life working in the interest of chill
dren, at one time president of the

DENIAL PASHA "EXPLAINS"
PALESTINE OUTRAGES.
1.81

Military Government of Palestine
Says Population Was Removed
To Save 1t from BOmbard-
ment from Sea and Air.
The outrages against the Jews
in Palestine, organized by Djemal
Pasha, the Turkish Military Gov
ernor, are explained by him, as
was expected, as having been actu-
ated by the humane motive of saw
ing the Jews of Jaffa and the colo
MES from the impending perils Of
bombardment by the British fleet
and aviators, and removing them
to places of safety. This excuse,
the tenor of which was predicted
by the Zionists, was made by him
in statement to the Wolff agency
on May 30th, which for some un-
explained reason has not been ca
bled to America. In the same
statement, which came into the
possession of the Provisional Zion
list Committee today, Djemal Pa
sha absolutely denies every charge
of cruelty in carrying out the
"evacuation" and asserts that he
will ask the Spanish, Austrian
and German consuls to inspect
every place where these outrages
are said to have occurred. He
says that he will also ask the Chief
Rabbi of Jerusalem to make an Of
fetal report on the situation and
also invite three representatives of
the German Jews to personally
convince themselves that nothing
was destroyed in Jaffa: Tel-Aviv,
the modern suburb of that city, or
in any of the colonies.

OLD MURDER CASE

KINGMAN, Aug. 20.-A complaint
was sworn out in the justice court
this week by Mrs. Dick Bennett, an
Indian squaw, against Jim Bennett,
another Indian and also brother-in-
law, charging him with the larceny
of the entire estate of horses, burros
and farm of her husband. The case
is rather complicated one and prom
ises to bring forth nearly all the
members of the Wallapai tribe as wit
nesses for one side or the other
Mrs. Dick Bennett was the wife of
Charles Spencer, cattleman and from
tiersman of the early days of Mohave
county, and the mother of Sam and
Mamie Spencer, all of whom were
well known to all of the early settlers
of this section.
The name of Spencer brings to
mind his tragic death some twenty
odd years ago, which has been told
and retold by the old timers here. He
and his partner, Charles Cohen had
2 controversy over their business
transactions and going out horseback
on the range, the quarrel was re
newed and they dismounted to fight
it out. They fought until both fell
exhausted and Cohen was fortunate
or unfortunate enough to come to
first and he shot and killed Spencer
Cohen was arrested and given a
trial, at which he was freed, as him
self and Spencer were alone and his
testimony was the full evidence of
the trial. Cohen sold his cattle in
terests and left this county for Cali.

NO INDUSTRIES Elk
EMPT FIRST DRAFT

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. "a
Provost Marshal Crowder today is
sued the following statement:
In response to inquiries from many
district boards, the secretary of war
directs that the following information
be furnished district boards: First:
The president will not at this time
make any determination of what in
dustries are to be considered neces-
sary to the maintenance of the mill
tary establishment, the effective op-
GRAFTON 0f the military forces or the
maintenance of the national interest
during the emergency for the purpose
of prefeIring those industries as out
lined in section "A, Regulations. Ex-
cept for the necessity of seeing to the
retention of administrative or me-
chanical specialists, it is not thought
that the present draft will so materi-
ally affect the gross labor supply of
any industry, considered nationally,
as to warrant any general adjustment
of labo,' supply in favor OF some in
dustries and at the expense of 9TH
ers. FoA' this reason it is not deemed
best TO make statement Of preferred
industries at this time. Such adjust
ment as may be necessary locally will
be made by the district boards after
consideration of the industrial situa-
tion in their localities. Second: The
issue of fact as to whether any in
dustry is engaged in work necessary
to the successful operation Cf the mil
itary establishment is capable of be-
ing determined locally by affidavit
proof or inspection by the district
boards as to whether particular i'll
dutsries are SO engaged ought not to
be answered by executive depart
ments in Washington. Third: In
short, the cases in district boards
present local industrial problems
which can and ought to be solved by
those boards on information availa-
BILE to them in their locality.

