SENATE DIFFERS |TS APPROVAL IF
 WILSON $ NOTE
rRepublican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-After an other debate on Senator Hitchcock's resolution to have the senate endorse President Wilson's peace note, during which Senator Lodge attacked the German ambassador, Count vor BernF storff, for having made a public state. ment approving it. the senate today again deferred action and will take up the question again tomorrow.
 Senator Lodges open mention of the German envoy's name, which the sen- ator said he knew was contrary to unwritten rules of senate proceedings was the sensation of a speech in which the senator declared that although he aiccepted in full faith President Will sons statement that the note was in no way suggested by nor associated with the peace proposals of the German allies. nevertheless, he believed such statements as the German ambassa- dor's had added to the opinion that the note was timed and designed to aid Germany in making the peace terms she desires
 On the ground that the senate as the only legislative body in the world having I voice in international rela- tons should move slowly and not take any action which might afterward be-

observed by the few officials in close touch with the situation.
 Both in Germany and entente cir cles pessimism over the outlook was expressed. The president, however. already made will be helpful ulti- mately,- regardless of the conse- quences
 The preliminary information re- ceived indicates that the entente note will pay more attention to the presi- dents suggestion that means be pro- vided for preserving peace iE the flu ture than did the reply of tho cen tral powers. which suggested post ponement Of this question until after the present war.
 It Is generally expected that after receipt of the reply of the entente allies President Wilson will com municate again with both sides.
 If the terms of the central powers already have been made known to President Wilson, it is believed they came through AmbassadoF Gerard at Berlin. The German embassy has had no information on the subject late tonight.
 Several days ago it was stated au- thoritatively that Germany was ready, should it be necessary to keep open the read to peace t1 make known confidentially the terms of the central powers to the president. IL also was indicated that Germany further might permit the terms to he transmitted in confidence to the en- tente allies.

NEW YORK. Jan. 3.-The arrest here today by federal officers of Juan T. Burns, consul general at New York for the de facto government in MeXi- co, disclosed an alleged conspiracy in which five Mexicans, including Burns, are charged in three indictments with shipping arms into Mexico in violation of President Wilson's embargo procla- nation of October. 1915. and with evasion of customs regulations.
 According to Assistant United States District Attorney John C. Knox. fed eral agents first became acquainted with the alleged plot last November when 8 package shipped from New York on board the Ward line steam ship Esperanza and manifested as con taining buid5ng material" fell on the dock at Vera Cruz and broke open revealing cartridges as its contents.

AOANSON LAW
 AMENDMENT |S
 TO BE PRESSED
Republican A. P. Leased wlrel

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3.-Railroad legislation desired by President Wiison to supplement the Adamson law is to be pressed in the house without wait ing for action by the senate. Aftey conference with the president today. and while the senate committee was continuing it's hearings on the sub ject, Representative Adamson, chair man Of the house commerce commit tee, announced that within q few days he would introduce and seek the pas sage of bills designed to prevent rail- road employees from striking without giving sixty days notice, and to em- power the president to place tied-up roads in the hands of military author ities in case of public necessity.
 IL had been understood that the pres ident wanted the railroad program completed by amendments to a meas ure now pending in the senate. Mir. Adamson said today. however, that he was tired of waiting for the senate to act They will run on with these hearings for I don't know how long" he added, "and doubt if the members know much more about the subject when the hearings are over than they do now"
 MT Adamson also will press his pro- posed special rule. now in the house rules committee. for immediate considS eration of his resolution to extend the life of the Newlands railway investi- gating committee for one year The life of this committee will expire next Monday unless it is extended. Objec- tion by Representative Rayburn of Texas today blocked unanimous con- f,,Y. J
 Vigorous opposition to the proposed compulsory notice measure from or ganized labor generally is anticipated. It was to fight such proposals that the four railway brotherhoods and the American Federation of Labor repre- sentatives recently allied themselves unofficially.
 Brotherhood officials are expected here within the next few days to tes- tify before the senate committee
 The senate has before it bill passed by the house at the last session to en- large the interstate commerce commis- sion and any house measures easily could be attached to it as amendments. Action on the entire bill in conference then would be prompt. it is argued.
 Judge William L. Chambers of the federal board of mediation and arbi- tration. testified today before the sen ate committee.
 Judge Chambers, without giving his views of the merits of the proposed compulsory arbitration bill, suggested that congress should amend the pres ent arbitration law to empower federal courts to enforce awards under it. One of the chief grievances of railroad em- ployes is that there is not adequate machinery for award enforcement.

