Jus tice Ross briefly concurring opinion were given to the public.
 Within half an hour the news that the contest had been decided had spread over the town and wherever 1T the country communication could be established by telephone or telegraph

Not only are the Italian lines holding in the Monte Asolone region on the northern front where a threatening salient was driven in them early last week, but considerable progress has been made toward restoring the orig inal position. This process, begun by the Italians on Thursday was contin- ued on Friday, the Rome war office re- porting the recapture of further ground in the hotly disputed area.
 The Austro- German command evil dently had in mind the expansion of the Asolone wedge in way further to imperial the entire Monte Grappa posi- tion to the east, the Italian bulwark against the intended drive into the plains and this possibility still remains The Italians. however, have negatived much of the enemy advantage and even the German accounts of the fighting concede that for the present the aggressive is on the Italian side, with the Asolone heights the objective of repeated attacks.
 There has been no fighting of conse- quence i'll any of the other-w areas, military activities being at low ebb everywhere else. Even the artillery en- agreements along the French front ap- pear to have lessened in intensity and there has been no indication of a re- vival of the infantry-activity in Upper Alsace, where a German demonstration on Friday gave the enemy temporary advantage which was quickly wiped out by the aggressive French reaction
 In Russia the strife for control is as- stunning broader aspects. The apparent qualification of the Cossack movement in Southern Russia seems to be giving the opposition to the Bol- sheVlki firmer hold on that territory The petrograd commissioners them selves are considerably worried by the spread of the Separatist movement which prospectively is cutting huge slices off Russian territory not only in the direction of Ukraine and the Don region, but in various other quarters Evidence of this appears in their send ing emissaries to the numerous af- fected districts in an effort to line them up again in support of the Bol- sheviki regime at Petrograd.
 The status of the Russian peace ne- gotlatIons continues uncertain. Reiter. ated reports are coming out of Petro. grad that the negotiations were broker orr because of the objectionable nature or the German terms and that the Rus. sian representatives have left Brest.

It issued this statement:
 "The department of state is in formed that certain newspapers in Mexico are reproducing articles re- gently published in the United States to the effect that this government is making preparations to cope with dis turbances in the Tampico oil district and that American forces are held in readiness for that purpose.

ALLEGED GERMAN SPY SHOT

advertisements clipped from New York papers and his clothing and shirt were marked with the names of New York clothing stores.
 Feige had been seen in the vicinity of the outpost station all day today with camera in his hand. He was warned away from the river front by the patrols. He then approached two Texas rangers and asked them to aid him to cross to Mexico. They told him he would have to get a passport before he could cross. He answered that he wanted to cross to Mexico to take some pictures and said he was harmelss and was making the pictures for his own personal use. He was said to have had a bank book in his pocket showing large sums deposited to his credit in eastern banks. He also had drawings which werey believed by se- cret service officers here to be dia- grams of eastern industrial plants.
 An effort is now being made to To- cate two men who had been seen in company with the German here sev- eral days ago. Government officials stated tonight there was no doubt that the man was German spy who was attempting to cross to Mexico to deliver information to the head of the German secret service there for transmission to Germany,

FLYNN WILL QUIT SECRET SERVICE ID
 HALT BREAK-D DOWN
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Dec 22.-William J. Flynn announced here tonight that he has resigned as chief of the United States secret service.
 MT. Flynn said he had offered his resignation last November but had been asked to reconsider it. Upon advice of his physician. howeNfr, and the ur- gent request of his family, he had def initely decided to retire, he said. He will leave office December 3l.
 There have been persistent rumors that Mayor elect John r. Hylan had requested Chief Flynn to become police commissioner of New York on January 1 as successor to Arthur Woods. Mir. Flynn would neither deny nor affirm that he would become the head of New Works police force under Hylan. He said. however, that the police commis- sionership of New York has not been in his mind at the time his resignation was filed.
 Flynn has been with the secret ser vice twenty years and has been work ina night and day since the United States entered the war. He said he had been told by his physician that unless he took a long rest immediately he would have a break down from which there would be no recovery. This was the sole reason for his retirement, he declared.

ing fourteen days for a rehearing is applicable in this case, has not been agreed upon by lawyers.
 It is understood by attorneys that the opinion in the form delivered car ries with it a mandate to the superior court to issue d judgment to conform to the opinion and that the superior court will have fourteen days in which to announce such a judgment.
 As soon as it was learned that the opinion of the supreme court had been handed down the question of resign ing became an acute one to the ap- pointees of Governor Campbell. The status of Governor Hunt was still that of a private citizen and it was decided that it ould be better to await the arrival of Governor Campbell today. A meeting of his appointees will be held today after which the resigna- tions of all will probably be rendered him.
 The news that Governor Campbell has been busted from office was gen. erally received with regret, by dem ocrats as well as republicans and 1t was the sentiment of both democrats and republicans that he had been i'm measuraply strengthened politically. That the cost of the inspection had been assessed against him as we'll as his own costs in the case stiffened the sentiment in his favor. It was pointed out that he had been elected so far as could be determined by the election machinery. When his title to his office had been attacked he had | been compelled to defend. That was duty he owed not alone to himself but to an apparent majority of the voters at the polls.