BOW LE VALLEY LAND
HAS GREAT FUTURE

COURTlLAND, Aug, 23.-Prospect
of future development in the Bowie
valley was indicated at a state land
sale recently completed of tracts in
the vicinity of Sulphur Springs and
San Simon.
This was especially noticeable
when the land in township IA, range
29, lying south and west of San
Simon, was offered, and in many
cases was bid to several times the
appraisers value by Pomona men,
whose object, it is said, is to form a
Dunkard colony in that vicinity and
plant a large acreage of French
prunes and other deciduous fruits.
Fresno county, California, bidders
were successful in securing about 49,
900 acres in the two valleys, large
portion of which will be improved in
the near future by successful Cali
fornia ranchers.

TRANSPORTATION FOR
NEW NATIONAL ARMY

Plans for the movement of over a
million men-the largest troop move
ment in the history of the country
are now being perfected by the Amer
ican Railway association at the re-
quest of the United States govern
ment. Altogether, $4,000 men will
have to be transported to the various
cantonments now building to house
the new national army, and 100000
National Guardsmen are even now be-
ing assembled at their camps.
The movement will start about Sep
tember 5. Between that date and
September 9 the roads will complete
the entrainment of 100000 men, or
about 80 per cent of the total to be
moved to the camps.
1t is expected that a second move
ment of another 100000 will begin on
September 10, continuing for four
days thereafter; and a third move
ment of the same size will start on
October 2.
An idea of the task in making out
schedules that will guarantee the safe
and prompt transportation of these
armies may be cleaned from the fact
that, to move merely one field army
of $4,000 takes 6,229 cars, made up
into 366 trains, with as many locomo-
tives and crews. And there are over
twelve times as many men concerned
in the plans which are now being
worked out.
The railroads have also been asked
for transportation to carry the 100000
members of the National Guard to
their training camps. The National
Guard movement has already started
and will continue in increasing vol
ume until all have been moved.
Shippers and receivers of freight
have been appealed to by the car serv-
ice commissions, and can greatly help
if they will cooperate with respect to
commercial freight, keeping in mind
the herculean task the roads are per-
forming in handling this enormous
traffic.

You can't beat "ss" Sorey at short
He gets 'em both coming and going,
and, while he is the hard-luck hitter,
he very seldom is struck out
Brandt was fortunate many times
last Sunday. 1t was just his luck to
have nobody on the bases when he
made all those wild pitches And he
sure did make a few
Would you say that was home
run that Tobin made last Sunday in
the first inning when the ball was
thrown away twice? At least, he
stopped running the bases until he
tagged the home plate
Dad" Carish couldn't just figure
what it was all about Sunday when
the boys started throwing the ball
away. He probably found out and
told the boys something before they
got home that night, though.
Bromley had his good eye in last
Sunday up to the seventh, when the
Millers found him for four hits. In
the next frame the odds were against
Jack when Mcdonnell bounced a long
fly over the fence and caused two
runs to be scored.
Delhi played his first game in the
grand stand in Ray last Sunday, he
having been released by Hester when
Ryan arrived. Del has developed in
to high-class engineer, and it is
doubtful if he will do much ball play
ing in the future.
General" Nicodemus DeMaggio,
the star .outfielder of the Tri-Copper
elague, can't seem to be satisfied with
single anymore. The last two
games he has practically won by heav-
ing the ball into the woods for three
bases. Alta boy, "Knick!" Hit 'em
some more!
Jack Ryan, the ''invincible," as he
is known in the Coast league, arrived
last week and was seen in action the
last two innings Sunday He ap-
peared to have something all his own
on the ball and sure got out of a
tough hole in the ninth.
One would think, after watching
the last half of the first inning last
Sunday that the Mill boys were in
contest to see which could throw the
ball the farthest. Westerzill made an
excellent long-distance and high
throw over the first base, but was
completely outdone by Galena when
the latter heaved the pill from the
base
The big question is, When is a ball
a strike? Anderson failed to send
Tonneman down on the fourth ball
and even allowed Tony to tell him
what bum umpire he was because
he called it a strike. The next one
delivered caused Tonneman to be out
at first base, and then Anderson told
Tony that the first strike was really a
"ball" and that he should have gone
on down to first.
