Ymuiden reports that Commander
Bochm of the V-69 was not killed as
at first believed but the death of
Captain Schultz is confirmed. The
other officers killed were Lieutenants
Fasut and Hanover. The V-69 is the
flagship of flotilla of twelve YES
sells.
According to a Hague report to the
Exchange Telegraph company, two
German ships were sunk and three
others badly damaged in the North
sea fight.
Reports from Ymuiden received by
Reuters Telegram company at Ans
terdam say that German torpedo
boats last night attempted to leave
Zeebrugge to avoid the ice. which
was very thick. They We're imme
diately attacked by large British
squadron. The action opened at
short range and early in the fight
the bridge of the German destroyer
V-69 was swept away by a direct
hit, the commander and two other
officers being killed
was then hit by another British
shell which knocked the funnel flat
on the deck. Still another shell put
hole in the fore part of the YES
sci. Her guns appear not to have
been damaged. The crew of the v
96 numbered about sixty. 1t would
| appear from the statements of the
men that seven other German vessels
were sunk. The V-69 belonged to
| the home fleet.

WOODS FIGURES CONCEDE No
COUNTY To CAMPBELL IN THE
INSPECTION Of THE BALLOTS

Much less reasonable than the repub
lican figures are those of Chief Inspec
tor Homer R. Wood, revealed at last
through the columns of a radical pro-
Hunt paper in Prescott, and lately re-
ceived in this city. Not single coun-
ty, according to these figures, gave
Campbell any gain in the inspection-a
wallop at the law of averages that
speaks pretty poorly for the three hun
dred old election boards that handled
the counting of ballots November Z.
That Hunt should have gained in ev-
cry county is considered ridiculous by
even some of the former governors
most warm supporters.
The Republican, in common with
most of the newspapers of Arizona. has
been bitterly abused because it did not
print tabulations emanating from the
Hunt camp If the protagonists of
Hunt knew just how often The Repub-
lican-and several other papers-gave
the Hunt inspectors an opportunity to
publish their figures-any figures. in

in the various counties There are as
many classes of counties as there are
counties and Mr.. Hall discovered that
in some of the lower class counties the
salaries were higher than in counties
having much greater assessed valua-
ton. Mr.. Winsor said that the county
salary system of Arizona was a dis
grace. Out of it all came a reference
Of the Rutherford bill back to the com
mittee on counties and county boun-
daries with instructions to the commit
tee to prepare a uniform or graded
bill, providing salaries for the various
counties 1t seemed to be the belief of
members that there would result a gen.
eral increase of salaries.
More than the Rutherford bill Mr.
Mattox of Navajo probably contrib
uted to this action by the introduction
of bill yesterday making a general
increase of salaries: clerks of superior
courts in counties of the eleventh class
from $1,000 to $500; deputy clerks,
from SIS a month to s100: sheriffs,
s2,4O0 to $4,000 and an increase of the

deputies from SIS to 800 a month. So

IN SANTA CLARA CANYON

Ell PASO. Texas Jan. 23.-Villa has
moved with a large body of men into
the Santa Clara Canyon. a former
haunt, which was explored by PERISH
ing's men early last summer, accord
ing to a report received here tonight
by government agents. The canyon is
so miles in bee line over the noun
tains southeast of Ell Vale.
Passengers arriving in JuareZ to-
night from Chihuahua City said also
that five hundred rebels were reported
at San Miguel de Babicora, thirty five
miles west of Ell Vale, which was TAX
en- here as additional proof that Villa
intends to dispute the possession of
the territory vacated by Pershing with
the CarranZa troops.
A man just out of Parral said the
rebels were active in the outskirts of
that town and were expected to make
an attack at any time.
The cutting of the railway line be-
low Ortiz about 35 miles below Chi
huahua City, was confirmed by the
passengers.
Lieutenant Colonel Buclon, late chief
of staff for Gerenal Francisco Con
zales who was superseded in the COM
mand of Juarez by General Jose
Murguia, has been arrested in Juarez
and ordered to Chihuahua City for
trial, it was learned here tonight.
Colonel Buclon resigned his commits
sion to go into business in civil lines
after the recent military change. The
cause of his arrest has not been made
public.
A rumor that Carranza had been as
sassinated spread through Ell Paso to-
night, but was denounced as absurd
by CarranZa officials. Members of the
Villa junta asserted that the report
was received through reliable sources.

IN NORTH SEA
Continued from Page One)

The most important announcement
concerning the fighting in any of the
war zones is that issued by the Ber-
lin war office, which says the Bull
earians in northern Dobrudja have
crossed the southern estuary of the
Danube near Tultcha and have main
tanned themselves on the north bank
against n Russian attack. This brings
the invaders closer to the Bessarabian
frontier. Elsewhere in Rumania
there has been only small isolated
engagements by outposts.
On the Russian front in the regions
of Lake Kuggerion and near Kahn
zem in the riga sector, the Germans
have delivered attacks against the
Russians. Both attacks were re-
pulsed, the latter with neavy casu-
alties according to Petrograd. In
Volhynia the Germans successfully
carried out trench raids against the
Russians.
The fighting fronts in France and
the Austro-Italian theater continue
to witness bombardments spirited at
some places, and small engagements
German airplanes have dropped
bombs on Montdider, France. Three
airplanes have been brought down by
French guns, two of them during an
