force but pursued them and captured a considerable length of German trenches in doing so, killed more than 200 Germans.
 On the Chemin des Danes also the Germans launched yesterday a number of attacks, some of which resulted in most desperate engagements. In the neighborhood of La Royere the ground was covered with German bodies while the only success the Germans achieved was to gain possession of a short section of a French front trench.
 The intensity of the airmens actiV- ities on the French front is indica ted in the weeks record of the American 1.afovette squadron from June 10 to 16. F'ifty-four of their airpianes patrolled over the German lines and fought nine air battles, of which Ad- jutant Raoul Lufbery. Edwin Parsons and Sergeant Robert Soubiran each fought two, and Stephen Bigelow Sergeant Walter Lowell. and Thomas Hewitt each fought one.
 Adjutant Lufbery brought down enc of his opponents, winning his tenth victory, while two other German ma chimes were severely damaged Luf- bery is mentioned in a late army or der as "a marvellous fighting pilot who is a living example of audacity coolness, and devotion to his squad rilla."

WILLIAMS FIRE DESTR0YSC|TY
 ELECTRIC WORKS
Especial to Teh RepubIican)

WILLIAMS, AriZ., June 23. Fire | rom an unknown cause this morning entirely destroyed tlle electric light and
 water plant at this place and has left
 the town without lighting facilities eX- cept such IS may be provided by the sfna l private plant of a lumber com pany. Efforts are being made to have
 tlls plant connected with the wires winch remain of the plant destroyed. The building and n.,.u~lnery de-
 stroyed were the power station, which was near the Santa Fe depot two en- elnes, generators, transformers anc other electrical appliances. The loss is considerable. The plant Is owned by Chicago parties.
 Word of the fire was received in
 Phoenix yesterday morning in a tele-
 phone message from Mayor Reid of Williams to r. A. Jones, chairman of , the state corporation commission The Chicago owners of the des:royeu plan. could not be reached immediately to ald In giving the town whatever cleo ] tric light service possible and the local manager declined to assume authority 1 in the emergency The town is with
 out street lights and ouner genera, l lighting
 The Saginaw and Manistee lumber  plant at Williams has a small electric
 light plant, Mayor Reid informs Com
 missioner Jones and the owners have
 consented to run the plant nights ana furnish a night load if the clty will in stall transformers and will permit the wires of the city company to be used. The state corporation commission had been making an inventory of the Wii-
 Hams electric light and water plant to ascertain it's physical value This was i started two months ago at the instance of the city of Williams which had con,- plained of the service and was with i view of bonding the city to purchase
 the plant from the Chicago owners. Chairman Jones of the commission was in Williams about a month ago in re- gard to this inventory and an agree ment practically had been reached as to the price at which the plant would be transferred
 In the present emergency the pres | ence of Chairman Jones is desired in ] Williams to assist the city in obtaining immediate electrc lght and water ser
 vice. MT. Jones left Phoenix last nign,

 over which it finally spread It was not his purpose to engage in railroad building except so far as it might pc incidental to mining
 But his plans developed rapidly, and he went east and interested in the project D. M. Ferry and W. A. Bowen. the seed men of Detroit: Simon J. Murphy, a Detroit capitalist; N. K. Fairbank and D. B. Robinson then president of the Santa Fe. It was then that the plan of extending the road from Ash Fork as far south, at least, as Phoenix, was formed and the company was organized with Mr Robinson it's first president and Mir Murphy, secretary treasurer.
 In 1892, rapid progress under the urging of MT. Murphy was made in the construction of that road though it is said that that year not another United States. The road reached Phoenix the spring of the following year. In the meantime, Diamond Joe Reynolds having died, the Con- gross Gold Mine & Milling company was formed, under the presidency of E.. B. Gage, with all or most of the associates of MT. Murphy in the rail- road interested in it.
 Without relaxing his interest in mining, MT. Murphy planned an ex- tension of the road, under the name of the Phoenix & Eastern, southeast to connection with the Santa Fe system at Deming or Silver City and also with the Arizona & New Mexico, then the property of the Santa, with a northern terminus at Benson Work was pushed rapidly on the Phoenix x Eastern, and at the same time to meet the needs of the various mining properties in which Mir. Murphy and his associates were interested in Yavapai county, the Poland Exten- sion and the Bradshaw Extension were begun and finished. Also about this time the Arizona & California was undertaken; with the Phoenix 6 Eastern that was to give the Santa Fe a through line by the way of 1 Phoenix to the coast.
 But before this was finished, F. H. Hartman, head of the Southern Pa 1 cific and the Union Pacific, having secured representation in the Santa i Fe directorate, forced a surrender of the Phoenix & Eastern and the Ari- zona & New Mexico in exchange for ! the Eureka, Cal, line and other ] Southern Pacific properties. This l ended a stubborn flght between the l Santa F'e and Southefn Pacific over a right -of-way through the Box Can yon of the Gila. The former had won i the fight in the interior department. | This deal figured extensively in the 1 government antitrust proceedings i some years later.
 Before this MT. Murphy had secured i the organization of the Development l Company of America, which included many of his associates in other en- 1 terprises and in which the Santa Fe was well represented. The prop =, e -+rc ~d h-r '+ inc'pded tho various Yavapai county mines, the l Silver Bell properties, afterwaI d known as the Imperial Copper com pany; the consolidated Tombstone
Arizona republican., 1917-06-24

mines, under the title of the Tomb stone Consolidated Mining & Milling company; the Christmas mines, and many others.
 MT. Murphy had also secured from the Mexican government a conces sion embracing a harbor on the Gulf of California, and a railroad was planned for an extension of the MUr- phy railroad system to that harbor by the way of Red Rock and Silver Bell.
 Two things interevened to prevent the fulfillment of that plan. One was the panic of 1907, which involved the development company in financial diff ficulties, and later, unrest in Mexico.
 During these years, MT. Murphy. had become interested in the Prescott Ma tional bank, and he became the head of the reorganization of the Phoenix National bank. which had been formed
Arizona republican., 1917-06-24

by James A. Fleming a couple of years before. He also organized the Com mercial Trust company of Prescott He was also joint owner with Dr. George w. Vickers of The Arizona Republican which they sold in 1909.
 Fifteen years ago he was given a warning of the manner in which he was 10 die. He became a victim of locomotor ataxia, and on the recor- mendation of his physician he went Ito Europe, where he spent several months. The rest had uone hlm so much good that he resumed his null tifarious duties with his old-time energy, and he pursued them to com pletion through their later tangled state until year ago, when he had the satisfaction of knowing that his life ork was being well rounded out.
 Another. enterprise of Mir. Murphy which received a great deal of his
