MESA MAY NOW GET
 BIC MORMON TEMPLE

MESA, Harch 4.-Mesa stands a strong chance of securing a $200,000 temple erected by the church of Latter Day Saints. At meeting of the of ficers of Maricopa stake held on Sun day afternoon, it was decided to pre- sent the claims of the Salt River Valley before the general conference of the church to be held in Salt Lake City in April, at which time will be discussed the matter of the erection of a temple for the southwestern portion of the country.
 At this meeting it was stated that southern California, Thatcher, Ariz., New Mexico and other places through out the southwest had withdrawn in favor of Mesa. While in this instance the temple may cost a little less than S20O. 900. none built thus far either in the United States or Canada have been erected for less than the sum named.
 The Mesa delegation will go after the proposed temple with all their energy, and there is at least a fair chance that they will be successful. Should the town secure the building, work probab- ly would be begun on it not later than the coming fall.

As result of this move he srtuck the rear end of a car standing on the east side of the street which in turn struck another. and the bump went down the line until four of the cars standing at the curb had been knocked together.
 The Dawson car was the most seri- ously damaged, having lamps lenders and radiator smashed.

ID GIVE CLEMENCY
 ID SOLDIERS SENT
 ID PRISON IN WAR

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-Revision of sentences imposed by general court martial for offenses committed during the war is to be made by board of officers constituted in the office of the judge advocate general of the army. Secretary Baker announced today that the result would be "a substantial re- duction of the sentences in nearly all cases, save those of the gravest char acter, or where aggravated circum- stances exist"
 The exact number of military pris- oners held at home and overseas who might be affected was not made known, but MT. Baker recently informed the senate that 22,000 trials by general courts martial had been held since the beginning of hostilities. Approximate ly 350000 other cases were heard, but as the charges were not of a serious nature, the trials were by special or summary courts.
 The cessation of hostilities and the return to conditions approximating those of peace" said Mir. Bakers state- ment. render it just and proper that clemency be exercised towards prison CTS convicted by general courts martial for offenses committed since the begin 1 ming of the present war.
 With this end in view, a board consisting of officers of experience ir civil as well as military life has beer constituted in the judge advocates of flee to examine the records of these prisoners and enable the judge advo- cate general to recommend to the sec retary of war reduction of sentences as the facts and dictates of justice ir each case may warrant. The comman- dants of the barracks have been in structed to forward promptly to the | judge advocate their recommendations as to each prisoner.
 such action will effect speedy re. vision of sentences to meet the changed conditions and will unquestionably re. suit in a substantial reduction of tn, sentence in nearly all cases save thos, of the gravest character or where az graHated circumstances exi1t-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The house bill providing for a reduction of fifteen billion dollars in war appropriations and contract authorizations, and mak- ing deficiency appropriations of s2s5,- 900. 900, was passed today by the senate without a record vote. It now goes to conference.
 With exception of approximately s11. 1.00o, 900 total, appropriations in the bill are for army and navy.rThe meas . ure repeals appropriations for war and navy departments amounting to $7,- 179.15s.s0 and cancels authorizations of $3,2z1, OPS 200. which officials of the two departments have said would not be needed.
 The senate in its brief discussion of the bill paid scant attention to the ap- rropriations and savings, most of the debate centering on the house provis- ion for a rratuity of S7,500 to the wid- ow of the late Representative Meeker of Missouri.
 An amendment by Senator Robinson of Arkansas to give the children of MT. Meeker, by a former marriage, the -grat- uity. was adopted, but later the senate reversed it's action after Senator Spen- cer of Missouri declared hat the Mis- souri representative had left $33, 900 life insurance $2o,00o of which was for his fom miunI cAi2areu-

Defeat of the measure was witnessed by crowds of women in the galleries, but | there was no demonstrations and dra matic incidents which have marked l previous senate votes on the question were lacking.
 Up to the last moment, managers of 1 the resolution expressed confidence of securing the one vote they needed. but 1 the opposition held firm.
 Immediately after the vote was an nounced, suffrage leaders issued state ments. prepared in advance, criticising the senate action and announcing that the fight would be renewed in the next ! congress. Supporters of the resolution generally predicted that success would be attained then.
 One Vote Too Few
 Twenty-four democrats and thirty one republicans voted for the resolu- ! aiO oh c and eleven republicans opposed it.

COLE SHAFT IF |.
 AND 4. |S CLOSED

BISBEE, Ariz.. Feb. 10.-The Cole shaft of the Calumet and Arizona mining company began discharging men today with an announced inten- tion on the part of the management to completely close the workings within a week. The depleted force will place the property in shape for an extended period of idleness. The married men from the Cole and the other employees among the single men are to be transferred to the Junction shaft of the same company and re- employed there. Approximately $50 men are affected.
 The reduction of 75 cents per day in wages, first notice of which was posted Sunday around the mines of the district was received quietly. There was little strike talk to be heard among the men affected, the majority appeared satisfied to return to the sliding scale during the period of de- precision consequent to industrial re- adjustment,
