DECLARE VILLA AMI FORCE |S MOVING
 NORTH ID JUAREz
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

FL PASO, June 27.-Francisco Villa was at Villa Ahumada, S5 miles south of JuareZ late today with a force of fifteen hundred men and was moving toward Juarez, according to informa tion received by government agents here tonight. Residents of Juarez were much concerned tonight because of Villas reported movement north ward as they fear he may attempt to capture the border town. Many strange faces have appeared in Jua- reg during the past two days and several have been recognized as for mer followers of Villa.
 The fact that Villa had moved from TerraZas station to Villa Ahumada, a distance of 100 miles, since last night was taken here to indicate he was moving his command on trains. Train service has been suspended between Juarez and Chihuahua City because of Villas activities and two railroad bridges were reported to have been burned south of TerraZas. The rail- road telegraph line was left open. however. A message signed Francis co Villa was received in Juarez last night from Terrazas station inviting General Jose Murguia to come out and fight and was said to have been received over the telegraph line This was a favorite trick of Villas in the past.

WILEY [. IJONES CLAIMS COURSE
 |S CONSISTENT

Contending that the injunction suit should be defended by an attorney not obligated by the prosecuting duties inn posed upon the attorney general, Attor ney General Wiley E. Jones refused to defend Secretary of State Sidney r. OS- born when that official made the de- mand upon him in the matter per- taining to the hearing before Judge Stanford yesterday.
 Attorney General Jones claimed he could not consistently serve as Secre- tary Osborns counsel in the case of the State versus that official, in which the plaintiff/seeks to restrain the secretary from placing the referendum on the minimum wage for women on the off cial ballot.
 The dialogue between the state off cials was the chief feature of the hear ing before Judge Stanford, which was continued until July on agreement of the many attorneys who have been brought into the case.
 Upon the refusal of the attorney gen. eral to represent him. the secretary of state stated that Judge Barnum, whom he had personally employed, would appear for him. The Merchants & Manufacturers association which or ganiZation is accused of fraud in ob- taining signatures to the petition by the plaintiff will be represented by Bullard X Jacobs. Judge Barnum and MT. Bullard came to an under standing in the court room yesterday that MT. Bullard was to act solely for the business organizations and not represent Secretary Osborn
 The labor organizations brought the suit through their attorneys. Niles X Shepherd, and F. C. Struckmeyer was
 
 usual interest has been made manifest in the matter and charges of fraud and misrepresentation have been widely alleged by the labor organiza- tions
 The correspondence between the at torney general and secretary of state has furnished bit of political gossip. The reply of the former in answer to the latter's request to represent him was practically identical with his court statement It follows:
 Hon. Sidney P. Osborn Secretary of
 State:
 Dear Sir: I write you in response to your communication to me an nouncing that an injunction suit has been brought against you as secretary of state and temporary restraining order issued therein against your placing upon the official voting ballot the title and number of the measure well known as the 'Womans Mini mum Wage law, passed. by the last legislature. and also against the print ing of the title and text of said meas ure in the publicity pamphlet for cir culation in the state before the next election, under the referendum pro- visions as a referred measure.

had sworn his love for her on d Bible. Miss Lusk continued in the letter that she had threatened to end all if the doctor didn't love her
 Dr. Davies testified that Miss Lusk had told him that Dr. Roberts had said he did not love his wife and promised to tell her before June 15 of his friendship for the school teacher.
 When he did not tell by that date Miss Lusk concluded that Roberts was deceiving both women, Dr. Davies continued. Miss Lusk, he said fur ther, had told him that Mrs Rob erts had eXasperated her into shoot ing when she said that Dr. Roberts had described Miss Lusk as an old fool that was chasing him. "She called me such names that I could not do anything but shoot her. Miss Lusk continued to Dr. Davies, he said.
 Chief of Police Mckay testified that Miss Lusk had said at the hospital she was sorry for what she had done. Hernandez and General Francisco Gonzalez came to Juarez on the last train from Chihuahua City and are now living in Fl Paso.
 Rumors that General Francisco Murguia and his staff had been cap tured in Zacatecas by rebels and that Torreon had been captured by Marce- To CaraVoS were not confirmed to- night.

by the legislature reflect the wishes of the people of the state: and, regard less of the method of attack we have uniformly assumed, and have asSidu- ously defended the constitutionality and entire legality of every statute which the Arizona legislature as the mouthpiece of the people, have in proper legal manner incorporated into Arizonas laws. For this department to abandon that position, as I view it, would be to desert the only proper, consistent and considerable position which we can take in the premises, unless a referendum has been regu- larly called, untainted by fraud and other unlawful acts, to withhold it's operation.
 Much interest has been manifested in the matter of the referendum of this measure. The activities of those desiring to defeat said law through the referendum have disclosed grave accusations, which this department cannot ignore There is one instance of an accused being held to answer before the superior court. Instances of fraud and false representations in efforts to procure a referendum are freely charged and the present situa- tion is such that the attorney general may be called upon to aid in the pros ecution of all offenders disclosed in the case. l cannot take an incon- Sstent position in the matter. Should appear to answer in the said suit, I would be placed in the position of de- lending and condoning all the activ- ites put forth to bring about said ref erendum. including the offenses charged to have been committed offenses which, under the law, it is my solemn duty to prosecute. That duty must be fearlessly performed if necessary.
 Having thus plainly stated my view of my duty in the matter 1 may sug- gest that the friends of the referen- dunn of this measure will readily see the propriety of the injunction suit being defended by an attorney who is not obligated by the prosecuting duties which the law at present inn poses on me. The advocates of ref erendum in this measure should have their own attorney to defend this in- junction suit, and not the attorney general
 Therefore, l would suggest that the unfortunate condition surrounding this measure has been brought about by no fault of yours or mine, and to the end that all the facts may be brought out, l think 1t proper that you should bring this matter before the advocates of it's referendum with the request that they instruct their attorney to defend said injunction suit. I may suggest further that if the advocates of its referendum see fit, their coun- sel may intervene in this case, and as such interference, represent the op- ponents of the minimum wage meas ure.
 Either of the foregoing will be just and fair to both you and myself offi- cially and also permit an impartial presentment of the matter
 Very respectfully,
 tSigned) WILEY F. JONES,
 Attorney General.
