DESERTION PLEA WINS DIVORCE
 FOR HUSBAND
(From Tuesdays Dailv.)


 A marriage pact which was effect i've for period of more than 25 years was terminated yesterday when Superior Judge Sweeney granted a divorce to Otto V. Miller upon representations by the plaintiff that his wife, Mrs. Leah Isabella Miller, had deserted him without cause. The Millers were married in 1895.
 The attention of the court for the larger part of the session of yester- day was given over to considera- ation of the action of Tony Bertozzi vs. Joe Valdrini and Luigi Collosl' The plaintiff and the defendants be- came entangled in the legal action through some misunderstanding which resulted after Tony and Lu1zi had entered into an agreement with Valdrini for the lease of the Valdrlni hotel on North Cortez street. The lease was cancelled few weeks aft CT it had been drawn up and the partners became involved in finan- cial difficulties. Judge Sweeney took the case under advisement at the close of yesterdays session.
 Suit to quiet the title of the plain tiff to five mining claims located in the Blue Tanks and Black Rock dis tricts was filed yesterday by Theo- dore Kalicn against John Chuk. The complaint states that Kalich owns the claims but that the defendant has some shadow of a claim against them which prevents the title being perfected, and the court IS asked to smooth the matter out.

MINER IS KILLED IN
 ROCK SLIDE IN U. V. MINE.

JEROME, Jan. 9.-Jose c. Velas- quez, B years of age and unmarraied, was instantly killed last night by the fall of a loose slab of rock in a stope on the 500 level of the United Verde mine
 This stopc is in boulder formation and a number of these had been shot down when Velasquer entered the stope to muck out. A flat slab weighing more than two tons had become loosened by the blast and fell a distance of twenty feet, catch ing the unfortunate miner as it fell and grinding him out of all semb- lance of humanity

HISTORIC PLANT AT CONGRESS
 IS ID GO
TIMES PENDELUM IS
 SWINGING THE OTHER WAY, AND THE HUGE MACHINERY AT THE OLD
 GOLD CAMP IS JUNKED.
CFrom Tuesday's DaiIYl

Dismantling of two 40-stamp quartz mills, six hoisting plants, and a huge tonnage of other mechanical equipment used when the Congress mine was in action, is now under headway. Rosenberg & Co. of Los Angeles have closed the deal for this adjunct to the property and it is stated that every article will be junIed. The work of demolishing these plants has started and will re- quire several weeks to complete. The old Congress railroad is to be put in commission for. hauling away this material and several hundred cars will be necessary for removing the came.
 The sale Is due, it is stated, to the fact that the plant is of primitive de- sign, and utterly useless at present, owing to long service, the first ma chinery having been installed as long ago as in 1885, when this mine en- tered on its wonderful production of gold. It was maintained steadily for over twenty years. It IS stated also, that if the Congress is revived, which seems quite probable, reduc- ton equipment of a more modern character world have to supplant the old methods, hence the disposition of the above works results as a matter of expediency. Otherwise, the phys ical features of this historic gold mining camp are to be preserved, and when the time for reviving ar rives ample accommodations will be in place, the company having scores of desirable buildings ready for inn mediate use. Every mechanical utii- ity at the Congress was propelled by steam power in the old days.

DEAI. CLOSED FOR OLD.
 GOLD MINES
COL. J. c. RANKIN AND CHARLES BATTRE TAKE OVER THE OLD McCABE AND GLADSTONE UNDER AN OPTION.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