GOODYEAR C0. $
 OPERATIONS ARE

That rumors concerning the opera tions of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company in the growing of long staple cotton in the valley, are in many cases distorted and unfounded, was the statement of F. F. Parker of Pasadena, Cal, attorney and business manager for the company. who is in Phoenix to make bis permanent home.
 MT. Parker stated last evening that the Goodyear company is not in the business of growing cotton because it likes it. It has been forced to do so by high prices asked by the growers for an inferior quality of the staple
 The Goodyear Company" said MT Parker, lis after the best cotton ob- tainable, and the best rubber on the market, to put into the best tires made"
 The Salt River valley according to MT. Parker, will have to compete with the Nile district, the South Sea Islands and South America, all of which places are under consideration at the present time. As long as the ranchers CO., operate with the Goodyear Company, and the long staple product is rot al- lowed to deteriorate through the intro duction of short staple cotton, there IS chance that the operations of the company may become more extensive than that of growing the staple.
 The following statement, which teens with interest for the people of the valley, was given out by MT. Par ker:
 The Goodyear Company will oper- ate here through the Southwest Cotton Company, a subsidiary corporation. This company will operate it's own and leased lands for the production of long staple cotton. It will probably also operate gins for our own cotton, il be- ing our primary purpose to grow the best cotton possible and gin it so as to keep the quality up.
 We are not going into the valley on such tremendous proportions as generally reported. This year We hope to crop possible six or seven thousand acres. This acreage will consist of de- veloped land, some outside and some under the Roosevelt Project. and seg~ regated into several districts. IL is our purpose, in a conservative manner. to test this valley as a producer of long staple cotton. Finally, whether or not. this valley is logical place to produce such cotton, will depend not only upon ahe grade but upon the relative eco- Hoinlc conUuOnS as between this sec tion, the Nile and other localities cap able of producing a grade of cotton suitable for high class tire consump- tion.
 For land owners to capitalize their lands on 50 cent cotton is the height Of poor judgment Such discount of the future measured by fhe present is wholly unsound, economically and if carried on generally will result in driv- ing the industry from this section. The average price of this staple for ten years has been 20 cents. Present con dltions are abnormal and cannot ob- tam over any very considerable pc riod- When the price reaches normal. the Salt River valley must come into direct competition with other sections and the price of land, labor and other

 The above pair of messages over The Republicans Associated Press Leased wire last night, exposed a democratic trlck to bring pressure to bear on the state supreme court, which today hears the mandamus case of Campbell versus Hunt, and practically decides which of the two is to be the de facto governor of this state until the contest lis legally settled.
 Early in the evening, democratic politicians carefully informed some re- publicans that Senator Mark Smith was dying in Washington The re- publicans expressed deep sympathy.
 Then the democrats again circulated the report of Senator smiths grave illness, and added a characteristic touch by making a few remarks about who would appoint his successor Hunt or Campbell" It was cunning lv brought to the attention of the re- publicans that in the event the su- preme court today decides in favor of Tom Campbell. he could place a repub- lican senator in Washington from Ar ! izona
 The Republican accepted the story as of little worth, and. to be sure of , its ground, asked the Associated Press to discover the senator's real condi- tion.
 The circulation of the report that the senator was dying. is believed to have had as its purpose, the bringing ! down of q storm of democratic infll- ! ence on the supreme court. which to- 1 day has practically to decide which claimant. Campbell or Hunt. is to be ! governor of Arizona until the case is settled in the courts
 With two executive offices doing i business in the capital of Arizona. the combatants awaiting the decision of the supreme court after this morn ing's hearing. and with practically no ! developments in the inspection the gubernatorial contest threatened to drop into the Nnocuous yesterday, save for the Mark Smith episode. Breathless interest will be the emo- tiOn of the Dartisans this morning however, when attorneys for Camp ] bell present to the supreme court their | petition for an order compelling G. | Hunt to get out of the suite of rooms 1 he has occupied in the state house i for the past five years. The attorneys i for tEe ex-governor will be present to 1 oppose the issuance of such an order. l and will be prepared to make a stub i born fight, for they were supplied with copies of the briefs of the plain 1 tiff forty -eight hours prior to the i hearing. This was in accordance with the stipulation with which Campbell sought an election certifi- cate from Hunt.
 Next in interest will be the inspec- tion of the ballots. which, most of the officials agree will be finished Satur- day night. Yesterday, the inspectors of Beard ?, finished Pinal and started on Santa cruz. Two big Hunt coun- tis were begun by the other boards. No. 1 getting Cochise and No. } drawing G:la.

Despite the assertion of Captain Tate of the detective depart ment that this man had been cleared of all suspicion, two men were sent to his hotel late today to take his finger prints for comparison with those found in Miss Colbert's apartment. The result of the comparison was not made known.
 It was reported but not confirmed, that detectives were awaiting ony Identification of the suspected man by sales girls Who are said to have sold him large quantities of perfume pos sessing the same odor as that which scented the mans shirt found in Miss Colbert's apartment. The police say the man under surveillance has a habit of saturating his clothing with perfume and that its odor corre- spends with that on the shirt.
 The man in question is said to be about middle aged and to have in- herited nearly million dollars from his father. He is well known in many cities throughout the country and scores. of his friends are reported to have come to his aid. Captain Tate still adheres to his theory that the murder was committed by a deneg crate and declares that the man from the interior of the state has given d satisfactory explanation of his whereabouts last Friday when the crime is believed to have occurred.
 A dozen or more young men, some prominent, who were known to 1avo been acquainted with Miss Colbert. were questioned, by the detectives to- day but it was said that none of them could throw any light upon the mystery.

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Coincident with the receipt here today of con fidential advices giving the broad outlines of the entente reply tO President Wilson's note proposing 8 discussion of peace terms. Colonel f.. NJ. House. the presidents friend and adviser, arrived at the White House. The coloners last visit was followed by the dispatch of the president $ note.
 At the same time press dispatches from London told of "a speech by Count Julius Andrassy. former pre- mier of Hungary. stating that the central powers had given or would give President Wilson a statement of their peace terms and that the en- tente allies could obtain them from him
 Officials at the White House and the state department would not dis cuss these developments further than to say definitely that no further move on the part of the. American government would be determined un- til the entente reply was received. It was said that the president still has his mind open on the question.
 It was not disclosed whether the administration considers that the uIr- favorable action of the entente has left the way open for the confidential exchange of terms between the op- posing governments of nations. In view of the delicate nature of the negotiations, extreme secrecy Is being
