THE METAL MARKET

Copper continues strong and the market is moderately active. Lake is 35 3-4 to 36 IA cents and electrolyt- ic is 36 12 to 37 cents a pound for i'm mediate shipments. April, May and June copper is selling at 34 1-2 to B IA cents, third quarter at 32 to g 1-2 cents and contracts for October November and December delivery are understood to have been closed re- gently at 30 1-2 cents pound.
 Exports are being maintained at the rate of a little more than 100000 daily. Domestic consumption is at top volume of the war period. Con- sum CTS are continuing to receive new orders as rapidly as old ones are com pleted, as the amount of copper pur- chased recently for third quarter de- livery constitutes a considerable ton mage.
 Nothing but sudden ending of the European war is likely to bring about any material recession in copper prices. Consumptive demand exceeds production and will so long as the war lasts. The return of peace probably will witness a decline in the price of copper to 20 cents or whereabouts; but there is every indication that af- ter the war industrial requirements will be sufficiently heavy to main tain the market at approximately a 20-cent level for very long period. At the moment severe weather in the northwest and labor troubles in the refining centers of the east are re- production somewhat and they may exert an influence to force prices somewhat higher temporarily.

constitutional. This was the bill the supervisors of both counties had ask ed to have disapproved.
 House bill IFS, the general appro- priation bill, has four subdivisions and three sections vetoed. Subdivis- ions 2S-31 inclusive, relating to the board of control, are vetoed because bill 115 abolished the board of con- trol itself. Section 32 for the re- lief of the heirs of Leo Cloud, cleo trocuted at Tucson at the university, is vetoed because it is unconstituti- onal and beyond the scope of the gen. eral appropriation bill. Section 43, providing that the proceeds from ex- perimental farms shall be paid into the general fund is vetoed because House bill 193 provides for the same thing. Section 49, providing for ex- penses in sending a delegate to the conference for uniformity in state leg islation is vetoed because there is a discrepancy making the section uncer- tain.

HART MAKES A
 VIGOROUS DENIAL

Interest in the contest case of G. w P. Hunt vs. Thos. E. Campbell has centered this week around Douglas Precinct No. 1, where it was alleg ed that fraud and corruption prevail ed; members of the election board had been under the influence of liquor ballots originally marked for Camp bell had been changed to Hunt; that the members of the Election Board were not residents of the election precinct, and that the ballots had been left unguarded.
 l Hal H. Hart, the Douglas witness whose testimony in the Hunt Camp bell contest has been awaited with so much interest, was the center of at traction in the hearing Tuesday before Judge Stanford. Hart was acting in spector in Douglas precinct 1, and is the official accused of having been left alone with the ballot box during the progress of the count. Hart de nied that. he had been left alone as charged in spite of the fact that Ser geant Moore, of the Douglas police, has said that he so found Hart on the night of election. Hart alleged that Hughes Carr, Thiel detective, had frequently conferred with him and had presented to him in the of flee of Boyle and Pickett, series of statements denouncing Art Pearson, another election official in the pre- cinct. He directly charged he had been offered enough to put him on easy street" if he, Hart, would help to throw the precinct against Hunt He said the offer finally grew to $15,- 900 proportions.
 Hart denied the drinking charges which have been freely made and de- nied the conversation with assistant County Attorney Bruce Stephenson, which Stephenson said he had with Hart.
 Under cross examination Hart said he had lost his place with the Santa Fe railroad for violation of rule G, which prohibits getting drunk while on duty.
 When Hart was asked about his vis- it to Stephenson and his alleged con- fession that he had changed AT Cam pbell ballots to votes for Hunt, the witness dramatically exclaimed:
 ''If Bruce Stephenson said that, it is the blackest lie ever between man and God"
 Hart was on the stand at adjourn ment.
 Attorney Ives, chief counsel for form CT Governor Hunt, complained in the court hearing that detectives are shadowing principals in the contest and he recounted a personal encoun- ter between Attorney Ladd and one of them. George Walters, one of the election board officials in Douglas, was recalled to the stand said that he knew of no way to allow voter to change a ballot otherwise than by erasureS. Attorney Bullard asked him if he did not know that three bal lots are provided for each voter in case one is spoiled and the attorney charged that so gross had been the violation of the law in this respect alone that it was sufficient to war rant the throwing out of the 45 altered ballots in the precinct if for no other reason.

LAST BATCH BILLS SENT ID STATE
 SECRETARY

PHOENIX, March 21 1.-Gov. Camp bell last night finished the labors which he has been engaged in ever since the legislature adjourned of passing upon bills passed in the ses- sion. In the final hours he disap- proved some measures in whole or in part and sent to the secretary of state, without his signature, long list of bills of which he did not ap- prove in full, out of which were, in the main, worthy and which will be- come laws without his signature.
 The governor stated that he par ticularly objects to having bills for the relief of people who are entitled to compensation but who have not ap piled for relief until so late in the ses- sion it becomes necessary to use the emergency clause to get their justly due money paid. All such bills he did not sign.
 There is one bill of which I hear tily approve in the main,' said Cover nor Campbell, which I did not sign. That is the bill to enable the national guard of Arizona to conform with fed eral requirements and thus draw com pensation under the federal act of last June, but there is an effort in that bill on the part of the adjutant- general to perpetuate himself in of flee of which strongly disapprove and so I did not sign it. I believe that the attorney-general will find some way to frustrate this self-per- petuation plan in the bill"

Though there is 'honor among thieves" there is little among bootleg gers. This was proven in Tucson one day last week when three bootleggers whose supply had run low, held up a brother in the same fraternity and relieved him of a machine load of the liquor. The victim "roared' so loud about the outrage" that the Tucson police heard of the affair and are in- vestigating.