It is reported from reliable sourc- es that the McCabe and Gladstone gold mines deal was closed late last week in Prescott on telegraphic ad- vices from New York City, in which Col J. C. Rankin and Charles Batre were authorized by Messrs. Turnbull and Chapin, the owners, to take pos cssion at once. The latter sellers, however, were to reserve that inter est known as the tailings pit, which had accumulated from the early re- duction of the McCabe ores, and es- timated to containaapprorimately 20,- GOO tons. This product is now being shipped to the Consolidated at Hum boldt, where recovery of gold values will be made by flotation
 These two old mines passing into the above hands, it is stated, insures their early revival, and in another sense the transaction is quite inter esting, for this reason: Mir. Batre IS the president of the Big Ledge, which nas a desirably rated unit in the Henrietta, absolutely determin- ed, on the same contact as the Me Cabe and Gladstone, all being situat- ed within few miles of each other. An intervening property also owned by the Big Ledge is the Gopher, pat ented, which mineral system con- meets with the Gladstone and Henri etta, all forming in short a contin- uous chain of mineralization in which like geological conditions ex- ist.
 It is not known what relation this deal is to have with the Big Ledge, in view of MT. Batre being princi- pal of this company, but is is pre- sumed that he and Col. Rankin are 10 operate independently The shap- ing up of the McCabe and Gladstone begins at once, with the latter group selected for initial operations. De- velopment for the McCabe is also being mapped out and inside of 60 days both of these famed old gold producers will again be in full swing.

STOCK INTERESTS DE-
 MAND SLASH IN TAX RATE.

PHOENIX, Jan 10.-An effort to
 secure a reduction in tax schedules
 which would materially benefit the
 cattle and sheep interests but which
 would deprive the state of thousands of dollars of revenue has been made during the past week.
 The whole matter of tax schedules has been gone into in an exhaustive manner by the county assessors who have been in session here with the state tax commission. Every oppor- tunity has been provided for the talk ing of testimony in support of the claim that the schedules should be decreascd. but it is hardly probable that any radical changes will be made It. is expected that the ses- sions will be brought to a close to- day without any action taken on the asked-for reductions
 Harry Gray of Coconino county represented the wool growers in an argument to show that the tax schedule of $7 per head for sheep was about as steep as could be met by the sheep interests, and that if anything this basis should be low cred.
 Lon Harmon, president of the State Cattle Growers association, presented arguments showing why the schedule on range cattle should be reduced from $50 head to some thing like $25 per head. Cattle showed. he said, that the growers were getting less than ever this year for range beef. Harmon was supported in this claim by Will liam Cook, Phoenix cattleman and by Frank P. Moore, Jack E. BarbeTI and E. II. Crabbe. members of thT state livestock sanitary commission

 'ere with the rights of bona fidc pro ducers, but there arc certain laxities in this law which should be elimin- ated in order to prevent a system of wholesale thefts which has been built up by certain interruptions per sons.
 In the case of these peddling priv ilegcs there is nothing in the pres ent law, it IS pointed out, to place re- sponsibility on the peddler as to the origin of the meat. The Arizona law should be changed to conform with that of other cattle states, it is con tended, in placing the burden of proof of ownership upon the person with whom the beef is found, where IS under the existing law the burden. of proof rests with the state.
 Additional teeth to the law might be provided by requiring that the hide of an animal that is offered for sale by the peddler must be attached 10 one of the quarters. thus aiding the inspector in proper Identification. The present law says that the slaughter must be verified either by an inspector or by two "disinterest- ed property owners Too often, It is claimed, these disiuterested per- sons are merely partners in crime with the pirate peddler. All the peddler has to do is to bring on his property owners and there is nothing more that the in spector can do about the case, even though he might know to a certain ty that the carcasses were those of stolen animals.
 Another alleged weak feature of the present law is that the destruc- ton of hides for the purpose of sub terfuge is punishable only as a mis- demeauor. In the opinion of the sanitary board this harbors a form of cattle stealing which IS as much of l crime as stealing by the carload 1 and should be punished accordingly.

 That Newman told him he expected to spend most of his time behind the bars was the statement made by D. W. Jones on the witness stand. Jones said that he met Newman in a Glendale res taurant after the shooting and shook hands with him offering any assistance if he were in trouble. He testified that Newman thanked him for his offer and made the remark which he repeated to the court.
 Among the prominent residents of Flagstaff who have arrived in the city to testify in the case is Judge Perkins, former presiding judge of the superior court of Coconino county It was in Judge Perkins court that John G. Yer kamp brought suit against Frank Hoe tor for dissolution of partnership and an accounting, a suit in which Perkins was disqualified and Judge Crosby pre- sided. The matter was later settled out of court and Verkamp replaced Hector l by Newman. It is said this was the beginning of trouble between the two men over sheep interests and one is
